What Reviews Say

65 reviews analyzed

BarkPark West enjoys overwhelmingly positive sentiment with 58 of 65 reviews being 5-star ratings. The facility excels in staff friendliness, communication (frequent photo updates and daily report cards), dog happiness, and cleanliness. A single serious safety incident (dog attack resulting in injury) represents the only significant red flag, though the owner provided a detailed professional response. The business demonstrates strong community ties with multiple repeat customers and staff members (especially Rebecca, Katie, and Samantha) receiving personal mentions. Value is considered good by reviewers, and the large outdoor space is frequently praised.

Worth noting

Dog attack/injury incident - miniature pinscher attacked by other dogs and lost chunk of nose with multiple bite marks found by vet

“My miniature pincher attend it there for some months and she was attacked and lost a chunk of her nose. I was informed that there were two staff with 15 and 18 dogs which I don't understand how you can manage 15 to 18 dogs with two staff and also with the vet checking my dog found other bites marks.”

Budget constraints preventing more frequent visits

“But alas my budget couldn't handle it (the prices are great by the way) so I had to find other options.”
