What Reviews Say
236 reviews analyzedThe BarkMore Resort enjoys overwhelmingly positive reviews with an average rating of approximately 4.9 stars. Customers consistently praise the caring staff, clean facilities, excellent communication through daily report cards with photos, and the noticeable happiness of dogs who eagerly anticipate visits. The board and train program receives particularly strong endorsements. Minor complaints center on extra charges for playtime during boarding and occasional unfriendliness from front desk staff. A few isolated incidents involving health issues (kennel cough, rash) and one injury were reported, but the business responded professionally. The owner is actively involved and responsive. This is clearly a beloved community fixture with many multi-year repeat customers.
