CRATE-FREE DOG DAYCARE & BOARDING
Barksville Buzz
Now Offering Fecal Testing 💩
We’re excited to offer fecal testing for your pup’s health and safety! In partnership with Antech, the same trusted laboratory used by veterinarians, we provide fecal testing for just $70—a cost-effective option compared to most vet clinics. Fecal tests are essential for detecting intestinal parasites, which can be contagious among dogs. Keeping your pup protected helps keep all our furry friends safe! Drop off a sample or we can collect one during your pup’s daycare visit. Results are available the following business morning for quick peace of mind. Have questions? Let us know! We’re happy to help. 🐾

Plan Ahead with 24-Hour Reservations 🕰️
To ensure safe, crate-free care as our pack grows, we ask that visits be booked at least 24 hours in advance. This helps us maintain proper staffing and provide the best experience for your pups. Cancellations are quick and easy, and we also offer standing reservations for added convenience.

Sunday Hours for Boarding Drop-off or Pick-Up 🚗🚙
Sunday Boarding pick-up/drop-off is ONLY available from 10a-11a or 6p-7p. Appointment required. Please remember this is for the safety of the dogs. We are crate-free so we staff our lobby during these times so the boarding dogs are not left alone. We appreciate your understanding.
Our Philosophy
We strive to foster an environment that not only meets the physical and social needs of every dog but also ensures their emotional well-being. Our entire team is not only composed of passionate dog lovers with experience, but also hold certifications in Pet First Aid & CPR. This means that every member is equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to handle any situation that may arise, providing you with peace of mind knowing that your furry companion is in capable hands. With a keen focus on safety, we maintain a meticulously clean and secure environment, ensuring that your dog can play and socialize freely without any concerns. Our staff members are not only attentive but also trained to recognize and respond to the individual needs of each dog, whether it's a comforting snuggle, a stimulating game, or a gentle reminder to take a breather.
Our Services
We are proud to be a crate-free environment for both daycare and boarding at Barksville. This approach fosters a sense of freedom and socialization for our furry guests, allowing them to roam and interact freely throughout their play groups. However, we understand that every dog is unique, and there are situations where crates can provide a sense of security or meet specific needs. For this reason, we maintain a limited number of crates for instances such as managing aggression, facilitating feeding times, or accommodating dogs who prefer the comfort of their own space for sleeping. It's important to note that our dedicated staff members are present with all pups, including those boarding, at all times. Dogs are never left unsupervised, ensuring their well-being and providing peace of mind to their owners.
Our Facility
Our state-of-the-art 7,600 square foot facility offers a safe and engaging environment with indoor & outdoor play areas. We employ HEPA air purifiers, veterinarian-formulated kennel cleaning supplies, and environmentally responsible disinfectants, recommended by zoos and animal hospitals, to maintain a clean and healthy space. Whether it's a day of play or an extended stay, you can trust us to provide a loving, clean and secure home away from home for your beloved pets.

The Charlie Project Dog Rescue
The Charlie Project's Mission is to provide loving homes where dogs are treated like family and have a warm place to lay their head at night with responsible pet parents. Their focus is to educate the community on spay/ neuter practices to prevent unwanted litters. They encourage owners to utilize trainers & other resources to properly train and socialize their dogs, resulting in less shelter dogs. A large majority of their dogs are puppies. They insist, actually it's the law, that any adopted dog be altered! They also take in shelter dogs and owner relinquishments. One by one, if they all get altered, hopefully there will no longer be the need for shelters and rescues.
