Frequently asked questions
What are the requirements before my dog can start daycare or boarding?
Dogs must be at least 4 months old and spayed or neutered if over 6 months old (per state regulation). You'll need to complete an off-leash play application and your dog must pass a free try-out day, where staff introduce your dog to the facility and other dogs to ensure a good fit. We recommend completing the try-out before your first boarding stay.
What should I bring for my dog's boarding stay?
You're encouraged to bring portioned-out food for your dog and comfort items like a favorite bed, blanket, or toy. If your dog is on medication, bring it in its original, unexpired packaging—we'll administer it at no additional charge, though we cannot give injections. If you don't bring food, house kibble is available for an additional fee.
Does Bark Yard have staff staying overnight with boarded dogs?
We do not have overnight attendants on-site. The kennel area is monitored 24/7 by cameras and a full security system with immediate staff alerts and an emergency evacuation plan in place. Dogs with special needs or requiring after-hours care may be better suited for in-home pet sitting.
