Yes. We encourage all owners to bring their pet’s food from home to avoid any intestinal discomfort that may occur by changing their regular diet. We just ask that you individually pack each day’s meals with your precise measurements in Ziploc-like bags duly identified and with your instructions for feeding.
Yes, rest assured that that with your detailed instructions, we will tend to his/her every need. Our Pet Resort has Senior Dog Citizen Suites exclusively designed to accommodate our senior 4 legged guests.
Each suite is furnished with everything your pet will need, including clean bowls each day and a raised Kuranda bed for comfort. However, if your pet has a favorite bed or blanket, you are welcome to bring it!
Of course! Since we have plenty of toys for he/she to enjoy during their stay, personal toys will remain in their suite if they are joining a play group with other dogs.
Each item that comes in with your pet is inventoried and labeled, but accidents can happen! We highly recommend leaving anything breakable, damageable, or irreplaceable at home.
Guests lodging in accommodations without an outdoor patio will receive 4-5 standard potty breaks throughout the day. Guests with private patios will have access to their outdoor area for the majority of the day. We offer activities for all energy types, including extra potty breaks!

Lexi
Tucker always has a great time at Barking Oaks. He is excited to walk in the door and play with his doggie friends! Staff is very welcoming!
Jenny
Visited earlier this week and the facility is absolutely amazing! Your dog will be lucky to stay here.
Ashley
Enrolled my malti-poo in puppy obedience class. She has learned so much. Hansy has been such a great trainer!
Kathy
Everyone truly loves our animals. I never have to feel uneasy leaving them. They are excellent in everything they do.
Fran
I have a Shitzu who doesn't like to be groomed. Hansy and her staff have been so patient with him. After a few weeks of training with Lora, Honsy was able to groom him and he looks GREAT!
Susan
Barking Oaks is WONDERFUL....the absolute best place I've found to care for my furends; I can actually relax when I'm away instead of worrying about my boys!!
Christine
My grand-furbabies are so excited when they visit Barking Oaks. They deliver first class service to bath, care, and love them -- and me too!
Latese
Cocoa has learned so much confidence, agility stunts and basic commands! She is coming along so well!
They treat all my dogs with care and compassion and my dogs always look so handsome after their bath (and smell good!)
