This is the best daycare in Calgary, my dog is so excited to go every time… And so tired when he comes home. The care and the attention they provide its top-notch. If you’re close to the downtown core, you have to go to Central Bark.

Our 9-year-old grand puppy loves going to this well run and inclusive daycare. The staff are awesome and always treat us and our dog like family

Thank you so much! My pup, Odin, had such a wonderful first day at Central Bark! We loved seeing the pictures and the videos. I definitely recommend this doggy daycare!

I love Central Bark Doggy Daycare. I have worked with Kim and her team on a professional basis for a number of years and from a personal standpoint have actually been to numerous puppy birthdays that friends have thrown at this facility in addition to fun community events that have been hosted by Kim. I highly recommend Kim and her staff here, your dog will have a great time and make lots of friends, both furry and human

We have been using central bark since they have opened. Our guy is a little finicky, but they have always gone above and beyond to ensure he is comfortable and his needs are met. Central Bark is the only place our dog is so excited to show up to! His excitement on drop off is next level. Thank you central bark

Hands down the best spot for doggy daycare that we’ve found in the city. Clean, tons of stimulation for the pup, and the staff are all super humans who love hard on your pups!

I have been using Central Bark's outdoor private rental park, and it's been a fantastic place for my pups to run freely! They always have a great time, and it's nice to have a private space like this in city center:)

Today was Deckards first appt for a groom at Central Bark. Deckard is an outdoor dog and has a very thick undercoat. He had acquired a bunch of burs and needed a good cleanup. He is pretty happy wit hhis spa treatment and smells awesome.

Central Bark and Becca did an outstanding job of trimming our French Bull dogs nails. Would highly recommend to any dog owner.
16 March 2023 21:46
Central Bark is by far the best place we have ever had our Sheepadoodle Otis groomed. Maia does an amazing job each time we bring him to her. We frequently get stopped in the dog park by other owners wanting to know where he gets groomed. If you are looking for someone who can cut your doodle in a non-poodle fashion Maia is your gal!

Fantastic doggy daycare. Lots of outside and inside playtime. Charlie starts wagging his tail as soon as we pull up. Would not leave him at any other daycare.
P.s. You get photos and videos everyday!

My 4 month old puppy, Archie, had a blast at his first day of daycare! He loves making new friends and playing with everyone. As soon as we got home he fell asleep, it’s great for him to work off some of his golden retriever energy and on the plus side, I got lots of work done knowing that the kid is safe and well taken care of!
29 January 2023 22:44
The staff are incredibly friendly and love the all the dogs. My dogs are exhausted when they come home. Bentley and Panda both love it there and I highly recommend Central Bark Doggie Daycare to anyone asking looking for a safe fun environment for their fur family!
13 January 2023 1:42
Great location, super easy to get in and out and the service is beyond friendly and top notch! My pup is pretty shy and they do such a good job interacting with her to make sure she's comfortable and happy during the grooming experience. I strongly recommend taking your dog here for a groom or for daycare services! You and your fur-baby will be so happy you did!
31 December 2022 19:47
Central Bark is amazing - this is by far the best grooming service we’ve ever had for our senior mini-goldendoodle. Very professional and great with the dogs (and their humans). Big shout out to Maia! She takes such good care of our dog, and helps him look and feel his best!
20 November 2022 1:41
These last few weeks I have had the privilege to drop my dog off at Central Bark.
Meika has has the best time. Making lots of new friends and then come homes ready to sleep.
Thanks to the amazing staff for loving my dog like she was their own.

The fact that she could go to the off leash dog park and run while getting fresh air.

Thank you so much. We can’t wait to be back.

Nikki and Meika.

My pups second time at Central Bark and he RAN into the back room he was so excited to go. 1st visit he was nervous with it being unfamiliar and after going once he already loves it! Outdoor play time & the interactions with the staff is so great for downtown daycare! Full report card with pictures & videos of the day he had is a great way to gauge how your pup is enjoying the day! So far highly recommend. Great staff aswell super friendly

Too small for my observations, didn't see grass. Just a place i walk by to get to Crowchild
05 September 2022 9:12
We moved and that meant finding a new groomer for our fuzzy monster (Lilly). 6 months in and we are very happy with the service at Central Bark; the groomers have been great and it’s been a very positive experience.

I can't say enough great things about this place! Every single time we have to bring our two boys Bowser and Remus down they have an absolutely amazing time and the photos we get are so beyond appreciated! Being able to also see them through the Instagram also gives my partner and I so much joy. Every member of the staff is amazing and they treat our two guys with so much care. Especially Remus he's such a shy guy but seeing how he's opened up with you all brings me so much joy.

I just brought our Corgi, Gus home from getting groomed at Central Bark and it was such a great experience from beginning to end! Becca was SO AMAZING with Gus and she did such a great job grooming him and giving him that sweet little peach butt. Gus was so happy when I picked him up. It was his first ever grooming experience and I would not hesitate to take him back again and again. Thank-you so much for taking such good care of our dog and for the wonderful service! We will be back!

I love this place! I had to house Freddie and Boba at central bark for a week because I went out of town. When I picked them up they didn't want to leave!
Staff was super friendly and caring. They were very responsive when I needed to contact them and when I had to check up on the kids.
Definitely would recommend this place!
22 April 2022 2:48
Poppy LOVES going to daycare at Central Bark! I love the Instagram stories, seeing her having fun with all the other doggos. The staff are excellent, Poppy is usually very shy with people but she gets so excited to see them. Couldn’t think of a better place for my pup when I have to be in the office all day!
18 April 2022 21:26
Great & friendly staff. Groomer was very knowledgeable and cared for my special needs dog. Listened to our needs. Have been looking for someone who can properly groom a schnauzer and we have finally found our forever groomer! Happy owner, happy dog!
02 April 2022 4:44
I'll give them 5 STARS every day of the week. She is a wonderful person and a wonderful groomer. She does the best for my Cocker Spaniel, he goes willingly when I leave him and within a couple of hours is ready to be picked up. The report I get from them is, that he is well behaved and calm.

Our French Bulldog Hippo has been going to Central Bark now for over a year and we couldn't be happier with the service and care this daycare provides for our pup. From day one all the staff have been super friendly and professional and it's clear they really care about all their dogs. The staff certainly go above and beyond when it comes to taking care of our pup. We get to watch our pup have a blast all day through their IG account and we always get photos/videos of his day through their online portal. They have an amazing facility with multiple play rooms and a huge outdoor area for the pups. They also have other great services like grooming, dog walking, dog reiki, dog training with the super awesome Hannah from 3 of Hounds, and professional photos done on special occasions. We are so lucky to have Central Bark as our daycare for our little guy. Thank you to Kim and all her amazing staff!

Took my pup to daycare here for the first time. Loved how they grouped dogs together with same energy, play together, had a walk and attention through day. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Thank you ️

I'm not sure what kind of sorcery goes on there, but they are the absolute best when it comes to curly doodles! My labradoodle is super curly, which if anyone owns a doodle, you know they can get super matted if you don't keep up with brushing. They always give such an amazing groom to our girl and she comes out looking fluffy and fabulous! Everyone I've come into contact with or spoken with on the phone is always so nice and accommodating, I recommend them to all my doodle owner friends!
27 January 2022 3:22
Our dog has been going to Central Bark for daycare and grooming for almost three years. Kim and the staff have been excellent since the beginning - our dog has always been well cared for and loves going there. They do a great job and go above and beyond - I highly recommend them!

We were looking for a centrally located doggy daycare to send our pup to when another pet parent gave Central Bark a glowing recommendation. The facilities and clean, the staff and friendly and truly care about the pups in their care. We really enjoyed the report card and instagram updates throughout the day where we were able to see our little guy making friends and having a blast. Our pup came home pooped and is looking forward to going back! Thank you to the awesome staff at Central Bark!
20 October 2021 16:09
Central bark is seriously the best dog grooming place ever.i’ve taken my dog to different places in the past, but no where can compete with central bark. They seriously have the dogs best interest at heart & they listen to exactly what you want for your dogs groom.i am genuinely so glad i found this place! I cannot say enough good things! Please take your dog here, he/she will love it.

Mica went for her first day at Central Bark. The instagram story updates are so wonderful! Seeing her play and interact without me there is a great comfort. The report card at the end of the day was also a lovely touch, it shows just how much the staff cares! I will definitely be back again soon with Mica, she was the happiest girl when I picked her up (also extremely tired).

I highly recommend Canine Bark Doggy Daycare. My pug had such a great day there, she practically had a smile on her face when we picked her up. The doggy report card was hilarious and it felt like we got to spend the day with her. The staff is so warm and they truly love dogs. Thank you Canine Bark Doggy Daycare for giving our pug such a happy, fun-filled day.

We found Central Bark after a bad experience at another doggy daycare, and we are so greatful we did!

The staff is wonderful! They work with the dogs on changing unwanted behaviour, they take them on daily walks, they send videos, photos and daily report cards, but best of all they give us peace of mind our fur babies are well taken care of! Piper absolutely loves this place, she use to throw a fit when I’d leave the room but when going to daycare she could care less I’m leaving.

Thank you for everything you do, and for being a great “second home” for Pipes!
19 May 2019 18:03
Fantastic doggie daycare facility! Very clean and convenient location with knowledgeable and friendly staff! My dog is a rescue/loner with a fair amount of timid, anxious and often anti-social behaviour but they go above and beyond to accommodate and work with her often quirky behaviour.

The report cards, photos, videos and comments are great and something that I always look forward to seeing.: D
15 May 2019 6:38
Great service! We were very happy with their grooming services and daycare. The staff take really good care of dogs and our dogs love going there.
12 May 2019 22:18
My pup came very content and sleepy from a day of fun with the other pups. Very friendly and helpful, extremely satisfied with our overall experience! They work on her obedience skills, like recall, paper leash walking etc. Love the videos/pictures and report cards after each stay
12 May 2019 19:16
The owner and staff is great with reinforcing and teaching new obedience skills. They also include informative feedback and suggestions at the end of day. They will give lots of love to your pup. I can tell when my puppy comes home because her energy seems more nurtured versus strung out (in comparison to her spending time at other day cares). They have a beautiful space too with great, balanced energy. They also offer exciting and relevant events such as DOGA! Their photo and social media skills are phenomenal too! I always receive print worthy photos with my pups daily report card. The staff and resident pooches are all amazing. You will not be disappointed.
10 May 2019 5:19
One of a kind daycare! My Toby even got a swim and an off leash walk! Where else would he get that luxury? !
They take guest relations seriously!
02 May 2019 0:34
I buy treats from Central Bark all of the time. I don't even have a dog, but I buy dog treats for my sisters dog and have found they have great prices compared to other places I have checked out. They seem to always have great new treats to try out as well. If I did have a dog I would bring it here as you can tell everyone there really loves what they do!
30 April 2019 8:41
Jud has never been to a doggie daycare that does so many activities with him. He loves his pack walks, and off leash dogpark and swim time. He always comes home happy and tired! The daily report cards, pictures, and videos are the cutest!
29 April 2019 13:49
Great location, amazing staff!
Our pup Higgins comes home happy and tired. He gets a variety of excercise and play time. There is a fun, inviting energy from the moment you walk in.
I highly recommend Central Bark.
24 April 2019 21:07
We had a whirlwind family tour in Calgary and depended on Central Bark two days in a row for doggy daycare. They really went above and beyond my expectations. On day one, they hand fed Lucky, trying to get him to eat his food. They sent me a daily report card with photos, videos, and comments. It was so nice to have peace of mind while visiting family that he was well cared for. I would definitely recommend them and would use them when in town again. We have one happy and tired pup.
19 April 2019 16:53
Our very timid, high needs dog does incredibly well at Central Bark. The girls really took their time with our dog and have dealt with our dog’s challenges very well. Love the report cards that come at the end of each visit, complete with videos and photos. Great location for those in Sunalta/West end of Downtown or those coming off of Crowchild via 10th ave. Can’t wait for boarding to become an option!
11 April 2019 21:51
Our 9 year old Newfoundland was in desperate need of a summer grooming. Central Park got him in quickly and took exceptional care of him, gave him lots of breaks and he looked just fantastic at the end. We will be regular customers! So happy to have them in our neighbourhood!
09 April 2019 5:35
Fantastic place! Our 22-month old goldendoodle, Amber, is very social and needs LOTS of stimulation, exercise, play, and cuddles. She gets it all at Central Bark, with wonderful, caring staff, expansive clean space, friends AND the outdoor: daily walk and off-leash, what can you ask for more? ! The report cards, photos and videos are wonderful - love it, so Amber will be back for more, on a regular basis!
06 April 2019 7:54
Our miniature schnauzer, Scout, loves Central Bark! She can’t wait to get into the building in the morning and has come to love the staff there. We love Central Bark for the peace of mind, knowing she’s getting a lot of playtime with her puppy friends in a safe environment. We also love the “report card” with pictures and videos throughout the day of all her adventures.
01 April 2019 23:29
I have brought both of my dogs to Central Bark. They had a blast and came home very tired each night! While a bit more expensive then some other kennels, I found this facility to be worth the extra cost due to the convenience of their location for those who work downtown, cleanliness and great customer service! At the end of each day i received a report card for my dogs that included many photos, videos and a write up about their day. It was reassuring to see these and know for a fact that they had tons of fun and received lots of attention!
01 April 2019 20:06
They are great with the dogs! By far the best dog daycare in the city! Highly recommended. I’ll refer anyone with a dog to this place!
