    Great daycare facility for dogs. My dog Ollie loves going to The Barkmont. The staff are great. They are friendly and truly love dogs. I am only comfortable leaving him with The Barkmont family when I need to have daycare for Ollie. Cannot recommend this facility enough. 10 stars - if that was an option.

    The Barkmont always makes sure to take care of my pup. He goes in and comes away happy as a clam! The cameras are a nice feature of transparency that allows me to peek into the daycare life which reassuring. Overall I’d recommend for folks who work during the day and need a some daycare from time to time

    After trying most of the boarding options in the east bay we have landed on Barkmont as the favorite. The staff I have interacted with have been lovely and genuinely curious about what my dog needs. Roz comes home happy and tired.

    The only reason I left off a star is the one time I went inside their lobby the smell was absolutely awful. I get it, there are dogs there but it seems like something could be done to mitigate that.
