    We love Barks and Recreation! We have piece of mind whether we take our dog for an overnight stay or for grooming. He always returns happy! We highly recommend Barks and Rec for your pet's needs!

    I boarded my 1 1/2 year old puppy for one over night. The staff and facilities were very accommodating and I felt comfortable in leaving Biscuit there. She seemed fine when I picked her up and the dropping off and picking up process was seemless. They also have a wonderful groomer, Brie. She’s very good with Poodle mixes. I had trouble viewing the facility that has cameras for clients to watch their pup. Not sure if it was my phone or something I was doing wrong. Next time I’ll get some more help because it’s a great feature. I was able to see some of the rooms but I couldn’t get the small dog room to work.

    Maggie looks forward to her visit every time! she gets so excited I believe it’s because the staff treat her so well. Not to mention, she gets to play with her dog friends! Recently, I signed Maggie up for grooming.and they did a fantastic job ! I would highly recommend sending your dog to barks and recreation!
