We absolutely LOVE The Barking Lot for our girl Roxy. She gets so excited to see the staff and has even jumped their front desk to go play. For context, Roxy is a rescue and was timid of people. She did a meet and greet before we began daycare and she loved them. Her reaction told me all I needed to know about these amazing humans. Roxy attends doggy daycare 3xs a week and has recently boarded with The Barking Lot for 2 days. She always leaves happy. If you are looking for a wonderful group of people who love animals, will always care for your pet like their own and you never have to worry about leaving them, this is your place

I left town and boarded my lab with the Barking Lot. It was his first time ever boarding so I was nervous, but my fears were put to rest! I got picture updates of him having fun with his friends! And when I picked him up he was in perfect condition. I will be trusting this facility again for my four paw family members

I Highly recommend the Barking lot! We used their service in October for a weekend trip. We don't have a normal dog that likes to play and be around other dogs, she is more of a people dog and she is getting old and just likes to be left alone and lay around with her people. We dropped her off and headed out of town. Sean actually sent me a text with pictures of her while we were on vacation letting me know she was doing great! When we arrived to pick her up she was in the front office with the people sleeping like a Queen with her own bed!

Shawn and his time here are the best! We have been using the Barking Lot for a few months now and they have been so good to work with and have taken such great of our Doberman puppy, Kooper. Before finding The Barking Lot, we were taking Kooper to another local doggy day care but they nicely asked us not to come back as they didn't care for the high energy that my 9 month old puppy was putting off. We understood but were also bummed. Shawn and his team greeted my puppy with open arms from day one and have always been so great and easy to work with. From doggy dare care during the day to overnight boarding, Kooper loves his friends here and we love the staff just as much! If you are looking for a great place to take your four-legged friend where you can rest assured they will be taken care of as if they were home, The Barking Lot is your place. Thanks, Shawn, and team for all that you do for us and Kooper. You making owning a dog and/or puppy a walk in the (dog) park!

I had an amazing experience with The Barking Lot! Even though they specialize in dogs, they took wonderful care of my cat for 2 months. The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive and loving - treating my cat like family. They kept me updated regularly with pictures and texts which really eased my mind while I was away. The facility was clean, safe and comfortable and I could see my cat was extremely happy and relaxed in their care. I highly recommend The Barking Lot to any one looking for trustworthy pet care. Than you for taking such great care of Jynx we truly appreciate it!
