Report
We used Barks as a super last minute boarding service. My main goal was to find a place that had someone on site with the dogs. This place does exactly that. When I explained that our dog suffers from separation anxiety, they assured me that if she had a rough night, they would personally go in and check on her. I was also able to see her on the cameras and watch her play with other dogs. They answered my emails while away and help put my mind at ease. Upon pickup, they called me to warn me she couldnt receive a bath because their pipes were frozen (ours were too) yet they still tried to clean

We received recommendations for this place and expected good service. However, when we picked up our dog we found that his elbows were bloody and there were feces along his back legs. It appears he was inside sleeping for an extended period of time and/or wasnt taken for a walk throughout his stay. Wouldnt recommend this place for older dogs.

Report
We have used Barks Bed and Biscuit each time we went away and our beloved dog always received such excellent care. Love that we could peek in on her any time through the camera. We saw the staff spending time and petting her, and then saw her in the playroom with the other dogs. The staff is wonderful and listens to your requests! Highly recommend if you are looking for a place for your dog to stay, BB&B is the place :) to call!
