We have always been extremely happy with the excellent service and care our pup Elio gets during boarding, daycare and grooming. Saturday was our first obedience training class and it exceeded our expectations. Kelly gave us some helpful training suggestions that we could not learn on our own. She was great! We look forward to continuing our classes as well as the other services Bark Avenue offers.

My dog absolutely loves Bark Ave. He goes 1-2 times a week and always comes back with his tail wagging and exhausted! I love that they get to know your dog and how he/she fits into the pack. Their dog trainers, especially Kelly, are extremely knowledgeable and professional. And the front desk staff go above and beyond to assist you with everything. We are so lucky to have found Bark Ave!

All of the staff I had encounters with at Bark Avenue are fantastic. It is clear they care deeply about the work that they do. Kelly is an amazing trainer and resource. She gave routine updates on my dog’s board and train progress and truly seemed to care about my dog as much as I do. I would recommend Bark Avenue to any other dog owners I know.
