This is such a good place to take your dog!! My girl was super super tired after camp and they…read moreactually know her. They're really good at putting your dog in a group they know that your dog will thrive in. I love that they don't judge based on breed. They test your dog first with multiple dogs to see their temperament. I also love the people there. They're sooo sweet and very knowledgeable. The interior is super super cute. The waiting area has a really cute painting and there's paw prints al over the walls. When you bring your dog in for the initial temperament test they show you around. And it's nice and spacious inside. Would 10/10 recommend this place to anyone! They get your dog nice and tired. I also love that they feed them and give them snacks through out the day. Which is very nice of them. We will be coming here for a long long time :)

Our Doggo loves DLOD. The staff are great, professional and kind. The original temperament test…read morethey did with our dog, indicated that she would thrive with a couple of the packs of dogs, so she gets extra play time. We utilize the daycare a couple times a month and the boarding a couple times a year. When we pull up she runs to their door, and when they let her back she will scurry to her favorite staff for tummy rubs that they will happily oblige in. She returns to us worn out! They no longer provide grooming. (Provided 4 starts rather than 5 due to it often being unclear the best way and times to communicate with them).

She was rescued from a situation where she was primarily outdoors so playing on cement or indoor artificial flooring seemed to be too foreign for her. But when we were recommended Dog Country Dog Camp and learned the dogs get to be outside on acres of fenced in land, we thought this sounded perfect for her. Indeed it was! Being able to be outside in nature with lots of room to run, roll around, dig, play, and even drink from a stream there was no competition. She can let loose and do long stents of zoomies across the land and has made some best dog friends. She returns exhausted and is snoozing and dreaming within minutes. She has been going to Dog Country Dog Camp for about a year now and it is still by FAR her favorite place in the world to go to. If we happen to be home when they come to pick her up and she sees the van pull up she pulls us to it. In fact, she loves Dayna and Zach so much she often doesn't even look back at us when they come, where we would have to force her to go into the other daycare places and try to ignore her sad eyes looking at us. This is such a HUGE relief to us and feel so thankful to them to take care of our girl. They are the most kind and loving guys who are dog people so you can rest assured your fur baby is in good hands.

I can't say enough about Adam and Barkwalk. Our previous dog walker decided to stop providing…read moreservice to our area and we needed to quickly find a replacement. Adam and Cary came out promptly and from the first phone call were incredibly professional and accommodating. We have an older dog and she immediately felt comfortable with Adam. I really appreciated his flexibility as sometimes our schedules would change at the last minute (or I would forget to notify him the evening before that a walk wouldn't be needed the following day). Adam was always gracious and accommodating. I also really appreciated how responsive he was to texts and emails. He was also wonderful about coordinating walks around showings when we were in the process of selling our home. We recently left Highland Park and I know that our dog is going to miss Adam terribly. Barkwalk provides exceptional service.

Meg offers practical, reasonable advice and it is obvious that all of the staff really care for the animals. Highly recommend for anyone looking for help with their training.

I was so close to cancelling my trip altogether when I found out about Andrew and Irving Bark from a family friend. The facility is very dog friendly and conveniently located to me and I would imagine most of the city. I love love love that Andrew lives on site since he's always nearby the dogs and they are never really alone. I also love how he is near the emergency vet in case of emergency and right across from a pet store in case I drop the babes and forgot something last minute. The facility is very nice and dog friendly, its doesn't have unnecessary frills and the yard outside is so nice and completely fenced in. My Pomeranians got their own room and I was allowed to bring their fave beds and even their stroller and Andrew and Margaret took them on a stroll at my request as not to mess up their usual routine too much! They sent my husband and I daily updates and pics and always had a camera on the pups so they can watch them from anywhere. I loved that so much. Their special meals were all given on time and they got lots of exercise in the fenced yard. One of my Poms is very very anxious and scared of people but by the time I went to pick him up he was cuddling with Margaret and almost didn't want to come with me! One of my Poms is very fragile 3 lb elderly guy and they were so gentle and careful with him, even more than I would be myself. My babies were so well taken care of, I am confident I will use Andrew and Irving bark ahead of all of my other sitter options forever. Never have I taken a trip and had such peace of mind that my dogs were well handled, safe and most importantly, HAPPY! Can't say enough good things about Irving Bark, Andrew and Margaret.
