All new daycare and boarding guests complete a Meet & Greet Orientation before joining daycare activities. This visit helps our team evaluate your dog’s personality, play style, energy level, and social preferences so we can place them in the most appropriate play environment. The orientation fee is $46 per pet and includes a full daycare experience for the day.
Frequently Asked Questions About Bark VB Doggie Daycare
At Bark, we believe every dog is different, so we do not use a one-size-fits-all approach. Some dogs thrive in larger groups while others prefer smaller play circles or more individualized interaction with our team members. Our goal is always to create the best possible day for your pup.
Dogs are grouped based on factors such as:
- Size
- Temperament
- Energy level
- Play style
- Social preferences
Yes. Dogs are supervised by trained staff members who are knowledgeable in animal behavior and canine care. Our team actively supervises activities, social interactions, rest periods, and transitions throughout the day.

- Indoor playroom time

That’s completely okay. Not every dog enjoys large play groups, and we understand that which is why we created our Solo Sniffers Club. Created specifically for socially selective dogs who thrive with individualized attention, private accommodations, and one-on-one interaction with our experienced team.
