Central Bark Aurora Fox Valley

Central Bark has been a saving grace for me and absolute heaven for my sweet boy, Otis. Mike, the owner, is amazing- offering flexible scheduling for daycare and boarding and being extremely accommodating. Mike and his team take such great care of my pet, and they always make sure to send me daily updates! I HIGHLY recommend Central Bark to my fellow dog owners. I never have to worry whether my boy is being taken care of when he’s there. You will not regret sending your pet here! Thank you, Central Bark!

My pup and I absolutely love Central Bark!! She was never very excited about going to her previous daycare, but here her tail is always wagging—especially to see Mike and the team. Mike is incredibly accommodating with my work schedule, which we truly appreciate. They take such great care of her that I never have to worry about a thing. And Lana, the groomer, does an AMAZING job—every detail of her cut was done with such precision, and I absolutely loved the result. I highly recommend Central Bark for both daycare and grooming!

My pup and I love this place! I have used them for both grooming and boarding. When I first arrived they offered me a tour so that I knew exactly where my pup would be. It’s clean and very well maintained. I love the messages and pictures they send over to let me know how his day was going. They also do a great job with grooming.

I’ve been taking my dog breezy (vizsla) not only for daycare but also training. Francesca is awesome at training and has breezy obeying and makes breezy use her brain both mentally and physically. I highly recommend her. Mike runs a tight ship and has one of the best daycare’s I’ve been to. To everyone who reads this you must check it out.

A huge thank you to Central bark for a fantastic grooming experience! My dog, Ryder, looks and smells absolutely amazing. The online booking process was incredibly easy, and the staff is so friendly and caring. The absolute best part is how efficient they are - no waiting around for 6 hours like at other places. If you're looking for a reliable high-quality groomer, look no further!

My wife and I have long wanted a family dog, but we are out of town many weekends and we travel quite a bit. We have been very hesitant to get a dog as a result, until now! I took a tour of Central Bark and met the owner Mike today. I can't tell you how clean and organized the entire facility is. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff that were on their game. Beautiful outside areas for dogs to get exercise and socialize. And the rates are unbelievably affordable for everything you get!! I can't wait to get home and tell my wife the good news!! Have confidence taking your dog to Central Bark, great operation from top to bottom!

Central Bark did such an amazing job grooming Archie! They turned him into the cutest little boy ever 🐶✨ What impressed me even more was their incredible customer service. I had a very limited time window that worked for me, and the groomer actually came in early just to accommodate my schedule. That level of care and dedication is rare these days. You can truly tell they care about both the pets and the owners. Archie looks amazing, smells great, and came home so happy. Highly recommend Central Bark to anyone looking for a groomer that goes above and beyond!
