Our dog Tahoe always loves her visits here! There’s a great small dog area. She loves it when the other cavaliers come.

The Barkshire is my dog’s second home! She is always so happy and excited when I drop her off there. She has a lot of dog friends, and she loves the staff. They truly care about her well being. The new owners are just as accommodating and kind as the former owners, and we have always had clear communication with them regarding our dog’s visits. I highly recommend the Barkshire to anyone looking for day care or boarding. Or both!

I have been a Barkshire client for over 10 years, full-time, with four of my dogs. I always brought my dogs here knowing that they were well taken care of. Based on my previous experiences through the years, I loved the Barkshire for my dogs.  However, the Barkshire is under new ownership/management as of May 1, 2021. As a result of the new ownership/management, one of my dog’s, who has been at the Barkshire since he was four months old (he is 5 years old now), in the last 3 months, developed an anxiety disorder due to a variety of problems because of ill equipped staff. One incident in particular was when a staff member put the handle from the leash around my dog's neck, causing him to choke, cough and gasp for air. When I called and emailed the owner to express my horror over the choking incident, she failed to respond in a timely manner.  The choking incident was not the only problem that occurred after the management/ownership changed hands.  Consequently, due to the continued inexperienced and negligent staff, I had to take my dog to a behaviorist for his anxiety.  In addition to treating with a behaviorist, my dog now requires a battery of tests and diagnostic protocols to determine the extent of damage done to his airway because of his persistent coughing and breathing difficulties that occurred from the choking incident. There were numerous other issues at the Barkshire since the change of ownership/management, which are extensive. The Barkshire's new ownership/management and staff have damaged my dog emotionally and physically, within a 90 day period. I was recently contacted by two other clients that also expressed concerns and issues with their dogs since the change of ownership. My experience with this owner is that she is absent from the day-to-day operations. She did not appear to be concerned about the numerous incidents I have experienced that required her immediate attention. Based on this new ownership/management, I can no longer recommend the Barkshire.

Nice facility. Care takers very sweet. Decent location. Might be a little pricey, but then it's your pet right!

Great group of people. Caring, responsive, organized and detailed oriented. We have been using The Barkshire, for daycare, for about a year now. Charlie seams to love it. (He is always eager to go in and see his friends.) My only two wishes - 1) the dogs played a little longer. (Charlie is high energy - and still has some energy to release when he gets home.) 2) the cameras were on longer and there wasn't a fee to access them on your mobile device. Other than that - we love it. I toured several other places and tried few before settling in at The Barkshire. Thanks Barkshire for all you do!

My dog has been coming here weekly for years! I absolutely love this place. They take amazing care of my dog, show me pictures, and tell me about how her day was every time we go. They treat my baby like she is part of their family.

My doggy seems to like it there and enjoys group dogging! The staff is friendly and caring. The price is reasonable and they don't charge extra for diabetic dogs. My doggy will board there again when needed.

Winston loves coming here. I have been taking him for almost 1 year and he goes once, usually twice a week. He loves being outside in any weather so I'm thrilled with their large outside area! All staff is friendly. I'd recommended to anyone!

Fantastic place to bring your 4 legged family members! Truly a "resort" for paws. Wonderful and caring staff, clean, love the cams, dogs have a lot of space to play ....closest thing to home...Dazee came home after a week at the "resort" a happy girl. Thank you, Barkshire, for offering such a great place for dog lovers....

I sent my husky here after getting told my dog runs too much by another day care center and feeling down about their constant complaints about how my dog had too much energy and was a handful. The Barkshire treated my pup like family day one and I never heard any complaints. It was one of the hardest parts of moving from Michigan, knowing that my furbaby would lose her barkshire family, and I will bring my dog back without hesitation if I move back to Michigan. If youre unsure, send your dog in for a free day, watch on the online cameras and take a tour.

Doggy daycare with boarding option. Doggy pool during the warmer months, and indoor and large outdoor play areas separated by dog size.

We love this place!!! Clean facility and the staff is so nice. We love the ability to check in our puppy on our phone/laptop. So lucky we found this place for the newest member of our family.

The second day that my daughter's dog came home she was extremely thirsty that indicates that they didn't take care of her as well as I expected

My dog was traumatized after coming to this kennel. We were already nervous about putting our dog into a kennel, but felt better after hearing they had webcams. We soon found out that the webcams are only on for about an hour a day. What happens when those cameras are off? After a long week of worrying about my dog, I came in to find my dog covered from head to toe in feces. He looked as if we just picked him up off the streets. When asking about my dogs time here, the lady working seemed to know nothing about it. If I could give 0 stars, I would. Will never return.

This place is awesome! Only place I would leave my dog! They know all the dogs by name and I have never met such an awesome caring staff everyone there rocks! Not to mention the Owner is super involved and loves the dogs just as much as the staff! The Barkshire is one of a kind (: Cruise loves you guys and Misses all of his friends two legged and four legged!
