Not everyone understands what your pet means to you. They are a part of your family, so treat them with the love and respect they deserve by letting them play their day away at Bark Avenue Omaha. My dog, Crosby, goes to daycare here two days a week and absolutely loves it! All the attendants know him by name and are just as excited for him to be there as he is to be there. He also gets his grooming done here, and we couldn't be more pleased! We've decided to upgrade our webcams, and add new cameras outside!

They have been great with my dog on every visit so far. My dog has stayed there close to 10 times now in the last couple years. He's always happy to go and comes out super happy. I wish there was more online camera time to check on my dog randomly when I want but it's not a big deal to me and certainly doesn't impact the care of my dog. Staff is always super friendly and my puppers is always excited to see them on arrival.

I have been using Bark Avenue for the past 5 years in Omaha to lodge and entertain Rex and now Lokai, the Siberian Husky. It was Lokai's first time at this dog hotel. He casually strolled in and made himself at home by going to the back area where the employees are at and grabbing someone's chew toy in his mouth and reclined in the dog bed on the floor.
That was a great sign that he wasn't afraid of new places and I could leave him here for a few days while out of town for the weekend. Rex was a group leader at this place before he passed. His last visit was just 3 months before his illness and the employee told me Rex stopped 2 dogs from fighting during a play time period. He then led a group exercise session with other dogs by himself which was witnessed by the employee who reported this story to me.amazing to my ears but not really surprised since Rex also facilitated group outdoor meetings by standing on the picnic table while other dogs listened to his talks at the last resort in Sioux Falls.
The only reason I know this is because I saw pictures of this taken by staff members who remarked about this phenomenon. The Bark Avenue facility and staff are very caring and treat all animals as their own. There is no need to look for another dog hotel when you have this facility in town.

My dog Poppy absolutely loves going to Bark Avenue. When we first moved here we tried a franchise doggy daycare and didn't have the best experience. I did some more research and found Bark Avenue. I called the office and spoke with Natalie about my concerns with the previous daycare and immediately after being on the phone with her for 5 minutes I could tell Bark Avenue was going to be such a great fit.
They are so knowledgeable, friendly, and truly love dogs and take such amazing care of them. I even got to take a tour of the facility which was pretty cool too! I feel at ease knowing my dog is taken care of, loved, and happy when we're busy with work or if we're out of town. Poppy has her first boarding weekend coming up and I feel at ease knowing she's in good hands.

We took our dog Truly to Bark Avenue the entire time we lived in Omaha. It was worth every penny. She was always excited to go and they took good care of her. They get to play so much when boarding overnight that she would always be tired for the next 48 hours after we took her home, which is great when you are tired from traveling. Our favorite parts were watching her twice daily on the playroom cameras and how everyone who worked there knew her! Lovely place for your dog to board or attend daycare.

I recently boarded my pup, Scout, with Bark Avenue for a long weekend and I'm very impressed! The facility is super clean and the staff is wonderful! This was the first time I've boarded Scout, so it was very important to book with a place that was caring and experienced. Bark Ave really delivered. Scout is very nervous in new places and around new people.
They recommended bringing her in for a half day of daycare to get acclimated - which I did and was a big help! I love that they have cameras and livestream so you can keep an eye on your pups in the playrooms! Scout was a little cautious the first day of her stay, but quickly warmed up to the staff and played with the other dogs during daycare. Again, very happy with Bark Ave! I'll definitely book with them in the future!

We love our groomer Angela at Bark Avenue! Our Coton and English Creme always get top notch care. Angela loves our fur babies and takes her time when grooming. My dogs are always excited to go to Bark Avenue, even our 'nervous' dog. Thank you for being an amazing business that provides awesome care to our dogs!

Bark Avenue has the best grooming in Omaha! I have an old English sheepdog with a very high maintenance coat and finding Lisa at Bark Avenue was a godsend. She does an amazing job with his grooming and her attention to detail is wonderful. He always leaves happy and looking absolutely perfect. Thank you, Bark Avenue! There's no one else I trust more with my pup.

Lisa S. is the best! I'm not entirely sure who is more excited to see who when we arrive. Lisa's knowledge & experience really shines when we see our Roxy girl for the first time. We are always so impressed how she found the cutest lil pup in there. Roxy comes to life after an afternoon at Bark Ave, well after a nap back at home that is. I know she is completely taken care of here and maybe even a tad bit spoiled, but who isn't with a day at the spa with great people who give you all of the attention? Roxy can be a handful, she fully believes that everyone is her best friend and she wants to show them all how much she loves them with all her heart!
Now this can be overwhelming for some, but not Lisa. Lisa's zen personality somehow gets Roxy to.sit! Ok, not just sit, but smile too? Yup, that settles it, Lisa S. Is the absolute best groomer my four legged furbaby has ever seen. Thank you so much for taking care of both of us as you also reasure me that she is is great hands.

We love this place to take our dogs. They are so great. My dogs have not come home sick or skinnier. Both happened at other kenneling places. She was tired but not sad or anything. They are good communicators and when we ran out of food they just took care of it. Great place for boarding, highly recommend. Michelle is wonderful and very professional.

Our dog loves going to daycare here. He started off here as a puppy and has loved it ever since. The great thing about daycare is that he gets to play and socialize with other dogs. The staff is personable and friendly. Michelle does a great job. One aspect about daycare that we love is that he gets a lot of exercise. By the time we get him home he is exhausted and ready for bed.
This is especially helpful in the winter months when we aren't able to walk him as much. I like that you can purchase multiple visits at a discount. This helps to keep the price down some. We haven't had the opportunity to board our dog here, but would consider it when the time comes.

My dog got injured while in their care over the Labor Day holiday. When we went to pick him up and take him to vet, he was paralyzed. We had to put him down and all Bark Ave did was offer to credit the stay (after we had already paid). Did not assist with vet bill, cremation cost, nothing. Didn't even send a card. They were very defensive and said it wasn't their fault and they called us to pick him up. We should have come sooner.

Bark Ave is a wonderful business with an extraordinary staff. We have sent our sharpei there for 2 years - our kids call Bark Ave "Dog Friend Store" and whenever our dog hears those words she runs out the door in excitement. As soon as we pull into the parking lot she totally forgets us and all she wants to do is spend her day with all of the doggy friends and the fun, caring staff.
She has a great time and Bark Ave often posts pictures of her on top of the slide or playing with her buddies. I know it's always a worry when you're sending a pet to a new place, but this is the best dog boarding we've ever experienced.

I travel frequently and they take such good care of my shiba when I'm gone. They always answer the phone when I call to check in on her or they call back the same day with a status update. It's obvious that they provide individual attention to my dog while she's there and they've even taught her some manners while she's in with the daycare group. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my pup at this point.

This place is the best! I take my 2-year-old cockapoo, Crosby, to daycare every Wednesday. He is so excited when I drop him off and it's reassuring that all the staff know his name! Wednesday evenings are pretty quiet at our house, as Crosby is usually worn out from the day of play. Highly recommend this daycare.

I needed a place to board my dog while i was visting from out of town so I called Bark Avenue to arrange a time to board my dog. I told the staff over the phone the time i was planning on dropping my dog off and sent my dogs shot records before hand. After driving 6 hours to drop off my dog at the time I discussed with the staff member the place was all locked up so i rang the buzzer outside the building.
After waiting 30 minutes nobody came to the door. So i was forced to find somewere else to board my dog last minute so i can attend my family reunion. I called Bark Avenues main office and never received a call back. I was really shocked about the poor professionalism this buisness displayed.

Pick up day is always the happiest for sure. Our Max and Bamboo were so happy to see us. They kept the empty dog food bags for us so that we know "they ate up"! Bamboo weighted exactly the same the day before we sent him here, he is a puppy, only 6 months old, he eats everything and he is hyper-energetic, but Max lost one pound in 10 days, for a 5-year-old Miniature Dachshund, and as his mommy, I awwed a bit, but I wasn't surprised, because Max is "socially awkward".
They prepared our dogs' personal belongings ahead of time, so the check out was pretty quick. Although, I was hoping I could just have 2 minutes to talk to anyone about, you know like, how were my babies doing, did they cause any troubles, etc. They have a daycare webcam that you can check to see how your dogs are playing with other dogs which is very considerate.
The application procedure in the beginning was not complicated at all, fill out forms and offer updated vaccination records, that's it. One very important thing that I have to mention at last -- after we finished check in at the front desk, I was talking real fast and trying to give all the female staff some final "heads up", I was all choked up and my husband was all tearing up.
I asked, "Do you think we can still stay for a while and walk them to their room, or do we have to stop right here?", one of the ladies said, "It's better that we take them away and you see them off, so that it's them leaving you, not you leaving them. They're having a vacation. You're having a vacation. Don't worry. They're gonna have fun, and you too." She was assertive and her answer was professional and that was all we need to hear at that moment. Thumbs up!
