Affordable  doggie daycare, kennel-free boarding, emergency

&   long term housing services for  dogs & dog owners in need.

The Barksville Inn  was designed to be a cozy home away from home for all dogs.  Replacing the confined chain-linked kennels for a open communal living space to minimize canine anxiety.

Their affordable doggie daycare, cage-free boarding helps subsidize our long term and emergency pet care services for disabled, senior citizens, victims of domestic violence and families experiencing financial hardship.
