This was our first time using a pet or house sitter and the bar set by Leslie is very high! She is warm, friendly, communicative, responsible and very clean. Upon arriving, she immediately bonded with our rat terrier, Oreo, by bringing him a new frisbee (his favorite toy/activity) and throwing it for him in our backyard. Leslie has a sweet and mellow dog, Benny, who is now Oreo's new buddy! She kept my husband and I updated via texts/pictures of their daily activities, our house, and was proactive in asking questions before she left. She even dropped our dog off at the kennel for one night at the end of our trip since our flight was too late for us to get home for him! Our home was clean and had fresh flowers from our garden that she put in vases for us! Such a simple and nice touch! We have asked Leslie to come back to sit for us again for 2 weeks in August. I'd highly recommend her to take care of your pet(s) and home too!
Angela did a great job caring for Willie for 10 days while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with and kept us informed about Willie, along with sending photos of him out on walks and at the beach. Angela was very accomodating when we needed to come home a day early - Thank you! The house was left in good shape and it's clear that Angela is organized and reliable and clearly loves her pet charges. I'd recommend Angela and will definitely include her as one of our top sitter choices in the future! Thanks again, Angela!
Not only did Krista take great care of our cat while we were away, she left the house cleaner than she found it. She also kept in touch with occasional photos and videos of kitty antics, which gave me peace of mind that the cat was well-cared for. We definitely recommend her as a house and pet sitter and would ask her again in the future!
Angie and Joe have been our go-to pet sitters for our dogs, Cooper and Kona, on multiple occasions, and they consistently deliver exceptional care. Each time we've entrusted our pups to their care, Angie and Joe have gone above and beyond to ensure their well-being. Their genuine love for animals has always left us worry-free and able to fully enjoy our time away. Cooper and Kona's excitement whenever they see Angie and Joe speaks volumes about the bond they've formed. We sincerely recommend Angie and Joe to anyone seeking reliable and caring pet sitters.
Hanna did an excellent job sitting Molly, Eddie, Jasper, and Miley. She communicated well, took notes on our initial meet and greet. She went out of her way to help us get the dogs to a kennel when we experienced a family emergency and could not extend her sit due to work commitments. The dogs loved her and the shy kitties came out of greet her mid stay. She left our home immaculate and well cared for. She is truly a winning pet sitter in our eyes! We hope she can come again sometime.
Rachel was an excellent pet sitter for my cat. She was a good communicator and also kept my place very tidy. She even left me a gift of a bar of chocolate upon her departure! Highly recommend.
BriAnna was our first pet sitter and we loved her :). She made every step very simple for us, communication was great, Pastis and Anubis seemed to be very happy with her, and the house was very clean when we came back. We highly recommend BriAnna to take care of your pets and we would love to have her back!
David was an outstanding house/pet sitter for our active pup Tosha, older kitty Rascal, and 4 chickens. Rascal came home with a deep, gaping wound the day before we left for 11 days, and David was very responsible in monitoring the healing process with photos and texts to us. He exercised Tosha in the neighborhood and local parks, and obviously enjoyed her company. Our house was spotless and extremely neat when we got home, which is always welcoming after a long trip. We are very grateful for the excellent care David gave to our precious pets and home.
Milly was a lovely house sitter and I’d highly recommend her. She submitted a really great application and after a FaceTime chat it was an easy decision to choose her for our sit. She is the youngest sitter we’ve chosen but she has a maturity beyond her years and it was clear she had so much experience with animals that we felt confident leaving her in charge of our menagerie. Olive our young Pom has never been left with a sitter before so we were a little worried about how she would be but Milly was so patient, gentle and kind that she quickly won Olive over. So much so, on the morning Milly was leaving ,Olive would only let Milly put her harness on her before going for a walk. All the animals were perfectly cared for while we were away and we returned home to happy pets and a tidy house. Milly’s communication from our first contact and right through the sit was great and she even sent a lovely video of the dogs having fun on their walk. I’d have Milly back to housesit for us again anytime.

This is a great place for you to keep your animals however, I noticed that the owner of the business treats her employees like dirt. I’ve overheard her cussing out employees and because of her unprofessional behavior I will not to keeping my dogs there anymore. I just wish that the owner of the business would treat people the way they deserve to be treated :(
Have been taking my pup there for a couple months for daycare and have also boarded her there when I have travelled. She absolutely loves it. The staff has been great - always friendly and excited to see Rose. I am very comfortable dropping her off knowing she will be cared for and have a good time!
I would highly recommend boarding your furbaby at this place . They care for your furbaby like it's their own. Great, friendly trustworthy staff 🥰🐾my girl has a fun time playing with other dogs her size …
I have had a wonderful relationship with Bark Central for years now. Both as an employee, and now a groomer located inside the building. Something that sticks out to me about Bark Central is how much they clean- more than any other kennel I have worked for. The play yards inside and out are cleaned thoroughly. My dog Vera has attended since she was 8 weeks old, she is now 5 and has wonderful social skills with all kinds of dogs. Now I have Sassy who is 6 months old, and very hard to tire out. When she goes to Bark Central, by the time we get home she’s ready to cuddle up on the couch with me. I always tell people that the same way we need socialization- dogs do too. Would recommend to anybody with a social dog!
Bark Central has been absolutely wonderful for my mini dachshund! He has made friends with the other little doggies and he gets so excited when we pull into the parking lot to drop him off for a day to play! The staff is always friendly and caring to my little buddy! He has even stayed several times for boarding and come back refreshed, happy and can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend!
Great friendly staff, good prices. Our Beagle puppy has never been around many other dogs and she is extremely shy with any dog bigger then her, and she is tiny lol. The staff here took the time to introduce her slowly to other calm dogs of various sizes to make her feel at ease! This made is as dog parents feel very confident in their love of the animals. She had a great weekend stay and we will definitely bring her back when we need a great place for her to hang out with other dogs. Thanks again to the wonderful staff here!
My dog has boarded and daycared at Bark Central once a year over the holidays when we visit family nearby. The staff is quick to respond and has gone above and beyond to accommodate us. One of the things I've really appreciated is the clear pricing, instructions, and vaccine requirements on the website. They've offered sweet holiday perks, like a special holiday meal or pictures; those perks make it easier to be away from our dog on the holiday. Our dog seems happy with the experience, from what we can tell.
Absolutely lovely. Everyone who works here is so kind and down to earth. It's clear they all love dogs. I dropped my puppy off for her evaluation and she was so happy when I came to pick her up! They even remembered her by name when I came to drop her off for boarding! And she was so happy to see them! They are also very thorough about shot records, so you know your dog will be safe. There are also lots of extras you can get your dog. I dropped her off for 5 days and I got her doggie ice cream, a walk, one on one time and grooming services for every day. Over all I am very pleased with this place. There are not a lot of places I would trust with my baby, but I definitely recommend and trust this place!
We arrived in the Chambersburg area with our dog from out of state on a hot Sept day. We were in a panic, needing to get to the hospital for a family member, with no safe place to keep our dog. The idea of sitting in the car with him taking turns going in and out just wasn't gonna work. I contacted Bark Central after reading their reviews on line and they were fantastic. We arrived to find a very clean and pet friendly environment. The staff recognized my stress at leaving our dog along with our need to expedite the process and get to the hospital. They were very friendly, quickly completed the necessary paperwork, asked all the right questions to ensure our dog a productive stay, and then worked to calm my nerves. My dog had already took off to check the place out. When we arrived back to pick him up he seemed happy, had been in the pool, and jumped right in the back seat and went to sleep. He's been sleeping all evening. All that spells success. Thanks Bark Central!!! Next time through we'll be back for sure.
We used the day camp here while exploring the Gettysburg Battlefield and our 2 labs love this place. The staff are friendly and helpful and the facilities are very nice! If you are in the area I highly recommend it.
