The Barkfield — Luxury Boarding & Doggy Daycare in Cumming, Georgia.
A safe, supervised home away from home for your dog — with the peace of mind that your vet is always down the hall”.
At Barkfield, boarding and daycare aren't afterthoughts — they're a core part of what we do. The Barkfield offers comfortable climate-controlled suites, spacious turf-covered play yards, and a caring staff that treats your dog like family. And because we're also a full-service veterinary hospital, your pet has access to medical care at any moment — something standalone boarding facilities simply can't offer.
Whether you're traveling for the weekend, heading to work for the day, or just want your pup to burn off some energy, we've got you covered.
Boarding & Daycare Requirements
To ensure the health and safety of all pets in our care, the following requirements must be met for all dogs participating in daycare or boarding:
-
Vaccinations: Dogs must be current on Rabies, DHPP (Distemper/Parvovirus), and Leptospirosis vaccinations.
-
Parasite Screening: A current negative intestinal parasite screening is required.
-
Age Requirements:
-
Dogs must be at least 16 weeks old to participate in group play.
-
Puppies 13–16 weeks old may participate in day boarding, which includes potty breaks and supervised human playtime but no group play with other dogs.
-
-
Spay/Neuter Policy: Dogs over 6 months of age must be spayed or neutered to participate in daycare or boarding.
These policies help us maintain a safe, healthy, and enjoyable environment for every dog in our care.
Why Board at Barkfield?
Unlike standalone boarding facilities, Barkfield is a full veterinary hospital. If your pet needs medical attention during their stay, our doctors are steps away — not a frantic drive across town.
Every boarding guest enjoys supervised group play in our spacious daycare yard, several times a day. Dogs who prefer one-on-one attention get individual playtime with a staff member.
Our suites and standard rooms are climate-controlled, clean, and designed for your pet's comfort. Bring their favorite toys and bedding to make it feel just like home.
If your pet is on medication, our experienced staff will administer it during their stay — no interruption to their treatment schedule.
