Why choose boarding at the Barkmont?
Paws, Relax and Unwind
At bedtime, we provide a spa-like atmosphere. Aromatherapy and soothing music will help your
pup unwind and recharge for another exciting day.
More Than Just a Daycare
Get a spa treatment, stay the night, or learn something new. You can even customize your dog’s experience with add-on services such as walks or enrichment activities. The Barkmont is a full-service destination for all your dog’s needs—saving you time and ensuring top-notch care.
Boarding Hours and Fees
Although our facility is staffed overnight, we only offer boarding
check-in and check-out during lobby hours to ensure the safety
of our team and guests.
Check-In/Check-Out:
Our boarding service begins at a single-night rate of $95.

Additional services are available upon request.
Boarding Rates:
Monday-Friday: 7am-7pm
Saturday, Sunday and Major Holidays: 9am-5pm

You can check in your dog for boarding anytime after our lobby
opens for business.  We highly recommend that all dogs be dropped
off no later than 3pm, so they can enjoy some playtime before settling
down for the evening. 

Check-out for boarding is at 11am on the final day.

Dogs picked up after 11am will incur an additional daycare charge,
along with the boarding cost.
Lobby Hours:
If you need to arrive outside our lobby hours, please call ahead during
regular business time to make special arrangements.

Please note: We are not able to accommodate late pickups after 10pm.
 
There is a $30 fee per early drop-off and late pickup.

Example: Dave drops Spot off at 6am, and then picks him up at 9pm
the same day. Dave would be charged $60 ($30 per occasion).
Early Drop-Off and Late Pickup:
Because we are a boutique facility, we have a limited number of rooms
available for our guests. We ask that you review our cancellation policies
in the event your plans change and you need to cancel your dog’s boarding
stay at the Barkmont. For more information about our policies check out
our FAQ page. 


Non-Holiday Cancellation: For most of the year, you may cancel
your reservation with no penalty up to 4pm the day before your
dog’s scheduled stay. Cancellations that occur after this window
closes will be charged for one night of boarding.

Example: Dave schedules a boarding reservation for February 3rd.
Later, he decides he needs to cancel this reservation. He must cancel
his reservation by 4pm on February 2nd to avoid being charged for
a night of boarding.


Holiday Cancellation: Due to the high demand over the holidays,
we require a 100% deposit for major holiday bookings.

If the booking is canceled before the first of the month in which the
holiday occurs, the deposit will be fully refunded. We are unable to
issue refunds or transfer dates if the cancellation occurs after the
first of the month.

Boarding in Berkeley
Boarding your dog should be simple and stress-free. At The Barkmont Hotel, you can rest
easy knowing your dog will be treated like a VIP… or should we say VID, Very Important Dog.
 
They’ll be under the care of our expertly trained staff, receiving the personalized attention
they deserve.

Before becoming a guest at The Barkmont Hotel, we ask that your dog have
at least one introductory daycare session and one overnight stay before any additional
stays are booked. We want to ensure they feel comfortable and relaxed in our social environment. 
Get Started with
Boarding Enrollment

Each dog is required to go through an evaluation and a daycare stay before scheduling
a boarding reservation.  We care about the well-being of your dog. Because we want your
pup to thrive, we do not approve every dog that registers at The Barkmont. Just like people,
not every dog loves a social, active environment. Some dogs prefer a quieter setting, and
that’s perfectly ok!

1

Start by reviewing our requirements for vaccine, general health and evaluation information.

2

After reviewing the requirements, use our online registration portal to complete the necessary forms.
(Note: Dog vaccination records can either be uploaded to your account. Alternatively, your veterinarian
can send it directly to vax@the barkmont.com.)

3

Once you have registered and submitted your vaccination records, we’ll email you to schedule your dog’s evaluation.

Our primary goal is to make sure all dogs in our care are safe, healthy and comfortable.
Please do not hesitate to give us a call or email us if you have any further questions.

Happy Tails and Pawsitive Reviews
“We truly consider the Barkmont part of our dog family.
I am so thankful to have a group we can trust when we go
out of town to take care of our dog. She always runs right
into the door when we drop her off and comes home
exhausted from all the fun she has.

They are very communicative about policy changes and we
respect their choices they make to keep our dog safe.
With the increase in kennel cough this winter we were
nervous boarding her but they assured us they were
consulting with vets and made decisions to protect our pup.
We really like that we can see the dogs playing during the day
on the webcam and that they also seem to make good decisions
about when to put them in quiet time to nap.”

Why choose daycare
at the Barkmont?
Premier Dog Boarding in Berkley

Why let your dog be lonely when they can have
a day of friendship and fun? Playtime at the Barkmont offers your pup a day full of companionship and engaging activities to energize both their body and mind.

We believe every dog should have the option to play safely, interact with other dogs and humans, and explore the world at their own pace–without any unnecessary pressure.
