Bark Avenue PDX - Portland, Oregon

We absolutely love Bark Avenue! The staff are kind and amazing people that love animals. We have an Aussiedoodle and he has been going to Bark Ave since he was a few months old. I've toured a few other dog daycares and Bark Ave differs because it doesn't have too many dogs, has an outside play area and offers kennel free boarding that has a worker there with them at all times. They also have an amazing grooming staff and are so good with all breeds. Their prices are very competitive and it's always my first recommendation for a tired or groomed dog. Thank you Bark Avenue for being part of our pack. Hugs, Elvis

I'm a client for a business next door to this place. Every time I come I hear dogs barking like crazy but last week it was something else. Dogs were barking non stop and some female was yelling at dogs to shut up (plus some other heavy language) so loud 🤬 that I could hear 🙉 it through 3 rooms. I'm a dog owner myself and I wouldn't want my dog to stay at a place where she gets winded up like that and than being yelled at. It's only what I can hear through 3 rooms, so I can only imagine if I could also see what is happening.
Something is happening that makes all dogs bark at once for such long periods of time.
I asked owner of the business where I go if it's just when I come and she said no , it's like that ALL THE TIME 😔
P.S. Thank you for your response. If next time I come I hear no prolonged barking I will delete this review. I'm mostly concerned with dogs well being. My dog has to be very agitated to bark for such extensive periods of time, so I'm concerned what happens to the dogs that agitates them so much

Sunshine is the best groomer we have ever had. My dog suffered a traumatic experience at Petco (she needed groomed and we were new to the state). Sunshine reassured us and has been amazing. We love this place

We started bringing our young dog here for grooming with a recommendation from a friend. He isn’t always easy to handle and can be difficult to understand for some people. Sunshine and the rest of the staff have been so kind and want to get to know him. They have noticed so many of his quirks and the best ways to work with him. Highly recommend for grooming and daycare. The other day I was in a difficult situation and when I called they were super accommodating and helped me figure out a plan with ease. Thankful for them!!

We have been following Bark Avenue from her earlier location to today.

Beth is great with our difficult dog. And works to get him in and out with minimum fuss and great cuts and loves.

Highly recommend!

Finally, a groomer we can fully trust and that our dog loves! Sunshine is so amazing. We have a 100lb Sheepadoodle and every time he has been groomed his cut is absolutely perfect, he’s SO soft, and smells amazing. Sunshine never cuts more than needed and is the best with matting, too. Thank you, Bark Ave!

I recently adopted a rescue pup that was in need of a haircut, and luckily my friend Jenny recommended the groomers next to her barber shop. I was a little anxious of the idea of being away from TumTum since we had been inseparable since he was adopted. Luckily everyone at this location was friendly and put my mind at ease. Not only that but Sunshine did the most amazing job on his haircut and gave great feedback about how he did during the appointment. TumTum was all smiles upon my arrival. Looking fwd to next time! ☺️

My dog Valerie loves going to Bark Ave for day care! She gets so excited to see her dog friends and all the staff and always comes home nice and tired.
