BARK U is a full-service dog care facility headquartered in King of Prussia, PA. It operates out of a 19,000 sq ft state-of-the-art facility designed by canine behavior and industry experts to provide a safe, fun, and stress-free environment for dogs. Offerings include dog lodging (with premium Penthouse Suites and options such as private play and medical care), daycare (including signature, enrichment, and puppy programs), award-winning grooming, professionally-led training (private instruction, foundational courses, refresher courses, plus “Lodge & Learn” options), the area’s largest dog water park, and even transportation services. BARK U is staffed around the clock with certified professionals, with an emphasis on health, safety, and transparency.

Beyond dog care services, BARK U hosts themed parties and celebrations, runs a nonprofit arm called BARK Uplift (focused on training therapy and facility dogs), and maintains an Adoptables program, caring for dogs onsite which are available for adoption through Scouts Street Smart Rescue. BARK U’s flagship partnership is with Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), supporting the ongoing needs and resources for their Facility Dog Program. To date, over $10,000 has been raised.

BARK U’s Adoptables program goes beyond traditional adoption efforts by fostering rescue dogs from Scouts Street Smart Rescue onsite. In this enriching environment, dogs benefit from supervised socialization with other dogs, individualized attention, training, grooming, and any special care they may require—all provided by BARK U’s caring, experienced staff who genuinely adore every pet. While receiving this top-notch care, the dogs are also promoted to BARK U’s clients, families, staff, and broader community, helping connect them with loving forever homes.
