The Ark is fantastic! I have used the Ark for all three services (day care, boarding, and grooming) for over 10 years and I am always extremely pleased with the quality of care my fur babies receive.

Fred - Chattanooga, TN

Staff has always been extremely friendly and helpful. Very responsive to requested changes. Dogs appear to really like their visits. They get excited when arriving for boarding.

Clyde - Madison, AL

The staff is so caring & loving, the facility is clean and comfortable. No more days locked in a kennel with little to no "free" time. Taz loves the Doggy Day Care. We travel and sometimes cant take Taz. Boarding is just a long doggy day care day and he is lovingly cared for. LOVE LOVE LOVE everything!
