No. The Bark Standard is being designed as a private membership club focused on canine fitness, wellness, enrichment, adventure, and community. It is not a traditional daycare or dog walking service.

The Bark Standard is for dog owners who want a higher level of structure, movement, enrichment, and care for their dogs — especially dogs who need more than basic walks or crowded daycare.

Membership may include structured fitness programs, treadmill and conditioning options, adventure excursions, wellness-focused services, dog and owner experiences, community events, and transportation options.

We are currently exploring locations near Manhattan and using founding member feedback to help determine the most convenient neighborhood for our first club.

Transportation is one of the services we are exploring for members. Survey responses will help us understand demand, pickup needs, and the best neighborhoods to serve.

Founding Members are early supporters who receive priority access to membership opportunities, launch updates, preview events, and potential introductory pricing before memberships are released publicly.

Refundable deposit opportunities may be offered closer to launch for those who want to reserve priority membership access. Any deposit terms will be clearly explained before payment.

We are exploring future crowdfunding and community participation opportunities. At this stage, we are gathering interest from our community and will share more details when appropriate.
