Barkside Boarding

Barkside Boarding is a dog boarding and daycare facility in Billings, Montana, at 4785 Middle Valley Dr in the Heights. It boards dogs overnight, runs daytime care, offers training, and can handle pickup and drop-off by appointment.

What it offers

• Overnight boarding at $30 to $40 per night
• Daycare, including puppy daycare
• Board-and-train and other dog training
• Barkside Bus transportation by appointment
• Flexible early and late drop-offs and pick-ups

What stands out

The Barkside Bus is the unusual piece. Many kennels leave both trips to the owner; here, transportation can be arranged by appointment. The hours are the other practical draw. The facility is open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. seven days a week, and it lists flexible early and late drop-offs and pick-ups, which suits shift workers and long commutes. A 6 a.m. drop-off works before a morning flight, and a 9 p.m. pickup leaves room after a late day. For owners whose dogs need both care and coaching, having training on the same site removes a second stop.

Boarding, daycare, and training in one place

Owners can keep one routine whether the dog stays a night or spends a workday there. Training is part of the mix, including board-and-train, so a longer stay can include structured work rather than supervision alone. Puppy daycare is offered as well, which gives younger dogs somewhere to go during the workday.
