Meet the Business Owner

Scott P.

Business Owner

Scott Powers grew up in the Vermont countryside with no siblings or nearby neighbors. His dogs, including German Shepherds, Dobermans and lots of loveable mutts, were his protectors, his confidants, his best friends and his family. Through college he returned home and visited his furry friends, but his career took him to Atlanta in 2002.

After many years in corporate America, Scott pursued his real dream – combining his love for animals with his passion and talent for entrepreneurship. As he explored ways to make the dream reality, Scott met David York, the founder of Barking Hound Village. Realizing the doggie daycare and boarding industry was the path for him, Scott quit his job and went to work for David.

Scott purchased Barking Hound Village Westside in 2010 and later opened a location in Buckhead. In January, 2016 he began operating under his own corporate name, Bark and Board.
