Vet Care That Goes The Extra Mile
Located in Riverdale, NJ.
The Differences
We Make Vet Care A Walk In The Park
Urgent Care
Because life happens—even on weekends. At Bark Ave, we offer urgent care services to the general public, with several same-day appointments reserved for the unexpected (yes, even on weekends!). Whether it’s an ear infection that popped up overnight or a sudden limp on a Sunday, our team is prepped and ready for emergency situations and urgent procedures. You don’t need to be a member to schedule an urgent visit when your bestie needs us most—we’re here to help them feel better, faster.
Concierge Vet Care, Reimagined
At Bark Ave, our Bestie Club members enjoy access to exclusive, relationship-driven primary care that’s as elevated as it is personal. From thoughtfully designed appointments to signature hospitality (think: calming spaces and specialty drinks), our concierge medicine is built for pets and people who expect the very best. Membership is required for primary care and is has limited spots to ensure every furry bestie gets the time, attention, and tailored care they deserve because exceptional care should never feel rushed.
The Bestie Club
At Bark Ave, our membership tiers are designed to fit every kind of pet parent—from those who want seamless access to our care to those who love a little extra sparkle. With three core tiers, members enjoy priority scheduling, wellness perks, and exclusive access to our thoughtfully designed hospital experience. Each tier unlocks a new level of convenience, comfort, and connection with our concierge care team. And while our fourth tier exists… it’s by invitation only. Fall in love with us during an urgent care visit? Ask our concierge team about becoming a member.
An Atmosphere Like No Other
Bark Ave isn’t a sterile veterinary hospital—it’s a dreamy stroll through the best parts of NYC, designed with your comfort (and your bestie’s!) in mind. From our cat-only waiting and exam rooms to our phoneless lobby where you’re the main event, every detail is intentional. Sip from our curated bodega of drinks and healthy snacks while you wait— though you likely won’t be waiting long. It’s boutique care with a metropolitan soul, built on transparency, warmth, and an experience you can actually feel good about.
The Concierge Difference
Our approach is simple: We go the extra mile at Bark Ave. Whether it’s a stress-free wellness visit, cutting-edge diagnostics, or proactive longevity planning, our concierge service provides unparalleled care, convenience, and connection—all with a touch of luxury.
The Dish on DR. PRIMICIAS
Dr. Crimson Primicias, DVM
Founder & Medical Director, Bark Avenue Veterinary Services
Dr. Crimson has spent the past four years as an emergency veterinarian, caring for pets and families through some of their most difficult moments. With a deep love for medicine and a
bold vision for change, she founded Bark Avenue to offer something truly different: an elevated, concierge-style veterinary experience that feels as thoughtful and luxurious as the love we have for our pets.
Our owner and founder, Dr. Crimson, brings her passion for helping animals and their parents to every aspect of Bark Avenue. As a highly skilled surgeon and a dedicated advocate for pet health, she’s created a practice that bridges the gap between your primary veterinarian and the emergency room. Whether your pet needs routine care, same-day urgent care, or advanced surgical procedures, Bark Avenue is prepared for anything.
But her mission runs deeper than aesthetics—Dr. Crimson is just as passionate about transforming the veterinary industry from within. After witnessing firsthand the burnout and toxicity that plague the profession, she’s committed to building a new model: one that prioritizes team wellness, empowers veterinary professionals, and opens the door to sustainable, fulfilling careers in a space that feels as good to work in as it does to visit.
As a woman-led clinic in Riverdale, NJ, we prioritize personalized care and genuine connections. From the moment you walk through our doors, you’ll feel the difference. We make veterinary care feel like a breath of fresh air.

Say goodbye to anxiety-inducing clinics—Bark Avenue is a space that you’ll enjoy visiting and where your fur baby will feel at ease.
