Our puppy loves going to Dogtopia! Our 6 month old puppy goes two to three times per week for dog daycare. She has a blast playing with the other pups and I've seen her getting pets from the staff working in her room several times. We love being able to check in on her during the day with the cameras. The owner, Matt, is so friendly and truly seems to love dogs. I appreciate their prompt drop off and pick up services- the staff is very attentive! We have really enjoyed taking our girl to dogtopia and look forward to more visits.

I went to Wagtime frequently before the pandemic. My dog loved it. But the customer service under new management is extremely poor. My dog grooming appointments have been canceled multiple times in a row on several different occasions. Often I don't find out it's canceled until after I have arrived, and I am never offered any compensation or perks for the trouble and inconvenience. The haircuts also vary wildly from one appointment to the next, even with the very same instructions.
The staff at the front desk are usually complaining about their job or seem annoyed to be there (with a couple of exceptions). It makes me sad to write this, both because my dog loved this place and because it is the most convenient place to my house. I will not be coming back.

Wow, Dogtopia is a life-saver! I love that I can watch my pup 24/7 on the live camera to see how she's doing. She always looks like she's having the time of her life, and it really gives me peace of mind. I also love seeing that there is a live human in the room with the dogs to give them some attention and monitor the situation. All the staff members are wonderful, and everyone I've met has been so friendly and obviously a dog-lover. I also like the ease of booking with the website and mobile app. Dogtopia is simply the best!

We really had hoped to like this place.but will not be back. They nickel and dime you for every little thing. It is already more expensive than other places in the area and then they insist on having your dog come in annually for daycare in order to allow you to board. Each time I have boarded here they make mistakes on the reservation and call repeatedly for little items they forgot to ask you about when you made the reservation.
And here is the worst part.you have access to a camera while you are away and we watched them let a pug hump our Cavalier for HOURS while our dog tried to get away. We have to call multiple times and ask them to keep a closer watch.
