I know Luna is in great hands when I drop her off at daycare. The staff is incredibly attentive and loving towards Luna and the other pups under their care. I’m so grateful for the Dogtopia team!

The staff is so friendly! They love my dog like she's their own. Every time we get to Dogtopia, my dog runs up the stairs and wags her tail nonstop.

Incredibly frustrated in the service from Dogtopia. My dog was injured during play while being boarded and were received absolutely no communication regarding the incident. His nail was almost ripped completely from the nail bed, leaving a bloody, open wound. It wasn’t until a friend picked him up while I was still away was the injury mentioned in passing. As soon as the friend told us about it, we asked for pictures to consult a vet. The vet immediately responded saying there was high risk of infection, it would get worse with continued open play and he was likely in a lot of pain. I feel absolutely awful my dog sat at Dogtopia for days in pain. Had they been paying attention and had policies to notify owners immediately of injury, the injury would almost certainty not gotten so bad. But days instead of hours later, he spending the entire morning at the vet under sedation to treat the wound.

I get things happen at daycare, injuries aren’t unavoidable, but it’s the lack of communication and concern by Dogtopia that is infuriating. Who sees a dog with a torn off bloody nail and does nothing? They knew his owners were not the ones picking him up. We were still never directly contacted.

An absolutely disgusting place. It smelled horrible. I couldn’t even stay in there for five minutes. The lady said that that is what they cleaned with and it’s dog drool and pee, but let me tell you my dog does not smell like that at all. Not even PetSmart smells as disgusting as this place. Therefore, I decided not to board him there. Additionally, I went for a meet and greet and they had somebody new who really didn’t know the rules. Nevertheless, I decided I didn’t want to be there anyways because of the horrible smell. I wouldn’t go so far as to say she was rude, but she definitely didn’t seem to care about helping me or answering any of my questions. She is the front desk person so if she is a representative of the rest of the staff, I definitely would not be wanting to go there

Pricey but convenient for DC residents. Mike made the onboarding process extra streamlined since we were already Dogtopia customers at a different location.

I really appreciate that the Dogtopia team really gets to know your dogs and really work with them where they're at. I've already noticed such positive changes in my pups' behavior, and this is their first time in a daycare setting, going on two weeks! (Also please enjoy these CUTE photos from daycare)

We were in the city for just a few days but wanted to be able to go sightseeing where our dog was not necessarily welcome. Dogtopia to the rescue. It was so awesome to know our baby was getting her own mental and physical stimulation while we were out and about. The doggie cams gave us peace of mind and entertained us when we took a break from sightseeing. Every coach at dogtopia was so friendly and clearly loved working with their furry clients. Almost forgot the complimentary dog bath! Though usually offered for a fee, they provided it for free due to some issue with the floors - I really appreciated the business handling it without me even asking. Note- dogs go through an assessment before being accepted which gave us great confidence that they were careful in taking and placing the dogs together.

The staff at Dogtopia DC will treat your fur baby like their fur baby and post day care feedback is always great. Dogtopia DC staff truly cares!!
