A Business You'll Feel Good About Owning
Dogtopia is a unique dog daycare business which opened its first location in Virginia in 2002 and in 2014 opened its first Canadian location in Coquitlam. At that time, dog daycare was very much a new concept, and the Dogtopia approach (to create “indoor dog parks” and provide a daytime service for dog care along the lines of a children’s daycare), was extremely innovative. Since then, the idea of taking man’s best friend to doggie day care has gained widespread acceptance.
