Meet Jolene & Matt<\/h3>\n

Matt and Jolene Urbancic are the owners of Dogtopia of North Austin. Matt and Jolene came to Austin from Ohio in the late 90’s.\u00a0 As their two children prepared to head to middle school, they decided it was time to combine their many years of business experience with their love for dogs. They wanted to provide a place where dog lovers could feel safe bringing their best friends for a day of exercise, fun and care or a place where they knew they would be leaving their dog in safe hands when they went on vacation. Dogtopia, with its award-winning reputation for customer service and cleanliness, was the perfect fit for their vision.\u00a0 Jolene and Matt have two golden retrievers, Bella and Boomer, along with a rescued Chihuahua, Roxy. \u00a0Jolene is the owner\/operator of the facility, working in conjunction with our amazing staff.<\/p>\n

Meet our General Manager<\/h3>\n

My name is Allison Emanus and I am the General Manager of Dogtopia in North Austin. Before accepting this incredible position, I managed a doggie daycare and boarding facility in San Antonio, TX while simultaneously working towards my bachelors in English from UTSA. While I had no previous professional pet experience prior to my doggie daycare job in San Antonio, what started off as a part-time college occupation quickly developed into a passion for animals and the well being of others\u2019 dogs! I take great pride in striving to create the joyful experiences, stimulating enrichment, and well-deserved relaxation of every pup that walks through our doors; I could not be more thrilled with the opportunity to assist Matt and Jolene in their mission to ensure a safe, secure, and happy environment for the entire dog community of Austin!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
