NEW PET PARENT?
If this is your pup’s first time at Dogtopia, there are a few things pet parents should prepare prior to rewarding your dog with the most exciting day ever!
At Dogtopia, our passion is giving every single dog the best-individualized care with their health, safety, and comfort as our top priority! Our home away from home environment is the perfect place for your pup to learn, play, and socialize with their BFFF (Best Furry Friend Forever).
Meet the Team
Skylor Stout, General Manager
Meet Skylor, your new General Manager at Dogtopia of Farragut!
If you have been part of our Dogtopia family for a while, you may already know her as the Operations Manager at Dogtopia of Bearden, where she has been since we opened in 2022. Skylor is thrilled to bring her passion for pups, pet parents, and positive vibes to Farragut!
She has recently graduated with her Bachelor’s in Health Science, and when she is not loving on your dogs, you can probably find her baking something sweet, exploring the outdoors with her own pup Whiskey, or planning her next travel adventure. Skylor’s favorite breed is the German Shepherd Dog, but she has a soft spot for every wagging tail that walks through our doors.
