Bloomfield New Pet Parent Info

Welcome to Dogtopia!

We are excited to meet you and your pup for your Meet & Greet! At Dogtopia, we are focused on health and safety as well as ensuring all dogs are comfortable in our open-play environment. For daycare and boarding, all dogs are separated into playrooms by size and temperament where they can enjoy hours of safe socialization, exercise, education and FUN. They’re supervised by our highly trained Canine Coaches and you can check in on them throughout the day via our live webcams!

  • What is a Meet & Greet and why do I need one?

    While we love all breeds and personalities, not every dog is suited for an off-leash, open-play environment. We take our doggie guests’ safety very seriously, so each Meet & Greet consists of 20-30 minutes with our trained evaluator to ensure that your pup is a good fit for daycare. It will include a health history overview, a nose-to-tail assessment, and an evaluation of their comfort level with other dogs in a controlled mini-play area. The process is very easy and ensures all dogs are comfortable at Dogtopia – we look forward to getting to know you and your furry family member better! Please note: All dogs must be at least 12 weeks of age AND current on required vaccinations (Rabies, DHLPP/DHPP, and Bordetella). Dogs older than 7 months must be spayed or neutered.

Dogtopia requirements:

  • Up-to-date on vaccinations including Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella – Canine Influenza is strongly recommended at this time. Don’t have your records? We can call your vet for you!
  • Puppies must be at least 12 weeks old AND fully vaccinated for Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella
  • Dogs 7 months and older are required to undergo traditional spay/neuter procedure

*Newly adopted adult dogs should be in their new home for at least 30 days to get comfortable in their new surroundings
*Dogtopia requires all new overnight boarding pups complete 3 days of daycare prior to their first overnight stay with us to ensure their comfort during the stay and meet all their new human and furry friends ahead of time.

MEET & GREET

GETTING READY FOR THE MEET & GREET:

Once your Meet & Greet appointment is set and confirmed by our team, you will receive an email to log-in to your online dashboard and begin the registration process. This is where we get to know more about you and your dog, vaccinations can be uploaded by you or our team and you can review and digitally sign our Pet Parent Agreement. Then you’re ready!

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Please arrive with your dog(s) properly leashed on a harness or collar prior to entering our lobby. During your Meet & Greet, we ask that you set aside 20-30 minutes to speak with our team about your dog and what’s most important to you when it comes to doggie daycare. Your pup will be in great hands with one of our many trained evaluators throughout the Meet & Greet process.  Once our team has gotten to know you and your pup better, we will provide you with some updates on how they are acclimating to the playroom and discuss a good pick up time for you to return. We require all dogs to be present for a minimum of four hours on their Meet & Greet day to allow them time to fully acclimate to our open play environment. 

EVALUATION INCLUDES:

  • Wellness check
  • Response to staff touch/interaction
  • Comfort level in a crate – Crates are used for rest, naptime, boarding, feedings and administering medication when applicable
  • Reaction in “open-play” setting with other dogs of varying size, breed, and temperament
  • Overall observations

The process is very easy and there is nothing to be nervous about at Dogtopia – we just want to get to know your pup better!

Have additional questions? Please visit our FAQ page.

*We require all medications to be brought in their original containers with the following information clearly listed: your dog’s name, the medication name, dosage instructions, and the prescribing veterinarian. Please verify all medications with our team ahead of time to ensure it is safe for the open-play environment.

WHERE DOGS ARE A REALLY BIG DEAL

Because dogs are a really big deal to us, Meet & Greet day at Dogtopia is fun for the whole family – consider it an introduction to our open-play environment perfectly suited for your pup’s fitness and social life. In fact, don’t be surprised if your furry child meets his or her BFFF (best furry friend forever) while you’re here!
