Dogtopia of Broad Ripple, daycare is designed to be a place where dogs feel safe and supported. Our goal is to create an environment that builds confidence, encourages healthy movement, and supports positive social experiences.
We invite pet parents from Indiana to visit our modern facility, where their dogs can enjoy a safe and thoughtfully designed space. Throughout the day, we support physical wellness, mental engagement, and social development, all under the care of our trained coaches.
Instead of spending hours alone at home, dogs take part in supervised open play and structured activities. Rest breaks are built into the day, along with opportunities to learn through engaging brain games.
WHAT A DAY AT DAYCARE IS LIKE AT Dogtopia of Broad Ripple
Our state-of-the-art facility includes three spacious indoor playrooms that allow dogs to socialize naturally while staying safe and comfortable with like-minded pups that match their size, temperament, and play style. Dogs remain in their assigned playroom throughout the day to promote familiarity and reduce stress.
Our team balances activity and rest based on each group’s energy level, helping dogs stay engaged without becoming overstimulated. Throughout the day, pups can enjoy:
- Interactive agility activities and brain games that encourage movement and problem-solving
- Calm rest periods to recharge between play sessions
- Expert care and training opportunities from our coaches who are trained in doggy body language and managing large groups of dogs
- Mid-day lunch and nap breaks to rest and recharge
- Bubble parties with flavored bubbles that they can chase around their playroom
- Occasional themed photoshoots and treat days (check our events page, Instagram account, or give our team a call for monthly themed events)
By the time you arrive for pickup, your dog will be happily played out, drifting into what we like to call the Dogtopia Daze (a sign of a great day at daycare).
ADD A SPA VISIT
Daycare pairs perfectly with a visit to our on-site dog spa. Many pet parents schedule spa treatments before pickup, making it easy to take home a refreshed, pampered pup. Our spa treatments and grooming services support overall hygiene and comfort and are available to daycare dogs as well as to those who want to stop by just for some extra TLC. Visit our spa page to explore our options.
CLEAN, COMFORTABLE, AND PURPOSE-BUILT PLAYROOMS
Our modern facility is designed with dog comfort and safety in mind, providing a more balanced and confident play experience than a traditional dog park, for example, where dog personalities and cleanliness can be unpredictable.
Each playroom at Dogtopia of Broad Ripple includes:
- Rubberized flooring that supports joints and paw pads
- Floor-to-ceiling walls to limit noise and visual distractions
- Double-barrier doors for secure entries and exits
- Advanced HVAC systems that deliver clean, temperature-controlled air
- Secure play structures like slides and ramps that keep the space fun and engaging
CLEANING PROTOCOLS
A healthy daycare environment starts with strong safety standards. Our team follows strict cleaning and wellness protocols to keep the facility fresh and safe for every dog.
Our team performs twice-daily sanitization of playroom surfaces with dog-safe cleaning products and spot-cleans during playtime with a bio-enzymatic cleaner, so pups are never exposed to harsh chemicals.
HEALTH AND SAFETY
We accept all dogs, regardless of breed. However, there are some requirements that each pup must meet before starting daycare:
- At least 12 weeks old
- Spayed or neutered if seven months or older
- Up to date on vaccines (e.g., Bordetella, Rabies, DHLPP/DHPP, etc.)
- Free of fleas, ticks, and communicable conditions
- In good overall health
Before joining daycare, every dog must also complete a Meet & Greet evaluation. This 20-30-minute assessment allows our team to make sure Dogtopia of Broad Ripple is the right environment for them.
During the evaluation, we:
- Review your dog’s health history
- Perform a nose-to-tail wellness check
- Observe your pup’s behavior in a controlled play setting and comfort in a home-style crate (where they nap and/or spend overnight)
Once our team gives the green light, your dog can begin attending daycare right away if you’d prefer. Additional details are available on our pet parent information page. If you are looking to book a Meet & Greet, please fill out our online scheduling form.
TRANSPARENCY THROUGH TECHNOLOGY
We believe staying connected can bring peace of mind. Dogtopia of Broad Ripple offers technology that allows you to stay involved in your dog’s day, even when you are apart. Pet parents of daycare dogs can access:
- Live webcams are equipped in each playroom so you can check in anytime during playtime hours
- Dogtopia’s DASH wearable activity monitor that tracks activity, rest, and distance traveled, and more
- A convenient app, which includes a portal for booking daycare, boarding, and spa services
