The people, the facilities, the close proximity to home… and pup gets exercise with other dogs!

Dogtopia Southwaterfront is friendly and reliable and they treat my Bubbles like the princess that she is.

Clean, always supervised, separate small dogs from large, aggressive dogs from mellow.

Efficient

We use Dogtobia for maintenance baths and they do a good job.

I was surprised to pick up Archie and fine his face still needing washing and his face and head very wet. I will say that Archie is a 64-lb labradoodle, who probably needs a lot of drying and brushing. That’s the down side. The good side was that the rest of him was pretty dry and nicely blown out and he was happy and comfortable to be there, and that’s very important. I’ll go there again when my groomer isn’t available. Very nice, friendly people work there, and they made Archie very comfortable.

Extremely professional, friendly, and compassionate staff. They provide a great environment for the dogs, an awesome array of services available, and fair pricing. The dogs love spending time there, you can trust that they are safe, loved, and having fun. As a dog parent I can confidently rest assured that my pet is in the best hands.

We love how well they care for our pup! Being able to see via the cameras is also a great bonus!

Here’s a polished review you could post:

I originally found Dogtopia at the Waterfront because I needed a safe, trustworthy place to board Storm while my kids and I took a 10-day road trip through California. What started as a simple search has turned into so much more.

Storm is an American Eskimo, Alaskan Klee Kai, and Shiba Inu mix, and she’s still under a year old. Like many young pups, she was a little hesitant at first, but thanks to the incredible staff, she’s really started to spread her wings, build confidence, and explore. Watching her excitement when we arrive says everything I need to know about how much she loves being there.

The team is genuinely kind, knowledgeable, and so much fun. They clearly love what they do, and they treat every dog as if they were their own. It’s comforting to know Storm is in such caring hands.

One of my favorite features is being able to check in on Storm throughout the day. Having camera access gives me so much peace of mind and lets me see her playing, making friends, and enjoying herself.

I’m so grateful I stumbled across the Waterfront location. It has become much more than just a boarding option. It’s a place where Storm is growing, socializing, and thriving, and I couldn’t recommend them more highly.If you’d like, I can also make it a little shorter for Google Reviews or a bit more heartfelt and personal.
