Friendly staff, always tries to accommodate my needs. My dog seems genuinely happy to be there and it’s a good feeling when boarding. I like being able to check in on him on the video. I’m very happy with the services and have driven quite a long way now since I’ve moved from downtown Portland, but I still come for boarding because I know my dog is feels safe.

I sure wish the parking situation could be improved, even if Dogtopia could get one dedicated parking spot on the street. I’ve been hounded by parking officials several times when running in even though I haven’t been in the way and it’s only taken a minute.

The team is full of bright personalities and great attitudes, their obvious love for the pets in their care is admirable!

I can’t begin to express how much appreciation and gratitude I have for the entire Dogtopia South Waterfront team. My pup has been a full-time attendee for nearing one year now, and in that time we have experienced nothing but top-notch service and care.

The staff of Dogtopia South Waterfront are incredibly passionate about their roles and their care of the pups. Their communication is prompt and effective and they are more than accommodating for special needs and requests. My pup is always enthusiastically greeted when he comes in which brings a smile to my face and happy wiggles from him. It is of the utmost importance to me that my pup is safe, healthy, and happy and the diligent and dedicated staff here consistently ensure this. It is always a delight to be able to peek in on him during the day on the webcams and see that he is having so much fun with his furry friends and canine coaches.

In addition to the amazing staff, the services they provide are impeccable. The Dogtopia app allows for convenient scheduling of any daycare, spa, or boarding service. I was thrilled with the consistent communication I received when my pup boarded as it put my mind at ease. Prior to pickup from boarding he received spa services and was left smelling lovely (the de-shedding shampoo is the best!).

The highlights of my week are the regularly scheduled calendar events. The themes for the photo days, the crafts, and snack days are extremely creative and absolutely adorable. I love being able to receive a paw print painting craft or printed photos of my pup all dressed up.

Dogtopia of South Waterfront, you’ve made such a positive difference in my life and Remy’s. Thank you for consistently showing my little one so much love and providing him the BEST care – he loves you all so much. It is an honor to be a part of the Dogtopia family.

My dog Percy the chihuahua loves coming there and also everyone has been very cool about me just showing up with him since I have never been able to get the app to work no matter what I do.

Every day Maidel is so happy to prance through the doors of Dogtopia. I love picking her up happy and exhausted from a full day of play in toy box. The staff are so loving and amazing. I can’t say enough good things about the loving way they treat my doggie and all the dogs in their care.

It’s a dog party, every darn day!

My pup loves going to dogtopia. The staff are so lovely and attentive. I love that they have regular events. The photoshoots are so adorable. Every experience I’ve had with them have been great.

Flexible, curbside service and friendly!

Barney always seems to have a good time at South Waterfront. The staff is veery accommodating. I appreciate the accessibility.

friendly. dependable. my dog likes you

*Everyone* at Dogtopia is always so friendly, 100% of the time. And it’s clearly not just towards the pet owners, because my dog loves going to daycare. He gets so so excited anytime we’re near there, and drags me into the door ready to play. He comes home happy and tired
