Dogtopia of South Elgin is the leading destination for dog daycare, boarding and spa services. Our mission is to make sure your four-legged family members are kept safe and have a fun time when they are at our modern, open-play facility.
We understand that your dog is a member of the family. You want to provide your dog with safe socialization so that they meet and play with like-minded friends, exercise to keep them healthy and extend their lives and education to help ensure they are well-behaved both at home and when you take them out in public. Dogtopia’s daycare is designed with these needs in mind. Your dog’s safety is our top priority; that’s why our team’s training is certified by two nationally recognized associations in canine behavior. Our play rooms are supervised by these certified Canine Coaches, and your dog will be in a playroom where he or she is surrounded by dogs of similar size, temperament and play style as well as those who are fully vaccinated and have passed our Dogtopia evaluation. Your dog will be in very capable hands during their time with us!

DOG DAYCARE SERVICES AND MORE
Dogs thrive in a structured environment where they can socialize with others, learn new things, stay active and have fun. Our daycare provides pet parents with more than just a place to leave their dog for the day. They will learn valuable skills, including how to behave around humans and other dogs.
Our facility comes with spacious, supervised playrooms in which dogs are placed according to their size, temperament and play style to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for your beloved pet.
We offer an off-leash, open-play environment, allowing your pup total freedom. We provide dog parents with half-day or full-day daycare. If your pup needs a spa day, we also offer spa services as a part of our daycare and boarding packages. When you pick up your dog at the end of the day, you’ll pick up a perfectly happy and played out pup.
Our services include:
STATE-OF-THE-ART FACILITY
We’ve taken every precaution when it comes to the design of our facility. All of our spacious indoor playrooms feature climate-controlled HVAC systems to keep your pup at the perfect temperature during both playtime and naptime, while also helping to keep the air fresh and clean. We deep clean and sanitize the playrooms multiple times a day using a biologically safe, pet-friendly cleaner. The compressed rubber flooring is specially designed to support long-term joint and paw health for your furry child.
Here at Dogtopia of South Elgin, we offer over 3,000 square feet of play space. All of our rooms are double-wall constructed to reduce outside noise and help dogs relax.
We have three spacious, thoughtfully designed playrooms for dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and play styles. Safety and comfort come first—so every pup plays where they feel happiest! 🐶
