Dogtopia of Orlando - Apopka - Apopka, Florida

We've been sending our energetic dog to Dogtopia in Apopka for 2 months and have been extremely happy. It's worth the price for her to mingle with other dogs, mental and physical stimulation, and for us, to tire her out. When she comes home, she eats dinner and immediately takes a one hour nap, and then is ready for her evening walk. The team is positive, responsive, helpful answering questions, and super creative with a weekly and monthly schedule of events. The facility is organized, clean, indoors (temp. controlled & not dusty nor dirty from mulch), and the team is amazing with the dogs. We highly recommend Dogtopia!

What an amazing experience. The staff were amazing and my cutie Layla loved every moment. The boarding experience was super easy and I felt comfortable leaving my Layla in good hands.

Can not recommend this place enough!

Vexahlia is our first fur baby, and she was so shy when we came for our meet and greet. She’s always been more of a people dog, so we wanted to give her the opportunity to interact with other dogs safely. I was pleasantly surprised at the lengths Dogtopia went to help her adjust. Months later, she zoomies in the car and practically jumps through the door so she can play with her fellow pups.

I can’t thank everyone at Dogtopia enough for taking care of our girl and giving us the peace of mind that she’s safe, loved, and cared for, even when we’re not there.

And the ability to check in on her takes a lot of fur parent anxiety away.

I also love that we get pictures of her during special activities, and I have an amazing pup art collection started on my fridge that I look forward to growing with every pup craft.

Perfect place to bring your pups, if you’re thinking of giving doggy daycare a try, this is it.

My babygirl will never return. Cheap is not always good. I will say I liked the webcam they provide to see your baby. Also cute fridge magnets they gave us of her, but this last visit she had made it her last. She came home with 3 scars. She also came back home with diarrhea. Come to find out all the dogs share the same water bowl! My husband contacted management and she called our girl an “instigator.” She has been to boarding mulitple times before and not once had this been a problem. She was even here before and this was never a problem. I understand moods change and let’s say she was being an “instigator” how about a phone call? How about you pull her from group play? Do something about it rather than letting this happen to her. Protect your babies and go somewhere else.

The experience we received for our dog was priceless! From the first welcome to how they manage the facility with great activity for the dogs and make sure our dog is with the right bunch. There curriculum activities and themes for dogs every month are so much fun for them!

We can’t wait to bring in Archie for his week vacation at Dogtopia next month!

Kindest regards,

I just brought my 3 dogs in for a meet and greet. I am appreciative that they do assessments to check dog temperament, HOWEVER -

Two of our dogs have been boarded at no less than 7 different facilities (we've moved a lot). They have never EVER had an issue at any of the facilities EVER - No discipline reports and certainly, they have never been denied boarding or sent home from one. They have never had an issue with other dogs nor other people.

Yet, here, my 6 year old Boston Terrier, who again has never had an issue with any other dog or person before, "nipped" and "became dominant" with another dog. I laughed when the employee told me that. At home, this dog is extremely submissive. We have 3 small children and he let's them pet him and play with him to no end - without incident.

I trust my dogs read on people - they know good people from bad. If the dog who has never had an issue with anyone before is "nipping" for the first time in his life, something must be off with these people. We will not be back for the reassessment and will be actively telling others to avoid this place.

I waited a while before posting a review to make sure my pup liked Dogtopia and will give a detailed review because pup-parents only want the best 😉 I was nervous to take my dog to a daycare because he’s my first dog and I get worried about others caring for him.
Luckily I found Dogtopia and it is his favorite place to be! He barks and jumps around excited as soon as we pull into the parking lot every single time we arrive. The benefits of Dogtopia versus other places are:

1. It’s indoors - my dog hates the heat and in Florida, there’s a lot of it
2. I can use the app to check in on him via webcam anytime to make sure he’s alright (he always is, but pet parents get anxious about fur babies)
3. My pup was a bit destructive at home out of boredom and this has just about completely stopped since bringing him to Dogtopia!
4. There are fun-filled events nearly every day from bacon bubble machines to pool parties and everything in between to keep things interesting and there is almost always someone in the room with the dogs to give them human affection and ensure playing is not too “ruff”.
5. Dogs are screened for temperament prior to being admitted (shots required) and separated into 3 rooms by size and so I know my dog will be with other smaller breeds.
6. This place is VERY clean. If you check the webcam now and then, the staff are CONSTANTLY mopping and cleaning and if you arrive at the end of the day (when cameras are off), you’ll see that they do a deep clean every night.
7. The dogs are free to play all day. There are kennels that the dogs can go in to chill out (when they do, other dogs leave them alone), but the dogs are always out and about and not locked up but free to move about. When my little guy comes home; he is exhausted (which is really nice).
8. They offer spa and boarding services.

I hope this helps someone to make a good decision based on my (and my dog’s) experience at Dogtopia as I know the care of our pets is important 🙂 <3

Great staff, they were caring, sent photos and updates. Our Doodles were very happy...and tired after play days. Just a great place for a play day!
