8th Ave – Nashville Reviews

Some days when looking at the cameras, we have seen around 25 dogs just in one room. When the rooms are that crowded, it’s not very easy for the dogs to just play, it seems overstimulating to them, and could be a safety hazard as well. It’s clear they are able to have much more fun when there are an appropriate number of dogs & they have room to run & play.

Also, our dogs smell strongly of pee every time we pick them up, so we either have to pay extra for them to be bathed there, or give them baths ourselves at home every time.

We have frequently seen employees take one mop and use it to wipe up 5 or more pee puddles without wringing & rinsing the mop between at all. This is essentially just spreading pee all over the floor, not cleaning, and makes sense why our dogs have such a strong urine odor when coming home. This is definitely a big factor in how often we decide to send them to dogtopia.

So yes, overcrowding and cleanliness would be our top two suggestions for improvement.

Otherwise, the front desk staff is lovely and when the rooms aren’t overcrowded, it’s clear our dogs have a blast. We do greatly appreciate you looking after them.

I love Dogtopia! My dog loves going to daycare and playing with all his friends. It gives me peace of mind knowing my fur baby is being taken care of when I have to be away. I have so much trust in the team and appreciate them loving my fur baby as much as I do. Highly recommend!

I wish there was an outdoor area

They are always friendly. Seem to really care about the animals.

Very nice place with very nice staff. My pup is always excited to go to Dogtopia!

Everyone on this team makes my Priscilla feel safe and loved!

Your people.

I love how I know my dog is going to be well taken care of!

Great staff, webcam and the flexibility half days

I feel very safe with my dog being there. My dog has benefited socially. Her behavior has improved. The trainers/employees have continued her basic training such as “sit.”
