Meet the Team

Maria Irizarry, General Manager

Maria grew up in Northeast Wisconsin where she spent nearly a decade in the automotive industry. She’s always had a passion for animals, so she was over the moon to become a Dogtopian. She loves to check out the live music and local food that Birmingham has to offer with her 7 year old Catahoula Leopard Dog, Tucker

Cortney Meacham, Sales Manager

Cortney is a Birmingham native and attended UNA for a Merchandising and Marketing degree.  After ten-plus year of retail management she decided it was time for a change. While she has always loved dogs, this has sparked a new love and she has enjoyed getting to know our pups at Homewood for over a year now. In her free time, she enjoys going to Disney World and traveling to Esports events with her friends all over the US.

Mackenzie Van Oosterhout, Area Manager

Mackenzie, a dog-love Michigander, now calls Birmingham, Alabama home after years of wandering in her 20’s. Her loyal companion, Thor, a German Shepherd, is the heart of her adventures. She left a decade-long career in restaurant management for a new life at Dogtopia, where she’s living her dream surrounded by paws, wagging tails, and endless doggy kisses. She and Thor explore the world, embracing the beauty of nature, and making every moment an adventure.
