“The pet space was kind of a no-brainer, and the franchise model was kind of a no-brainer, so it was just finding the right team. We spent a lot of time digging into structure and leadership teams. We spent some time with the executive team at Dogtopia and got a really good feel for the plan that they had in place for future growth and the level of support I could probably expect. It seemed like the right fit to make the decision to go with Dogtopia, and I definitely haven’t regretted it!”
“With four dogs of our own, what drew us to Dogtopia is their unwavering commitment to prioritizing the wellbeing of dogs above all else. We had always toyed around the idea of getting a daycare in addition to our roles, but we never had the time to commit. Now that I am making this career change, I’m 100 percent focused on taking care of dogs, and I haven’t been happier in my life. When I did my research on daycares and competitors, I figured if you can’t beat the best, join them.”
“Addie and I joined the Dogtopia family to create a home away from home for the dogs in our neighborhood and our community.”
“I wanted to work for myself, and every person I met at Dogtopia was my kind of people: practical and down to earth. ”
“What I’ve been most impressed with is how well Dogtopia does everything and has anticipated our needs. My excitement and level of encouragement has grown since I’ve joined.”
