What a Fabulous Year It Has Been!

I cannot express enough gratitude to our amazing pet parents! Your trust and support mean the world to us. We truly love your pets and consider them part of our family. This journey was no coincidence—it was a lifelong dream, and I’d love to share a bit about myself and my passion for dogs.

Have you ever stopped a pet owner just to ask, “May I please pet your dog? What’s his/her name?” while completely ignoring the human? Or met a dog that didn’t instantly warm up to you and found yourself wondering what you could do to win them over? That describes me perfectly.

From a young age, I’ve been obsessed with dogs. I grew up cuddling my dogs in their beds and have never outgrown that love. Today, my wife Greta, our daughter Hannah, and I share our home with four wonderful pups—Gidget, Bianca, Django, and Dak—who are part of our family in every sense.

Professionally, I spent 20 years as a CPA working in corporate America, primarily in Houston. When my wife’s career brought us to Massachusetts, I saw an opportunity to chase a dream I had been quietly nurturing for years: opening a doggy daycare. After researching independent options and exploring several franchises, I chose Dogtopia for one simple reason—their unmatched standards of safety and cleanliness.

Before opening, I spent over a year studying the industry and carefully planning. In November last year, my dream became a reality. Together with a team that shares my unconditional love for dogs, we opened our doors and have been welcoming your wonderful pets ever since.

Seeing the joy on pet parents’ faces and tending to your pets fills a hole in my heart I didn’t even know existed. I can hardly believe that I get to do this for the rest of my life—it’s a dream come true.

Thank you for making this year unforgettable. Here’s to many more years of wagging tails, joyful barks, and happy paws!
