Are you planning a vacation or business trip and need someone to look after your furry family member? Look no further than Dogtopia of Viera! Our team of dog-loving professionals will treat your pup like they are their own. We provide them with plenty of play and attention. Whether you’re looking to leave your dog overnight or for an extended period of time, you’ll be picking up one satisfied and healthy pup after they board with us! Before you book your dog’s stay, we require them to attend three days of daycare to ensure their safety and comfort in our facility. This helps familiarize them with our space and teaches them you always return to pick them up.
DOG BOARDING IN Viera, FL
When you board your pup at Dogtopia of Viera, they will be treated to a vacation of their own! Each of our boarding dogs enjoy all day play with our daycare pups, including mealtimes, naps and potty breaks. Instead of traditional kennel runs, our boarding dogs enjoy full, all-access use of our off-leash, open playrooms. They are free to run around and socialize with their like-minded doggie friends. Our canine guests also enjoy five-star accommodations in comfortable home-style crates suited to their size, where they will enjoy a peaceful rest after a day filled with play.
We offer two choices for boarding; our most common is our home-style crates but we also offer three luxury suites for dogs that may prefer more space or are staying with a sibling.
As fellow pet parents, we know the guilt and worry associated with leaving your dog while traveling. Boarding can be stressful for your pup, so we make every effort to ensure it is a safe and fun experience for them! This starts by ensuring your dog is comfortable in our care and is surrounded by other dogs that they know. We accomplish this by requiring every dog that boards with us to pass a temperament evaluation and to attend a minimum of three days of daycare prior to boarding. This ensures that every dog feels comfortable in our open play environment before they are left for an extended stay.
All pet parents have peace of mind thanks to our high-quality webcams that allow you to watch your dog play while you’re away. Our live webcams can be accessed through our user-friendly app or any internet-connected computer.

EXPERT CANINE COACHES IN Viera, FL
Our incredible team of expert Canine Coaches are highly skilled in dog behavior and body language. They keep a close eye on pups in our playrooms and maintain fun playtime energy.

THE BENEFITS OF BOARDING WITH DOGTOPIA
Dog boarding offers several benefits for both dogs and their owners. Here are some key advantages:
- Professional care: When you board your dog, you can be confident that they will receive professional care from trained staff. Our boarding facility has experienced professionals who understand dog behavior, health, and safety protocols. They can provide proper supervision, administer medications (if needed), and respond to any emergencies that may arise.
- Socialization opportunities: Our facility is open-play, so dogs can socialize and interact with others in a controlled and supervised environment. This can be especially beneficial for dogs who enjoy the company of other pups and can help prevent loneliness and boredom during their stay.
- Exercise and mental stimulation: Regular physical activity and mental stimulation help keep dogs active, healthy, and engaged. This reduces the risk of behavioral issues arising from pent-up energy.
- Routine and structure: We follow a structured daily routine that includes regular feeding times, exercise, and rest periods. This can be particularly beneficial for dogs that thrive on routine and predictability. Maintaining a consistent schedule can help reduce anxiety and stress associated with being in an unfamiliar environment.
Pet Parent Benefits
- Peace of mind for pet parents: One of the primary benefits of dog boarding is peace of mind for pet parents. Knowing that your dog is in a safe and secure environment, receiving proper care and attention, allows you to enjoy your time away without worry. We also offer additional services, such as live webcam feeds or updates on your dog’s well-being, enabling you to stay connected and informed.
- No dependence on friends or family: Boarding your dog eliminates the need to rely on friends, family, or neighbors to care for your pup while you’re away. This can be particularly helpful if your loved ones are unavailable or unfamiliar with your dog’s unique needs. Boarding ensures that your furry family member will receive consistent and professional care throughout their stay.
OUR INITIAL MEET & GREET PROCESS
Before attending any of our services at Dogtopia of Viera, dogs must complete our Meet & Greet. This is an assessment performed by our evaluators to determine if our off-leash, open-play environment is the right space for each dog.
We will start this process by reviewing your pup’s health history and performing a nose-to-tail assessment to observe any responses to our team’s touch. This is also an opportunity to assess your dog’s comfort level in our home-style crates, which they’ll use for naps during the day and overnight unless you opt for a private suite. From there, we will create a controlled play space with a couple of other dogs from the same playroom your pup would be in. This is our chance to see how your furry friend reacts to being around others—a key component to attending Dogtopia of Viera. Once this assessment is complete, our evaluators will share their results and let you know if our facility is the right space for your dog’s overnight stay.
In addition to our Meet & Greet, your dog must meet some requirements. They include:
- At least 12 weeks old
- If seven months and older, be spayed/neutered
- Up-to-date vaccination record with DHPP/DHLPP (also known as “distemper/parvo), Rabies, and Bordetella. Canine influenza vaccine is highly recommended.
- In good health and free of communicable conditions (including fleas and ticks) within 30 days
- Non-aggressive or food/toy-protective
