Dogtopia of Dallas - Inwood

Frankly, I never thought much about doggie day care... until Shasta came into our lives during the pandemic. I'd never had an escapee dog that roamed the neighborhood looking for friends--canine and human. We were at our wits end. Then my partner's sister recommended Doggie Day Care. We found Dogtopia right in the neighborhood and Shasta loves it. She goes three days a week, plays with all of her friends, especially Charlotte and she's good and warn out and less likely to climb the brick wall and roam the neighborhood. Happy dog, problem solved. We've even boarded her a couple of times and she's a camper. When she's happy, we're happy. I highly recommend it.

Since starting Dogtopia I've loved everything minute. I do think that who controls their social media needs to do a better job of updating on the daily. My dog is an individual at dogtopia not just a name. They spend a lot of time getting to know each dog and owner. They celebrate millstones, birthdays, all dog holidays, and have monthly events. I'm happy with her there and she's safe. The staff is great and it's nice to actually see the owners there in the building. As long as I live in the area she will be there!

I LOVE sending my dogs here! They have the best time. I can spy on my dogs via a special pup parents live feed, seeing how they interact with other dogs.\n\nThe staff are wonderful with my pups. They greet the dogs by name and evenly distribute pets and scratches in the play room. (My photo is of one of three rooms. They try to group pups by size and energy level.)\n\nI'm a huge fan, and so are my dogs.

Dogtopia Inwood is the gold standard for dog care and boarding. When I take my golden in for boarding, he RUNS to whoever is taking him in. It is such a blessing to be able to travel and know that he is not only taken care of, but he's carefully watched and loves his time there.

We boarded our dog and brought him for intermittent daycare at Dogtopia Inwood throughout 2021 and 2022, continuing into early 2023. Unfortunately, we were eventually asked not to return due to reported incidents of our dog biting staff.\n\nThis came as a surprise, as our dog had never shown any signs of aggression at home or in other environments—including vet visits and time spent with friends and family. Still, we took the reports seriously and trusted that Dogtopia Inwood was being honest about what had occurred.\n\nShortly after, we had moved to a different city a few hours outside of Dallas. At our new daycare and boarding facility, we fully disclosed the prior incidents and requested close monitoring. From 2023 through 2025, our dog stayed at this facility multiple times without a single issue—no biting, no signs of aggression.\n\nAdditionally, when visiting Dallas (we have family in the area), we boarded him at a different pet daycare/boarding location in the area on at least three occasions. Again, we were told there were no concerns whatsoever regarding his behavior.\n\nI’m writing this review years later to give Dogtopia Inwood the benefit of the doubt. I don’t believe they would fabricate the reports, but I do question what specific circumstances may have contributed to those incidents. Since then, at two separate facilities in similar conditions, our dog has had zero behavioral issues.\n\nAll this to say, our experience with Dogtopia Inwood raised concerns that didn’t carry over elsewhere. I’d recommend proceeding with caution at this location, especially if your dog has not previously shown signs of aggression.
