Dogtopia!! Home away from home.

Pet care experience

I've cared for furry family members for more than 20 years. I know how to help dogs have fun and keep them happy and fulfilled. I've trained nearly a dozen dogs and helped friends and family make breakthroughs with behavioural issues. We currently have two labs here at PawTopia and they love our huge dog park-like yard, kiddie pool, and toys. We take great care of our furry family members and can do the same with yours. I'm full-time so it's 24/7 pup pawlooza around here! I love dogs and they love me. I am a professional and take dog care very seriously. That's what allows me to take such great care of your family member. If your furry family is here at DogTopia with me, they have free run of the yard and home. They have the same rights as our two labs. I follow your special instructions for care and handling, but besides that, it's like going to the dog park for them lots of space and fun. If I care for your dog at your home, you set the standards for behavior. :)

Michael was an AMAZING sitter for our doggy! He ensured to follow up with us daily and sent numerous pictures and videos to keep us updated on our boy. Our dog had a minor accident and had to go to the vet and Michael was fully thorough and understanding of the whole process. During the entire time, he gave us updates and ensured our dog was okay. He really treated our dog like his own and I am glad our dog enjoyed every bit of his stay! I would definitely recommend Michael and will definitely be using him again in the future. ✨

Information Michael W. would like to know about your pet

How do they like to have fun? Behavioural Issues? Are they chipped? Do they have their shots? Do they get along with other dogs? Are they on flea medication? Do they have fleas? Do they know how to use a doggy door? What is their feeding schedule? Are they microchipped? Any allergies? Any medications? Do they have food aggression? Do they have toy aggression?

A typical day

It starts with waking up from nice plush dog beds. Then we all head out into the backyard Pawlooza for some play. Then after the goofing off, breakfast is served. After meals, everyone typically rests. Our doggy door allows everyone to go to the backyard or the house as they please. If it's a dog park day, we all load up in the wagon and head to the Heart of Texas "HOT" Dog Park in Waco. Each guest needs to be approved for the dog park to make sure they're capable of such an activity. In the afternoon everyone rests, goes in the yard, swims in the doggy pool, whatever they want to do really. Some just like to lay around next to me or my wife. Dinner is typically served around 5 pm. More play in the evening with the ball and tug toys, then bed around 10pm ish.
