Dogtopia Opens Its Doors in Norfolk-Ghent

Dogtopia, the renowned dog wellness franchise, is excited to announce the opening of its new location in Norfolk-Ghent on September 22. This state-of-the-art facility, situated at 118 W 21st St, spans 7,500 square feet, providing an extensive range of award-winning services including dog daycare, boarding, and spa treatments. The new center aims to cater to local pet parents' needs while ensuring a safe, engaged, and fun environment for their beloved dogs.

As part of their grand opening celebration, Dogtopia of Norfolk-Ghent is offering attractive promotions for new customers, such as $79 per week for unlimited daycare for an entire year, along with bonus days for those opting for two- or three-day weekly plans. This initiative represents the franchise's commitment to making quality pet care accessible to the community.

A Focus on Dog Wellbeing

Dogtopia emphasizes three key aspects of canine care: socialization, exercise, and education. By allowing dogs to interact and play with their peers, they foster essential skills and healthy activity levels. Each playroom is designed with safety in mind, featuring climate-controlled environments and specialized rubber flooring that minimizes stress on the dogs' joints and paws. With every dog grouped according to size and play style, pet parents can be assured that their furry friends are in a secure and nurturing setting under the watchful eyes of professionally trained Canine Coaches.

Meet the Family Behind Dogtopia

This new initiative is spearheaded by the Sutelan family—Chip, Barbara, Rachel, Edward, and Mary—who share a deep love for dogs. Their diverse professional backgrounds, including entrepreneurship, education, and business management, fueled their desire to establish a Dogtopia in their local area after discovering the franchise through a radio advertisement. Their collective enthusiasm and commitment to enhance dog care in Norfolk-Ghent promise to create a thriving community hub for pet families.

To celebrate the launch and engage with the local community, the family is planning a grand opening event in October, inviting local pet owners to join in the festivities with their dogs.

“As lifelong dog lovers, we are thrilled to bring Dogtopia’s commitment to safe and engaging environments for dogs to Norfolk-Ghent,” Chip Sutelan stated. “We aim to not only provide exceptional care for dogs but also foster a community where pet parents feel supported and connected.”

Beyond Daycare: A Commitment to the Community

In addition to its daycare services, Dogtopia is involved in the wider community through the Dogtopia Foundation. This nonprofit organization is dedicated to enabling dogs to make a positive impact in the world by funding programs that provide service dogs for veterans, therapy dogs for students, and job placements for adults with autism. Notably, 100% of the funds raised by the foundation go directly to these initiatives, showcasing Dogtopia's commitment to social responsibility.

The Norfolk-Ghent branch will operate from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. during weekdays and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekends.
