Dogtopia of Alexandria
-
Dogtopia of Alexandria will care for your dog whether it's for a day while you work or for a few days while you're away from home. Dogtopia offers an open play area -- no individual kennel runs -- so all dogs undergo an evaluation to make sure they are up to date on vaccinations (rabies, bordetella and DHPP), are free of fleas and ticks and get along well with other dogs. Pets over 7 months old must be spayed or neutered. Boarded dogs play in the day-care center during the day before being put to bed at night in a homestyle crate. Prices depend on the type of care and duration of stay; a 30-day pass costs $28 per day, and overnight stays cost $20 per night plus $35 for day care. The initial evaluation costs $15.
