Dogtopia Expands to Hillsboro with Focus on Canine Wellness and Community Impact
Dogtopia's new Hillsboro location brings premium dog daycare services to the Portland metro area while creating jobs and supporting canine welfare through its foundation.
Dogtopia, the nation's leading dog wellness franchise, is expanding its presence in Oregon with a new 6,000-square-foot facility opening in Hillsboro on September 29th. Located at 7478 E. Main St, the facility will provide award-winning dog daycare, boarding, and spa services, marking the first of five planned locations in the greater Portland metro area by franchise owner Jeremy Shidner.
The Hillsboro location represents significant economic and community impact, with the facility expected to create 30 new jobs while offering team members the unique benefit of bringing their dogs to work at no cost. This expansion comes at a time when pet services continue to grow as essential components of urban communities, addressing the needs of dog owners seeking reliable, high-quality care for their pets.
Dogtopia's approach to canine care sets industry standards through its focus on socialization, exercise, and education. All dogs undergo thorough evaluations and health checks before entering the climate-controlled playrooms, which are designed with compressed rubber flooring to reduce impact on dogs' paws and joints. The facility enforces strict vaccine and spay/neuter policies to ensure safety for all animals.
Beyond its commercial operations, Dogtopia maintains a strong commitment to canine welfare through the Dogtopia Foundation, a nonprofit organization that funds programs focused on service dogs for veterans, therapy dogs for students, and employment initiatives for adults with autism. One hundred percent of funds raised are donated directly to supported organizations, demonstrating the company's dedication to social responsibility.
The new facility will operate from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekends, providing flexible options for pet owners. For additional information about services and offerings, visit https://www.dogtopia.com/portland-oregon-hillsboro/.
