What Reviews Say

71 reviews analyzed

Dogtopia of Brick enjoys overwhelmingly positive reviews with 80% 5-star ratings, praising the caring staff who know dogs by name, clean facility, and convenient webcam access. However, serious safety concerns emerge from 4 negative reviews describing unacknowledged bite incidents, false aggression claims during evaluations, and inadequate staff-to-dog ratios. The owner responds professionally to all reviews, including negative ones, though some customers report unresolved issues despite management outreach. The facility excels in dog happiness and socialization but needs improvement in transparency around safety incidents and staffing levels.

Worth noting

Dog bite incidents not acknowledged or properly addressed

โ€œMy dog named Mei Mei Was bitten... No one acknowledged the biting incident... they completely deny and ignore.โ€

Staff making false claims about dog aggression during evaluation

โ€œHe immediately brought up the collar and claimed our dog 'snarled and growled' when they tried to remove it... When I asked directly if our dog showed any signs of aggression, her response: 'Not at all. He was so sweet and friendly.'โ€

Inadequate staff-to-dog ratio

โ€œThe space where my dog was boarded has one staff person per 15 dogs which is truly obsurd.โ€

Inconsistent communication about policies (crate time, vaccination requirements)

โ€œWe were not aware it was this length of time. We were told it was only to clean.โ€

Staffing concerns - not enough employees(3 mentions)

โ€œThey need more employees than one. The one employee is not able to interact with the dogs because they were too busy cleaning and making sure dogs were behaving.โ€

Communication issues - lack of updates or miscommunication(3 mentions)

โ€œExtremely bad communication... On the way there at 3:11pm I get a text to bring my pets records.โ€

Overnight supervision concerns(2 mentions)

โ€œNo one there over night to watch the animalsโ€
