Owners of Dogtopia® of Dulles, Taylor James and Art Prediger, always knew they wanted to own their own business. Having known each other for the past 5 years as co-workers and friends, they took their 25 years of combined experience in business and internet media, and a mutual life-long love for dogs, to make an inspired change.

Art heard about a dog (Zoe) that needed a home because her mom was being deployed. It turned out that Taylor's home needed a dog. Zoe was very shy and Taylor did not want her to be home alone during the work day, so she took her to Dogtopia®. Attendance at Dogtopia® improved her demeanor; she was much less shy and a happier dog. Taylor was so impressed with the changes in Zoe, that she wanted to bring this service to other dog lovers in the area.

Art joined Taylor in the venture to bring Dogtopia® to the Dulles area, which has a thriving community of dog lovers and is in need of this type of service. With long commutes, many Northern VA. dog parents are out of the home for extended periods of time during the day. Dogtopia® offers them a safe, fun environment to leave their dogs for the day, or night, and give them peace of mind.

Art and Taylor are thrilled to bring Dogtopia® to the Dulles area and look forward to meeting you and your dog!
