Dogtopia – Dog Daycare, Boarding, Spa & Wellness

Dogtopia of Franklin Village

At Dogtopia, we believe your pup deserves the absolute best in care, safety, and play. Whether you’re dropping off for a few hours of play, an overnight stay, or a relaxing spa treatment, Dogtopia is your dog’s home away from home. Our dog daycare provides a safe, supervised, and engaging environment where dogs can enjoy off-leash play in spacious playrooms designed for their comfort. Each playroom is separated by size and temperament, ensuring every pup is paired with the right friends for safe socialization. Our highly trained Canine Coaches are always on hand to encourage good behavior, monitor interactions, and provide lots of love and attention. Dogtopia isn’t just about play — it’s about wellness, too. A day at Dogtopia helps your dog stay active, burn off energy, and return home happy and relaxed. To support overall health, we offer the DASH Activity Collar — a daycare-approved smart collar. DASH tracks your dog’s activity levels, rest, and wellness, giving you valuable insights into their health and behavior both at Dogtopia and at home. It’s another way we make sure your pup is not only having fun, but thriving. Our boarding services give dogs a chance to enjoy all-day play and restful nights under the care of our trusted team. And if your dog needs a little pampering, our spa services include baths, brush-outs, nail trims, and more, so they’ll look and feel their best. As pet parents ourselves, we know safety and transparency matter. That’s why every Dogtopia location is equipped with webcams, allowing you to check in on your pup throughout the day. Our facilities are sanitized with pet-safe cleaning products, and our staff is trained in canine behavior, first aid, and safety protocols. At Dogtopia, we’re passionate about giving dogs the love, exercise, and socialization they need to thrive — while giving pet parents peace of mind. Discover why so many families trust us as their dog’s second home.

Waltham based life science company PerkinElmer will be expanding their Hopkinton operation after voters approved a Tax Increment Financing agreement at Town Meeting. The expansion was announced just two days after the Board of Selectmen officially signed off on the tax agreement. According to ﻿<a href="http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20120607005474/en" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">a press release from PerkinElmer </a>, the new site will add 100 workers to the company's location on Elm Street.  "﻿<a href="http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20120607005474/en" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The mission of the Center will be to create new enabling technologies for scientists </a> developing and commercializing new diagnostic and therapeutic products. Located at the Company's facility in Hopkinton, Massachusetts, the Center will expand to a total of 350 employees and is projected to be fully operational by late 2012." According to the article the agreement will start at a 90 percent reduction to the property taxes; with that amount decreasing so that at the end of 13 years PerkinElmer will be paying their full value of property taxes. Based on conversations the property value of that over the 13 years there would be an additional $900,000 in property taxes collected by the town, half of what the totally tax bill would be if the agreement did not exist.

At the Annual Town Meeting last month, voters decided to allow the town to enter in an agreement with PerkinElmer allowing them to pay a discounted tax rate for several years.
