Dogtopia – Dog Daycare, Boarding, Spa & Wellness 

Dogtopia of West Orange

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.

Some Hanover Park High School teens were among more than 200 students to participate in the Multicultural Teen Corporate Mentoring Program at Novartis Corp. in East Hanover. Teens spent their spring break participating in job shadowing, a State of the Union challenge, a career and college fair, panel discussions with senior company leaders, a mock marketing challenge and a community service project. "I took in so much information," said Francisco Ruela of Florham Park, a junior at Hanover Park.  "I couldn't imagine the amount of work that goes into each part of the business, and how many people, intricacies and knowledge are involved." The goal for the weeklong event was to expose the students to activities designed to help them set high personal, academic and career goals. "The experience I gained was amazing, from hearing the executive panel to having my own mentor," said Alvin Matthew, a Hanover Park freshman.
