Pawtropolis.com - the city that's gone to the dogs...and cats, too.

Our Central Bark has always been a popular spot for owners to let their dogs play off-leash but we've spent the summer making it even better. All the red mud is now covered in grass, we've added a few more benches, a bit more landscaping, a new water hydrant and lots of new toys. We are kicking off the remodeling with a cook-out and playtime. On Friday October 1st at 7pm bring your dog and come join us for Burgers, Barks & Brews. We'll have the grill up and running, we'll have some burgers (veggie and meat) and beverages but please bring whatever extras you'll like. We can throw anything on the grill for you and have coolers of ice to keep those tasty beverages cold.

Central Bark

Our plan is to have a Burgers, Barks & Brews at least once a month or so. A time for us to hang out and enjoy the company of other dog lovers while letting our dogs enjoy off-leash fun. The next one is listed below, it will be Friday November 19th.

We also want to encourage the use of Central Bark even when no events are planned. Central Bark is an off-leash dog park located here at Pawtropolis. It is normally $1/dog to enter the park. All money is used to keep the park maintained. However, many of the events are no charge. You can rest assured that all dogs entering the park are up-to-date on vaccines. We ask for proof of rabies, kennel cough and dhpp before entering.

In an effort to promote the park we're going to have special playdates on certain days. During these playdates all dogs of all varieties are welcome, however dogs that fit into the categories won't be charged. A great way to met with like minded dog owners and meet some of your dogs' friends.

Playdates (All start around 7pm):
If you have a playdate idea please email us and let us know. Have lots of Dobie friends... we'll promote a Doberman playdate. Just let us know.

Many of you are already aware of our Home Alone Pet Sitting services but it's still new to others. Just wanted to remind everyone that Pawtropolis can also go to your home and take care of your pets.

This service has become even more popular lately as people come up with more ways to make our pet sitting work for their lifestyle. For example, a few families bring their dogs for daycare most days but occasionally have us come do a quick potty break at the home instead. We have several that have us come by and take their dog for a walk simply because by the time they get home from work they're just too tired. We give the dogs dinner and do a walk so when the owners get home from work everything is taken care of. Pet sitting can definitely be used for much more than just when you are on vacation.
