The Dog Stop is an all-inclusive and award-winning dog care brand, located in Columbia Township at 5164 Kennedy Ave, right off I-71 in the former MadTree Brewing space. The brand-new facility is NOW OPEN and provides a full range of services designed to enrich the lives of local dogs and their families — playtime-focused daycare, spa-style grooming, year-round overnight boarding, and a pet retail store that carries the best products. The facility is run and managed by a highly-trained staff that follows Fear Free® principles, which focus on reducing stress, anxiety, and fear while promoting the emotional wellbeing of your furry family member. We welcome all dogs, including reactive or senior dogs, who receive one-on-one interactive sessions.

The Dog Stop celebrated its opening earlier this month with a community Open House and a ribbon-cutting ceremony in partnership with the Cincinnati Chamber. Guests enjoyed facility tours of our 13,000 square foot facility, including five large indoor and outdoor play areas equipped with cameras, with one area exclusively designed for VIP dogs (Very Independent Players) – pups who benefit from a quieter, more private environment with personalized attention from staff. Boarding options include luxury kennels and private VIP kennels equipped with cameras for owners to check in on their pups.

Now through the end of November, customers can enter a raffle to win exciting prizes, including one year of free doggie daycare and a free grooming. And throughout the upcoming holiday season, enjoy grand opening pre-sale offers on our website!
