“It was a relief with all of our funeral planning taking place in Chicago, to know that Ms. Bernice was going to take care of Niko. This was his first time at any day care and it seems that this will help us as we work with him to socialize with other dogs. Overall, she was very cooperative, reliable and conveniently located to our hotel. We would use her services again.”

“Needed a dog sitter last minute and Mandy was not only quick to respond and communicate, but gave updates and was flexible. Could not recommend enough! Thank you so much!”

“Marshmallow had a WONDERFUL first experience at Nancy & Mark’s Day Care! Sooo wonderful she’s scheduled for future Day Care dates as well as an upcoming Boarding weekend. I couldn’t be happier to have found a place, close to home, where my sweet, but scared and anxious, rescue is FINALLY comfortable other than with me!! Due to past trauma, Marshmallow suffers from SEVERE separation anxiety and can be fearful around large dogs, thus the fact that there is always a person present as well as the laid back and comfortable environment provided by Nancy & Mark was ABSOLUTELY perfect to calm ALL Marshmallow and Mommy’s concerns!! I was sent pictures, a video and updates throughout her stay. We truly feel blessed to have found such a GREAT fit!!!”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Currently, I care for two of my own—Sparky, my sweet 13-year-old Bichon Frise, and Shelby, my playful 1-year-old Miniature Goldendoodle. Having both a senior dog and a young, energetic pup has given me a wide range of hands-on experience, from managing health needs and gentle senior care to keeping up with puppy energy, training, and teething phases. In the past, I also cared for an American Pitbull Terrier for 5 years, and over the years I’ve looked after many dogs for friends, neighbors, and family members. Some of the breeds I’ve worked with include Chihuahuas, Beagles, Golden Retrievers, Pomeranians, and a variety of lovable mixes. Every dog is unique, and I truly enjoy getting to know each one’s personality and quirks. Whether they’re shy or outgoing, young or elderly, I’m patient, gentle, and always happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I’m usually available Monday through Friday, which means I have plenty of time throughout the day to walk, play with, and care for your pup. Whether they need a midday stroll, some company while you’re away, or just a little extra love and attention, I’m happy to be there for them. I’m home often, so I’m able to keep a close eye on the dogs and make sure they’re always safe and cared for. While my yard is open and unfenced, I never leave dogs outside unattended—they’re always on a leash and supervised, with access to a sunny, enclosed sunroom for extra comfort. For smaller dogs, I have a crate available if preferred by the owner, and I’m also able to provide transport in case of a vet emergency. My home is stocked with cozy blankets and toys that are always available for dogs to borrow and enjoy. Located in a quiet, beautiful area, the home offers plenty of space to explore, bird- and squirrel-watching opportunities, and nearby parks for peaceful outings. The spacious living room and multiple rooms allow for safe separation if needed, ensuring every dog feels comfortable. Most of all, your pup will enjoy peace, safety, and lots of love while in my care.

“Alicia was AMAZING! She was able to take my Ace for daycare on short notice and he had THE BEST time. She provided picture updates throughout the day too! Would 100% recommend her”

About: I took care of and was responsible for my dad’s golden retriever for 7 years while my dad battled kidney disease. I also grew up around our family Westie & German Shepard in my home that were super attached to me. So I am very attentive to a dogs need for love and care when away from the owner. Also first time guests and last minute requests must schedule a meet and greet I use to be flexible with this but situations have happened that caused me no longer be flexible. (For example old pictures of pet only to arrive and they are 3 times the size) For last minute requests please contact me directly I will try my best to accommodate but please be advised there may be a fee associated depending on the circumstance. If you have any questions please set up a time with me to hop on a call using the rover app. I will use my time to make sure your dog is loved and cared for the way you express to be done. I’m happy to send updates throughout the day/night & available for FaceTime video calls for you to check on your dog! I’m happy to show you my backyard area with pictures or video at your convenience. I can easily crate Your dog if you have a crate. If you prefer he or she would be welcome to roam the house as well.

“We can't recommend Julia highly enough! She is caring, considerate and responsive. Our rescue dog has enjoyed doggy day care and weekly walks with her. We appreciate the peace of mind we have leaving our sweet friend in Julia's care.”

About: I have a small dog at my home and he is a Shih tzu who is very social and fully vaccinated.I have been living with dogs for most of my lifetime, so you can be assured that your pet baby is in safe and caring hands. Also I will be working from Tue to Fri in the nights. - Boarding/ Day care service: You can get an extra free day if you do more than 5 days, you will be getting updates and pictures every now and then. You can also do a video call, once in a day. All the instructions will be followed according to your choice like feeding timings, playtime, whether they are allowed on furniture or not, etc and he/she will be getting attention all the time during their stay. I am working nights currently from Tue to Fri so I will have most of my days free. I can take them for walks just before leaving and then be back early in the morning. After I am home I can give them potty breaks every 3-4hours. I have a yard behind my apartment which is not fenced. So will have plenty of space to go around but only leashed. I will be with the pup all the time outside.

About: I have always taken care of dogs since I was little! The family pet or friends that needed someone to watch their dogs while they were away or at work I'm currently a stay at home mom I pick a few side jobs up here and there but will have plenty of open availability to watch your pups. I have a fenced back yard and will make sure your dogs have the appropriate amount of exercise. I live right by a dog park and love going on walks.

“Angela was super nice and welcomed Benny in like her own. He seemed super happy when I picked him up! He usually gets anxiety when he is separated from me and tends to act out the rest of the day, but he has been his normal self all day since I picked him up from her! She took him for multiple walks and let him get lots of energy out! 5 stars and I will definitely be using Angela again!”

About: I've been surrounded by furry friends since day one! 🐶 Seriously, I can't remember a time without a doggo by my side. Thinking about all the pets I've had makes me so happy. 🥰 Anyone else feel like their pets are family? It's the best kind of love! Enjoying the freedom of open schedule currently at home full-time. So furry buddies will get Daily walks around the lake to offer a refreshing escape. Relaxing time outside under tree shade help me do some gardening🤣. Dogs will be created when I am not home. I currently own a golden retriever. She's a friendly dog. I don't have a fenced in yard my dog listens to commands. Leashes and yard leads will be used. At night dogs will be in their creates.

About: I have experience caring for all types of animals: dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians, rodents, etc. You name it, I can care for it! Whatever your needs may be, your pets will be in great hands! I plan to devote all of my time and effort into ensuring your animals get all of their needs met, whether you have a high energy pup who needs lots of stimulation or just a chill baby who wants to cuddle on the couch. I have a fenced-in backyard and a friendly dog to keep yours company! I can also easily provide crate training if necessary or requested. I have 3 cats who are very used to all other animals but can easily be put up if your animal doesn't like cats. Whether I watch your animals at my house or yours, I simply ask for a detailed list of everything you want/need done, specifically if they have any special needs.
