Doggy Day Care in Arcola

“She understood how to introduce dogs to each other and I was happy to leave my bb with her, I was traveling from out of town so had to stay for a long day and my dog was happy at the end of the day, we also got some lovely stickers! And treats”

“Luke & Aria (your sweet Doberman) thanks for providing a great afternoon for GiGi! I appreciate that they could play so well together in your fenced yard, that she had a lot of water and potty breaks and that you gave very good supervision. It was so nice to hear that you would love to take care of her again, to read your nice comments and that you provided cuddle time. You live in such a convenient location near a highway exit and other Rover clients could get a lot of errands done close to your home. We will call again.”

“Absolutely wonderful experience! Karen was so kind and welcoming to our very energetic pup! She has great attention to detail and took the time to truly get to know our dog and his unique personality and needs. Getting updates and pictures of our dog having the time of his life with Karen and her family made us feel so at ease knowing that he was in great, loving hands. We will definitely be reaching out to Karen in the future and our pup can’t wait to go back! ☺️❤️”

“Katie helped us out on short notice. What a wonderful and kind person. Scooter warmed up to her right away. My dog is not used to being away from us but went right with her and never looked back. I enjoyed my day and never had to worry if he was enjoying his. Definitely will be calling Katie again.”

“Sandy is the best person to care for your dog while you’re away. She takes the time to find out about your dog before she takes care of them. It’s obvious that she truly loves caring for dogs. I know my little guy will miss all of the love she gave him in my absence. Lisa L.”

“Our Aussie/Border collie had a delightful time at doggy daycare every day for a week. Jessica and her husband were very communicative, prompt and sent photos. They were patient working through our dog's anxiety on the second day (when he realized this was not just a one-off play date), and he ended up happy and comfortable the rest of the week, playing all day with their resident dog and another friend. We'd recommend them as excellent dogsitters and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.”

“Orlando and Nicki were very responsive and accommodating. They were welcoming and hospitable. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with them and they took very good care of our pet.”

“Great first day with a wonderful family! This was our daycare practice day before his weekend stay next week. Brody was very happy and well cared for. We received wonderful pics and are very pleased with how it went.”

About: My husband and I have owned 4 “rescued” dogs and one purebred during our 18 years together. We loved them all unconditionally and enjoyed all the time we had with them. We each had dogs in our prior 30 years of childhood and raising children. They were all amazing pets and we loved them as family. We had great friends who were able to take care of our dogs when we needed to go away and we are so thankful for that. I was never able to consider putting one in a kennel. We enjoy travel and cannot commit to year round, long-term pet ownership/care. Becoming a pet sitter is the best way to fill that huge void of having our own dogs. I dont miss an opportunity to say hello to a dog passing by on the sidewalk, admire from a distance as we’re waiting at a stoplight or any public place. Caring for your special fur-baby will be my privilege. My motivation is purely related to having dogs around to love and care for. I cannot wait to love, care for and protect your special family member! I will be glad to share pictures and updates with you to put you at ease while you are away. We know how important it is when you entrust your family member to others. For first time stays and especially long term stays, we would welcome an initial visit to meet your special family member and let you see the surroundings where your pet will be cared for. NOTE: I am very sorry to note that I have allergies so we can only accept hypoallergenic dogs for care in our home. So sorry, we love them all, but I am unable to care for other breeds in our home. I work from home Monday-Friday. I am an early riser on the weekends as well. My husband and I are available all days of the week to care for dogs. We love to have dogs on our lap or at our side. We cannot wait to meet yours and care for yours. I do not have any pets in the home and we will lovingly be with your pet at all times, including while we take them outside for a walk or potty breaks. I want to hear all about your pets daily activities and things that are important to you and your dog in their daily living. We understand the importance of dietary needs specific to each animal and will absolutely honor your requests specific to daily food plans and treats.

“Jessica and Jacob were amazing sitters! Very friendly and professional. My pup went to their house for daycare for a few days and had a great time with their family. Will definitely book again!”

“Amanda watched my dog on a few hours notice for our wedding, and it was such a relief that he was in good care! She was so flexible and easygoing and our dog definitely had a blast!”

Tessa R.

“Jennifer was a great host and very helpful. We would definately recommend her.”

About: We just lost our beloved Pitbull of 10 years in December. While not ready to own a new dog, I would love to be around them! I’m very active and would love to take your dog for a nice long walk and give them all the pets and snuggles needed! I’m currently a stay at home mom and have a lot of time during the day to hang with your pet! I am typically home all day. We live on 5 acres but do not have a fence. Our dog was trained to stay in the yard. We have a long tie out for dogs if they do not stay in the yard.

About: I grew up on a farm and my parents were both veterinarians. I love animals and am even tempered. I’ve had a dog my whole life (except during college) and I know how important exercise & companionship are for our furry friends. I’m currently working part-time from home and have lots of time to play & go for walks with your pup. My availability is very flexible. My backyard is fully fenced and a great size. My home is in a central location with great access to walking trails and not too far from the highway.

About: I have been a dog lover since I was a child. I got my first dog when I got my first house and still have him today! I have watched my friend’s dogs and also helped neighbors over the years. I have experience with a variety of dogs. In addition I have a 10 year old daughter that is the biggest dog lover so is sure to give your dog lots and lots of love and attention! I work full time from home so am available during the day for potty breaks! I am free evenings and weekends for play time and walks and fun time with your pup! I have a yard and plenty of walking paths around to keep your dog active. We do not have a fence but take out dogs with a leash or tether. We have a 14 year old friendly lab.

About: I have owned dogs and cats my entire life and am grateful for the companionship they bring. I can provide a safe and loving environment while you are away. I am also familiar with special needs dogs, puppies and seniors. I work from home and am available to help care for your beloved pets while you are away. I also own a small dog and a cat, so I take frequent trips outside for exercise and bathroom breaks. I have a fenced yard and go on daily walks. I love dogs and will spend time watching over your dog in a safe and nurturing environment. I also have a small dog that would enjoy making friends if your dog would enjoy that.

About: I have experience in feeding, grooming, walking, administering medication, and ensuring a safe environment for dogs since childhood. This began with my family dogs, which taught me the importance of love and patience with our furry family members, and this mentality has continued into my adult life with my own pups. I can’t wait to have pawsome adventures with your pet 😊 I am a stay at home momma so I have a lot of availability and flexibility all week long for boarding, daycare, check ins, etc. I have a yard with 3 friendly fur babies of my own to keep your pet company! I also have endless tough chewer toys to keep your pup’s tail wagging!

“Krista is SIMPLY THE BEST (yes, hear Tina Turner belting this out in your head 😄)! Our dog, Finn, loves her so much and has a great time with her three sweet dogs every time he goes to her place. Krista is incredibly kind and attentive, and we always appreciate the adorable photos of Finn she sends!”

“Rachel has been watching my 5 month old wheaten terrier puppy a few times a week and he LOVES her. He is so happy and excited to see her which is a clear indicator that he gets lots of love and attention when he’s with her! She is super communicative and always keeps me up to date with photos throughout the day, as well as with general status/progress notes [and without me having to ask, which has really alleviated any additional stress that might come with leaving your fur baby!]. I have an unpredictable schedule and she has also been very flexible and accommodating with last minute requests and changes. Highly recommend - so grateful I found her!
