Doggy Day Care in Barrington

“Nothing but amazing help and reviews I give to Sadie and her Husband ! My girl Martina gets so excited when we are on our way to see her new found friends. Sadie takes lots of pictures, goes on walks, goes on car rides, and gets so much energy out of Martina, so I know how happy my girl is when she is with them. Sadie is great at communicating as well. Thank you for all that you guys do 😁🐾”

“Julie was great with our dog, Knox. She did a phenomenal job with the meet and greet which made us feel comfortable right away. She was also communicative during the visit, letting us know that our pup was happy and enjoying his time. We would 100% recommend Julie to anyone and will certainly be back for another visit!”

“Taylor was great with Sparkle! She loved the place and had a great time playing with her daughter and the other dogs! I highly recommend her!!”

“Rebecca is fantastic! Stormy had a great day with her and felt right at home. After daycare, Rebecca dropped her off at my house (before I was home) and got her all settled for me. I came home to a happy and tired dog. I loved getting all the pictures and videos and updates!”

“Leah was amazing with my puppy! She watched him for the entire day on very short notice while I was working and even dropped him off at my house afterward. She sent lots of pictures throughout the day and was very communicative, responding quickly to messages. I felt completely comfortable knowing my puppy was in great hands. I’m so thankful she was able to accommodate us on such short notice and would absolutely trust her with my puppy again. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve owned and worked with dogs my whole life. I am the owner of a grooming salon and have worked in dog daycares as well as an animal hospital. We will treat your pups like our own! 🥰 We like to stick with what they are used to at home. Sleep on the bed? No prob! Snuggle on the couch? You got it! But if you have rules you are working on we are happy to help with those too. We have a large fenced in yard but the snow is high right now. So to be safe we are only taking dogs under 30 lbs. I have always specialized in senior dog care so if you have e an older buddy they are in good hands! ♥️Can’t wait to meet your pups! Also, we have 2 small dogs so yours must be ok with other pups. My husband and I both work from home so it’s easy for us to give the pups attention and care all day. Together we have plenty of time for walks, play, and snuggles! I have a large fenced in yard, but if you prefer walks that’s totally doable. I also have a Chinese crested mix and a Schnoodle who are very used to new dogs in the home. We also have baby chicks in the house until spring but they are in enclosures. In case your pup has a high prey drive, they can be moved to a safer area. 😆

“This was our first experience with Rover and a pet sitter, so we didn’t know what to expect. Karen has watched Daisy twice in the last week and did a fantastic job. Daisy was very comfortable with Karen and we will definitely look to use her in the future.”

About: 🔆Hi! You can call me Jordan! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 12 years of hands-on experience caring for both 🐶 and 🐱 I raised my own rescued dog and cat from just 1 month old and they’re now happy, healthy seniors — so I truly understand the patience, consistency, and love pets need at every stage of life. They’ve moved with me through five cities and three countries. I’ve never given up on them through any stage of my life. 👩‍🍳 I enjoy cooking nutritious and balanced meals for animals (sometimes for myself ) I love all animals and will learn more knowledge if you need cares for all kinds of pets (chickens, ducks, birds, pigs, etc) 💻 I have been working from home for over 6 years so I will be available everyday! Do not hesitate to contact me on any holidays. Available 7 days a week including all holidays🫡 I will strictly follow all instructions and offer detailed services for them. I will use all the pets knowledge I learnt from books and internet

“Colleen was amazing, super sweet and kind woman! Maya loved it at hers with all the snuggles which was so lovely. Her doggies are so friendly and welcoming to my little pup. Will recommend Colleen to anyone such a great person! Thank you”

“I was very happy with Emma's updates, pics and communication! My senior Chihuahua can be a bit anxious without me so I was relieved to see him settle in so easily!”

About: Hi! I'm very active during the day and super chill at night. I work a full time job but will spend breakfast, lunch, and dinner with your dog plus a 30+ minute walk/run. I like to curl up and watch tv or read a book after work and will cuddle with your dog. I have a Bernese Mountain Dog of my own, currently 7 months old and he loves meeting new dogs. I can always bring him with me or leave him at home to give your dog all my attention. I work from home so having an extra dog here is very easy. I am also able to get away and come to you to care for your dog. I have a fully fenced yard that my dog loves to run in. We can’t wait to have your dog over to play with Kevin!

About: I am a mom to a wonderful 4 year old boy! I am a server at the moment, also looking to fill up some of my free time by spending time with and looking after some pups and cats since I am not allowed to have my own full time at the place I currently live! I have been around animals almost my entire life, mainly dogs, but also cats; birds, ferrets, guinea pigs, and also a chameleon! When I was around 7 up until age 12, I helped my aunts take care of over 20 miniature pinchers, as well as a Doberman, 5 cats, 3 ferrets, and two birds! And afterwards, I’ve lived with three pups that have absolutely all of my heart. Since moving out of my parents a several years ago though, I only get to see my pups a few times a week, and god do I miss being around them for snuggles, walks, and playtime outside. I cherish every moment with them. I don’t currently have any pups living with me at my own place, the stars haven’t aligned quite yet to take in a dog of our own, which is why I’ve decided to become apart of this community so that I am able to still spend more time with pups and also help out others who need their’s watched and cared for! I know most dogs (and some cats depending on their mood aha) just need lots of love and attention, and it can be super nerve wracking for them to be away from their owners, but also nerve wracking for the owners to leave their pets with a stranger. Dogs and cats are more than pets, they’re family. Trusting in me to care and look after your pet is something that will never be overlooked, and I will do whatever I can to ensure that they are cared for and kept safe, as well as doing whatever is needed to give you complete piece of mind that your loved one(s) are in the greatest of hands✨ I look forward to meeting you and your pups or kittys!! I have Monday-Wednesday off, varying things going on during those three days so availability will vary! Fridays I’m available anytime after 4 ! Weekends I usually do doubles so I don’t have much time on those days Although I don’t have a fenced in yard, there are plenty of parks around for exploring and play time, as well as some yard space just right outside my home if you don’t feel comfortable with your pup being brought elsewhere! My place isn’t too big but my home is their’s for as long as they’re here! I can give baths if needed, walks, snuggles, and playtime!

From playful family pups to high-drive working and hunting dogs, I’ve trained, handled, and loved them all. My background includes obedience training, socialization, and behavior management, so I understand how to read a dog’s body language and respond to their needs with patience and precision. Whether your pup needs a structured walk, mental stimulation, or just a cozy companion while you're away, I tailor my care to fit their personality and routine. ✔️ Comfortable with large breeds, high-energy dogs, and special needs pets ✔️ Skilled in basic obedience and handling reactive behavior ✔️ Clean, respectful, and communicative—your home and pet are in great hands ✔️ Available for walks, drop-ins, overnights, and extended stays I treat every pet like family and strive to make your time away stress-free and positive for everyone. Let’s chat about how I can help you and your furry friend feel confident and comfortable—can’t wait to meet you both! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s something I truly enjoy and make time for every day. Whether it’s morning walks, training sessions, feeding schedules, or playtime, caring for animals is built into my life. With 15+ years of experience, I’ve developed a rhythm that keeps pets happy, healthy, and calm while their owners are away. I treat each visit or stay as a top priority, making sure every dog gets the attention, structure, and love they’re used to at home. Whether I'm watching one pup or a few, I organize my day around their needs—early walks, midday check-ins, evening wind-downs, and plenty of time for belly rubs and fetch in between! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, my goal is always the same: to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment that keeps your pet happy and comfortable. In My Home: I keep a clean, pet-friendly space where animals can relax and feel at ease. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any medication or special care instructions. I offer plenty of supervised outdoor time (in a secure area), mental stimulation, and downtime to keep pets balanced and stress-free. In Your Home: I respect your space and your pet’s routine. I make sure your pet gets the same love and structure they’re used to, whether that’s walks, playtime, meals, or snuggles on the couch. I’m tidy, trustworthy, and always communicate so you know how things are going while you're away. No matter where your pet is, I treat them like my own—with patience, kindness, and lots of tail wags.

About: Iv had pets my whole life and have pet sat for friends and family many times in the past. I live on the second floor so it might be hard for senior dogs unless they don’t mind being carried, I’m relatively strong so heavier pets won’t be a problem, I can provide puppy pads for puppies and have a large litter box that is sanitized between uses. I am not currently working so I have all the extra time in the world, My children are at school for 8 hours of the day so if your pet(s) prefer no kids the morning/afternoon would be best for you, they’re older and calm kids who love pets so if your pet is ok with kids they’ll get along great. I have an unfenced yard but not many neighbors, I have a fenced in balcony and lots of trails for walking dogs if that’s what they would like to do.

About: Hi! I’m Samara and I am a HUGE animal lover. I’ve been taking care of and been around sorts of animals since I was 13. From farm animals (chickens, goats, horses) to household pets such as dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles and fish. I have experience with many different breads as well as ages of animals. I am comfortable taking care of animals that need medications as well as I have cared for diabetic animals that need injections, seizure medication and eye meds. With my extensive background and love for animals I ensure I am always extremely attentive to their needs and behaviors. I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and any pet I care for, I treat it like my own. There is nothing more special than are furbabies and I want you to know that I will give them 110% care each and every time I care for them! I am a morning person and work from home. I have 1 young cat (who basically acts like a dog) in my home along with an 2 month old corgi pup and an 12 year old lab mix. Always make sure there are fresh, clean and filled water bowls! Sometimes on the weekend I will take them to a walking trail or dog park. I always ensure my pets are taken care of first and since I work from home it really allows me to cater my schedule around their needs. My animals are truly my world. Comfort is the most important part! A lot of our time is always great, off leash and the ability to be free and sniff around. I always keep and eye on the pets to make sure everyone is acting appropriately and behaving. I will send videos and pictures and make sure you are always kept in the loop on your pets status. I am also a very active person so enjoy going for walks and runs!
