Doggy Day Care in Belmont Cragin, Chicago, IL

“Laura & Charlie took amazing care of my dog during her first daycare!! I really appreciated how they invited us into their home for the M&G so we could see the space she will be hanging out in. They were respectful & accepting of my dogs triggers / stranger danger and followed our instructions for the initial intro. They respected her boundaries and took it slow. For the actual daycare, they sent multiple photo/video updates and had excellent communication. Laura & Charlie are loving dog people with an incredible home. Highly recommend!”

“Ruben was nothing short of awesome! I was running late to drop my dog and extraordinarily late to pick her up and he was accommodating. Ruben has great communication and shared pics throughout the day. I highly recommend and will definitely use his services again.”

About: Hi there! I’m a proud dog owner of 10+ years. I had my first dog when I was in middle school and have grown passionate for caretaking ever since! I have lots of experience with different breeds: from tiny chihuahuas to fluffy huskies, to energetic golden retrievers. Thanks to Rover, I have also had the opportunity to meet and look after cats of all ages! Just like your pet, I enjoy going on walks around the neighborhood and park. In short, I love being outdoors -something I bet your dog loves too. My goal is to ensure your pet is safe, cuddled and loved while you are away. 🥰 I work from home part time which gives me the flexibility to provide potty breaks, play time, cuddles or feedings as needed by your pet. At home, I have a large, fenced-yard where pets are never left unattended. I have a dog of my own who enjoys playing with others to keep company.

About: I am an enthusiastic pet lover who is seeking to help others with taking care of their beloved pet needs! I love to keep active and walking, as well as hiking, is one of my favorite leisure activities! I will make sure that your pet, no matter the size and age, gets the exercise he or she deserves from our walks! I am extremely flexible and follow directions very well. I always want to make your pet feels at home and with comfort, so if that means I am pet sitting in your home, I will follow your pet's schedule and individual needs accordingly to make sure he or she is taken care of and is having the most positive experience! I’m currently taking a break from my full time job of teaching middle school. I am a yoga instructor and I am an English tutor as well. I love to stay active during my free time! I have a fenced yard to keep your dog safe. I have a cat who is friendly but he can also be caged if needed.
