Dog Boarding Braceville

“I was nervous about leaving him with someone he didn’t know for a long weekend, but Bridget did an incredible job! She made him feel like he was at home and he got plenty of exercise with her dogs. She updated me with photos constantly and was very responsive. 10/10 would recommend and would absolutely have her watch Caesar again!”

About: Hello my name is Ella for short. My love affair with animals began when I grew up with farm animals. In my adulthood I always had cats and a dog. At one point the cat distribution system blessed me with 9 cats plus a dog. Currently I have a large dog, 2 indoor cats and 1 outdoor cat. I've been though obedience training with my dog so I am able to introduce those skills to your dog or help cultivate them if your doggie already knows some. Currently I work from home so my schedule allows for frequent pee breaks as well as long walks around the neighborhood and surrounding area saying hello to my elderly neighbors and kids. Your pet is allowed on all furniture and will enjoy comfy and large bed of his own but my doggie enjoys a cuddle and is happy to share his bed as well. In the colder months pets can realx next to wood fireplace. Kitty cats have their own space in my house filled with toys, things to scratch and beds to realx in as well as heating pads. Pets enjoy frequent belly rubs and lots of treats.

“Elizabeth was amazing with our dog, Chief! She took great care of him while we were away and kept us updated so we knew he was doing well. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. She’s very kind, responsive, and clearly loves dogs. We would absolutely trust her to watch Chief again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”

“My stella had a nice time staying with them. I received text each day telling me how the night went. Even when I came to pick her up they were on a walk with her. I will use there service again.”

“Archer had a wonderful time at Karen’s. With his puppy behavior and not being around other dogs much I was a little worried. Karen was kind and reassuring. She kept me updated on his behavior through our trip. Archer settled in and made himself at home. She will be at the top of our list next time care is needed for Archer.”

“Renae was great with Billy! We met up before the stay to introduce the dogs and everyone was very friendly. She was also very flexible, offering to extend the stay when I was concerned my flights were going to be impacted by weather.”

“Spud had a great time with Enas and her family! She sent pictures and updates every day, made sure to keep his things in good order, and was accommodating to my flight schedule! We will definitely use her again in the future.”

“Debbie and Reggie did a great job with my dog Jake. They were flexible with pick up time when my return flight was delayed and I found Jake happy and well cared for. They sent me great pics throughout my vacation which gave me peace of mind that Jake was well cared for. I will book them again when I go out of town.”

“Julia was fantastic! She took such great care of my dog, did more than I even expected of her. And kept up with any questions I may have had while I was gone and updated me with photos. Would book again. I could tell my dog fell in love with her and her dog while I was away.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention | give every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, comfort level, and set of needs, and I take the time to get to know them rather than using a one size fits all approach. I'm experienced with dogs of different energy levels and personalities, including playful, high energy dogs as well as more laidback pups who prefer a quiet, relaxed environment. I'm comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication routines, and other instructions provided by their owners. I'm also patient with puppies who are still learning and happy to provide extra attention and structure to senior dogs who may need a slower pace or additional care. Most importantly, I treat pet sitting as more than simply stopping by to feed a dog. I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away, and I want you to have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I'm dependable, communicative, and will happily send updates and photos so you don't feel like you're missing out while you’re away. I work from home, which allows pet care to fit naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, regular potty breaks and walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods of time. My schedule also gives me flexibility to accommodate each pet’s individual routine, whether they need frequent breaks, scheduled meals, medication, extra playtime, or simply someone nearby to make them feel comfortable. I enjoy having pets around while I work and am happy to make their care an important part of my day. Please no dropoffs before 8am and no pick ups after 8pm. Thank you 😊 Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I want every pet to feel comfortable, secure, and treated like part of the family. I have a fenced in yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, play, and potty breaks without being exposed to traffic or other outdoor hazards. I’m also happy to follow each pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions from their owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and individual preferences. I keep a close eye on pets throughout their stay and make sure they have a clean, comfortable, and welcoming environment. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting a client’s home, I treat their space, belongings, and instructions with the same respect I would want for my own pets. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Note: If your pet is ill with a communicable sickness, please keep them home. I have two dogs in my home, and I greatly appreciate your understanding.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 8 years of hands-on experience in animal rescue. I’ve worked in kennel environments and currently serve as an intake coordinator for a rescue, giving me extensive experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. In 2025 alone, I fostered 45 animals, so I’m very comfortable handling a wide range of personalities, from shy and nervous to high energy pups. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pup and provide them with the care, attention, and exercise they deserve! I get off work at 3 most days so afternoon walks are best. I am a very active person so i am always walking with my dog. I have a dog friendly dog and a fenced in yard, i do not plan on having dogs in my home but can possibly if necessary.

“Wonderful experience and trustworthy host. Jasper was well cared for and would recommend.”

“Ana is the BEST. She accepted to take care of Jack on short notice. From the moment we arrived at her home I felt at ease and welcomed. Her attention to detail is amazing (I guess the engineer in her). I had mentioned how Jack loves walks so she made sure she walked him and gave him all the time he needed to sniff. I am very happy we found Ana and Jack looks forward to spending time with her soon.”

Mona K.

“Kelly was super responsive and so great with Herm. Her two small dogs were very sweet as well. I felt Herm was very well cared for and I would 100% recommend her!”

Laura W.

“Miss Susie was perfect!! My Bella was in great hands, as Miss Susie treated her as her own! From walks, playing, and the unlimited cuddles on the couch, Bella enjoyed every bit! We got lots of cute pics and messages reassuring us that Bella was being well cared for and loved! I'm happy to know I have the perfect sitter the next time we vacation! ?❤?”
