Dog Boarding Braceville

“Daniel & Rachel are amazing boarders. They took such great care of my Rottweiler Mia. I had an issue with timing for drop off/ pick up and they were very accommodating. This was Mia's first time being boarded. They took excellent care of Mia for all those days and during that time even were able to introduce her to leash walking which she had never done as she uses an invisible fence on my property and had never been leashed. They even provided information on the exact harness that was used, and I bought my own. Besides how great they took care of her providing her with toys, interaction, attention, and walks I also received daily pics of Mia playing, going to the dog park, etc. They kept me apprised as to how she was doing making my time away worry free & less anxious. If you desire individual care & attention for your dog then Daniel & Rachel are definitely the top choice! Excellent people and excellent communication!”

“Hayley did a great job taking care of my dog. She kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout his stay. Not only was she great with my pet, but also did an amazing job communicating with me especially being flexible when I needed some help. I would love her to take care of my dog again.”

“Excellent sitter. Kaitlin provided pictures throughout our dogs stay, and was quick with her replies to any question I might have. She has a wonderful fenced in yard. Will surely use her services again.”

“Ronda watched our baby for over a week and treated him as her own. She sent pictures and updated us on how he was doing. She was very flexible when we had a delayed flight and kept him for another night since we got in so late. Our baby came home happy and tired from having fun! He really enjoyed the fenced in yard and lots of attention he got while he was there.”

“Kristen was AMAZING! She truly cared for our sweet boy. She went above and beyond. We got pictures every day, updates, and she even sent home a care package for him! I would recommend Kristen to anyone!!!”

“Chelsea was amazing with our 2 golden retrievers. She made them feel right at home so much so that they slept on her couch (which I don’t even permit in my home😊). Her son was also our younger one’s best friend as he tirelessly threw the ball for her! She sent many pictures and updates and was so sweet when talking about them. We already have her booked for another visit and undoubtedly will use Chelsea again. She is a true animal lover!”

“Our 12ish year old coonhound Howard just got home from his first stay with Karma for the weekend. She made sure he took all his medicine and checked in to let us know how he was doing. I felt so much better with him at her house than at a boarding facility, especially as he gets older. He loves getting all the investigative sniffs in her large fenced in yard!”

About: I have always had pets . I grew up helping my mother groom and take care of dogs. I would do anything for an animal. I am available all 24/7 everyday. I am willing to work any day of the week. I am availability because this is my only job, and I am passionate. I have been lucky enough to be raised with dogs my entire life. My family were breeders for standard poodles at one point, which was amazing to watch and learn about. I am no stranger to special needs, administering meds, able to provide short term care until help arrives. I love all dog breeds equally and will treat your dog like my own. This is my passion. I have 2 guest rooms that can be turned into private doggo apartments. If your pets need exercise I can provide. If they need relaxation, I love cuddles on the couch. We have crates of all sizes, beds for any size dog, dog gates for stairs, enough rooms to spread out and separate if needed, and live minutes away from a fenced in dog park. We live 3 minutes from 2 vet clinics and we use them for our own dogs. We have security cameras in the house with 2 way speakers if we need to step out for any reason. Please let us know about your dogs temperament with other dogs ahead of time. If your dog has special needs or quirks around certain people. We are happy to share our dogs food but would prefer food is delivered with the dog for stays. We are used to dogs that have a tendency to run if given the chance but appreciate heads up so we can be extra attentive.

“I can't say enough wonderful things about Kim!! She was the perfect fit for my 8yr old Mal-Shi, Ella. She took such good care of my anxious little girl, giving her lots of love & comfort, as well as paying attention to the details of her care. She absolutely treated her like the queen that she is.”

“Beth and Ed were great. It was my first time leaving my furbaby and I really felt at ease with them. Beth sent me updates and pictures everyday. I highly recommend them!”

Sue G.

“Kelli was willing and able on 24 hours notice. My puppy is always excited to see her and comes home happy. We’re very fortunate to have such a great puppy sitter.”

William S.

“Jalaina did a great job looking after my dog Baxter. Typically, I board him with a kennel, but he hates being in a cage and restricted. Jalaina was all I could have hoped for. She sent numerous pictures of Baxter that allowed me to have peace of mind when I needed a last minute sitter and a “homey” environment for Baxter. He warmed up to her immediately and even got comfy on her couch. Also, she walked him daily and when I picked him up he wasn’t anxious as he has been in kennel environments. I almost forgot to mention that she watched my Mom’s dog as well in the same weekend. We wanted to board them together because they are with each other most days. I can’t say enough about Jalaina and her sweet and gentle spirit which is why I think both dogs had such an enjoyable stay and I will not hesitate to book her again.”

“Amanda and her husband were angels! We have a special needs cat, and they didn’t even bat an eye at the over and above attention that Orange needed. He was loved and taken care of and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing he was safe. Best Rover out there!! We will be return customers for sure! Thank you!!!!!”

Jennifer S.

“Very kind, understanding and accommodating. He will absolutely be our go to person to care for Jasper. If you want to breathe easy and know your dog is being cared for and having fun, Ben is who you want watching your dog. I loved seeing pictures of Jasper making new friends or just relaxing super close to Ben. Jasper is a very close snuggler and it was nice to see he could snuggle and be in his happy spot.”

Jenny E.

“Kate is wonderful! Easy to work with as far as drop of and pick up. Sends lots of updates and photos. She understands some dog psychology so knows when your dog is uncomfortable or nervous. Her dogs are great and you can tell it’s a calm happy household.”

About: I have spent my life caring for and loving dogs! I’ve raised many dogs of my own and have also helped my children care for their puppies over the years. I currently have two Golden Retrievers, a Bichon Poodle, and a Yorkshire Terrier. Throughout my life, I’ve raised and cared for Vizslas, Shih Tzus, Labradors, mixed breeds, and more. Anything from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs. This experience has made me comfortable caring for dogs of all different sizes, personalities, activity levels, and life stages. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’ll care for your dog with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own. I currently work as a mail carrier, typically from about 7 AM–1 PM. I’m an early bird, so I’m happy to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, feeding, or playtime before I leave for work. I’m usually home for the rest of the day after work, which gives me lots of time for walks, outdoor time, play, and cuddles with your pup! Outside of my work hours, I’m home most days and love spending time in my yard with my dogs, so caring for another pup fits naturally into my everyday routine. I have a large yard with plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors, as well as a secure lead for pups who love spending time outside. I am also used to walking dogs on lease so that would be no issue at all. I’m typically outside in my yard every morning and again in the afternoon (sometimes through the evening) when I get home, so your pup will have plenty of opportunities for fresh air, playtime, and supervision. My dogs are total lovebugs and are used to sharing their home with other pups! My Golden Retrievers, Dale and Luke, enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes and would be happy to have another friend around. For smaller or younger dogs, my Yorkshire Terrier, Lucy, is just under a year old and loves having a playmate. (Sam, my Bichon poodle is around 16 years old so he doesnt play very much lol). My dogs tend to follow me wherever I go, and your pup would be welcome to join our little crew! I know every dog has a different personality and comfort level, so I’m happy to follow your normal routines and preferences. If your pup needs some quiet time, prefers their own space, or needs to be separated from the other dogs at any point, I can safely crate them or provide space away from the group based on your instructions. Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable leaving your pup with me. I’ll treat them as part of the family while respecting the routines, boundaries, and care instructions you provide.

“I am thankful I found Ann. She is exactly what I have been looking for. I will definitely use her again.”

“Lorie is terrific! The dogs were well cared for and safe in her home and fenced yard. We felt welcomed upon arrival and the dogs were ready for us with their things packed for departure.”

Jim M.

“Hanna was great with our pup during our weekend trip. Many pictures and updates kept us worry free while we were on the road. The beautiful scenery on her farmland makes for a great place for any furry friends to relax and play. Our girl will definitely be back with Hanna during our next adventure!”
