Doggy Day Care in Byron

“Tonja watched our two dogs for an afternoon. Tonja was consistent with communication, and was great with both our dogs including helping them feel comfortable in a new environment. Would have Tonja watch our dogs again and highly recommend. Both our dogs left happy and worn out from all the playing.”

Services Offered: Dog Walking: Energetic and engaging walks tailored to your dog's pace and stamina. Pet Sitting: Reliable in-home care, ensuring your pet’s routine is maintained just as you would. Drop-In Visits: Perfect for pets who need a quick check-in, feeding, or some playtime. House Sitting: I can look after your pets overnight in your home, providing peace of mind while you're away.

“Jennifer is simply amazing for both my dog and my piece of mind. In a single week of daycare, she has helped give my dog the confidence he needs to lessen his anxiety issues. Her communication is phenomenal. The pictures are adorable. The report cards are thorough and provides great suggestions, and she's very flexible with my crazy schedule. She is quite truly an angel, when we needed one the most!”

“Claudia is a loving, caring and responsible pet owner. She cared for my dog like he was her own. It's awesome that she has a backyard and the neighborhood is very nice. I also appreciate that she works from home so my dog always has someone around. You will really enjoy getting to know Claudia. She is a very caring person.”

About: What is life without pets? I have always had at least 1-2 dogs living with me. I dog sit for family and friends frequently and love giving animals the attention they deserve when their human is away. I work from home. I typically am on the clock from 8-4pm. I am lucky to have a job that allows flexibility as needed. I work next to my back door with views of the dogs outside if I'm inside at my desk. This also helps me pay attention to see if they need to go outside. I also take breaks to just visit with my dog and typically take him on lunch walks (if your pet is a good walker, let me know and they can come along!) I'm willing to try and accomodate your needs, just ask! I will only take house trained animals with no accidents in the past 6 months! I also cannot accept toy aggressive/possessive dogs. They also need to have been socialized with other dogs (preferably cats too). Please be courteous to your sitters and let them know of any behavior issues so we can keep all animals safe! I have a fenced in yard and a Bernedoodle named Bennie (he is socialized well and very docile) who would love to share his home with a play mate! I also have one cat who can be separated in her own sanctuary if needed. I treat animals like family. I believe they all have their own personalities and feelings that require individualized care.

“This was our first experience with Rover and leaving our dog with someone other than family. We wanted to find just the right fit and believe Jacqueline is just that. She is great at communication and sends many pictures to reassure us that our precious pup is doing well. In addition, she has a very kind and gentle way with the dogs in her care. Upon arrival to her home, our doodle dashes to the front door, tail wagging and is happy to join Mocha in play.”

“Hanna watched my Kira today. She sent me pictures and assured me that Kira was having a great time. She has a nice fenced yard and her dog Sadie is so sweet! Sadie also has the same amount of energy as my dog, they played well together. Kira is wiped out from today’s play day and can’t wait to see Hanna and Sadie again next week!”

Cherry J.

“Our Teddy made good friends with Brynn and her family! He had fun snacks and took a nice long nap when he came home so I know he must have had a good play day! I would leave teddy with Brynn again, absolutely!.”

About: I have always been around animal’s since I was a young girl and I cherish every moment of it. An animal’s love is like no other. I’m currently working part time and going to school, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups-doggy. I do in home boarding and I can dog sit. I have a fenced yard. A pool if they like to swim. I make homemade treat’s and I treat them like our own family’s fur baby.

About: I've had dogs all my life and also fostered 11 dogs thru Good Shepherds Rescue. (if I could have, would have adopted all 11) Currently I have no pets so I am available to give 100% of my attention to your furbaby(s) 😊 I'm currently working full time during the week. I am available after 5pm - till 10 pm, Monday thru Friday and all day*** Saturday and Sunday-June 5th thru August 4th off, will be available 24/7***- just give me a call!!

I will come to your place to meet you and your furbaby, get all details as to what the daily routine is and follow that plus lots of love and snuggles. I have paid for and received a 3rd party background check.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs every since I was a kid I grew up on a dog farm so they became a second family to me. It works pretty well I’m free most of the time now that Im retired.Im free Monday through Friday and on weekends.I can do anytime of the day. I have a fanced yard and I have a dog of my own that is very friendly to others and love to play and she can keeep your babies company as well.

About: I currently have two small dogs who I take care of full time. I’ve had them for 2 years now. I love playing with dogs, rubbing their tummy, or just hanging out with them. If your dog has separation anxiety that will not be a problem. One of my dogs is the same way and I wouldn’t mind being there full time for your dog. Pet care fits into my schedule perfectly because most of my days consist of being home taking care of my two small dogs. I’m also a nursing student so it helps that I have a lot of time after studying to play with the dogs/puppies. I have a fenced yard. It is pretty big. In order to keep my dogs safe I always make sure doors are closed before letting them out and as a special precaution I like to add an AirTag to their collars in case anything happens (has not happened yet but it’s better to be safe than sorry).

About: Get ready for your dog to be spoiled! I am the owner of a 7 acre mini Farm home! Your dogs will absolutely love it here! There are lots of trees around and beautiful grass for them to run around in here. I have always been a natural when it comes to pets, but specifically I love dogs, especially really big dogs! I have had dogs my entire life and I now have a small Shepherd Lab mix at home. I make it a priority to make sure that your dogs are well taken care of, well fed, have lots of fun, and get lots of exercise! So it's more than just a regular boarding/walking experience. Also I am a bit of a photographer so plan on getting lots of beautiful pictures of your dog on the farm from me during their visit. I also have two older daughters who are absolute animal lovers and will play and pet your pups consistently while they are here. I am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets, I an usually always home unless I am on a call for thr fire station. My land is not fully fenced off so If need be I will have to walk pups on a leash which is not a problem at all.

About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was a baby, and they are a huge part of my family. I also have experience dog and cat sitting for family friends and neighbors, as well as dog walking. I love animals and am looking forward to helping pet owners in my community! I am new to the area and looking for summer work, so I have a very open schedule! I am open all week at various times, so just communicate with me to find a time that works best. I will treat your home with care and take care of your pet like it is my own! I can house an animal at my house for a day, however I do not have a crate or dog bed.

About: I always go above and beyond to make sure pets are well taken care of, worn out and loved! I have had 4 dogs in the past and have taken well care of them. I’m looking forward to meeting & bonding with new pets! I am home full time so your dogs will have plenty of love & care throughout the days. I have a fenced in yard so they can play in a spacious area without having to be tied up ! I am home full time so there will be no accidents, mishaps or issues and if there were any issues I’d make sure to text you and or go to an emergency vet if needed.

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since i started volunteering at the animal hospital in freeport il. I started doing that when i was ten years old. I have attended just under two years of schooling towards being a zoologist in the past as well. I started fostering with my grandma when i was 14, and I have successfully adopted out 12 pit bulls that would have been put to sleep :) I have pet sit since i was old enough to babysit kids, my grandparents on my dads side were missionaries and would always have me take care of their three cats Lucy,linus, and peanut. I have also helped Noah's ark and Winnebago country with fostering off and on for many years (20 ). I look forward to snuggling your pooch! I work for myself, and can usually be be available almost anytime you need me to be. I am a very responsible and responsive person. I have a fenced yard, harnessed leads and two smooshy olde English bulldogs to keep your fur baby company. I also have cats they can play with , my cats aren't scared of dogs.

“Henry had a fantastic stay on his first day here. It’s hard to wear him out, but he was exhausted after his day there which to me means he had a Lotta fun!”
