Dog Boarding Center Lisle

“Great, friendly service! I loved the pictures and updates. I’ve never seen my dog sad to leave a boarding stay but she literally turned around to give Alex a lick on her way out.”

“I dropped my 1 year old St. Bernard off with Steve and Patty to care for before going on a 7 day vacation. Steve was very professional and organized. It was obvious when I arrived at their home that they love dogs! Steve explained the process of his boarding at the 'meet and greet', then told me what I needed to bring when I returned to drop my pup off. The entire process went smoothly. I received updates with pictures of my pet while I was on vacation. By the looks of the pictures I think my dog had a better vacation with Steve and Patty than I did on my trip!! She seemed happy to see me on pick-up day but also wanted to go back to play with her new friends. I am extremely happy with Steve and Patty's service.”

“Our pup had a great time! He was very well taken care of and we were updated through out the day on his stay! We will bring him back for to Destiny for sure!”

“Andrea and her family were absolutely wonderful to our elderly pup during his first stay with them. They were extremely attentive to his behavior and needs, and totally proactive in sending me photos and reports on his stay. When I arrived to pick him up, I could see how well they had connected with him through their warmth and kindness. We are very grateful to them and already looking forward to his next visit!”

“Natalie took such exceptionally good care of Goose, and he and Leo had a great long weekend playing together and going on walks. Thank you for your care and attention to him and making him feel right at home :)”

About: I am a pre-veterinary student with a lifelong love of animals. I grew up caring for three dogs, which taught me how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I also have experience working in a veterinary office, where I gained valuable knowledge about animal care, behavior, and safety. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and will treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life since I have three dogs of my own. Feeding, walking, grooming, and playing with them is just built into my routine. I genuinely enjoy the structure and joy they bring, and caring for animals has become second nature to me. At home, I keep my dogs on a consistent routine with feeding, walks, play, and grooming. I’ll care for your pets the same way—with love, attention, and reliability, making sure they feel safe and happy while in my care.

“Amazing!! My dog usually doesn’t eat when I leave her cause she’s very shy, first time she came home with a full tummy! Always updated me, went on walks and felt at homeee!:)”

“Derick was able to take my dogs within just an hour or two of me sending a request, which was needed at the last minute. He took great care of my dogs, who came home happy and energized.”

“We were extremely pleased with the care and attention that Michelle gave to our dog Dixie. She took great care of our dog and when we came to pick her up, I think Dixie would have been happy to stay longer. The house, the accommodations and the caretaker were perfect for our dog and she was very relaxed when we came to pick her up. Michelle was a very good "fit" for us and Dixie. We definitely would use Michelle again.”

“Jessica and her husband are incredible care takers! We recently went on a trip and Jessica was sending tons of photos and messages on how our dog was doing which made us feel so at ease as we recently moved to Colorado! Thank you ??”

Laura S.

“Becca went above and beyond to take care of our dog blue while we were on vacation. Blue was boarding with Becca and her husband at their place. They would make Blue delicious, nutritious food everyday. The pure excitement in blue’s eyes when he sees the food shows in the pictures Becca send us regularly. We get multiple updates of blue everyday with tons of pictures. Becca and her husband even took blue to Ithaca falls and let him play in the water. Blue got exercised more than we asked for. Blue had problems with allergies during his stay with Becca, but they took good care of blue: wiping his paws after every walk, and feeding him medication hided in a cheese wrap everyday. If you want someone that’s attentive, treats your dog like their own dog, goes above and beyond to meet the individual needs of your dog, and send you updates constantly without you even needing to ask, choose Becca! My boyfriend and I are so grateful for Becca and her husband’s effort in taking care of Blue. They are the ones that made us relaxed enough to enjoy our vacation - knowing that blue is in good hands. She made it feel like that our dog was on his little vexation too.”

“I cannot recommend Katelynn enough! She took care of our diabetic cat, gave him injections, and cared for him like he was her own. We are so grateful!”

Kathryn H.

“Charlie had a great time and Megan kept us updated with pictures. She was incredibly flexible with us. Will definitely reach out to Megan again when we need a sitter.”

Mark Y.

“Coop had just a fun time! As happy as I was to have him come home, I know he was sad to leave his new friends! It was so cute to see Justin's little girl with his leash walking him!!! Besties for life!! Would recommend Justin and his family to anyone!”

About: I have 15 years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all temperaments — from confident, easy-going pups to anxious, shy, and reactive ones. I’m trained in reading dog body language, building trust, and providing calm, structured, loving care. Whether your dog needs extra space and patience or is a social butterfly ready for adventure, I meet them where they are so they feel safe, supported, and understood. Every dog in my care gets individualized attention, enrichment, and a secure environment Pet care isn’t something I fit into my routine — it is my routine. I do this full-time, which means your pet gets my full attention, flexible scheduling, and consistent care throughout the day. Right now, I’m focusing on dog walking and giving pups a safe, engaging, and positive experience on their daily outings. I have over 5 years of hands-on experience working in a shelter setting, working with all types of dogs — from social butterflies to anxious or reactive pups. Every walk is tailored to each dog’s needs, energy level, and comfort. I read body language, move at their pace, and provide structure, enrichment, and calm guidance. Your dog will get patience, safety-focused handling, and the same love and attention I’d give my own.

“Emily was fantastic with our dog, Noodle! We were only in town for the weekend for the wedding, but if I am ever in the area again, I would book with Emily again in a heartbeat! Our dog can be super shy around new people, and Emily made her feel at home right away! She sent pictures and videos which put my mind at ease that Noodle was settling in perfectly! She was extremely responsive and so caring for our fur baby! Cannot recommend Emily enough!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, with different energy levels and needs for decades. I’ve volunteered for rescues and fostered puppies and seniors. I am comfortable administering meds, giving baths, working on manners, caring for reactive pups, and will go out of my way to meet your dog’s needs. My flexible schedule gives me plenty of time for long walks and playing with pups on both weekdays and weekends (yes, I am very lucky). I will follow your instructions carefully to make sure that your pet is happy and safe. A pet’s safety is always my number one priority.

“Emily was wonderful. Ozzy was loved, and cared for. We got photos of him being cuddled and content where he had obviously worked his was up under her sweatshirt!💕 We will definitely use Emily again when we are in the area!”

“Vicki and her family treated our Ollie like family! We were so happy with his stay - regular pics and updates helped me feel at ease with being away from our new pup for five days. We knew he was in good hands, and you can sense that Vicki is a true dog lover. She was also flexible with travel delays and patient with my questions. Ollie got lots of attention and time to play in the fenced-in yard. He looks forward to running around again one day with his new buddy, Wyatt, and the family cat! Thank you, Vicki, for welcoming our dear Ollie into your home so warmly!”

“Adriana was amazing! She took care of Denis as he was her own. Provided pictures and updates via text! If we are ever back in the CNY we will definitely be contacting her to watch our boy.”
