Pet Boarding Collinsville

About: I’ve trained multiple dogs for obedience & hunting, which I’ve dedicated several months to do for each pup. I have a 10 year old Chesapeake Bay Retriever that’s very well trained and well behaved. I work from home, so I’m here all day unless I go out for something at the store or gym. If gone, I always let the dog roam free and keep the tv on for him. Naturally I play with the pup several times a day. My office is connected to the backyard, so I can throw the ball or play often. I have no issues letting the dog outside whenever they’d like.

“Heather sent photos every day and videos so I knew my dogs were enjoying themselves. Beautiful fenced in yard made play time fun and safe. Quick communication, easy drop up, and willing to change pick up time. I would recommend her for all dog parents!”

“Thank you for taking care of Hershey while I was on a trip out of the country. This was her first time boarding with someone privately, and I could tell her had a good time and was happy.”

About: I provide loving, attentive pet care, ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while maintaining routines, exercise, feeding schedules, individualized attention, and clear owner communication. (Bilingual) Habló español Pet care fits into my routine part-time and per diem, allowing me to dedicate quality time, flexibility, and focused attention to each pet without feeling rushed. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I keep environments clean, safe, calm, and provide regular updates to owners for peace of mind.

“Prompt communication, asked tons of questions and to give my dog the best experience. He came home tired and happy! Will definitely use Sonya again!”

“Elizabeth has provided the best dog boarding service for my baby boy. I am not exaggerating either. I showed a lot of concern at first, due to a prior bad experience. In return, she was extremely understanding, kind and supportive. She has very welcoming energy and a very sweet personality. Also, her pup Ohana was cute and made the whole process easier. I would absolutely book Elizabeth again for more services in the future!!! Thank you! 10/10 🙂”

“Mayra was wonderful! She treated my girl like she was hers. My Clover is very shy and doesn’t usually cozy up to people right away. But she did with Mayra and her family; she felt right at home. Mayra communicated the whole time with updates and pictures of how Clover was doing.”

“Destini is the best with my dog Zinni! This is my second time boarding my pup with Destini and it won’t be my last. She’s so great about communicating and sending lots of pictures and videos showing how happy my girl is during her stay.”

Sarah B.

“Ariadne was amazing! Probably one of the best sitters we’ve had! She took such good care of my dogs, she was super communicative and caring. Will definitely book with her again”

Karishma M.

“April took great care of Elliot, she sent pictures almost every day and was very accommodating to when my flight got delayed. Would definitely recommend :)”

Rachel C.

“I left my dogs with Nazim for the first time this past weekend, and I am so happy that I did. Nazim was flexible and kept us updated with pictures and videos of my happy dogs. And he has the best yard ever!!”

Melissa W.

“Jacob was awesome! Took great care of Chai for a week and even helped us out when we had an unplanned delay in picking her up. Will definitely be asking him to look after her again.”

Katherine A.

“Sarah was amazing! From the beginning, she was very responsive to all of our questions about the booking. Our dog tends to be shy and can sometimes be aggressive with other dogs, but Sarah made it work, and our dog got along with hers right away. She sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. Our dog was very happy during her stay! We will definitely book with Sarah again and highly recommend her as a dog sitter.”

“Oh my goodness, where do I start?! I was terrified to leave my 5 year old Frenchie with anyone while I went on a family cruise because he had just been prescribed daily meditation for severe back pain. My friends and family all had plans so I took my chances and turned to Rover.com. I read through a ton of reviews and finally chose Briana. Boy, am I GLAD I did??!! I feel like I hit the jackpot!!!!!! Briana was a true God send!!! From the very first text interaction, I knew she was the one! She asked ALL the right questions and even offered to do a meet and greet beforehand! She was warm, inviting and extremely responsive before we had even met. Her home is beautiful and immaculate, and my baby felt right at home with her and her loving family! She stayed in contact, sent pictures and videos and was just as much of a “nurse” as I am with his daily meditation and TLC!! She even went the extra mile to get him more fresh food because I accidentally didn’t pack enough (the joys of packing an entire family for a cruise will sometimes make you forget about the family pets needs😩😂). When my Frenchie was leaving her home, he turned around a dozen times (in his own way of saying goodbye) and even watched her home from the car window as we drove way— which was a sign that he was loved and cared for enough to feel sad to leave them. THAT was my sign to add her to my contacts list as his forever dog sitter!! I CAN NOT RECOMMEND HER ENOUGH!!!! If you’re looking for a “second family” for your fur baby, SHE should be choice!!! I am SO glad I made the perfect decision for him,AND us as a family!! Gift yourself the peace of mind you need while you’re away and chose this sitter. Thank me later!!! 😜”

“Laura and her family were wonderful with our 2 year old dog Jojo and 18 year old cat Abbi! Jojo has spent very little time away from us and is pretty attached, but she had a great time playing with all of the other dogs that live there and were boarding or visiting over her 5 day stay. We haven't prioritized socialization with other dogs as much as we should so it was great for her to have a chance to be with other dogs. We quickly felt very confident that Laura had a good sense of all of the dog's temperaments including Jojo's and that Jojo would be safe and happy. She eased Jojo into the bigger play yard and watched her interact with some of her own dogs who she knows best first before introducing her to the rest. Abbi our cat is a senior lady who is pretty social and easy going and I don't think demanded much, but Laura was gushing about how sweet she is in texts. It felt good to know that she was getting attention and being appreciated. Jojo came back to us happy and tired having thoroughly enjoyed her time at what felt like sleep away camp for dogs. We are so glad to have discovered Laura and plan to use her again without a doubt!”

“We couldn’t have asked for our doggie to be more loved and cared for. We just moved from California and were nervous about leaving our pup for the first time since the big move, but Katelyn and her family were absolutely wonderful. They sent photos to keep us posted and he looked perfectly comfy and at home in each. We are so grateful to have found Katelyn and would recommend her to others without hesitation. Our dog came back to us as though he had been on a retreat! Calm, happy, and himself.”

“Caitlin was an amazing sitter for our dog Steve! During our pup’s 10-day stay, Caitlin provided picture and video updates to help us know he was safe and happy. When we picked him up, Steve was so relaxed and happy (way more so than when we used to keep him at the kennel). It was clear that Caitlin truly cared about making sure Steve's stay was comfortable and close to his normal routine. Her young kids were so gentle and kind with the dog, and we never had any concerns. I definitely recommend Caitlin!”

About: I have experience with animals who have special needs. It can be stressful thinking about leaving your pet. Especially if they are on a special diet or in need of medication. I know how important this is to follow. I work full time with 2 days off a week. However, I live just 10 minutes away from work. I am able to check on your pet during my lunch break. I only take one animal in at a time, unless they are from the same household. I live in a condo. We have plenty of sidewalks and grass areas to walk your fur baby. I will make sure they have their feedings, and leave out water during the day. We will watch TV together in the evening. At bedtime I allow the animal to sleep in bed with me. I want your pet to feel like this is their second home.

“We have used Renee several times for both our cat and our dog. She has been absolutely amazing to work with. She takes great care of them and they are always happy when they come home and not stressed. I appreciate her level of communication, speedy responses and that she is great at updating us.”

“This was the first dog sitting experience for our standard poodle Belle. We're very happy with how it turned out. Belle had a great stay with Margaret and an adventure spending the week with her dog Maple. Belle is a picky eater and Margaret kept us up to date on how she was eating through the rover chat. We also enjoyed getting the daily updates with pictures of Belle and Maple together.”
