“What a wonderful time my Sasha had with Dominic! Would recommend him to ANY dog owner! I felt safe as my girl was attended to, walked, cuddled and kept in a safe fenced in yard! Going to bring my girl back again for our next trip!”
“Caitlin was absolutely amazing! I was very nervous to have my dog staying somewhere I didn't know, especially because he's never been anywhere away from me for longer than a day. She was very quick to respond to my check in messages, which were quite frequent because I was so worried. She sent photo updates. She even clipped his nails for me! If I'm in need of her services again, I would definitely rebook. 10/10 recommend to anyone else!”
“Barbara and her family were wonderful. We left our elderly dog with them for just over two weeks. Barbara sent plenty of photos as well as updates on our dog's activity. She also has a nice big fenced back yard for our dog to play in. This is the first time we have used this service and we highly recommend Barbara. We will definitely use her again when we need to. Thanks Barbara for taking such great care of our dog!”
About: I’ve mostly cared for bigger dogs with a lot of energy. I regularly look after my friend’s pets as well as my family’s. I have a dog of my own, she’s very active and friendly. I’ve had her for over a year and learned so much about dogs from being a pet parent. I got to school part-time but I still have quite a bit of time throughout the day for check-ins. The weekends are best for boarding. I like to do dog walking throughout the week. I spend most of my time at home so I don’t mind hosting at my home but I’ll also do care at a client’s home. I do not have a fenced in back yard but I live in an area with a lot of parks and open spaces. I do spend a lot of time outside so I’m comfortable with going out for multiple walks a day. I don’t provide treats of my own unless the owner asks me too or if they tell me what they’re okay with their pet eating. I don’t give pets food I’m eating because I don’t want them to choke or they could get sick.
“Norma was an incredible dog sitter for my Orion. While I was out of state missing my sweet boy she sent daily updates and photos which made me feel so comfortable leaving him with her family. Orion had a blast and I know we will definitely use them again when we need someone to watch Orion.”
“Julia was awesome with our two girls. It’s hard enough to leave them and it helps to know they are loved and in good hands while we were away. Thank you, Julia!”
About: I've taken care of pets since I was young. I've always had a dog growing up! After moving to Sycamore in 1998, I moved into a farm. We had almost every farm animal, as well as cats. I've had all of my dogs from puppies until the end. Come summer, I am free all the time! I work at the school district! Just weekends are softball. My oldest is on a traveling team! I will follow what is needed to be done with your pet! Treat your pet like my own fur baby. Always lots of love and treats (if that’s okay with the treats lol)

I would definitely recommend Theresa!”
About: I have been in the doggy daycare and grooming industry for 5 years now! I have experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and behaviors. I am currently working part-time at a hospital. My hours are Monday-Friday 1pm-5pm. That being said, I have lots of time to spend with your beloved pup(s) and give them all the love and attention they need during their stay! I treat each clients home and pets with the same respect and love as I would my own. I have experience going into clients homes and retrieving free roam and crated dogs, and caring in-home and preforming walks with the instructions provided from owner!
