Dog Boarding in East Peoria

“Melissa was my first choice for a week-long boarding. She treated Kit like a family! Kit gets to roam and social with Melissa’s dogs. Melissa sent pictures and communicated with me and I really appreciate that. I would definitely book with Melissa again.”

“Thank you, Kortney!! You are simply the BEST!! 💖 Brave always comes home so happy and we know he was loved on and so very well taken care of!! 🥰🐾”

“Trevor took excellent care of my dog while I was out of town for over a week. I received regular updates and was always happy to see that my dog was doing well under his care. Highly recommended.”

“De’Aysia was a wonderful caregiver for our puppy & both of her beautiful pooches gave him a warm welcome. She took care of our lil guy like he was one of her own, you can tell she genuinely cares and loves working with animals. I loved getting the little video updates about how our pup was getting along with all in the new environment. I know he was given a fair amount of attention & was loved in his time here. It was such a better alternative to the typical boarding options where I think he might have spent much of the time kenneled. It was like a doggy slumber party, our pup came home happy & pooped from all the fun & play! We’ll definitely want to utilize De’Aysia again to care for our pup when we need to be away.”

“Khanh is definitely a 5 star dog sitter. She did everything and more to make Sammy comfortable. I was totally taken away with her love and caring for my best buddy. She communicated with me almost daily during the stay and provided pictures of Sammy's activities. She provided medical care for Sammy that had been prescribed by my Veterinarian. She is the most loving, caring person- Thanks a million Khanh Darold Irvine”

“Took pictures daily and kept me updated! Pups definitely had fun. Thanks again for treating them like your own while they were there ❤️”

“September did a fantastic job taking care of Oliver while I was away. She was so sweet and sent regular updates during his stay. I will definitely book with her again. Thank you so much for keeping Oliver happy and safe!”

“Ashley and her family were amazing. When I picked my dog up I could tell that he had loved his time with them. My dog was blind and on several medicines and needed insulin shots. They took care of all of that and sent me some great pictures of my pupper.”

“Abby is AMAZING! We were in a bit of a last minute search to find a place to board Teddy and we are so thankful Abby was available to watch him this past weekend. She took great care of him, took him on long walks, and made him feel right at home. We also loved getting multiple pictures and updates each day about how Teddy was doing. A great Rover not only takes great care of your dog, but provides an environment where you're not even worried about your dog and Abby does just that. Would LOVE to book with her again!”

“Karen was amazing!!! She's so good at doing what she does and the setup for dogs was perfect!!! I highly recommend her. I didn't worry about my fur babies at all. She sent pictures and gave me updates. They were very comfortable in her home and I will definitely use her again if I have to go up to Atlanta!!”

“We were so happy with the care Kristine and her family gave our dog. He was pampered and loved playing in the fenced yard. He even got some dog-friendly bday cake. Our dog is blind so he needs a little tlc and he was definitely given that. We highly recommend and will use again.”

“Hayley was most accommodating, offering to care for Chippy at a penultimate time point, a life-saver!”

“Good communication. Fenced yard. Dogs of all kinds welcome - accepting of accommodations & personalization. Great experience for our two pups!!”

“Excellent! We've used Lola many times now and just love her and her family. They take great care of our 2 pups and always keep us updated with messages and pictures. I definitely recommend her!”

“Vanessa is incredibly kind and loving towards all living things, including sweet fur babies. She has had dogs throughout her lifetime and has taken pride in raising them to be healthy, happy, and safe. She has helped me take care of my pets while I have been out of the area, and I always knew they were well loved and taken care of. If you need someone to take care of your precious animals, Vanessa is a wonderful option for you to utilize!”

“Why do I think Kenzie would be a responsible pet caregiver? Since I can remeber the love that she has for animals is priceless. In our family we call her the dog whisper because no matter what the temperment of the dog she can always manage to get that dog to sit in her lap. When she was 16 she was driving to her sisters house and a cat ran out in front of her on her sisters road, Kenzie stopped got out of her car sat in the road with the cat making sure the cat was ok (and it was) for over an hour because she felt so bad. She used to go to the local shelter in town to visit the animals because the sad looks on there faces in pictures broke her heart. I was always afraid we would end up with 8 dogs because they "followed her home" . When it was time to put our family dog down she sat on the deck with my husband petting him and telling him everything was going to be ok that he was going to a better place it was one of the hardest things I have ever watched . She has a heart of gold but when it comes to animals that heart of gold is triple in size. She has dog sat for my parents, my husband and I. The only thing she has ever wanted to do is take care of animals, her eyes light up everytime she sees a dog, cat , horse , anything she migrates to them. She is very responsible adult she puts her animals lives above her own. I watched her birth and raise for 8 weeks 18 puppies, by herself, she stated up all night to try and save 2 of the puppies that were runts as she was feeding them with a syringe. She did very well at this and made sure all the puppies went to very good homes and I believe she still has contact with most of them. I would highly recommed Kenzie to anyone stranger or friend.”

“I haven't heard Fritz complain, so we certainly won't! Michelle and Caleb took wonderful care of our dog while we were away, made sure to send pictures and updates often and were so easy to work with! We will be boarding with them again!”

About: In addition to living with a dog and 5 cats over the last 20 years, I've also fostered more than 60 pets from an animal shelter and two rescues. I've handled cats and dogs of all ages and with various behaviors and health conditions. I love cats and dogs equally, and as my household currently does not include a dog, I get so much joy from caring for the canine family members of others! I am an active person who walks several miles daily and I would love to have your furry family member along when I go out on a walk, to get some exercise, socialize, and enjoy the outdoor environment. I have a flexible schedule and am prepared to meet varying needs for walks, play, feeding, meds, and grooming of your wonderful furry family members. I have a fenced yard and currently indoor cats only. I can transport your dog(s) for walks and exercise or grooming care, or come to your home for play and exercise in your yard or home. Shy, older, and young pets are all safe and loved with me. I am experienced with very shy and nervous animals and also with energetic, young ones. I am willing to work with pets who need some guidance on heeling, walking on a leash, and some basic commands. Under no circumstances do I use verbal or physical punishment on any animal, only positive reinforcement and encouragement.

“Kori was great! She truly is an animal lover. She and her husband were very accommodating to our fur babies. I enjoyed the photos and reports she gave me on how they were doing, made me feel at ease. She is also not afraid to contact you if she feels there is any concern on your pets. Thank you Kori for all you do and we will not hesitate to contact you the next time we need you! You are awesome!!”

“Rachelle was accommodating and responsive at all times. We met before my dog stayed in her home to make sure she and her dog got along well with mine. She made myself and my dog feel comfortable throughout the whole process. She kept me updated with how my dog was doing while he was there. I would recommend her to friends and family and will definitely be taking my dog there next time I need a sitter.”
