Doggy Day Care Elgin

About: Hi, My name is Mia. I have about ten years of experience working with animals from animal shelters to vet clinics. I have experience fostering over fifty pets, including bottle babies and pets with special needs. I currently work as a legal assistant. M-F 10:00-5:00. PLEASE ENSURE YOU BOOK WITH ENOUGH TIME FOR A MEET & GREET TO BE SCHEDULED PRIOR TO MY FIRST VISIT. This is for my safety and the safety of your pets. I am always open to negotiation, but please keep in mind this helps pay my bills. I do have my own dog, but if your dog needs to stay overnight in my home, they will be kept separate. I am very responsible and would love to meet you and your fur babies. If you have any questions, please ask me :) Can’t wait to meet you. I work 10-5, but I work from home. Visits before and after are easy when in Elgin or nearby. If I pet sit at home, I will keep separate from my pet. It depends on what is needed, per the pets needs. I am happy to stop by, clean up, let them out and feed during visits.

About: I have my own dog Zoe who I currently care for. She was potty trained, crate trained, and house trained starting at 8 weeks. I’m free all day for your pets needs. I have open availability through the week. I’m free to care for and entertain your pet through out the day. My dog Zoe would love to have a play date with your dog. I have a fenced in yard and a big neighborhood that will allow your dog to get fresh air and nice walks. My neighborhood dog park is also just right down the street from my house. I have a medium sized crate that is available for your pets use while staying.

“Raquel was the perfect pet sitter! She was very friendly and accommodating. I received plenty of photo and video updates during my puppy’s stay and she looked like she was having a great time. I especially appreciated her sending many pictures of her interacting with my puppy, I know she received plenty of attention during her stay. I would highly recommend this pet sitter!”

“Amber was very flexible and accommodating. My pup is just starting to socialize and Amber did great get him along with her two doggos. Would recommend Amber to anyone!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs through both owning my own dogs and providing boarding for other families’ pets. Caring for dogs has been a meaningful part of my life, and I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding, daily walks, playtime, crate routines, basic grooming, administering oral medication, and caring for senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. Because I care for only one to three dogs at a time, I can provide personalized attention in a calm, low-stress environment. My home has a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and relax under close supervision. I understand that every owner wants to know their pet is happy and safe. That’s why I provide regular photo and video updates throughout each stay and follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel at home. My goal is to give every dog a safe, loving, and comfortable experience while giving their family complete peace of mind. Welcome! I’m a dedicated dog lover who provides a safe, comfortable, and loving home where your dog will be treated like family. I live in a single-family home with a fully fenced backyard, giving dogs plenty of room to play, explore, and enjoy fresh air in a secure environment. Because I spend most of my time at home, your dog will receive lots of attention, supervision, companionship, and affection throughout the day. I intentionally accept only one to three dogs at a time so every guest receives personalized care instead of being part of a large group. I understand that every dog has different needs. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, a senior dog, or requires medication, I’ll carefully follow your instructions and maintain their regular routine. My goal is to make your dog feel relaxed, happy, and loved while you’re away. You’ll never have to wonder how your dog is doing. I’ll send multiple photo and video updates every day so you can enjoy your trip with complete peace of mind, knowing your best friend is having a wonderful time. For your convenience, I also offer pick-up and drop-off services. I speak both English and Mandarin Chinese, making communication easy for both English-speaking and Chinese-speaking families. Your dog’s safety always comes first. I provide a clean, calm, smoke-free, pet-friendly home where every dog is cared for with patience, kindness, and respect. I truly enjoy building trust with both pets and their families, and I look forward to welcoming your furry friend into my home. Thank you for considering me. I can’t wait to meet you and your beloved companion! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my highest priorities. I live in a clean, smoke-free single-family home with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play under my supervision. I never leave dogs unattended outside, and I make sure they have a secure, comfortable indoor space to rest and relax. I only accept a small number of dogs at a time so I can provide each pet with plenty of individual attention and closely monitor their behavior. I carefully follow each owner’s feeding schedule, exercise routine, medication instructions, and any special care requests to help pets feel comfortable and maintain their normal routine. Before introducing dogs to one another, I consider their personalities and comfort levels to ensure a safe and positive experience. If needed, I can keep dogs separated to reduce stress and provide one-on-one care. Throughout your pet’s stay, I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you always know how they’re doing. If I notice any changes in your pet’s behavior or health, I’ll contact you immediately and follow your instructions. If an emergency ever occurs, I will seek veterinary care right away and keep you informed every step of the way. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, low-stress environment where every pet feels at home and every owner feels confident and reassured.

“She was amazing. Betty responsive and more importantly my Luna came home with a big smile on her face. Will definitely be using her services again.”

About: We both grew up with dogs of various sizes and love all animals. We have over 13 years of experience with caring for our own dogs, one of which has allergies and anxiety and requires routine medications. We will treat and love your dog as our own! Because of my WFH schedule, I have lots of flexibility to provide potty breaks, play with, and walk your pup throughout the day! I will stick to their routine and provide pictures and updates during their stay. We have a spacious home with a fenced backyard and a sweet 8 year-old dog, Rylee, who loves other dogs. We have used Rover for over four years, so we understand how important it is to find a sitter you can trust to love and care for your fur baby like you do. We are responsible pet parents who prioritize their comfort, safety, and needs. **Please note: we require a meet and greet prior to all new client bookings to ensure the dogs get along and to answer any questions you may have.

About: I have been a dog mama for over 15 years to 2 of the best girls. Both have passed now and while we would love to add another fur baby to our family, we are taking a break while raising our two tiny humans! Our most recent fur baby just passed 2 months ago, and we are looking to love on your sweet babies to bring some of that joy back into our home! We are very familiar with special skin care, medication, special diet needs, and separation anxiety! I'm a stay at home mom, so they will have lots of play and attention, walks around the neighborhood, especially to the local duck pond, as well as plenty of potty breaks in our big backyard! I'm a stay at home mom, so I'm available all day to take your fur babies for walks, let out for potty breaks, and get lots of play and attention! I have two kiddos who love dogs and love to play! I also have a good sized fenced in yard for running and potty breaks! I can provide a kennel if needed! My home is peaceful, and fully outfitted with security!

“Cassandra was awesome! Very communicative and she has a great property for dogs to roam around and play. When we’re in that area again, we will call her first.”

“I have an energetic puppy dog and Brenda has been great in helping him learn to stay calm around and older, smaller dog. Everyday that I come to pick him up, he's in a great mood and she even sends me pictures of him throughout the day of him playing and having a good time in the backyard and sleeping in his puppy bed. I couldn't ask for a more responsible individual to care for my puppy. 10 out of 10, would book again!”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced dog owner and caregiver with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs. I’ve worked with dogs ranging from small (3 lbs) to medium/large (up to 60 lbs), including puppies as young as 4 months and senior dogs requiring medication and extra care. I work fully remote, which means your dog will have consistent supervision and won’t be left alone for long periods. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, attention, and a steady routine throughout the day. I live in a clean, pet-friendly home with a large fenced yard where your dog can safely play and relax. I’m very attentive to routines, comfort, and safety, and I treat every pet like my own. I also have experience preparing homemade dog treats, so I’m always mindful of what pets consume and their overall well-being. I have my own dog, Bo, who is almost 15 and still healthy, active, and loves to run and jump around — which I truly believe comes from consistent care, attention, and a loving environment. Your pet will be in a calm, loving, and structured environment while you’re away — with plenty of attention, care, and affection. I am a full time professional and working remotely. I walk my 14.5 yr old, 12lb furbaby 3-4 times daily and enjoy the spending the outdoors time with my Bo and make him new friends. I treat every pet like my own and focus on creating a safe, stress-free environment. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and has a large fenced yard for safe outdoor play. Pets are always supervised outside and never left unattended. Because I work from home, your pet will have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and any medications or special care. If I’m in your home, I keep your pet’s routine consistent and your space respected. I also provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
