Dog Boarding Forest Glen

“Tammy gave me updates and shared photos of the dogs while we were away for a long weekend. She had fun toys available for them to play with. The dogs were happy and content when I picked-up them up. I would definitely ask her to dog sit again.”

Nancy V.

“Joerg and Lake (& Lizzie!) took incredible care of my 9 month old pup. This was the first time I was going out of town since adopting her and I was nervous to leave her but I made the best choice by leaving her with them! They gave me updates throughout my trip and made me feel at ease! Bisou was sad to leave! I will definitely be going back to them in the future :)”

“Rico and his wife were such a great hosts for Wylie. We felt so good about leaving him in good hands. They played with him in their yard, walked him, and just overall took great care of him. He is excited for his next stay and we are definitely booking with Rico again.”

Lilly F.

“Jessie was calm and happy upon pickup. Brian took good care of him. This was our second time leaving Jessie with Brian and we would do it again.”

Rima B.

“Jacob was a fantastic sitter for Shaq! He was always very responsive, provided regular updates, and even made sure Shaq got his playtime indoors when the wildfire smoke outside was hazardous. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter that will provide your pup with peace of mind while you're away!”

Nathan B.

“We had to find a sitter at the last minute to watch our dog for a couple of days. Elva was quick to respond to my request. At our meet and greet we knew right away that she is very caring and that our dog would be in good hands. She sent us updates with videos and photos of him every day which we really appreciated. We highly recommend Elva!”

Eleonor F.

“Camile and her husband Joe are a lovely couple who work together to give the best care for your baby. They have a beautiful, clean home with a large, wonderful, fenced backyard. My elderly dog was treated like a little king...and he had a walk to the park every day. They do a stellar job!”

Sheryl M.

“We had a fantastic first experience with leaving our pup Ace for 4 days/3 nights. We were given updates with pics and videos multiple times a day which eased all our minds at leaving our 4 legged family member while we were on a ski trip. Joe is clearly knowledgeable on how to acclimate a dog to new surroundings and caretaker. We appreciate his insight as a certified dog trainer; we are lucky to have been connected to him and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”

Elizabeth S.

“I would definitely be calling Timothy again for my boarding needs! He was super responsive and my baby was well taken care of! He was super sweet and very personable. I got pictures and text updates.”

Denese E.

“So great to have peace of mind while we are travelling! Stella is our senior dog and can be particular with people, we feel incredibly lucky to be able to leave her and feel safe!”

Victoria O.

“Rima was amazing with our pup. We felt at peace to leave Milo with her while on vacation. We received pictures and updates on his adjusten and it was a great feeling to know he's OK and we didn't have to worry about him at all. Thanks Rima.”

Aiste C.

“Caroline saved the day with accepting our dog Lizzie on short notice when we had to leave town for a family emergency. We did a short meet and greet to introduce Lizzie to Caroline's dog and both got along great. During the first few days of her stay, our dog needed some adjustments b/c it was her first time staying in a new environment, but Caroline handled it great and with some input from us Lizzie settled in and enjoyed having a playmate. The daily pictures and videos of her were delightful. We highly recommend Caroline.”

Joerg & Lake Z.

“Poppy had a great time at Ian’s! From start to finish, our experience was great. He had thoughtful questions about her schedule and personality, a great outdoor setup for the dogs, and sent lots of photos.”

Brianna D.

“Po came home tired and happy - positive indicators that Jamie was a fantastic sitter. Jamie also sent multiple videos of Po and her dog Moon playing throughout the day which were wonderful to see. Will definitely be bringing Po back to Jamie 😊”

Shayna B.

“Another awesome stay with Darla, Greg, and Shandy! They always allow Zoe to make herself right at home and we are so appreciative. Daily photos and check ins were amazing — we loved seeing Zoe enjoying their yard, playtime with Shandy, and cuddling up inside. Can’t thank them enough!”

About: I’m originally from KY and lived with dogs and cats until I graduated college and moved to Chicago. I’ve chosen not to own animals in the city due to professional demands. I’m now taking a different career path where I work from home and have more flexibility. I’m extremely flexible on weekdays between 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. I’ll provide doggy daycare given I’m free for the times required. I’m a great communicator and am very transparent about my schedule. My model is to attend to the immediate needs of all animals. I’m attentive and someone who loves spending quality time with animals. I’m a father of three boys (14,11,9) and truly understand the importance of finding the best possible care for my loved ones. All of my kids LOVE animals and are comfortable with any pets given said animals like children. I’m extremely diligent about following rules and do not care for irresponsible pet parents.

About: Hi! I'm a seasoned pet caretaker with experience caring for dogs and cats, including puppies, senior pets, and pets with special medical or behavioral needs. I grew up with dogs and have been a petsitter, dog walker, and a pet foster mom for many years. I have experience training dogs, administering medication, and preparing meals for special diets. I know that every dog or cat is different, and I tailor my care to their specific needs and personalities. I provide the level of experience you can trust and the loving care your pet will enjoy! I work from home and have a flexible schedule during the week. When petsitting, I'm able to accommodate as many walks as your dog prefers and lots and lots of play time! I'm also free on weekends. I strive to keep your pet's routine and comfort level the same as if you were there. I know consistency is key to a happy cat or dog! For dogs that I board, I live right next to beautiful Winnemac Park, which pups really love (on a leash, of course). I do live in a third floor walk-up, so boarded dogs would need to be able to handle stairs, or be comfortable with/small enough to be carried. Also, please note: I have a full-time remote job. It's very flexible and leaves me with lots of time for walks, potty breaks, meds, feeding, play time, etc. But on weekdays I will need to be at my computer (including occasional 30-60 min zoom calls) throughout the day. On weekends, I will not be working.

“Thank you for boarding Penny for the past 2 nights. You always take awesome pictures and detailed reports! It looks like she always has a blast staying with you. I appreciate it!”

“I really felt good leaving Autumn with this family. They were super attentive to all my instructions and so very sweet with Autumn, sending plenty of photos in just the 24 hours I left her in their care. Definitely bringing her back again!!”

“I appreciate David and Jerrilyn for giving King all TLC and demands and loves to receive😊! I love seeing how happy he is in all his pics, and that’s what makes my day!”
