“Dickson is a very caring dog sitter. He did everything he could to make my bulldog feel comfortable and have fun. He gives video and picture updates of their adventures. I would absolutely have him watch my dog again!”


“We were thrilled with our experience with Maureen's care. We recently left our two westies with Maureen for a week. Maureen is so pleasant and a true dog lover which is very apparent when meeting her. She has a fenced back yard with plenty of room to roam. Her own two 'boys' are very good natured golden retrievers who wanted to play. Maureen's house is well situated for dog care, with plenty of room, yet able to isolate areas' with gates if helpful. I think in our case, what made our experience especially positive was receiving a daily phone text/picture from Maureen showing our westies during their day and a little note about their day. Was such a comforting touch. Maureen was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up time. We were very pleased and would highly recommend Maureen's service. Bill & Donna (Gurnee, IL)”

“Rachel was wonderful with my two dogs. They felt right at home with her family. She's great with dogs and is very aware of tfeir behaviors. She proactively met with us prior to the stay to see how my dogs would interact with some of the other dogs she watches. Everything worked out great. I would highly recommend Rachel.”

“Anays and Francis were wonderful with Ginger. This is the first time she's been boarded for an entire week. I was completely comfortable leaving her with them and their communication with me was fantastic. I already have another week booked for later in the summer.”

“Edwin and his wife were amazing! It was our puppy’s first time being boarded while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The home is so lovely, with a nice fenced yard for playtime. We got many pics and videos of our pup, who had a great time at Edwin’s. Thank you!”

“We are blessed to find an amazing trustworthy sitter for our fur baby. June is always our first preference to sit Murphy. We’re going to June pretty regularly for sitting and boarding. She’s amazing! Clear communication, understanding, polite, follows instructions, has clean environment and takes care of Murphy like her own pet!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“This is the second time we have entrusted Peaches to the care of this wonderful family, and we are just as pleased as the first time—Peaches clearly is as well. We are truly grateful to have found them. Their warmth and attentiveness toward Peaches is remarkable. They are the ideal caregivers anyone could find!!”

“Caroline treats our pups like her own. She is great with pairing Lady and Jazzi with other dogs. Very caring and considerate. Will definitely use her services in future!”

“Carisa did a wonderful job. She took really good care of my dog Simba. She was really attentive, and everything went off without a hitch. I could tell Simba was comfortable and happy, and it just gave me so much peace of mind. Overall, I’m really grateful for how smoothly it all went.” I would highly recommend her.”

“Elisa is charming and knows about caring for older and smaller dogs. She immediately understood what my very old mini dachshund needs, and was patient and gentle. Elisa is equally great with people - very likable and trustworthy.”

“Elena and her family were great. From the start at drop off, I could tell our pup would be treated like family. She was really good about keeping me updated on how things were going on a frequent basis. She sent us some great pictures and a few brief summaries of how the day went. Two weeks is a long time to take someone else’s dog for any reason but I’m really happy it was Elena and her family. Will try to use her again if they’re willing.”

“Carla was AMAZING! It was my first time leaving my dogs - 3 of them none the less- with anyone and I was very nervous but she made me feel so much better and like they were left with family. On top of that, we had recently adopted a new puppy and she willingly took on them all and loved them as I do. She sent me pictures and videos multiple times a day (as she knew I was nervous) and my family and I loved seeing how happy they were and how loved they were. We are already planning to use her for our summer vacation. Highly recommend using Carla for your pups if you want them loved and cared for ❤️”


“Tony was great with Archie. He sent photos and videos which I really liked to see. Archie looked like he really enjoyed himself. Would highly recommend Tony. Thanks again for having Archie in your home”

About: I have been a dog owner for 20 years, I currently have a Belgian Tervuren puppy who would love the company. I have 1/2 acre fenced in yard. I am home during the day and evening. Dogs can play outside or come inside if they would like. I would be happy to board your dog and make sure they are comfortable coming here. I work at home so pets would be not a problem as I can tend to them al all times. During the evening I can play with them and interact with the dogs so they feel comfortable. I have a 1/2 acre fenced in yard as well as security cameras so that I can monitor the yard at all times. The dogs love running around in my yard.

“I was very pleased with my pet sitting experience. Her children were very gentle with my dog. My dog had 2 meals there & she ate both meals without hesitation. This means, for my dog, that she was comfortable in her surroundings. Ariana seemed genuinely concerned & sensitive about my dog feeling comfortable & not nervous while she was their. I wouldn't hesitate to pick Ariana as your pet sitter. We plan on choosing her again when we need a pet sitter in the future.”

“Jill was excellent, accepted Bella (German Husky) even for a last minute request. Appreciated the updates and pictures sent while Bella was under her care which showed Bella was calm and enjoying her stay. Will definitely use Jill again to take of our Bella and recommend her to others. Thanks much Jill.”
