Doggy Day Care Gage Park

About: I grew up taking care and even sitting some of my mom's friends dogs. In my teens I would take care and sit a few family members dogs. I then volunteered at a puppy adoption center in Mexico. I am currently only attending school on Friday mornings from 8am to 12pm. I will update my schedule once I go back to tutoring or when my classes change. I will ensure that your pets get the care they need and the exercise they need. I will also pay attention to any requests your pets may need.

About: I love pets, I hate when they are mistreated in any way. They become part of our family and in the same way we must love and care for them. I am available every weekday and some weekends. I can look after them here at my home, where they can feel comfortable and free—both inside the house and in the yard. I offer dog care at my home, which has a fenced yard where they can play and have fun. I have a Shih Tzu, And I know she'll love having new friends to play with.

About: I’ve taken care of or have had animals since I was a child. Currently I have a cat named Ida who is very sweet & affectionate. I just graduated with a Master’s of Social Work. Before beginning my career, I’m taking some down time and taking care of animals. This gives me the ability to prioritize your pets needs! My environment is animal friendly. I have a fenced in back yard and live near a park. I have a cat named Ida who is welcoming to new animals inside our home. I allow animals on my bed and furniture.

“Gabriel was an excellent dog sitter for Walnut. He was attentive, patient, and very professional throughout the entire experience. He communicated clearly, provided updates, and always confirmed details, which gave me great peace of mind. Walnut seemed very happy and comfortable with him, and it was clear he genuinely enjoyed spending time with Gabriel. I truly felt that Walnut was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Gabriel and would love for him to continue sitting for us in the future.”

“Dayana was a great dogsitter to our puppy Honey. She sent pictures and videos throughout the day of Honey having fun and being taken on walks, and she was very nice and communicative. I will definitely be reaching back out for more dog sitting with Dayana!”

“We were visiting Chicago for a graduation and left our young golden retriever with Jennifer and her family. They have a nice yard set up and there were other dogs there for her to play with. They sent a video each day, which we appreciated, as well. Thank you!”

“Gaby was great! Gaby has been walking my puppy for a few weeks now and she loves her! We thought we would try day care with Gaby and it was perfect for her. Gaby was very accommodating and able to keep my puppy a bit longer since I was delayed.”

“Ashley and her daughter Marina are incredibly conscientious and caring. Every time I bring my dog to their place, he is excited to run up the stairs and be reunited with his extended family. He truly loves them, and I can see how much they love him as well. 10/10, would recommend Ashley’s services to anyone!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and genuinely love being around them. Most of my experience is with larger breeds, but I’ve also cared for small dogs and understand their different needs. Dogs tend to warm up to me quickly, and I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home most of the week, so your dog will have lots of company and care throughout the day. We'll take regular breaks for walks and playtime, and my big yard gives them plenty of space to run around and burn off energy. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog. My home is a safe, welcoming space where dogs are treated like family. With a large, fully fenced yard and lots of supervision, I make sure every pup feels comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for.

“Timothy is our puppy’s favorite sitter (and ours too!). It’s clear he really understands and empathizes with dogs of all ages and sizes. We’ve had multiple stays at Timothy’s place, and every time our dog comes home happy, well-cared for and occasionally having made new dog friends! We especially appreciate the way he handles our rambunctious labrador puppy- calm, kind, and confident. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in good hands. We’re grateful to have found him, highly recommend!”

Eric F. R.

“Ruben was fantastic with communication and care of our dogs. Thank you so much for caring for our babies as a part of your family and for the updates throughout the day. We will be rebooking for future use as the need arises. :)”
