Doggy Day Care Grand Crossing

About: I've owned and cared for dogs since elementary school. Including pet sitting for several senior and high needs dogs. I find bonding with and learning each other's quirks very rewarding At the moment my schedule revolves around my pets. I don't have a full time job, and so I have plenty of time to spend with them. I have a 6 foot fenced in yard with plenty of space to play, and I live in a single family home. Nobody else will have access to your pets if they're with me. I have a separate room for doggies staying with me away from my pets with resting space, an extra crate and extra pens of different types so that everyone can be comfortable and have some space of their own while they relax. But if our dogs get along then yours can just live in my home like one of the family for their stay. Treats included! The yard can get muddy, especially in the spring and fall, and my dogs love love love to run, play and get messy so expect your pup to come home a bit dirtier than they arrived, and don't feel the need to make them shine before their stay if they like to play!

“Bola boarded my pup overnight and she was great. She's knowledgeable, loving and caring in her interaction with me and my fur buddy. We look forward to using her services again in the near future.”

“My dog loves Tamara! I’ve been using her for over a year and only trust her to watch my dog who has bad anxiety and is skiddish with most people. When I drop her off, she doesn’t even know I’m there anymore. That makes me happy since my baby has anxiety bad. Definitely recommend her. She’s very caring and accommodating!”

“Having Tamya provide day care for our Weimaraner MacKenzie was the best decision! We traveled from the DC area to Chicago to visit the new Obama Presidential Library and Center and wanted to ensure she would be in good hands for the several hours we were away. Tamya made planning for MacKenzie very easy and I was impressed with the advanced questionnaire provided so that they could match the needs for her. They got along superbly. Thank you Tamya for caring for our little girl!”

My work as a freelance farmer and educator allows me a lot of flexibility to care for your sweet creature - i am able to design my own schedule so that i can meet most pet care needs, however particular. If your animal if able to visit the farm, they can enjoy beautiful fields of produce and watching the birds from a safe distance. If they are more of a homebody, they can stay cozy in my sunny one bedroom apartment where I'm able to check on them throughout the day. Have a weird pet? Dont be shy! It has always been my dream to work with different kinds of animals. I also offer farm experiences at our urban farm for any creatures who are lovers of the outdoors!

My days are generally structured around animal care. I start with my morning chores, making the rounds for each pet and farm animal. Through midday I balance my research and freelance work with any of the pets' daytime needs, and in the evening again I do the rounds for closing chores. I genuinely love to structure my day around animal care! It helps me to balance my routine and remember to pause and be joyful. I live in a large one bedroom apartment with an unfenced yard, and I work with an urban farm that has a fenced-in city lot. If your oet loves the outdoors, we can go to the farm every day!
