“Chisato was wonderful to our baby pups! It looked like he had such a great time and enjoyed his stay. ♥️ we were very nervous at first but she sent so many photos and videos that really helped us feel better. Thank you so much for your help. We will be booking again soon!”


“We left our pup, George, with Jacob for a week and while we were anxious about leaving him for so long, Jacob put our minds at ease with updates and photos. Jacob truly cares about the dogs in his care and helped make our family vacation even better knowing George was in good hands.”



“Angela (and her husband Dave) took such good care of Zoe! This was our first time leaving Zoe with someone else and they really made it easy for us. She sent us pictures often and sent me updates on Zoe. She really made me feel at ease! We’ve already booked another stay over the holidays.”


“Mary and Norm are the best! This was my dog’s first time staying with someone that wasn’t a friend or family so I was a little nervous. Mary sent me updates and pictures the whole time I was away and that put my mind and heart at ease. She was easy to communicate with and quick to respond to my messages. They are a wonderful couple and I wouldn’t want my dog staying with anyone else in the future . Highly recommend!!”


“Had a last minute cancel of my usually dog sitter but Lorena was quick to respond, she watches <40lb dogs which my GSP is just under but she took her for the weekend was was amazing. The pics she sent of Lina looked good and happy!”


“Being military and having to travel often, she’s always available and happy to take my girls in. My babies love coming here, I think they are more excited when we pull up than when we’re leaving. There’s no other sitter I would rather leave my kids with! 10/10 recommend!”



“Our golden doodle Ricky was under the care of Jennifer and Aaron for about 10 days. Their dog also happened to be golden doodle, so Ricky had a great time playing with him. Jennifer took very good care of Ricky and gave me daily updates with photos and text messages. She was a very kind to put Ricky at ease at times when he barked at night due to new place anxiety by allowing him to sleep in her room. They had a big fenced backyard for dogs to play during pleasant Chicago summer weather. Ricky enjoyed the walks as well. Ricky came back happy and healthy. I will recommend Jennifer as a dog sitter in a heart beat and she will gladly be my go-to dog sitter when I am in Chicago next year. Thank you Jennifer.”

Fenced yard and fun loving dog. I have with children, 7 and 11 year old. We all love dogs. Daily walks. Also some trips to the dog park.


“We are so lucky to find Dee. Dee did a great job and communicated what was going on very well! It was important for us since it was our first time. She sent us a lot of good pictures. Thanks Dee! Highly recommend!”



“Stella and her husband Jim are fantastic! They watched our 2 VERY active Golden Retrievers for 9 days. She sent me daily pictures of them playing. They always seemed to be having a blast. I know my boys can be a handful but they never seemed bothered by their energy. Stella replied too all my txts and emails right away. You can tell they love dogs! I would give them 6 stars if I could. It was nice to go away and know that Tanner and Charlie were in good hands. I would take them back there in a heartbeat.”


“Tessa and her husband took very good care of our dog Gus. We were very happy with the first visit and did an overnight stay which also went very well. Gus seemed very comfortable in their home. Tessa is very responsive and sent us pictures of Gus.”


“This was my first time using Rover and I have to say I am very thankful for John & Louis. My dog struggles with separation anxiety from me and she was comfortable with them and did very well. I received daily updates with photos and highly recommend John and Louis. I will definitely be using them again.”


“Veronique was awesome, she was always checking in with me with photos of my little Rubi. She was very attentive and made me feel at ease. My dog was clearly comfortable and at ease in her care. I will definitely use her services again.”



“Arelys and Ilsa were amazing with Athena! It was our first time boarding her and we know she has some separation anxiety so we weren't sure what to expect. Arelys was amazing with her though! We got frequent updates and so many pictures of Athena playing with the other dogs and lounging on the couch relaxing, which reassured us that she was in great hands and having a good time! While this was a quick weekend getaway, I would definitely trust Arelys with Athena for a longer stay 😊 We now have one happy and exhausted dog!”


“Don’t wait to book your dog’s stay with Debbie and her lovely family! She gave our 6 month Golden Retriever so much love and attention while we were away. We’ve already rebooked with Debbie for our next trip. She kept us updated with photos and made us feel at ease. Thank you Debbie!!”
