Dog Boarding in Grayslake

“Our pup had such a great time with Laura & Ryan! They kept us updated every day with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was having fun and felt right at home. We’d absolutely trust them to care for our pup again!”

“John and his wife Kathy go over and above to create a comfortable environment for our dogs. They boarded them for two weeks and we got regular reports. We never had to worry about our two dogs, other than to worry if they’d ever want to leave John and Kathy’s! I cannot recommend them highly enough!”

Margaret N.

“We had a wonderful experience with Patricia. Sprocket stayed over for 4 days and everything was perfect. He was well looked after and we received updates throughout our vacation. If there were 6 stars, we would have given 6!”

“Our pup Carson had a wonderful stay with Angela and her family! I received the cutest daily pictures of him and all the fun he was having with them. He was spoiled in the best ways and I am so thankful for all the love they provided during his stay, he was so comfortable and I can tell he had the best time with everyone and their pup Honey as well. 10/10 recommend!”

Chelsey D.

“She was very inviting and spoiled the girls accordingly. The girls were nice and tired after a full day of play. Absolutely wonderful to work with. We were a little late getting there from when we promised; but she was understanding. I would highly recommend this sitter & if we were ever in the neighborhood again, we would definitely use her!”

Sherry E.

“Champ had the best time yet again. He was well taken care of and loves the other dogs. He remembered the house the second we pulled up and was super excited!! Thank you so much for the great care and flexibility!!”

Trina V.

“Outstanding caretaker, loves the dogs in her care and takes excellent care of mine for the week. I am so happy to have found her and completely confident she will provide the best care. Stays in touch, checks in to see how things were going while I was recovering from surgery. Thank you Kristal!”

Deborah U.

“This was our first time using Rover. Debbie and Tom were wonderful to work with and gave my fiancé and I confidence that our dog, Ollie, would be well cared for during our wedding weekend. Debbie and Tom were responsive and flexible with drop-off and pick up times that took some of the stress out of a busy weekend for us. During the meet and greet we were relieved to see that they were calm and clearly dog lovers. Even though Ollie was excited and busy exploring-they reassured us that it was normal for dogs visiting to take a minute to settle down. During his stay, Ollie was very well taken care of and received the activity he needs to be healthy and happy. Debbie and Tom were both very detailed to help accommodate Ollie’s schedule. Not to mention, we were lucky to receive numerous photo updates along the way! I would highly recommend Debbie and Tom to anyone looking for great pet care!”

“They were absolutely amazing! I was nervous to leave my dog because he is big and has a lot of energy but he did such a good job, and they stayed in constant communication with me and sent me pictures which eased my nervousness! They are super friendly and love dogs!”

Kiana R.

“So thankful for Elisa! Second time booking with her because our dog loved her so much! It was a great time for our dog to socialize with her dog as well. We appreciated the photo updates.”

“Julie and Tom did an amazing job watching my senior pup. I was in a pinch and needed someone to help last minute. My dog is almost 16 and needs a lot of assistance including being carried around (he’s a lab/Weimaraner mix). I was worried about leaving him but they sent me tons of updates, pictures, and videos. My pup was actually so comfortable there he almost didn’t want to leave when I came to pick him up. Thank you so much for what you do! You are appreciated!”

“Thank you Yolanda and family for loving Evie like your own! I am very grateful that Yolanda cared for Evie like I would. This gave me peace of mind while I was on vacation! Upon greeting, her and her husband were so welcoming and nice people and I knew right away Evie would be in good hands! She was very communicative and responsive when needed! It was just the right amount of communication that didn’t have me worrying but also didn’t bother me. Yolanda sent picture and video updates which I loved! She reached out with questions right away and responded quickly. I would definitely recommend her to anyone I come across! I am truly grateful to have found her to give my Evie the care and love! I felt she was safe and a home away from home! Best wishes to Yolanda and her family and I will definitely be back in the future!”
