Dog Boarding in Heyworth, IL

“Kat was great! I have never felt more confident that someone was around to take care of my boy than when he was with her. She’s a joy to work with and I definitely recommend her to anyone!”

“When I opened the car door, on our second booking, my little angel was excited to discover she returned to Deborah’s home. She even scratched at the door when I knocked, and delighted to see Deborah just like family. That gave me great comfort!”

Laura L.

“We are so thankful how well our dogs were cared for by Rae & Dave! Communication was great and we even were shown glimpses into our pups lives while we were away. Our little 10 pounder became best buds with Winston and spent half the drive home pouting when we picked him up. Our older one just needed cuddles and snuggles and was happily provided with those often. We know our dogs have a lot of energy - but Dave and Rae took on the challenge without any complaints and most of all we know that our little guys were loved! We give a high recommendation!”

“Peggy was great! She had to take in my dog to the vet LAST MINUTE ON CHRISTMAS EVE but didn’t complain so much as a minute. She was also able to get my dog into healthier habits and she lost those last couple pounds we were worried about! Absolutely amazing. 10/10 recommend.”

“We are very thankful for Diane and her pup Lulu for watching our pup on Christmas Day and evening. The experience was so much better for us and our pup than dealing with a kennel. Diane was pleasant and responsive throughout the entire process and even took a photo of our pup laying on the couch with her daughter. Thank you Diane for being available and taking good care of Peanut.”

“Kolton was fantastic! He was very professional and organized and I knew I was leaving my dog in good hands! This was our first experience with Rover and it went great. Kolton called us beforehand to learn more about Nala and her schedule, feeding, treats, and medications. We were able to ask any questions and get to know more about him as well. This helped us feel so much better about her stay. He sent updates and pictures of Nala while he was watching her so we always knew how she was doing. Our pup had a blast!! Thanks Kolton!”

Machella S.

“Our dogs first experience with someone other than family. We are so grateful for the care she received, the chance to be with another human and her dog, and the pictures we were sent. Very reassuring to us and to our pup.”

“Thanks again for another great visit! Journey loves staying with Bill, which makes for worry-free vacations. She is well taken care of and makes herself right at home. She gets plenty of walks, which she loves, and we know she gets plenty of snuggles. We are grateful!!”

“Chris and Erika were great! Their pup, Kinzie made for a great play buddy for our dog, Boba during his stay. Sitters were very responsive to our inquiry and questions. Would recommend them to anyone!”

Bryanna K.

“Justin was phenomenal! Highly recommend! He even gave my boy a bath! He was home with him almost always. Someone was always with my pup. Very communicative. Prompt. Sends photos and videos. My pup had a great time!”

“Giving a big shout out to Ashley for lovin on our Puggle while we went skiing on Spring Break. Thank you for caring for Bella this week.”

Kelli L.

“My two (big) dogs stayed with Amy over Christmas. It was a first time experience for us and I am so thankful that we picked Amy! She sent us pics and updates daily and I could tell my boys were happy, relaxed, peaceful, and loved in her home. They have only stayed with my mom in the past and I’m so glad that we had a positive experience all around. Amy is kind, professional, calm, and trustworthy. Thank you for taking such good care of our boys 💕🐾”

Angela R.

“Laney was great with my timid little guy! Took him for a walk and sent me a picture and update during the day. Would definitely book her again if needed. I felt at ease leaving Piglet in her care.”

Morgan W.

“I highly recommend Caitlins dog boarding service. Axel had a good time during his stay. Axel normally gets anxious in a new place and with new people but Caitlin made him feel at ease during his entire visit , which also made me enjoy my vacation because I am not worried about my little Axel’s well being. I appreciate all the pictures and the report that she gives you at the end of the day with all the details about how much he ate, how many times he went outside and the potty breaks. Caitlin, Thank you so much for taking care of my little baby…”

Russia V.

“Lainey agreed to board my Golden and Aussie last minute and she did a phenomenal job! My Aussie does not like new people and struggles with severe anxiety and fear aggression. I was honest about his behaviors upfront and not once did she seem scared, which is so uncommon, even at dog boarding facilities. Because of her passion for animals, managing behaviors, and training, he had a successful stay and I could enjoy time away without worrying constantly. I can't begin to explain how freeing and relieving that was! I will be using Lainey in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone! Thank you, Lainey!! You are such a blessing!”

Emily R.

“I can't say enough good things about Stevie! From the moment I met her and her daughter, I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care. Throughout the week, she was incredibly diligent, providing regular updates and even photos/videos which put my mind at ease. It was clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. On top of her excellent care, she was also very flexible when both of our schedules shifted. I highly recommend Stevie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and flexible pet sitter!”

About: I've dog sat for many years. I have had 5 consistent clients who always contact me if they need a sitter. I have a good understanding of animal care and needs as a pre-vet student. In addition I have a good understanding of what is expected when working with pets.

Through this program I also fostered a puppy, Sherman, and learned a great deal about puppies and how to train them for basic house manners. I am a pre-vet student at ISU. My classes are not super time consuming currently so I have lots of availability. I am an ISU cheerleader however sports season is over so we no longer have lots of commitments only weekly practice. Lots of experience with kenneling dogs and working on kenneling. I personally have a kennel in my house and am allowed pets in my apartment. Lots of experience with in home pet care and am willing to do whatever is needed whether that is picking up waste, giving medication, baths, anything that is needed!

“I can not say enough good things about our experience with Leina. We first met her and her dog Frankie at a park, and our dogs got along great! She was very quick with all communications, and she even sent us pictures during the entire stay, which we very much appreciated! She has a beautiful house with a large fenced in yard for the dogs to play. This was our first time ever leaving our dog with someone other than family, so we were very nervous, but Leina made the whole process so easy and we were very confident that he was in the best care. We will definitely recommend Leina to our friends and family. We are so happy that we found her, and we will absolutely contact her again for our next vacation! Thank you Leina!!”

About: New to the area and excited to make new four-legged friends. I’m SO excited to share our ONE+ ACRE fenced field and provide this easy country living experience so close to the city limits. I have three rescues of my own and have been helping with boarding and foster dogs. It’s a joy to host in my own space. As an entrepreneur and homesteader, I most often work from home. I love the flexibility that allows me to accommodate most of my clients’ needs. Flexibility and options are the name of the safe dog-boarding game! There’s plenty of space for everyone to run and to stretch in the sun. Personalities and individual needs are taken into consideration before allowing dogs to have play time together. Dogs who know each other and who show they can play well together will have that opportunity. Dogs should be comfortable with being crated.
