Doggy Day Care in Highwood

“So happy to have found Marta. The Meet and Greet was great, it was comforting to know that Kenzie would be in an environment similar to home, which is exactly what I was looking for. I used Marta for daycare a few days and it was so sweet to receive updates and pics. I already rebooked Kenzie for boarding!”

“Lauren and Lauren are awesome! They care so much about dogs and want to make sure they’re comfortable and having fun. They were very accepting of Zoey’s high energy and the fact that she’s a puppy. I always feel good dropping Zoey off for daycare here.”

“As a first-time dog daycare user, I was filled with worry, but Thea went above and beyond anything I could have imagined. I'm confident that it was a wonderful experience for my dog, Chester, as well. It's hard to put into words how touching the experience was. I am so grateful to Thea, and I have no doubt about her love for dogs. As long as she's available, I will continue to entrust her with Chester.”

“Maureen Miller is a wonderful person who is compassionate and caring and has great empathy for the pets. She would be a perfect pet walker for your family”

“Jessica's dog walking and pet sitting services are truly exceptional. From the moment I entrusted her with my dogs, I knew they were in great hands. Jessica's dedication, reliability, and genuine love for animals shine through in every interaction. Not only does she ensure their physical well-being with regular walks and feeding schedules, but she also provides the affection and attention they crave. Whenever I return, my pets are not just content but genuinely happy, a testament to Jessica's excellent care. Our family recommends!”

“Dana did great with Chloe. Will definitely use her again.”

About: My wife, Jana, and I have been dog lovers our entire lives. Currently, we're proud parents to our wonderful pup, Lula. Lula is a 75lb Komondor-mix. Recently, we said goodbye to our other beloved senior dog, so we understand the unique needs and joys of older dogs. We'd love to open our home to another dog, if only temporarily, to bring some companionship to Lula and fill our hearts with double joy once again. Rest assured, your furry friend will be treated like family while you're away. We can't wait to welcome them into our home with open arms! Jana and I both work from home, ensuring that there's always someone around during the day to provide company and care for your pet. Occasionally, we may step out for a meal or activity in the evenings or on weekends, but your pet will never be left unattended for more than a few hours at a time. Our cozy home boasts a fenced backyard, providing a safe haven for your pet. We enjoy daily walks in our scenic and relaxing neighborhood, ensuring your dog gets plenty of fresh air and exercise if desired. Our dog Lula is e-collar trained, and is playful with other dogs & humans

About: I’ve taken care of different types of dogs since I was 14. People have relied on me and I have a pet of my own. I have plenty of time to be with your animals. I am usually free in the afternoon/ evenings every day of the week and weekends. I am from Riverwoods and it is soon to be my senior year at Denison University but I am taking a gap year right now. I am flexible with start and end times. I also love being active and outside. I can easily crate your dog if needed. We have a zip cord to connect to your dog that prevents them from going past a certain point in the backyard.

“Highly recommend utilizing Jeremy’s services. He is extremely knowledgeable and professional and we will absolutely be utilizing Jeremy’s services in the future. 5 stars!”

“Brian possesses a genuine love for dogs, he is caring and devoted to taking exceptional care of our dog. Brian goes above and beyond, maintaining open communication, sending regular updates and provides exceptional service. I wholeheartedly recommend Brian to anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter.”

“Pat took great care of my dog. She has a lot of experience and really cares about animals. This was my dog's first time with Pat and he seemed to have enjoyed himself (even though he was a little uneasy with an unfamiliar environment). I definitely recommend Pat to care for your fur babies.”

“Tyler took great care of our 9 month old puppy/dog Pepper. She loved playing with his dog in the big back yard and Tyler was thoughtful about which other dogs he let play with her as she is still a puppy. :-) Happy to have made this connection.”

“Tracy was so great with Wrigley! We’d highly recommend her.”

“We had a very positive meet and greet with Denis and Nikki and their children and Thunder, their dog, awhile back, immediately after which we booked our dog Bailey for an overnight stay that's still to come. But unexpectedly this week I needed daycare for Bailey and so I decided to book Denis and Nikki to see how things went for just a day's stay. I am very pleased to report that it seems to have gone very well. Bailey apparently had a calm and peaceful stay there and got along with everyone, enjoying the opportunity to wander around a nice yard (which she doesn't have at home). Denis and Nikki are very welcoming and responsive, and seem to really love dogs and enjoy looking after them. Their home is well prepared to host doggy guests, with a safety gate inside the front door and lots of places in the house for dogs to make themselves comfortable. I received pictures and a Rover report at the end of the day, listing walks and other notable things that took place, which was nice. I have never had that level of detail provided before with other sitters. I feel very confident about Bailey's upcoming overnight stay, and I'm sure we'll be booking with Denis and Nikki in the future. Thanks for taking good care of Bailey, D & N!”

“Diane and Wayne are fantastic dog sitters! They have watched our two dogs on numerous occasions. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with our dogs. We can always enjoy our vacation because we know our dogs are in safe hands! As a bonus they always send us picture of our dogs!”

“Lovely hosts for my girl. Caring, thoughtful, fun....recommend! highly!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a teenager and loved the experience! I worked at an animal shelter and trained dogs with disabilities twice a week. I helped dogs who had behavioral issues become socialized to people and other animals. Overall, it helped me gain experience with a variety of dogs. I am able to provide overnights but can work with check ins as well. I’ve worked mostly with cats and dogs. During the weekdays, I work from 10-6 so I am able to walk doggies in the morning and evening. I love cuddles and playing with pets for fun 🤩 I make sure to clear my schedule when it comes to pet care days! I make sure to keep my full attention to the pets whenever I care for them. I stay on schedule of their meals, daily walks and make sure to keep any food/items out of reach. I also love playing with the pets and providing fun times!

“Great place for my dog to play! Great yard, wonderful pet sitter!”

“I have known Helene for a long time. She is a very responsible and caring person. I have watched her interact with her own dog and other dogs that are in her care. She is an animal lover, always having a cat or dog in her life. She will care for your dog like her own.”

“Alix has been around animals her entire life. She has always been a compassionate and caring pet owner. When unable to have pets of her own during college and first establishing her place after graduation, she volunteered to help take care of friends and co-workers pets. I would highly recommend her as a dog caregiver as she will love and attend to it as her own.”
