Dog Boarding in Lakewood, IL

“She was fantastic with my dog. We had a last minute change of plans with our other sitter days before a trip and she took him in no problem. She was very patient with him and made sure he was content in her home. Would highly recommend.”

“Derek and his family took excellent care of our dog. He was communicative and gave just enough updates to keep us informed on how things were going. Would highly recommend him. We will most definitely be using his services again.”

“Craig was great! My dog had never stayed with anyone before so I was nervous. Craig put me at ease every day by sending a daily update and pictures. I was instantly reassured and he was the right choice based on his experience with training dogs and his patience. I wouldn't hesitate to leave my dog with Craig again in the future. Very responsible and a true dog person.”

“Our dog Arya was in great hands with Sarah. Arya got a ton of exercise and stimulation between the large yard and other dogs to play with. When we picked Arya up she was a very tired and happy pup! ”

“Layla had a great time with Shelby and Jose. They sent lots of photos and were very easy to plan everything with. Great communication and Layla was very well cared for. Would definitely book with Shelby again!”

“Fantastic. Amazing. Our dog enjoyed his stay with this family. I appreciated the communication, flexibility and updates from my dog’s boarding. Can’t wait to book with them again.”

“Justyna took great care of my dog. She is very flexible and accommodating and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again!”

“The experience was easy and my dog loved it Cheryl was wonderful I definitely book with her again for my next trip she made me and my Payton feel very comfortable!”

“Carla and her family were lifesavers! Since I moved, I lost my Critter Sitter cause I went from a house to an Apartment. So, I needed to board my little Magnolia for the first time EVER as I was headed for a Cruise out of Florida for a week! I was nervous and scared leaving her as I'm all she knows. Carla's experience caught my eye and the location looked great. Much to my surprise, Magnolia had the time of her life! All of Carla's lovely family played and spoiled my little Angel to death! She loved running with Carla's two beautiful big dogs and looked after Magnolia in the fenced-in backyard as she ran and ran with them! She's stuck in an Apartment by herself all day so this was a big PLAY TIME for Magnolia and she loved the attention!! Carla sent the most amazing videos of my little girl getting belly rubs and snoozing next to her family!! I feel so grateful to have met Carla & Family and I can't wait to make a play date so Magnolia can see her friends again. I HIGHLY recommend Carla and her services! They are truly Dog lovers at that house! I can now sleep at night knowing if I have to have her boarded, I have someone I can trust with my little Magnolia and she won't even miss me while I'm gone!!”

“Very happy with your service Jessica! Macie wears a special tracking collar so we don't ever lose her. But we can see she must have had good walks and play time with 30k steps the first day she 31k the 2nd day. The only other time we boarded her was at a professional kennel where she had a max of 800 steps for one day. So huge difference. Thank you! The pics were greatly appreciated as well! Would definitely recommend you.”

“Maisy liked being with Kathleen and John - She came home happy and bouncing and her very own self. Kathleen and John are a wonderful couple who loved and cared for our Maisy for the time that we were gone. They gave us the peace of mind not to have to worry about our little one.”

“Arielle and her family were the best vacation family for my little guy. She sent pictures everyday and had lots of lovely stories about how much they enjoyed and bonded with my dog. I will definitely will be booking with her from now on. I'm very grateful to them for their great care of my pup. He even got a Christmas squeaky toy! Such a cute family.”

“Kathy was great! Sent daily pics and videos and was very accommodating with meet up times. Lots of yard space for dogs to run and play. Her 3 pugs are adorable and got along well with our dog. My dog usually comes home pretty stressed after being at the sitter, but this was the first time he came home content and happy! Will definitely use Kathy in the future. Such a nice person too :)”

“Elizabeth does an awesome job with my 6 yr old terrier mix. She is the best at making him feel at home which makes me feel at ease knowing he is being treated well with lots of cuddles, love and special attention. I 100% recommend her and will definitely use her again.”

“Dorene was amazing and gave dailly updates on how our dogs were doing. They didn't want to leave when we went to pick them up so we know they were spoiled! We will definitely be using Dorene again!”

“We were impressed with how Ben interacted with our dog (Murphy). His dog experience really showed through. He seemed to understand Murphy's needs and personality. Ben has a wonderful, fenced in backyard - there is lots of room for dogs to sniff and exercise. We also appreciated the updates on how Murphy was doing. We haven't left him much and that gave us such peace of mind. When the time came to pick Murphy up, Murphy was happy to see us, but not desperate to leave! We look forward to having Ben watch him in the future.”

About: I’ve been working with dogs for 6 years I was a vet tech for 3 years, and I currently work at a board and training place for dogs as well. I’m very knowledgeable with any medications and dog health I’m working part time so I’m home majority of the time! I don’t mind going on long walks or hanging back Whatever is more comfortable for your pups I have a spacious home, I also Live right across a beach to take the pups to sit by the water and near a forest preserve to walk and adventure.

“Megan was a life-saver accepting my last minute booking request and did an amazing job watching my golden for 10 days! She even accommodated extended his stay a night without hesitation when my flight was canceled. She went out of her way to keep Zeus comfortable/safe by not boarding any other dogs during his stay (since he has been scared of some dogs after getting attacked last year). She sent me multiple pictures everyday and always replied to my texts quickly which made me very comfortable about Zeus’s safety! Zeus seems so happy to have spent this time with Megan and I will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you so much for everything!!!”

“Karen was awesome with our dog, and with us. She sent us pictures and updates daily to let us know how our dog was doing in her care. She eased all of our worries at the initial meet and greet and she went above and beyond in her care of our dog. She spoiled him just as we do, she took him on 2 walks daily and basically treated our dog like her own. Her home is dog friendly and has a fenced yard. This was our first experience leaving our dog with someone other than family and Karen did a wonderful job. We couldn't have asked for a better person to watch our dog. We highly recommend Karen to anyone who wants their dog to be cared for as you care for them yourself. Kind, considerate and caring, we will be using Karen again in the future without any hesitation.”

“I was worried as it was the first time I had used Rover, but Michelle made me feel very comfortable about the whole process. My dog seemed to have a great time judging by her reaction and the pictures Michelle sent me! Will definitively use Michelle to watch my dog again in the future!”
