Doggy Day Care in Loop, Chicago, IL

“Katelyn was so sweet to my girls when we had to leave them during a cubs game. She sent me pictures and videos and came armed with treats. She even cleaned them up a little around their eyes! When we picked our dogs up they were all smiles which told me they had a great time. Will definitely use her again!”

“Taylor has been looking after my growing stubborn puppy Smitty when I go to the office for work. My dog Smitty has grown very fond of Taylor and he is always excited for the days he gets to spend at his place. Taylor will go above and beyond. He is extremely reliable, has great communication and you can always count on him to be of service when you need it. If you’re thinking of hiring someone to look after your dog, look no further, hire Taylor!”

“Katrina was excellent! She made my first Rover experience with my pup a breeze. She is incredibly responsive and is punctual. She walked me through everything to expect and she even helped me set up a day stay as a introduction for my pup before her longer 5 night stay. I felt that my dog was well cared for and was receiving so much attention and love from Katrina! I got many updates and cute photos through the day which made me feel at ease while at work. She even gave me a little souvenir photo of my pup at the end of the stay. She is also very professional and transparent about every aspect of the stay. I give her my highest recommendation and will definitely be a repeat client!”

“Amy provided exceptional care for Maeve during her time at daycare. Maeve had an amazing time playing with her new friend Frank, and Amy treated her with the same warmth and attention as if she were her own. I highly recommend Amy and look forward to booking with her again!”

About: Our trained and loving staff provide quality care. We have a rigorous first day evaluation/ 'interview' process for all dogs in our care to ensure only the most well behaved and social pups are approved to be in playgroup. We keep small playgroups of 15 to 20 dogs. We take hourly potty breaks, have toy playtime, outdoor mini pool pawties in the summer to keep cool, and so much more!

“Ania was absolutely fabulous with my boy! Took him for a nice long walk. I could tell when I picked him up that he had really bonded with her.”

“Veronica was AMAZING! She was very responsive, available on short notice on a holiday weekend and my puppy took to her immediately. She sent me timely updates and photos (I was a little nervous as this was my first time using the Rover app). I hope to use her next time I visit Chicago!”

“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Luna! It’s clear they had an amazing time playing and socializing, and I love seeing how happy and tired they are after a day with you. I truly appreciate the care and attention you give to her and it’s such a relief knowing Luna is in such a safe, loving, and fun environment. You make a big difference for both of us—thank you for everything you do!”

“I had a fantastic experience with Kris & Daniel! They took great care of my dog and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy. I really appreciated the regular updates and pictures throughout the day - it gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. They even took him out for multiple walks. I'll definitely be booking with them again. Highly recommended!”

About: Through all of my training, I’ve missed my furry friends! Counting down until I am able to get a dog on my own. I enjoy taking care of dogs of all shapes and sizes. Older dogs who like to relax or more energetic pups who need some exercise. The apartment is about 600 sq feet and there is an outdoor dog run within the building. There is more green space a few blocks away and for dogs who like more exercise the lake is about a mile away. Either myself or my partner will be home during the day when your pup is visiting. Available for drop off/pick up anytime. We are flexible and can make it work for your schedule. I have an apartment for the dog to relax and can crate if needed. Overnight stay is flexible but if possible would prefer the dog to be crate trained. The apartment has 24/7 security in place and the dog run is on the rooftop so would need to tolerate a short elevator ride.

“Carly was great with Willis! She sent pictures throughout the stay and provided regular updates. She was flexible with timing too which I really appreciated. Definitely recommend!”

About: Hi there! I’m Paige, a full-time marketing manager who works from home, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your dog the attention they deserve. My best friend and co-pilot, Ryha (a sweet Cavapoo), is always by my side, and we’re always up for a walk or a play session. We’re lucky to live close to some amazing dog parks where I take Ryha multiple times a day, and your dog would be more than welcome to join us! I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and personalities—from active breeds like German Shepherds and Labs to laid-back pups like Bernese Mountain Dogs and English Cream Retrievers. I know how to provide the care, structure, and love that each individual dog needs. Whether your dog is a high-energy adventurer or a calm cuddle bug, I’ll make sure they feel at home, happy, and safe. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family and provide a mix of fun, exercise, and affection, I’d love to meet them! Ryha and I are excited to welcome a new furry friend into our home and make their time with us memorable. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to provide regular walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. My morning starts with a walk or outdoor play session, followed by check-ins, feeding, and cuddles as needed. I structure my day around your pet’s needs, whether it's additional play, downtime, or walks. I’m able to provide constant supervision and care, making sure your pet feels loved and comfortable at all times. I prioritize safety and comfort when caring for pets in my home. My building has a fully fenced-in turf dog area, perfect for outdoor play, and I can easily crate pets if needed for safety or rest. Inside, I ensure all spaces are secure and pet-friendly. For dogs, I supervise walks and playtime, and for cats, I create quiet, safe areas to relax. I’m committed to treating your pet with love and care while keeping them safe and comfortable!

“Austin was a wonderful daycare sitter for Coco! Tintin is also the best little pup - he and Coco were running around and playing right away. Austin was great about sending updates throughout the day. I would highly recommend!”

“Best last minute dog sitter ever! So friendly and kind! Took very well of my husky Kaia!!definitely recommend to use if you ever need a sitter in Chicago!”

“Matt was great! We were visiting out of town and headed to the air show for the day where dogs are not allowed and needed a place for our pup. He’s in a great location downtown. He communicated well and was so kind to Plato. We come through Chicago every summer for vacation and will look him up again.”
