About Buddy B.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
One of the many things I love about boarding a dog is it gets me out to exercise. I live close to the lake so I usually take dogs out on two longs walks, two short walks, and night/morning potty breaks (or more if needed). Also, please bring your dog's favorite toys and I will play fetch or hide-n-seek or tug-o-war in the house.
Home
Information Buddy B. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of (i.e. seizures, separation anxiety, getting into trash, chewing shoes, eating garbage on walks, disposition with other dogs/people while walking, etc.).
A typical day
I live two blocks away from the lake with lots of water, sand, grass, trees, and bushes to keep your dog engaged and stimulated. If your dog is dog friendly and is accustomed to dog parks and the dog beach, I love taking dogs out to the Prairie Wolf Dog Park in Lake Forest, IL. Also, if you make the grooming appointment, I'm more than happy to get your dog all cleaned up after our days of fun before you pick him/her up.

Loving & Experienced Dog Boarding
Pet care experience
Hi, fellow dog lovers! I’m a lifelong animal lover and the go-to person for pet care among my friends and neighbors. Growing up, I was the kid everyone called when they found an injured animal or needed a reliable dog sitter. I absolutely love dogs, but I’m not quite ready to have one of my own again—so I thought this would be a great way to enjoy some doggie companionship while helping owners who need a trustworthy sitter. To make sure your pup feels safe and stress-free in a new environment, I only take one dog at a time (unless they’re from the same household). I work from home, so your dog will get plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. Whether you need care on weekends, weekdays, or holidays, I’m happy to help! Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend—reach out anytime!
Reviews

Buddy was great, watched our dog on short notice, and communicated proactively. Very accommodating and friendly.

Another great stay with Buddy!

Thank you for another great stay and for being so flexible when my plane got delayed.

Buddy was wonderful with Lily! She is super nervous and takes time to warm up to people. Even though this is our second time staying with Buddy, it still took her some time to get settled and Buddy was very patient and let her come to him on her own terms. I especially appreciate how flexible he was when weather delayed my flight!
