Pet care experience

Trusted by Friends, Now Open to You

We've spent years caring for dogs of all kinds, including pitbulls, golden retrievers, Tibetan terriers, and goldendoodles, for friends and family. Between the two of us, we've had dogs our whole lives. We currently can't commit to having one of our own, so we pour all that love into yours instead. One of us works from home full time, meaning your dog is never alone for long and always has a warm, attentive presence around. Our building has a dedicated dog run, and with 4,000 square feet of living space and Grant Park right across the way, your dog will have plenty of room to roam, play, and explore.

Emma and Paul are perfect caretakers for our dog Rodeo. They helped a sometimes anxious dog get acclimated, showed him lots of love, and kept us updated. Thank you!

Emma has watched my pup many times and has always taken exceptional care of him! She kindly watched him for 2 weeks after a surgery I had, and he came back the happiest pup. I received so many photos of his adventures, always with a huge smile on his cute face!! Emma is caring, thoughtful, and reliable.

Schedule

One of us works from home full time, and we don't share the same days off, so there is always someone around. Your dog will never be left to their own devices for long — there's a consistent, caring presence in our home seven days a week.

Safety, trust & environment

We take the safety and comfort of every dog seriously. Our space is set up with pets in mind, and with someone always home, we're able to keep a close eye on every pup in our care. We're attentive to each dog's individual needs and temperament, and we communicate regularly with owners so you always know how your dog is doing. In the unlikely event of an emergency, we have a plan in place and will always act quickly to make sure your dog is safe.
