Z-Pak Pet Care - Downers Grove

Pet care experience

Z-Pak Pet Care & EZK9 Training – Downers Grove, IL Caring for pets and training dogs are my favorite things to do. All of my guests receive optimal care throughout the day that includes lots of loves and cuddles, lots of playtime, fresh drinking water, plenty of time outside in the fresh air, and sleeping areas that are comfortable, safe and secure. I have opened my home to many dogs who while boarding with me also received training. I use a combination of positive training methods, interactive games, and lots of exercise to create the perfect environment for learning. My park-like yard has a nice combination of patios, grass, stepping stones, dry river beds, trees and shade. The yard is enclosed by a 5-foot chain link fence and two sides have privacy fencing. I even built an over-hang right outside the back door for pups who do not like to get wet when they go out to potty! Plus, I have a large garage which at times is used on rainy days to play in. My home is pet friendly! It is cozy and your pups are allowed freedom throughout. A living room, kitchen and three bedrooms makes up the upstairs. I converted one of the bedrooms into a fun and beautifully designed puppy play room where pups love to hang out and play. My basement has a large multi-purpose room I use for grooming, training, exercise and playtime. It has ramps, tunnels, toys, balls, and mentally stimulating games to play with. It’s sort of like a mini doggy day care room. Boarding can create anxiety and stress on your pup. I understand that. I have a dog training certification from Animal Behavior College and over 200 hours of doggy day care experience and understand how different environments can impact a pup’s well-being. It is my priority to make sure that your pup(s) are totally happy, comfortable and trusting toward me while staying at my home. I will do whatever is needed to ensure a positive experience. Thank you for your interest in my services. Eve and the Z-Pak: Elsie, Gus, Celie, Cabo and Clark the cat

Eve was awesome. Axel is new to the area and she was very patient with him. She gave me updates and pics. I would highly recommend her.

Hi, Eve was a sweetheart. She watched my 11 year old Bishon for 4 days and overnight. she was kind and conscientious, communicated well, sent pictures while i was away, and she took wonderful care of her. i didn't think my dog would want to come home, since she had Eve and Eve's pups to play with. Yes, i would definitely use Eve again to watch my Bishon

Perfect sitter for my cocker spaniel, as Eve has cockers too, and they got along so nicely. Also, Eve understands all the special needs and cares for my aging dog. Drop off and pick ups accommodated easily.

I can not say enough wonderful things about Eve. We adopted an abused dog who has fear aggression and will snarl, growl and lunge. She knew exactly how to handle him and it was clear she has had years and years experience in handling even the most difficult dogs. More than this, she has the biggest heart and will love and take care of your dog like its her own. Speaking of she has 4 of the most adorable, sweet, amazingly trained cocker spaniels that made my dog's stay so much fun. Simply put, she is a dog expert with a gentle touch and kind heart. We are very happy to have found our new dog sitter and will be using her again soon! Thanks again Eve!
