Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Jessica and Welcome to Lake Forest Bark! My partner Brian and I have been pet owners for the last 20+ years. We both love dogs and sharing our home with them. We have hostied dogs through Rover and before that, Dog Vacay for over 15 years. I work from home so dogs are rarely left unattended for more than a few hours at a time. We have about 1/3 acre which is fenced and wooded. Plenty of room to roam and lots of squirrels and birds to chase. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and stay indoors while we are away. We have access to parks and walks are always 'on the house'. We have two resident dogs, Finn, a Pekingese and Marky, an Affenpinscher. Finn is a typical Pekingese, calm, independent, majestic and plays well but and not very active for any length of time. He loves meeting new friends though and is our Lake Forest Bark Ambassador. Marky is a little over two years old and loves to PARTY!! He’s 11 pounds of pure play. He’s never met a dog he doesn’t like and will play with guests for hours. He even gets the shy ones out of their shell. We prefer small to medium breeds but would welcome large dogs provided that they are older or otherwise gentle and calm. I can also pick up and drop off at your home for an added fee. We look forward to caring for your buddy like they were our own. "A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than himself."

Jessica was great! It was really wonderful to not have a worry about my 2 puppies for my daughter's wedding weekend. My puppies were well cared for and had a wonderful time playing with the resident dogs too! Thank you Jessica!!!

My dog loved staying with Jessica so much that she didn’t want to leave! I adopted her not too long ago and I think the socialization with her dogs, Fin and Marky did her a world of good l. It was like doggy summer camp! Jessica is responsive and has a ton of experience. Would 110% have Pop stay with them again!!

Jessica's yard is heaven for a Beagle. It's large and abundantly covered with a huge variety of things to sniff. Shady places to rest when he needed to take a break. Her dogs were friendly but let him just sleep when he wanted to. (he's 11). Jessica was great about following up on my questions. It was a short visit but we will book again.

Great people and awesome communication. Was very flexible when I had to book last minute. Cute dogs all around with plenty of yard space to run. Hoku came back tired from all the playtime!
