Ratings and reviews
Kim is amazing and took care of our Goldendoodle puppy very well. She’s very patient and send us many updates with photos and videos. Our dog came back to us clean and happy. I trust Kim with my baby boy and I can leave him with 100% peace of mind.
Kim treats Frankie like he is her own dog. So loving and caring. Frankie loves spending time with Kim 💕
Kim took really good care of my dogs. She constantly provided me with videos of them playing in her yard and updates on their feeding schedule and esting habits. My 2 dogs seem to have had a great time staying at her home for a few days. I will definitely book her again in the future.
Kim was very communicative before and during our dogs’ stay. They had a great time!
Kim is patient and loving and Frankie enjoyed his long walk and time playing in the large fenced in yard. We are so happy that we found Kim to watch our puppy when we have family outings. Thank you so much!
Another wonderful stay with Kim! She took exceptional care of our 5-month-old pup, showing so much love and patience throughout. Yoshi was still adjusting, and Kim handled his puppy energy and behaviors with ease and understanding. She even kept him safe and calm during a long tornado warning, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her fenced yard was perfect for helping him burn off energy, and she went above and beyond by teaching him how to play fetch—and even a little soccer! We also really appreciated the daily updates and photos, especially since we missed him a lot while we were away. We always feel confident leaving Yoshi with Kim—she consistently provides such thoughtful, attentive care. Highly recommend!

Schedule
I am available 7 days a week for boarding with the exception of when I might be away on vacation, or have no more vacancies. Normal business hours of operation for drop-offs and pick-ups are M-F 8:30am to 7pm, Saturday 9am-6pm, and Sunday, 12pm to 5pm. I am conveniently located in a nice neighborhood just minutes from Six Flaggs Great America, Great Wolfe Lodge Water Park, and Gurnee Mills Mall. So caring for your family pet(s) will be a win-win for both you and me.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a large fenced in yard for room to run and play. I also have a screened in patio for a place to enjoy the fresh air outdoors when the weather doesn't cooperate and a place to dry off after they are out in the snow or rain.
A typical day
Weather permitting, we can check out the neighborhood and Lake Park on our walks. We can play fetch or frisbee in the back yard. We can play tug of war.
