We love your dog like our own!!
Pet care experience
Stefanie and Nathan have owned dogs and watched dogs for others their entire lives. Stefanie currently works at an animal hospital in Chicago and previously worked for a dog daycare for 6 years. She’s loved every minute of both of these positions and continually enjoys going to work every single day! We own three dogs ourselves, Abby, an all white Husky who is 9 years old who we rescued her from a shelter when she was 4, Stanley, a 5 year old Sharpei-Hound mix who we adopted recently after a close relative passed on, and Louise, who is our 1.5 year old black Husky who is a ball of puppy energy. Between us being on Rover for three years and Stefanie taking our girls with her to work at the animal hospital, they are very well socialized to all sorts of dogs. Whether they're small or large, puppies or older dogs they love the interaction and can scale appropriately. Stef and Nate have basic knowledge of dog medications and avid experience recognizing behavioral traits and needs of dogs. Your fur kids are allowed to lounge on furniture if they like (or not if you prefer to maintain a habit) or they have their choice of multiple dog beds throughout the house! Or if they would prefer their own personal space, we can offer a crate as well. **PROMOTION**: If you have stayed with us, leave a written review and we'll provide you with a promo code for 10% off your next service (one-time use, can be used at your discretion). All kind words and constructive criticisms are appreciated and helps us better our service. Nate currently works from home and has the capability to give loads of attention and outside time! He even works outside in the backyard during the more hospitable months occasionally so the dogs will get plenty of outside time and play time. Stefanie works at the animal hospital full time but is home most of Tuesday, all of Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday each week! We have a big backyard where your dog and ours can do all the zoomies and play! We also go on early morning/evening walks frequently. However, we do keep in mind environmental conditions like intense heat/cold and hot or salty (winter only) pavement to be sure we keep your fur kids safe from the elements until it becomes a bit more hospitable for walking. Additionally we can crate or not upon request for your fur kid.
Reviews
Nate was accommodating and flexible with my busy schedule! My dog always enjoys his stay there.
Great stay! Received pictures and updates frequently
I left Ody and Cairo for a weekend trip and they looked like they had lots of fun! Anywhere they have friends to play with is good for them as they are very energetic. They were well taken care of and kept communication with pictures and videos. I felt good leaving both my babies there. I’m always nervous leaving my dogs anywhere but I am glad that my boys enjoyed their stay. One of the perks is location because they live close to the airport.
This was my 4th time with them and they’re always the best! I have a super energetic Husky girl and they’re always the best with her. Thank you so much for your amazing care of my Luna!

Loads of supervised playtime! Your furbaby will never be unattended outside without one of us out there with them! We can play ball, play through some sprinklers and go for long neighborhood walks to get all the sniffs in!
