Home with fenced in back yard.

Hi, we’re Troy & Zsuzsa, dog lovers based in Chicago, and we’d love to welcome your pup into our home. We understand how important it is to find caring, trustworthy people to watch your dog, so we provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet will be treated like family. We only host one dog at a time, allowing us to give your pup plenty of personal attention, care, and companionship. Our larger-than-average Chicago fenced backyard is perfect for playtime, sniffing adventures, and outdoor relaxation. Inside, dogs are welcome on the furniture, have cozy beds, toys, and lots of affection throughout the day. Your dog will never be left alone for long periods. We enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and routine. Whether your pup loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or just relaxing nearby, we adapt to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. Our goal is for you to feel completely at ease while you’re away, knowing your dog is safe, loved, and well cared for. We’d love the chance to meet you and your best friend soon!

Mia had a great time with Troy! We received pictures and updates every day and Mia was a very camper when we picked her up. We would definitely rebook with Troy😀

Troy and his family were amazing with taking care of our dog. They sent pictures and updates regularly to let us know how he’s doing. He seemed very happy when we went to pick him up and totally recommend them. Our dog has found a new home here!

I can't thank Troy enough for watching Kash on such short notice! I was in a bind, and they were a lifesaver. Kash came home happy and tired, which is always a good sign. I got updates and pictures throughout the time I was away, which gave me total peace of mind. I would 100% recommend Troy to anyone looking for a responsible and caring dog sitter!"
