Dog Boarding Portage Park

“Tammy gave me updates and shared photos of the dogs while we were away for a long weekend. She had fun toys available for them to play with. The dogs were happy and content when I picked-up them up. I would definitely ask her to dog sit again.”

“Camile and her husband Joe are a lovely couple who work together to give the best care for your baby. They have a beautiful, clean home with a large, wonderful, fenced backyard. My elderly dog was treated like a little king...and he had a walk to the park every day. They do a stellar job!”

“Rico and his wife were such a great hosts for Wylie. We felt so good about leaving him in good hands. They played with him in their yard, walked him, and just overall took great care of him. He is excited for his next stay and we are definitely booking with Rico again.”

“Rima was amazing with our pup. We felt at peace to leave Milo with her while on vacation. We received pictures and updates on his adjusten and it was a great feeling to know he's OK and we didn't have to worry about him at all. Thanks Rima.”

Aiste C.

“We had a fantastic first experience with leaving our pup Ace for 4 days/3 nights. We were given updates with pics and videos multiple times a day which eased all our minds at leaving our 4 legged family member while we were on a ski trip. Joe is clearly knowledgeable on how to acclimate a dog to new surroundings and caretaker. We appreciate his insight as a certified dog trainer; we are lucky to have been connected to him and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”

Elizabeth S.

“Jacob was a fantastic sitter for Shaq! He was always very responsive, provided regular updates, and even made sure Shaq got his playtime indoors when the wildfire smoke outside was hazardous. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter that will provide your pup with peace of mind while you're away!”

Nathan B.

“Jasmine did a great job, taking care of our dog James she sent pictures and updates, and our dog came back very happy. We will be rebooking with her in the future!”

Elizabeth H.

“Diana and Scott are wonderful. Ruby has stayed with them several times and she's always comfortable and happy at their home. They're communicative and kind and make traveling so easy, never having to worry that Ruby is receiving the best care.”

Leanne L.

“Arlene was easy to work with and communicative throughout the entire booking and boarding process. Our dog came home happy. I would recommend Arlene to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”

Caitlin J.

“Iwona was wonderful with Symmie! She sent us tons of lovely pictures and messages. I met her, her daughter, and Baxter before we Symmie's stay, and they were all very kind. I was a little bit nervous because Symmie can get shy around bigger dogs, but Baxter wasn't pushy at all. I would definitely recommend Iwona and her family!”

Moses B.

“Will be using your services again! Appreciate your attention and love to my little puppies! Thanks for making me feel at peace while they were away!”

James D.

“Another awesome stay with Darla, Greg, and Shandy! They always allow Zoe to make herself right at home and we are so appreciative. Daily photos and check ins were amazing — we loved seeing Zoe enjoying their yard, playtime with Shandy, and cuddling up inside. Can’t thank them enough!”

About: Hi! I'm a seasoned pet caretaker with experience caring for dogs and cats, including puppies, senior pets, and pets with special medical or behavioral needs. I grew up with dogs and have been a petsitter, dog walker, and a pet foster mom for many years. I have experience training dogs, administering medication, and preparing meals for special diets. I know that every dog or cat is different, and I tailor my care to their specific needs and personalities. I provide the level of experience you can trust and the loving care your pet will enjoy! I work from home and have a flexible schedule during the week. When petsitting, I'm able to accommodate as many walks as your dog prefers and lots and lots of play time! I'm also free on weekends. I strive to keep your pet's routine and comfort level the same as if you were there. I know consistency is key to a happy cat or dog! For dogs that I board, I live right next to beautiful Winnemac Park, which pups really love (on a leash, of course). I do live in a third floor walk-up, so boarded dogs would need to be able to handle stairs, or be comfortable with/small enough to be carried. Also, please note: I have a full-time remote job. It's very flexible and leaves me with lots of time for walks, potty breaks, meds, feeding, play time, etc. But on weekdays I will need to be at my computer (including occasional 30-60 min zoom calls) throughout the day. On weekends, I will not be working.

“Tracy and Rick are the best! We had some travel delays and Tracy was happy to accommodate our schedule. Our pup, Romy, is always so happy to stay there ☺️”

“David made my pup feel right at home! I was gone for a few days and David took care of Bernie like he was his own! Bernie got to play with other dogs and even eat a Thanksgiving feast. I’ve never seen him so tuckered out and well behaved afterwards! I am so relieved and felt truly safe leaving my dog with David! Would absolutely book him again!”

“Jessie was calm and happy upon pickup. Brian took good care of him. This was our second time leaving Jessie with Brian and we would do it again.”

Rima B.

“Irene was amazing for our dog’s short stay! She sent regular updates with photos, followed our instructions, and Alkali was cozy while staying at their house. We will book her again.”
