Dog Boarding Prairie Grove

“If I could give 10 stars I would! Carla and her family were such a great match for our two dogs. Our 2 girls came home happy & tired. The dogs got even more love, attention and exercise than normal and Carla gave me so many updates while I was away. As a pet parent we will 100% be using her again as it was one of the best experiences we've had and we had the best piece of mind while we were gone.”

“Dickson was absolutely wonderful with Zeus and our puppy, Gaia. We received pictures and videos throughout out vacay and we did not worry about the doggies at all. The big back yard was wonderful for them to run around. We will definitely be using Dickson again.”

“JoAnne is amazing, great!! She is super nice and took care of my beagle as if she was hers. She has taken care of Keyla twice already. I highly recommend her and for sure would leave my dear Keyla again with her. She is the best.”

“Jessica took great care of Avery. She was boarding another rat terrier at the same time and took steps to ensure the two dogs got along at feeding time. Her daughter made sure Avery got lots of love and exercise. She came home happy & healthy. Overall it was a great experience.”

“Jill kept our Frenchie while we were on our 2-week vacation! She communicated on a daily basis to keep me informed of Lily’s activities. Since I had recently rehomed Lily I was afraid she might have trouble adjusting, however, she did very well with the attention of Jill and her husband and the company of the other dogs!”

Sheilah H.

“Barb was great! Our dog fit right in with her family and felt at home. Communication was excellent too and we got frequent pictures of our dog.”

GERALD M.

“We can always trust that Cooper is well taken care of when he stays with Debbie and Tom. They are very kind and trustworthy. We recommend them for sure!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life. Watching family and friends dogs gives me great joy! Dogs have been a part of my whole life. I love them dearly, my sister in law travels quite often which gives me the opportunity to watch her two dogs. One is a puppy full of energy and they are so fun to spend time with and play. Love going on walks to the forest preserves out in nature. let me be your dogs new friend. I work four days a week Tuesday thru Friday until 3:30pm. I'm available for boarding Friday nights thru Monday. I can take dogs for walks on Mondays, Weekends, and Tuesday-Friday after 4. I have a big home plenty of space to run around and play. My backyard is good size and fenced in. I can update you with photos of your dog. I can maintain the feeding schedule as required. I will make sure your dog has plenty outdoor time walks or just playing in my yard.

“We couldn’t be happier about the care our greyhound Steely Dan received from Derek and his family while we were on a 3-week vacation. During the time we were away we regularly received updates and photos that assured us Steely was being made to feel at home. Derek has a large dog, Ellie, who is quite friendly, and there were no issues with Steely and Ellie spending time together. Steely is sensitive to thunderstorms, and the meds we provided were administered appropriately with no issues. Finally, when we picked Steely up, he seemed relaxed and content. We always felt confident he was in exceedingly capable hands.”

About: Bella’s Journey Pet care was born from my 16 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog from puppyhood to her senior years. This lifelong journey taught me the joys and challenges of nurturing a pet through every stage of life—from playful puppy antics to managing the unique needs of an aging pet, including mobility support, medication, and gentle care. My deep understanding of pet behavior and health means I provide patient, compassionate, and personalized care for your beloved dog. I’m dedicated to treating your pets like family, supporting their happiness and well-being. Bella has crossed the rainbow bridge, but her Mom has plenty of love to share! We were also very blessed to own and care for three horses over a period of 15 years. Much larger scale than your beloved family remember. But an added layer of comfort knowing we are equipped for small and larger responsibilities! My background in holistic approaches to pet care will also offer you and your pet ease of mind. My schedule is flexible to match that or my clients needs. In your home. Or mine if I do not have an in home overnight on the schedule. Reliable, caring in-home pet sitter providing attentive, stress-free care, feeding, walks, medication, and companionship, ensuring your pets stay comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away.

About: I am the definition of an animal lover, which I attribute to having had animals around my entire life. I grew up with Australian shepherds, German shepherds, cats, hamsters, and even tarantulas! I am extremely comfortable walking dogs, giving them medication via food, and managing when to let them out to go to the bathroom. I’m also willing to give a big furry dog a good brush if they need it! I have lived primarily with big dogs, but have had close relationships with small dogs through friends and my husband’s family whom I have dog sat for in the past. In addition, I am a massive cat lover. I was given a kitten when I was 8 years old and had her for 19 years until she just recently passed. In her senior years, she had both hypothyroidism and asthma so I am well-versed in giving cats inhalers and medication in various forms (via dropper, ear application, in treats, and in food). I am a dependable dog and cat sitter/caretaker because I know how much your animal means to you. I’m an extremely organized person so you can count on me to be reliable with pick-up, drop-off, and everything in between. Taking care of your animal would not be a job to me because I am so happy to do it! I work all day Tuesday and Thursday and the occasional Monday, Wednesday or Friday depending on when I am scheduled (only 4 hours shifts on those days) so I could watch an animal full time during three weekdays in addition to weekends. I am still more than willing to watch an animal for an entire week and either modify my work schedule to be with them more, or just make sure they are set up for the days I am in office. I have a non-smoking home with one cat and two people including myself. My home would be an extremely relaxing environment for a pet and due to my flexible schedule, I can dedicate nearly full-time care to an animal. Since I have a cat, I would only really be able to have dogs stay overnight for a couple-day stint since I'd prefer to keep them separate. In my client's home I would offer the same care in addition to respecting the environment. I'm naturally a very clean person and always pick up after myself.

“We had another wonderful experience with Kelly. Charlie stayed with her and her pups for the weekend-and it just happened to be Charlies 3rd Birthday. She went above and beyond celebrating him with homemade dog-friendly cupcakes, which was so thoughtful and adorable. It gave us such peace of mind that he was not only looked after but truly cared for. Once again he came home happy, healthy and relaxed. We are very grateful for the extra effort Kelly put in to make his Birthday special!! Highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Cheryl and her husband were so accommodating with our big pup, Titus and were so friendly and welcoming! Sent us pictures with updates and did great with him. Will definitely go to her again in the future.”

Kristen H.

“We were able to rest well on our vacation, knowing our senior dog was in good hands. Jackie was attentive to her needs and made sure she was loved on while we were away.”

Kirsten R.

“This was Remy’s first stay with Anays & Francis and she seemed to be immediately comfortable with them! I know she really enjoyed playing fetch in their fenced-in backyard. I’m so grateful for the amount of photos that I received during Remy’s 5 day stay. It was so comforting to be able to see how she was settling in. Would definitely recommend Anays & Francis to anyone who needs a sitter!!”

Brianna C.

“Jorge and family are wonderful people! Stanley had a great time and was well taken care of. Jorge’s home is perfectly suited for our dog’s needs and we will definitely be back when needed in the future. Thank you!”

Tim C.

“Anastasiia did a wonderful job watching our boy Barley on such short notice. We had two trips out of state back-to-back and she took wonderful care of him while we were away!”

Cody B.

“Thank you so much for taking Lily in and taking a good care of her. We also appreciated daily updates with pictures very much. Looking forward to more stays with Katerina!”
