Dog Boarding Rockford

“My dogs spent 10 days with Theresa. She sent lots of pictures and they looked like they had a great time with her! We will definitely use her again.”

“I feel like we have found a diamond in the rough. Jacqueline, Kris and Bella are so kind and truly are dog lovers. We received updates with pictures during Piper's stay. Their fenced in yard was perfect for Piper to run and sniff. Cannot say enough positive remarks regarding the excellent care Piper received. We highly recommend Jacqueline's family for daycare or boarding, and will be boarding again in the future!”

“The dogs had a great time during their first stay here! Sumer and her family were able to take them some what short notice as our long time boarder was unexpectedly moving out of town and we really appreciated that. They took great care of the dogs and our dogs had fun playing with their pups. They have a good size backyard and we were happy to get pictures and updates that they were doing well. Thanks again!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 11 years, beginning with my own Yorkie Terrier, Lola. I got Lola when I was in 9th grade, and she was one of my first big responsibilities growing up. I’ve had her ever since, and caring for her throughout her entire life has taught me a lot about patience, consistency, and paying attention to a dog’s individual needs. Over the years, I’ve handled all aspects of Lola’s care, including daily walks, feeding, bathing, grooming, and administering medication. I’ve also cared for larger dogs, including a Weimaraner and a Golden Retriever, staying with both for five days. I currently work from home 90% of the time in marketing and communications for a nonprofit, so I have a flexible schedule and am able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I also live an active lifestyle and love going on walks, getting outside, and spending time with dogs. What I love most about dogs is how energetic and affectionate they are. I’m patient, attentive, and want every pet I care for to feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owner is away. I also enjoy cats and have spent time around them during college. While I’m newer to caring for cats independently, I’m very comfortable following an owner’s instructions and learning each pet’s individual routine. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. Monday through Friday, I wake up around 5 a.m. and go to the gym before starting work. I’m back home around 7 a.m., which is when my dog usually wakes up. She’s a small senior dog who loves to sleep in and stay warm! I take her outside as soon as I get home, then prepare her breakfast. I work from home from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day. I give my dog a smalll lunch around noon, depending on when I take my own lunch break, and take her outside afterward. She has dinner around 5:30 p.m., followed by another potty break. On weekends (during warmer weather, 40 degrees and up), I typically wake up around 7 a.m., feed my dog and take her outside, then head to the gym. When I get back, we go on a 20-minute neighborhood walk together. She gets another meal and potty break around 12:30 p.m., and I usually run errands afterward. Dinner is around 5:30 p.m., followed by another potty break. At the end of the day, after dinner, I also make time for her dental cleaning as part of her regular routine. Because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, breaks, walks, and companionship throughout the day. My priority is to make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I’ll always follow the instructions and routines provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, potty breaks, and any other specific needs. I also think communication is important, so I’m happy to provide updates while you’re away and let you know how your pet is doing. Depending on the pet and the service, I enjoy spending time playing, going on walks, giving plenty of attention and cuddles, and simply keeping them company.

“Kelly was fantastic. She was able to board my dude when I had no other viable options at a time I could not look after my dude. 1000% recommend her to others.”

“Kaitlyn was great! She was so caring and helpful in responding to my concerns and questions. Also so prompt in all my communications. It is a big plus to know that she is a vet tech and knows what to do! She keeps her home and pet areas so clean and I love all the puzzles she did with our dogs. She sent pictures with the dog’s activities from each day. I will definitely use Kaitlyn again! She is GREAT!!”

About: I've been a dog owner for as long as I can remember. I currently have one nine year old Chihuahua mix on seizure medicine twice a day. We have a fenced in yard with a chain link fence perfect for letting your dog run around. I am usually up by 5am to go for a run or cycle. I work from home regularly so I can be flexible with letting the dogs out. I have a fenced in yard with one friendly dog of my own to keep your dog company. I have cameras in the home to keep an eye on the pups if I do need to run out.

About: My husband and I are frequently taking care of our grand pups! Both 4 years old. We treat them like our own. One’s a chocolate lab, the other is a dachshund. I am an early riser. I get my morning exercise done then am pretty free the rest of the day. With the exception of an occasional appointment here and there. We do not have a fenced yard but would do daily walks. We have a path near our home. We also have lots of dog toys.

About: I am life long animal lover with 30 plus years experience caring for pets of all kind. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, & birds, including administrations of medications, monitoring heath, and providing comfort of pets with special needs. I understand that ever animal had unique behaviors. My experience extends beyond every day care. I have volunteered extensively at veterinary clinics and animal shelter, gained hands on knowledge of animal heath , behavior and emotional support. I work remotely and set my own schedule, allowing me to provide consistent, attentive pet care, adjusting my day to meet each animals needs reliably I provide loving care for pets in my home or your home, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment. Pet owners trust me to watch over their animals, follow care instructions, and give attention to, exercise, and affection as needed. I prioritize their well being and create a reliable , nurturing space when pets feel secure and care for

About: I have a wealth of experience caring for dogs of all sizes while their parents were on vacation. I’m skilled in handling potty-trained puppies and have experience with special needs dogs, including those who are deaf or blind. Ensuring their comfort and well-being is my top priority. I love to keep pet parents updated with plenty of photos, whether I'm providing drop-in services or taking them for a walk. Although, I do not have boarding or house sitting not active if you reach out to me I can see if we can make something work. While I am pregnant, I can still hustle and would love to meet your pet to see if we are a match for dog walking! Additionally, I have experience with exotic birds and small mammals like hamsters and rats. Plus, as a proud cat mom, I understand the unique needs of our feline friends! As a dedicated dog walker and pet mom myself, my schedule is quite flexible as a server compared to the traditional 9-to-5. This allows me to easily adapt to your needs and ensure that your furry friend gets the bathroom breaks & love they deserve. My off-peak hours, especially during the winter months, give me even more time to devote to your pet, ensuring they receive all the love and attention they need! While I don't offer boarding in my home due to having a small child and four cats, I'm more than happy to accommodate pets that are friendly and comfortable with little ones. I invite any pet parents to set up a meet and greet to ensure a good fit. During their stay, pets are treated like family and are allowed on our couch and bed, enjoying a cozy, loving environment. When caring for pets in your home, I understand how important security and peace of mind are. I’m completely comfortable with having cameras inside for your reassurance, and I promise to respect your space by not bringing anyone else into your home—trust is key. With extensive experience in house sitting and dog sitting prior to joining Rover, I always take the time to go over your pet’s daily routine, ensuring they feel at ease. This way, you can enjoy your vacation with complete peace of mind! I also love sending updates and pictures everyday.

“Stefanie was great with Luna. Sent pictures and kept me updated! I felt at ease knowing Luna was being loved in a pet friendly home while I was away. Thank you!”
