Doggy Day Care in Rockton

About: My name is Thomas, and my girlfriend's name is Emily. Together we have 8+ years of experience with pet care. Emily grew up on a farm around animals, and I grew up with a dog. We also own a fur baby together and have had her since she was a puppy. She is now 8 years old. Emily is a real estate agent and works from home all day so will be able to tend to your pets whenever they are in need. I am home in the morning, afternoons, and weekends so will be able to help out with overnight stays. We are a cage free home that allows pets on the furniture and bed. We care for pets by taking them on walks throughout the day and ensuring each one is catered to for its individual needs. We would love to watch your furbaby today! Reach out with any questions. I work from home so am able to tend to the dogs anytime they need something. I can care for them in anyway the owner requests. I will take the pets on walks, and make sure they are fed. I will treat them as if they were my own pet and make sure they feel safe and loved while they are in my care.

About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life. I’ve cared for animals ranging from mice to horses. I have worked in vet clinics and have done a lot of research on my own time. They are my passion. I currently have the most experience in dogs. I’m actively an apprentice with a local dog trainer to be a positive reinforcement force free trainer. I am also studying canine behavior. I have experience in doggy daycare, boarding, and grooming. I have administered medications ranging from oral medicine to injections (subq and intermuscular). Like I said before, I love em like my own! I am home all day most days. I do have two dogs of my own so they are always outside playing. Pet care is what I do when I wake up to when I go to bed. I’m available most days for play dates, walks, boarding, grooming, and more! I have a large fenced in yard. I also have so so many dog toys. I have two dogs as well so your baby can make friends! I can offer crates when we leave or at night if you prefer! I have plenty of house for them to be in as well, also plenty of people to love on them! Your baby will never be alone!

“Theresa took in our dog on short notice and provided overnight care when we had a bit of a family emergency out of town. She took several photos and provided updates as well. We will continue to trust our somewhat special needs dog with her. It seems clear that our dog enjoys staying there as well. Which brings us a lot of peace about trusting our dog with someone. Thank you, Theresa, for your love and care for our little member of our family!”

“Let me start off by saying that Ella was absolutely amazing!!! I mean from start to finish she is phenomenal, her energy is amazing and she took care of my dog so so well!! She communicated the entire time and sent pictures and my dog looked replaced and happy! My dog is usually anxious in the car but for some reason when I picked her up she was relaxed and calmed which ensured she was comfortable and is beginning to recognize that I will always come back got her. Ella you are truly an angel and I look forward to future visits”

“I scheduled a meet and greet with Chris and Dan and they were so wonderful and patient with my 14 year old Weimaraner Ozzie. They are knowledgable with dog behavior and their 2 German Sheppards are very well behaved. After meeting Chris and Dan I felt comfortable booking a 4 day stay. Recently Ozzie spent a few hours at Chris and Dan's home so he could become a little more familiar with them and their dogs before his 4 day stay. They made sure Ozzie was comfortable and I am confident that Ozzie will be in great hands whenever he spends time with them.”

About: I've had dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up with them. I currently have a very energetic 3 year old female boxer name Parker and a 9 month old mix who would love some company! I am currently working from home full time. So I am home all day. Your pet would have my full attention. No need to worry! My dogs had free range of the house. We also have a dog park that we frequently visit with 7 minutes of our home. Which is in a gated community.

“Claudia is a loving, caring and responsible pet owner. She cared for my dog like he was her own. It's awesome that she has a backyard and the neighborhood is very nice. I also appreciate that she works from home so my dog always has someone around. You will really enjoy getting to know Claudia. She is a very caring person.”

I never leave the house for more than an hour or two, and that is typically on weekends or in the evening. My dogs are very secure and spoiled by my attention, and yours will be, too! My two sweet female dogs are both spayed and are very friendly to other dogs and people. Prior to moving to IL, I fostered dogs and watched other animals on Rover.

“Lauren was so good to our dog who is shy but super friendly. She made him feel at home and played his favorite game of fetch. He was tired when he came home and he slept the entire night. We will definitely use Lauren again. She even sent a little video of him to us.”

About: I am a certified veterinary technician with an additional certification in massage and rehab therapy. I have been working in the animal care industry since 2012 and have worked with and trained dogs for a long as I can remember. I offer expert level care for medically complex cases and a fear free approach for anxious pets. I have experience working with anxious and aggressive dogs. Being crate trained is a must and I ask that you bring your pet's crate with you for overnight stays. Self- employed with a flexible schedule, I have all day availability and can also do early morning and late evening drop ins. I only take 1 client at a time so that I can give your pet's the care and attention they deserve. Because I only take one client at a time, I can offer a stress free stay for animal aggressive pets. All animals will be directly supervised or crated while boarding

“Jennifer is amazing we have recurring visits for doggy day care and the dogs love going there. She took adorable photos with the witch costumes I sent them with. She even clipped my one dogs nails today. She’s an amazing sitter and your pets will be so well taken care of if they go here. You can’t find a better sitter. Lots of love and lots of care and so many photos and videos. It’s the best solution if your babies need someone to care or they while your away. I can’t say enough great stuff about her.”

“Sarah and her pack did awesome!!! Can't thank her enough for taking in Winnie on such short notice. When I picked up Winnie I was taken back at how much Winnie had bonded with Sarah in such a short period of time. Sarah was aware of Winnie's IBD issues and updated me on how she did. I really appreciated her for that!!!! This family definitely loves dogs!!!”

About: Ever since I was a little kid, I have loved animals! I grew up with 2 Siberian husky’s with tons of energy! Between going on walks, countless snuggles, playing outside, and lots of belly rubs, i developed an adoration for dogs! I have pet sat for friends, neighbors, and others in the community since I can remember! Since moving to Milwaukee, I want to get to know and love more furry friends! I am currently a teacher in Milwaukee! As summer time is quickly approaching *yayy* I want to fill my time with some furry friends! I am available for most of the summer, and during the school year, I work during the day, but have decent hours to be able to come home and play in the afternoons! I have a private, secure yard where your pet can safely play and relax. I also don’t have any children or pets of my own, so your fur baby will receive my full attention, care, and love during their stay.

About: I've been a dog owner for 20 years. Over the last 10 years, friends, family and neighbors have entrusted me with taking care of their dogs. 2 years ago, I took on the venture of fostering dogs in my home. My experience with them has been with puppies through adult dogs. Special needs dogs are welcome too, as I have experience with dogs with seizure disorder and other chronic issues. During the time the foster dogs are in my care, I work to establish a routine, learn basic commands and household manners. I work from home Monday-Friday. My pets (and fosters) stay in my office with me when I working. I am able to care for your pets during my breaks, lunchtime and after hours. My weekends can be a bit more busy, but I can be flexible in working with your needs. I have a small fenced in yard for the dogs to stretch their legs, enjoy the outdoors, and of course relieve themselves. Indoors, I do have crates available if your dogs needs some alone, quiet time. My dogs have their own room to offer a safe space for them. The dogs are never left unattended to ensure they don't get into something they are not suppose to. If watching the dog in your home, I will follow any instructions that you give to ensure your dog's safety and happiness.

“Rylee had a great day with Laurie. Lots of personal attention and a long walk. SO glad to have connected with Laurie!”
