“Milo's stay at Stella's was great! I appreciated her honesty as he has some treat aggression. He was great with her dog Buddy and liked one of the other dogs staying but not the labradoodle. I'm grateful she was able to keep him a little later too, as our flight got back late. She sent pictures regularly and I loved seeing Milo in motion! Thank you for taking such great care of my little pup!”
“Another great stay for our Penny! Debbie is so good at sending pics and keeping us updated on how Penny is doing while we’re away so we have total peace of mind.”
“Angela and Dave took great care of Mr Bubbles. We had a last minute cancellation, and had to book with them the night before we left on vacation. They were so nice and understanding. I felt so comfortable leaving our family dog with them. I got pictures and daily updates while he was with them. Bubbles came home happy and tired, I can tell he had a great time playing with their dogs.”
“Megan was very welcoming and accommodated some last-minute travel plans and made Copper feel right at home. He also got along well with her three pups. He enjoyed having a fenced in backyard where he could run around and play. Thank you!”
“Carla and her family are amazing! I would absolutely leave Cooper with her again. She sent so many photos and videos, it was nice to know how Cooper was doing. Great family, great communication, and Cooper had a great time!”
“Dickson is a top-notch sitter. He is very skilled at knowing a dog intuitively. Our dog is rambunctious at times and he was very careful about when he needed to intervene. He gave our dog medicine as requested without a problem. His backyard is huge and fenced and we saw how our dog loved to be out. We cannot give him enough praise! Thank you, Dickson.”
“We were very happy to find Joanne and her family to care for our dog Tipper. They were very friendly and very complimentary of Tipper when we had our meet and greet. Tipper is a high energy pup and got along well with their dog Honey. Joanne sent daily updates with pictures which we appreciated. When we picked Tipper up she had all her things packed up and ready to go. We appreciated that because we were tired from our trip. We were also pleased that Tipper was tired too. This tells us she was given lots of attention and activity during her stay at Joanne’s. Tipper spent the afternoon and evening napping as we did too. We have already mentioned to Joanne that we’d like to use her again this summer. We highly recommend her as a great dog sitter!”

Jill went above and beyond to ensure Mia was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of during our time away. She kept us updated with sweet photos and messages, which made us feel connected to Mia even when we were apart. You can tell that Jill is a true animal lover—her attention to detail and commitment to our dog's well-being was evident in everything she did. Mia absolutely adored her, and we are so grateful to have found such a wonderful dog sitter. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, Jill is the one! Highly recommend!”

We highly recommend Thanit and will definitely rebook if we need daycare in the future. So pleased with our experience!”

“Kayla is the best! Very genuine. Always leaves great comments and takes the most adorable pictures of our pup. I would highly recommend Kayla to look after your pup without any worry!”
“Samantha did a great job with our Rocco! We originally were a bit nervous because Rocco is a pitbull and to some the bully breed can be intimidating, but once we all got to meet and she saw Rocco for who he really is, it was a good experience! Rocco gets excited when we tell him that he’s going on his walks now in the morning! Can wait to continue to have Samantha as our Dog Walker!”
“Accepted last minute with two dogs she didn’t get to meet beforehand (one being only 8 months with a lot of energy). She did an awesome job. Great communication. Prompt updates and adjusting with requests on the fly. Will be using again.”

“Malachi was great with my pup (that is the important thing) and very eager to provide me with great service. I would recommend him to anyone. We had a few technical glitches, and there are a few thoughts I think I will share with him privately, but those don’t lower his star rating because he really did provide great service. He was very communicative, respected my property, and took great care of of my dog. You should book him and see for yourself.”
“Gyula walks my two Labs regularly, and I highly recommend him for your dog's needs. He has years of experience working with all types of dogs and has the skills to manage them competently and with a great attitude.

This tells us she was given lots of attention and activity during her stay at Joanne’s. Tipper spent the afternoon and evening napping as we did too. We have already mentioned to Joanne that we’d like to use her again this summer. We highly recommend her as a great dog sitter!”
“Melody was fabulous. Can’t say enough great things about her. She sent multiple pics and kept us updated. Our pup was very happy and quite thrilled to stay with her! Would recommend to anyone:)”
“Zeni loves being with Tommy and Julie. They’re very sweet and dedicated to my pup and are always available for my short notice visits. They bathed him before I picked him up after being with them for almost a week! Big shout out to them!!!”
“We couldn't be more thrilled with the care Jill provided for our dog, Mia! From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease knowing Mia was in such loving and capable hands. Jill went above and beyond to ensure Mia was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of during our time away. She kept us updated with sweet photos and messages, which made us feel connected to Mia even when we were apart. You can tell that Jill is a true animal lover—her attention to detail and commitment to our dog's well-being was evident in everything she did. Mia absolutely adored her, and we are so grateful to have found such a wonderful dog sitter. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, Jill is the one! Highly recommend!”
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.
“Anna, took really great care of our Golden Retriever, Beau! I was pleased the find her taking him for a walk when I called to pick him up early. We appreciate her flexibility and love for dogs!”
“Awesome. That's the review. But in all seriousness, easy communication, easy logistics. This warm and friendly couple took care of my dog, and she (the dog) was very happy upon my return. No issues. They do one dog at a time, and have a fenced in yard.”
“Dorothy is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her enough. She took the time to get to know my pup and her needs, and sent many updates while we were away. We are happy to have found someone we trust so much!”
