Dog Boarding in Wheeling

About: I've had at least one dog since I was 15, but I really started caring for them well at about 20. I feel that dogs just seem to be happier then most humans. Caring for and training dogs is what makes me a happy human. Im currently only working Rover and caring for my own pups. We have a pretty regular and smooth schedule, with lots of outside and personal time. Walk at least once a day if not twice. The house is a off the beaten path farm house with a fenced yard and nobody to bother. Two in-house dogs that sleep more then they acknowledge the existence of anything, very calm and collected. Schedules of any kind, be it- food, meds, and potty, are easily maintained and appreciated so we know they're stay is as close to home as possible for easy transitions.

“Shadow had a great time staying with Rachael. Rachael sent updates everyday with a lot of photos. She observed what shadow like to do and play. Definitely recommend her to anyone. Great location and Accommodation.”

About: I am detail oriented and love schedules. I am punctual and will send updates and photos to your specifications. Whether your babies need crated or cuddled, I am the one for the job. I am currently not working so I am available most days and weekends. I have 2 friendly dogs that love to walk and play as well. I have a fenced in yard, lots of space for the animals to roam around freely. My dogs are both friendly and happy to meet new friends.

“Breonna was a great sitter for my dog, Hank, who can be a handful sometimes. She was willing to meet me beforehand to make sure that it was a good match, and she sent pictures and a video while I was away so that I knew Hank was doing well. Not everyone can manage a rambunctious Treeing Walker Coonhound, but Breonna did extremely well, on top of offering an affordable price. If I have to go away again, I will definitely be contacting her. Highly recommend.”

“Chessie was well cared for by Brandi P. She played with Brandi’s dogs and kids, and even got to sleep on Miss Brandi’s bed. We would definitely send Chessie to “Camp Brandi” again!”

“Rachel and Mike provided an outstanding boarding experience for MY CAT, Fluffy. Awesome!!!! From the moment I left her in their care, I knew she was in the best hands. They consistently went above and beyond, making sure Fluffy received plenty of love, attention, and treats. What really set them apart was the thoughtful updates they provided—seeing pictures of Fluffy enjoying her stay brought us so much peace of mind. Rachel and Mike’s dedication to Fluffy’s comfort was truly remarkable. They even covered additional expenses to ensure she had everything she needed until we could settle up with them. 😉 Their genuine passion for pets is clear in every interaction, and it made a world of difference. If you’re searching for a reliable and caring pet boarding power couple, look no further than Rachel and Mike. They treated Fluffy like their own, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend them for anyone who wants the best for their furry family members!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors, and tailor my approach to each pet’s needs. I’m patient, reliable, and experienced with basic training, medication routines, and providing comfort to anxious pups. Your dog will be treated like family! I currently work 15 days out of the month and can check in on your pets whenever it is needed! I usually know what my work schedule is going to be for the whole month in advance. In my home, pets are treated like family—with plenty of love, attention, and a safe, clean environment. I follow their usual routines to keep them comfortable and happy. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and stick to the pet’s normal schedule for feeding, playtime, and walks. Whether it's giving belly rubs, refreshing water bowls, or sending daily updates, I make sure each pet feels secure and cared for.

“The yard is gorgeous, large, fenced in, and the perfect spot for a doggie vaca. Dawn was relaxed and super accommodating of our unstructured schedule for pickup/dropoff. She even spent 3 hours brushing out the burs Joanna managed to find rather than leaving it for us to deal with after our trip. Jo came home super tired after playing with the dogs outside all day long, which is how we love her best :) Above and beyond!”

“Outstanding pet care. She treats your furry companion as her own dogs. I will not hesitate to use her pet care services again. I will never use a kennel again. My dog was very happy in her house and care.”

“Couldn’t have asked for a better experience for my first time using Rover. Michelle and her family were so kind and I can tell My dog enjoyed her stay. Looking forward to hiring Michelle again in the future.”

“I had a last minute travel plans and Leo was able to watch Scottie for me. He supplied pictures of Scottie’s stay that made me comfortable about leaving Scottie with a stranger. Leo has a great setup for the dogs. Would recommend he service to others.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Dana. We were hesitant to leave our new puppy with anyone, but based off her reviews we felt reasonably comfortable with her. After meeting her, and her dogs, the worries dissolved. She genuinely cares and enjoys her time with the animals. She kept in contact and sent us several updates and photos of Mila. It really helped alleviate the anxiety over leaving her with someone new. We had an overall great experience with Dana and definitely recommend her to anyone. We will be booking her again when we need to board her.”

About: I have founded and led Abbey’s Canine Academy for over 5 years. We specialize in Board and Train scenarios and are trained and able to handle all kinds of pets from puppies to seniors. We have specialized equipment and experience to make sure your pet stays safe and fulfilled. As a full time dog trainer, I am home with the dogs every day, for all hours unless I need to run errands. Each dog has free time in the house, yard time, exercise time, play time, and even scheduled training time if you desire! I have two dogs that are very well trained in the home. If your pup wants to play, then they can play, but if they do best separate, then my home is equipped to keep them separate during the day and at night for sleeping.

About: I have had dogs my entire life! Dogs in my care will enjoy my large fenced in yard with my 2 fur babies who love making new friends. Your dog will enjoy plenty of supervised outdoor time involving fetch, frisbees and sniffing. My fur babies are high energy, however they get plenty of daily exercise that requires lots of napping and snuggles. This makes my home compatible with high energy dogs or senior dogs.

“I was very nervous leaving my boy since he’s never been away from home, but Abigail made me feel very comfortable and I knew he would be in good hands. She’s very qualified and knowledgeable about dogs. She kept me updated on how he was doing and sent me photos often. We will definitely be using Abigail in the future.”
