Doggy Day Care in Winnebago

“We had a busy day today and Jennifer was more than gracious to keep the pups all day. She picked up at 530 and we didn’t make it home for her to drop them off until 7pm! She was amazing to keep them taken care of all day. My Stella’s anxiety is getting better everyday that’s she goes there and sees how wonderful It is to be there with her which is fantastic. We could Not ask for anything more!!”

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 is the best! My boy loves going to visit and is always well loved!”

“My dogs received excellent care I feel so much better now with the upcoming overnight stay due to my daughters wedding. Much more comfortable! Certain they will be just fine.”

“Jaqueline and her daughter Bella were AWESOME!! Our puppy, who is 11 months old, has never stayed with anyone else before. Not only was she nervous, we were too! We didn’t know how she would react to NEW PEOPLE, and a new doggie friend. Jaqueline sent me tons of pictures, even a video of my dog having fun in her backyard, with her dog! She reassured me of how well my puppy was at adjusting to a new environment. I trust her 100% , along with her loving daughter Bella! They did whatever they could think of, to make her less nervous and anxious!! I look forward to more dates in the future.”

“Claudette was very friendly and has a one doggie at a time accommodation. Love the area they are in! Would definitely comeback for more doggie sitting! 5 stars!”

“Hanna saved me in a sticky situation where I needed to board my dog unexpectedly. She was able to alleviate my worries about my fur baby being cared for while I was out of the country and I can’t thank her enough!”

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.

“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”

About: I’ve been a dog owner for 8 years to a hairless miniature pincher named Otis! We have just added three new cats to the family Ollie, Pepper, and Buster. Over the years I’ve helped friends and family by watching their dogs ranging from toy to large breed. I look forward to meeting your pup very soon! I currently work from home a majority of the time giving me the opportunity to be hands on with your dog and available for play and potty breaks. If I do need to go to the office it is located in Rockford and typically those are quick trips in and out! If at my house I have my dog Otis and kitties Ollie, Pepper, and Buster to keep your dog company and plenty of beds to lay around on. I live very close to a nice park with a great walking trail. At your home I will be very respectful of your house as well as your dog’s needs and routine!

About: I am the second oldest of 8 kids and I have taken care of pets and kids ever since I was little. I love cats and dogs and get along well with many breeds but prefer small dogs because of strength and we have a huge yard but it’s not fenced in. I am currently available 24/7 and just have small increments of time I would be gone for a doctors appointment occasionally so I can take the dog out often. We keep them well fed and hydrated and cuddle for cats and dog and for the dog we also let him out on the long chain or my son takes him from a walk because he is a larger breed.

“Our Teddy made good friends with Brynn and her family! He had fun snacks and took a nice long nap when he came home so I know he must have had a good play day! I would leave teddy with Brynn again, absolutely!.”

About: I currently have two small dogs who I take care of full time. I’ve had them for 2 years now. I love playing with dogs, rubbing their tummy, or just hanging out with them. If your dog has separation anxiety that will not be a problem. One of my dogs is the same way and I wouldn’t mind being there full time for your dog. Pet care fits into my schedule perfectly because most of my days consist of being home taking care of my two small dogs. I’m also a nursing student so it helps that I have a lot of time after studying to play with the dogs/puppies. I have a fenced yard. It is pretty big. In order to keep my dogs safe I always make sure doors are closed before letting them out and as a special precaution I like to add an AirTag to their collars in case anything happens (has not happened yet but it’s better to be safe than sorry).

About: I've had dogs all my life and also fostered 11 dogs thru Good Shepherds Rescue. (if I could have, would have adopted all 11) Currently I have no pets so I am available to give 100% of my attention to your furbaby(s) 😊 I'm currently working full time during the week. I am available after 5pm - till 10 pm, Monday thru Friday and all day*** Saturday and Sunday-June 5th thru August 4th off, will be available 24/7***- just give me a call!! I look forward to meeting you. ( If you live close to WINDSOR AND ALPINE I would be available all week) *Note: no walks off property when we have ice/snow, sorry. I will come to your place to meet you and your furbaby, get all details as to what the daily routine is and follow that plus lots of love and snuggles. I have paid for and received a 3rd party background check.

About: Get ready for your dog to be spoiled! I am the owner of a 7 acre mini Farm home! Your dogs will absolutely love it here! There are lots of trees around and beautiful grass for them to run around in here. I have always been a natural when it comes to pets, but specifically I love dogs, especially really big dogs! I have had dogs my entire life and I now have a small Shepherd Lab mix at home. I make it a priority to make sure that your dogs are well taken care of, well fed, have lots of fun, and get lots of exercise! So it's more than just a regular boarding/walking experience. Also I am a bit of a photographer so plan on getting lots of beautiful pictures of your dog on the farm from me during their visit. I also have two older daughters who are absolute animal lovers and will play and pet your pups consistently while they are here. I am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets, I an usually always home unless I am on a call for thr fire station. My land is not fully fenced off so If need be I will have to walk pups on a leash which is not a problem at all.
