Dog Boarding near Chicago, IL

We are a family of SIX plus Emma who completes us. I’ve had Emma her whole life. She’s about to be 16! She is older so doesn’t play much, her eye sight is going and her hips are getting sore but she’s still so strong and happy!

Hi! I am a PhD student and mother of a beautiful baby girl and 2 siberian huskies. We live in Avondale, Chicago with my husband and brother. We love going for walks around the neighborhood together, cooking, writing and reading. We also love nature and camping. Our dogs are 7 and 9 years old. Diamond has been with me since 3 months old, and Keelo was adopted. We took him in when his owner had to go live in an assisted living facility. They are good friends! Diamond is amazing with other dogs and is very chill overall. Keelo is good with other dogs though can be a bit nervous at first. Keelo can be protective of toys if other dogs try to take them (Diamond is very guilty of this), so we always supervise him with toys, or just keep toys away aside from when we are playing. Keelo loves saying hello when you get home from wherever you went off to. Diamond, on the other hand, is surprisingly extremely quiet. They enjoy their walks and food. They are both great with kids and any other people.

We found Chewie during COVID and he has been with our family since June 2020. I currently work from home and Chewie and I have been mostly with each other for majority of the day. He's not super social and only has a few friends he gets along with but he hasn't been to exposed to alot of other dogs and does have anxiety. My goal is to socialize him more with other dogs.

We are an active family that enjoys being outdoors. Our dogs are a big part of our lives, and we rarely travel without them unless its unavoidable.

Our family has 4 humans including two kids (7 and 9) and one awesome doggie, Daisy! Daisy is a very sweet girl who gets along well with other dogs and people. She can be a bit jumpy when she gets excited but is never mean or aggressive. She does not chew on anything, rarely has any accidents (only if she’s sick) and is well behaved. We do let her on furniture but will get off when told.

(Will fill this in later)

Helga is full of personality and makes everyone laugh. My husband, Helga and our cat Sal moved to Chicago from California about a year ago. We just bought a townhome in Logan Square and will be moving in early November. We don’t need a sitter right away, but would love to watch your dog and maybe one day soon you can return the favor!

Hi there!

Hi, I'm Daryl and my son(dog) Harley. We live in a townhouse in a quiet tree lined neighborhood. We love spending time together, especially going for walks by the beach or in the park. Harley is always full of energy and loves meeting new friendly friends along the way.

I am a management professional who loves dogs and mostly works from home. My job takes me on the road that requires overnight travel. I also like to travel for vacation. Bodi is a 3 year old English cream retriever. He is afraid of little dogs for some reason as I think my neighbors dog traumatized him when he was a younger so he tends to shy away from small dogs. He prefers females, and bc he’s a male, initially with some male dogs he may play the dominance game. I watch that closely however. He is very friendly and loves to play with medium to dogs his size. So I am open to connecting with other pet owners with medium to large dogs. I have a cat who is very tolerant of dogs. I live in a walk up so I often walk my dog. My yard is fenced in, but not conducive to running around in so all the exercise comes from me which I don’t mind and one of the reasons I got a dog. I am excited to get to know other pet owners! Bodi loves people probably more that he does other dogs so he will be very loving to the humans.

Hello! Nala is still a puppy and is eager for playdates in the backyard! She's sweet and loves to hang with other dogs. Still a bit of a remote control and cord chewing so some supervision is key!

Hello! My husband Dan and I are from the north suburbs and we live in Roscoe Village in our dog Hector’s house. We love to travel and you’ll often find us out and about in Roscoe watching sports with friends or taking Hector to the park!

Hello, I’m Argos! A 5 year old mostly black border collie mix that my parents rescued from a shelter in Mississippi where my mommy’s from. They also rescued my biological sister, Belle, but she can write her own entry. Everyone says she’s the smart one and I’m the doofus. That’s even what my humans call me sometimes ‘The Doof’ because I’m so silly and handsome! I love most all humans and will sometimes stick my nose in their bag looking for treats when I meet them on the street. I like to have a lot of love and attention. And I LOVE the water as you can tell from my photos. Other than that and some medicine you have to put on my food I’m an easy going guy! Unless you’re a bicycle or a scooter or a jogger then I have a baked in need to herd you. I am mostly Border Collie after all!

We are in the Ravenswood Manor neighborhood. We have two girls ages 6 & 7 and our Golden doodle, Haven. We spend a lot of time at Horner Park and try to take our pup with us as much as we can! We would love to do a boarding exchange. We hosted on Rover for several years before we had children and had many great experiences dog sitting.

He is a great family dog. No barking. No shedding. He sleeps all day but would love a friend to keep him company and play with.

Hi there! This is Petunia. She is almost one year old. She loves to chase squirrels and loves ALL people and dogs. Looking for some puppy play dates.

I work both in and out of the home and would love for my dog to have some fun play dates. Ralphie can be shy and timid at first when meeting new people and dogs. But, after he has the space and opportunity to check things out for himself he warms up and is ready to cuddle or play.

Hi! Alex and I live in Lincoln Park with our “mini” bernedoodle Sunny. He’s about 55 pounds and loves to play with other dogs. He goes to daycare 2x a week at Active Dog Chicago.
