Dog Boarding in Fox Lake

Megan was great! Updated with pictures and videos, and I was told at pick up Sir acted like he didnt want to leave, which shows how much he enjoyed himself there as well.

Jill was the absolute best. She took such good care of our babies, and made our vacation stress free because I knew they were in such good hands. My husband and I are really good judge of characters and there was no hesitation with Jill. She radiates so much love. Our babies came back so relaxed and we could tell there was only love in her home. We have definitely found the best sitter and will be rebooking.

We had an excellent experience working with Rusty! He was very professional. We did an j trial meeting with the dogs. He kept in contact with me over the weekend stay. We highly recommend him for watching your dog. Thank you, Rusty!

Melody was great! She took care of our pet Pomeranian for the weekend and our dog was very happy and comfortable staying with her. We met once a couple months before the booking and when we dropped her off our dog remembered being there and ran up the sidewalk before greeting Melody. Melody sent daily photos and updates while we were gone, which was really nice. It was a great arrangement since our dog does not do well with other dogs, and Melody did not have any of her own pets, so our dog got lots of attention. We would highly recommend and definitely will book with Melody again in the future.

We had an excellent experience with Dickson as a dog sitter for Pollux, our Briard, during an 11-day stay. From the start, Dickson’s calm and steady demeanor was a great fit for Pollux, helping him feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Beyond the regular responsibilities, Dickson went above and beyond by working with Pollux on a couple of dog commands and taking extra care with his grooming beyond the basic requirements. It was clear that he paid close attention to Pollux’s needs and made sure he stayed healthy, engaged, and happy throughout his stay. Dickson’s home is also very well suited for larger dogs, with an appropriate setup and a fenced garden that gave Pollux space to enjoy himself safely. We especially appreciated the regular updates, including pictures and videos of Pollux’s activities, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Communication with Dickson was straightforward and thoughtful. He kept us informed, asked questions when needed, and made us feel like true partners in Pollux’s care. We are very grateful for the attention and dedication he showed, and we would confidently recommend Dickson to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and capable dog sitter. We would not hesitate to book with Dickson again and highly recommend him to any family looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely committed to their dog’s well-being.

Amazing experience! This was the first time our anxious dog stayed anywhere other than family. Byron took such good care of him and sent along updates, which helped relieved our stress. Our dog had so much fun that he seemed a bit depressed when he got home... Thank you Byron for taking such amazing care of Gunnar!

This was my first time leaving both dogs with a stranger for a two week period. Tony gave good care and a good price. Tony has three little girls who gave my girls the extra love they enjoy. He sent photos and communicated every day. He is compassionate and kind. I would use him again.

My two cats had a great time staying at Melissa’s house with her husband for the day! They got their own room, were cared for just as I would have and they were extremely nice and pleasant to be around! 100% highly recommended for anyone looking for an animal sitter! Thank you so much to the both of you!

Will definitely rebook

Deidre is friendly and easy to work with. She cares about our dog’s happiness and well being. She does a great job with Rizzo. I know he is in a good safe environment at Deidre’s. Thanks!

Truly what a wonderful sitter. I booked last minute, and fortunately was able to have Monica watch my dog, Gracie. Gracie is old and nervous, so I was also a bit nervous giving her to a stranger with two dogs already. However, all of my worries passed when Monica would send me pictures and videos of my baby having such a good time. Monica made sure Gracie was fed, walked, cuddled, and loved. I picked up my dog happier than ever. Thank you so much!!

Lorena did an excellent job taking care of Daphne. She went above and beyond handling our finicky eater who also takes daily meds. She even brushed her! We received regular updates and Lorena was very flexible about scheduling at the last minute and then adjusting that schedule because our schedule changed. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Lorena again!

We have now used Maureen to watch our 2 dogs on 2 different occasions. I have felt very comfortable each time. Mo is very kind and personable, and loves her job. I can also really appreciate her flexibility, when needed. Our pups really do enjoy going and I personally like that there are other dogs for my 2, to play with. My younger 1.5 y/o dog (especially), comes home so very exhausted, it’s cute. But, I feel like they get plenty of attention, outside time, love, and socialization with other dogs. It’s an all around positive experience. So glad I found someone when I was looking in a new area. Thanks, Maureen!
