Dog Boarding in Johnsburg

My 8.5 year old English Bulldog suffers from anxiety and has some special daily routine and care needs that make it difficult for me to leave her with others outside of family. Thanks to Rover, I found Debbie and her entire family who just knew how to care for my fur baby. All the glowing reviews here are true — Daisy stayed with them for 8 nights and my own anxieties of leaving her for my work travel melted away from our meet and greet alone. Debbie and her family are genuinely warm, detail oriented, reassuring and follow through daily with photo and text updates on how Daisy was doing. They even introduced Daisy to their friendly cat, Loki, who also seems to have magical powers over Daisy. I have never seen her get along so well with another pet and there was she was befriending someone who seems to have mellowed her anxious ways down. It’s been a few days now since I’ve had Daisy back and the change in her is amazing. She has mellowed out tremendously that I don’t even have to give her cbd oil nor treats anymore to help calm her down. She now has a calm demeanor to her! I swear, Debbie and her family are like dog whisperers! Thank you, Debbie, and your family for loving on and caring for Daisy. You are a healer. She will be back for sure!

This review is sent with the deepest gratitude. Words truly can’t express how thankful I am for Danielle. She was absolutely amazing with my babies and treated them as if they were her own. From the moment I left, I felt complete peace knowing they were in loving, capable hands. Not only was Danielle attentive and patient, but she went above and beyond while babysitting my dogs—making sure they were comfortable, well cared for, and showered with affection. It’s rare to find someone you trust completely with your fur babies, and she exceeded every expectation. I am beyond grateful for her kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for exceptional care.

Alicia did a wonderful job again with Barkley! She takes him for walks and plays with him like he’s a part of the family. Great dog sitter for your furbaby 🥰 Thank you so much for taking such good care of him!

Norma is fantastic!!! This was our first time using Rover.com - (found it by doing a Google search just days before our scheduled trip when all of our other dogsitters fell through! Yikes!) - and we couldn't have been more surprised by how easy it was to use. Norma responded to our request right away, and even offered to let us bring our dog, Russell, over to meet hers before the trip. She has a very friendly lab who loves to play with other dogs, and Russell couldn't have been happier. Norma was very accommodating, and her love for dogs was immediately apparent. While we were on our trip, she took the time to send us little messages and pictures of Russell playing with hers, and we loved being able to see how he was doing. Norma has a very gentle, laid-back demeanor, and there was not one minute that we felt nervous to have our dog in her care. When we came to pick him up, he was excited to see us, but didn't want to leave. We feel so lucky to have found Norma! From now on, she'll be our go-to sitter! Highly recommend!!!

Melody took great care of our puppy. Remi is highly energetic. Melody did a great job taking her on regular walks through trails and paying special attention to our girl.

Deanne was a new sitter for us. We did a meet and greet to make sure Taisho was a good fit, which he was. This was a two-night stay, and Deanne was super flexible about drop-off and pickup times. She sent pictures and updates throughout his stay, which I really appreciated. He doesn't really interact with other dogs, preferring to just snuggle with people, but he got along well with the other dogs and loved playing in the new snow. He fell asleep on the way home - always a good sign! Deanne was great - we've already booked her for another stay!

Stella was so great with my Buddy that he was her favorite pal while I was gone! She was patient my dog and his separation anxiety! She sent updates and made me feel comfortable with his stay! I recommend her for anyone looking for dog boarding/sitting!

Kelsey is amazing with our Pug. Daily walks, photos daily, and provides a warm and safe space for our dog. Very responsive and just the best!

Angela took care of our puppy, Bandit, for almost a month!! She updated me even when I forgot to check in and I had no doubts leaving my little buddy with her! She even helped with potty training :) I will definitely be bringing Bandit back!

Megan was awesome! With regular updates and pictures I was always in the know about my fur baby. The initial meeting to determine fit went very well, I instantly developed a strong trust in Megan and knew Mac was in a safe place where he'd have fun and be taken care of. He had a blast and will be back! Thank you Megan, Maisie, Maya and Madden.

This is my second time having Annie take care of Beaver, and she’s amazing as always! She keeps me updated with pictures, and Beaver gets along so well with her two dogs, he always looks so happy and full of energy when he’s with them. I’ll definitely book with her again highly recommend!

My dogs came back tired and happy after their stay with Carisa and Hazel! She was extremely accommodating of my flight schedule and I can tell the puppies enjoyed their stay!

We couldn’t have been more relaxed knowing that Kim was taking great care of Penny. Kim sent updates and pictures often. Penny looked right at home. Kim accommodated Pennys love of sitting up high. Kim cleared off her bay window so that Penny could sit or lay and watch the squirrels and neighbors. I would highly recommend Kim to care for your pets❤️

Maureen was great and truly loves animals! She was very responsive and our puppy was in great hands with her and her boys (two lovely golden retrievers). We would highly recommend her and look forward to using her services again soon.

June ALWAYS takes such great care of our pups. She sends daily updates including pictures and they always come back very happy and relaxed! I feel like she treats them as part of her family. Highly recommend June:)

Jacob was amazing with our pup and such a great communicator! We loved getting our daily update and pictures.. Basil really misses Murphy and Jacob!! Highly recommend Jacob and will definitely be contacting him again to watch our pup..

Benni stayed with Elena while we were in Wisconsin. The minute we walked in for the meet and greet, Elena greeted us warmly with her toddler son. My mind was set at ease knowing this would and will be a great place for Benni to stay. Elena kept me updated with texts, pictures and even a video. Benni was definitely spoiled with all the love and care! I feel so Blessed to have found Elena and her son! We already booked Benni again and adding another one in the near future! Don’t hesitate to use Elena! Your dog will come home content and tired!
