Dog Boarding in McHenry

Danielle took such good care of my little bug! He was super nervous after I left, but Danielle took him for a nice walk to get the jitters out and let him cuddle her and her kids (and even sent me pictures of him laying across their arms while on their laptop) and he immediately warmed up. I was so grateful she came through for me for a last minute booking. Will absolutely be bringing Archie to her again!

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!

They did a great job caring for our pup. Great communication with lots of picture updates :)

Carla was amazing with Scifi! He enjoyed playing in her huge fenced in backyard. Carla took great care of him and made sure his medication was given on time every single day. She sent us frequent updates, pictures and videos that helped us so much! We will definitely be back with Scifi!

Stella took such good care of our pups. Our smaller dog is scared of thunderstorms and she made sure to give him medication and comfort him. She was great about providing updates and sending pictures.

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.

Melody was amazing! She took great care of my dog Sophie while I was out of town. She was very active with my dog and took plenty of pictures to show me how much fun they had I will definitely be using her again!

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!

Carolyn was amazing with my spoiled dogs who have separation anxiety. I felt like she loved them as her own. I loved all the walks and all the pictures she sent. I was able to rest assured they were being loved while I was gone

June and Wade took very good care of Ziggy, I really appreciate the constant updates and the pictures , it was very nice to be able to leave Ziggy and not have to worry

Angela was awesome with my dog! She watched him for three days and every day she kept in touch by sending pictures and videos. She took care of him as if he were one of her own! We appreciate Angela and her family!

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.

Kim was awesome. Maddie got a lot of love during her stay. She was even invited to sleep in bed with her. We also loved all the pictures and updates while we were away. We will definitely use Kim again

Jill was amazing with Delilah. She’s 10 and this was the first time I’ve ever left her with anyone. Jill texted me with updates and pictures all the time. I was nervous at first but felt so comfortable with her being there. Would definitely take Delilah back again.
