Dog Boarding in Lyons

Our beloved Silky Terrier Buster stayed with Alara for 2 weeks recently . He was given the red carpet treatment from beginning to end . Alara gave him lots of one on one time even with her brood of 3 small fur babies . He loved being with the other dogs . The fact that he was bigger [18lbs.] than the other dogs made him feel like the big shot of the group . When we picked him up from his 2 week stay he was happy and mellow as if to say ,I had a great time here ! Alara went above and beyond to take care of him both physically and emotionally .

Ellen was able to accommodate a late booking and my dog.Apollo was very well cared for. I received daily updates and pictures and he was very happy. Ellen is very flexible with time schedules and super accommodating. I would highly recommend.

Kimberly took great care of Max! It was his first time being away from me overnight. She took him for ice cream, sent pictures and let him sleep next to her. I would book Kimberly again to care for Max in a heartbeat.

Pam is the kindest person you will ever meet. When I first spoke on the phone with her I instantly knew I could trust her. She explained to me that her daughter has a dog that is also a handful to deal with so I knew she would be able to handle my dog Duke. My dog is very leash reactive to any animal, barks at people (sometimes) barks out the window etc etc and this was no problem for Pam and David (Pam’s husband). All in all Pam gave me multiple updates throughout the day with pictures, videos and a summary of what was done that day so I never felt anxious. I live an hour and 15 minutes away and they have watched my dog twice. The drive is 100% worth it every single time and she’s always going to be my go to. Alsoooo there was a big thunderstorm in the area and they took me in because it was too dangerous to drive back after going there to pick up Duke from his stay. These people are just good, kind people and I’m so happy to have met them.

Adirondack and Ozark had a blast staying with Sara and her family! Sara is so sweet and friendly and has a huge yard for the dogs to run and play in. We would book with her again in a heartbeat.

My dog, Ginger, had a great time at Mary's house while we were away. I would definitely use her again.

Sam was awesome! I had to go out of town for the weekend and Sam looked after my 11month old puppy. We met before hand to introduce her to the dog and she was great about it, she picked him up and returned him on time. Sent me updates during his stay and he was so happy when he came back. I would definitely leave my dog with Sam again if I need to.

Ellie had a great time at Amy’s! She got lots of exercise and loved going swimming!

My dog's stay with Jeffery was fantastic. He communicated very well before and during the stay. Drop off and pick up were quick and easy and we received updates with photos throughout the stay. The dogs have plenty of outdoor and indoor space to run around and have fun. I would absolutely send my dog back.

Our tripod boy was well looked after and pampered. Kayla really spoiled him and she was very communicative throughout his stay. Highly recommend Kayla — and we’ll definitely come back!

Kathy and Brian were awesome and I could tell our pups were well taken care of. They sent pics of the dogs every few days to keep us updated which was appreciated! We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again!

Crystal was patient with my questions. She loved Ollie like her own while we were gone. The photos and response to my texts helped me to rest easy knowing he was doing okay. We will definitely use Crystal again.

Marie is awesome with our little Chica! She is very devoted to the care and attention she gives her. She treats her dog as it was her own. We get daily updates and photos when in her care. Marie is the best!

I didn’t t worry at all about Alfie while I was away. I had plenty of pictures and updates showing he was having a great time. Thank you so much! It was such a relief!

This is the second time that Otis has stayed with them and he loves it. I’m so happy with how well Nikki and Noah took care of my dog and much fun he had while I was away

Amy was excellent and took great care of my dog. She’s attentive to all of her dogs individual needs. I will definitely be using her to board my dog from here on out. Thanks again!

Marylou is fantastic!!! My usual dog sitter was unavailable for an upcoming trip out of town, and I needed to find someone new a few days before we left. Marylou was incredibly accommodating and didn’t blink at my dog’s size (he is 120lbs)! She sent pictures and updates everyday we were gone, and even got him comfortable with her cats. Will absolutely use her again!

Rosie’s retreat was a wonderful place!! Our young Border Collie was given lots of love and playtime. There was a large, completely fenced-in space in the backyard and Dianna was terrific. We were confident our puppy would be safe and well cared for. Communication was amazing and we received pictures, videos and updates daily. We would definitely board our puppy here again! Highly recommend!!

Ferguson’s first sleep away and he was spoiled by Lourdes and her whole family. I received photos throughout the stay. Lourdes is very sweet and wanted me and Ferguson to be ok. It worked. Thank you!
