Pet boarding/training in Chicago

“We take our 8 month old puppy, Rocky, here for boarding and love it so much! You can tell they love all their dogs and take such good care of them. They do so many fun additional activities for the puppies (like pool days and splash pads on the warm days) & post so many pictures and updates of your pup. Rocky gets so excited when we drop him off-we travel a lot so it’s so nice knowing he is in good hands here :)“

“We had a wonderful board and train experience with Ty and the trainer Kyle. Could not be happier.

Ty is warm and extremely knowledgeable. He has a passion for his work and it shows. Kyle sent us regular updates on our dogs progress. It is obvious that a lot of time went into her care.

We feel lucky to have found Bow Wow and look forward to using them in the future.“

“Can’t say enough good things about Pupstars! We’ve been taking our dog here for daycare and boarding since she was a puppy and she absolutely loves it here. The staff are all incredible and know every dog by name, they’re reasonably priced for the area, and there’s ample street parking in front of their location so drop offs are easy.“

“I’ve been taking my dog to Dog Hotel for 4 years now, and I can’t recommend this place more! This is the 3rd dog daycare I’ve tried in the city, and it’s the only one I trust. The staff here genuinely cares about your dog!

I not only take my dog here for daycare, but I also groom and board her here. The team is trustworthy and one of the only places in the city that has staff on site overnight. I learned many places have no one present for several hours at night! At Dog Hotel there is someone present 24/7.

The daycare hours at Dog are the best, and I won’t be taking my pup anywhere else!“

“They take great care of our dog Uno when he needs boarding. Great communication and we love the daily report cards!! The staff is so sweet and kind to our anxious pup“

“I can’t recommend this place enough! My dog was always so excited to see Sean pick him up in the morning and always so tired when he got home.“

“Extremely friendly staff with great communication! Always takes care of my pup, wouldn’t go elsewhere“

“I am the proud owner of a mommy addicted pit bull. Won't leave my side, that is until Jesse shows up to take him to boarding. He leaves with Jesse and doesn't look back. Does that bother me? A little but I realize he must really love being with Jesse and Elizabeth. He is a people loving dog but not so much a dog loving dog. Leaving him with Canine Perspective gives me such peace of mind. I know he will not get into trouble with other dogs. He is not excluded. He is given tread mill time with the other dogs while being in a controlled situation. He is well taken care of when he boards with Canine Perspective. My favorite thing to say is when he is boarding I can go away and not think about him - in other words no worrying. Yes, I still think of him but all good thoughts. Thank you, Canine Perspective Team for a job always well done.“

“Dr Harris and her staff are not only professional but also KIND. Best vet appointment I’ve had in my life and my doggy agrees.“

“Absolutely amazing experience every time! My pet always comes back looking and smelling incredible, and you can truly tell how much care and love goes into their work. The team is patient, professional, and so attentive to detail. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my baby is in such good hands. Thank you for always making the experience so easy and comfortable highly recommend to anyone looking for a groomer they can truly trust!“

“I brought my 2 kittens in for their semi-annual exam. Dr. Schell is great. He answers all questions and is so gentle when examining them. The vet technicians and staff are pleasant and friendly. Very welcoming environment.“

“Hyde Park location ROCKS!!! Demetrius did an excellent job cutting Olivia!!! They were great to accommodate her being the first and only groom first thing in the morning. Olivia has a hard time with other dogs, so that was important to me, that they did that.“

“I have a small, very shy dog with some anxiety. She is suspicious of most people (she only tolerates my husband but loves the company of dogs). She adores the staff at Earth Pups and even wags her tail when she’s there for just a grooming.“

“Appreciated the ability to get an urgent care appointment the same day. All the staff are very kind. The vets offered alternatives options for diagnostics and treatment and gave me the time I needed to make decisions on how to progress. I really like that they listened to my concerns and addressed them. Thanks Team at GoodVets!“

“We just completed the Circus Dog class. It was phenomenal. Our sheltie learned a number of new tricks. Jared is a phenomenal instructor. He paced the class to ensure everyone had the support they needed. His individual coaching was always helpful in moving us in the right direction and strengthening how we trained our dog.“

“Hasani is more than your average dog trainer. He has an expert-level understanding of canine behavioral shaping and modification strategies. Virgil, our 11-month-old Doberman Pinscher, completed the 3 week board and train program. He was already a good boy, but still had some annoying puppy behaviors and needed more obedience in general, as he could be quite willful at times.When Virgil returned from the board and train, his behavior was vastly improved, and many of his annoying behaviors were virtually eliminated. He also acquired many new skills and commands that make it easier to manage him in any situation, and help him to better regulate fears and anxieties so that he is a more calm and confident dog.Hasani took a lot of time to really educate on how to interact with Virgil for the best results. I learned a lot about proper leash-handling, behavioral redirection, and productive play that I never would have considered, and haven’t heard from any other trainer or class. This continues into the generous follow-up sessions that he provides.We wanted Virgil to be the sort of dog that can be taken to public spaces, social gatherings, and on trips. Hasani certainly delivered on this. I would say that the program works for more than just dogs with problem behaviors, and is a great investment in providing the best quality of life for you and your dog. Hasani is patient, knowledgeable, and clearly brings a high level of integrity into his work.“

“There was one time that Higgins upset me but it was more my reaction than them. Other than that, they were perfect. I have lived in 8 states, even more cities, and taken my dogs to many, many vets and let me tell you, I miss Higgins more than you can imagine. If they were in Las Vegas, I would go to them for everything.“

“Amazing staff and super reliable care. I used them for 5 years before moving from the area. They provided great care and communication while watching my dog for daily walks and were able to accommodate last minute requests as well. Very lovely walkers who wrote the cutest reports after each walk.“

“Been taking my baby for a couple of
Months now and i feel
Extremely safe knowing his there getting take care of by these amazing people never had a problem“

“I’m here to say you’ll never find anyone who cares more for your dog than Molly and her crew at WW. They are beyond kind, loving, and helpful. When my guy Snoopy is acting “off” or sick, Molly is always there with advice or just a helping hand. They’ve come through for me in so many emergencies over the years. All the employees (many have been there for years) are kind, dedicated, and professional. Snoopy is not super social, but he’s always excited when we pull up! I switched jobs and WW is completely out of the way for me, but I’ll never stop going there. I can’t recommend them enough!
AND their Insta is hilarious. They have birthday/holiday parties that are so cute and funny. I swear the dogs have a blast!“

“The training program is 10/10. My dog was reactive and it was becoming a huge issue. Since she completed her training she is a different dog. Worth every penny and time spent.“

“I have been going to Delta with my dog for nine years. Doctor Leslie and her staff are very cordial, professional and helpful. The level of care is consistently good.“

“We absolutely love this dog daycare! The staff is truly wonderful and consistently provides excellent care, attention, and stimulation for the dogs. My dog, Olive, has been going here for the past 4 years, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Her behavior has improved so much over time, and she’s made so many dog friends—it’s clear how positive and enriching the environment is.

One of the biggest perks is the complimentary bus transportation to and from daycare right to our house, which makes everything incredibly convenient. Olive also gets groomed here once a month, and they always do an amazing job—she comes home looking and feeling great every time.

I have complete peace of mind knowing Olive is in such caring, professional hands. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and exceptional dog daycare!“

“I’m a regular at Petco. Everything from Vetco on Sundays to grooming every six weeks with Jesse the groomer who is phenomenal with my three Pomeranians, I’m always at Petco. The majority of the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. they are always willing to take time out to inform me of various products and services. There is even willing to listen to my animal stories. They genuinely seem to enjoy their jobs.“
