Pet Boarding Training near Darien

“My bloodhound, Hank, Has been coming to the Dog District since he was a small puppy and he is now 5 years old - never once have I been disappointed in their level of care. Hank has also been boarded there when I have been out of town many time and they never fail to put my nerves at ease and I know he is always in the best of hands! I will never stop recommending to friends and family! Thanks for all the years of love so far for my boy Hank ??“

“Dr Gil and Char make a great team. They were able to squeeze me in on a Saturday morning. Char was great over the phone and warm and welcoming once we arrived. Dr Gil took the time to address all concerns and explained everything he was doing. Highly recommended. Your fur baby will be in great hands.“

“Hey I just wanted to shout out Animal Hospital of Western Springs. They SAVED my cat. He ate something he shouldn’t have and it was stuck in his intestines, he threw up like 6 times in 10 hours and by the next morning he was lethargic and not wanting to leave his house. I called my regular vet because that’s where I take all of my pets and they couldn’t see him. In all the years I’ve had my pets I’ve had three emergencies and their regular vet would never be able to see them (even though they take emergency visits?) they are always booked up. The first time I had an emergency (my dog chipped his tooth) they referred me to the animal hospital of western springs. It was 20 minutes away from house so I took my dog there. The next two times they referred me to an emergency vet hospital in Chicago. I remembered Western Springs and called and they took them in the same day.

They saw my cat within the hour, they talked me through everything. They showed me his X-rays, the lab work. They gave me all of my options and they talked me through all of them. What would have cost me about thousands and thousands at an emergency vet hospital cost me half at Western Springs. Dr. Ernesto Perez literally saved my cats life, he made sure to call me right after the surgery to give me updates, the hospital sent me pictures of what was going on when they did the surgery, and they saved the object he swallowed so I could see it. I picked my cat up after two nights and they were always willing to answer my questions. If I had concerns I would give them a call and they always reassured me. He just got his stitches out today and he is doing so much better. The staff is super friendly and they treated me and my pets with so much kindness.

If you didn’t read all of this (understandable?) just know this, Animal Hospital of Western Springs saved my cat’s life and has always been there for me when I have pet emergencies. They are affordable and the staff is friendly and kind and the Dr. Perez does amazing work. It’s 20-25 minutes from my house but that drive is worth it to get my pets seen by this place.

Dr. Perez, and everyone there at Western Springs, thank you for saving my Michi.“

“Aaron is such a gifted teacher! Our dog was extremely well-behaved and learned so many new things from our session with her. He described everything down to a tee and explained how we can practice at home with consistent reinforcement. Stayyy's services are highly recommended!!“

“My experience with Downer's Grove Animal Hospital was very pleasant. I needed a USDA health certificate to travel with my dog and they were very efficient in getting it done quickly.

Tammy answered all of my questions and prepared everything needed for my dog's health certificate. Dr. Graham did an exam on my dog and had a very kind demeanor throughout our appointment which is always appreciated.

I travel very often with my dog and even still, there's a lot of really confusing information on the web about what's required for specific countries when traveling with a pet (and that can get stressful quick) but Downers Grove Animal Hospital made sure I had all of the information I needed and I ended up getting the health certificate back the same day, which was a relief. Results may vary as the hospital isn't responsible for when the USDA processes the health certificate but I would highly recommend this animal hospital for their overall efficiency and thoroughness.

Thank you again. I truly appreciate your help!“

“Great company, nice facility, owner/trainer knowledgeable & eager to teach you & your dog. Highly Recommend!!“

“Our dog Zoey has loved being boarded with K-9. Staff are super caring of the dogs and great at communicating any needs or changes. This past summer they were the ones that spotted a change in Zoey’s toileting habits she hadn’t shown at home and because of that we were able to get her to the vet and on medication. I also appreciate how much consideration they put into watching the dogs before they add them to the big group for playtime. Having a smaller dog I’m always nervous about her being in big groups with large dogs (even though she loves big dogs). K-9 does a great job of making sure dogs are comfortable rather than just putting them in with everyone else and hoping for the best.“

“We A relatively new to this practice and we’ve been nothing but pleased and impressed with the service and care they give our two dogs. Thank you so much.“

“Everyone at Wheaton Animal Hospital was outstanding! Very efficient, and VERY kind! I will continue to bring my pets here!“

“Kerry was so wonderful and so patient with us and our french bulldog! He was having accidents and his door-manners were terrible (jumping all over our guests) and since getting onto the e-collar he's been a lot more obedient. Kerry even came to our home after his 2-week stay to help with the transition and has made herself readily available whenever needed. She is an expert and we are so appreciative!!“

“They do everything they can for my doggo and cats and treat them with such compassion and do everything to make sure they’re happy and if it’s more serious they’ll find referrals. Amazing vet work.“

“They took very good care of senior special needs girl. They made sure she got her meds and updated me w/ pics and texts on how she was doing. Very happy w/ Cedar Lane!“

“I have to start off by saying my rescue dog has major separation anxiety. I was nervous to leave him with a facility or anyone, really.

PNP really made him feel as comfortable as possible upon check in! The staff is friendly and most of all the establishment is CLEAN and disinfected throughout the day!

You get access to cameras to watch over your pup interact with other dogs in the play area. They also have single suite/room options if your dog is not sociable and also doesn’t do well in crates.

Overall, I really feel comfortable knowing my anxious doggo is in the best hands whenever I have to travel !“

“Dogtopia of Oakbrook Terrace has been amazing for my boys, BJ and CJ! The staff goes above and beyond to ensure they have a fun and safe day of play. I never have to worry when I need to board them because I know they are in great hands. The team is caring, attentive, and truly treats them like family. It’s such a relief to know they receive loving care every time they visit. I highly recommend Dogtopia of Oakbrook Terrace to any pet parent looking for a trustworthy and caring daycare and boarding facility!“

“Beautiful facility, great staff, easy to use website for ordering Rx ... excellent care for my dog.“

“My dogs love coming here, I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my pups. They are a little high maintenance but everyone on the Lagrange team is so caring and friendly with my dogs.“

“Clean facility, everyone is so welcoming and answers any questions you may have . The groomer is truly amazing.“

“Staff was helpful and Dr. Jonathan was very kind and informative to my cats needs, I would recommend this animal hospital to other people“

“I’m very happy with my grooming experience at The Barker Shop. Simon looks very handsome after every visit as did my previous dogs, Bob and Sugar.

The woman at the front desk was efficient and courteous. The groomer keeps excellent records, so communication of my grooming preferences is easy.

The new location is easy to access.

I’m very pleased with everything about The Batker Shop.“

“This place is great! My pup gets so excited when he goes for training and the staff really take the time and effort to work with him and get him to his goals!“
