We are located in a beautiful rural setting just west of Crystal Lake and north of Huntley and have been tending to the needs of family, friends, neighbors, and their pets in northeast Illinois for over 20 years. We don’t believe in “storing” your pets until your return. Instead, we give them many opportunities each day to get off the concrete and out of the building and run around and play in our
ten large grassy play yards. Well socialized pets are allowed to play together in small groups while some owners and/or pets prefer a yard to themselves. We will also work with you on emergencies (delivery of baby, death or illness in family, etc.) regarding arrival time outside of normal business hours. Rates: Flat Rate

During Your Pets Stay:
• Please provide a telephone number where YOU can be reached in case we have any questions or have a medical emergency during your pet's stay.
• You are welcome to bring "stuff" for your pets. Many of our clients bring toys, stuffed animals, towels, beds, old sweatshirts that smell of you, etc. You may even bring your own food, although we feed a very high quality diet of the best human grade dry and canned foods, supplemented with vitamins and minerals.
• No dishes or bowls please. We have everything we need to care for your pet. Nutrition:
We believe that so many of our pets are nutritionally deficient. They have poor coats, flaky, itchy skin, sores that won't heal, ear infections, etc. Please don't be offended if we ask what you are feeding at home. We have an information sheet that will help you evaluate the quality of any dog (or cat) food by its ingredients list. The diet at the kennel for those who do not bring their own food consists of the very best dry and canned food. We also have a lending library of books and CDs on behavior, training, animal psychology, health care, nutrition, etc. A Day In Our Kennel:
Out: First thing in the morning we start rotating dogs into our large, grassy, fenced-in yards, clean their kennels, and give fresh water. Breakfast: Once all dogs are back into their kennels, it is time to feed; your food or ours, according to the directions you gave us. This is also time for medicine time, clean up, laundry, bathing, etc. Clean kennels and yards again and again
Naptime: Lights out, no people in back to disturb this quiet time. Out: Rotate all dogs into yards, clean, fill water, etc. Dinner: Feed, medicine, water... etc. Out: Rotate all dogs out into yards, clean, and water
Free Time: Til Morning
Please Call or Stop By and Visit. We Love to Show People Around and Talk About Pets, Yours and Ours.
