My dogs and I absolutely love Furry Paws, and I have a special fondness for the owner, Carolina…read more She has been instrumental in my dogs' socialization success. Along with her wonderful family and staff, she has gone above and beyond, and I can't thank them enough. When I first adopted my two rescue dogs, Clark and Addison, I had no idea what I was getting into. They were only 4 months old, extremely anxious and reactive, and I thought they couldn't be around other dogs or people. I wanted them to continue gaining exposure, especially while I was at work. Thanks to daycare, their social skills improved tremendously. I remember sharing with Carolina how I was concerned about them not having any exposure to children. Carolina's children would visit the daycare, now I can have friends with children visit. I always worried they might have a bad experience and regress, but I never had to worry about that while they were in daycare. Now, I can walk around my condo with ease, greeting neighbors and their dogs, and the boys are great with new dogs. Furry Paws has truly made a positive difference in their lives.

Her tail wags a lot with excitement when it's time for pick up and she's ready to take a nap at drop off. Carolina is the sweetest and recently came to my rescue with a last minute cancelation for boarding via Rover. They hosted a member appreciation event last year and it was so nice to put a face to names and meet the other dogs and owners. Highly recommend Furry Paws!!

If you're looking for a wonderful dog sitter, Jerry from Boy Meets Dog is fantastic. I had an…read moreupcoming trip and reached out to Jerry via his website. He was responsive from the beginning and cared to ask many questions about my dog, Ziggy, in order to get to know him. I left Ziggy with Jerry for almost 3 weeks and I had peace of mind that Ziggy was being cared for in the best way. In fact, I think Ziggy was a bit sad to be picked up after his time with Jerry. Would highly recommend Jerry's services and will use him again in the future.

We're so grateful to have found Jerry! He watched our two dogs for a week right after our move to…read moreChicago, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The dogs came back calmer, happier, and clearly well cared for. We weren't worried for a second while we were away -- Jerry was incredibly kind, reliable, and accommodating of all their little quirks and routines. Truly gave us peace of mind during a hectic time, and we're so thankful to have someone we trust with our pups. Highly recommend! Attached Nala getting hugs and Simba being a cutie!!

They've done an exceptional job with our Sammy. The staff is not only highly skilled but also genuinely caring, ensuring our dog's well-being and progress every step of the way. Sammy can be very stubborn, and all the staff have been very patient and understanding of Sammy's behavior - knowing how to make adjustments with/in training - something other facilities/trainers lack. Sammy is much more at ease, obedient, and going on walks beautifully (he is also in better shape)! Their philosophy is one that every facility/trainer should uphold. Highly recommend!!! *Thank you, Bow Wow Behavioral!

A close friend of mine has two dogs, whom I had the pleasure of dog sitting while she tended to…read moreother business. I was over 6 months pregnant at the time I begged to take them in (for 8 days), and days later, I realized the Samoyed and Corgi were a lot more work than I thought manageable. If I were on a Zoom meeting, the pair would have me cut it short. If I stepped out to grab groceries for dinner, they'd scratch my doors and cry for the entirety of my absence (according to my neighbor down the hall). Worst of all, the Samoyed sheds... A LOT. I like an ultra tidy home. A few days in, I called my friend (dog owner) to let her know they were much more than I was willing to deal with. She understood, and informed me her dogs get dropped off at VIP's Pet Hotels on a monthly basis when she's tending to her economic research. She was ready to pick them up and drop them off at this hotel. Instead, I called the hotel, and got a hold of Danielle who was so gracious to wait for my arrival that same evening for a drop-off. I was easily able to drive them over, drop them off, and have them well taken care of for a few more days. Due to COVID: They request that you do NOT bring soft toys from home, dog beds/blankets, or dog bowls; instead, simply pack the dogs' food and treats and they'll be ready to tend to the dogs upon arrival. Timo and Paul were so excited to see Danielle. THANK YOU VIP's Pet Hotel!

CALLING ALL NEW DOG OWNERS: RUN, DONT WALK, TO VIP! A…read moreneighbor in our building highly recommended VIP and before we knew it, our pup become a regular! I unsuccessfully searched all over the city for competitive daycare that wouldn't break the bank. VIP is by unequivocally the most affordable and accommodating. I LOVE how easy it is to communicate with them via text instead of missing another email or voicemail throughout the workday. Golden doodles are known for their separation anxiety, but you know they're in good hands when your dog is excited to go! Winston waits at the door for day care pick up and excitedly sprints when we drop him off overnight. * DAYCARE - They pick up our dog and drop him off even when we're not home. They also pick up other dogs in our apartment complex so if we have a last minute change of plans it's no problem for them to scoop up our little Winnie. Throughout the day they'll send you videos of your dog playing. * TRAINING - Matt made us feel reassured during our consultation and reiterates that they don't accept clients who are not committed to maintaining training. We opted for the board and train, but they offer classes as well. * BOARDING - it's a huge facility, so we never have issues with drop in boarding. The only thing that is a little tricky to get used to is the drop off and pick up windows - there's only 3 a day, but if you're close enough they're flexible.

Requiring Simple & Necessary Dog Vaccines for the safety and overall health of ALL visitors to…read morefacility. Nothing over the top, just simple ones. Some Boarders require more than this facility. It's a large inside Boarding and Day Camp facility, located in Oak Park on the North East corner of Lyman & Roosevelt Rd. Plenty of free street parking , make sure to read the signs. Camp Theme, log cabin style, super cute! Nice design and logo! Day Care is $37 for more than 6hrs, and $24 for less than 6hrs of care. It's $55 for boarding and an Extra $7 added for PEAK Times; holiday times. For multiple dogs that can sleep together, there is a discount. There is a noise restriction in Oak Park, so there is no outside play ground at this facility. This group "Camp Bow Wow" does have several locations. They do have 2 large indoor yards for Big Dogs & 1 yard for Smaller Dogs. A deposit is Required for Boarding, so make sure to ask all the necessary questions. They do have maximum capacities, and were very busy when I stopped in. Brianna was very pleasant and helpful. They have folders available with the Daily Schedule for Camp. Located in a busy area, just East of the Dollar Tree, Pete's & Lucky Dogs for fast food. Walgreens just West. Plenty of Gas stations nearby , as well as Dispensary just a block East.

They want an influenza vaccination, but my dog gets sick with her vaccinations and that one is not required by anyone else. I'm not going to risk her getting sick. I also couldn't take her to this kennel when she was less than a year old, because they required her to be spayed before the doctor recommended it. The doctor wanted her to wait until she had her first cycle, but this location required it even before that. I appreciate that they care about the health of the dogs, but I don't know how they can require things that go against the veterinarians recommendation. Very disappointing- we would like to be regular clients.
