Great service! First time using Cozy Cats last month while I was away for a week. The sitter (Luna)…read morewas incredible. I received very detailed reports of my cat's visit along with at least a dozen photos and a video each day. My cat is very timid around strangers but warmed to Luna quickly, enjoying the attention and even allowing for some playtime. The initial consultation and key drop off was very smooth. Highly recommend.

A 1yo lab mix just joined our family somewhat suddenly. He was a bit anxious and didn't warm up to everybody right away. They came to meet him a few times before we needed the walking to start so that he would be comfortable. They were VERY patient as he worked through his fears and now he does zoomies when his walker comes to take him out.

We're still using Heaven Sent and we couldn't be happier. I don't have any material updates, I just…read morewanted to post again to reiterate the praise from my original review and let folks know we've been using Heaven Sent continuously since then too. Bravo Heaven Sent!

Meg and the other trainers do a great job with the dogs and the owners (who in our case were the ones that really need the training). They have a nice set up, small classes and our dog liked it so much that every time I open the door to my car he tries to jump in figuring that we are going back there. Meg offers practical, reasonable advice and it is obvious that all of the staff really care for the animals. Highly recommend for anyone looking for help with their training.

First off, this review is long overdue. My dog Lucy LOVES this place & so do I. I recently moved to…read moreEvanston and needed somewhere for my Frenchie to go while I worked.  I went to several other dog daycares,  but none were a good fit until I found this place. Here are a few of the reasons why Rex's Place is the place to go: - Cleanliness: it's SO clean inside & doesn't have the usual smell of dog urine when you walk in & when you pick up your pups. - Fun environment: they have pools and water toys for the pups to cool off with during the hot days. They even do fun photo shoots with the dogs. Checkout their Social Media pages to see what your pups are doing for the day. - AMAZING staff: They give me a report on how Lucy did for the day & always greet me & the pup with a friendly smile. - Flexible hours: their hours are great for drop off/pick up. Same with boarding, most places charge a ton for additional hours but the hours here fit my crazy schedule perfectly. -For new pups, they do a free trial day to evaluate temperament which shows they care. Average/overcrowded boarding facilities that only want $$$ don't really care to do this. I'm also glad to see that they thoroughly screen vet records to make sure dogs are vaccinated before starting trial day. The one and only thing I really miss and wish they had are Webcams: being able to watch my fur baby from work to see how she's doing would be nice. But overall I have nothing but good things to say about this place! Thank you to Kathy and all the staff at Rex's Place you are all angels for the work you do!

I sent my dog here for years. At first things were great, but then they went downhill fast. After…read morecountless issues I had to pull my dog from Rex's Place. The most troubling - they sent my dog home with the wrong family and they didn't even realize it until I showed up to get her. Unfortunately I do not recommend trusting them with your dog.

I can't say enough about Adam and Barkwalk. Our previous dog walker decided to stop providing…read moreservice to our area and we needed to quickly find a replacement. Adam and Cary came out promptly and from the first phone call were incredibly professional and accommodating. We have an older dog and she immediately felt comfortable with Adam. I really appreciated his flexibility as sometimes our schedules would change at the last minute (or I would forget to notify him the evening before that a walk wouldn't be needed the following day). Adam was always gracious and accommodating. I also really appreciated how responsive he was to texts and emails. He was also wonderful about coordinating walks around showings when we were in the process of selling our home. We recently left Highland Park and I know that our dog is going to miss Adam terribly. Barkwalk provides exceptional service.

I searched and searched for a dog walking company on Thumbtack and on Yelp and finally came across…read moreone that served the Northbrook area. HAPC responded right away on Yelp, took my information, made a home visit, and we were on our way! Vanessa the owner was a dream. She met my moms dog Louie and started walking him and I would get daily status emails and pics of Louie when they were out and about. What I also love about HAPC is that I didn't have to go through so many hoops and applications like some other companies who ask for way too much info, like your dogs blood type and your blood type etc. I kid, but really, HAPC makes the process go a lot easier than what's out there. If you need a reasonably priced, reliable, and trustworthy dog walking company, I would not hesitate to contact Home Alone Pet Care. I thank you Vanessa, you're a life saver!
