    I highly recommend Rockstar Pets! Our lab puppy has been going here for a little over a month now and absolutely loves it! He is enrolled in Puppy Kindergarten which is daycare plus training. He has gotten better about going in his crate and basic commands. We are still working on the jumping but has gotten noticeably better since day 1 (he is still a puppy, after all)! We also love getting pictures around lunchtime. The staff at rockstar are all incredibly friendly and helpful. They help address specific things I want to work on with my pup and he does seem to be getting better! They're very responsive via phone and email. Five stars!

    I take my husky puppy here for daycare and boarding, and he can be a bit of a handful but they take such good care of him. As soon as we walk through the door he starts wagging his tail and howling so I know he loves it there and I trust them with my pup. They have also given training advice which is appreciated.

    Barry loves coming to Rockstar! I wish we could bring him for daycare everyday. You guys are truly the best in the city! Please come to the south side by Midway

    A pic from the Rockstar Pets Halloween Party my doggie attended

    Rockstar pets has been taking care of my min pin for at least 2 years now. My dog loves the outdoors, so their outside play area is perfect for him. I get to see what he's doing, thru pictures they text me daily. This puts my mind at ease, when I'm away out of town. I will sometimes go to Petsmart if it's closer to where I'll be but it just doesn't compare to the attention and love Rockstar Pets shows its doggie clients. On Halloween I took him for a party there and I saw them training a whole school of dogs. I think for a longer stay I may look into getting some specialized training too but even with the normal daily play outside, my dog is plenty satisfied. I have been meaning to rate Rockstar Pets for some time now. When I saw the negligence of another company's driver and the stolen van, it drew me to write a review of a company who is very cautious and responsible. I hope to continue doing business here, as this is the only place a fully trust to leave my dog when I am out of town.

    Even in the snow, the dogs get to get their play on.

    We're so lucky we found Rockstar Pets! As neurotic new dog owners, we did exhaustive research on where to board our recently adopted, 1 y/o mutt Ziggy. After reading all of Rockstar's reviews, we were sold, even though the place is nowhere near our apartment. It's been worth the Ubers. Elissa was incredibly helpful and fit him in last-minute for two daycare evaluation days right before we had to leave on our trip. Every staff member we interacted with clearly knew and cared about the dogs at daycare and boarding like they were their own. Ziggy has stayed here twice now for week long periods, and in all the daily photo updates we've gotten, he's been having the time of his life playing with the other doggos! It's basically a big (supervised) dog party. We also noticed that the somewhat structured play environment has helped with Ziggy's manners at the dog park! Thank you, RSP for keeping our little buddy so happy and safe... and for returning him to us pleasantly exhausted :)

    We use Rock Star daycare usually 2-3 days a week. And our dog loves to play with all the other dogs. The facility is very clean. And everyone there is so helpful. We have also boarded our dog while on vacation. We opted to have one of the friendly staff members keep our dog at home during some evenings while away. He was so content and happy. I would recommend using Rockstar Pet for daycare AND boarding!!!

    Dogs having a great time

    Been taking my dog here for a year and a half. They are the best.... Rey (my dog) LOVES going. Tons of exercise, they give great baths, they are the best! THANK YOU ROCKSTAR!

    We scouted new daycares before moving to the area and found this place had the best space and good prices after doing a walk through. They are super friendly and know our dogs by name. They send us DAILY pictures and even sent update emails when we used them for boarding as well. They separate play groups and have people supervising them at all times. They play outdoors but also have cool down periods and breaks. After switching to them, our one dog has become less anxious and even put on healthier weight. She has changed for the better in this environment. She plays and socializes with her new friends tons. We couldn't be happier with them!

    Barney giving kisses @ Rockstar!

    Rockstar is one of the places we can recommend without any hesitation whatsoever. The entire team is kind, responsive, and cares about our Barney as though he were a member of their family. We travel quite a lot for work and personal reasons, and we completely trust Barney to their care when we're away. He leaps at the prospect of "going to school" just at the mention at home. The regular photo updates are a nice touch, and the extra special things - like making sure he had a birthday party when he had to be there on that day - really show the extra mile Elissa, Alex and the whole team go to. Rockstar is not necessarily convenient to our home - but when they moved, we changed our routine to stay with them. While this is the only day and boarding facility we've used, after comparing notes with friends who use others, we know Rockstar is one of the best for sure.

    Alex and Elissa are so nice and so flexible, and really made us feel so much better about leaving our dog.

    My family moved back to Chicago 6 months ago, and with the changes we noticed our 2 8lb Chihuahuas…read morewere struggling with adapting to the city and to us having more visitors (we now live near family) After doing a lot of research - I set an initial conversation with TUCKER PUPS to discuss my dogs, their challenges, and our long-term goals with them. I believe I was in contact with KIM who honestly made me feel like I was just chatting with a friend! She was so approachable, understanding, and really went into the details of what option would best support my tiny fur children. Fast forward 3 months and we just wrapped up our in-home training package with Maureen! I cannot stress how amazing the entire experience was. Maureen has truly changed our lives for the better. Where we started to where we are now is night and day better, especially for my more aggressive dog Luna! We went from no one being able to enter our apartment with the dogs out to now the dogs just hanging out when people are here! Maureen is patient with pets AND people. She is always positive and really explains the WHY of the behaviors and outcomes. She's always on time, super professional, and gave us practical tools that actually work to truly set our dogs up for success but also US up for success as "parents" Honestly, I am a little sad Maureen is so great at her job because we will miss her coming over! If you want a trainer who knows her stuff and makes the whole process feel doable, Maureen is your person!
