Pals For Pups

This doggy day care came highly recommended from Knollwood client, Theresa Cava, mom to Oreo.  Here is what Theresa had to say about Pals For Pups:

It is owned and operated by 2 women (Patti and Val) who have years and years of experience with dogs.  They have about 9,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor play area.  The outside is fenced with a high privacy fence and has smaller stones and trees for shade.  The indoor area has Big Paw Land and Little Paw Land.  There is a nap room where the dogs can relax from a hard day of play between 11am – 1pm.  They get plenty of exercise as Prince Oreo sleeps all the way home and even has fallen asleep next to his food and my dog never passes up a meal.  You get a report card at the end of each day letting you know how your precious behaved while you were gone.  Patti also sends a picture or two throughout the week so I can see my guy in action.  They also have grooming, boarding and training on location as well.  Boarding also includes play during the day.  No need to worry about your baby while you are gone because at night, he is doggone tired – believe me.   

The cool part of this place is that on Saturdays between 9 – 11am and 11:30 – 1:30pm they have Yappy Hour.  You can come with your dog and stay and play for only $10.  The difference between this and the dog parks is that the owners still check health records and evaluate the dogs rather than just letting them jump right in.  They are also there to chaperone the dogs’ play so they are safe.  

I have to say, the owners did a nice job of combining the best of the daycares and came up with a huge hit.  I strongly suggest that if you can’t get your dog in for daycare that you get him there for Yappy Hour.  He still gets to socialize and you do as well. 

P.S. If you check out the Yappy Hour pictures in the Gallery, you will see Oreo and even me in one.

Hello! This is Raegan Taylor.  I wanted to tell you about my doggy daycare in Lake in the Hills.  I guess it's technically Daddy's business, but we both know I'm the top dog in charge!
 
I hope you can check us out.   We love visitors!   I'll even get all my friends there to sing (err, or howl) a grand welcome!

Knollwood client Cynthia Puleo, mom to Bosco and Gizmo, highly recommends this very caring, yet professional petsitter.  When 17 year old Gizmo fell ill last week and no one was available to rush him to Knollwood, Pat from Elite Pet Sitters was there to help.  When Cynthia emailed Pat to thank her for her much needed help, Pat replied with a heartwarming email, assuring Cynthia that she was very attached to Gizmo and that she did everything she possibly could that day to help.  The Puleos are glad she did!
