This was the first time I ve boarded my dog Leo. We were pretty nervous about it. But Samuel was amazing, the process was seamless. And I could tell Leo was safe and happy staying in his home. He ll be my first choice moving forward!

We truly could not be happier with choosing Kenneth to care for Paddy while we were out of town for a few days. Communication was strong and it was clear that he was invested in making Paddy comfortable and happy throughout his stay! We hope to book with him again the next time we have something planned.

Mariana did a wonderful job boarding Teddy. She sent me pictures and notes daily. Teddy came home well fed and very happy!! I would definitely hire Mariana again!

I had an amazing experience! He was great with my dog and communication was excellent. He sent me updates throughout my dog s stay, including feeding times and how he was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind. I 100% trust him with my dog and highly recommend him. My dog came home happy, healthy, and very well taken care of. I will definitely be booking with him again!

PAWS Chicago Annual Beach Party
Each year in July, PAWS Chicago throws a tail-wagging beach party to raise much-needed funds, celebrate our furry friends, and generally treat the local community of animal lovers to a grrr-eat night out! Held at Castaways North Avenue Beach, this paw-ty is a summer celebration for 500 luau guests and their pets. You and your pooch can enjoy the summer sun while you sip frozen cocktails, experience the cool Lake Michigan breeze, and socialize with plenty of other two and four-legged guests! There’s an open bar, a delicious dinner, live and silent auctions, pet spa services, and the chance to simply dance the night away while raising money for an excellent cause.

PAWS Chicago 5K Walk/Run
If you love dogs, there’s no doubt that you’ll love the PAWS Chicago 5K! Not only is this a paw-some fundraiser for PAWS Chicago, but it’s also Chicago’s largest dog-friendly event. Each year, thousands of dog lovers and their canine companions gather at Montrose Harbor to tackle the scenic 5K course. Participants of all ages and fitness levels are welcome, with the main focus on fun and helping animals rather than taking things too seriously. Other event highlights include live entertainment, food and drinks, free giveaways, and maybe even a celebrity or two, so there’s plenty for you and your pooch to see and do all morning long!

Jog For Dogs
If you want to get out and about in the great outdoors with your pooch, (not to mention raise some money for a woof-tastic local rescue group at the same time) add Jog For Dogs to your calendar for the year ahead! Held in May at Elk Grove Village, this dog-friendly event features a 5K run or 2-mile walk along the scenic forest preserve trails of Busse Woods. As well as a race packet and post-race food, all participants also get the op-paw-tunity to soak up the fun, relaxed atmosphere and spend some quality time with their four-legged friend! Best of all, proceeds from the event benefit ALIVE Rescue, a Chicago non-profit committed to protecting the lives and rights of animals.

Bark in the Park
Bark in the Park is a huge outdoor paw-ty for Chicago dog lovers and their canine companions. Held at the Soldier Field Stadium Green, this event gives you, your dog, and your whole family the ideal excuse to indulge in a peaceful picnic at a wonderful location. There’s also an optional 5K walk along Chicago’s beautiful lakefront, allowing you to take in some spectacular views of the city’s skyline. And while you’re enjoying a grrr-eat day out with your dog, remember that the funds raised from the event go to help The Anti-Cruelty Society care for nearly 20,000 animals each year!

This massive (and free!) dog event draws in thousands of pooches and their owners, keen to experience plenty of four-legged fun. Event highlights include dog performances, lure coursing, frisbee dog demos, wiener dog races, heaps of cool contests, and a parade of breeds!
