PET CARE SERVICES


As a Pet Guardian for our rescued animals, we understand the demands of making sure your pets have everything they need. Due to work schedules, weekend plans or vacation schedules, you may find the need to have someone care for your pets while you are gone.

It seems like there are more and more pet care services popping up all the time and some are better than others. It’s important that you take your time and do your homework before making a decision on a service.

If possible, try to get a recommendation from a friend or family member. Also, take the time to make a personal visit to the facility to see how the pets are treated. Make sure they get ample play time and have good sleeping conditions. Your pets should be spilt into groups when play time comes around. For example, your dog should be grouped with other dogs of similar size and breed. You don’t want your dog getting hurt because a much larger dog injured him/her during play time.

A good Pet Care Service or kennel will request proof of current vaccinations. They are required to do so by law. All vaccinations are required in order to protect the health of your pet as well as the health of the other pets. You may be required to sign a release of liability which is normal for most services. Good Pet Care Services and kennel operators are interested in your dog and they should inquire about the pet's medical history, its needs, routines, food and medications that it may be currently taking.

For those living in the city of Chicago, a service we highly recommend is "The Pet Depot". The service they provide is unparalleled.
