Pet Care Plus is about ten minutes south of Wicker Park, at 350 N. Laflin St., under the same family since 1998 and built for animals rather than converted.
Ashland runs you almost the whole way. Private climate-controlled suites, a team on-site 24/7/365, five independent air-handling systems, and our own parking lot — which is the part Wicker Park clients tend to appreciate most.
One location, one team, since 1998. The people who greet your dog at drop-off are the people who are there overnight.
The resort at 350 N. Laflin St. was purpose-built rather than converted. It has five air-handling systems, spacious private suites, and a 15,000-gallon in-ground heated saltwater outdoor pool. Wicker Park dogs are busy dogs. They are out constantly, they meet a great many other dogs, and they are frequently over-stimulated rather than under-exercised. We do not over-schedule boarding dogs for exactly that reason: structured activity, then genuine wind-down time.
Take the Virtual TourWe do not over-schedule boarding dogs. Dogs in our care have structured activity and real wind-down time, because an anxious, depleted dog at pick-up was not cared for, just occupied. Our team knows the difference between a quiet dog who is content and one who needs attention.
Explore Our Approach
Current Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella vaccinations are required, along with a negative fecal result from the last six months. Most Chicago veterinary practices will send records directly — worth requesting about a week ahead so nothing delays drop-off. We would also rather meet your dog before an overnight stay.

About two and a half miles, roughly ten minutes by car south on Ashland and west on Lake. We have on-site parking at the building.
Play is structured and supervised rather than open free play, and the team knows the difference between a dog who is enjoying itself and one who has tipped over. Individual and special-care options are available if your dog does better with a quieter approach.
