Dog Boarding for Berwyn — A Straight Run Up the Eisenhower

Pet Care Plus is not in Berwyn. We are at one address in Chicago’s West Loop, where the same family has cared for dogs since 1998, in a facility built for animals from the ground up.

From Berwyn the trip is one road for almost all of it. Families here make the drive for what a single purpose-built resort can offer that a nearer option often cannot: private climate-controlled suites, a team on-site 24/7/365, five independent air-handling systems, and our own parking lot at the door.

Dog boarding starts at only $69.95 per night plus your choice of activity package. New clients receive their first night free when mentioning this page.

The Drive from Berwyn

Distance: roughly ten miles from Berwyn to 350 N. Laflin St.
Route: I-290 east from Austin Boulevard or Harlem Avenue, exiting at Racine Avenue.
Timing: about 20 to 25 minutes outside peak hours.
Parking: on-site parking at the facility for drop-off and pick-up.
Pet Taxi: available as a named service; call to confirm coverage for your address.
Transit: the Blue Line Forest Park branch runs parallel, but a car is far easier on a boarding day.
Hours: drop-off and pick-up from 6:45am weekdays, with extended hours available.

One location, one team, since 1998. The people who greet your dog at drop-off are the people who are there overnight.

Built From the Ground Up for Animals

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. Berwyn is bungalows and small yards, and a lot of dogs here spend the working day indoors and alone. What tends to matter most on a boarding stay from this area is not more stimulation but better structure — real activity, then real rest, in a suite that is quiet enough to sleep in.

Rest Is Part of the Stay

We 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.

Before Your First Stay

Current Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella vaccinations are required, along with a negative fecal result from the last six months. Most Berwyn 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.

Berwyn Boarding FAQs

Does Pet Care Plus have a location in Berwyn?

No. Pet Care Plus has operated from one address in Chicago’s West Loop since 1998. The same team cares for your dog on every visit, which is the part Berwyn families tell us they were missing at places that rotate staff.

How far is the resort from Berwyn?

Roughly ten miles. Most families drive it in about 20 to 25 minutes outside peak hours, straight east on I-290 and off at Racine Avenue. There is on-site parking at the building, so the last few minutes are not spent circling.

Can I drop off before work?

Yes. Drop-off and pick-up start at 6:45am on weekdays, which is early enough to hand the dog over and still get downtown or back out west. Call ahead if your dates need anything outside standard hours.

What vaccinations are required for boarding?

Pet Care Plus requires proof of current Rabies, the distemper combination (DHPP), and Bordetella vaccinations, along with a negative fecal result from the last six months. Pet Care Plus requires vaccination records; it does not administer vaccines.

How much does dog boarding cost?

Dog boarding starts at $69.95 per night plus your choice of activity package. Multiple suite sizes are available for dogs of all sizes and for multi-dog families, so call for a quote on your specific dates.

Is the facility supervised overnight?

Yes. Pet Care Plus is staffed 24/7/365, so pets at the resort are never left alone — overnight, on weekends, or over holidays.

What if my dog prefers quieter care?

Dogs stay in spacious, private, climate-controlled suites, and individual and special-care options are available for dogs that prefer a quieter approach. Mention it on your tour and the team will plan around it.

How do you care for senior dogs?

Senior care can include reduced stimulation, softer handling, and attentive observation. Our team recognizes when a dog needs rest or may need to see a veterinarian. Pet Care Plus provides boarding care and observation, not veterinary treatment.

Can I check in on my dog during a stay?

Yes. Pet Care Plus offers live webcam access so pet parents can view their pet remotely during a stay.

Can I see the boarding areas before I book?

Yes. In-person tours are available during business hours so you can see the suites, the pool, and the team before an overnight stay.
