Pet Care Plus is about three miles east of Garfield Park, at 350 N. Laflin St., where the same family has cared for dogs since 1998 in a facility built for animals.
Lake Street runs you straight there, and the Eisenhower is an option if the surface streets are slow. Private climate-controlled suites, a team on-site 24/7/365, five independent air-handling systems, and our own parking lot.
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. Garfield Park has the conservatory and a great deal of open ground, so many dogs here are used to space. The relevant part of a stay is therefore the open run and the pool rather than more indoor time, and a private suite quiet enough to settle in at night.
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.
