Dog Boarding in the West Loop — This Is Our Neighborhood

Pet Care Plus is the West Loop’s own pet resort. We have been at 350 N. Laflin St. since 1998, under the same family, in a building put up for animals rather than converted into one.

For neighbors this is the simplest version of boarding there is: no highway, no hunting for parking in another neighborhood, and a team who will recognize your dog on the second visit. Private climate-controlled suites, staff on-site 24/7/365, five independent air-handling systems, and our own parking lot.

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.

Getting Here in the West Loop

Distance: we are in the West Loop, at 350 N. Laflin St.
Route: Laflin Street just north of Lake Street — you are already here.
Timing: minutes from anywhere in the neighborhood, and walkable from much of it.
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 Green and Pink Lines at Ashland, and the Blue Line at Illinois Medical District, are all close.
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. West Loop dogs live in apartments and lofts, most without a yard, and their exercise is scheduled rather than incidental. That is precisely what the resort is built around — an open run, a 15,000-gallon heated saltwater pool, and structured play that gives a city dog the movement the neighborhood cannot.

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 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.

West Loop Boarding FAQs

Where exactly in the West Loop are you?

At 350 N. Laflin St., Chicago, IL 60607, on Laflin just north of Lake Street. We have been at this one address since 1998 and there is on-site parking at the building.

Can I walk my dog over for drop-off?

Plenty of neighbors do. Drop-off and pick-up run from 6:45am on weekdays, 9:00am Saturdays and 10:00am Sundays, and if you are walking over there is no parking to think about at all.

Do you get busy with local dogs on holiday weekends?

Yes, and the neighborhood books early. If your dates fall over a holiday it is worth reserving well ahead, because suites for those weekends go before anything else.

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.

Structured Care. Lifelong Wellness.
