I will never take Kevin anywhere else. He loves this place and every single staff member who works there loves dogs. Do yourself and your dog a favor. Find yourself a dog boarding place that's going to love your dog as much as you do. I know I did!

I was nervous to give daycare a shot & I’m so glad I picked Dog Den! Alexa is extremely response and knowledgeable. Her and her staff are always friendly & they inform you on how your dog is doing. You can tell they truly care. I especially appreciate Abby and her patience. My pup gets anxious sometimes and I can tell how comfortable she is when sees Abby. Thank you all for what you do!!

We brought our new 7 month old Portuguese Water Dog to Dog Den for boarding for 9 days. Alexa suggested we bring her a few times for daycare prior to boarding so that our puppy would get use to the place. That was such a helpful recommendation not just for my puppy but for us as well. I felt so comfortable leaving her there as I knew she was in good hands and truly enjoyed going there. My puppy and we love it so much that we requested to be placed on the daycare list. Finally, we asked to have our puppy bathed. She smelled so good and was so clean. We highly recommend Dog Den for your furry baby’s needs!!!

I have used services of DogDen since I rescued my puppy two years ago and they are simply the best. Alexa and the entire crew there are extremely knowledgeable, and wonderful with all the dogs. The fact that this place has an outdoor play area (rare) was crucial for me in determining where to keep my dog. My puppy is a very nervous dog and normally takes her a while to take to people, but she joyfully rushes into the arms of everybody at this location, which tells me all I need to know about the care she receives.

We love Dog Den! Alexa is an amazing young woman with a fantastic staff. I was so impressed that she started this business in her early twenties. It is all very clean and organized and you know your dog is in good hands. Our yellow Lab puppy Sadie started going to the 4 days a week program that lasts for 4 weeks when she was about 6 months old and we have seen so much improvement. She loves going there. She now goes to daycare 3 days a week. Alexa's facility actually has an o

Sophie was attending the Dog Den Chicago Daycare for about a year and she loved it so much. All their personnel obviously truly love dogs. They care about the dogs and treat them like family. We used to walk 15 minutes to arrive there and Sophie knew where we were going. She walked even faster on our trip there because she was so excited to get there. When we arrived, she would give hugs to all the employees, which tells me that they were amazing with her. The only reason Sophie cannot go there anymore is because we moved to another state. I highly recommend Dog Den Chicago. Our experience there was amazing!

Dog Den is my dogs favorite place to go! We've tried other daycare/boarding facilities in the area and found that Dog Den has been the best experience for me and my dogs. The staff is so friendly and personable, and they make it a point to know each owner and their dog. Can't recommend them enough!

While I will give this place a 5 for dog training they deserve a 2 for dog daycare. After speaking to animal behaviorist (2 to be exact) after being told my dog has a high prey drive (what 8 month old lab doesn't) to find out my 60 pound dog should never have been allowed to be with smaller dogs. Not just the prey drive but larger dogs play rougher then smaller dogs. They can be stepped on etc. After interviewing different dog daycares I have found out that for most if not all have cams to check in through out the day. Also if there is an issue with your pup there is video evidence. I had nothing except for their word and honestly I feel my pups wasn't wanted they just wanted my money. The training was top notch and worth the money. I do have the best puppy ever and can take her to many places. She now has manners. But I do not recommend for day care. Lesson learned.

We are so grateful that we came across The Dog Den for our German Shepherd dog. She's always been a great dog, but was very anxious and reactive around other dogs and people. We enrolled our dog in their 2 week board and train program and have recently attended the private/group lessons. The results are amazing!!! Thanks to the knowledgeable trainers, we now have the ability to control our dog and are still working on making her even better. We will continue to return for classes and day care and will also recommend Dog Deg and their wonderful trainers (Alex, Alexa and Alana) to everyone we know. Thank you for ALL of your help and for a great experience!

I've been sending my dog here for a year now and it's his favorite place on earth. The owner and people who work there love dogs and have helped me navigate a variety of behavioral and health issues. I love having a local place that I trust with my dog.

Cannot recommend Dog Den enough! It is absolutely the BEST dog daycare/boarding in the Forest Park/Oak Park/River Forest area. I love that they post to Instagram throughout the day so you can see what the pups are up to. The staff is always friendly. My dog loves coming here and I always know he's in good hands. 5/5 all around.

LOVE THIS PLACE! Got my puppy back in November, started working with Dog Den in December. Everyone that works there is responsible for the angelic pup I have today. They’re all so compassionate & patient. The facility is always clean and orderly. She goes to doggie daycare at least once a week and LOVES it! The training is phenomenal, personal to your wants and the dog’s needs. Alexa is so incredibly patient with both dog & human. Very knowledgeable on how to train both.
