Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to hire a sitter for puppy boarding in Chicago?
Trading puppy sitting with other dog parents in Chicago is absolutely free. WoofyClub charges a small membership of $49/year and it comes with a 30-day trial. You can absolutely use WoofyClub for free and still connect with other parents if you are not in a rush to put your own request in.
How do I contact a Chicago sitter for puppy boarding?
You can chat with any dog sitter through our messaging feature. We encourage your to trade phone numbers when you meet up for your first playdate to form a personal connection.
How many sitters provide puppy boarding in Chicago?
There are 31 sitters in Chicago.
How long will it take for me to find a puppy boarding sitter in Chicago?
It depends on your needs and the sitter's availability. We've seen people confirm their plans in as short as a few hours but typically it takes a week. It takes a few days to hear back from the community and then a few more days to meet up for a playdate to make sure the puppies are compatible and everyone is comfortable with the necessary care. If you're gone for longer trips (anything longer than an extended weekend), we also encourage a trial night to be absolutely sure.
How experienced are sitters providing puppy boarding in Chicago?
All sitters on WoofyClub are current dog or puppy parents. For older members, they might have reviews as well on their profile. Do not hesitate to ask them more!
My dog has special needs. Can I find dog boarding on WoofyClub that can accommodate my dog’s needs?
Yes absolutely. We've matched up families with service dogs, diabetic dogs, senior dogs, puppies, etc. Make sure to discuss it with the host family and also to include it in your profile. Everyone's very accommodating but it's better not to provide any surprises :)
What if my dog is not yet spayed or neutered?
That's totally ok. When creating your profile, you'll be asked if your dog has been spayed or neutered. While there are fewer families willing to take in a dog that hasn't been spayed or neutered, many families are open to it still.
What if my dog hasn't been fully vaccinated?
In general, your dogs need to be fully vaccinated. However, that might not be possible for puppies. If your puppy is too young to get vaccinated and you have it scheduled for them, please let the host know about it. We also ask about your dog's vaccination status when creating your profile. Often times, we find puppy owners swapping with each other as they're both going through the same journey.
