Dog Daycare

An Enrichment Center that happens to be a great dog daycare!

We are Chicago's First Center for Canine Enrichment. The love we share for your animals and our own pushes us to constantly evolve and educate ourselves.  Rockstar Pets' Canine Enrichment Program is a guided, active, indoor/outdoor, learning program with the right balance of socialization opportunities and structured free-play sessions, in spacious, off-lead environments. There will always be experienced, animal loving staff to keep a close eye on your dog to make sure they’re safe, happy, hydrated, and rested while in our care. 

Rockstar Pets Chicago is proud to be the premier daycare destination in Chicago.

We offer over 3,000 sq ft of outside play areas plus 5,000 sq ft of indoor space. Daycare is broken into two groups by play styles, age and size. We monitor the dogs at all times, and our daily routine includes organized play sessions and time outdoors for several reasons:

  • Outdoor enrichment satisfies your dog's physical and psychological needs
  • Outdoor enrichment maintains house training
  • Leading veterinarians recommend as much time outside as possible

Our system of Membership and Attendance is ultimately how our program stays small, friendly, active, safe and full of well-socialized, happy dogs. Of course, to do this, and ensure the utmost safety, we must have a relationship with each individual dog. Hence, another reason why we don’t take dogs randomly, or for our bottom line.

Our Enrichment Programs

A system of Regular Attendance sees each enrolled dog attend recurring 2 or 3 days each week - The same days each week, arriving before 9:30am on an ongoing basis. A regular routine of learning, play and rest means your dog will never be over-stimulated or over-tired at Rockstar Pets or at the end of the day. Missed days can have a big impact on your dog's learning and overall health.

Once in attendance, dogs become part of the Canine Enrichment Program and can also be booked in for Overnight Boarding, year-round, as is needed by the pet parents. 

We offer two day programs:

  • Puppy Basics is designed for puppies 3.5-6.5 months old (details coming soon)
  • Our Daycare Enrichment Program is designed for dogs over 6 months old, but dogs must be spayed or neutered to attend

An important element of our program is Skill Building. We work one-on-one with your dogs on skills that are relevant to the experiences they will part of during enrichment, at home and in the real world. Skill building bridges the understanding of how the dog needs to behave in order to have access to greater freedom (enrichment), and our dogs learn to relate to the dog and the human as a cooperative team.
