About Our Family Pet Sitting

<h2>A farm-based pet resort in West Chicago</h2>

<p>Our Family Pet Sitting Resort &amp; Spa sits on 5.5 acres of farmland at 29W516 Wilson Street in West Chicago, and the home page describes it as an &ldquo;Award Winning Country Pet Resort&rdquo; where dogs &ldquo;enjoy running the fields with their friends, doing arts and crafts, getting pampered in our spa, and feeling like one of the family.&rdquo; Training sits alongside day care, boarding and grooming rather than standing on its own.</p>

<h3>How it started</h3>

<p>The Our Story page credits Kelly and Joe, high school sweethearts, with building the business. It says Kelly spent 16 years in the healthcare sector and Joe built a career as a CPA in finance, that pet sitting started as a hobby and grew by word of mouth until their home could no longer hold the demand, and that in 2016 Kelly left her job, they sold their home and found 5.5 acres of farmland. The page calls it a &ldquo;bet the farm&rdquo; decision.</p>

<h3>Training programs</h3>

<p>The training page lists eleven numbered options: Puppy Training 101 for dogs 8 weeks to 6 months, Basic Obedience for 6 months and up, Advanced Obedience &amp; Tricks, Behavioral Modification for issues such as barking, chewing, separation anxiety, jumping and aggression, Socialization Classes, Senior Dog Training for dogs 7 years and older, group training classes, daycare pull-out sessions, a board and train program, one-on-one sessions with the owner, and a trainer consultation. The site publishes prices on that page: a 6-week group course is listed at $200, a daycare pull-out session at $75 per day with packages of 4 for $290 or 6 for $415, board and train at $115 per day, a one-on-one session at $75, and a consultation at $30. The page says &ldquo;our certified trainer uses positive reinforcement techniques&rdquo; without naming the trainer or the certification.</p>
