Unleashed In Evanston

I can attest to the quality of both the training at Unleashed in Evanston as well as the daycare.
TRAINING: My bloodhound Roscoe has been getting his training from Meg at Unleashed since he was 10 weeks old. Meg is an absolutely wonderful dog trainer and Roscoe loves her. We have taken puppy classes, basic obedience classes, coming when called classes, and sniff-​and-​seek classes, and he and I have learned a lot every time. Meg has a very positive attitude and great experience with all kinds of dog issues and will provide you and your pooch with the tools you need to ensure a happy and polite dog.
DAYCARE: Once Roscoe was fixed he began to attend the daycare at Unleashed twice a week. He loves it. He plays non-​stop and comes home at the end of the day exhausted. They provide multiple areas so that dogs of different sizes and temperaments can be grouped, and plenty of staff to watch over our best friends. The staff have been nothing but polite and attentive and it’s been a top-​notch experience. They also occasionally (not often enough!) post pictures to their facebook page so we can see our dogs in action!

Moved to Skokie from Chicago this past summer and had to find a daily doggy daycare for my high energy goldendoodle. Was surprised by the lack of options in the area, but decided to give Unleashed a try based on its proximity to my job. I LOVE Unleashed. Maisie is so happy there; she goes 5 days a week and has a blast every day. She is so happy to go in and see her human and canine friends. Everyone knows her by name and gives her kisses and hugs just like she likes. It took her about a month to get comfortable there, but they were so patient with her transition. It’s a bit pricey but it’s worth every penny; I have peace of mind that she’s safe and well taken care of on a daily basis by people that love her almost as much as I do. I recommend Unleashed without hesitation.

we took our 1 year old pitbull here last year for a tricks class and it was so great! the teacher was fantastic and patient and my pup had a wonderful time and learned alot! was a great way to channel some of her energy into something positive during the cold months.

Our dog Jackson LOVES going to Unleashed! He goes 2x/​week but I know he would prefer to go every day. He loses his mind when they come to pick him up. The staff is wonderful and really love all of the dogs that go there. We really cannot say enough wonderful things about Unleashed. It’s a bit pricey but we obviously think it is worth the cost. The best part is that our little one is EXHAUSTED when he comes home. I love the little guy… but I love him best when he is sleeping. :) Unleashed is the greatest!!!

I relocated to the Chicago area a year and a half ago and tried to find a Doggy Day care that met the high standards I had come to know in my home town. Those included a staff that paid attention to my pooch, a place that genuinely cared about my pup, and as a must, had an unleashed/​cage free policy.
I had a few unfortunate experiences before finding Unleashed. Those didn’t know who I was or what my dog’s name even was when I arrived for pick up. My dog was happy to go home from those. But not with Unleashed!
My cockapoo was losing his doggy social skills but now is back to being his fun self with the help from the staff and the experience only being with other canines can bring. Dogs need to be with other dogs! Dogs just wanna have fun!
My pup loves «school» as I call it when we head out in the AM to go to day care. When we are a block away, he whimpers and can’t contain himself with excitement because he knows we are en route to «school» — his favorite place!!! He can’t get in the door fast enough! And when he gets home, he eats a big dinner and then sleeps the sound sleep you only have after a long fulfilling day of romping and sniffing and running and hanging out with your canine «buds». Not to mention, he gets to be with the friendly staff that organizes playtime, naptime and makes the whole day a doggy fun time!
We are so happy we found Unleashed!

Congratulations to Dr. Becky Trisko and the wonderful Unleashed staff for winning the 2011 Best of Evanston Award in the Pet Exercising, Feeding & Sitting Services category by the US Commerce Association (USCA)!!!
Unleashed in Evanston is the BEST place to bring your dog for socialization, training, exercise and affection while you’re at busy at work. Dr. Trisko is incredibly knowledgeable about dog behavior and socialization and has trained her staff very well.
When I bring my dogs here, I know they are in good hands and are having the time of their life playing with their buddies — both dog and human! When I tell my dogs, «Do you want to go to daycare today?» they go CRAZY with excitement! And when it’s time to go home, they never want to leave! :)
The staff at Unleashed are fantastic and truly care for each dog and his/​her best interets — I always look forward to hearing stories about their day and seeing the pictures and videos uploaded on their Facebook page.
If you are looking for a trustworthy and responsible place to bring your dog during the day — I highly recommend bringing them to Unleashed in Evanston! They also offer amazing training classes in the evening ranging from beginner puppy to advanced obedience and ‘fun-​gillty.‘
When my dogs are happy, I am happy! Thank you Unleashed In Evanston for taking such great care of my dogs!

We have been happy clients for 2 ½ years. We have had our dog at other places but this is by far the cleanest and most dog centered facility. The owner and her staff really love these dogs. It looks like a daycare-​colorful and with a ramp and outdoor area for the dogs to roam and play. My dog is always very excited to go and play. It really helps with socialization and in getting his energy expelled.
