Testimonials

On 4/4/2026 Katherine Thorpe had this to say:
Friendly staff. Dogs were happy.

On 9/2/2025 Amy Flodin had this to say:
I recently had to board my rescue Husky/Amer. Eskimo mix Wolf for a month while I've been recovering from knee replacement surgery. I needed to make sure I could walk him before bringing him home. He's on prescription kibble and meds so I prepared daily meal/pill packets to make it easier to care for him. Since he was staying so long, I needed to make sure he got out in the play yard every day (weather permitting) to get some exercise without any other dogs because he's reactive. When I picked him up, he was pretty clean for not being groomed for a month and he didn't smell. While Belle Aire does grooming, Wolf is a handful requiring drugs and a muzzle. So, it was decided that I would schedule an appt. with his regular groomer who has the magic touch with him when I got him home. The rates were reasonable. I am very pleased by the care he received at Belle Aire Kennels. Highly recommended!

Belle Aire Kennels continues to exceed our expectations, offering a clean and comfortable atmosphere that provides our dog with a wonderful and reliable overnight stay, and at an affordable price that fit our budget. He loves to go there because of how well they treat him and over the years we’ve appreciated the care of the staff during his stays.

FAQ

What types of pets do you board at your facility in Downers Grove, IL?

We proudly offer boarding for dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds in a safe, clean, and caring environment. Whether your pet has fur, feathers, or floppy ears, we provide species-specific accommodations and attention to ensure their comfort during their stay.

Is someone on-site with the pets during their stay?

es! The owner lives on-site, providing 24/7 supervision and care. This ensures your pet receives consistent attention, quick response to any needs, and a home-like atmosphere that reduces stress and anxiety.

What vaccinations are required for boarding?

We require proof of current vaccinations for all pets. For dogs and cats, we specifically require:

- Rabies
- Distemper
- Bordetella (kennel cough)

Please bring updated records from your veterinarian at check-in. This helps us maintain a healthy environment for all guests.

Should I bring my pet’s food and treats?

Yes, we ask that you bring the appropriate amount of food and treats for your pet’s stay. This helps maintain their routine and digestive health.
If your pet has special dietary needs, a small fee may apply.
For pets on a whole food diet requiring refrigeration, an additional fee will be charged to cover storage and handling.

Our facility offers:

- Multi-species boarding (dogs, cats, rabbits, birds)
- On-site owner supervision for personalized care
- Compliance with state vaccine tracking
