Birds of a Feather and Friends was created to help fellow pet owners who need an alternative or addition to traditional doggie day care or boarding facilities for their companions. You have found us because you belong to the community of pet owners who are looking for the best in-home care for their pets. Birds of a Feather and Friends has been serving Gurnee and surrounding areas in northern Lake County for 13 years and counting. I have cared for pets from A-Z  – birds, bunnies, cats, chickens, dogs, fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, iguanas, newts, tortoises, turtles ….and more to come. I always enjoy new critters to care for!!
