From our family to yours.
Do you remember your childhood dog? That faithful hound you played fetch with in the yard or wrapped your arms around when things were tough. That dog that stayed by your side as you walked down the sidewalk and looked into your eyes and tilted his head when you talked as if he knew exactly what you were saying.
Almost everyone had that one dog growing up, or always wished they did. You know the dogs I’m talking about? The ones like Shadow and Chase, Ol’ Dan and Little Ann, Old Yeller, Skip, Beethoven, Benji, and Winn Dixie. There’s something powerful about that one childhood dog that stays with a person for the rest of their lives even long after the dog has passed.
At Joley Aire, we have made it our mission to provide families with that one dog for their kids to grow up with.
Why? Because we are parents just like you that want our kids to benefit from the lifelong lessons we had from that one dog. Those lessons of responsibility, empathy, connection, and love came directly from our childhood pets and remain with us today.
the name
“Joley Aire” is special to us because it is the combination of our oldest 3 kid’s names. We are all about family and love to bless other families with incredible puppies to experience an amazing life with.
We live on the prairies of Illinois. Our fenced in acreage is the perfect place for and dogs to get to run around and play and live like dogs should. We love seeing them in a natural setting.
our breeding program
The first thing we keep in mind is to breed dogs that will be perfect for kids. That’s what led us to Bernese Mountain Dogs and Bernedoodles. Both breeds are kind, loving, and loyal. They are easy to train and willing to please!
Personality is our main focus, but we also genetically test all our dogs to ensure the health of the puppies.
Our Bernedoodles range in size from 40 - 100 lbs as adults. We have the most amazing colors in our Bernedoodles! From the classic tri-color to the flashy merles, our puppies are the envy of the neighborhood.
We do our best to make sure all our puppies receive training and socialization opportunities while they are with us. This helps them grow to be the best family dogs they can be!
We’ve been breeding dogs since 2017 and love every minute of it!

Our History
I (Rebekah) had an amazing Dalmatian name Gino. That dog was seriously the best dog ever. I could tell endless stories about her loyalty, obedience, and friendships, but I’ll spare you.
My husband grew up with a dog named Ricky, a toy Fox Terrier that he describes as a football with legs!
As a couple and a business, we started out with our first Goldendoodle: Reagan and immediately fell in love with the breed. They are spunky and sweet and, of course, minimally shedding. It wasn't long before we found ourselves bringing home a second Goldendoodle, this time a mini, and named her Ronnie.
In 2018 we moved to a house with more acreage and added a few more dogs to our “Pack”. It was then that we discovered Bernedoodles and Bernese Mountain Dogs. While we still love Goldendoodles, we’re obsessed with the Bernese and Bernedoodles and have decided to focus on them moving forward.
Our Dogs
We absolutely love our dogs and they are 100% pets before anything else. We are purposefully keeping our “breeding operation” small so we can give each of our dogs the love and attention they deserve. Not all of the dogs below live with us as some get to enjoy being single family pets in our friend’s and family’s homes. The dogs that do live with us enjoy a massive fenced in backyard, lots of snuggles on the couch, and kids to play with whenever they want.
