1. Sit Social
“My dog Trudy and I LOVE Sit Social! All of the staff members are so kind and professional and treat Trudy like their own dog. Daycare at Sit Social is worth every penny, especially knowing that my dog is being cared for by people who love her and gets to play with other dogs her size.”
2. Ania Z.
“Ania was absolutely fabulous with my boy! Took him for a nice long walk. I could tell when I picked him up that he had really bonded with her.”
3. David R.
“These guys….so loving toward our pups. Communicative and friendly - we just can’t say enough good things. Bean and Olive had a wonderful time spending the afternoon and evening with David so we could attend a wedding worry-free. Highly recommend if you need pet care in the Windy City. Wish we could give six stars!”
4. John K.
“John & Rosa did a great job taking care of our pup for an afternoon! John was very communicative upfront and during daycare, ensuring there were plenty of pictures to review afterwards. Will definitely work with them again!”
5. K9 University
“My dog has been going to K9 University for about 8 years. When I’m out of town or not I take him there for doggy daycare. They take care of his grooming. I also have enrolled my dog into their classes for nose work, agility and obedience and my dog absolutely loves it. I am also satisfied with the results and experience of K9 University INC. Their staff members are well trained and they all practice the same delivery of services, for instance, what one staff members provide in quality customer services so does the remaining 5 staff members, therefore the quality you receive from this company isn’t compromised; moreover, they go above and beyond. They are all very professional and possess a wonderful attitude – they look very happy to be there. I’ll most definitely recommend using K9 University INC.”

“I can't say enough positive things about the care that Morgan provided for Remi! Morgan was incredibly communicative, sending me regular updates and adorable photos that reassured me while I was away (this was my first time using a dog sitter with Rover). Returning home, it was clear that Remi had a fantastic time and was in great spirits. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Morgan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and top-notch dog sitter. Thank you for providing such wonderful care and treating Remi like she was your own pup :)”

16. Melanie S.
“Fantastic! My husband and I were in town for a business trip with our two French Bulldogs, Scribble & Dot. After reading so many glowing reviews and there were so many repeat stays, that we decided to give Rover a try. This was only our 3rd experience and we were thrilled. Melanie sent us tons of pics and updates throughout the day. She gave the girls several walks/day, took Scribble to the dog park daily and fed them in the evenings too. She was also sensitive to their tendency to overheat easily. On the last day, walking over, the girls even knew where they were going and were so excited to see Melanie. If you are a neurotic pet owner like us and nervous about leaving your pups, Melanie is definitely the best person to go with! She's very responsible and trust worthy.”
