The dogs came back calmer, happier, and clearly well cared for. We weren't worried for a second while we were away -- Jerry was incredibly kind, reliable, and accommodating of all their little quirks and routines. Truly gave us peace of mind during a hectic time, and we're so thankful to have someone we trust with our pups. Highly recommend! Attached Nala getting hugs and Simba being a cutie!!

I am very particular about who we leave her with and I always know she's in the best hands with him. It's been a great alternative to traditional boarding because Ruby isn't confined to a crate/room and gets ton of love and attention. He's super communicative and flexible with scheduling plus Ruby gets SO excited to see him when we drop her off. He's been very attentive to any specific needs (special diet, medication) and always sends check-ins while we're away. Would highly highly recommend Boy Meets Dog anyone!!

Windy City Dog Walkers is an awesome company. They are a professional service, extremely reliable,…read moreflexible, and accommodating to schedule changes. I have been using Windy City for over 5 years now and never been disappointed. Dog walks occur on time with individuals who care and treat your pet as their own. Our current dog walker, Victoria, is an amazing person. Every day our dog is so excited to see her and she manages to get hime outside in all types of weather and condition to make sure he gets the exercise he needs. We truly appreciate Victoria's lovely care of our pet. Windy City Dog Walkers are truly 5 out of 5. Highest recommendation.

Mermaid (my do) gets excited to see them, but Jordan is not hesitant to message in the moment with any issues and/or concerns, such as when Mermaid laid down and refused to leave for a walk. The admin team is also extremely responsive and not just before and right after you commit. The app through which you do communication, scheduling, and payment is intuitive and easy to use. They also provide daily walk report with pictures in the app. Overall, I can't recommend Windy City Dog Walkers more.

We just had our first Chicago Pet Sitters experience and we are beyond thrilled with their service…read moreand relieved that we found a pet sitting company as detail oriented, friendly, and reliable as they are. We went on a long weekend and Rachel came 3 days in a row to watch our cats. Here's what I loved: An app notification when they arrived The ability to chat with the sitter separately from the admin team A very detailed report of the visit Tons of pictures - not just of the cats but of their water bowls, food bows, and litter box Rachel went above and beyond by bringing some packages up to our apartment - we live in a 4th floor walk-up so that was totally appreciated I have pretty bad anxiety so travel has always been tough because I worry about everything going wrong while I'm gone but that is all out the window because now we've found Chicago Pet Sitters. Not sure how we've survived without them before. A+. 5 stars. 100% recommend.

We have always had amazing dog walkers and I have written multiple positive reviews. Kellyn, Leia's current walker, is so amazing too ! I can't say enough wonderful things about her.

Our son even calls her Leia's best friend! Kellyn even filled in and checked in on our 13 yo cat Archie while we were on vacation recently! She does it all!! Many thank to Kellyn and the Chicago Pet Sitters Team for taking such good care of our girl, Leia and kitty, Archie.

(we were lucky enough to get nearly a month of puppy leave.) It was hard finding someone we felt we could trust, but Jack and his crew came highly recommended from my best friend. And sure enough, as soon as I met Jack I knew he was the one for us. We work in social media so we have weird hours and our schedules change day to day. Jack is always flexible and incredibly accommodating. We literally couldn't raise Theo without him and his team. A BIG plus for us is that Jack and co. only take one dog out at a time, so I know that Theo is safe and getting one on one attention. I know "wag" is a thing, but I see those walkers with 4 dogs at a time and I shudder. What if one dog turns on the other? Also, we love that a quick text and picture is standard and included in the incredibly reasonable pricing. Spencer seems to be the walker who takes Theo out the most, and his pictures are always amazing. We cannot thank this crew enough for taking care of our little guy. It's such a relief knowing we have them in our lives.

I'm what you call a "helicopter dog mom", I had taken all my dogs to one groomer that I knew personally so switching to an unknown is a big deal. Mo could not have been better for my dog.

By the time I came to pick her up, she didn't want to leave! Very thankful for the time and energy Mo put in to making my girl feel her best.

Four years ago, Miranda killed my dog. It was not intentional but it was negligent. I avoided…read morewriting a review because I didn't want to write it from a place of anger but four years later I think about this everyday and I will never get over it. I feel that it's unfair to not share my experience with others so they can make their own choices. I had 2 dogs and one was a very selective dog, meaning he didn't get along with all dogs he met. Miranda was referred to us by a friend whose dog had similar issues. When we met Miranda to see her facility, I asked her if she would be cresting the dogs when she left the building. (I asked this for a reason) she told me that if they were not crated at home, she would not crate them and they could just stay in her living space. It turns out that Miranda was crating my dogs together when she left them and that is ultimately what led to my dogs death. My selective dog could not be crated with any other dogs. If he was and anything triggered him, he would redirect onto another dog in his crate, even his brother and they would fight. This happened so Miranda came home and found that my dogs had a fight in their crate. She took the selective dog, Carson out to bathe him and ultimately left him unattended in the sink, tethered to the wall. He then tried to jump out of the sink and you can imagine the rest. We left for the weekend with 2 dogs and came back having only one.
