Your Trusted Partner for Pet Care in Chicago
Valerie's Pet Service was founded in 1996 out of a personal need for trustworthy pet care. After struggling to find a facility where I felt comfortable leaving my dog Wellington, I established this business to operate at my exacting standards. With over 22 years of experience, we specialize in dog walking, cat care, boarding, and daycare services, prioritizing individualized attention and a safe, nurturing environment. Our small group sizes ensure each pet receives the one-on-one time they deserve, mirroring the care they receive at home.Our team of dedicated professionals, some with over a decade of experience, shares my commitment to integrity, consistency, and compassion. Clients consistently praise our ability to adapt care to pets' evolving needs, from puppies to seniors, and our long-standing relationships with families who trust us with their beloved animals. We are proud to be recommended by veterinarians and chosen through referrals, reflecting our reputation for excellence and reliability in Chicago's pet care community.
