ABOUT USThe Standards
Are Higher Here
We want to offer your pets compassionate and nurturing care by providing services that are safe and to give our human clients peace of mind.
WHAT WE STAND FORWe are committed to providing individual care and quality time.
I had to leave my country in April of 2014 to live in the United States, back then it was only me with a boring Bachelor degree against the world. During my first year here, I had so many jobs but nothing made me truly happy, I started considering getting back to my career but by that time I was sure that was not what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I had always been fascinated with animals in general, and always wanted to work with animals but never had the opportunity so I thought that was the moment and place to try it! After working for big companies for a while, I made the best decision ever! Starting my own business and that’s exactly what happened. I’ve dedicated the last 4 years to educate myself to provide my clients with the best pet care experience. I opened my first business in New Jersey and grew it to the point that I successfully sold it when I decided to move to Chicago, now I am the proud owner of Chicawoof! and I am so happy to be one of the lucky ones that can do what they love.
