Best Pet Store in Chicago

by chibeck at Citysearch

I strongly disagree with Babo (below), and based on the fact that he's the only bad review, I think it's safe to say he was having a bad day and decided to formally blame someone else for it!

We live in the South Loop, but choose to go to Wicker Park just for Doggy Style.

They are really awesome people who love animals and are really earnest about animal health above all else. This is a store who will sell you what's BEST for your pet, not what's most expensive.

They always have great new products for our Yorkie, and know her by name when she comes in. LOVE this place!

• Pros: Knowledge, helpfulness, positive attitude

Customer Service Lacking

by Babo at Citysearch

I recently went to the Doggy Style Pet Shop to wash my dog and came across a manager that new absolutely nothing about customer service. I have three Burnese Mountain Dogs and one English BullDog and needless to say I used to frequent this place almost weekly to buy their organic food.

Unlike a professional pet washing facility on State street this place offers the washing tubs low to the ground that after 30 minutes of washing your dog your back will give out. The watered down shampoo and conditioner they provide that is included in your fee comes in a small tube and is enough to wash a small toy poodle. Of course there is a charge for anything additional. Oh please don't use but one towel.

There is only meter parking available near their store and after 45 minutes of trying to wash my dog I realized I needed to add quarters to my meter. After finding out the store had absolutely no quarters I went next door and stood in line to get change. When I returned I was told by the manager I could not leave my dog tied up in the wash tub and they could not be responsible to watch her. She told me " In the future you should make better plans"

That comment alone is probably why they did not have $.25 in their cash register. The better plans I will make, is to go to the Dog wash facility on State Street in Lincoln Park. Its $4.00 cheaper they provide you with all the soap, conditioner, and other needs you may have and they are even nice to you. I think they also like pets!!

Showing Lots & Lots of Love

If you have a dog you cherish as much as I do then put Doggy Style at the top of your list.. I rate them a 10 I just learned they are having another rescue adoption day on Saturday. This is a boutique just busting with great natural food choices. Nothing but the best brands. Very classy garments, coats, collars and leashes. The staff is 100% into loving my pet just as I do. The store is bright open and cheerful, and I feel all the right vibes whether pooch and I are picking out some treats or doing a regular self wash in Doggy Style?s big clean spa. No waiting no cleanup . Doggy and I think this is pretty fantastic

• Pros: They love pets. Nothing but the best products, awesome commitment to adoption events
