I have been a customer of this exclusive shop for 9 months since suddenly arriving in Chicago in august. my mother was being treated at a hospital, subsequently died. i purchased a very expensive pet bed, in late november or early december. i was told they needed to order the cushion, which without, my dog couldn't even see one the top of the cushions. I was given the run-around for over a month as to why this cushion was so late in being delivered to the store. first it was the order, then it was the truck, and then, i had to leave town in december, and actually been spoke with the owner about maybe working together on a store in New Mexico, so she knew i was going to be gone for quite a while. i even called twice to tell them i would not be home for a while, NOT to sell my cushion, as i couldn't use this expensive bed without a cushion. Upon my return, i was having someone pick it up for me, only to be told they sold it- the manager, didn't know this, and asked me what i wanted to do!! nobody called me, to say they had sold it, did i want another asap, or to see if i was really not coming back. no phone calls were made. But the nerve of the owner, Marcia, to take the phone from her manager and proceed to shout and scream at me, admit that a customer with money stood in front of her, and wanted to uy the pad, so she sold it!! this was totally un-acceptable. then she's screaming that i was rude, and that i didn't call! I spoke to her each time, but she's always so damn rude and in a rush when i call, that she doesn't even remember talking to me! but to scream at me, and hang up, now leaving me with no mattress, and a $250 bed, that my dog cannot even use. they refused to take it back, as it was used. but its been leaning against a wall, since it has no cushion and he sits on the hard floor.

Let me tell you a little bit about me experience. When we walked in we were greeted by a customer not even the worked,. We went there for a leash and collar for my bully. It was our first time in the store and i heard great things about the place so we went on a last minute shopping for out dog. Not on time did the lady help us. Not one time did she give an honest opinion besides "it fits great." We would ask do you have other styles and she would simply say "what there is what we have."

I've been wanting to go here for a while(2 month attempt). I tried to get information about the store, because hours vary. I saw the owner receiving a shipment and inquired about her merchandise. She was a bit busy in her defense, but instead of giving me any attention, I felt like a burden. I said, "Excuse me, is your product online only. She said No, it's a retail store." I then said Well ive been trying to come here. Her response was well im busy getting my inventory now, and walks away. I know this seems petty, but if you want patrons, we need information, even if it's brief. All she had to say is you have to go online to my website." I'll be with you in a minute, etc. Most importantly, just take a second to respond to the inquiry. Instead, her actions seemed to give off . Why are you bothering me?I try to support small businesses, but a small transaction like this makes it frustrating. By the way coffee shop in this building is awesome , with best customer service.

We came to pay a visit for my dog's upcoming birthday celebration after a friend recommended this store. I live in the suburbs but the drive was definitely worth it! The owner was so kind and polite, she treated us to some samples of their famous empanadas for my two fur babies and was very kind in explaining the ingredients in the baked goods. We picked up a birthday cake and some of those delicious empanadas! Service was very kind, and professional. Marcia is passionate about baking and animals and she did a great combining those two. Definitely visit this store for some awesome pet accessories as well- they have a lot of cool unique items! The only reason it is not 5 stars is the parking was a tiny bit challenging around there! But otherwise amazing!

Boutique pet store catering mostly to dogs but with cat supplies as well. There is a resident(?) Scottie there that's adorable. Rather pricey, but a very high quality selection of food. Could use wider variety of cat food (but it is a dog store!) Don't come here if you want Purina or Nutro. I think cheapest brand was "Call of the Wild" for cat food. They have a very interesting selection of fancy accessories for your dog and cat, so if you're looking to treat your pet, this is the place! Owner is helpful and friendly. Make sure you sign up if there's a reward program for your food purchases. This business is nestled right by the 606 in the same building as an archery range and another business. Parking on site in a lot off Kimball.

I was told about this place from a family member about how they make cakes for dogs. Together with family, we went to visit the place because we were actually looking for a cake for our dog Lucky who turned 14 years old today. It was a nice place to visit. There were many nice things for both dogs and cats, and the cakes were so cute. They had cookies, cupcakes and different size cakes. The one cake I bought for my dog was made of peanut butter. Marcia was there to help us pick a cake for our dog and she was professional and informative about her products. Our dog Lucky was so surprised on how yummy it was that it will be a birthday he will never forget.

Wow this location has the worst customer service every. I’ve never been the this place but I found them online and had a couple questions about there cakes for my boys 1st Birthday so of course this my 1st time even looking into it so I called the store an a woman picked up she told me to go online and get an idea of what I would like and call back so I did just that but still had a few questions because I have dogs with sensitivity issues so I called back as she said to do only for her to hang up and my face and now not answering the phone because I asked 1 question just rude and no I will never call back I’ll take my service elsewhere

Very nice pet store with a focus on funds and cats, offering a plethora of unique items with transcend the cheap, poorly manufactured countertops at big box retailers selling pet supplies. Perfect example being a cat scratcher that actually looks very cool and like decorative are. The selection of foods, both canned and packaged, wet and dry; is beyond impressive. They're involved locally with many initiatives helping animals and offer sitting services. If your a person who considers a pet as an extension of you're family, then this is the pet store you've been looking for!

Checked this spot out yesterday. Parking in their lot at certain times of the day can be difficult but were isn't parking difficult in Chicago? Was greeted by a nice employee who helped me find what I needed and dhe gave my doggo some treatos. The store itself had a good array of items and dog accessories, beds , leashes, bowls etc etc. But the reason this place deserved 5 stars was the employee and how sweet she was. Didn't catch her name as we only talked about Frank my dog, but shes probaly the only employee from Portugal! Thanks again.

Never really one to share negative reviews, but I walked in and was extremely polite and asked what was recommended for my dog to eat because he was eating a lot of grass (usually means something is up with their tummy or they’re lacking in something) The owner just said she has no idea and walked away from us back to the front of the store. I was hoping for some recommendations or follow up questions, but that wasn’t the case. I really wanted to like this place but unfortunately will not be back due to lack of customer service.

This place is amazing. My rescue dog Noodles had a reunion with 10 of her littermates and her mama for their 1 year old birthday. We ordered a birthday cake here in advance, and it was lovely working with the owner Marcia. She uses all organic ingredients and even made the cake bigger to make sure there was enough for our large group of pups. The store is well-stocked with a variety of high quality food, chews, toys, pet clothing, and baked goodies. We will definitely be back!

We found this place being new to town from the locate supplier search from the brand of dog food we feed our fur baby. This place is amazing and has all kinds of great products for your pup. For exactly the food we needed along with some other good quality chew things and treats. The lady was soo friendly and helpful we felt welcomed to our new city. This is a great stop for anyone needing any supplies for their pets.

I’ve been coming here for years since I moved in. They have the products and knowledge that a trained human dietitian/herbalist like myself trusts. When I really let known how upset I was over my cat’s lymphoma prognosis. She brought her cat out to let me vent my feelings to her kitty. The cute thing cooed like an owl the whole time and really cheered me up. She gave me some products that I’m sure will help.

We got our dog Rye Bread a little birthday cake from For Dog's Sake earlier this month, and he absolutely loved it! We also picked up an adorable bowtie for him while we were there. The owner kindly helped us choose the best cake for our dog, gave him lots of pets and treats, and even gave us a free candle for his little cake. We will definitely return! Thank you!

Marcia, the owner, is keeping an incredible selection of healthy food! I needed something very specific for my cat and she not only had it, but introduced me to similar other brands that I didn’t know. She also helped me finding a good holistic vet, and I can tell she really dedicated her life to animals. Such amazing experience, and incredible human being.

Went in to get a cake, i just wanted a simple cake anything that they had ready was perfectly fine. She went on about placing an order and emailing them, the owner was absolutely RUDE, it seems like other people have had similar experiences. Sad that I tried to support a local business and their lack minimum respect for their clientele drove me right out.

What a gem! Marcia and her beautiful store are both a gift to the neighborhood and a 'candyland' for my pooch! This shop is a destination worth the trip! Product selection is amazing when you're seeking that perfect food, perfect treat, perfect bed, perfect collar for your perfect fur baby! How did I not know of this sooner!?! Exceptional in every way!

Owner and staff are super helpful. The products are great as we know we're giving our dog the best. Her fur is always shiny and soft because of good nutrition. It's great to support a small business that cares about their customers and their pets. We shop here almost exclusively for our dog. Only time we've had to go elsewhere was for a lifejacket.

Fun and caring business owner who does exhaustive research into the products she stocks and recommends, and puts great effort into making her store an inviting local spot. Support this business if you care about people with souls and not just MegaCorps mailing everything to minimize your contact with living, thinking humans.

I love this store and so thankful for Marcia's help over the last two years. They stock many specialty items and even have a pet bakery! My hound was always excited to go in for a tasty treat and head scratch. You won't find better deals at Krisers or another comparable pet store. Definitely check it out!

I can't say enough warm and genuine words about this place and the owner. They always make you feel home. The approach to animals is holistic, the prices are reasonable, the level of customer service is outstanding! I only wish it would be next door to me, instead of 25 min drive …

What an amazing store! All products top quality, beautiful toys and clothes. The owner is absolutely knowledgeable and a pleasure to chat! I am so happy to have found this cute store and I will certainly keep coming back. The dog birthday cake was a success in our fury party!!!

Very lucky to have found this place. Incredibly unique selection of accessories, foods, and other items. Owner is so very friendly and welcoming. I’ve never seen the quality and selection of dog collars and leads anywhere in the city. This is going to be our go-to from now on!

Marcia is a true expert in the field. My Portuguese Waterdog lived to 16.5 because of the nutrition that For Dog’s Sake provided. I have a new pup now 5 years later and the selection and service brought me back again! Highly recommend for premium exceptional products!

Absolutely incredible owner and store. I will not shop at a big change of pet stores because of the diligence and intentionally this owner has with all of her clients. She is so sweet! My dog loves it here and I will her shopping only here. Incredible small business!

Amazing! I came in to find treats and help with my senior dog's anxiety. The owner was wonderful she was so knowledgeable. Gave treats to my pup and let her try some things. She also helped me find a solution that would help her. Wonderful experience.

We love For Dog’s Sake! We have 3 big American Bulldogs and they eat a lot of food and love to chew. The owner is always helpful with questions about food or bone sizes. I also love that the only things they carry here are really quality ingredients.

Adorable store, items, service! Great spot. They have a good selection of baked goods as well. Bought the cutest cake for my baby girls birthday this weekend can't wait to give it to her and her doggie friends! …

I called to place an order and the owner was very rude. But i still placed an order and asked to get HAPPY BIRTHDAY on the cake and she started complaining how she is working 14 hour days. I hung up and took my business else where.

Came here in hopes of buying a birthday cake for my pup! From the time I called in to the time I stepped in customer service was exceptional! Great experience, I’ll make sure now that when I visit Chicago I stop here for my pup!

Staff is knowledgeable, helpful and easy to locate. I have cats and despite the name of the establishment they were extremely helpful and even turn me on to new sources of nutrition without being pushy or condescending

This place is amazing. The people who work there are incredibly informative and beyond kind and helpful. If you haven't been here, I strongly urge you to go and try them out. It'll be a game changer for your family!

Horrible experience DO NOT GO THERE. The owner is so paranoid of Covid. If you stay there more then 10mins she will kick you out. Pls read the reviews in Yelp other customers have been kicked out or rushed out

20+ years ago it was my favorite place. But the times are different and things have changed. Marcia is a great woman, very knowledgeable and very sweet. unfortunately, we all have bad days. Good luck Marcia.

Purchased my dog's birthday cake from here and it is adorable! Pleased to learn that it was made with the finest ingredients. Lots of cute toys and accessories, too. Will definitely come back in the future!

I can always count on them for the best dog food and supplies on the market. Lovely shop that I have used for 20 years. My new pit bull pups LOVE their yummy salmon Taste of the Wild dog food.

Called to ask about a product and the woman who answered was rude. If they're like that over the phone, I can't imagine in person. I'll drive a little further and take my business elsewhere!

Amazing store! They have so many items, you could shop for an hour! Marcia (the owner) was very friendly and knew her selection well. I will be frequenting this store from now on.

The VERY BEST in your pets needs can be found here! Holistic treatments, raw dog food as well as top quality can in Kibble foods. The staff is very helpful in all you could need!

Every year we come here to get our special boy his birthday cake and treats. The space is spacious and so many options. Marcia is really helpful and answers all our questions.

Stop in to get my dog a cake , I remember the building use to be a factory. super kool inside alot of stuff, if your looking for a cake order online I dog loved it …

The place to go for quality products, knowledgeable staff, and a (very kind) small business, woman owned. Our pup especially loves the raw knuckles and birthday cakes.

Best pet boutique in Chicago. Beautiful selection of products and outstanding customer service. I’m so happy I found this gem, it’s my new go to spot for my 3 dogs!!!

Love the welcoming and greeting as you walk in outstanding organization and clean place . And all the help with finding the best food for our furbabies …

Wonderful shop with unique, quality products, and superb customer service. Dogs LOVE their birthday cakes and treats from here! They couldn’t get enough!

Have been going to 4DS for 15 years...no where else comes close in the city or burbs. If you're looking for the best for your pup....look no further!

I was able to get last minute cakes for my pops birthday. The owner was there and she was so nice and very helpful. Definitely recommend this place.

For Dogs Sake is a wonderful local shop!! Pricing is good & the service is great! Marcia is so helpful and very knowledgeable!! Highly recommended!

Marcia is SOOO AMAZINGGGGGGG! She gave me and my pup amazing information on my dog nutrition. Plus it smell so amazing in here! Highly recommend.

The only place we get supplies for our two dogs and two cats. The owner has deep knowledge of homeopathic remedies for most common health issues.

Marcia is the best! She’s incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. For Dogs Sake is definitely the best pet store in Chicago. Nala loved her cake

She is a sweetheart. I hope more people discover how wonderful her work is. We get a cake for our dogs' birthdays each year and they love it !

Been coming here for 5 years.. since I moved to Humboldt this has been a go-to pet store.. do your research on food.. it's all high quality..

Great pet store, I primarily go there for their raw dog food. They also have a great selection on toys, bones, and dog shampoo & conditioner

I have been going to For Dog's Sake for 15 years. They have a great selection of healthy pet food, treats, and caring knowledge staff.

Marcia is a very kind person with great advice and I’m always impressed by the selection of products. Great place for Raw feeders.

One of my favorite pet shops in the city! I look forward to go back so I can have conversations with the owner...she is awesome!!

My new FAVORITE store! Wonderful products, the owner is friendly & knowledgeable and a Dog Mom! This shop is truly a gem!

Great service, health conscious foods, treats, dog shampoo, and other products and I love their frequent buyers program!

Had a great visit here! Brought my dog in and picked out treats and a toy. Great selection and the owner was a delight!

Thank you for helping make one of Logan's last days with us special with a picnic of empanadas and cake. He loved it!

For Dogs Sake has been a wonderful help as we deal with trying to keep an aging, picky-eater of a pup happy and fed.

Super friendly owner. Looked up my dogs food & took care of me personally. She did curbside pick up when needed too.

The owner is always so friendly and they carry our dogs food, Fromm. They have cute dog birthday cakes too! …

A very cool, hidden supply shop with almost a warehouse type feel. Wide array of pet food and supplies, very wide.

Nice variety of specialized pet supplies, they have a couple of cats living there and there are always dogs about.

Marcie is the nicest, most caring, lady I have ever met. She will make sure you get the best product for your pet!

Quality pet food store in my neighborhood and she carries all the best products. Great spot and friendly staff.

Amazing, personalized service and knowledgeable owner. I love supporting small local businesses like this one.

They have a great selection of healthy food and treats for our pups. Everyone there is wonderful and helpful.

Amazing place for your pet needs. They have a large selection of healthy food and treats for dogs and cats.

Absolutely love this place. They gave me great advice on foods and joint supplements. Couldn't be happier.

Super cute. Went there to pick up a cake for my dogs 1st birthday, and was very happy with the results

Best selection of high end furnishings for pets in the Midwest. Unparalleled in quality and variety.

What a great shop! Tiffany was super helpful and answered all my questions. Definitely coming back.

I tell everyone with a dog or cat to go here. I will not buy dog food or treats from anywhere else.

The price of their cakes are ridiculously high for their size. Also not the best customer service.

One of the nicest pet shops I've ever seen. And very friendly ownership. Will be back many times.

Loved the cake for our pup! Great shop, lots of things for both cats and dogs. Love their items!

This is the best pet food shop in the neighborhood maybe even the city. Support local business'

Very knowledgeable and friendly people with high quality foods and goods for your dog or cat.

Will miss this brick and mortar store! Looking forward to the online shop continuing though!

Pleasant experience. Very friendly, super helpful. Went for a dog cake for my pup …

Marcia was incredibly nice and my dog loved the birthday cake. I'll definitely be back

Owner is very friendly and prices are reasonable! love love love 11/10 …
