OUG! South Loop & Hyde Park Celebrates Awesome Pet Sitter, Aya!

Many of you know her! She is a dog walking, kitty scratching, house sitting extraordinaire!

We just celebrated our second year anniversary with this fantastic lady on our staff. I know I speak for everyone when I say THANK YOU for these incredible two years!

Meet South Loop & Hyde Park’s Blind Pup Pal, Mr. Flik!

Mr. Flik, one of our newest buddies in the South Loop & Hyde Park neighborhood, is a blind pup but the most courageous explorer we’ve ever met! We are so lucky to be the Clark to this Captain Lewis of a little peanut!

Flik is like a mini-navigator although he cannot see. Remember the games you used to play where someone would give instructions to their partner who wasn’t able to see? That’s what we do with him! We tell him when to turn, what’s coming toward him, and lead him to his potty destination.

If that weren’t fun enough, we get to see the faces of the passerby as we say, “Flik, you are approaching mulch.” It’s pretty awesome in a very ridiculous way. Our gang has shared stories about our time with him and all of them end in fits of laughter!

Welcome to the Pack, Flik!

South Loop & Hyde Park’s new Pack Leader, Hannah, joined us at the start of the New Year. She brings with her some serious love for pups, kitties, and all pets furry! She also brings her best bud: a cute black pug, Figgins! Stay tuned as we share more about our new Pack Leader, but in the meantime, here’s a photo of Figgins hard at work in our office!

Where in the World is your Top Dog?

It has arrived!!! Watch out for your first peek at the new OUG! South Loop – Hyde Park mobile! Make sure to wave and tell the pups to give us a nice big woof if you see us driving by.

BONUS! The first Pet Parent to find us gets two free visits just for keeping those eyes peeled. Just let us know what day, time, and closest intersection or retail location we were near.

Happy Hunting!

Best of OUG! Top Dog Halloween Costumes: South Loop Edition! [PHOTOS]

Halloween is a pretty great holiday to share with your pet. Not only does every pup’s favorite word occur within its most popular exclamation, “trick or treat,” it is a day (…or week…or entire month) where a furry body running around in a little hot dog suit or carrying out an entire neighborhood watch shift, a.k.a. walk, wearing a skeleton outfit is not considered absurd.

Meet a few of our South Loop pet pals who are donning their best dog (and cat!) Halloween costumes in the spirit of the spooky!

Cloe: Initiate superhero face.
