PetSmart

Alison and Andy, reptile enthusiasts, founded Curious Creatures LLC. While Alison was attracted by snakes as a child, Andy was a fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. When they met and eventually moved in together, their love for reptiles grew stronger. Andy and Alison struggled to locate consistent feeders and supplies in Chicago as their snake, lizard, and turtle collection grew.

Riley was my first love as an adult. My mother contacted me one day to tell me that a coworker had saved a puppy from being drowned by a farmer. "Would I still like a dog?"

Dog boutique that sells dog food, collars, and clothes as well as boarding and grooming.

Pet food, toys, and accessories retailer that also provides grooming services.

 Walking along the lakefront is one of our favorite pastimes. On our hikes, we noted that the Uptown neighborhood lacked a suitable location to stop for sweets, and thus a dream was born.

Pet food, toys, beds, and pet technology goods, as well as medication, are all available through this chain.
