LeAnna and LaVonne have gone out of their way to be flexible and work with our schedule. Each day they send us updates on our boy's peeing, pooping, behavior around other dogs and people, as well as sweet photos. We just happened to see our walker, LaVonne, on the street last week and our boy was so excited to see her. That's the true mark of a job well done. She is loving but firm...exactly what German Shepherds need.

I have been using Hyde Park Bark as a cat sitting service for more than two years while traveling…read moreout of town. After four scheduled cat sitting services (for 1-2 weeks at a time), I have been thoroughly pleased with ALL of their employees, the high level of communication, the friendliness and the reliability! I am so grateful that they are in Hyde Park and a local business. A few things I've noticed: 1) I get updates with photos and a narrative for every visit. I usually schedule 2 visits every day that I'm gone. 2) No matter which employee visits, I understand from the narrative report that they have read the instructions, and the comments that I've left. For example, this summer, the temperature reached 100 degrees outside, but I had forgotten to turn on the A/C. After leaving a comment to ask that it be put on energy save an set to 72, the next sitter did just that, and sent me photos to verify the settings. This put me completely at ease while being away during a dangerous heatwave. 3) My cats need medication and a special feeding schedule; my instructions are followed and this also helps me feel at ease that the kitties are fine for extended absences. 4) If I need to extend my trip, the online scheduling system is easy to update and I know that I won't have to scramble to find an alternative. The onboarding process if you are a new client is not something that can be done at the last minute; I signed up before I knew I would have a trip planned, but then once the consult was done, it has been completely a breeze to sign up for vacation house sitting appointments. I have been and continue to be very pleased with the services, care, and convenience of Hyde Park Bark!

Hyde Park Animal Hosp medicated her without my permission. Wanted to leave her overnight for observation- even though- NO ONE IS THERE OVERNIGHT. SO WHO WOULD OBSERVE HER.

UPDATED REVIEW I…read morefeel for Patricia L., and empathize. After we moved our kitty to another vet (Metropolitan Veterinary Center, 15th and Michigan) in July 2024, we found out the poor creature had very bad kidney stones and possible diabetes. As much as Dr Jeremy Williams examined her, he NEVER said anything to the effect that we should take her for kidney screening after she had multiple UTIs. We took urinalysis tests and other screenings. We had to switch her to kidney food by Hill's Science at some point, and control her blood sugar. In July of THIS year she became sick again with an infection, and the emergency vet did a lot of VERY expensive tests and found SO many things we did not find, not even the 'new' vet! I think the ER doc wondered what the old vet was even doing that they didn't find this many problems. I don't think this location nor the Stony Island location has the equipment to find anything serious. We had to put her down as all the problems she had at such an advanced age (15 or so) would have made her quality of life so poor. If we had moved her to the other vet sooner I am 99% sure we would have avoided more pain and discomfort for her. Avoid this place if at all possible, here AND Stony Island. We are hoping their certification becomes revoked!

I only had him for a short piece of time and had necessarily built up a network for him yet, so when my boss sent me on a week long business trip I was freaking out because I hadn't necessarily secured a dog walker or boarding services. I reached out to several places and none of them were able to take my dog on short notice. I did have a conversation with another service that actually excepted my job but last minute totally flaked less than 24 hours before I was due to board my plane!!! I called Aimee in a full on panic! I let her know what was going on and she immediately came over to my house to assess the situation and feasibility of my job. She had several other things going on but due to my circumstance she took my job and executed it flawlessly! My dog was boarded at my home but she came by twice a day to clean his enclosure and take him for walks. She did so as contracted. I have a camera in my basement so I was able to see every time she came over in the exchange and she treated my dog so wonderful!!!! That meant a lot to me. Amy not only save me from a potential disaster but she also gave me the assurance that my pet was taken care of with love.
