PupStars was established in 2006 as a home-based dog walking company which grew to daycare, boarding, grooming and more requiring us to open our first brick and mortar location.

We also offer shuttle services and will even deliver pet supplies when dropping off your pup. At PupStars our goal is to do what is best for the pet even if that means turning a pup away if it isn’t a good fit. We will always do our best to make recommendations best suited for your pet.
We love what we do and it shows We care, We’re there, No worries!

Fit Dog Chicago
Fit Dog Chicago was established by Saul Ayala in 2005. Saul started as a dog walker for the neighborhood dogs in Logan Square where he was born and raised. As the pack grew and the dogs needed more exercise, Fit Dog evolved into play groups at the park and beach. Saul was excitedly overwhelmed with referrals from his clients and needed more space, so he opened his first daycare at 1526 N. Throop St. in 2006. Fit Dog has grown organically from the beginning until now with referrals from our amazing customers. Fit Dog has evolved into a Dog Daycare with two locations serving the Chicagoland area. Fit Dog is a family-owned business proudly owned by Saul and Emily Ayala. Services include dog daycare, boarding, transportation and baths.
