Our Story
As a lifelong pet owner and a working professional, I always felt guilty leaving my pets home alone all day with no interaction or exercise. Even when I traveled, it was difficult to find a reliable, trustworthy person to care for my furry companions. There weren’t too many options in the McHenry County area that met my pet care needs. In 2009 I left the corporate world to embark on a new adventure by opening my first pet sitting and dog walking business which has evolved into who we are today. With a lot of sweat, tears, muddy paws and drool, Love Bug Pet Care became a reality and a dream come true.
