Doggy Detail

Doggy Detail is a pet service company offering dog waste removal from yards, along with dog walking, dog sitting, cat sitting and Visit n' Play visits. Yard cleaning is the core of the business, and the company says it cleans each yard thoroughly and consistently, taking the waste away rather than leaving it in your trash cans. Brian and Mike bought the business in 2013, and it was established in 2004.

No long-term contracts are required, so a customer can book a single visit or a recurring schedule. Payments can be made through the website or set up for automatic billing. Staff are trained to pet industry standards and undergo background checks. The office is in Palatine, and the company serves a long list of suburbs across the northwest Chicago area.
