This photo was taken on November 1, 2018 - the day I signed the lease on our first, original Ravenswoof location.
Over the last seven years, Ravenswoof became a recognizable name not only in Ravenswood, but throughout Chicago. We truly left our mark - and our legacy on the Chicago grooming industry. And sometimes, even legacies must come to an end.
It is with careful consideration that we announce Ravenswoof will be closing its doors, concluding all grooming and daycare services at our current location effective Thursday, March 14th.
To our loyal clients, some of you have been with us since the very beginning. thank you. Thank you for trusting us with your pets and being part of this journey. We hope we made your days a little easier, your homes a little cleaner, and your dogs and cats a little happier.
Clients will be receiving a detailed email shortly with next steps and transition information. We are working closely with , our neighbors in the pet care community, to keep your pets well cared for during this transition.
Amanda Kalivoda will be joining their grooming team, and we highly recommend their services. Any Rowdy Rascal Playcare transfer will receive 20% off their first daycare package at Urban Pooch! 🐶
I will also be sharing more soon about my next chapter.
From the bottom of my heart- thank you, Ravenswood.
