There’s Still Time! Holiday Shopping for Pet Gifts in Chicago

The holiday season is a wonderful time to show your floofins how much you care. If you’re in Chicago and looking to spoil your pets with special gifts, you’re in luck! The city is home to lots of pet supply shops that offer unique and high-quality products. Because they are local, there’s still time to pick something up before Christmas or Hanukkah. Here’s our guide to holiday shopping for pet gifts in Chicago.

Chicago’s Top Pet Supply Shops & Boutiques

Two Bostons

Located in Naperville but with a strong online presence, Two Bostons is a beloved destination for pet parents. This store offers an extensive selection of toys, treats, and accessories that cater to both dogs and cats. During the holiday season, you can find festive items like Christmas-themed toys and gourmet treats that make perfect gifts. They also have a rewards program, so you can earn points while shopping for your pets! Be sure to check out their gift cards, which make excellent presents for fellow pet lovers.

Something I love about Two Bostons is that their Founder, AdreAnne, curates gift-specific collections to help you find the perfect gift for the pets and pet lovers in your life – no matter the occasion. Plus, they make it easy with in-store and curbside pick-up.

Happy Dog Barkery

If you’re looking for something special, Happy Dog Barkery in Downers Grove is the place to go. This bakery specializes in delicious, all-natural treats and custom cakes for dogs. Their holiday offerings include festive cakes and cookies that will make your pup’s tail wag with joy. The friendly staff is always ready to help you choose the perfect goodies for your furry friends or even help you create a custom cake for a special occasion. My girls had a birthday cake from Happy Dog Barkery earlier this year and they give their goodies eight paws up!

Check out their holiday-themed barkery boxes, which they ship all over the US if you have a pet friend somewhere outside Chicagoland.

The Urban Mutt

The Urban Mutt, with locations in Brookfield and La Grange, is known for its curated selection of high-quality pet products. From stylish collars and leashes to eco-friendly toys, The Urban Mutt has something for every pet. They focus on providing products that are not only functional but also fashionable. Their knowledgeable staff can assist you in finding the perfect gift that suits your pet’s personality and needs. Plus, they deliver!

Ruff Life

For those seeking unique gifts, Ruff Life in Elmburst offers an array of pet products for the most spoiled pets in Chicago. This boutique prides itself on carrying items that reflect the latest trends in pet fashion and wellness. From top food brands to interactive toys, Ruff Life ensures your pets will be happy and entertained this holiday season. Their selection of gourmet treats also makes great stocking stuffers!

Bring your pet along and take a photo in Ruff LIfe’s selfie station, which is decorated with lots of fun colors and holiday cheer.

Holiday Markets Around Chicago

Don’t forget about local holiday markets, some of which go through December 24th and beyond! Many events around Chicago feature local vendors selling handmade pet products, treats, and accessories. These markets provide an excellent opportunity to find unique gifts while supporting local artisans.

As a reminder, please ensure you gift your pets species-appropriate toys. While kid toys can appear to be a good choice for pets, they can pose choking and intestinal issues when not designed for cats and/or dogs.

Chicago’s Best Pet Care

If buying things isn’t your speed, consider scheduling your pet for one-on-one playtime with their friends here at Floofins & Co. We would be delighted to come over and walk your dog, play fetch, engage your cat in a rigorous wand session, and more.

While we’re there, we can scoop litter boxes, wash pet bowls, whatever you request. That way, the gift of our services isn’t just for your pet(s), it’s for you too!

This holiday season, make your floofins feel extra special by shopping locally. Remember that thoughtful gifts not only bring joy to your pets but also strengthen the bond you share with them. And, booking dog walks and cat sits with us will brighten their days beyond the holiday season!
