About this Experience

What You’ll Do

Turn your event into a fully private dog cuddle experience where 8 to 10 affectionate Italian Greyhounds roam freely among your guests for two full hours while professional hosts handle every detail.

  • Meet the Dogs Each session includes 8 to 10 Italian Greyhounds selected for their calm temperament, gentle personalities, and natural comfort around groups. Their size and energy make them approachable for both dog lovers and guests who may be less experienced around animals.

  • Professionally Hosted Experience Two dedicated CuddlePups hosts manage the entire event from setup to wrap-up, including dog rotation, guest flow, and overall coordination so the organizer can actually enjoy the event too.

  • Lounge-Style Setup at Your Venue CuddlePups transforms your space into a cozy dog cuddle lounge with toys, treats, and a thoughtfully designed setup that keeps both guests and dogs comfortable throughout the experience.

  • Photos & Videos Included Hosts capture photos and videos directly on your guests’ phones during the session so everyone leaves with real memories already saved and ready to share.

  • Comfortable Guest Rotation System For larger groups, guests rotate in smaller sets every 10 to 15 minutes to maintain a calm environment and ensure everyone gets quality time with the dogs.

This is a fully managed mobile experience that brings the joy of a private dog cuddle lounge directly to your venue in Chicago.

Why We Love It for Group Events

  • Completely Stress-Free for Organizers The CuddlePups team handles unloading, setup, guest flow, dog management, and cleanup so there’s nothing extra for the host to coordinate.

  • Perfect for Any Celebration Popular for bachelorette parties, birthdays, wellness events, company retreats, and corporate team-building experiences because it feels genuinely memorable and different.

  • Instant Icebreaker Dogs completely shift the social atmosphere of a room. Guests naturally start interacting, laughing, and connecting without needing structured activities.

  • Entirely Private Experience Every booking is exclusive to your group with no shared guests, shared sessions, or outside interruptions.

  • Fun Add-On Options Groups can add a Paw-Secco Toast with the dogs or printed take-home photos for guests for an additional fee.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is CuddlePups?

CuddlePups is Chicago’s first ticketed cuddle and play experience featuring a pack of gentle, socialized Italian Greyhounds. It’s a private, small-group wellness session—great for dates, families, or anyone in need of a serotonin boost after a long day. Our sessions are designed to be calm, cozy, and intentional. Guests enjoy scheduled time with the dogs in a peaceful environment, supported by professional pet caregivers who ensure the well-being of both humans and pups. CuddlePups is something entirely different. Our ticketed cuddle & play sessions are private, small-group events where the focus is on therapeutic, joyful connection with a bonded pack of Italian Greyhounds. Every moment is structured to keep the dogs relaxed and the guest experience special. Science backs up what we all feel instinctively: time with animals reduces stress, lowers blood pressure, and increases feel-good hormones like serotonin. These pups are here to help people slow down, smile more, and feel better. Victoria’s pack of Italian Greyhounds is available with wholesome intent - to help people in need of more love and support in their lives. We also give back with regularly donated tickets to children’s hospitals, senior centers, and more.

How do I get there?

We are located inside Sit Social at 3221 North Clark Street, Chicago, IL 60657 The Belmont red line train stop is a 5-minute walk from us. We highly recommend taking CTA, as parking in the area can be hard to find, especially during summer and Cubs season. Pay to park is available nearby, but not guaranteed, so if driving, please allot an extra 20 minutes for parking.

Can I bring my dog?

As much as we love other doggies, this experience is for humans only. This is for the safety and well-being of your dogs and ours. :)

How old do I have to be to attend?

Our Private Party experiences are available for all guests ages 5+.
