We consider a chemotaxis system with singular sensitivity and logistic-type source: $u_t = \Delta u-\chi\nabla\cdot(\frac{u}{v}\nabla v)+ru-\mu u^k$, $v_t = \epsilon\Delta v-v+u$ in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with $\chi,r,\mu,\epsilon>0$, $k>1$ and $n\ge 2$. It is proved that the system possesses a globally bounded classical solution when $\epsilon+\chi<1$. This shows that the diffusive coefficient $\epsilon$ of the chemical substance $v$ properly small benefits the global boundedness of solutions, without the restriction on the dampening exponent $k>1$ in logistic source.
