Stay at Home Lawyer + Dog Dad

Pet care experience

My fiancée (Jerrilyn Gumila) & I are both attorneys. We live together and we have had dogs since we were born! We have watched many dogs for both family and friends. We have 3 puppies of our own and are huge dog lovers. Our whole world/day to day routine revolves around our 3 fur babies. We love to spoil our pups and would love to spoil yours too! In fact, our dogs love puppachinos so much and always expect them whenever we stop for coffee during a walk. We’d love to take your pup to Starbucks to enjoy one too (with your approval of course)!

Amazing as usual! We are so thankful to have someone like David to trust with our dog when we are out of town! ☺️

They took SUCH great care of Cooper! Coopy usually doesn’t eat his food when he’s staying with someone else but he ate every meal! He got along great with their three lil doggos and now has new friends. Couldn’t recommend David highly enough! He seems very attentive and caring and I got lots of updates. Would definitely book with him again in the future!

Our dog always has a great time with David and his pups! He always sends us tons of photos and updates and we feel great leaving our dog with him. David is our first pick for dog care when we are out of town.

Kevin is a repeat visitor! We never have to worry when we leave him with David and Jerilyn. He is smiling in every pic so ya know he’s having a good time! We feel very lucky to have found such a great sitter who loves Kevin like he’s family.
