Dominique can care for

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs

Availability

I work full-time in clinical research, so my availability is strongest in the evenings, on weekends, and during holidays — which honestly lines up perfectly with when most pet owners need coverage most. I’m a planner by nature, so once we’re booked, you can count on me to show up exactly when I say I will, every time.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s comfort comes first, always. I take time to let animals warm up to me on their own terms before jumping into care. I treat your home with the same respect I’d want shown to mine, and I follow your routines closely so your pet barely notices you’re gone. I’m experienced with fenced yards, crating, leash safety, and administering medications carefully and on schedule.

Information Dominique H. would like to know about your pet

Before your first booking, I’d love to know your pet’s daily routine; feeding times, sleep schedule, favorite toys, and preferred walk routes. Please share any behavioral quirks, anxieties, or triggers, and any medications with dosage instructions. The more I know upfront, the more seamless the care. No detail is too small, this is your pet we’re talking about.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

A typical day

Every dog gets a day tailored to them. High-energy pups get real fetch sessions, long exploratory walks, and playtime with their favorite toys. Mellow or senior dogs get gentle strolls, calm company, and plenty of cozy cuddle time. I follow your pet’s lead, because the best day for them is one that feels completely normal, just with someone who genuinely enjoys every minute of it.

Pet care experience

There's something special about coming home. Hi, I'm Dominique! A Milwaukee native, animal lover since before I could spell it, and someone who has genuinely built his life around caring for the fur babies that make our lives fuller. I spent several years in New Orleans, soaking in a city I loved, but Milwaukee has always been home. And home is where I want to pour my energy. During the week, I work in clinical research. It's meaningful, detail-oriented work and those same qualities follow me everywhere, including how I care for your pets. I don't cut corners. I pay attention. I show up. I've cared for dogs of all ages and personalities: the ones who pull on the leash, the ones who need coaxing, the seniors who move a little slower but still deserve the world, and the special-needs pups who just need someone patient enough to meet them where they are. I'm experienced with crating, medication administration, multi-pet homes, and dogs who need a little extra love and reassurance. What I offer: 🐕 Overnight house sitting — your home stays lived-in, your dog stays comfortable 🐕 Dog walking — real walks, not rushed ones 🐕 Drop-in visits — consistent, attentive, and always with a photo update 🐕 Senior & special-needs care — my specialty and my passion 🐕 Medication administration — handled with care and precision I know what it means to hand someone your keys and trust them with your pet. I've been on that side of it too. That's exactly why I make communication and reliability non-negotiable. If you're looking for someone who will love your dog like their own while you're away, I think we'll get along just fine. I'd love to meet you. 🐾

Dominique was wonderful with my Stinky! Stinky immediately loved him. Dominique was very attentive to Stinky’s needs. He was walked, fed, given water and played with. I will continue to ask Dominique for his valuable assistance!

We feel very lucky to have found Dominique! Our pups and home were so well cared for while we were out of the country for over a week.
