Former VET TECH who loves animals!
Pet care experience
Safe and loving environment NORTHRIDGE/DAYTON AREA I do require a meet with your dog prior to any board at least 2 weeks in advance. I do not accept dogs over 85 lbs. Due to the new and highly contagious dog virus out I require your dog to be quarantined at home for a minimum of 14 days prior to any board or daycare. This means NO dog parks, groomers, no large daycare or Kennels no training classes of any sort or dog shows. This helps ensure the safety of all dogs in my care including my own. I and a former vet tech and have been a volunteer at the Ohio Wildlife center in Columbus. I am experienced personally with large dogs, cats of my own, boarders and am experienced in administering medication as required. When you need boarding I can board your dog here. The only thing I require if requesting boarding here is confirmation from a vet that your pet is vaccinated , monthly flea treated and disease free as to protect my own animals. I am very comfortable around all animals and have a large fenced in yard. I am married to a retired Attorney, in excellent standing and references with the Columbus Bar Association. We both work in the home so your pet will have constant supervision and playtime About this sitter: I am a former vet tech and have been a volunteer at the Ohio Wildlife center in Columbus.

If you require "boarding" while away I am also open to bringing your pet to my home while you are away, The only thing I require if requesting boarding here is confirmation from a vet that your pet is vaccinated and disease free as to protect my own animals and that your dog MUST be fully potty trained.

Reviews
The dogs loved their time at Lois. They came home super happy and tired from all of the playing!
Great service, friendly and responsive. Thanks so much for taking care of Wembley!
My dog stayed with Lois over the labor day weekend. I was nervous because my dog is senior and doesn’t really liked to be bothered by other dogs. Lois sent me updates everyday and put my mind at ease. We will be back soon!

Information Lois M. would like to know about your pet
I want your pet's stay here with us to be as comfortable as possible. We stick as close to your regular routine as possible so let us know what works for you! If they have a bedding/blanket they sleep on bring it so they have something from home that is familiar. Do you crate them when out or at night...don't worry we have crates. We prefer not to crate unless owners ask us to. Pets will have full run of the home and yard and sleep on the bed if allowed ! Does your dog have any triggers that cause anxiety or aggression? Loud noises, thunder, toy sharing aggression? Are there any food allergies or restrictions we need to be aware of? Has your dog been socialized with others and gets along with dogs in a playful manner. I require all dogs to be fully vaccinated to include bordetella and flea/ tick meds . Dogs must be fully potty trained and I no longer accept full pitbulls.
A typical day
Fully fenced in yard where your pets have free run . We have lots of enrichment toys to occupy your pet and are outside a good deal during the day. In hot weather we also use a baby pool for them to splash
