Dog-dad w/ over 25 yrs experience!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs since I was 11 yrs old. Experience with both young and old dogs, and understanding of the limitations they might have. I like to think of pets as people, and as such I give them the same respect. My dog and cat eat out of clean food and water bowls, their areas are meticulously cleaned and maintained to keep them healthy and happy. I would love to provide the same level of care to your babies when you are not able to!

Another great experience with Louis. We can finally enjoy ourselves and not worry about Sweet Pea's care while we're out of town. Louis is wonderful with her and is great at communicating with us.

Louis was great with our Sweet Pea and took good care of the house while we were gone. He stayed in contact and provided updates with pictures. I highly recommend Louis and have already booked him for our next overnight.

Safety, trust & environment

For walks or outside time, if no fence is enclosing the area, your dog will be kept on its leash for safety and assurance sake. Inside, any necessary precautions will be taken to ensure safety of the animals first and foremost. Potty breaks will be given after mealtimes and at least 2 times throughout the day as well, or as directed.

Information Louis D. would like to know about your pet

Please keep me advised of any special needs your pets might have. Let me know if any particular medications, special instructions or anything that is unique to your animals.

A typical day

Depending on the dog and their play style I would adjust the play and setting as needed. Big dogs need space to run and play, so outside works best. Fetch, tug of war (assuming the owner permits that), and generally whatever seems appropriate to the dogs energy level.

I work from home so I am home with my babies most days all day. The dog is fed immediately in the morning ( as early as 5:30, she insists on it). Then she is let outside to do her business and returns immediately to snuggle with her mom and dad in bed for awhile. Meanwhile the water bowl is washed and refreshed with filtered water, the cat food bowl is checked (autofeeder, and if low is washed before refilling). Cat litter box is checked every other day, clumps and turds removed, fresh litter added, area vacuumed and wiped down underneath and around box. While I am caring for your babies instead my wife will assume these same responsibilities for our babies while I attend to yours!
