### Main Characters

* **Loopdidoo** (Grabouillon in the original French version; voiced by Michel Elias) is the protagonist of the series. He is a light yellow bulldog with jet black spots; he is a troublemaker, and is often scolded by the owner Petunia, but after all he is a nice and sweet dog.

* **Petunia** (Pétunia in the original French version; voiced by Sandrine Le Berre) is the cutest owner of Loopdidoo; she has jet black hair in two pigtails and often rides in a bright pink tricycle. She is a patient and understanding 5-year-old girl who wears a sunshine yellow sweatshirt with a scarlet number five on it, a bright pink mini skirt with white polka dots, bright pink and amber socks, and scarlet sneakers. In the music video for Season 2, she performed "Pop Hop", a dance song featuring her singing voice provider as Camille François.

* **Oodles** (Bagout Ragout in the original French version; voiced by Martial Leminoux) is Basil's amethyst purple cat and the rival of the protagonist Loopdidoo; he doesn't like to bathe like all cats. He is arrogant and a little bossy, but sometimes he turns out to be a good friend.

* **Basil** (Basilein the original French version; voiced by Brigitte Guedj) is one of Petunia's friends; he has sunshine yellow hair and wears a cerulean blue t-shirt, golden yellow pants, and white shoes with cerulean blue trim. He likes to invent objects, often causing disasters.

* **Mrs. Mole** (La taupe in the original French version; voiced by Sophie Deschaumes) is a bespectacled brown mole who lives underground, always complaining about all the troubles that Loopdidoo is up to and always trying to get revenge.

* **The Flea Family** (La famille Pucekipik in the original French version; Mr. Flea, Mrs. Flea, Flea Boy, and Flea Girl) are Loopdidoo's red-orange fleas that live on the protagonist's fur, but they want to change houses, so they often run away getting into a thousand problems, in fact they are always forced to return.

### Secondary Characters

* **Kivala** (voiced by Boris Rehlinger) is a cross-eyed tangerine frog who can't hop yet, so when he tries he always falls into something.

* **Zig-Zag** (Zazimute in the original French version; voiced by Jérémy Prévost) is a cross-eyed grey pigeon who can't fly yet, so when he tries he always bumps into something.

* **Gladys** (voiced by Marie-Charlotte Leclaire) is a friend of Petunia, she has amber hair and wears a white blouse underneath her bright pink dress with a capri flower on it, white socks, and jet black shoes. She is very rich and travels in a bright pink cozy coupe.

* **Gwendoline** (Cunégonde in the original French version; voiced by Brigitte Guedj) is Gladys' tan-brown female chicken, she is Petunia's best friend. A little hysterical and tomboyish, she is secretly (but not too much) in love with Loopdidoo, multiplying various stratagems to seduce him.

* **Gonzague** (voiced by Gabriel Le Doze) is a cousin and almost double of Loopdidoo but with a very 80s scarf around his neck and a cowboy hat on his head, Gonzague is a sort of Sunday adventurer who loves to explore the island.

* **Anowak** (voiced by Marie Facundo) is an islander, sort of a Friday with a bowl cut and a twitch of language, he has jet black hair. Indeed, he can't help but say "wak" in every sentence. His animal is a bipolar and narcoleptic armadillo, named Tatouwak. When he's not totally asleep 90% of the time, he sometimes experiences hyperactivity attacks, a sort of colonial quarter hour that cat owners know well.
