Information Laila F. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, health conditions, or specific behaviors I should be aware of so I can provide the best possible care. I’m very attentive and make it my priority to stay in tune with each dog’s unique needs, whether they need extra cuddles, slow-paced walks, or specific routines. With me, your dog will always be cared for with love and attention to detail.

A typical day

A typical day will be filled with plenty of physical and mental stimulation for your dog. We’ll play at the doggy park, go on walks to explore the neighborhood, and take trips to a nearby park for exercise and fun. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention and love throughout the day to keep them happy and comfortable.

Pet care experience

I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have six years of pet care experience. As a Biology Pre-Med student at Howard University, I balance my passion for science with my love for animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets, including puppies and senior dogs. I provide attentive care, ensuring pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away ☺️❤️

Laila is amazing!! I had a very last minute cancellation, but Laila saved the day! After a video call I was confident that my dog would be well cared for while I was away. She was a great communicator and kept me updated throughout the stay. I appreciate her so much for her help!!

Laila was great with my dogs. I have a few and they are a rowdy bunch. They were well taken care of while I was out of town.
