While I have other commitments throughout the week, I’m great at managing my time and can usually adjust my schedule to make room when needed.

About Laina M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I take the care of animals very seriously—both in my home and in my clients’ homes. My own pets have taught me how important it is to be attentive, patient, and detail-oriented. I have two big dogs and two cats, all of whom have special needs. One of my dogs only has three legs and has been through extensive rehabilitation and medical care, so I’m very familiar with mobility issues, post-op routines, and the importance of adapting exercise to the animal’s capabilities. All four of my pets are on different prescription diets and medications, so I’m experienced in administering meds properly, sticking to feeding routines, and keeping a close eye on health and behavior changes. Whether I’m caring for animals in my own home or visiting yours, I bring that same level of attentiveness and compassion. Every pet is unique, and I always take the time to understand and follow their specific needs and routines to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for.
Information Laina M. would like to know about your pet
let me know if your animal has any behavioral issues or if I should approach certain situation (kissing etc) with caution. It is not problem for me, I just need to know before I go (:
A typical day
runs/walks, playing and giving lots of attention! Open to suggestions of what you would prefer for me to do during my time spent with your fur baby.

Animal Lover with Vet Experience
Pet care experience
Hi there! I'm a former veterinary technician who spent years working hands-on with animals. While I loved the work, the field could be a bit emotionally heavy at times—so I decided to step back and find a happier, more balanced way to stay close to the animals I adore. That’s what brought me to dog walking and drop-in visits! I truly enjoy long walks and runs with my own dogs, so if you have an active pup who needs a good workout, I’ve got you covered. I share my home with two big dogs and two cats, so I’m very comfortable with pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. All of my animals have special diets and unique needs, so I’m extra careful and experienced when it comes to following feeding instructions, administering medications, or keeping routines just right. Your pets will be treated like family—because that’s exactly how I see them.

Reviews
Laina is super wonderful with my dog Gus! He’s a stubborn, silly, old man who needs extra care and requires a good deal patience. She is kind and caring with him and he’s always so happy to see her!
Laina is someone we have trusted countless times with the care of our animals! As a former vet tech, Laina possess the skills to monitor and care for one of our dogs who has high special needs in addition to our other dog and cat. She is patient, caring, and will go above and beyond for our babies! She is a fantastic communicator, I never have to ask for an update from her. As someone who is a bit of a helicopter pet parent, I highly recommend Lania.
