Loving and knowledgeable care!! A++

Pet care experience

I have many years of animal care experience. Worked for 6 year in animal hospitals. Have done many hours of dog walking, dog training, dog socialization (dog park, in public) I live with two small amazing dogs. I desire to have one additional visitor a day. We have a lovely back yard. Your pet will stay inside home unless they desire to venture into the back yard. Doggie doors are in place. I am a avid hiker and walk many miles a day. So enjoying outdoors with your loved one is my pleasure! I am willing to do in-home care for the right families. I am so excited to meet your fur family and you!!! Please feel free to ask me any questions you many have to gain your peace of mind.

I have known Lakia to be a loving and attentive pet caregiver for many years; her care and intuition regarding animals is amazing. Her self confidence and gentle, yet assertive personality is ideally suited for pet care.

Lakia is an energetic, pet loving, breed knowledgeable professional. She will put your mind at ease as she takes care of your fur baby. Highly recommended

Lakia was my neighbor, I often have to travel so she would take care of my dogs. One of my dogs, Ace is extremely shy but she was able to bond with him, she would come over, spend time with them and make sure they were fed and loved, and never asked for anything in return. Now she’s my roommate. She is a vegetarian, animal lover and completely reliable. Also she is easygoing and has a great personality so I couldn’t imagine someone better for walking and taking care of peoples pets.

Please provide me with knowledge of challenging behaviors and special needs. Dog aggression, potty training, Special diet, medications etc. I love all kinds of breeds that doesn’t matter. The size of dog doesn’t matter for walks/or in your home visits. Small dogs preferred to stay in my home.

A typical day

I provide walks for all visits in my home. If your pet is comfortable and you approve we can go on hiking adventures. Your pet will be my top priority! So lots of pets and hanging out!
