Honoring the Dog Who Inspired Our Mission • Lessons Learned from Therapy Dog Service • Carrying Leo’s Impact Forward

Unleash Hope with Canine Concierge’s Animal-Assisted Therapy
Our Story Begins with a Heartfelt Tribute

Our journey was sparked by a deeply personal and transformative moment—a tragedy that led to a powerful purpose. After the sudden euthanasia of ‘Leo,’ our founder’s beloved Kuwaiti rescue dog, during the founder’s unexpected hospitalization, we set out to honor his memory by creating something truly meaningful. Today, Canine Concierge Corporation is dedicated to offering the healing power of animal-assisted therapy (AAT) to our NoVA community.
Our Mission: Healing Through Connection
Animals have an extraordinary ability to connect with us on a profound level, bringing comfort, joy, and healing. At Canine Concierge, we are dedicated to enriching lives and uplifting spirits through AAT. With the support of kind-hearted donors, we bring therapy dogs to hospitals, nursing homes, senior centers, rehabilitation facilities, and even police stations across Fairfax, VA—places where the impact of these visits is truly life-changing. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we are transparent, accountable, and fueled by compassion.
