Latoya knows a bit about leading a pack. Latoya is a doting mother to two amazing kiddos. She also helps take care of her daughter’s hamster, Leo. They are a proud military family. Latoya is a service-connected Navy veteran and college graduate. Latoya’s heart for animals stems from her father who shared it with her at a very young age. She grew up with a Pekingese, two rabbits, six parakeets, fish, and four turtles. He even snuck in a baby alligator once! She gets her vigor of entrepreneurship from her mother who has had multiple successful businesses in her youth.

“Sadly, last October, we lost our FURst son, Hershey who was 15. I wanted to embrace my love for animals and passion of entrepreneurship to find a way to honor him. Hershey was such a light in our lives”

In her spare time, Latoya and her kids enjoy going to the beach, roller skating, traveling, playing Roblox, and watching Netflix.

“ I am so proud to be apart of AFDT and I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members!”
