Dave Lasus, CEO of Heart + Paw, Named to 2023 Most Admired CEOs List

Heart + Paw is proud and excited to announce that our CEO, David Lasus, has been chosen as one of this year’s “Most Admired CEOs” by Philadelphia Business Journal. Over the course of a two-decade long career, David has honed his natural talents and ambition to develop impressive expertise in consumer trends, operations, retail, and real estate—all of which set the stage for an exceptional start for Heart + Paw as it creates a new standard in pet care. In less than five years, Heart + Paw is already an award-winning industry leader that has grown from just six locations within an hour’s drive of Philadelphia at the beginning of David’s tenure, to 28 locations across ten states. Even more impressive is the growth in number of pets served— Heart + Paw saw a 55% increase in the number of pets our veterinarians saw year over year, helping over 140,000 pets live their happiest, healthiest lives in 2022. David’s approach to leadership encourages each team member to do what they do best and to feel empowered to take risks to help propel the company forward.
