Hoboken pet pal! L

Hey! Lifelong dog enthusiast, here. I grew up in a home that was basically a canine clubhouse, with up to 5 dogs at a time. They weren’t just pets to me; they became a part of who I am. I’m ALWAYS down for a furry adventure, from teaching and hanging out with puppies to taking long walks and trips to the park. And as dogs get older, I'm passionate about making sure they have a warm and loving environment. I can’t wait to meet your pup!

Second stay with Lucas and the kids seem to be well taken care of. He was very responsive to texts and accommodating when I needed a late pickup. Would definitely come back for more vacastays for the pups!

Ziggy had a great time with Luca! We received adorable photos of our little guy while we were away which were incredibly reassuring (and lovely to see our pup living his best life). Luca clearly is great with dogs and we are so glad to have found such a caring home (in our neighborhood) for our schnauzer!!

Lucas was amazing with our dog Dublin! He watched Dublin for two weeks - the longest we’ve ever been away but we were so at ease knowing he was getting so much love and attention. Lucas made Dublin feel right at home and he was so well cared for.

Lucas is awesome! He was super flexible attentive and loving to our dog Dublin. I loved that he documented the walk and dinner time so that I could pick Dublin up and know right away when he last ate and went potty. Can’t wait to use Lucas again!

Just picked up our dogs from Lucas and honestly couldn’t be happier. They were super relaxed and clearly well taken care of. Lucas was really easygoing and flexible with our early drop-off and late pickup, which made things so much less stressful. Loved that the dogs could hang on the couch and even sleep in bed, basically a home away from home. Would 100% book him again!

Lucas took great care of my dog while I was away for a long trip! I look forward to booking him again!

Schedule

During the week I'm a public relations pro, and lucky for me, my job lets me work from home whenever I want. That means I'm flexible and always available for some quality pup time. When it comes to weekends, I'm a true Hoboken homebody at heart. I usually stick around the neighborhood, and I'm always up for the company of a furry friend!

Safety, trust & environment

I share my Hoboken apartment with my awesome female roommate and good friend, who's also crazy about dogs. She's as eager as I am to meet your pup and is always ready to lend a helping hand – in fact, she insists on it. They’re in for double the love and care, no doubt!

A typical day

At work, taking breaks and looking after my mental health is a top priority, so why not spend those moments on a pup walk, snuggle, or playtime? On weekends, I love escaping the apartment and soaking up the lively Hoboken streets. And, of course, a visit to the dog park is a must if the pup is up for it. As for nights, well, I hope your furry friend is a Bravo fan, because they'll find themselves right next to me on the couch, enjoying a binge-watch session of whatever show I'm craving.

Feel free to give me the lowdown on any special requests for your pup's care – there's no such thing as too big an ask. When it comes to boarding, an FYI that my roommate is also on Rover. If you'd prefer your dog to have our place all to themselves, just let me know, and I'll make sure she's not hosting another pup at the same time. Your dog's comfort is our top priority!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
