Information Lucas D. would like to know about your pet

Before watching your dog, it’s helpful to know their routine, typical behavior, and energy level. Please share any medications, special needs, or important quirks, as well as their favorite toys, activities, or walking habits so I can make their time with me comfortable, safe, and fun.

A typical day

I like to keep pets active, happy, and feeling at home. Depending on their energy level, we’ll go for walks, play games like fetch or tug, and spend plenty of time relaxing, getting attention, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for.

Your Dog’s Second Favorite Human

Pet care experience

Howdy! My name is Lucas, and I’m 26 years old. I grew up with a lot of dogs in my extended family and was often the one caring for them while family members were away. I’ve looked after all kinds of dogs – big, small, high-energy, and older pups – which taught me how to adjust to different personalities and energy levels. I’d love to hear from you and meet your dog’s favorite human!

Lucas did a wonderful job with our dog Gus while we were away for the weekend! He was communicative as always and sent many photos.

Lucas is truly one of the most caring and responsible dog caregivers I know. He has a natural love for animals and treats every dog like they’re his own. He’s patient, attentive, and confident with all types of dogs, no matter their size or personality. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and he always prioritizes each dog’s safety and happiness. I would trust him completely with any pet!

Lucas was super sweet and gentle with my little old lady Lilo. She was an 18.5 year old chihuahua who generally hated men, but she immediately liked Lucas. He was patient and calm with her. I never had to worry about her with him. He was also super good with my 90lb pitbull Khan. He was able to handle the high energy easily. 10/10 would hire again.

Lucas has watched our chocolate lab Gus many times! This last time he was wonderful with him as we were out of town for a full week. He walked him multiple times a day and played with him. He also gave him his anxiety medication which we are so grateful for. Our dog has a lot of energy and they had a blast together!
