I will 100% chat w/your cat or dog!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I have two wonderful kitties and have had a dog in the past. I love both dogs and cats but especially cats! I have lived with or spent time with consistently many different temperaments of cats! They tend to like me as I don't approach them other than to let them sniff me and then let them come to me on their own terms. One of my cats, Millie, is a rambunctious, food stealing, sprinting devil who is also incredibly sweet. Her sister, Tiny Mouse loves to sit on my partner and nudge your phone out of your hand. The dog I had in the past with my ex-partner was a senior dog, so I do have experience with small, senior dogs. We did a lot of damage control as she got older with puppy pads, meds, letting her lead the way but helping her with walks, etc. I have lived with a large dog for several years in the past, as well as multiple cats. I have had to give meds to cats, dogs and I also have had rabbits! I LOVE rabbits and other small animals, both on the larger side and note. We had to give one of our bunnies meds through an injection in his neck, and I used to be a medical assistant so I can do injections for meds and give meds, etc.

Took such good care of my cat. Provided a lot of photos and wrote how he was doing each visit. If I ever need a sitter again will def rebook with him.

When I needed a caretaker again for my two cats, I looked no further than Lukas. I had all the faith in the world that the cats would be well cared for. And I certainly was not disappointed. Hazel and KitKat respond really well to Lukas' warmth and friendliness. Please consider Lukas for all your pet care needs.

He was really great keeping us in the loop. He was great handling a stubborn dog who didn’t want to come back inside the house!

Safety, trust & environment

I am super careful with dogs and always make sure I have an understanding of if they need tight leash control, can be off lease or are pleasant and walk next to me! I like to understand what their routine is for walks, snacks etc. before I sit to make them as comfortable with me as possible! Cats I usually just make sure they don't get stuck in a closet somewhere (both of my cats sleep in our closets) or if they're an escape artist that they don't flee!!

Information Lukas R. would like to know about your pet

I like to know their routine and personality. I'm definitely okay with bigger dogs if they are well behaved - I'm on the smaller side and thought I've worked with big big dogs, I would prefer not to have to wrangle a very large dog!

A typical day

I have a small enclosed dog park in my apartment complex right now. Although I can't having dogs in the apartment, I can definitely bring dogs over to me in my car to hang out if it's a longer visit. The park can vary between having no dogs to 3 or 4, but I've never seen more than that. Dogs are always around, both big and small. There are many parks near me and I'm open to suggestions!

I work a 10-6 shift with flexibility. Usually I can be somewhere by 6pm as long as I have a heads up! Between 8-9:30 am is best, but usually I can make things work. The weekends I’m pretty open! Just check in with me and we can figure something out.
