I work 9am-5pm with flexibility. Usually I can be somewhere by 5pm as long as I have a heads up! Between 7:30-9 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.

About Lukas R.
Communication
Skills
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 will 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. Cats are a little bit easier in that sense, but with dogs it is definitely helpful for me to know what to expect. I'm 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 very large dog!
A typical day
I am happy to play fetch or chase dogs around (for a bit, I only last so long!) I like walks, especially in the woods. Cats I play with if they're interested, brush them if they want or just sit with them. I am happy to make them happy.

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.

Reviews
Lukas was superb. They went above and beyond to not only care for my cat but also alleviate any anxiety I had with the level of competence they showed. They brought in my packages that were delivered and cleaned up cat mess, followed my instructions to a "T", I returned to my cat after 5 days and they were not starving or starved for attention, I receives such an in depth update every visit along with pictures. Any questions they had, they asked instead of assuming and deciding for themselves. A+ will absolutely be calling Lukas whenever Cooper needs a sitter!
Lukas is terrific. Loving and responsible with our pets. Thanks Lukas!
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.
