Pet care experience

I will 100% chat w/your cat!

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.

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!!

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!

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!

Lukas was absolutely wonderful with Hazel and KitKat. When I got home, even after a horrific rainstorm, they were happy and purring as if I'd never left. I cannot thank Lukas enough for giving my cats such good care. Not only do I highly recommend Lukas to watch your furry friends, I now have peace of mind to know that I have someone I can count on for future visits. Thank you so much!

Schedule

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.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Lukas can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
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!
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.
