I don't currently have a place of my own to look after pets in, but I'm happy to travel and take care of them from your own home. We can come to an agreement on what that looks like for you! In general I provide play, exercise and stimulation for your beloved pets, as well as keeping a vigilant eye to make sure they stay safe and sound while you're away.

Information Luke D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any health issues or personal pet preferences beforehand, and I'll do my best to take these into account at every opportunity!

A typical day

Typically, I like to make sure your pets get lots of play and excersize. Whether this means an engaging game of 'catch the fluffy worm' or a long walk around the nearest park, it depends on your location and preferences! I'm happy to do either and/or both :)

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Luke! I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember and genuinely love spending time with them! Growing up, I cared for all sorts of dogs - from Huskies and Springer Spaniels to German Shepherds and Labradors, so I'm very comfortable handling different personalities and energy levels. I’ve got plenty of hands on experience with walking, feeding, bathing and housesitting! More recently, I’ve also been looking after cats! I really enjoy getting to know their individual quirks, whether they’re super cuddly or a bit more independent. I’m a calm and reliable individual who will always make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own with regular updates, so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. So, why choose me? • I'm reliable and punctual – I take your pet’s routine seriously. • I have experience with both high and low energy pets. • I use a calm and patient approach, especially with nervous animals. • I provide regular photo and message updates for peace of mind. • I have a genuine love for animals!

Luke was really good with our dogs, and we knew he had the seal of approval when the more nervous one was so comfortable around him! He was really friendly and professional, and we'd have no hesitation in recommending Luke or using him again!

Luke was very lovely and friendly, he was thorough and ensured to cover every area required to care for my 2 sweet voidies. Luke was also very patient when one of my kitties did not return home for their meal, and gave both of them lots of love and snuggles 😻 he also brought in my parcels and took good care of my home. We definitely recommend and will book again with Luke. Thank you again 🐈‍⬛ 🐈‍⬛

Thank you so much Luke!! Luke was fantastic, he was punctual, attentive, caring and went above and beyond. He provided a drop in service to look after our chickens and made sure they had fresh water and food, let them have a play and treats in the garden and ensured they were ok during the heatwave. He even watered our plants which was amazing. He left really detailed updates and took pictures and we felt the chickens were in incredibly safe hands. We’ll deffinately use Luke again next time we need a pet sitter and would highly recommend! Thanks again

I have known Luke for many years and he is a very trustworthy person and friend. We had the luxury of having Luke locally and when we were travelling away he would take care of our two female fancy rat's Rascal and Phantom and did so on multiple occasions. He would feed and care for them and send us plenty of updates during his visits so we could see how well they were doing while we were gone. I will be recommending Luke as a pet sitter to anyone that needs one for the future!
