Fun and energetic pet sitter!! :)

Pet care experience

Hey everyone! My name is Luke and I graduated with my degree in Zoology from NC State University and I absolutely love animals! I have worked at zoos, teaching kids, doing research in the Amazon rainforest and currently I am a full time vet technician. I’m pretty flexible and I would love to be of help to you and your adorable pets! I have three Madagascar ground geckos and two tiger legged tree frogs myself and live in a house of animal lovers! I don’t have any fears of any dogs/cats so that is no issue! Please reach out to me if you have any questions or want to know anything additional and I will do my best to get back to you in less than 1 day (most times much quicker haha). Thanks! Luke

Will 100 percent recommend Luke! He is very sweet to my little girl and sent me daily pictures of their time together. She was very happy and felt loved. Will book again.

Luke was great! He was always quick to respond, and we felt very confident leaving our difficult puppy with him for the week.

Luke was AMAZING! He was very accommodating to our pet's needs. Luke is very friendly, and we felt comfortable with him house sitting our home as well. He is a great house guest! :) We were able to relax on our vacation knowing that our two dogs were so well taken care of. We will definitely book with Luke again!

Safety, trust & environment

I take rules, and specific needs for your pets very serious. I understand that each and every pet has their own needs and working at the Zoo we required many regulations to keep all the animals safe and happy.

Information Luke S. would like to know about your pet

Tell me some personality traits about your dog. Their favorite treats, playtime activities, maybe some things that could potentially scare them/etc. Keeping them happy and healthy is most important while you are away!

A typical day

I love going to parks, and playing fetch and if your dog needs any training I did a lot of training at the Zoo I worked at in Wisconsin.

I basically am always caring for animals in some sort of capacity. This is why I love being a Zoologist and where my love for animals come from.
