I am currently finishing of my PhD in anthropology at the university of Sussex. I teach a few classes a week, but other than that all I need is a good Wi-Fi connection and a dog buddy to keep me company. I am single, no children and am flexible to being in locations in and around the city. ALL RATES CAN BE NEGOTIATED FOR THOSE ON LOW INCOME!!

Information Luke W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are any special needs that I need to be aware of to ensure that I can give up dog the best care possible

A typical day

Unlike most humans, I can give dogs 100% of my attention. I can offer them as many walls as is needed, in any of the nearby parks. I can take them on dog walks with other friendly dogs whose owners are friends of mine. We can play catch and tug of war with toys

Location

Hove, United Kingdom

Luke W.'s Neighborhood

They say a dog is a man’s best friend, I am theirs

Pet care experience

I have taken care of and grown up around dogs all my life. They say a dog is a man’s best friend, I am all dogs best friend. My approach to taking care of your dog is to learn 40% from you and the other 60% from them. Each dog is different so my care varies from dog to dog. I am known to be very good with dogs that have anxiety/separation issues. ALL RATES CAN BE NEGOTIATED FOR THOSE ON LOW INCOME. Please do inquire :)

Luke was amazing with Mani! He was booked for a 30-minute walk but ended up spending over an hour with him. He sent lots of photos and updates, communication was great. Highly recommend!

Luke has a lovely temperament and clearly understands dogs and how to be around them. Cookie relaxed really quickly with him during the first house sitting experience!

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.
