I am a veterinary assistant currently studying to become a licensed technician with a specialty in cats! I have over a year of experience in a cat only clinic, and care for all kinds of cats at all different care levels every day. I am confidant in medicating even the spiciest kitties, and am not at all bothered by long lists of medications or care requirements.
I like to let the cat dictate how my visits go. If your cat is friendly and wants to play, I like to stay and play! If your cat is more shy, I like to keep things short to make them more comfortable.

Learn More About Lucas

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have four cats; Biscuit, Mango, Cupcake, and Cloud! Two are seniors at 14+ years old, with the other two middle aged :)

Are you usually available during holidays?

I like to be available as much as possible. I dont travel very often, and enjoy being with cats more than being on the road so I am usually available over holidays.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

This depends entirely on the cat. For some, less is absolutely more. For others, I will spend more time with them on their level and offer treats or toys! Sometimes this process takes several days over longer visits, but the results are always worth it!

Lucas did fantastically- we have an injured cat that required him to administer daily medicine and check her (gnarly) wound. He was able to efficiently describe what he was seeing and provide comforting + informational pics so we could enjoy our previously planned trip without worrying too much over our cat's healing process. He also kept her cone and area very clean - which she does not make easy!

Lucas was very thorough about asking what our kitties needs are when he came to check on them. They didn’t hesitate to reach out for clarity, and give us plenty of updates during his visit! which is very reassuring! he’s professional and kind, and would definitely recommend!

Lucas did a great job providing for our two scaredy cats. His visits were quick and to the point, which is exactly what kept our cats feeling comfortable while we were gone.

Lucas was a lifesaver by taking over a reservation from another sitter who was unable to complete at last minute. The visits were completed satisfactorily, and photos and feedback were great.

Lucas was great! We did a short meet-and-greet before our trip, and he was excellent throughout the entire experience. He was very communicative, reliable, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We trusted him with our boy without hesitation and will absolutely book with him again.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.

Vancouver cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $28.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with your sitter before you leave.

Cats are territorial animals and don't do well in new environments. The presence of other cats, dogs, and even birds in kennels or animal hotels cause an immense amount of stress. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet!
