Reno, Nevada Veterinarian Joins Feeding Pets of the Homeless Board of Directors

Feeding Pets of the Homeless, a leading national nonprofit exclusively focused on supporting pets of people experiencing homelessness, recently announced the appointment of Tony Luchetti, DVM, to its board of directors.

Luchetti is the owner of Peak Pet Urgent Care in Reno, Nevada, and brings more than 20 years of veterinary experience. He is a past president of the Nevada Veterinary Medical Association and an active member of both the American and Nevada Veterinary Medical Associations. His service also includes board roles with the Animal Emergency and Specialty Center and membership in local chambers of commerce.

“I want to be part of the board because I truly believe pets provide emotional support and a sense of purpose—often being a lifeline for their owners,” Luchetti said. “Feeding Pets of the Homeless’ mission speaks to me by helping ease the burden for those with so little, while strengthening the bond between owners and their pets. I’m especially passionate about helping veterans who have given so much for our freedoms.”

A graduate of Colorado State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, Luchetti has long championed access to care for both pets and people. His appointment reflects the organization’s continued commitment to compassionate, community-driven leadership.

“Tony’s expertise and deep empathy for underserved communities make him an invaluable addition to our board,” said Genevieve Frederick, founder and president of Feeding Pets of the Homeless. “His voice will amplify our efforts to serve veterans and ensure no pet is left behind due to circumstance.”
