A dog is also a girls best friend!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Jacky, I’m 25, and am a huge animal lover! Graduated from UIUC as an MCB major and currently working towards my dream of becoming a doctor. I absolutely LOVE animals. I have 4 pets at home: 3 cats and 1 dog. My cats like to mind their own business and they like to pretend they’re dogs too, but my dogs will have a blast having another friend in the room :) my doggy is a little pug and he gets along with any and all kinds of dogs! I have experience with dog and cat-sitting, not just through Rover, for a little over 8 years! I’m super friendly and active, so your pet will be in great hands! I’m very detail oriented and there’s definitely nothing I can’t handle. They will be treated as if they were my own baby. I currently work at Trader Joe’s so my schedule varies :) I either work from 2-10pm or 6am-2pm, so when I’m not home, Leo tends to be home! The pets don’t stay alone for a long time at all. Your pet will gets lots of love from me when I’m home, and love from my partner and my other boys while I’m at work :) I'm so sure that the pictures I'll send you of your pet cuddled up with my pug will win you over! Thank you for reading this far! Hope to see you soon <3

Jacky and Leo are the best! Consistently provided updates and pictures of Baxter during his visit. Bax has a lot of energy and Jacky and Leo had no issues adjusting. Their puppies treated Bax like family and seem to be having a great time together. Definitely will book with Jacky and Leo going forward!

Jacky + Leo are amazing! Their stellar reviews and trio of pugs definitely drew us in but their personalities, attentiveness to detail and communication sold us! Upon our first visit and drop off, you could feel Jacky’s warmth and love for fur babies and we got a chance to see how Leo does feeding for their pugs too (if you can get your 3 pugs to pray before a meal, you can do it all). They followed up with questions to ensure that Chubbs stay would be comfortable and that was extremely comforting on our end. Throughout his stay, they sent photos and were super flexible with timing of pick up/drop offs. We 100% plan to have them as our forever go-to Chubbs cuddler’s and are so happy to have found them.

Jacky and Leo were great with Cookie and Pepper! Coordinating pick up and drop off was easy. The fact that they had 3 pugs of their own was the cherry on top! The 5 of them together created the cutest grumble! Jacky and Leo sent me photos and videos of all the dogs playing together throughout the stay. I will definitely be using their services again!

My cat literally melted in front of Jacky. Big pile of puddly goo. She's was absolutely great and responsive.

Pets at my place will have a ton of fun and never feel lonely! If your pet has specific requirements, I can easily accommodate to them to ensure their well being. Pets will always be babies to me, and I’ll treat and care for them the same! Again, my pretty kitty will stay away haha and if needed, I can take extra precaution to separate if it’s an issue.

Information Jacky & Leo V. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if the pet is potty trained, and if they go a little crazy on furniture. I can always throw a cover on the sofas just in case :) if there’s anything specific about diet or something I should know or be aware of, let me know! There’s nothing I can’t handle! From deaf dogs, to almost blind dogs, to dogs with severe separation anxiety, they will always be cared for! I ask that your pet is friendly with other pets (since I have some at home!) Your pet doesn’t have to like cats - she’s upstairs so it’s likely your dog will never meet her. My dogs are pretty friendly and like to play, so they'll have no trouble being entertained at home. They also get tired easily so they’re sleeping and cuddling with each other for most of the day! I have a medium size crate if necessary that we use to potty train (if you crate train your dogs and would like me to use it, let me know).

A typical day

I’m no stranger to the dog park, I love going on walks, and playing with all their favorite toys! If your pet is a cuddler, even better because I love having my lazy days just as much. We have a lot of backyard play time too. My dogs just like to be chased around so it's definitely refreshing being able to watch dogs that actually like to play fetch!

I have pets of my own, so your pet will fit in perfectly since I already have a natural routine with my fur babies. I live with my fiance so your pet will not rely on JUST me for all the loving :)
