Pet care experience

I have had experience with all kinds of dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, etc. I grew up with an 80-pound German Shepherd named Sheba and had a 70-pound Pibble (Pitbull) named Moo until summer 2018 when she passed away due to a medical condition. I currently have a 65-pound Boxer/Plott Hound mix named Toby. Toby absolutely loves other dogs (all sizes) and is very respective of them. He also loves to play with other dogs if they want to play! In high school and college, I worked for a dog-sitting company called Beg N' Bark, based out of central New Jersey. Through that experience, I did lots of dog walking and home stays with dogs. I also taught dog CPR and first aid at several dog shows and pet store events. I currently volunteer with Independent Animal Rescue (IAR), based out of Durham, North Carolina, and I was formerly the Dog Program Volunteer Coordinator. I have fostered 12+ dogs in the past 1.5 years including hounds (Edison Jr., Basil, Garbanzo), pitbulls (Tuna, Gary, Inky), boxers (Sebastian), labs (Biggie Smalls, Jody), small dogs (Mitzi, Beans, Schorge, Butters). I love all dogs, but I would say I have an especially sweet spot for pitbulls :). Check out my dog's Instagram for a glance at my and my dog's life! Or my personal Instagram for more dogs! @yijy83 @yimoosif83

Jennifer was an amazing dog sitter! She was very flexible, a great communicator, and worked with our schedule when our plane kept getting delayed! She took great care of our pup! Would definitely recommend

Jennifer was so helpful taking Pop! She had a wonderful yard, a Very Good Boi who played well with Pop, and was so so so so flexible. I'm so grateful for her taking Pop and I know we'll use her services again in the future. Thank you!!!

Highly recommended! Jennifer was a wonderful house/puppy sitter. She sent multiple picture updates a day to let us know what adventures our dogs were having while she was with them. She clearly cares so much for pets when she is with them. Without question, we will be requesting services through Jennifer again!

Jennifer was hands down the best dog sitter we have ever had! She continually sent me updates and adorable pictures. She even used her own dog food to feed our hungry pup. She was so flexible about pick up and drop off times. She was went above and beyond with everything she did for him! He clearly loved her. When I picked him up, he was snuggling up to her and then didn’t even want to go home with me because he had such a great time. Would highly recommed her to anyone!
