Pet care experience
USAF Veteran + SMU #1 Pet Sitter
🐾 Hello there! I'm Jiyoung, I go by Ji/Jo/Joelle. 🇺🇸Former USAF Security Forces service member with a love for K9s. 🇰🇷 Originally from South Korea, I've lived in the East Coast (NJ/NYC/DC), UK, and Houston before moving to Dallas for SMU. 💼 I juggle between running my small business in events marketing- Elpisphere, bootstrapping my pet treat startup called Aribaro, raising for my femtech startup-Juvno, and pursuing MBA studies at SMU focusing on Real Estate, Consulting, Private Equity, and Venture Capital. 🏃♀️ An avid walker and pilates student, I'm all about staying active and embracing new adventures. With a background in pet nutrition and raw food diets, I'm here to answer any questions you may have. ✨ From dogs, cats, ferrets, turtles, lizards, birds, rabbits, and fish, I've cared for them all, even pet-sitting for friends, family, and clients for 20 years. 🐾 Your pets' happiness and well-being are my top priorities. Let's connect and plan the best experience for your beloved companions🤍 Can't wait to meet you and your fur babies! 🐾

Ratings and reviews
Awesome experience!! Our first time using Rover. Our dogs were happy and well taken care of!
So patient despite technical difficulties and gave lemon plenty of love
She is the absolute best! I was so nervous about leaving my dogs with someone new because I’ve had traumatic experiences in the past, but she made me feel so at ease. She is super reliable, communicative, organized kind and understanding. My dogs love her and we would recommend her to anyone.
This was my very first-time using Rover for pet sitting services. I don't have enough words to describe how happy I am to have found Jiyoung. To provide some context, Toro is a 10.5-year-old pug. While he's healthy and active, we all know older dog may require additional attention and they may have a more challenging time adapting to a new environment. Fortunately, Jinyoung made it possible for Toro to feel comfortable during the 6 days I was out of the country. She took the time to provide daily updates, including pictures, of Toro, which made me feel more at ease. I highly recommend her!
Thank you for making all of us feel so comfortable leaving our baby with you! We trust you & know that rebel had an amazing time being there! He loves playing with Grover and now he has a new friend to look forward to seeing :)
Jiyoung is great, she provides daily reports with pictures, manages any surprise last minute issues, and quickly responds to any message. Thank you!

Schedule
I work at home most of the time in Dallas if I don’t have class. I travel often but it is scheduled in advance so I block out in my calendar. I am an early riser, get up before 6am Monday-Friday and 8am on weekends.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a quiet, neighborhood community in Uptown near the Katy Trail. I communicate very well with my clients based on when I’m on the way, eta, and arrival.
A typical day
I love going to the park and walking around Katy Trail. I really enjoy playing with pets and go on long walks (if allowed) with them. If there is a local event for furries, would love to take them along if allowed.
