Dogs are my passion!
Pet care experience
I am mom to a wonderful 3-year-old pup who has taught me more about life than I ever thought possible. We found each other through an amazing Brooklyn-based rescue, and I have since gained a wealth of canine-related knowledge and experience through this community of dog lovers and professional handlers. I have been providing dog-walking and dog-sitting services to repeat clients for the past couple of years, and am looking to expand my client base now that I have more flexibility. My goal when working with dogs is to help them achieve relaxation and tail-wagging happiness through exercise, structure, and loads of love. I am committed to caring for your pups like they are my own, and will treat our working relationship with professionalism. Rest assured that your pups' well-being will be my sole focus when I'm with them!

Dear Rover! Yen has been my dog-sitter and walker for the past year, and my baby Arrow always looks forward to her visit 3 times a week. He's a big strong German wire-haired pointer mix who plays a bit rough at times, but she handles him with confidence. We are now good friends and I'm so glad Arrow has someone else he adores besides me! Best regards; Barbara Gelencser
I met Yen a couple of years ago through the rescue where our pups were adopted from. She has been helping me walk and care for my Bailey a few times a week. Bailey and I love her! She takes Bailey on long long walks, sometimes with her pup Orion, and Bailey always comes home happy and tired out. Bailey usually stays with Yen when I’m out of town, and she gives Bailey the love and care like she’s her own!
What a stroke of luck that Yen and I became neighbors a few years ago! We are both dog moms and often exchange pup-sitting and walking favors. What can I say... Olly loves her and her fur baby Orion! Yen just has a way with dogs. Olly is barky and Yen helps her chill out at home and during her walks. I learn a lot just by watching how she handles the little tyrant! We love Yen and can't recommend her enough!
I've known Yen over 4 years and can assure anyone considering her hiring as a dog caregiver, that she is the the most patient and gentle soul I have ever met. Yen is organically caring and affectionate. I have personally witnessed how her patience and reassurance have made a huge difference for a fur baby who was very shy and anxious around strangers. I highly recommend her! Tamara S.
About Yen Shing N.

Home
Information Yen Shing N. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if the pup is neutered/spayed, and up-to-date with vaccinations. I would also appreciate a short introduction on their temperament, size, any known medical or behavioral issues (allergies, phobias etc.), and the type of collar/harness/leash they walk on.
A typical day
I will take the time to get to know your pup, even if it's a one-time assignment. I have walked all over Manhattan with my own and my clients' pups and know the safest, most pleasant areas for walks. If I'm providing daycare or drop-in visits, they will enjoy gentle play-time and lots of cuddles and kisses. I am happy to take care of any necessary feedings as well.
