BIO of President and Primary Walker....
Originally from NYC, Yvonne's very first job in Manhattan was a dog walker when she was 12 years old. She walked her neighbor's dog for $5 a day shortly after losing her family pet that was a St Bernard that she affectionately called The Drool Machine. Later in her teenage years she worked in a pet store in the Bronx during the summer. From this time forward
she would be taking in animals temporarily for friends through out her adult life. She has no pet of her own, but feels that having the opportunity to foster many animals in the past for friends had the satisfaction she needed from our furry friends and the appreciation from her human friends. Yvonne moved to Hoboken in 1998 while attending City College of New York for Architecture. Almost immediately some friends of hers that did some moving around asked her if she can board their cats at her new apartment. The two cats didn't know each other but it was Yvonne's impromptu daily task to make sure these cats lived harmoniously together. Yvonne later became a real estate Agent and currently still does so servicing mostly Hoboken and Jersey City. With some time on her hands especially in the afternoon, with no furry friends to harbor she noticed a good friend of hers did dog walking and pet sitting. With not much to do during the day but sit in an overly air conditioned office she would walk with her friend during these visits and found the first line of work was calling out to her once again. Yvonne is now a walker and sitter for the Parker Pets LLC and president and can't be happier. She has her free time now filled with animals she can joyfully take care of. Yvonne again is able to spread the love that she has for animals and receives the satisfaction and appreciation she once had due to the kindness of her heart... but now she is grateful to do it for a living!
