JENNIFER JILL

Jennifer moved to New York City with her three dogs 12 years ago from New Hampshire and has been working with dogs ever since. She's had a successful career pet-sitting, walking and training dogs, and for the last seven years has taken dogs to the New Hampshire countryside for out-of-city excursions. After three years of day-to-day life in the asphalt jungle, Jennifer was inspired to create Northward Hound...giving city dogs the opportunity to experience the country life. As a founder and partner in Norward Hound, Jennifer's NoHo trips total nearly 70 with over 500 dogs!! Jennifer lives in Manhattan and in Bucks County, PA with her husband and Soft-coated Wheaten Terrier, Jagger.

SHELLIE FITCH

Shellie is new to NoHo, joining in 2014 and brings a whole new energy to the process. Shellie has been a life-long dog owner and began her dog-grooming business, Paws I Care, in 2001 in Plainfield, CT. Volunteering in dog shelters in the 90's led her to working with dogs full-time, while raising four kids, an English bulldog named Frank and a pot-bellied pig named Jimmy Dean. Shellie and Jennifer have been friends for over 20 years, meeting while traveling around the globe with Up With People.
