About Us

Welcome!

Hello! My name is Jennifer McCarthy, I am the owner and founder of Doggone Lucky Pet Services. I've been a resident of Hillsborough, NJ since 2006. I worked in corporate for over 28 years. Now that I'm no longer working in corporate, I decided to pursue my passion, working with animals. I get such joy spending time with my dogs, going on hikes, morning and evening walks. Exercise and mental stimulation are key elements to a happy dog.

I'm a member of Pet Sitters International and have taken many courses on pet care and continue to do so. In 2021, I completed my certification as a Certified Professional Pet Sitter and complete the continuing education credits necessary for renewal. In 2022, I became certified as a Fear Free Pet Sitter. I'm currently studying Pet First Aid and CPR through Pet Sitters International. I've also helped at rescues through the years, providing fostering and walking of rescue dogs.

My family has always included dogs. I currently have two canine babies both rescued at different times. My wish is for all homeless dogs to find families and live out their life happy, cared for and loved.

I look forward to talking and meeting you and your pet(s) and have them become part of the 'Doggone Lucky' family!

I have trained every dog that I've ever had. This is a picture of Lupo. I was fostering him and training him to be the best dog so he would find a home. However, by the time he was trained, he became our dog and part of our family. So, I guess I would say he was my first foster failure. We continued training and he went on to become a Certified Pet Therapy Dog through The Bright & Beautiful Therapy Dogs, Inc.

I'm dedicated, trustworthy, caring and compassionate and will care for your pet(s) the way I do my own. Call or email and we will discuss and come up with a plan that will work for you and your pet.
