I'm pet sitting and the dog vomited yellow vomit and some food she vomited only once should I be concerned? She seems fine now!

I'm glad to hear that Angel seems fine now. Vomiting once is not usually a huge cause for concern. At this point, I would skip her next meal to allow her stomach some time to settle. If she vomits more frequently, becomes lethargic, or also develops diarrhea, a trip to the vet will likely be in order. I hope that all goes well!

Poor Ovi! Vomiting four times in one hour is a bit excessive, but doesn't necessarily mean that something is seriously wrong if he is acting normal otherwise and the vomiting stops shortly after. If the vomiting has continued since then, or if Ovi is showing any other symptoms such as acting lethargic or not wanting to eat, I would be more concerned that this could be a serious problem such as pancreatitis, an intestinal obstruction, or a severe systemic illness - in that case, it would be best to take him to the vet right away for an exam.
