About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life and have always had a huge soft spot for them! I currently have four pets of my own: a Rottweiler, an Australian Shepherd, a Maine Coon, and an orange kitty. Having such a variety of pets has given me plenty of firsthand experience with different breeds, sizes, energy levels, and personalities. From big, playful dogs to independent cats, I’m comfortable adapting to each animal’s individual needs and routines. I know firsthand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets. They’re family, and I would treat yours just like my own! Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to give your pets the love, patience, and attention they deserve while you’re away. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel comfortable and cared for! I work a fairly flexible schedule, which allows me to make time for pet care throughout the week! I’m happy to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and other pet care needs whenever my schedule allows. Having four pets of my own, I’m already accustomed to making feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention part of my daily routine.

“Yanya was great to work with as we needed dog care for our Goldendoodle at our campsite while we enjoyed a 10-hour train ride into ONT. Yanya was responsive, on-time, spent the entire hour with the dog walking and playing with her, and sent some great pictures/videos. I would definitely use her again if needed while in the area!”

About: I love fur babies!

About: Hi, I’m Madison! I’m a professional canine trainer, behaviorist, groomer, and full-time caretaker with 15 years of hands-on experience. I’m certified in dog behavior, temperament, body language, and care—so I understand what dogs need to feel safe, confident, and happy. I create enriching, balanced environments where every dog can thrive. From playful activities to structured downtime and personalized attention for pups with unique needs, I tailor each day to your dog’s individual personality. With me, your furry family member is treated like my own—showered with love, positive guidance, and plenty of tail-wagging fun! I give every dog my full attention, making sure they feel safe, loved, and totally at ease. Most days, you’ll find us outside soaking up the fresh air—running, playing, and exploring together. And if you ever wonder where I am, I’m probably out back with the pack having a blast. When winter hits, we move the fun into our heated, pup-friendly garage. It’s set up just for them, with turf or rubber mats for comfort and tons of toys to keep tails wagging. No matter the weather, your dog will always have a cozy, engaging, and joyful space to call their home-away-from-home. Your pup’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority! Our fully fenced-in backyard is designed with your dog’s comfort and enjoyment in mind, featuring pools, toys, water bowls, and all the essentials for a fun and enriching experience. Each dog is fed separately to maintain a peaceful and individualized routine. For dogs who prefer more privacy, we provide private rooms to ensure they have a quiet space away from the other dogs when needed. We are committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and personalized environment for every dog in our care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
