About: Certified dog trainer and behaviorist. Pet CPR certified Medication dispensing knowledge Grooming knowledge I own a 2 year old Goldendoodle, Winnie. I raised her while going to school for my certification from 12 weeks old. I practice positive reinforcement with balanced training. We work hard and play harder, and love an active lifestyle. I’m a stay-at-home mom and I intentionally keep my schedule open so I can provide consistent, attentive care. I enjoy staying busy and working with animals daily. Available 7 days a week, typically 9am–9pm. Weekend availability varies based on client needs. Animals in my care are treated like family, but with structure. I provide clear boundaries, routine, and guidance so pets feel secure and understood. Pets are given time to play, eat, potty, train, and rest. I incorporate basic manners and calm behavior into daily care so they’re not just being watched—they’re learning. I have a young child in the home, so I need to know ahead of time if a pet is sensitive or reactive around children. Requirements: Up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies) No intact dogs over 2 years old Must be safe to handle in a home environment I also use long leads when appropriate to safely allow freedom while maintaining control, which is helpful for recall and behavior work.

About: I’ve been a dog parent myself since I was 14. I have always loved helping family and friends take care of their pets. I raised my German shepherd from puppyhood, and more recently, I’ve been training my rescue dog, Thorn. I have experience working with puppies, reactive dogs, and dogs that need medication. Your dog’s needs will always come first! I just moved to the area and am searching for a permanent job, so I have plenty of daytime, weeknight, and weekend availability! I am not traveling over the holidays so I have availability to watch your pets if you’re traveling! In your home, I will make sure that your pets always have access to fresh water. I will feed them according to your schedule and any restrictions. I have experience working with dogs who have special needs, so I will be careful to follow any special directions or house rules. I will let them out to use the bathroom according to your schedule and/or as they indicate.

About: I just moved to Portland and I work remotely so I can definitely spend time with any pets I care for! Growing up my family always had pets and I loved taking care of them! My family currently has one dog and anytime I go back to Southern California to visit I love hanging out with her. Throughout my life I've always been the one to call for pet sitting when neighbors and friends go away on vacation. I really love taking care of their dogs and cats while they're away. Along with helping my friends and family take care of their pets I've also worked at a pet supply store where I interacted with animals daily. Before moving to Portland I lived in Bend where I had a good amount of repeat pet sitting gigs and I loved them like they were my own. Before moving to Oregon I lived in San Francisco for about 12 years. While living in San Francisco I volunteered with the SPCA which was definitely a great experience! I've always loved animals and I feel like I am just happier around them :D I currently work from home so I can spend all day everyday with the pets I care for! I love going on walks throughout the week and my work schedule is flexible so I can take your pet out anytime :) I follow all rules your pet currently has so it doesn’t disrupt their daily routine. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable while in my care.

About: Hello! My name is Allison, and I have decades of experience caring for animals of all kinds, including dogs, puppies, birds, hamsters, and farm animals. I grew up in a family that owned multiple pet stores, which gave me hands-on experience with animal care from a young age. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Your pet will be in safe, loving hands with me and will get plenty of attention, care, and cuddles! 🤎 I’m currently available full-time, including weekdays and weekends 😊 I’m home most of the day, so pets will get plenty of attention, supervision, and time to play or relax. I’m happy to crate dogs if that’s part of their routine, but otherwise they’re welcome to roam the house and enjoy time in the backyard. I’m flexible and always try to follow each pet’s normal schedule so they feel comfortable and at home! 🐾 I have a fully fenced in large backyard that your pet can explore! My house has plenty of space for your pet to stretch out and make themselves feel at home. I also live near a large dog park!

About: I have excellent references with over 20 years of experience walking, feeding, bathing, and grooming animals. I have worked with animals as young as 4 months old to as old as 18 years old and had to administer medication. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, horses, goats, fish, birds, and cows. I am a teacher who works from home so I am available any time during the week to stay over with plenty of breaks to let them out for play and potty time. I’ll be home all day so your pet babies will have lots of attention! I live in an apartment at this time so I will not be able to keep your animals here, but I am able to come to your home and be there as much or as little as you need me to be! I want what is best for your pet since I know they are part of your family. When you put your trust in me, I take that very seriously and anything you need directions wise will be followed since you know your pet best!

About: Hi! I’m Jamie, a lifelong animal lover with over 30 years of pet and house-sitting experience — and I truly mean lifelong. I grew up surrounded by animals and have cared for pets and homes for most of my life. My approach is calm, patient, and intuitive, making me especially attuned to the needs of senior pets, shy or sensitive animals, or pets who simply need extra TLC. I provide friendly, professional in-home care tailored to each pet’s personality and routine. From administering medication to long walks, from playful energy to quiet lap time, I adapt to meet your pet exactly where they are — whether young, old, quirky, or cuddly. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, barnyard animals, horses, and pets of all kinds — furry, feathered, scaled, or beyond — bringing the same calm, attentive care to each one. While I’m not a licensed trainer, I bring hands-on experience, training knowledge, and years of caregiving skills to every animal I meet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 5,541 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Yankton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Yankton. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Yankton after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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.

Every walker 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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Yankton. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

walkers 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 walker.
