About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for just over three years! My mom works at a dog kennel, and introduced me to fantastic clients. My main services are Boarding, and Dog sitting. But I’m open to whatever you need me for! In total I’ve had around 15 long term clients. I’m currently wanting to get more experience and hopefully create a new client base! :) I’m currently in school full time, so I’m free almost always, as long as I have my laptop or phone on me! I’m almost always available to do walks, check ins, or any form of dog sitting needed. My schedule is very flexible :) I currently have 4 cats, if needed, (in the case of boarding) I can always create a designated space for your pet to stay comfortable and happy during. As for your own home, I’m very detail oriented, so any detailed information and instructions you can provide of your pet’s routine, and day to day, would be great!

I am available to take care of your pet babies overnight and in the morning to afternoon to early evening I give all our cats and dog the best treatment possible, I wake up and feed them, take our dog on walks, cuddle up with the kitties while doing homework and spend the night with all of them sleeping in my bed with me (I love them so much I let them sleep on my pillow and steal 90% of the bed space😂)

About: I’ve never been without pets in my life. I have been taking care of (feeding, walking, etc.) them since I was a little kid! I’ve helped with cats, dogs, and bunnies. All of our pets were raised from babies and cared for until they passed away. I’ve given sick pets pills and other medications. I know how important it is for pets to get exercise and enrichment! I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule! I have my own transportation with a reliable vehicle and can swing by for a quick visit or plan a longer stay to care for your pet! I can adjust to your environment! I am a traveler and have moved around so I understand apartment living and family-style homes and how that can affect pet care. I can feed, walk, and play with your pet no matter what that looks like.
“I had the pleasure of having Lilly, walk my Dog Simon 3-4xs a week for 2 months. She was always punctual on timing and if she was ever running behind she would make sure to give a notice. Most importantly I enjoyed seeing Simòn happy upon her arrival, tail wagging through my Furbo Dog camera, she always greeted him with scratches and made sure to give him a treat before leaving. I appreciated the photos during the walks around the neighborhood or if Simòn was being lazy instead of ending the walk she would sit outside with him while he sun bathed giving him scratches. Lilly thank you so much for helping me out during this time!”
“Chris has been absolutely fantastic with our dog and a huge help to our family. He comes by twice a week like clockwork to walk and feed our dog, and he’s consistently punctual, reliable, and easy to communicate with. Our dog clearly enjoys his time with Chris, and it gives me comfort knowing he’s in good hands. Highly recomended.”
“I wish I could rate him more than 5⭐️ Eugene was excellent, he was always on-time, and answered to my messages very fast. These aspects are very important to me. There was a time that my neighborhood said Bella is crying and I had to ask Eugene to go and check on her. This was not part of the schedule but Eugene showed care and was willing to walk over my place and take her for a walk. In general I’m very happy to find such a great dog-walker for my baby girl. 🥰🥰”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Yocum on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 8,856 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Yocum. 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 Yocum. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Yocum.

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 Yocum. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
