“I am long overdue in leaving a review for Christina. She has been walking my dog twice a week* for the last year and she is awesome! She is super reliable and always shows up, rain or shine, snow or ice or subzero temps. My dog eagerly awaits her arrival and is so excited to see her!! *When I was super busy at work, she offered up additional days during the week to walk my dog which was a life saver! Christina loves and cares for my dog as if he were her own. During walks she tries to teach him new tricks and is eager to share what he learned. She often checks in after our vacations and holidays to see how he is doing and to let me know how excited she is to see him again. I feel so fortunate to have her to take care of my energetic pup!!”
“Jara walked out dog for several months while I was recovering from an injury. She was reliable and had great communication. Our dog loved her. We would definitely book her again.”
“Amanda has been wonderful with my dog and came through last minute to help with walks when I couldn’t do them. Kind, reliable, communicates well, and Henry is always happy to see her. I always know he’s in good hands!”
“Jessica is a wonderful dog walker! Our pups are excited to see her every time she comes. She even goes above and beyond and occasionally brings our packages inside when she comes by. We recommend her services highly!”
“I fell on the ice and messed up my knee so I needed someone to walk my dog at the last minute. Kiah so kindly filled in for me with my “must-have-a-walk” Dalmatian. Poppy was SO happy to see Kiah for her second walk already, which told me that I made a good choice. Thank you so much for helping me out in a pinch! Poppy and I will definitely be in touch again!”
About: With a lifetime of caring for dogs of all shapes and personalities, I know how important trust is. I show up on time, follow routines closely, and treat every dog like they’re my own. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m an early riser, so morning walks before my workday are one of my favorite ways to start the day. I also keep my weekends flexible and am available for morning and afternoon walks. This consistency helps me provide dependable, stress-free care for both you and your pup. When caring for pets, I follow your routines closely and keep things calm and consistent. I double check doors, gates, and leashes, and I pay close attention to each dogs body language with experience from Chihuahuas to great Danes, I know how to keep every pup, safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I have one large energetic Aussie. He taught me a lot about how to work with dogs that have aggressive tendencies. I also know how to groom pets and give them baths even the ones that don't like water. I trained him to do many tricks as a puppy and worked with obedience. I love high energy dogs that need long walks/ playtime or runs. I am taking a gap semester and am available full time. I plan on trying out new things and seeing new places. My schedule is flexible and am just trying to navigate a new place. I take care of pets by taking them out for multiple walks per day, making sure they have water and food. Playing with them and giving overall care.
About: I’m an experienced pet lover with a calm, nurturing presence and a deep respect for animals. I share my life with Bernie, my red standard poodle, who’s part social butterfly, part therapy dog, and 100% good boy. He’s taught me how important patience, consistency, and playfulness are when it comes to animal care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and even boarding depending on your pet’s needs. Whether your pup loves a long walk, needs medication, or just wants a cozy companion while you're away, I’m here to help. I’m dependable, communicative, and flexible—especially during the summer months. I take pride in treating every pet like family, creating a safe and loving environment where they can relax and thrive. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and energy levels—and I’m happy to tailor my care to your pet’s unique personality. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet! I’d love to learn more about your furry friend and how I can support you both. Right now I have a flexible schedule, so I can plan my days around what your pet needswhether it’s a morning stroll, a midday check-in, or overnight company. I know how important it is to have someone you trust with your furry family member, and I don’t take that lightly. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I take caring for pets seriously, whether I’m coming to your home or possibly hosting. I currently focus on walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, where your pet stays comfortable in their familiar space. At home, I live with my red standard poodle, Bernie. He’s great with other dogs, but since I have a small one-bedroom apartment, I only consider boarding calm, dog-friendly pets on a case-by-case basis. I'm happy to talk it through and see if it’s a good fit!
About: Hi! My name is Phouthavone, but I go by Kat! 🐾 I’ve been around and cared for dogs my entire life. I currently have a 7-year-old rescue dog who’s been part of my family for five years, as well as a 2-year-old cat—so I’m very familiar with caring for both dogs and cats and all their different personalities! Both of my fur babies have sensitive stomachs, so I understand how important it is to follow feeding instructions, dietary restrictions, and routines carefully. I’ll make sure your pets are happy, healthy, and well-fed while they’re in my care. I also have previous experience as a human caregiver, which has taught me a lot of skills that transfer naturally into pet care—patience, attentiveness, responsibility, following routines, and making sure the person (or pet!) in my care is comfortable and safe. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and will treat your fur babies like they’re my own. Whether they want playtime, walks, company, or just lots and lots of cuddles, I’m happy to give them all the attention they need. 🐶🐱💕 I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! I currently work part-time, so my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your fur babies! I’m available throughout the week and can work around different feeding, walking, and potty schedules. I’m also happy to spend extra time playing with them or just keeping them company and giving them lots of cuddles. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I’ll always follow any instructions you leave for me. I’m very attentive when it comes to feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, medications, walks, and anything else your pet may need. I also have a dog and cat of my own, so I know how nerve-racking it can be trusting someone else with your babies! I’ll treat them like I would want someone to treat mine and keep you updated while you’re away.
“Elena is so great to have walking my doggos! I love her pics & rover cards, she’s very thorough, and when one of my dogs was having a rough night she was so great in helping calm him down! Highly recommend”
About: Hello, my name is Caitlyn! I am a positive and easy going 31-year-old. Hoping to find some part time work at the moment. I have lived within South Minneapolis for the past six years. I love all animals and would love to care for your little or big fur babies. I have been a cat owner myself for about 10 years. I have also dog/cat sat for many family and friends. I have long term dog sat for up to two weeks and have over night sat as well. I am available on weekends and nights. I also have my own transportation. I am just hoping to make a little extra money to help pay off student loans. I work a hybrid schedule where I go into the office twice a week. The rest of week and weekends I am always home and available for care. I have no pets in my home. I live in a small apartment building in a quiet residential neighborhood, with nearby parks and walking paths. I have experience caring for dogs and cats. I love animals and would love to provide trustworthy care for you and your pets!
About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my genuine passion for animals combined with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs. I specialize in both puppy training and senior dog care, which means I’m not just here to watch over your dog I’m here to support their well-being at every stage of life. With puppies, I focus on positive reinforcement, helping them build confidence, learn basic commands, and feel safe in new environments. With senior dogs, I’m patient and attentive to their comfort, health routines, and any mobility challenges they may have. I also prioritize clear communication with pet parents, keeping you updated with photos, messages, and detailed notes so you always feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Above all, I treat every dog like family—with kindness, respect, and lots of love. I organize my days around making sure each dog in my care gets the attention, activity, and comfort they need—whether that means morning walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or simply quiet companionship. I set aside time every day for exercise, training, and one-on-one interaction to build trust and keep pets happy and mentally stimulated. On a weekly basis, I plan for grooming needs, restocking supplies, and adjusting routines to fit each pet’s personality and preferences. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is always to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where each animal feels comfortable and cared for. In My Home: I maintain a calm and pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play, rest, and explore. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, and preferred activities. I limit the number of pets I take at once to ensure personalized attention and a peaceful atmosphere. In My Client’s Home: I respect your home as if it were my own and follow your pet’s established routine to keep them as relaxed and happy as possible. I make sure they’re well-fed, exercised, and emotionally cared for. I also keep the space clean, send regular updates, and can handle light home tasks like bringing in mail or watering plants if needed. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, I treat them like family—with patience, love, and reliability.
“Kiirsten was absolutely amazing with our process! She was kind, attentive, and made sure she got plenty of exercise and love. We received updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”
About: I grew up with a family dog and now am a proud parent of two sweet kitties. I miss being around dogs and would love the chance to care for your fur babies! I work full time from home, generally 8-5. I am occasionally available for lunchtime or midday walks and definitely available for evening and weekend check ins! I have two cats that are shy around other animals so I cannot currently care for other animals in my home. In your home, I am happy to follow care instructions and make sure your pets feel safe, happy and entertained while you’re away!
“She is as always wonderful with our Samantha. Sammy has special elder dog needs and Alisha has been so patient and kind with her , you’d think she was her own.”
“Charlie loves walking with Tracy. She has a calming and positive nature that helps with his high energy. He watches out the window for her. I really appreciate it, along with her flexibility with my schedule.”
“If I could give 10 stars, I would. Henley is a very perceptive and sensitive dog who knows when he’s in the company of a real animal lover. Avita fits that bill perfectly. From the very start, he was happy and relaxed with her.🐶🐾💕 I highly recommend Avita!”

Kelly helped us out by walking our large puppy while we were away and grandma was watching the kids. One less thing on grandma’s to-do list made all the difference, and Kelly made it seamless & effortless. We will definitely use Kelly again the next time we need an extra hand!

We have had her walk our Australian Shepherd/German Shepherd twice now and we are totally impressed with her. We were nervous since she has never had anyone walk her before and she pretty scared of other people but she had no problem with Allison. I would recommend her to anyone!!!
Bailey was so wonderful to work with. She helped us out in a jam, covering walks for our dog when our dog walker was out of town for an extended period. She was so organized, professional, and helpful. She was very patient with our dog who is definitely a handful.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Richfield is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $31 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 5,508 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Richfield. 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 Richfield. 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 Richfield 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 Richfield. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
