“Patrick and his wife, Jessica are great sitters!!! My Lucy had a wonderful time with them. I recently moved to Richland and was a bit worried about not knowing anyone in the area who could look after my Lucy. But when I met Patrick and his wife, I knew Lucy was in the best hands—and I was right. Their home is lovely and spacious, and Lucy ran around happily and played frisbee. I recommend Patrick 100%.”
“Makena was wonderful! She was very flexible and communicative, willing to do anything Puddles needed, and provided a wonderful environment for puddles to thrive and play. I’ll be returning!”
“Oh my goodness I think our fur baby has found his home away from home! Sue and John are amazing, they sent lots of pictures and kept us posted everyday. I highly recommend them!”
“Natalie did a wonderful job! I have an old dog who doesn’t do great with new things and she was very patient with him. Her dogs were great with him as well. I’m very happy with how everything went and will definitely use Natalie again!”
“Alicia was able to care for my dog with one day notice. I appreciate her prompt response and communication. My dog seemed comfortable at her house, we got updates and pictures. Overall we are satisfied with her service.”
“Dakota - and I - LOVE Brittany and her family. She loves dogs and is wonderful with ours. I couldn't ask for a more caring and communicative sitter. We have had several short stays with her but this time she had our boy for 2 ½ weeks, and everything was great. Dakota will be back!”
“Paulina watched our dogs last minute and through difficult circumstances. She was understanding, personable, and willing to go above and beyond to help us. We’d highly recommend her for your pets.”
About: Pets have always brought me a lot of happiness, and that's why I love to help take care of them. Until recently, I have always had a dog to take care of in my life, and now I'd love to look after yours! :) Helping dogs exercise, making sure they are loved, clean and happy are very important to me. Dogs put so much good into this world, so they deserve all the love we can possibly give them! Also I love cats! Waking up and making sure your furry friend is fed, given morning pets, and a walk if needed. We can play and have fun during the day and make sure we get to bed at a good time. Keeping on careful eye on your pet is very important to me! Also I genuinely enjoy the company of animals so there will be lots of hanging out, playing & potty breaks. I keep my space very clean & pet friendly.
“Britney was amazing with my doggies, very friendly and kind. I definitely recommend her for your doggies and I felt safe leaving them with her. She was very prompt and kept me updated with pictures. I will definitely use her again”
About: My son is fundraising for his high school trip. I am welcoming pets into our home as part of his effort to raise money to apply toward his trip. I do not currently have any other animals at home, but I have had dogs for most of the last 30 years. I have trained puppies to adult dogs and taken classes for each of the stages the dogs went through. Cared for my elderly dog until she passed. I have fostered dogs and cared for family pets when they went on deployments. Nice big fenced yard. Active family who will play with and love on your pets while you are away. I offer part-time, full-time, weekend, and overnight care. I can also do drop in visits, overnight sitting, dog walking, puppy care, and administering medication. I am certified in first aid/CPR have over 30 years of experience with pets, have passed a background check for work in the medical industry and after school groups, and lots of experience administering pet medications.
“Mel and Laurie were awesome! Our pup was so happy at their house, and I can tell she had so much fun with them. Communication was great and I’m sure Susan can’t wait to be back! Our trip out of town was amazing knowing our pup was safe, loved on and having so much fun. We will definitely be rebooking with Mel and Laurie again!”
“Lisa took exceptional care of Mellow—she was attentive to her needs and ensured she remained comfortable throughout. She was also very flexible with our schedule and kept us reassured with regular updates and photos.”
About: Hello, Not sure how to genuinely list my experience as it spans a lifetime of owning and caring for dogs and cats. If I were to assign a number without aging myself... it would be about a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all kinds. :) Professionally, I worked for Kadlec Regional Medical Center for 12 years in nutrition services. In 2022, I left my role to be at home with our youngest child, and now that child is about to start school. Now I'm reentering into the workforce aligning with a passion and skill of mine. In addition to specifically supporting our household these past three years, I have also provided part time pet sitting, dog walking, bathing, and light grooming for friends and family. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and personalized care. Whether you're booking a stop by visit, a walk, or short stay, my goal is to make sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you're away. Reliability and communication are especially important to me. I understand how much trust goes into leaving your pet in someone else's care, so I make it a priority to be dependable, follow routines closely, respond, and provide updates so you can have peace of mind. I genuinely care about the well-being of both pets and their owners, and I look forward to building trusted relationships with the families I serve. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I keep my schedule flexible for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I make it a priority to be dependable and on time. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their routines and follow all instructions closely to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I pay attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications if needed, and any specific preferences. I prioritize safety, clear communication, and providing a calm, caring environment where pets can feel relaxed while their owners are away.
“Anastasia was super sweet to send pictures and updates every day. She asked me about concerns to ensure his happiness and health, which I really appreciated, and went on extra walks with him. Hiro has often come home sick or injured after Rover stays, but with Anastasia he was happy and healthy!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I could remember. I currently have three dogs and they always enjoy having another friend come over to hang out with! I work full time Monday through Thursday but am flexible with being able to work from home on specific days. Our weekends are spent at home spending time in the yard or going on walks in our local neighborhood parks. I have a fenced yard that holds a garden and chicken coop that gives our dogs a great spot for new smells. Dogs are all welcome to stay inside if that is their preference and we are able to have them in their crate if preferred.
“I dropped the ball on finding a sitter for our extra energetic fur baby, and Liz was gracious to take her with just a few days notice. She was very nice and communication was great! Aya seemed like her normal self when we picked her up, not to stressed, or overly anxious to leave.”
About: I currently work at a local tri cites vet and have been taking care of animals my whole life:) I have two pets currently my little kitty ash and my golden boy River I’m lucky to have a job where I can bring my animals to work with me so when I only have my river I take him with me to keep me company:) Taking him out for potty breaks and social time multiple times a day! I have a fenced in back area and have a 2 year old golden retriever to keep you fur friends company!! I am also good with training young pups
About: I am from Tri Cities and have a passion for animals! I have 2 cats and two dachshunds of my own. I have watched a few of my friends dogs in the past, ranging different sizes. I would love to take your dog(s) for a walk! I currently work full time Mon- Fri, with time available after work or on weekends through the day. Would love to incorporate more animals in to my life since I cannot adopt anymore! We have a big house and fenced yard for animals to enjoy. Both of my cats are indoors and escape artists, so I am used to being very careful and attentive. I understand it is nerve wracking to have someone else watch over your pets and hope that they don’t escape their sight. I promise to do my very best to provide an attentive, loving, friendly approach with your animals. Both of my dogs are Dachsunds, meaning I am used to the most stubborn dog on the planet. I also understand the importance of home modifications for them to live happily and safely with us; so rest assured that I can relate to specific requests and attention to detail when caring for your babies.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Richland
We appreciated Mariah taking care of our dogs Thor and Piper, and felt she did a wonderful job. She was very attentive, prompt with communication, and sent us lots of fun pictures which made us feel at ease. Our dogs seemed very comfortable in her home, and they came back happy and content. Thank you, Mariah and family!
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Cooper! She and her kids loved on him, played with him, and took him on walks during his 4-night stay. It was so comforting knowing he was being treated like part of the family. We came home to a happy, well-loved pup. We highly recommend her! ❤️🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Richland is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $61 per night. On Rover, sitters 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 of October 2026, there are 110 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Richland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
98% of sitters in Richland can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Richland home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Richland.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Richland sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
