“Shelley was a wonderful sitter, she did a great job taking care of our pup who's a bit skeptical of new people & not used to being alone. She was very sweet, attentive, & took great care of him. Would highly recommend! Thanks Shelley!”


“Lexi replied quickly to my request, and was super friendly and prompt! She sent great pictures of our dog during her 30-minute check in. Thank you for taking care of our Willie!”

“First time using Rover and Marsha made it comfortable and easy. Met us and the dogs before sitting and sent us pictures and it was a great experience and I will definitely book with her again. Thank you ?”

About: I grew up on a farm, where caring for animals was simply part of everyday life. From livestock and horses to dogs, cats, birds, and small animals, I learned early that every animal has its own personality and needs. Today, I also share my home with exotic pets (ferrets) which has given me experience with specialized care, enrichment, and close attention to health and behavior. Whether your pet is young, energetic, shy, or enjoys a slower pace, I provide patient, attentive care tailored to their routine. I'll follow your instructions carefully, treat your pet like family, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. As a self-employed business owner, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care rather than trying to fit them in between other commitments. That flexibility means I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits, maintain your pet's normal routine, and provide reliable, consistent care. Whether it's a walk, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company, I'll make sure they receive the attention they deserve while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I'll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, potty breaks, and any special preferences or restrictions. I understand that staying in a familiar environment helps many pets feel more relaxed while you're away, so I strive to keep their routine as normal as possible. I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own, ensure doors and gates remain secure, use leashes and harnesses as directed, and always keep a close eye on your pet's well-being. You'll receive regular photo and text updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving attentive, dependable care.
About: I've cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from playful puppies to calm seniors. Whether it's daily walks, feeding, giving medication, or spending some quality play time, I am attentive to every pet's unique needs. My goal is always to ensure every dog feels safe loved, and well cared for. As a college student currently on summer break, I have a very open and flexible schedule. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time to your pet(s), whether that means staying with them all day or providing frequent visits. I'm happy to tailor my care to fit your pet's routine and needs, making sure they feel comfortable and loved while you're away. When I dog or cat sit at your home, I make sure to keep your pet safe and comfortable by sticking to their routine. I will always be respectful of your space and will keep things clean and tidy. I also like to keep you updated so you know how your furry friend(s) is doing while you're away!
“Best pet sitter I have ever had! The dogs loved them and were always happy to see them come in. I got a lot of pictures of them while I was away and I will definitely be using them again when I need them!”

About: I love animals and they love me! I have been pet sitting for 3 years and have several repeat clients. I have had medical needy dogs I care for, senior dogs, and so many more. I love to help reduce their stress when their family is gone. I make it my job. I am there for the pets so I work my routine around them. Our pets are our family members and I work to give them the care and love they desire while the family is absent. I ask clients questions before hand, ask for a full list of instructions of what the pets require at bed time, meal time, potty time, and kenneling. I ask to meet the clients pets before the pet sitting date so their pets have met me and ask them to show me where they keep all the pet supplies so I can make sure they can leave their pets in my care without having to worry about a thing.
About: Please don’t allow my reduced star rating to deter you from booking with me! I unfortunately took on a couple jobs that I shouldn’t have with dogs with behavior issues and the owners ended up blaming me although I provided the best care possible. :( I am now more diligent in asking the necessary questions before accepting a job. I do this because I love animals and also to earn very much needed extra income for my family of 8. I have had pets all my life including dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, hamsters, frogs, and turtles. I also grew up in a small farm town for a good part of my childhood and was around a lot of farm animals. I currently have 1 dog of my own who is friendly and playful, as well as kids who can help keep your fur babies active and having fun. We live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can work with your needs. I have mostly open availability on the weekends and also for boarding or overnight care. I have a yard with room to run, although it isn’t fenced, we do have an outdoor kennel area and a dog run line. I’m also able to crate pets inside if needed. I can also take dogs for walks around our quiet, private neighborhood, or to the dog park for more room to run.

I will use the $$ towards college :) thank you! I am looking forward to hanging out and taking care of new fur babies ! Super excited I’ll be driving to you and would love to meet your fur baby. I enjoy keeping them active while they are with me. Safety is key for me

I highly recommend Kacie! She went above and beyond every day and sent me photos and texts with excellent communication throughout the entire booking. It's clear that Kacie truly cares about the pets she looks after. Zeke was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while I was away. I would not hesitate to trust Kacie with Zeke in the future!

DeAnna very kindly came over to meet all of our littles before coming by to feed them for the first time. We have a fear aggressive pitty and getting adults to ignore her isn’t always as easy as it should be. DeAnna was wonderful in letting our pitty take her time in coming to DeAnna when she was ready. I have a lot of anxiety with people and my pitty since she can be a butt at first. DeAnna eliminated all my anxiety and was just… great. She was also extremely gentle with our “covid baby” who didn’t have a lot of human socialization as a puppy and can be skittish with new adults. They both loved her! Day of, she arrived right on time, fed as asked, played with the dogs outside, and sent lots of photos. Cannot recommend her enough and will definitely book her again!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Richland stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Richland choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
