“Dakota did a wonderful job! She was friendly and very capable with our dog Koa. I was always in the loop and updated often regarding the visits. I would absolutely recommend her for any rover services you need.”
About: I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember! Growing up surrounded by different types of pets has given me over 20 years of personal experience caring for animals and understanding the importance of providing them with love, patience, and attention. I understand that pets aren’t just animals; they’re family. When someone trusts me to care for their furry companion, I take that responsibility seriously. I’m comfortable with everyday pet care responsibilities, including feeding, walking, potty breaks, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. My goal is to provide a positive, stress-free experience for both you and your pet by treating them with the same kindness, attention, and care I would give my own. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, some extra playtime, or simply companionship and affection, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve! I currently have a flexible schedule and am available seven days a week, from mornings through evenings! Whether you need daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended pet sitting, I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s needs. With the holidays approaching, I’m also accepting holiday bookings! My priority is providing reliable, loving care while keeping your pets happy, comfortable, and safe while you’re away. 🐾 As a pet owner of two dogs and a cat, I understand how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. I also have experience caring for pets through Rover, including dogs and a guinea pig! I always prioritize each pet’s individual needs, routines, and safety. Whether caring for your pets in my home or yours, I treat them like family. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry loved ones are in caring, reliable hands! ❤️

“Laura did an awesome job taking care of my kitty, Cantaloupe. She was always there on time, sent wonderful pictures and gave him so much love and attention. I would definitely recommend hiring Laura as your pet sitter.”
About: I have a lot of experience in pet sitting for other people, but most of my experience, especially for senior dogs was with my own pup, up until his recent decent to heaven I did a lot of things for him to keep him happy and comfortable, bathing feeding, lots of lifting (he was a big boy lol) and for a little I had to help him pee and clean up accidents quite a bit, so I have a lot of understanding in pet care. I’m also good with cats, I know the signs of when to give space and am very patient, and pretty fast if your pets a runner. I work part time and have lots of free time to help you with your pets! Weekdays especially! But between shifts I’m also available during weekends My home has a fenced back yard with a good amount of space, I have a super friendly mini golden doodle, who would love to be friends, there’s also nothing fragile that pets could easily break here.

About: I've been a pet parent since I was a child. Always had dogs and cats in my home, providing the love and care they deserve. I am skilled at providing medications. I am recently retired and looking for a little extra income, as well as spending time with animals, as I can't seem to get enough, even with the animals I currently have.

I offer pet sitting at your home within the TriCities area, as well as dog walking. I will treat your furry family member like my own.
About: I have had animal experience since I was a child, although I wasn’t aloud to keep any of the critters I brought home. I’ve had numerous Dogs and currently own two cats. I work at Benton Franklin Humane Society and have since August of 2022, where I train and care for the dogs in the mean time of helping them find a home. I just moved to Washington last year from Colorado, where I was a kennel technician at “City Bark” where I cared for others pets at our doggy day care. Something that sets me apart from other sitters would be that I could give your “furbaby” a different view everyday, whether that’s different smells, toys, treats, or even a day or play date with our well behaved shelter dogs. My goal and purpose is to make sure your fur baby has relaxation, motivation, and has reduce stress, and anxiety. I’m currently available any day of the week at any time. Week days from 6am to 9pm and weekends 6am to midnight, what ever you may need. I would love to care for your pet in a huge yard, unfortunately I’m working towards that right now, but I know tons of great parks, dog parks, and trails for now.
About: I grew up with animals and have taken care of animals of all kids since I was a kid.

I have a part time job but am available most times during the day and always available at night, my schedule is pretty flexible and I will always make your animal my priority. I have a fenced in back yard in my personal house. I have a mid sized Sudan that can fit any sized breed if they are needed to be taken anywhere.
About: I've had pets since I was born, so usually i'm quick to be befriended by most animals. Over the years I have had experience with taking care of many pets including dogs, cats, rabbits and I’m always loving and attentive with all of them! I am available for regular walks in Tri-cities and overnight stays in both my camper home/your home! I am also available for walks weekdays between 7am-5pm weekdays (depending on location). Weekends I am available from 7am-3pm, unless boarding which is much more flexible! Care for your pets will be given with my absolute undivided attention! Pets are always welcome in my camper home, which sits on a grassed garden area in lovely Benton City. I kindly ask that supplies (including doggy bags, crates and bowls) should be provided by you upon arrival, as well as anything your pet may find comforting to have with them.
About: Hello, I’m Bella. I've been a dog lover since I was a child, I would always say hello to all the dogs walking in the neighborhood and l've been a dog owner since 2015. I absolutely love getting to know dogs, and walking them. Exercising pets as needed, which includes taking dogs out for regular walks. Providing regular updates to pet owners, which include communicating with them telephonically or via email as well as sending video and photos. I can't wait to get to know your companion and I hope to make a new dog friend. I currently work in the veterinary field, I have been a veterinary assistant for 5 years now and I’m very well trained on how to administer medications and how to take care of seizure, diabetic and heathly animals . I currently work 4 10s and if I’m watching pets I usally like to take them to work. I’m very flexible on accommodating, you’re pets needs. I have a big backyard that is fully fenced. My dogs are not dog aggressive they know boundaries and I have three cameras just in case if anything happens.
About: I’ve raised and trained my own (at the age of 8) and other dogs starting at 15yrs of age! I enjoy walking, bathing, feeding and even napping with my furry friends:) I love being able to spend time with other peoples pets when they aren’t able to give them the attention/time due to responsibilities. I’ve stayed at homes for 2+ weeks to months when families went out of town or country. I have also done walks & drop-ins. I love dogs so much I feel that just a drop in isn’t enough time for me to get to know your pet :’) I usually only work, workout, and hangout with family or friends which means I’d have availability to be able to house sit/drop-in & dog walk :) Unfortunately, I wouldn’t be able to dog sit at my home due to having a 14 year old corgi/dachshund. Training for my fur baby started when I was 8 years old. I have enjoyed teaching and correcting him the last 15 years. He is my bestfriend! Professionally I’ve have 5 years of experience with many other pets but for my own I have 14. During visits I will make sure your dog has been fed, gone out to the yard and has enjoyed my company. :)
About: I have had 20 years of one on one care of numerous different dogs and breeds. I have trained puppies and have done hospice care for my senior dogs. My love for dogs runs deeper than words can express. I have administrated medication in abundance of creative ways to administer. Walks and exercise is so important for the health of dogs and humans alike. It only takes about 5 minutes of time for dogs to get comfortable with me. They instantly feel the warmth, love, comfort and safety I am able to create, from years of knowing how to get to know them. I love exploring and hiking and I always love to have company that has four legs. I love to sleep with snuggle bears. If that is not something that is preferred I have had crated dogs and am comfortable not sleeping with them too. I welcome and respect your ways of caring for your pet and look forward to making your time away as comfortable and confident as possible. I am fortunate to have schedule flexibility. It is a pleasure to work with my client’s humans’ in advance in order to be prepared and meet their needs and expectations. I am able to come care for your pet where you are. I have limited space at my home. I can take care of their needs in the comfort of their known environment

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!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Richland is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 per visit. 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 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 October 2026, there are 303 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Richland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
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 .
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.
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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
