Dog Walking in Richland

“I am extremely happy that I hired Shannon to walk my dog and highly recommend her. She was very accommodating and was able to fit Daisy in at the time I preferred. Shannon took her to a park where she could walk in the shade and avoid being out in full sun during the heat wave this past week. She communicated well on when she’d arrive and gave me a rundown on how things went afterwards. Daisy was excited to see Shannon arrive and tired out when she was dropped back off, which worked out just perfect for me!”

“After finding out my husband was being deployed and I was about to work really long shifts, we took a chance on the Rover app and met Amber. Being able to have Amber walk our dogs every work day has been a lifesaver. She is so reliable and our dogs love her.”

“Mindy has been walking our husky mix, Nova, for the past few months and she has cultivated a great relationship with Nova. Mindy is reliable, punctual, responsive to messages, and very caring with all our pets. I would definitely recommend Mindy as a dog walker.”

“Emerson is a joy to work with! We can’t wait to have her return to walk our pups. She is warm and a standout in her care of them. If you’ve got a new or old furry member of the family, I highly recommend you welcome her into the pack too!”

“Ysobel was very sweet with Rocco, and was very kind to take Rocco on a walk last minute. We appreciate her kindness and empathy towards Rocco. Rocco came back smiling and tired after his walk. Thank you we will be requesting her again ☺️”

“Sarah takes such good care of our Bella - both for occasional walks but also dog/house sitting at our home. We hosted Sarah in our home twice when we’ve been on trips and it is SO reassuring f to know that Bella is taken care of and calm with Sarah. When Sarah walks through the door Bella is happy to see her and when we come home it is clear Bella has been well watched after. And the house is as spotless as we left it. I have booked Sarah three times already and will use her again whenever she is available (but she is mighty popular—for good reason!)”

About: I've been pet sitting since I was 12 years old. I love spending time with animals making sure they feel loved and receive proper attention and stimulation even when their owners are gone. I have experience giving various types of medications such as pills and eye drops. I am currently on summer break and have a very flexible schedule; I am free weekends and holidays. I do not offer sitting in my home. As a responsible pet owner or caregiver, ensuring the well-being and happiness of pets is of utmost importance. I prioritize the following aspects of pet care: Nurturing Environment: Creating a safe and comfortable space for pets is vital. Exercise and Playtime: Pets need regular physical activity to maintain a healthy weight and stimulate their minds. In my own home and clients' homes, I dedicate time for play sessions, walks, or engaging activities. Love and Attention: Above all, pets thrive on love, attention, and companionship. I devote time to interact with pets, offering cuddles, praise, and positive reinforcement. This human-animal bond creates a sense of security and happiness for pets, enhancing their overall quality of life.

“Alana gave our pup a morning and evening walk while we were out of town for a few days. She was reliable and communicated well with us. Thanks Alana.”

“Emily is great! I needed someone last minute due to unfortunate circumstances within the family. Emily was flexible with us and incredibly easy to communicate with. She walked Bowser twice and I will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”

About: Growing up with them in the home, I have been taking care of dogs as far back as I can remember! I am skilled in keeping dogs active, fed and cared for and making sure they are happy and healthy. I also have experience with elderly dogs and understand how important it is to keep them safe and injury free. I am currently a senior in High School, so I’ll have plenty of free time to take care of your pups! I am currently available Monday-Friday any time after 2pm, and any time after 8am Saturday-Sunday! I have two friendly dogs who I love dearly. I make sure they are fed, let outside, and given their favorite treats! I also make sure to keep them active by playing with them in the backyard or going on walks.

“Mel has been SOOOOO awesome walking my dog a couple of times a week. Very responsive, thoughtful, and my dog loves her!”

About: I've taken care of my neighbor's dogs and cats since I was 15 year old. My family and neighbors have relied on me while on their vacations. I work part time as a Cashier, Thursday- Monday mornings sometimes I work nights. I'm available best on the weekends to watch my clients pets. My dogs have an unground vence, my yard is not fence in. So I try to stay only to walking and pet-sitting at clients houses.

About: I have experience with animals of all ages from newborn pups to senior cats I’ve cared for them all! I am not intimidated by large and/or talkative pets and I have many belly rubs to give! I commit Monday-Thursday to pet sitting through Rover and another professional pet sitting company and work Friday-Sunday as a server at a restaurant but i am willing to work around my schedule to provide services for your pets. I get the things I need done throughout the day in between my sitting/walking appointments I will treat their pets the same as I would treat my own, I would treat their house in the same manner. If I saw a mess made by the pets or a mess that I believe may be hazardous to the pets I feel I have the responsibility to clean it up as best as I can. I will leave the house secured and safe for the pets by making sure all doors are locked and all items that the pets could get into are put away out of reach.

“Lindsey was great! Penny looked like she had a great time and would book again!”

About: What sets me apart is my dedication to giving each pet personalized, loving care based on their unique personality and needs. I don’t just “watch” pets—I connect with them. Whether it’s sticking to their exact routine, noticing small behavior changes, or giving them extra snuggles (or space!), I’m fully present and attentive. I also believe communication is key—I keep owners updated with thoughtful messages and photos so they feel completely at ease. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort are always my top priority. Pet care is a flexible and fulfilling part of my life that fits well around my full-time job. I carefully schedule pet sitting around my work hours—mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays—so pets receive consistent, loving attention when their owners are away. I prioritize clear communication, punctual visits, and quality time with every animal I care for. Balancing both roles allows me to stay reliable, organized, and fully committed to every pet I look after. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I follow their usual routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions like medications or training cues. I take time to bond with each pet, paying attention to their body language and personality so I can respond to their needs with patience and kindness. I also keep things clean, calm, and consistent, and I always send updates with photos so pet parents feel connected and reassured.

About: I’ve only cared for a dog when we use to have one sadly he passes. I will gladly put those skills in use for your dog. Pet care will go perfectly in my schedule either before or after school, even during my lunch if needed. I will gladly make time for your pets. In my home we treat pets how we would treat another human with respect and giving all the love they need. We give what they need and more.

About: I am certified in pet CPR and have completed in 1 year of pre-vet education in high school. I know how to do basic dog training. I am a high school student so I am available on the weekdays in the afternoon and evening. For weekends I’m available at any time. I can do 45-1hr of walking and playing fetch. I’ll make sure your dog gets clean water and gets fed the time you need me to.

About: As a lifelong animal lover with a passion for providing unparalleled care, I bring a unique warmth and dedication to every pet-sitting experience. My journey with animals began at a young age, and I was helping our neighbors with their pets since I was eight! What sets me apart on Rover is my commitment to creating a family-like environment where your beloved pets feel right at home. I have fostered dogs for years with a local rescue, so I am familiar with the various needs each furry friend may need and make sure they feel secure when in new situations. From cozy cuddles to playful adventures, I prioritize comfort and companionship, ensuring that each guest receives the love and attention they deserve. With me, your pet isn't just a guest – they're a cherished and welcome member of our family, where warmth, comfort, and genuine care await. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily and weekly routine as an essential part of our family life. Just like any other family member, our furry friends are warmly welcomed to participate in our daily activities. Whether it's accompanying me on the porch with my morning coffee, enjoying cozy cuddle sessions in the evenings while we play board games, or exploring the sights and smells of our backyard while we garden and play, their well-being is always a top priority. Scheduled feeding times, play sessions, and lots of snuggles are seamlessly woven into our daily schedule, ensuring that our furry guests receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. By incorporating pet care into our routine, we not only strengthen our bond with our pets but also enrich our own lives with their joy and companionship. Our daily routine includes supervised outdoor playtime in the yard, and ample opportunities for socialization and interaction. Your pet will have the companionship of our two active dogs, in-person care around the clock, scheduled feedings, fresh water, medication administration, and a secure sleeping environment. We have two active dogs and one elderly dog, all non-aggressive and friendly. I have instilled respect for animals in my two young children and supervise their interaction with all guests, making our home a welcoming haven for pets.

About: I’ve helped dog-sit my friends and families dogs since I was in middle school! I have a little shih-poo of my own and adore her. I work from home so I have a lot of flexibility with my schedule and can change my daily routine to fit any pets’ schedule. I always treat any pet with love and care as if they were my own pet. I am a rule follower so will always stick to what rules you give me for your pet.
