About: *MUST MEET ME AND MY LAB IN PUBLIC PRIOR TO BOOKING*. Although my lab, Hela loves everyone, unfortunately not every dog loves her so please set a meeting prior to booking! I'm flexible with times and locations! I offer attention to detail and love for pups. I'm the pup mom that knows all my dogs allergies and favorite foods! I've had dogs my entire life and even as a kid began training them! My friends always choose me when they are going out of town to watch their pups. I actually decided to join Rover after one of the pups I watch dads suggested I should! I work from home with my black lab who loves everyone and is a gentle soul (her 2 besties are a min pin and a golden retriever) and currently she is the only animal in my house. We take hourly stretch breaks to pee and play a little ball! I have a fenced yard with grass. If you'd like, I'll send cute pictures throughout the day too! Also if allowed, the pups go with me to get weekly pups cups from Starbs. I work from home and have a black lab, so all day everyday I do pet care. My job fortunately makes it easy to interact with thr pups and make sure their needs are taken care of. Prior to recently (they moved), I was watching a golden retriever (Duke) along with my lab every week day and his dad is who suggested I start rover as he would often say "I know my buddy is safe and happy here, he has the best of time". Currently, when we have a guest I make sure there food is prepared and on time. We take hourly potty and play breaks (more if requested - I have a buzzer my dog presses). The rest of the day the pups are free to roam the house with me. I have dog beds (including some in my office), thousands of toys (my dog unfortunately does not destroy anything lol), and when we have an overnight guest, the pups sleep in the bed with me (unless otherwise requested). I love pups and have always wanted more but babysitting is a happy medium!
“Yan is very professional and nice. I brought my dog for a little tryout visit and it went very well. She gave me feedback and we discussed future visits and I was very grateful for the exchange. My dog is usually very shy and seemed to quickly warm up to Yan and her three dogs. She provided photos and also took him for a walk.”
About: What sets me apart is the calm, consistent care I provide. I’m retired, home most of the day, and treat every dog like family—prioritizing safety, routines, and genuine affection so pets feel truly at ease. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Being retired means I’m home most of the day, allowing plenty of time for walks, play, meals, cuddles, and attentive, unrushed care. 🐶🐾 Safety and trust guide every visit, at home or drop-ins. I follow routines, secure doors and leashes, supervise closely, and keep environments calm, clean, and stress-free—so pets feel safe and loved. 🐾
About: I care for pets as if thry were family. I enjoy playing with them, understanding their personalities and emotions, and creating a safe and happy environment for them to grow and feel comfortable. I'm attentive to theri health and behavior, and I'm able to stay calm and respond respondibly in unexpected situations. My availability is very flexible. I am usually available anytime after 9 a.m., and i can adjust my schedule when needed. I attend church on sunday mornings, but i am otherwise fully available and open to working around different schedules. I have plenty of space for dogs and cats to move around comfortably. I clean my home three times a week to keep the environment clean and safe. I can also provide all essential supplies, including food, toys, and other necessary item to ensure their comfort and well-being.
“I loved all the updates from Mariah while Ra was at daycare. He was so genuinely happy and contented when I brought him home after. Slept really solid all night too. I’m impressed with how well he did and I would definitely book with Mariah again.”
About: Hello, Thanks for checking my profile. To start, I'm always willing to review a request even if it's outside of my profile per se. So if you think that it's just slightly outside my parameters, please feel free to just send me a message, glad to chat at the very least. I am no longer accepting large breed dogs, with the exception of previous clients. If you think your dog is just on the cusp of a large breed, please let me know and we might be able to work something out. I am not boarding cats at this time, as I could not be sure I could isolate them from my other pets well enough if I had to. I’m the proud owner of two wonderful dogs: Indy, a 6-year-old Papillon, and Loki, a 3-year-old Corgi. Indy is a calm, observant pup, while Loki is playful and inquisitive, always eager for attention. I raised both dogs from six weeks of age and work from home full-time, so I’m always present to give pets the attention they deserve. Before Indy and Loki, I cared for two cats who each lived to 18 years old, providing them with a happy, well-loved life. During that time, I became experienced with administering insulin shots, pills, capsules, and liquid medications, and I’m attentive to the subtle behaviors and patterns that signal a pet’s needs. My home features multiple pet gates for safe separation when needed, a second floor for flexible space, and a large, fully fenced backyard with lush grass. I live in a quiet, flat, dog walk friendly neighborhood . While I’m not currently sitting cats, I’m happy to provide dogs with consistent care, attention, food, and any required medication. Because I work from home, I can accommodate nearly any reasonable request. I am able to take frequent breaks and often spend that time playing with my two dogs or taking them on walks. They are let out at regular intervals and fed twice a day. I can keep your pet within my view at all times while I’m home and can accommodate a crate if you prefer. During the day, my dogs usually rest at my feet or on a nearby bed until our first walk. Your pet is welcome to stay with me or lounge wherever they’re comfortable on the first floor of my home. If needed, I can separate pets by floor or with pet gates to avoid direct interactions.

About: My name is Kellen and I live with my wife, daughter and our two puppies, Mya and Dexter. Dexter is an English Mastiff/German Shepard mix and Mya is a Black Lab/Husky mix. They love to lounge around all day and go on adventures with the family!!! Eating seems to be their primary motivation in life. 🤣 I have had many puppies in my life and have loved each one with my whole heart. In the past I have also had ferrets, for about 8 years when I was in college. I work during the week from 5am-4pm and am free all weekends and weeknights after 4pm. I have experience with all different types, sizes and temperaments of dogs. My wife is home full time so if your puppy is staying with us during the week there will always be someone with them at all times. Dexter is not very keen on any dog bigger than his sister and a meet and greet to determine if he would be ok with a big dog would be advised. Mya loves all dogs and loves to play play play! Our little girls also adores dogs and is very gentle and nice with ours, much to our surprise as we thought she may pound on them or pull and poke at them, but she’s so sweet and gentle when petting and talking (babbling) to them. We go on frequent walks and potty breaks with our puppies and they would love some company for those trips! Any other questions you may have, don’t hesitate to ask! I am home during the day and have two pups of my own, pet care happens all day every day in our house that’s for sure 😂 I have a fenced yard and two other pups to have fun with. Two kids will expend any extra energy that your pups may have 🤣
“Our Beagle, Remy loves going to Natalie's! She takes great care of him, she always sends me photos to check in and they are always photos of him having a blast. He comes home ready for bed which is always a huge plus. I would highly recommend Natalie as I am a repeat customer and will always use her services when I go on business trips! ”
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages from puppy training to end of life. I love them and would have more than two if I could. I am retired & have a very flexible schedule. I have time to walk, bathe & love dogs. I can take "guests" in my home for a night, week or weekend. I have two small dogs of my own, a comfortable home & a fully fenced backyard. Additionally, my dogs are used to regular exercise. We walk along the river every morning for an hour.
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.
“Trisha and Daniel took amazing care of my dog! They were very attentive and loving, sending updates during the day. I especially appreciated the opportunity for the meet and greet beforehand to make sure she was comfortable. Will absolutely rebook with them in the future!”
About: I have had dogs in my home for the majority of my life and loved every minute of it. After recently losing our girl to old age I’ve been missing time with fur babies. They really are the best! I’ve joined Rover to love on other fur babies and get some steps in all at the same time! I currently work as a medical device rep so my schedule is extremely variable and based on if I have cases scheduled or not. I have found myself working much less than I’m used to and because of that I’m looking to pick up a new hobby/side hustle as I enjoy keeping myself busy. I would prefer to meet any fur babies for the first time with the owner present. This is very important to me. I want to feel comfortable with your dog and build some trust. My biggest priority is to keep myself and your dog safe.
About: I’m a caring, fun pet sitter and walker that has lots of experience with large and small, young and senior dogs. I have an extremely flexible schedule working from home, allowing for drop-in walks or all day pet sitting! I also have experience in caring for cats. I currently work from home and have full availability to care for pets. I have time to go out for regular walks, drop ins, etc. I live in a two-story house in west Pasco with a very large, fully fenced-in backyard. Dogs love to run around and play fetch, chase and more!
“Once again Ryder’s stay was so much fun. He came home one sleepy puppy. I would drive an hour plus when Ryder needs puppy sat if it meant Lori (and family) could watch him. She is truly passionate about each dog that walks through her door.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Richland
We love Makenna! But even more importantly we know that our pup, Finley, loves her too. She was so happy and excited when we dropped her off and she saw Makenna. It really helped us feel comfortable and know our sweet pup was in good hands. Makenna gives updates and sends pictures. Her communication throughout the boarding process is exceptional. We will continue to entrust Finley to her care whenever we go out of town. Thanks, Makenna!❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Richland on Rover is $33.3 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Richland commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 100 sitters in Richland, 97% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
