He was incredibly responsive, communicative, and accommodating when I needed a last-minute drop-in for my dogs. He adjusted his schedule without hesitation, kept me updated, and gave me peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of. I would absolutely book with him again

About: I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have grown up with them since I was a little girl. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me because they're truly part of the family. During high school, I regularly dog sat for neighbors, friends, and family, and I still love helping care for their pets whenever they need someone they can trust. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I make it my priority to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I'll treat your pet with the same love and attention I'd give my own. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive to detail, and I'll always provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands!! I am currently a stay at home wife! I am in a hybrid program for school but I only go in person on Monday and Tuesday from 5:30-8:30 pm so I will have plenty of time to care and spend time with your dogs! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, so I do my best to keep them on their normal schedule for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest. I'll treat your home with the utmost respect and keep it clean and secure while I'm there. I'll make sure your pet always has fresh water, plenty of love and attention, and a safe environment. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for while you're away. I'm attentive to details, follow any instructions you provide, and will always make your pet's well-being my number one priority.

Allana was great. She was always on time and was great with my dog. My dog is very shy and doesn’t get comfortable with everyone but warmed up to Allana really fast. She communicated and sent me pictures and updates after every visit. I would highly recommend her.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is a lifetime of genuine, hands-on experience. I’ve been caring for both cats and dogs since I was five years old, giving me an instinctive understanding of their needs, personalities, and comfort cues. Over the years, I’ve also gained experience administering medications safely and confidently, whether it’s pills, drops, or special routines. With me, your pets aren’t just looked after—they’re understood, cared for, and treated like family. I am retired military with 4 of my own cats. I am available Monday through Friday, after 6pm and Saturday-Sunday 8am to 4pm. Adding more animals to my daily routine brings joy to my day. I can care for you fur babies in your home by helping them keep to their normal daily routine. I can offer plenty of attention, love, pets, cuddles and whatever else to treat them like the family they are

About: For as long as I can remember, I have grown up with both dogs and cats! I have been surrounded by them whether it be them being my own pets( or should I say my own family members because let’s face it, they are our family), my relatives house and even my neighbors house when babysitting. I know it can be hard leaving your fur baby alone, I just hope that I can make them and you comfortable! I am a full time teacher at Camp Lejeune! I work Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm so I am available weekdays after 5:45 pm and then all weekend long. I take hour lunches so if in a nearby neighborhood I can let them out during the day or frequently on the weekends! In order to keep you and them at the most comfortable, I am able to house sit and take care of them in the comfort of your own home. I am 100% honest so that everyone has a happy, healthy and most importantly and safe stay!

About: I have always been the one everyone goes to for animal care. Animals are driven to me. And when I come into somebody's home, the animals always sit with me or love up on me. I know how to take care of a variety of animals from dogs, cats, exotic animals, too farm animals. I have started watching pets on my own and have nothing but great reviews. I work for myself and I need a flexible schedule, as my son is autistic. He loves having animals around as well. I am a single mom and I love the fact that I can teach my son the appreciation for animals and what they bring into the home. When I am able to care for your pet in my home, they are able to socialize with my dog is well. He is very active. He is a lab pit mix. He is friendly and never had any issue with any other kind of animals. Your pet will also have more one on one care. When i do check ups at your home I'm only there for a short time and tend to get anxiety from being alone too long.

About: Hi, I'm Ash. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently care for two dogs of my own and have experience with dogs of different ages, personalities, energy levels, and routines. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care. My goal is to keep things as consistent, calm, and low-stress as possible while you're away. Whether your dog needs a quiet companion, playtime, walks, medication, or simply someone who pays close attention to their needs, I'm happy to adapt to what makes them most comfortable. I'm reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented. I provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing, and I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality instead of treating every dog the same. I genuinely enjoy caring for animals, and I treat every pet with the same patience, kindness, and respect I give my own. I currently work part-time and offer dog walking and drop-in visits during weekday mornings until 10:30 AM. Evening availability is offered Monday from 3:00–6:30 PM and Friday from 3:00–8:00 PM. My weekends are more flexible, and I do my best to accommodate both planned bookings and last-minute requests whenever possible. For house sitting, I can accommodate many schedules but cannot provide full-time weekday presence due to work commitments. I am happy to discuss your pet's specific needs to make sure we're a good fit. I prioritize keeping your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I pay attention to behavior, environment, and any specific instructions you provide to make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s established routine closely. I also communicate clearly and provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I have been around for 19 years and have owned a pet every single one of them. I have nursed my childhood dog from his rescuse up until his trip to heaven. I adore taking care of my babies I have right now both dogs and cats. I have given my most recent kitten her shots and have been able to teach almost all my pets simple things like sitting and staying. I love spending time with animals and would appreciate time in caring for yours. I am available all day on weekends and during the weekdays I can come in early in the morning to Feed, Walk, or any other Care you would like extended to your pets. I get off work around 3 and can show up to your residence at 4:00 or anytime after for Bed Time, Sitting, Walks, Feeding, and anything else you would like done. I can stay and entertain your animal in your home, keeping them fed and safe. I am fairly active so taking trips to the park and going on walks is always a welcome activety. In the event I am asked to care for your pet in my home I myself have 2 kittens and 2 rooms in the event that they get scared. My kittens are very outgoing and love playing with eachother so I see no problem. My male kitten is not sexually mature to be neutred yet but in a few weeks we have an appointment set up. I will update this when he gets fixed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Richlands on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 605 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Richlands. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Richlands stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

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 Richlands 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 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.

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.

To find sitters in Richlands with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Richlands. On Rover:

  • 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
