“I can’t recommend Alicianna enough! She took amazing care of my two dogs during their drop in visits while I was at work, and knowing they were being looked after gave me so much peace of mind. She was punctual, reliable, and kept me updated after every visit with messages and pictures, which I really appreciated since I couldn’t check on my dogs myself. It was obvious they genuinely cared about them and spent quality time making sure they had everything they needed—not just letting them out, but giving them attention and making them feel comfortable. My dogs looked happy and relaxed in every update, and it was clear they were in great hands. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, were respectful of my home, and made the entire experience completely stress free. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, and trustworthy to care for your pets, I wholeheartedly recommend Alicianna. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again!”
“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 currently have 3 rescued cats and 2 rescued dogs. I grew up in a neighborhood where everyone had animals and one even had farm animals. I never really got to help with the farm animals but when neighbors went on vacation I would care for their cats, dogs, guinea pigs, bunnies, and even hedgehogs. I cared for animals of all ages! I currently do spark which is Walmart deliveries and am looking for something part time! I can do daily or weekly as needed. I can work with your schedule as needed but am unavailable till after 8:45am on the weekdays. I have cared for several peoples animals. I have experience playing with dogs and cats. I also have experience getting animals into a crate if needed.
“Brooke did amazing with Ruger and Maggie! She followed the schedule like we talked about and fed them for us as well. Ruger and Maggie behaved well with her kids. Definitely going to be using her in the future!!”
About: What sets me apart is my real hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs in different home environments. I’ve pet sat for 3 different families and understand how important it is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I also have a cat and two dogs of my own, so caring for animals is already a big part of my daily life. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. I am currently on summer break from college, and animal care is my part-time job for the summer. I have open daily availability and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care for pets. In the client’s home, I will maintain the environment exactly as I found it. I will carefully follow all instructions provided and in unforeseen situations I can navigate them by using my experience caring for pets to handle any situation responsibly.
“Trisha did an excellent job taking care of my boy! He was fed, let out and played with while I was away. He was super happy and she was great with communication. We hope to see Trisha soon for more amazing care with drop ins😄”
“Really nice with excellent initiative. She wanted to let me know all the things she was capable of and that made for an informative conversation on our initial meet-up. Very kind and prompt. Always keep me informed and I felt save leaving my dogs with her. Would use again.”
“I travel for work and always use Chloe take care of Rocco. He can be a challenge because he’s a big puppy that does not realize his strength sometime, but he loves her and she handles him well.”
“Bethany took care of our animal family. She checked in each visit with photos and updates on how everyone was doing. We were a bit nervous about leaving our one dog who had separation anxiety issues. But she managed everyone well.”
“Jade came and met my babies the night before as this was last minute. She treated them as if they were her own. I would definitely recommend Jade. I’ll definitely be rebooking with her!!”

About: I grew up with dogs from Shih-tzus to Rottweilers, puppy to senior, even one with pancreatitis! Your pet will be cared for with much love! I am currently working part-time and about to start online college classes! I will be available all throughout the week unless I have to work! All pets will follow the daily routine you have set for them with just a little extra love and care. Anything to make them happy!
“Ashley is hands down the best dog sitter I have ever used! She went above and beyond while taking care of my dog and I would recommend her to anyone. A great sitter and a great person, I will be requesting her again. ”
About: I will love your dog or cat as if they were my own. I have fostered and volunteered with local rescues and have probably fostered around 40 dogs and cats in my life time. I am able to help soothe nervous pets and start working on commands. I don’t mind taking “reactive” dogs, just let me know that they are “reactive” so I can best prepare. I have had several fosters that had a bite record but by the end of their stay with me they were a completely different pup as they began to trust the world again. I honestly like fur babies more than most people. There are no children in my home and I have a Chi Pug Mix and Husky, both submissive. I do work full time week day schedules are as follows: Leave home at 7:15 am Return on my lunch to let dogs out/provide enrichment 12:15pm-1pm Return home for the day at 5pm Unless volunteering (will be scheduled around boarding/day care) I’m am home at least 75% of the time on weekends and evenings. I have a large fenced back yard and have baby gates for additional separation/in case your pup is a runner when doors are opened (please let me know if this is the case). I also have a “office” where 1/2 is set up for dogs that need separation as well as two additional separate spaces should the pup need to be separated. I will treat your furbaby as if it is my own and I’m definitely a helicopter dog mom where safety is my number one priority.
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.

The average cost for Pet 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 Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 624 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
