About: Hi!! I’m new here and would love to get to know your dogs, take them on walks and get them some exercise and interaction :) I am a stay at home mom and have 1 fur baby myself. I’ve had all types of dogs growing up as a kid. I’ve had my schnauzer mut, Wendi, since she was 2 weeks old, started off with bottle feeding her and she’s been spoiled ever since! I often keep my brothers 3 dogs, one is an Australian shepherd/golden retriever, one is a mut and the other is a mini Australian shepherd. My family has always loved dogs and the joy they bring! I’d love to get to know your animals and help your family out. I am currently a stay at home to 4 kids. 3 of my kids are in school so I will have my youngest with me in the stroller as long as other dogs are comfortable being around kids as she remains buckled in the stroller :) I have 1 dog, Wendi, and have had her since she was 2 weeks old. I bottle fed her for 2 weeks since her mom got ran over. She loves to go on walks, play fetch outside and go to the park with all of her human siblings!

About: I've taken care of dogs, as well as cats since I was six. My pet experience with dogs is of varying size, energy level, and maintenance. From my moms dog who was a German shepherd, Rottweiler, and chocolate lab mix, to a large stray dog that mix have been a Great dane and boxer mix, and currently 2 small dogs, Angel and Charlie. I do have experience with diabetic dogs as my dog, Charlie, is diabetic. I have experience as well with handling high energy dogs like my dog, Angel, who is chihuahua and jack Russell terrier mix. I am currently unemployed, but live with my mom and take care of my sister, who is 17 years old, I drive her to school at 7 am and pick her up at 3:43 p.m. I am available between then and after 7 p.m. as I have to give my dog Charlie her insulin shots and scheduled feeding twice a day. On weekends I am available at 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and anytime after 7 p.m. I offer dog walking, over night watches, as well as general care for the dog(s) whether it be scheduled feedings, scheduled dog walks, scheduled medication, etc. Anything you are looking for specifically, let me know your schedule, your dog(s) schedule, what you are looking for and I will let you know if I can bring the care you are looking for.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who has been providing dedicated dog walking and pet care since 1998. Over the last two decades, I’ve worked with small, medium, and large breeds, giving me a deep understanding of the unique needs and energy levels across all sizes.Having personally owned a high-energy Blue Heeler and currently sharing my life with a sweet Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, I am incredibly adaptable to different canine temperaments. Whether your pup is an intense, active working dog that needs a structured job, a gentle giant, or a sensitive soul who loves a slow, sniff-heavy stroll, I tailor every walk to their specific behavioral and physical requirements. Your dog's safety, happiness, and unique personality will always be my top priority! I care for my family daily, including my twin teenage daughters and an 8 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Chipper. I've been Chipper's primary caregiver since we brought him home as a 10 week old puppy, and he's the center of attention and love here in our home. He's fed twice daily, given treats twice daily, walked every morning, and played with and snuggled multiple times a day! I have a fully fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood with my elderly, sweet Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. It's a lovely, calm, inviting environment for everyone.

About: I raised my own dog and cared for her until she was 13 years old, which gave me invaluable, hands-on experience through every stage of a dog's life. Because of our long journey together, I am especially attuned to the gentle, patient care that senior dogs require, understanding their unique needs and comfort levels. I am excited to bring that same dedication, love, and attentive care to your furry family members, whether they are energetic puppies or relaxed seniors. My daily routine is highly structured and reliable, allowing me to easily incorporate dedicated time for pet care. I am an early riser who is committed to a daily fitness routine, making me a great fit for energetic morning walks or active play sessions. Whether it's sticking to a strict feeding schedule or ensuring your pet gets their daily exercise, my organized lifestyle means your pets will always receive consistent, on-time care. Safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. I have a fenced yard and a trail in my neighborhood great for your fur baby! Having raised my own dog through her senior years to age 13, I am deeply familiar with pet-proofing spaces, monitoring for hazards, and handling pets with gentle care. I love dogs and have grown up with dogs all my life! Our neighborhood has great paths for walks. Please bring their food, treats and a food bowl. Also, a leash, and a harness if needed, for walks. You are welcome to bring a dog bed, blanket, or anything that would help them feel comfortable.

About: My name is Valerie! I have become extremely enthusiastic about this app as it has given me the opportunity to meet and get to know new families, individuals, and most importantly dogs. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your pup and can’t wait to create a lasting relationship with everyone involved! I feel like my childhood growing up with my dogs has given me a good amount of knowledge when it comes to walking, looking after, raising and potty training. I am a teacher and have always been very fond and connected to children so I feel like dogs aren’t very different from that for me! I love any and all dogs and I’m really hoping I can create new relationships with you and yours. I am currently off for the summer so I have plenty of time to cater to and give your pet the attention it needs all day! I have a backyard with a fence so your pets can get the exercise they need or even some sunbathing in during the day. I have two fur babies of my own to keep your pets company as well.

Whether it's going for a walk, sticking to their feeding routine, or giving them extra attention and affection, I treat every pet with the same care I'd want for my own!

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I have for animals. While this is my first year on Rover, I’ve been around and taking care of animals my whole life. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I want both you and your pet to feel comfortable and know they’re in good hands. Im currently working on an online business where all I need is wifi and my laptop. Im also a college student looking to make some extra cash to pay off tuition. Both of these things I can do online anytime which leaves me for plenty downtime and study breaks I can spend with my furry friends! I care for every pet based on their individual needs and routine. I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of attention and exercise, and have a safe and comfortable environment. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their instructions closely and keep their pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. My main goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Richmond

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Richmond is $13 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $29 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 November 2026, there are 4,558 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Richmond. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Richmond. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Richmond after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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.

Every walker 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.

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

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
