“Sadie is so sweet and kind! She's great with my highly energetic dog, Scout. She walks him all around my neighborhood and is kind to all of our neighbors she meets on our walk. She's very dependable and has great communication skills. I am so glad I found her to help me with Scout!”
About: I have helped my family take care of our pets almost my whole life! Since moving out I’ve had my own pets (cats and dogs). I understand the importance of giving your pet attention while you’re gone, since they could be stressed with the change in routine! I’m a farm girl at heart! I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, sheep, ducks, chickens, cows, pigs, rats, hamsters….you name it! I work from home so I’m available to spend time with your pets throughout the day! As long as I have access to Wi-Fi I can work from anywhere! I am comfortable with crate training if your pet needs it. I follow direction very well so just leave me with a detailed note on how things run and I’ll keep it as consistent as possible for your pet!
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a well-rounded and deeply committed approach to pet care. I am the owner of Oh My Paws, a pet-sitting business I started during college, and have worked as a kennel technician, dog handler for Can Do Canines, and am currently completing an apprenticeship at a Humane Society. These roles have given me experience with a variety of temperaments, medical needs, and behavioral challenges. What truly sets me apart is my background in dog behavior and training. I am currently studying to earn my CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed) certification and have experience training service dogs through the Falcon Fetch program. This gives me a unique ability to understand body language, reduce stress in pets, and ensure a safe, enriching environment during their care. Pet care is a central part of my life and something I prioritize in my weekly routine. I have very open availability on weekends (Saturday–Sunday), and I’m also available on Mondays if needed. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent and dependable care, whether it’s for daily visits, overnights, or last-minute bookings. Because I run my own pet-sitting business and am actively involved in training and animal welfare work, I structure my schedule around the pets I care for. I take the time to provide each animal with individualized attention, exercise, enrichment, and a calm, safe environment. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I begin with a detailed intake to learn about each pet’s routine, medical needs, triggers, and preferences, and I tailor my care accordingly. I use positive reinforcement and clear communication to build trust with animals, helping them feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routines as closely as possible to reduce stress. I’m respectful of the home environment, leave things exactly as I found them, and provide regular updates with photos and notes for peace of mind.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was young. I’ve walked, fed, bathed, helped train, and overall cared for animals. I have had experience with kittens/puppies and senior animals! I have watched family and friends dogs! I work part-time and my schedule is often different, but I am always free after 7 pm weekdays and 6 pm weekends. I am open to other times as well as long as I don’t work! I do not offer animals in my home due to having my own cats. Only dog and cat sitting at the clients house! Thank you
About: Agnes Mable, my dachshund of 12 years taught me patience better than anyone. I love spending time cuddling, giving belly rubs, sniffling frito feet, & running around the yard chasing them like a screaming banshee. I stay at friends & neighbors houses frequently when they're away to watch their dogs, cats, & fish. I also have friends & neighbors dogs over for weeks at a time. I've been doing this the since moving back to Wisconsin in April 2024. I love taking care of pets like their my own. Once I have a fenced in yard, I will welcome another dachshund into my life, but until then I fill my cup with caring for other's doggos & kitty cats. I'm excited to meet you! Extra treats for pugs & extra belly rubs for the heavy weights that can fetch & return! I work from home & the days I'm traveling for work will be unavailable to book. We'll spend all day together! I've got a spacious yard, large back deck that gets direct sun light for the one's that like to bake, & if they get along with other dogs, sometimes I walk over to my sisters with them to meet my favorite pug, Potato! I live in a duplex on the bottom floor so it's easy in & out, no stairs. My yard is massive with lots of plants & trees to sniff around. I'll always take my fur friends outside on a leash. I do have a small crate available for dogs under 15 pounds, toys, treats, & extra leashes just in case you forget something. Most importantly, I have a big lamby & a small lamby.
About: What sets me apart is my dependable, loving care. I treat every dog like family, giving patient attention, walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of love. I work mornings in retail, finish later in the afternoon so I am free later in the day. I enjoy being active, but always plan my schedule around pets to ensure consistent, loving care. I adapt to each pets needs. I grew up with cats and dogs, and provide walks, cuddles, space if needed, plus updates, photos, and lots of love, care, and attention.
About: Hi! 🐾 I’m a teacher with summers off and a lifelong animal lover. As a dog mom myself, I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or dropin visits, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! 🐶🐱💕 During July, I teach summer school, so I’m available anytime after 12 PM for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. In August, my schedule becomes much more flexible, allowing for additional daytime availability. Once the school year begins, I’ll primarily be available on weekends and for evening/late-night care. As a teacher and animal lover, I enjoy spending my free time caring for pets and making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I treat every pet like my own! I maintain routines, provide loving care, and create a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel happy and cared for while their families are away.
About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember! I love training and have lots of prior experience with a variety of behaviors from reactivity to separation anxiety. My previous dog required lots of medical care and I am a human nurse so I am very comfortable providing any care your dog needs. Lastly I do have experience fostering so I have had lots of experience with different personalities and types of dogs! I do have one dog at home who loves other dogs and loves to play as well as a cat who is dog friendly (for shorter stays she can be kept in a spare bedroom)My days off of work are fully open and I do not book more than 1 dog at a time, so your dog will have all my attention. I will send lots of pictures and updates as I understand it can be anxiety provoking to trust your dog with someone new! I do work full time, but only 3 days a week. This schedule varies week to week so while I don’t have a consistent schedule, my days off work can be fully devoted to you and your pet! On days I do work I am available for early morning or late evening drop ins The back part of my yard is fenced in so your dog will have lots of room to run around and explore. There’s also plenty of shade to keep them cool! I do live by a park and a small walking trail so I there are lots of ways for us to get our exercise in! If I am walking a dog in your home, I am flexible and accommodating and am comfortable using whatever methods/tools you prefer to keep your dog safe.

About: I grew up on a horse farm and always had a variety of animals around me. A cat and dog were our constant companions, so caring for animals has always felt natural to me. As an adult, I realize that growing up that way taught me responsibility from an early age. I understand how important it is to have someone you can rely on and trust when you’re away from home, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pets are in my care. When I care for your pets, I’ll follow their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll give them the attention, affection, exercise, food, and care they need—and of course, I’ll clean up after them and leave your home just as I found it, if not better.

I do have a fenced in backyard that has multiple toys for dogs. If I come to your house I will follow any rule you have for animals and people in your home.
About: I’m a lifelong dog owner and have often been called a “Deaf Dog Whisperer” throughout my life — a title I happily agree with. I currently have three dogs, including two Deaf dogs and a Deaf Dogo Argentino. I have experience with a wide range of dogs, from Chihuahuas to Great Danes and Mastiffs, including high-energy, Deaf, and special-needs dogs. Being Deaf has strengthened my bond with dogs because we’ve learned to communicate without relying on spoken words. I naturally pay close attention to their behavior, body language, and the little ways they communicate with me. I’ve always had an easy time connecting with dogs and understanding what they need to feel comfortable, safe, and understood. I work from home, allowing me to provide plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day, especially during house sitting. I’m comfortable with different routines, dogs in diapers, baths, basic nail trims, and keeping dogs mentally engaged with puzzles, chews, sniffing, and play. I’m also happy to offer treats with your approval or take your dog for a car ride if they find it relaxing. I follow care instructions closely and often go the extra mile — something my customers and reviews have complimented me on. I treat every home with the same respect I’d want for my own, making sure it’s left the way I found it, or even a little cleaner. Your dog’s routine, preferences, and care instructions are important to me.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,108 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Richwood. 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 your Richwood. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Richwood.

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 Richwood. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
