About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a child, but have had my 3 cats for 13 years now. I recently moved, so I let them live with my mom sadly, I do miss them. Outside of my cats, I have helped walk and care for other dogs the past few years. If you give special instructions on how you would like for me to care for your dog/cat, I will do exactly that since I will be coming to your place and/or walking them. UPDATED AS OF 6/16/26- for now please refer to this update until life gets less busy. I have a 2 year old so I cannot watch your animals at your home at this current time, but I would still love to drop in and take care of them through the day or take them on walks. I can care for them at my home also. The hours listed below are still correct 😊 I work Monday-Friday until 3:30pm, but I can also come before work, take my lunch to let your pups out for a potty break half way through my shift! I always am off on the holidays. I do have every Saturday and Sunday completely free. After 3:30pm on the weekdays I have the entire day to spend with your animals :) I will follow all your instructions you give me for caring for your animals. I will always treat them like I would my own animals!

About: I adopted a rambunctious shelter cat 5 years ago. She’s a wild child with a big personality! And I took in a stray cat about 2 years ago, who needed lots of care, including surgeries, food insecurity behaviors, etc. I’ve cared for cats my entire life, but these 2 girls have taught me how to handle the extremes. I am very knowledgeable about cats and their needs, and I can promise you, your baby will be taken care of as if they were my own (aka like perfect princess angels that I’d go to war for) I work from home, so I can immediately take care of any and all needs. I frequently check on my 2 cats, and have no issue stepping away from my desk if needed. In my home: My 2 cats have their own bedroom, catered to their playtime and nap time. They have free rein of the house, and are very welcoming to other cats. They are up to date on vaccinations and vet care, and they do not go outside for their safety. In your home: I will treat your pet(s) as if they were my own, with kindness and patience. I will follow your routine. I will be sure to change my clothes and take off my shoes to avoid any anxiety from smells of my own pets.

About: I am a dog and cat lover. Fine company and sensitive to any pet’s special needs. I am an educated single woman . I am home a lot. I like to sing to dogs too and read them books. I have had two dogs and three cats as pets in my life, but cared for many more than this. I am very sensitive to a pet owner's needs to feel comfortable with the person they choose to care for their family members. Pets are great friends too. Walk both morning and evening. Meet and greets are great ways to see if we can help your dog or cat have a good stay. I am working part-time so I am home for many hours during the week and weekends. I always have time for pets and will give them great care. I have one small gentle cat, Lily, 7 years old. I am also looking after a friends cat at his home. I’ve had pets dropped off or I visit your home . I can also stay overnight.

About: Hello! My name is Adrianna and I’m so excited to meet your fur babies! I have 3 dogs of my own: a German shepherd, a husky mix and a golden doodle. I love animals of all types and have experience with special needs dogs, administering medication, and walking reactive dogs. My parents have 4 dogs as well that I routinely care for. I understand how comforting it is to know your pets are in good hands and I would love to be able to be that person for you! I typically work evenings, therefore daytime walks and visits are ideal for me and ensure I have lots of time to spend with your babies. I am happy to provide leashes and poop bags in case they are ever forgotten and i will ensure owners receive updates about their pets regularly.

About: Hi, I’m Leyna! I provide personalized, in-home boarding and pet care in a calm, dog-friendly home in Puyallup. I work remotely full time, which means your pup gets plenty of supervision, attention, cuddles, potty breaks, and play throughout the day. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, with a special soft spot for small dogs, seniors, anxious pups, and dogs with medical or mobility needs. I’m comfortable administering medications and have hands-on experience with post-operative care, IVDD/spinal conditions, orthopedic concerns, and senior dogs who need a little extra patience and support. My home is designed to be safe and low stress. We have a large fully fenced private yard, ramps for preventative safety, play pens and gates if needed, and a relaxed indoor environment for lounging, naps, and low-key play. I’m cage free unless owners prefer otherwise. I’m Pet CPR certified and take safety seriously. All dogs must be fully vaccinated, including Bordetella, and current on flea prevention for the safety of every dog in my care. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and routine so I can make their stay feel as comfortable and familiar as possible. I also send frequent photo and video updates throughout the day so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and loved. I’d love to set up a meet and greet and learn more about your pup! I work remotely, so my routine is very flexible which allows me to accommodate your pet’s routine. I will always be around to make sure your pup gets all the love and attention they need! I have a beautiful, private, secure yard with an 8-foot wood fence in a quiet neighborhood! My house is completely dog friendly and pet safe and remodeled to accommodate indoor play and relaxing. I’m cage free, but if you prefer your pet be crated, I have no problem accommodating any requests.

About: A trait that I believe I inherited is my connection with animals. They have a place in my heart that is indescribable! I'm a cardiac sonographer who is responsible, patient, and kind. I always treat animals the way I would want my pet treated if leaving them with someone else. I enjoy taking walks and the feeling of taking care of something/someone that can't take care of themselves so it's no wonder that this is a perfect side hustle for me! I have years of great experience with all different ages from puppies/kittens to seniors. I'm also experienced in administering medications when necessary. I hope to meet you and your furry one(s) soon! As a cardiac sonographer, I have a schedule that allows me to have a fulfilled side hustle. Please send me a message if you're interested and we will line up our calendars for your needs! I care for pets patiently and with genuine love. Please contact me with any questions or accommodations that you may need! I have been around all animals of different species, needs, etc. my entire life.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 1,032 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across River Ridge. 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 River Ridge. 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 , 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 River Ridge 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 , 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 .

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

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
