About: I have loved animals my entire life. I grew up with Samoyeds (fluffy white sled dogs) and was so happy when I was able to get one of my own 13 years ago, and since then I have also adopted a Heeler mix. My dogs are members of my family, and I will treat your pets the same way. I love taking dogs out to all the amazing parks and trails in the area. And when I am home or doing a drop-in, I'm happy to play and keep your pets company while you are away, as well as make sure they are fed and have enough water. If there are any special needs or requests, please just let me know. I can't wait to meet you and your pets!
“Alyssa took my 2-year-old GSD to walk this week. She is amazing, and goes above & beyond. She is friendly, responsive, and reliable. Her report always makes me smile and happy”
About: I have always loved animals and genuinely enjoy caring for pets as if they were my own. I currently have a 1-year-old dog, and I have also owned two beagles in the past, so I understand the care, patience, and attention pets need at every stage. I am reliable, attentive, and comfortable helping with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and companionship. I also understand how important routines are and will carefully follow your instructions to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you are away. I work from home Monday through Friday, which gives me flexibility to provide attentive and reliable care throughout the week. I am able to help with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and companionship during the day. Because I am home often, your pet will receive plenty of attention and will not be left alone for long periods of time. I have a fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, play, and stretch their legs. I also have a friendly 1-year-old dog, so your pet may have a companion if they are comfortable around other dogs. I always make safety a priority and will follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, crate use, and any special care needs. Your pet will be treated with kindness, patience, and love while in my care.
“Annalei is great at communicating information and responds very quickly to messages. It had been a while since our pup had been walked by someone other than us but our dog recognized Annalei right away from a few years ago and eagerly went on a walk with her. Annalei is very kind and patient and we felt so comfortable (and grateful she came all the way back to our neighborhood) to walk our dog.”
“Here’s a natural, Rover-style review you could post: Christopher was absolutely fantastic with our dog. From the moment we met him, it was clear that he genuinely loves and cares about animals. He was always on time, communicative, and went above and beyond during every visit. He took our dog on great walks around the neighborhood and even picked up the pace and ran with him when he wanted to run, which our dog absolutely loved. We came home to a happy, well-exercised pup every time. Christopher was reliable, attentive, and treated our dog like his own. We’ve used several dog walkers over the years, and Christopher is easily the best we’ve ever had. We wouldn’t hesitate to book him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional care for their dog.”
“Helped me out in a last minute request! My pup was so settled after his walks, I knew they had a good time and quality exercise. Also got to meet her dog, very gentle and sweet. 10/10”
“Bethany was awesome me and my husband were going to be away on A trip our Dog Booker was staying home with our parents but they weren’t going to be able to give him the required exercise he needed so we figured we would give a dog walker a go! Bethany should up everyday to our house on time and Booker was always excited to see her! Each walk came with a picture and report which was great! Would definitely use Bethany again!”
“Liz is great with my 🐶, even with short notice she was able to accommodate a walk for poppie, she always updates me on how my 🐕🦺 is doing and sends pictures of my 🐕🦺on their walk. Thank you Liz😀”
“Veronica did a great jobs with my pups this week. Providing them with both walks and drop ins during a busy work week. She was communicative and gave great updates and could tell she genuinely cared about them and their time together. Will hire again!”
About: I have a very positive personality that I bring out in all work that I do. I am a practicing Speech Language Pathologist with a 3 year old pup of my own—Louie. I have taken care of pets through rover, as well as used it for my own pet care needs. I moved around the Portland area a bit, so I took a break from Rover, but now my life is more settled and I’m happy to take your fur-babies on walks, or drop in! I live in Mountain Park and would be happy to cover any “last minute” dog needs that you have. My schedule will allow for 1-3 walks/drop in visits per day. My most availability is Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I pride myself in being thorough and paying attention to detail. I will follow any and all instructions that you provide. Having a dog of my own, I can supply poop bags and treats if necessary.
“I really struggle to trust people with my dog, but had a good feeling about Bridget. She has followed all instructions and I’ve very much appreciated her updates. I come home to a happy boy every day so I know he is well taken care of! It’s given me a ton of peace of mind. Definitely will continue to have her walk him until she can’t anymore!”
“I asked Leanne to walk my pup while I was at work (away for about 14 hours). Leanne was timely, professional, and most of all, patient with my pup. She arrived at the agreed upon time to meet my pup, asked appropriate questions, and followed through with what was agreed upon. Dexter was pretty shy at first, but Leanne took the time to gain his trust meanwhile communicating with me the entire time. I would 100% recommend Leanne for more dog walking needs. I trust Leanne with my pup, which is saying a tremendous amount because Dexter is my pride and joy. If you are looking for a dependable, trustworthy, compassionate dog lover to walk your dog, look no further.”

Coming home to a happy, relaxed dog made all the difference. Finding someone you trust with your pet is extremely important, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have found Marissa. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their dog.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Rivergrove on Rover is $18.9 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 6,519 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Rivergrove. 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 Rivergrove. 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 Rivergrove.

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 Rivergrove. On Rover:
- 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 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.
