About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs and cats. My current crew includes Groot, my American Bully mix, Ralphie, my three-legged Pit Bull mix, and my two cats, Alleria and Vesemir. My career in special education has also shaped how I approach animal care. Understanding behavior, building trust, and finding what works for each individual are all part of my everyday life. Every pet has their own personality and needs, so I take the time to learn their routines, respect their boundaries, and make sure they're comfortable. Whether your pet is outgoing, shy, energetic, or needs a little extra patience, I'll care for them with the same love and attention I give my own! I work full time during the week, so I'm available for evening visits and walks, as well as weekends! I have more flexibility on Saturdays and Sundays and am happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet's routine. I do my best to keep my availability up to date and communicate clearly about scheduling. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities! When caring for pets in your home, I make sure to follow their usual routines, respect their boundaries, and keep their environment as familiar and stress free as possible. I take the time to learn about each pet's personality, behavior, and any special needs or concerns before our first visit. I'm mindful of body language and believe in building trust through patience and positive reinforcement rather than forcing interactions. I'll always follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and household safety, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing. I want you to feel just as comfortable leaving your pets in my care as they feel spending time with me!

“Alex did a great job taking care of our Miley while we were away. Went the extra mile and gave her newly prescribed meds as needed and even took our mail/packages in the house. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again!”

“Melissa is such a blessing! My husband and I just moved to our new town so we didnt have anyone to take care of our 2 boys and we always go on trips. We’re so happy we found her! Greggy, our youngest cat is usually slow to warm up but not with Melissa— she got head boops which says a lot! We are so relieved to have found her. Thanks a million! Xx”

About: Long-time Dog Lover and Owner Here! I’ve had dogs since I was 6 years old, ranging from Beagles to Pits but I love all breeds of dogs. Over the years I’ve done lots of dog sitting for friends and family and am always up for some good play time and cuddle time with doggos. I’m experienced with administering medication to dogs and cats. I’m also a quick learner and will be very mindful about particular requests in caring for your dog. I love to walk all over the city and look forward to taking your fur babies along with me!. If you have any more questions don’t hesitate to contact me. I look forward to meeting you and spoiling your pups with lots of love! Note: Unfortunately, I cannot care for or accommodate cats as I am highly allergic :( I currently work mornings until 2pm and live close to work so I have full afternoons and evenings available for your fur baby. I’m also off on weekends and have open availability. I have a fenced in yard and no pets currently. I do have a 5-year-old child but she has been around dogs and is very kind and gentle with them. However, your dog must be ok with small children. I also live in a neighborhood with wide sidewalks and a nearby playground making it super easy to walk your dog. I also have a car so I can easily drive to places in the area to for drop-in visits and dog sitting.
About: I love animals and promise to give your dog extra attention and love while walking them! I have helped many people take care of their animals before so I can promise you, your fur baby is in good hands! Another fun fact about me is that I played college basketball for about two years so I can assure you I’ll be able to keep up with your dog! I work in healthcare marketing and am trying to earn a little extra cash 😊 I currently work full time but have the flexibility to walk dogs when needed! I go on long walks myself multiple times a day, so adding a dog to this routine would make it so much better! My main goal is to make you and your dog feel as comfortable as possible. I will give nothing but unconditional love to your dog and treat him/her as my own.
“Krista always takes such amazing care of our pup Nola! I will always recommend her for any sort of pet services you need. She truly cares for your pet as if they’re her own (& will take the cutest pics of your furry friend to send to you while doing so)!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Riverton
I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! She was reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring with my cats. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she treated my cats with patience, love, and care as if they were her own. I came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and couldn’t be more grateful. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets!
Miranda is awesome! She was able to fit me in for a last minute booking which I really appreciated. Over the four day booking, she earned the trust and affection of two cats. I am absolutely amazed because these cats are notoriously quite spicy 😂 She also administered daily medicine and sent many pics each day. You can trust Miranda to make your time away from your furry children stress free - highly recommend!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Riverton is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $26 per visit. On Rover, sitters 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.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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.

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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters 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 sitter.
