About: I have been caring for all different animals since I was a young girl. I am comfortable with all sizes and breeds and happy to take on special needs cases as well. I am very flexible and reliable when it comes to caring for your babies. As long as I am free I’m open to last minute drop ins as I know life happens and sometimes we all need a little help. My dogs are like my babies. They live a better life than I do. When I’m in your home your babies will be treated like mine while respecting all rules in the house (whether they’re set you or your dogs) I am very comfortable reading dogs social cues and am willing to meet them at their pace and comfort levels.
“Maryann has been an absolute blessing! To find someone that appreciates all the sweet things about our Pup and treats him with such kindness and care means we have someone to help provide our doggo with dog walking when we really need it. She is so attentive and sweet to check in with me first before doing something. It’s lovely to have someone we trust so much, highly recommend!! (And thanks Maryann for everything you do for us and our fur baby!)”
“My dog is a little anxious with new people, but Erin has a very calm and steady demeanor that helped to put my dog as ease. Erin responds promptly and communicates proactively. Thanks, Erin!”
“So good with our new puppy! It was his first long day in the crate and Sandra took great care of him! Walk and play time! She even helped us out by cleaning up some puppy puke left behind. We hope to have her help again!”
“Krista was great. Zoe immediately loved her and Coby didn’t mind the wake up call from the couch to meet his new friend. Dogs were walked, fed, and given treats as requested. Proper leash, walking perimeter followed, house locked, and key promptly returned. We even received a picture of the walk. Neither dog expressed any separation anxiety while their humans were on a day trip. I was super happy and will call on Krista in the future. Dogs give her 5 woofs!”
About: Growing up an animal lover my whole life, that passion has led me to hobbies and a career. It started with volunteering at my local animal shelter, to kennel attendant, to animal care technician at the University of Pittsburgh, Labcorp, and Penn State's College of Medicine. I have personal and professional experience with both cats and dogs (and also rabbits, rats, ferrets, hamsters, and guniea pigs if you have a little one!) I know how to give medicine (oral, topical and injections), properly feed, play, socialize and keep healthy! To me, I treat my pets and animals that I’ve worked with like people and give them all the love, care and attention that they need and deserve! I hope I can give the same amount of love, safety and assurance to your pets while you can’t be there! I am currently available for all days/hours and any service needed, from house & pet sitting to just a one time walk, and always open to any kind of pet! I have 4 cat children of my own at home and they are so spoiled and loved, my one cat doesn't like when he's separated from me! It's definitely "their" house but they know I'm their mother! I'm hoping to be able to spoil your pets in their own home, where they feel more safe and comfortable.

About: Experience & Background: Hands-On Fostering & Rescue Experience. My understanding of canine behavior comes from my experience as a dog foster. Fostering taught me how to support dogs of all personalities—from rescue pups adjusting to new environments, to high-energy dogs needing structured outlets, to timid pets requiring extra patience and gentle encouragement. Fostering trained me to read subtle dog body language, manage different temperaments safely, and strictly follow customized care plans, feeding schedules, and medication routines. Yes, I can give insulin if needed. Safety-First Approach & Dog Handling: Your dog’s safety and well-being are my highest priorities. In addition to my rescue experience, I practice strict safety protocols during every visit and walk: Leash & Gear Awareness: Double-checking harnesses, collars, and leashes before every walk to prevent escapes or gear failures. My well maintained fenced yard has ample amount of room to catch some sunlight and run and play. Proactive Walking Habits: Maintaining full environmental awareness on walks—avoiding unwanted off-leash dog encounters, staying clear of busy street hazards, and pacing walks to match your dog's fitness level and the weather. Routine & Structure: Following your home rules and training cues consistently so your dog maintains their normal routine without unnecessary stress. Tailored Care for Every Stage of Life Whether your dog needs a fast-paced exercise walk, structured mental enrichment and playtime, or gentle companionship for a senior pet, I adapt my care to their exact physical and emotional needs. You can expect detailed updates and photos after every visit, so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well-cared for. I currently work from home during the week and have open availability during the weekends. I'm open to extended stays and to all your pets needs. Hi, I’m Ryan! Whether you need active daily walks, structured drop-in visits, or attentiveness while you’re away, my goal is to give your dog a safe, fun, and fulfilling experience—and give you complete peace of mind. ### Why Choose Me? - High-Attention & Structured Care: I understand that every dog has different needs—from high-energy breeds that need solid physical exercise to timid pups that require patience and gentle encouragement. - Safety & Reliability First: I practice proper leash etiquette, maintain total awareness on walks, and follow your home and feeding routines to the letter. - Clear & Consistent Updates: You will receive daily updates with HD photos and details on feeding, bathroom breaks, and activities after every visit or walk. ### What Care Looks Like: - Dog Walking: Tailored to your pup's energy level, whether that means a fast-paced fitness walk or a leisurely "sniffari." I handle leash manners with care and always double-check secure gear before heading out. - Drop-In Visits & Sitting: Includes fresh water, scheduled meals, playtime/enrichment, mental stimulation, and any medication administration your pet requires. - Daily Routine: I stick strictly to the house rules you’ve established so your dog stays on their normal, comfortable schedule. ### Safety & House Rules: - I always conduct a Meet & Greet prior to booking to ensure we’re a great fit. - I do not take unvetted dogs off-leash in un-fenced areas. - I am comfortable managing specific feeding routines, basic training reinforcement, and special care instructions. Have questions or want to see if we’re a good match? Send me a message to schedule a free Meet & Greet! Online available.
“Our pup was chill when we returned home; relaxed from his long walk in the cold. Carly took him on a nice long walk and he is now, a few hours later, happily napping on my lap. Carly must have kept him moving since they did almost 2 miles! And he loves to sniff, so that’s impressive! Thanks for giving him a healthy diversion while we were out.”
About: In college I lived next door to a nurse with two dogs and I watched her dogs multiple times a week while she worked long hours. I also watched my friend’s dog while she was out of town. I’m a paramedic so I work two 24 hour shifts a week but am free the rest of the week! I pick up shifts as needed but these are only if I don’t have other obligations. With instructions, I’ll do my best to stick to your routine to avoid causing stress for your pets! I also pick up after myself (and pets) and try to leave places the same or better than I found them:)
About: I have been dog and house sitting for over 4 years. I love animals and will treat your dog like my own. I do have 2 dogs so I understand the importance of routine, especially while their people are away since it may be a confusing time for them. I love exercise so I’m comfortable with dogs of varying energy levels. I work full time but I am available for most mornings/evenings during the week and most weekends. Please contact me to work out specific dates/times :) When I care for dogs, I usually let them run around the house or my fenced in back yard if I’m home. I also have a designated (large) room for them to hang out in if I’m leaving the house or in case they need some quiet time.

For overnight stays, I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and bedtime routines. Safety and trust are very important to me. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and have experience with rescue dogs, fostering, senior pets, and animals who need medications or extra attention.

About: Hello!! I've had my own cat since 2017 and am an avid stray feeder (and occasional trapper). I also volunteer at Kitty Queen Cat Rescue at least 2 days a week, usually doing morning cat care (but sometimes you can find me there during open hours). I feed all of the cats, replace water, scoop litter boxes, clean up whatever I might find, and give medication when needed. I encounter all different types of personalities and customize my approach to each one. I've been volunteering there since October 2025. I've also been pet sitting personally to friends since I was a teenager. I thoroughly enjoy taking care of animals and building trust with them, especially the shy ones. Truly nothing makes me happier than scooping 20 litter boxes with cats all around me. I also regularly take care of my friend's dog who is a spunky and reactive, but very sweet, terrier mix. I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to my own cat, so I will understand if you need consistent pictures or a FaceTime call to calm your nerves! I once drove home in a blizzard because I couldn't see my cat on my cameras (she was completely fine). I'm also working on getting my Fear Free Pet Sitter Certification as I believe in preventing as much fear, anxiety, and stress as possible in all pets. Furthermore, I don't believe in assigning spite or malice to any animals. They are all innocent creatures to me. <3 I'm currently only working part-time so I have a lot of time to take care of your pets!! I can do mornings, afternoons, evenings, etc. One of the things I pride myself on is not only taking care of your pet like I would my own, but also your home. I'm a neat freak so I promise to leave it better than I found it! My least favorite part of taking a trip is coming home knowing my apartment would be a mess due to my cat sitter just not really caring. Not with me!
About: I've been the go-to sitter for my friends/family for years because they know how much I love being around animals. During the day, I work professionally as a dog bather, which deepens my understanding and care for pets. I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. With two cats who are my whole heart, I truly understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry family when you are away. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in, or overnight care. I’m here to help. As a professional dog bather, I understand the importance of routine and care. While I work during the day, I can be flexible with my schedule as long as I have enough notice. I’m happy to accommodate both short notice requests and regular routines, working closely with your pet’s specific schedule to keep things consistent and stress-free. I provide most of my care in the client’s home to keep pets comfortable in their own environment and maintain their usual routine. Whether it’s walking, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, eventually pursuing a career in animal healthcare! I have 6 years experience in veterinary medicine, which has helped me comfortably gain experience with a variety of different animals and breeds ranging from all ages and sizes. I’m currently working full time with weekends being completely open. I am available for drop in visits or overnights on the weekends, or drop in visits during the week after 6 PM. Availability can be arranged in advance! I love to keep you updated with photos and details during each visit. I am capable to medicate, walk, crate, or perform any grooming duties or special requirements.

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 Riverton. 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 Riverton 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 Riverton. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
