Riven is a technically-demanding jungler at low levels, you have to have good execution. I struggled at first until someone tipped me off to the trick of stacking Runic Blade prior to fighting the first camp (gives you six stacks to use, big difference).

Valor is also really important, although I usually cheat and get Ki Burst at level two in case I need to gank. At a certain point, you just stop taking damage from camps period, since you CC everything to death and shield the rest.
