If you have a professional landscaper working on your garden they may erect the walls themselves. They may bring in another contractor to do that work instead in some cases.

Retaining walls that do not form part of your property are less critical but still benefit from a retaining wall waterproofing membrane so that dampness from the ground does not end up ruining the aesthetic of the design. Waterproof membranes are affordable and can be bought separately, and they are simple to install when constructing your retaining wall. Be aware that weep holes are necessary to alleviate hydrostatic pressure as required - make sure you know what you are doing before building your wall.
