About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve been around dogs and cats of all sizes since I was young. I work from home full-time, so flexibility is definitely on my side. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, and I’ll care for yours with the same patience, love, and attention I’d want for my own. My goal is to make every walk and drop-in safe and stress-free! I work remotely from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day. Whether it’s a drop-in visit, walk, or pet sitting, I can easily fit your pet’s routine into my day while giving them the attention, care, and consistency they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and follow your instructions carefully—from feeding schedules and medications to walks, playtime, and favorite routines. I know every pet is different, and I strive to make each visit feel as stress-free and familiar as possible while treating your home with the same respect I’d treat my own.
About: Hi! I'm Breanna (I go by Bre) and I've been a lifelong animal lover. I have adopted and owned cats for the last 20 years and I grew up with a Black Lab. I have a genuine love for cats and dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable and confident about leaving your pet in someone else's care. I'm reliable, attentive, communicative and will make it a priority to ensure your fur baby always feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. Whether that's sticking to their routine, giving them plenty of love and affection, or just providing a calm presence. I'm currently offering drop-in visits and dog walking. I'm happy to accommodate specific instructions, routines, or special needs. What you can expect from me: - Clear and consistent communication - Plenty of photo updates - Respect for your home and your pet - A calm, dependable presence your pet can trust I would love an opportunity to meet you and your pet! I maintain a flexible and well-managed schedule, which allows me to provide reliable, consistent care for pets and families I work with throughout the week. I'm thoughtful about how I structure my time, so each visit gets the attention it deserves. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize maintaining each pet's routine as closely as possible. Before any booking, I take time to understand a pet's personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any specific preferences or behaviors so they feel comfortable and secure. In a client's home, I'm respectful of the space and aim to create a calm, consistent environment when you're away. My goal is always to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both pets and their parents.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a genuine passion for caring for pets. From my first kitten at age five to the dogs and cats I care for today, I’ve always believed pets are part of the family. I provide attentive, reliable care and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Dogs in my care receive daily walks, along with plenty of attention and personalized care. I work from home full-time so your pet will get lots of time and attention from me. I want you to feel at ease with me watching your animal. I have a fenced in patio and a nice big yard in the front that I can walk your dog on a leash for potty breaks. I also live across the street from a very nice large park where I am happy to take the dog for some playtime.
“Our poodle-Maltese mix Henry just completed his first stay with Michael. I’m very impressed with the services Michael provided. He was very relaxed at our initial visit, very communicative and and diligent about being on time. It’s nice to go away feeling good that your animals are cared for. Thank you, Michael P.S. Poor guy got a lot of mail and packages to haul in, too.”
About: I'm a cats-only sitter, and I mean only cats. No dogs, no distractions, just pure feline focus. I'm always free when your cat needs a sitter, whether it's a last-minute booking or a standing weekly gig. But here's the real secret: every single time I see a cat, it's like the first time all over again. That sense of wonder never wears off, and I think cats can tell. I'm not just going through the motions of feeding and scooping. I'm genuinely delighted to be there, every visit, every time. If you want a sitter who treats your cat like the most fascinating creature in the world (because, let's be honest, they are), I'm your person. Since I work part-time with a flexible, shifting schedule, which means I can adapt to your cat's needs instead of the other way around. Some weeks that looks like quick daily drop-ins for feeding, litter, and playtime. Other weeks, if needed, it's longer stays where I'm around most of the day, keeping your cat company and sticking to their routine. Drop-In Visits: I come to your home on your schedule for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and dedicated playtime or cuddle time, whatever your cat prefers! I keep to their normal routine so there's minimal disruption while you're away. Boarding (My Home): If you'd rather your cat stay with me, they get a dedicated cat room set up just for boarding, complete with its own litter box. I also have two resident cats of my own. If your cat is the social, exploratory type, they can mingle and make some feline friends during their stay. If they're more shy or do better solo, they can stay comfortably sealed off in the dedicated room, no forced socializing required. Either way, it's a calm, cats-only environment tailored to what your cat is actually comfortable with.
About: I’ve owned dogs since I was born and have always had them in my life. I grew up with three dogs and would walk and house sit for friends and family! I’m a recent college graduate and I’m currently looking for a full time job in environmental science. In the meantime I’d love to meet and take care of your fur babies! I have one 10 year old French bulldog in my apartment with me. Any break I have at school I go home and take him out for a walk, I revolve my schedule around my dog and would work my schedule around any dog
About: I have a huge passion for animals and always have since I was little. I love dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, anything you name it! Being around animals brings me so much joy. I’ve taken care of close friends, or family pets in the past. I’m extremely detail-oriented and very attentive when it comes to taking care of animals. I have always been sure to fulfill the needs of animals under my care. I am a fast learner as well, so if there is ever a new skill I need to learn based off an animal in my care, I’m quick to pick up on it! I’m currently working part-time, and I am a student as well! I only work during the evenings and my classes are only on Mondays and Wednesdays at Las Positas, so I’m generally free any other time! My work schedule is pretty flexible as well and I love to make time for pet care/ animal quality time! I live in a very safe and friendly community, which provides other community dogs and dog parks as well. Lots of grassy area to play and nice scenery to take animals on walks. I am very open to following directions with client in home care, as well as adapting to the environment or adding anything to provide care so pets are comfortable as well as their owners!
About: I love running and long walks so if your dog is energetic, I will happily take them with me!! I live in a house with a large fenced in backyard and grass for your dog to roam around in and enjoy! I have a flexible schedule where I can work from home or drop by to check in on your pup! My housemate is also home often and many years of experience caring for dogs (and will happily provide belly rubs). Within your home, I understand every owner has their own personal preferences for how to take care of their pet so this is my highest priority. I make sure to leave the home as I came.
About: Have always had dogs and cats in the house and couldn’t imagine my life without them. Nice big backyard and plenty of room for activities! I currently work for myself so my schedule is very flexible week to week. Looking to help out another person owner with the added bonus of having a furry friend to have around. Big fenced in yard just under a half acre leaves plenty of room to run around. Access to indoors or outdoors at anytime, whatever makes pet most comfortable
About: I have experience caring for dogs and other pets for family, friends, and people in my community. I’m comfortable with feeding, providing fresh water, taking dogs on walks, playing with them, giving them plenty of attention, and keeping them on their normal routines. I’ve cared for pets with different personalities and energy levels, from playful and active dogs who need lots of exercise to more relaxed pets who just want some company and cuddles. I’m also comfortable following specific feeding instructions, schedules, and household rules. I know every pet is different, so I take the time to learn what makes each one comfortable and happy. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! I am currently working part time at a local restaurant and attending college online so I am always home and available to care for doggies! I have a fenced yard that is big and has lots of grass, including a dog run. I also have 1 friendly dog named snoop that loves to play.
“Trinity is a 5-star dog walker. Our dog, Maya, absolutely loved her from the moment she met her! Trinity encouraged a “meet and greet” and that was so reassuring to see Maya be at ease with her immediately. Trinity was on-time, let us know when she arrived, posted their walking route, posted cute pictures of Maya, and information on how Maya was doing. She is awesome and goes way beyond what I hoped for. Trinity is a serious pet lover. She is so reliable and trustworthy! She deserves more than 5 stars!!! You and your pet will love her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Livermore
Alyssa was amazing! Communication was easy and she’s very responsive to questions and updates on the care of our dog. I felt at ease even before meeting with her. She did great with accommodating our needs and times requested for walks. Highly recommend and will use again. Hopefully she sticks with this so I can feel at ease when I need care for my pets. 5 stars from Abbey too 🐾
Sarah was great! She was super professional and friendly. I really appreciated her incentive to do a quick meet up with my pups and answer any pressing questions of mine prior to the booking. Thank you Sarah for accommodating my pups. I would definitely recommend her!!
Tom took the time for an introduction before booking to meet our dog and learn about her needs and quirks. He has been very patient with her and has given her the time she needs to warm up to him. He communicates concerns well, so that we can reach a mutually agreeable plan and sends status updates proactively. We’ve been pleased with his walking services so far and would recommend!
Katelyn has walked our dog, Ninja, during two of our trips, and she’s been wonderful each time. She is always on time, takes the time to make sure Ninja is doing well, and genuinely cares for him. Ninja likes her very much, and we have complete confidence in her. We highly recommend Katelyn to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet. Thank you, Katelyn!
Christine did a great job of walking, feeding and dropping in on our dogs while we were gone. She is so dependable and reliable it really gave us peace of mind while we were away. We loved that she sent pictures and let us know each time she was there. Both of our dogs loved her. We would definitely use her again and recommend her to friends.
Marianne was awesome! She walked Aqua for thirty minutes over scheduled time which was so generous of her. She was extremely patient and playful with Aqua. She was very observant of her behavior and found solutions to fit Aqua’s needs. We can’t wait to work with her again!
Right away, I could sense that Lisa was a caring and empathetic animal person, and my Toby (who is friendly but shy), took to her immediately. She took him on his favorite route, to his favorite park, and he really enjoyed his morning walk with her! Definitely 💯% booking again… in fact, we already have future walking plans! Thanks, Lisa 😊

It’s very hard to write a review for a Dog walker. For the reason, I am not here to see how my dog reacts when she is picked up. I could tell from the photos she was exhausted from her walk, which is a great sign. What I liked best about Samantha she responded in a timely matter regarding accepting a walk with Abbie. She was on time to do our meet and greet. Definitely would use her again please if you need a dog walker please book with Samantha.

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 .

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.
