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: 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.

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.

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.

Although I am set to one-day book at the earliest, I am open to same-day inquiries if needed. When taking care of cats, I love to let them warm up to me on their own, cuddle, and play when they want to! I will always take lots of pictures and give your pets lots of love.

About: I lost my boxer last year to cancer and miss having a dog around. I decided to open my home to dog sitting and walking to fulfill my human need for a canine. I would love to snuggle and play with your dog. I have a big back yard, dog friendly for fetch, frisbee, hide and seek or other games. I will hike and run with your dog in the neighborhood or local parks. If your dog likes to swim, we can go to the creek or lake. I am available some weekdays and most weekends. Your dog will be the only pet, full on attention. I hope you choose me to meet your fur baby. I will provide loving care with fun and exercise.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I've been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Livermore
Samantha has been great with my cats, so when I got a dog, I hoped she’d be up for the challenge—and she absolutely has been! She’s been wonderful with my new boy. They go on walks, she feeds him dinner, and I’m always relieved knowing he’s safe, happy, and well cared for while I’m away. It gives me such peace of mind knowing he’s in good hands with Samantha. I’m so grateful to have someone I trust with all of my pets!
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!!
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!

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.
