“Heather was so kind and helpful. She took great care of our kitty! Our cat is a little shy but warmed up to Heather's patient, pet-lover energy right away. We would love to book her again :)”
“Sarah is an extraordinarily helpful and positive person. She will do her utmost to ensure your pet is looked after and happy. She is responsible and trustworthy and knows how to give your pet space when they need it. I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future!”
“I found AnnMarie randomly on Rover and met her in person for a Meet and Greet. My dog is very territorial, and he instantly gravitated to AnnMarie. He even went on his back so she could give him a belly rub! Talking to her in person and talking to her references I gave her a chance and had her come to our house to do drop in visits while we were away. I am so glad I made the decision because AnnMarie went above and beyond to take care of our dog Hanz! We were gone for 6 days and it happened to be the week of the heat wave in Livermore. Our dog cannot be inside the house by himself and AnnMarie monitored the weather and communicated with me when she would bring him in the house to stay in his crate. She walked him at night when the weather was cooler. My family and I had such a great time on our vacation and I immediately felt comfortable and knew our dog was in good hands with AnnMarie. We will definitely use AnnMarie in the future when we need a sitter for our dog!”
“Heidi was great! She was diligent in checking the things we asked her to during her visits and took great photos of our three cats. If you're looking for a pet sitter, we highly recommend her!”
“Nicole watched over my German shepherd for a week and did couple of daily checks-in. She was very good with her communication and follow ups and took great care of Rio - who really enjoyed her company.”
“Mitch is amazing! He looked after my dogs for 12 days during Christmas and seven days during Thanksgiving. I highly recommend him. He takes great care of the dogs and cats, and he’s very caring. My animals were so happy when I got back; they were really well taken care of. Thank you, Mitch, for everything!”
“Gabriela is the best! She is so loving to my pets, and so thorough! I know my pets are in the best hands with her! She has helped raise my puppy and we can’t recommend her enough!!!”
“As a first-time Rover user, I was a bit nervous, but Samantha immediately put both me and my cat at ease. She was extremely communicative, shared adorable photos, and was very easy to work with. She even took care of bringing my garbage cans out, which I truly appreciated. I would highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter!”
“Really happy to have found a good, trustworthy, and easygoing cat sitter! It is always a bit scary finding someone new to take care of your four legged family, but they were so quick to respond and took care of things perfectly! One of my cats who is very shy with new people was very comfortable and social which was such a big relief!”
About: I provide dependable care with lots of attention, structure and communication so you never have to wonder if your fur baby is in the right hands. I work from home 5 days a week so whether your dog loves long walks, endless fetch sessions or simply some playtime and cuddles i am always available. I used to volunteer regularly at my local animal shelter and because of that I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining routines, administering basic medications and caring for pets with different energy levels and temperaments.
“Bailey was great! I have a dog with special needs and she worked with him well. We had specific instructions and she was able to work with us in that regard. Would recommend Bailey for anyone with a pup! 👍”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Livermore
Nic was AWESOME! She was very caring and loving toward our geriatric kitty. She spent a lot of time each day just hanging out with her so she didn't feel as lonely while we were away. When we returned, our kitty's food and water area as well as her litter box looked neat and well-maintained. Nic even took care of some of our plants while we were gone during the summer heat! We highly recommend her. Your pets will be happy and well-loved while you're gone!
We love our kitty like a son and it's always hard when we have to leave him, but knowing that AnnMarie is with him takes all our worries away! She's so great with him and it's clear that he loves her and trusts her. We wouldn't trust him with anyone else! She's the absolute best!
Micheal is an outstanding pet sitter, and I feel incredibly lucky to have found him. He cared for my two cats throughout December while I was overseas and consistently went above and beyond during every visit. Although each drop-in was scheduled for 30 minutes, he regularly stayed close to an hour to make sure everything was done thoroughly and correctly. I use a non-standard litter box setup (crystal litter with a metal tray and layered liners), and he took the time to learn my system carefully. He was extremely thorough and meticulous when changing and maintaining the litter, which I truly appreciated since it’s different from what most pet owners use. He was attentive to every detail—cleaning and refilling the water system, maintaining the automatic feeder and litter box, vacuuming litter tracking, and ensuring my cats’ environment was safe and comfortable. When unexpected issues came up (such as water tipping over or my cats breaking into their feeder), he handled everything perfectly and even agreed to make an extra emergency visit to fix the problem. What really stood out was how much he genuinely cared. He offered thoughtful advice on pet-proofing my home and always communicated professionally and promptly. I had complete peace of mind knowing my cats were in such caring and capable hands. I would absolutely book him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional cat care.
Christine took excellent care of my cat Seuss while I was away! She was communicative, reliable, and patient with him. I really appreciated the updates knowing he was in good hands while I was on my trip. I’d absolutely highly recommend Christine and will be using her again in the future, thank you!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Livermore on Rover is $24.08 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 10,945 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Livermore. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Livermore stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter 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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Livermore. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
