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.
About: I will make sure the dog has a fun walk, gets their energy out, and is safe and healthy. I have taken care of both puppies and senior dogs. I have raised a black lab border collie as well as a husky, both rescues, teaching them tricks, obedience, and walking skills using positive reinforcement. I make an effort to go on walks and ask to pet peoples dogs because I miss my dog at home and they provide so much happiness. I would have ample time to take the dog for a long, energetic walk, or a shorter, calmer walk if needed. In the clients home, I will make sure to take the pet outside to use the bathroom, and clean it up. I will also refill water and or food if needed, and play with the dog to make them happy and get their energy out.

“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 :)”
“Megan was on time and very responsible. She was so patient, caring, and clearly competent with our puppy. We felt really comfortable knowing our puppy was in good hands. She kept us updated and sent photos, which we really appreciated. Would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her.”
“Meghan was great with Charlie. She was very attentive to his needs and quick to communicate how the visit. was. she was timely and accommodating for any changes. I’d use her again in a heartbeat.. thanks Meghan.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats and have always loved being around animals. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, I’ve helped care for family pets, roommates’ dogs, and have pet sat for friends many times over the years. I love getting outside for walks and making sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away. My schedule is pretty flexible, which allows me to be available for walks, drop in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and make sure they get the care and attention they’re used to. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your pet and your home with the same respect and care I would my own. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how things are going.
“Bre was the perfect cat sitter for our kitties! This was my first time using Rover so I wasn't sure what to expect. But Bre was friendly and responsive in all of our interactions, and is clearly an animal lover, so I felt very comfortable trusting our cats with her. Bre was attentive to our instructions and sent photos and texts with updates. Even our shy cat came out to socialize her during her visits, which was very impressive! I give Bre my highest recommendation and will definitely use her services again.”
“Michael helped us this past weekend work on/train our puppy Rizzo's reactivity problem we have been having. Michael is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to training dogs to help become more obedient. We spent an hour working on Rizzos reactivity by passing other dogs and working with a dog that Michael had brought. I look forward to having more training sessions with him as time goes on. I found the training helpful and I was surprised at how much more obedient my dog was in such a short period of time. I strongly recommend reaching out to him with any issues you might be having with your dog.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Livermore
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!
Julie did a great job taking care of my cats while I was away. I really appreciated that she gave me updates with the Rover cards with reviews of each visit, which gave me piece of mind while away. Julie was a really good fit as a cat expert and had great experience to take care of my shy cats.

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.

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.
