“Lauren was great with my dog! Very responsive, kept me updated, and sent lots of pictures. She did two drop in visits for me. She took my dog for a walk and played with her in the backyard. I came home to a happy puppy, and my house was locked up and alarm set! I will definitely be using Lauren again as a regular petsitter.”

“Yasmin was perfect for taking care of my mom’s cat, Charlie. She was prompt every morning with an arrival text and photos of the food station and a noted photo of Charlie. She managed her way through a reception desk and two secure buildings at a senior residence center.”

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for pets and currently work in veterinary medicine, so your pet’s safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes, puppies, kittens and senior pets, and I’m experienced with administering medications, feeding routines, and recognizing signs of illness. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I currently work full time during the day, but I’m most available in the evenings throughout the week and all day on weekends. During the time I’m with your pet, I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, and playtime so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love having company. I always introduce pets slowly and supervise playtime. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and can crate if needed. With my veterinary medicine experience, I’m also comfortable recognizing health concerns and administering medications if required.

About: My husband and I share a deep love for dogs and treat them like family. Your pup would receive our full attention, affection, and care. We're both active and love going on walks—if that's their thing—but we're just as happy to spend time relaxing and cuddling indoors. We're attentive to each dog’s unique needs and are experienced with giving medications and following special diets, as our own dog has a few of his own. We both have the flexibility to work from home, so we can spend extra time with your pet while you're away. I love sending photos updates and will treat your dog as if it's mine. I don't watch dogs from multiple owners at once - your dog will be the center of our world while they're here! If you're looking for a safe, loving space and for your dog to receive excellent care, I am your Rover sitter! Check out our gallery to see photos of Watson (our dachshund) and the pups we've looked after in the past! I work full time, but work from home some days and have some flexibility with my schedule. Weekend days are best as we're both home all the time, but we can also help on weekdays. My husband works later and usually leaves for work in the afternoon and I get home a few hours after he leaves, so there isn't a long gap where our dog is alone. I have a fenced yard and a dachshund that is friendly and chill. Our neighborhood is very safe, your dog wouldn't ever go outside unless leashed.

“We made our booking on very short notice and Eve was kind enough to accept. We are very grateful for her daily Rover report on our sweet Jenna as well as it seemed she even made her a puzzle that I had briefly mentioned that I would make ahead of time but was not able to as time got away from me. Thank you, Eve!”

About: Passionate about caring for your furry friend. When life happens count on me to care for your baby, I think it's important for our pets to have someone to watch them when we are away or busy. I am currently on summer break from work. I work as a part time aide at an elementary school and looking to stay busy and share my love to your pets. I am available everyday. I have a fenced backyard that they can freely roam in and can cage them if you would prefer that. I am okay with indoor dogs and would love for them to cuddle on the couch with me if that's what they like :) my main priority is for your pet to be as stress free as they can be when you are away. I have 2 friendly miniature poodles of my own(I can easily separate them, if needed).

About: I’ve had and been around animals my whole life! From cats, dogs, ducks, cows, horses, and even bearded dragons. I’m no stranger to caring for animals and I’m always happy to help! Don’t let me schedule dissuade you! I do work full time from 7:30-4:30, but I’m free afterwards and pretty much all weekends. I can be the person you call last minute and will always do my best to make sure you and your fur baby are treated right and with care. Whether it be animal or human, I believe in respect and trust. If you have a shoes-off home, that’s what I’ll do. If you prefer someone who doesn’t wear cologne, I won’t. If you need someone to talk to your fur baby in Spanish, I’m your guy. You set the rules and I follow them because it’s your home, your best friend, and I’m here to help!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Livingston

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Livingston is $16 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $25 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 438 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Livingston. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 .

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 , 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 Livingston. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

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 sitter.
