“My GSD is a challenge to walk and requires long walk rain or shine. Chelsea took on her challenge by giving her lots of love and attention. She showed up rain, cold and shine. She is reliable and communication was frequent. Thank you Chelsea for being Maggie's BFF while I was away.”
“Kat was very good with my pup. Shes on time, very good with communication and most of provided excellent care for my pup. My shepherd was happy to be her ...such a wonderful vibe.”
“Cassandra is absolutely fantastic! She is reliable, caring, and clearly loves working with dogs. My pups always come back happy and tired from their walks. I feel completely at ease knowing my dog is in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Jessica is great with Jasper! You can easily see how caring she is toward her furry friend and her profession. Jessica comunicates well, and follows direction. We'd love to have her again!”
“Lyla was awesome and was able to book on short notice! I am recovering from surgery and needed someone to give my dogs some exercise and she was just the right fit. Will definitely be booking again!!”
“Francisca was amazing! She went above and beyond while I went out of town for 7 days. I was so anxious to leave my pup alone and Francisca made me feel so comfortable. She gave great daily communication and updates. She took my pup to run some errands and even spent extra time with my pupper after the walks to make her feel safe (My dog and I have never been apart that long). I could see on the house camera that she treated my pup/my home with such respect and treated my pup and if she were her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Francisca to another seeking a walker/sitter and I will definitely be using her in the future! I think I even made a friend! ?❤️”
About: I have over 4 years of experience pet sitting and house sitting for family, friends, and others in my community. I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals with different personalities, routines, and needs, including dogs, cats, and other household pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, medication and special routines when needed, as well as keeping pets company and giving them plenty of attention. I also have experience house sitting and understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable in their own home while keeping the house clean, safe, and cared for. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I work part-time, but I have a flexible schedule with most mornings and afternoons available, as-well as some evenings. I’m available for pet sitting and drop-in visits throughout the week, as well as weekends after 2:45 PM. I’m happy to work with owners to find a schedule that fits their pets’ routines and needs. I prioritize keeping every pet safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I’m experienced with caring for pets in their own homes. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and make sure pets receive plenty of exercise, playtime, and companionship. I treat every home and animal with respect and care!
About: I’ve been an animal lover since a kid. With 20 years experience in animal care, I have a way with animals that makes them feel right at home. I’m Experienced in caring for both dogs and cats, I provide dependable, detail oriented pet sitting, tailored to each animal’s unique needs. My approach combines structure, affection, and reliability to ensure your pets stay relaxed, well cared for, and loved in your absence. I’ve watched pets for 3+ years as a stay at home parent and I’m excited to meet you and your pet. I’m currently a stay at home parent, so I’m here at the house all day. I have two children, 5 and a 3 1/2 year old. They love animals so much and are out of the house during the day for school. I do occasionally leave to go to the grocery store or appointments, but I’m never gone long my day consists of early morning wake ups to prepare for school days and later evenings tending to the house. As a full-time stay-at-home parent, my daily life allows me to give pets steady attention and care throughout the entire day. I intentionally structure my routine to include regular meals, potty breaks, playtime, and quiet rest, so pets feel comfortable and included. They’re not just checked in on—they’re part of a warm, attentive home where they receive consistent care, reassurance, and love. Pets in my home are cared for in a calm, safe, and loving environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I maintain their regular routines with consistent feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, quiet rest, or extra comfort, I make sure each pet feels secure, relaxed, and genuinely cared for while they’re away from home. My goal is to continue the same routine that each pet has on a daily here in my home. I strive to basically be their home away from home.
“Most of my walk requests are very last minute. I appreciate Maria for her prompt replies and she has accepted my requests except for when she was out of town. She is truly such a reliable, helpful, and kind human being.”
About: I'm a mom to two cats, Schneider and Stormy, and I'm just as at home with dogs. I've cared for pups of all sizes and energy levels, from leash-pullers to couch potatoes. I work freelance, so my schedule is flexible and I'm never rushing out the door. Beyond the basics (food, water, walks, meds exactly as you like them), I always set aside time to just play with your pet. Every furry cuties I get to meet feels like a little stroke of luck, and I want them to have a genuinely fun time with me. I'm also into journaling and photography. I'm a bit obsessed with catching cute pet moments on camera, so fair warning: you might get a LOT of photos. Hope you don't mind! 😉 I work freelance, so my schedule is pretty flexible on both weekdays and weekends. I'm not squeezing your pet in between other commitments, so I can show up on time, stay a bit longer, and actually hang out instead of rushing off. Just let me know what works for you! Currently I only do drop-in visits, so your pet gets to stay in their own comfy space. I'll follow your routine, and after each visit I'll log what I did and how your pet was doing: meals, potty, playtime, and their energy level. Safety-wise, doors stay locked, windows and gates get double-checked, and leashes are always on for walks. I'll keep your vet and emergency contacts handy, and if anything seems off, you'll hear from me right away.
About: I've taken care of animals professionally and personally since I was a kid. Starting with cats, then getting dogs and learning to train them. In high school I started getting into bigger and smaller pets - rats and then horses. I even have experience with caring for fish. If you've got it, I can learn how to care for it just like you would! I work at a vet ER, so I can do late night check ins for the first half of the week or almost anytime on my weekends (Thursday, Friday, Saturday). How you care for your pet is how I will care for your pet. Tell me all the nitty gritty details and I'll do everything I can to go above and beyond to make sure your animals get only the best.
About: What sets me apart is the amount of attention and companionship I’m able to provide. Since I work remotely, pets aren’t left alone for long periods and can keep a consistent routine throughout the day. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and stress-free environment while treating every pet like family. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s extra playtime, maintaining routines, giving medication, or providing gentle care for shy or senior pets. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they always feel connected and reassured while away. I work remotely, allowing me to provide attentive care and companionship throughout the day. I offer flexible scheduling for daytime drop-ins, walks, and overnight care throughout the week. I care for pets by keeping them comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine with plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and updates for owners while they’re away.
About: I’ve had pets and animals in my life since I could walk. I’ve been a lover of anything with 4 legs since I can remember. Caring & loving on 4-leggeds, my own or friends & families - has always been second nature. I learned from a very early age about pet responsibility, why & how to care for pets, and the psychology behind it. My personal family pets have included 2 of the giants - mastiffs - weighing in at 180 and 120 lbs. They were my tiny babies. Taking care and loving on them was honestly one of the best parts of growing up. Our old man hung on for 15 years, and taking care of him in his old age was an honor. And I’d be honored to take care of your pets just like family - just like I’ve taken care of my own. I’m available Monday, Wednesday, Friday, the weekends, and Tuesday and Thursday before 6pm. I have school 2 days a week but can manage taking care of your animals. I have a fenced-in yard. I have 2 indoor cats. I have the space to crate your dog if needed. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and we have a nice neighborhood for walks too!
About: Lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for friends’ and family dogs. I enjoy training and playing — my pup knows 25 commands! Patient, loving care for every dog I look after. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate walks, home visits, and overnight stays throughout the week. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and I’m happy to work with pet parents to find the best times for their dogs I provide a safe home for pets with a great park behind my house for walks. My own pup will be a playful companion for your dog!
About: Expert Care for the Pets Who Need a Little Extra Finding a sitter is easy. Finding a qualified professional who understands struggles like reactivity, separation anxiety, complex medication schedules, and senior care is the hard part. Whether you’ve been let down by unreliable friends or feel like your pet is "too much" for a standard boarding facility, I am here to help. I provide a holistic, evidence-based approach that honors how your pet actually communicates, ensuring they stay relaxed and safe while you’re away. The "Safety-First" Process I don’t just walk through your door. We build a foundation of trust before I ever set foot in your home: Detailed Fit Assessment: A deep-dive consultation to ensure my skills align with your pet's specific needs. The Comfort Protocol: A collaborative plan so that you, your pet, and I are as comfortable as possible before the first visit. Expert Oversight: With a background in behavioral support and ongoing Pet Professionals Guild (PPG) credentialing, I provide more than a walk—I provide specialized care. Behavioral Support & Training In addition to dedicated sitting and visits, I help bridge the gap between you and your dog through compassionate, force-free interventions: Critical Puppy Socialization: Maximizing the vital first 16-week window. Reactivity: Building confidence for dogs who struggle Family Dog Safety: Education to keep both your children (or aging parents) and your pets safe and happy. Remedial Support: Building foundations for dogs of all ages. Yes, old dogs CAN learn new tricks! (and even potty train) Ready to see if we’re a fit? I maintain a smaller, dedicated client list to ensure every animal gets the attention they deserve. I am proud to offer care full-time, 7 days a week and most holidays! I do need the flexibility to feed and care for other pets during the day while house-sitting, including my own. Thank you for understanding! ❗Constant Care (0-2 hours unsupervised) is available 6am-10pm as a daytime hourly rate. I am unable to accommodate constant care overnights for new clients at this time. *LICENSED AND INSURED* We must trust each other and work together to provide the best support for your animals! I take client safety and privacy seriously. I do ask that you do the same for me while I am in your home. I have been background fingerprinted nationally for other work many times and I'm happy to provide any documentation requested.
“Isabella took the cutest pics to share when walking Luna (and Luna returned very happy 😊). I booked this walk last minute & was happy Isabella was available to do an early morning walk before it got too hot. Definitely recommend & will book with her again!”
About: PLEASE MESSAGE ME THROUGH A PREVIOUS BOOKING CHAT TO SEE IF I AM AVAILABLE BEFORE REQUESTING. I am no longer residing full time in Vancouver. My availability will be limited as I am going back to school! Because of this I am also no longer taking new clients through Rover and my Rover calendar is blocked off. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Thank you!! :) I have cared for many different animal species, breeds, ages, and sizes over the past several years! I enjoy getting to know each pet's unique character and providing loving and personalized care according to their preferences. Though I am not a certified trainer, I love to teach new tricks if possible and have done so in the past with many clients (including puppies)! I am a full time doctoral student so I am unable to provide 24/7 care. However, I always do my best to work with my schedule and meet the needs of the owner and pet! I follow owner's instructions as best as I can, asking questions if clarification is needed. I like to keep the owner and pet as comfortable as possible and leave the house exactly how you left it or cleaner.
About: With over 10 years of animal sitting experience I have taken care of many types of animals from dogs and cats to even animals like bearded dragons and so on. Working with animals is a passion and I am able to provide them with the proper care needed while their family is away. I can administer any medication to a pet when needed and also have experience taking care of senior dogs and cats. Thank you for taking your time to read through my profile. I do have references if needed! I work full time at a local healthcare clinic, looking to make some extra money on the side. I get hour long lunches everyday in which I can let out pets and provide walks during midday. I have several pets myself and I treat them like my kids, they are my babies! This also carries over when I am watching someone else’s pets. All animals deserve to be loved and treated kindly.

The average cost of Dog Walking in Livingston is $16 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $16 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Livingston. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Livingston after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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.
Every walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Livingston. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 walker.
