Safety, trust & environment

I will keep a close eye on your pet to make sure they’re safe when I’m walking them or letting them outside. I’ll also play with them as long as they want me to!

Information Livia R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet will be nervous about strangers or protective of their home, as well as if they are reactive to anything in particular. It’s totally fine if they are, I’m good at making friends!

A typical day

We’ll take nice long walks around the neighborhood to stretch their legs and check out all the new smells! If they like to play or chase a ball in their yard I’m up for that too. If you have a senior dog, I’ll let them set the pace and we’ll only walk as far as they’d like to.

Pet care experience

I grew up feeding, walking, and doing all routine care for our family dogs. I also have experience working with cars and dogs as a vet tech, and I’m currently in veterinary school.

Livia was amazing with our dog Grizzly! He can be nervous around other people and dogs, but Livia got along with him right away. She was so good with him and we were reassured he was in good hands while we were away on vacation. We will definitely book her again in the future!

Very reliable, trustworthy and quickly responds! She checked in/out and sent photos daily. Would highly recommend her and I would definitely book her again!! I even booked her last minute and everything went smoothly.

If I could give Livia a 10 star review, I would. She has taken care of my elderly pug for several years now, and she is always timely and prompt, warm, and communicative. She has always provided excellent care to Jethro and I would recommend her highly.
