There is not much better than seeing a happy pup face and a wagging tail. I’m an avid hiker, lover of the outdoors and am athletic to keep up with any pup. I’m also patient and take my time with senior pups and those with special needs. I look forward to meeting your canine companion and the many adventures we will have together.

Hello, I'm Stephen! I've been an avid dog lover since the moment I was born. Since then I've been sitting, boarding, and walking all the dogs that my friends have. I have experience from Australian Shepherds to little Rat Terriers, and adore all dogs of all shapes and sizes. It's been exciting getting to know all the different personalities these little guys can bring. I believe in having fun with puppers, but also demonstrating discipline with much love. It'd be a terrific pleasure to walk your dog and get to know another great thing that's a part of this world, thanks!

Hi, I'm Desiree! I grew up in California with a lab mix named Murphy. I started dog walking and pet sitting for my neighbors when I was around 10 years old. I fell in love and have been doing it ever since! I have taken care of every kind of dog imaginable, including tough rescue dogs. I love to be outside and stay in shape, so your dog will be happy and healthy :) I can't wait to meet you and your dog!

“I can’t wait to walk your dog!”
I have grown up with dogs all my life. I have had two dogs during my lifetime, Jasper and Summer. With some help from my parents and siblings, I fed and walked my dogs daily. I got the "dog care" merit badge when I was a boy scout. I love all animals, but dogs have a special spot in my heart.

Nothing is more important to me then the well being of your dog. I am knowledgeable, careful, attentive and loving. I have always had dogs in my life so I know how to tend to them when they've been hurt and how to quickly and effectively provide care and, when necessary, get them medical help. Also, if you need anything special for your dog whether it be diet, exercise, behavior related, I'll make sure it's done. I guarantee that there is no one better for your dog.

Dog Boarding in Livermore
Big Dawgs Rescue was launched in 2009 by Joanne Rivero, who gathered support from volunteers to run this Not for Profit Animal Organization. They are committed to saving the lives of abandoned and homeless pets with a focus on placing them in forever homes.
Once the pets enter the shelter, they are placed in foster care where they can be looked after by the carers, rather than being caged for an extended amount of time. The sick animals are provided with medical care and the pets with behavioral issues are given special treatment to help them begin to trust again.
The Big Dawgs Recuse is against breed discrimination and advocates for keeping ALL pets in their care. It is their mission to help pet owners and educate them on their responsibilities towards their pet.
They are also aware that a small part of the community believe that shelter animals are "damaged" in some way. They rigorously defend this myth and actively take part in showing that most of these pets find themselves in the shelter for other reasons than the animal itself.
Approximately 25% of animals at the shelter are purebred. Instead of going to a local breeder the Big Dawgs Rescue recommend you try them first as these pets are waiting for a home and family they can live with forever.
All the pets are spayed and neutered to ensure the over population of these animals are decreased. The Big Dawg Rescue continues to provide these services to help the very many culnerable animals that need a forever home.
