Services - My favorite dog services Dog Walker - Leisa Giguere with Pleasanton Pet Sitting I don't trust too many people with my dogs, but Leisa is great and I have no worries when my dogs need a mid-day walk, or my cat needs someone to check in on him while we're gone. Veterinarian - Dr. Brenda Mills with Livermore Country Pet Hospital She's knowledgeable and is willing to work with scared dogs to help them to be more comfortable with their vet visits. I also love that while she mainly uses regular western medicine practices that she understands the benefit of supplementing that with alternative and holistic options as well. She does great acupuncture work also!
