No matter the time I move my legs
I will never move from my place by my own power.
Hint #1
I look like I live but yet I do not.

plant
Title:
You can grow plants at home

Being blown in the wind?

Plant sways and the roots are always growing

The plant can't move on its own however hard it moves its roots (the legs)

A plant?
Are you just a:
Chair - since you clarified 4 legs.
Every day back and forth I go
I lean forward and back and my legs move.
Chairs have 4 legs and are moved back and forth each day while people move them in and out of tables to eat.

Chairs need someone to move them.
However, I think there's many things that possibly fit at this time.
Tables, Couch, Chair, Wheelchair + Person, Desk, Baby who can't move yet on all fours.
Are you by any chance a
clock (specifically one with a pendulum)?
Every day back and forth I go
The pendulum (of a grandfather clock for example) swings back and forth, every day
I lean forward and back and my legs move.
(if you can consider the hands of a clock as its legs, then this works... or is that too much of a stretch?)
No matter how hard I try
No matter the time I move my legs
The hands of a clock never stop moving, no matter the time
I will never move from my place by my own power.
Though it does move, the clock will always remain in one place in a house/building.
