Jiaji took such great care of Ginger! The updates were detailed and reassuring, and it was clear they were attentive to her needs on the walk. They made sure she had fresh water, paced the walk based on her energy, and gave her lots of affection. Ginger came back happy and content. I would definitely recommend Jiaji to anyone looking for a caring and reliable walker!

Alani is hands down one of the nicest people I have met in a while, and my two dogs fell completely in love with her! I broke my leg while my husband was out of town and was unable to walk my dogs and she literally came to my rescue. She is punctual, communicative, trustworthy, and really went the extra mile to help me. Thanks Alani! -Max, Butters, & Lana.

About: We have shared our home with dogs and cats for over 30 years. For more than two decades, we've served as a foster home for Furry Friends Rescue, caring for dogs and cats of every age, breed, temperament, and medical need while they waited for their forever homes. That kind of fostering means we've handled it all: bottle-feeding newborn kittens, house-training anxious rescue puppies, managing senior pets with arthritis or special diets, and giving extra patience to animals recovering from neglect or trauma. We know how to read an animal's body language, spot early signs something's wrong, and adjust our approach to fit each pet's personality rather than expecting them to adjust to us. We no longer have pets of our own, which means your pet gets our full attention, energy, and home, without competing with a resident dog or cat for space or affection. Our house is calm, comfortable, and set up for animals to feel safe. We do still have foster cats that are friendly with other animals. Whether your pet needs a quiet, structured routine, extra TLC, or just an experienced hand who won't be fazed by anything, we've likely already seen it and handled it with care. Pet care isn't squeezed into our schedule, it is our schedule. Both of us are home full-time, with no kids and no pets of our own, so your dog(s) or cat(s) gets our undivided attention rather than fitting in around a job or a household routine. With two of us in the home, we can cover any schedule your animal needs, whether that's specific feeding times, medication a few times a day, or simply consistent company and playtime throughout the day. If one of us needs to step out, the other is always here, so your cat is never left alone for long. We're also equipped for whatever the situation calls for. We have crates and carriers on hand, and a large SUV if transport is ever needed, whether that's a vet visit, a pickup or drop-off, or anything else that comes up. Because we no longer have pets of our own, your cat isn't sharing our time, space, or attention with a resident animal. Our days are genuinely built around being available and present, which is exactly the kind of routine that comes from over 20 years of fostering. We own our home, which includes a large fenced yard and patio, giving pets plenty of safe space to run, play, and explore outside. We have no neighboring animals, so there are no surprise fence-line encounters or added stress from unfamiliar pets nearby. For dogs, we get outside for walks every day, rain or shine, so your pet stays on their normal exercise routine even while away from home. Indoors, pets have the run of a calm, comfortable home rather than being confined to one room. We tailor our approach to each animal's personality, whether that means a structured routine, extra quiet time, or simply consistent companionship throughout the day. For longer stays we can send pictures too. We have an established relationship with our own veterinarian and are comfortable handling special needs animals, including pets on medication schedules, seniors with mobility or dietary needs, or animals recovering from illness or injury. This comes directly from over 20 years of fostering through Furry Friends Rescue, where we regularly cared for animals with medical or behavioral needs that required extra attention and consistency. Whatever the service, boarding, drop-in visits, or house sitting, your pet gets a safe, secure environment, plenty of space, and two experienced caregivers who know how to watch for and respond to their individual needs.

About: I’m not just a pet sitter — I’m a true dog lover who understands the patience, care, and consistency it takes to make pups feel happy and secure. I’ve raised my own puppy from the start, learning firsthand how to train basic obedience commands and encourage good habits through positive reinforcement. I love spending time with dogs — whether it’s playing fetch, going for long walks, or just giving them the attention they deserve. I treat every dog I care for like my own, making sure they feel loved, safe, and well-exercised. You can count on me to be friendly, reliable, and trustworthy while helping your dog stay active, happy, and well-behaved! I am currently working with my company WFH and have flexibility of making my own hours. Weekends Tuesday, Thursday and Friday work best. But if I have 1 weeks notices whole week can work just need prior notice. Pets are welcome to be at our place. I have a 1 year old puppy at my place if not I am available to be at clients place. I live in 2 bed room apartment fenced long back patio. My dog is well behaved and house trained and loves dog company. I live very close to the beach 3 minutes walk and large grass areas around for pet to be relived. I have a large crate at home just in case clients need and dont need to get their own. I will be able to dog on regular potty breaks. Walk your dog separately so they can get all the attention they deserve while dog walks.

About: Hello my name is Hunter! Having grown up with dogs for over 20 years, I've had the joy of caring for pups of every shape and size. I have had dogs from 10 pound little ones to 130 pound gentle giants. Whether we are navigating the neighborhoods of Fremont or enjoying a leisurely stroll, I bring a lifelong passion for animals to every walk. I pride myself on having a natural way with pets, and my calm energy helps keep dogs relaxed and comfortable, regardless of their size. I know the rules of the road for safe walking and always prioritize your dog's well-being. I can't wait to meet your pup! Since I work remotely, my schedule offers great daytime flexibility for pet care. I am consistently available for walks and also take new clients with 2 days notice. I am available Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. This makes me a perfect fit for pet parents who work during the day and need a dependable, midday potty break and exercise session for their dogs. For walks and drop in visits at a client's home, my top priorities are safety, respect for your space, and your dog's happiness. I ensure leashes and harnesses are properly secured before we step outside, and I remain constantly aware of our surroundings during the walk. When returning home, I always check that water bowls are filled, paws are wiped if needed, and doors are securely locked behind me. I treat every client's home with the utmost respect and leave things exactly as I found them.

My time is relatively flexible. I will be available in weekdays more. Sometimes weekend works too with earlier appointments. I love playing and talking with them like a friend. Sometimes they would ask for pat or hug and my cat does, but I would be more careful with my friends’ pets. I love giving them treats when playing. But my cat doesn’t like treats haha.

About: I’ve always had my own pets including dogs, cats, horses, guinea pigs and fish. I’m experienced with house sitting and dog walking for dogs through out my teen and college years. I took a break post college while working at a shelter for women and children and then attorney represented bodily injury claims. I recently resigned my corporate insurance job and have been pursuing my stained glass small business and my passion for animals. I've been volunteering at the shelter as dog walker and started riding horses again. I'm available currently every day of the week and weekends. I live very close to the Fremont Hub. I can feed, walk, brush, love, and provide any special cares for your fur babies! I don’t mind just hanging out with your pet while you’re away for work or vacation. I'm currently self-employed as an artist and am available any day of the week and weekends and can be available as well on shore notice! I have a fenced in patio and catio for our 4 cats. They are primarily indoors and go outside supervised. In your own home, I will ensure your pet remains safe and indoors. If you have an indoor pet only, they will remain inside at all times. I will treat your pet as if they're my own pet with love and above and beyond care to ensure they feel safe and trust me.

We had a great experience! She is wonderful with large dogs and clearly knows how to interact with them confidently and appropriately. She was very gentle, patient, and kind with Kobe, and you can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. Kobe can get quite excited at times, but she knew exactly how to handle his energy calmly and confidently. I felt very comfortable trusting her with him. I would definitely recommend her, especially to anyone with a large or energetic dog. We would be happy to book with her again! 🐾❤️

FAQs for Dog Walking - Fremont

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Fremont on Rover is $27.75 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 13,721 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Fremont. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Fremont. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Fremont.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Fremont. On Rover:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
