“Trina was awesome. On-time, very respectable, and my dog loved her immediately. I felt very assured my pet was in good care as she sent many photos of my dog throughout the booking. Will happily book with her again and would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Highly recommend Kevin! He is so knowledgeable and incredibly attentive, really appreciate him sharing his observations and tips and tricks with Millie today. She was instantly comfortable with him. He did a wonderful job caring for her, keeping her engaged and also following our routines. We would definitely use Kevin in the future.”
“Amy is the best dog sitter we could have asked for. I pride myself on how much I take my dogs on adventures but Amy even surpassed what I do for my own dog! Amy took my dog on numerous wonderful adventures while sending me amazing pictures from their adventures. When Amy left she left a gorgeous hand drawn picture of our dog. I recommend Amy to anyone with a pet that they like and want to leave in good hands. 5 stars. A+ dog sitting! Will hire again!”
“Su took great care of my senior dog. She provided regular updates, asked questions when not sure and patiently took him on walks. She left my house in the same shape I left it in. When I got home my dog did not complain one bit which is a first for him :).”
“Jennifer was great with my senior dog and 10 months old kitten who is very active. She took amazing pictures and left the house spot clean. Would definitely use her again.”
“Paulina was able to add an extra day caring for my cats at the last minute. I really appreciate the time and care she gives to my cats, especially to Nesta, who is more withdrawn than my other cat.”
“We just got back from our trip and couldn't be happier with how everything went! This was our first time booking Alex and we were a little nervous leaving our two dogs, Blush and Shadow, but any worry disappeared quickly. We came home to happy, well cared for pups and a home in perfect condition. Alex was attentive, reliable, and clearly gave them so much love. We could tell right away that the dogs had been in great hands. We'll absolutely be booking again for our next trip highly recommend! 🐾”
“Francis was a fantastic sitter, providing high-attention care of both our pets and our house while we were away. He took careful notes, tracked medications, proved highly flexible with unexpected changes, and even managed to make quick friends with our elusive cats. Francis is the first sitter to interview us during the meet-and-greet, rather than the other way around. From the moment we met, we knew that Francis was a different kind of sitter. Francis is a caretaker. We strongly recommend Francis for your pet and house sitting needs.”
About: I've been a devoted pet caregiver for 9 years, caring for cats, rabbits, and hamsters with love and patience. Over the past year, I've also gained hands-on experience raising my own energetic Border Collie, who is now 10 months old and about 44 lbs. Through daily training, walks, playtime, and caring for a high-energy puppy, I've developed a deeper understanding of dogs' physical and emotional needs. I know that every pet has a unique personality. Whether your pet is playful, energetic, shy, or senior, I always provide patient, attentive, and personalized care to help them feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I also enjoy sending detailed daily updates and plenty of photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I'm currently an MBA student and have just completed my first year. During summer break, I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time to your pets. During the school year, my classes are primarily in the evenings, allowing me to continue providing reliable daytime care with minimal scheduling conflicts. Because I currently rent my home, I'm unable to offer boarding services. However, I'd be happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home through drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. Since my MBA program starts in mid-August and all my classes are in the evenings, I currently have a flexible schedule during the day. This allows me to dedicate ample time to new opportunities, projects, or commitments without scheduling conflicts. I’m available throughout the daytime and can easily adapt to different time zones or urgent tasks while attending evening classes. I currently rent my home and am unable to offer boarding services at my place. However, I am happy to provide loving and attentive pet care by visiting your home for drop-in visits, dog walking, or house sitting. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, and I’m dedicated to making sure they receive the care and attention they deserve while you’re away.
About: Hi! My name is Natalia but I go by Nat. I’ve been caring for dogs for about 7 years and have three dogs of my own. I’ve raised them since they were puppies, so I’m experienced with feedings, walks, playtime, giving lots of attention, and sticking to their routines. I understand every pet has different needs, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! I treat every pet as my own and will always do my best for them and their owners! I have a flexible schedule and can provide pet care most of the week. I work as a swim instructor on Thursdays from 6 5:30p.m.-8:15p.m. , and Saturdays from 10:30 a.m.-1:15 a.m., as well as Mondays and Wednesday from 4:30pm-8:15pm, but I’m avaible after and before these hours. I’m happy to accommodate to walks, drop in visits, and pet sitting around my work schedule, and I’ll ensure your pet gets plenty of attention and care! If there is any case of a same day booking, I am sometimes able to take it! Your pets safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow all instructions carefully including eating habits/schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special requests. I’ll treat your home with respect and care for your pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while your away.
“Justin took amazing care of Rio and was incredibly attentive to all of his needs. He was very patient, followed every instruction perfectly, and made sure Rio was comfortable and happy throughout. On top of that, Justin was great with other pets as well, which gave me even more peace of mind. He treated my home with care and respect, just like his own. I’m truly happy with the experience and would absolutely love to have Justin back again for future sittings!”
“We came home to very happy and relaxed kitties, I could tell they were well cared for. Our apartment was left clean, Stephanie was communicative, and she followed instructions. Thank you so much!”
“Angie was great. She was very responsive and kept us updated throughout the entire time she took care of both our pups. The pups were healthy and happy and our home was kept clean. We would have her house sit for us again.”
“Madeline provided the care we requested for our pup, Peaches. She communicated well while providing house sitting and care for our home and pooch. We'll definitely engage Maedline again should the opportunity arise.”
“Darya was amazing! She sent me multiple daily updates with photos. The animals loved her right away which was very reassuring and she left my house very clean and even stripped the sheets! I will be using her again.”
About: I used to volunteer at my local animal shelter, where I spent my free time walking and caring for dogs. I loved getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they got the exercise and attention they needed. I truly miss it, and I’m excited to spend time caring for your pup like they’re my own. (I also love running please let me know if you want me to take your dog on a run!) Free on the weekends! During the week I’m free in the mornings or after work at 3pm! Would love to interact with animals more since I can’t own any in my apartment. I’m very used to big dogs and or aggressive cats it’s very situational but I’m confident I can handle any pet! I don’t offer boarding at my place unfortunately.
“Tianyu was great! She was extremely responsive during her stay with our older dog, Otis, and provided great updates and photos/videos. She kept our house and backyard extra clean. We will book with her again in the future!”
“Natalie was so great!! She was very kind and flexible and even left the house clean. She sent me lots of updates of the dogs and followed all the instructions. This was my first time having someone I don’t know watch my dogs and she was fantastic!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Fremont is $75
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fremont
We are so happy we found Kevin to pet sit our Golden Retriever! When we returned, our dog was in great spirits and clearly missed Kevin as soon as he left. Kevin was fantastic with communication, sending frequent picture updates, and he was incredible with our big furry boy. Kudos to Kevin! We highly recommend him to anyone looking for an amazing dog sitter.
QIAN was amazing with my dogs. She went above and beyond to take care of them! When a certain plan related to our dogs fell through, she stepped up and took them to the designated place without being asked. She was very thorough with her updates, and sent pictures every day. My dogs were loved and well taken care of!
Kim was absolutely amazing with my two dogs while I was away on an extended trip! She was incredibly communicative, sent frequent updates, photos, and videos and went above and beyond to care for them with kindness and, of course, plenty of treats. Incredibly respectful of my home during the house sitting. Highly recommended. ♥️
Estela took care of our 2 whippets & our house while we were away on vacation. The house was well taken care of: she helped put the garbage cans out & in, brought in all our mail & packages, kept the dogs fed & kept them company. Estela was great and did a meet & greet before we left to get to know the dogs and what our expectations were. She was on time and very communicative.
Tatyana did a phenomenal job— literally above and beyond! She was so kind and patient with my Doberman and kitty. We were so glad she got along so well with our pets and gave them the best time while my husband and I were away. Highly recommend and would love to book Tatyana again the next time we’re out of town.
Jennifer did a wonderful job caring for my cats. She is very reliable, follows instructions carefully, and always pays close attention to their individual needs. One of my cats is very shy and cautious around people, and Jennifer was incredibly compassionate and patient with her, respecting her boundaries while helping her feel safe and comfortable. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my cats were in such caring and capable hands. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.
We loved the way Vanessa took care of our two dogs and also our house for the 10 days we were away. She kept us updated daily via text and sent us pictures of our happy dogs. She even alerted us that we were getting ants in the kitchen and did a great job getting rid of them. Thank you Vanessa, we appreciate you!
Diana was absolutely amazing with our little cat. We were abroad for 3 weeks and she was booked in for a home stay to live in with our cat. She treated our cat as her own and looked after her so well, and gave us lots of updates on her, which gave us so much peace of mind. Diana also treated our home so respectfully and it was so clean and well kept to return to. Our cat definitely loved her company too and got comfortable with her really quickly. I believe we have found our forever pet sitter for any future trips away too. Thank you so much for the perfect 3 weeks for our cat.
Sahil was an amazing dog sitter! He was very responsive and communicative throughout the entire stay, which gave us great peace of mind. He took wonderful care of our dog for a few days, and it’s clear that he genuinely loves and understands pets. The best part was seeing how happy and relaxed our dog was when we returned, which really showed how well he was treated. We would absolutely trust Sahil again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Fremont
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fremont on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 9,254 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fremont. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Fremont walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Fremont maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fremont choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 sitter 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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters 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 sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fremont. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
