“Emily was amazing!! This was our first time using Rover and we could not be more satisfied. She did great with our big pup and sent us lots of pictures while we were gone which put my mind at ease! Would definitely recommend Emily and use her again!!”
“This is the second time we have had Audrey watch our pups and she does a wonderful job! We’ve already booked her for our next vacation. Communication is great, she sends pictures, and is very respectful of our home.”
“We'd give John 10 stars if it were an option. He took magnificent care of our 2 boys. He sent multiple pics and videos every day. And went above and beyond by picking up our mail, dealing with Amazon deliveries, stripped and washed the sheets from the bed he slept in, and even cleaned the fridge! Hands down the best pet-sitter we've ever hired!!”
“Marietta was absolutely the BEST!! From the very first visit, we knew we had finally found an extra special pet sitter! Her calm spirit, warm personality, and caring approach to our three dogs was remarkable! It was evident how they instantly felt right at ease with her! She was punctual, followed all instructions we provided to her before our trip, and kept in contact with us, along with sending several photos throughout our time away. She even kept the house clean and handled taking the trash out. We recommend her 1000%!! :)”
“Christina was fantastic for taking care of our senior dogs and our home. She did a couple meet ups with us before hand and had great communication and notes left for us when we got home”
About: I've been a pet parent since 2008 and have quite a bit of experience with unique pet health situations and ages. I've had a cat with diabetes requiring 2x a day insulin injections (vetsulin). I am able to dose and administer if need be. I also have had experience caring for a senior dog who required 5 meds daily (2x/day) incl thyroid medicine, gabapentin, piroxicam, omiprazole, and CBD. He had thyroid condition, arthritis, and Transitional Cell Carcinoma (bladder cancer). Lately I've been learning to be a puppy mom! We got Moki at 8 months old in 2020 and now Nova at 3 months old! I'm a self-employed web designer and I am looking for occasional house & pet sitting opportunities where I can work from your place to eliminate the distractions at my own home! All animals I've cared for are rescues ❤️ I love pitties and believe pets are family. I'm self employed and generally available for overnights during the week. With advance notice I can also be available for more extended periods if you want to take a vacation or trip. Weekends are less flexible as my husband is an RV technician who works on weekends and my daughter is home from school. We can talk though and see how we can make it work I care for pets in their home. I am happy to walk your pets on leash, let them run around your fenced yard, sleep in a crate, or sleep in a bed. I believe pets are family and I'm happy to keep your regular routine as much as possible
About: I love all animals. I have 2 dogs an American Terrior pit and a shihtzu. They are almost 3 years old and a senior. I have watched my friends animals while on vacation or emergencies. I do have references from them as well. I will care for your babies like I do mine. My dogs get along with other animals even cats. I have a large fenced in backyard that I play with my dogs in with there ball and other toys. I love to play with them and will have a small pool for them to play in while I’m outside never left by there self outside. I’m very protective over animals insuring to keep them safe. I have a set schedule in the morning from 5-6am letting dogs out to go potty and run in my fenced in backyard. Then feed them from 7-8am and feed again around 4-5pm. They do get snacks in between that time. I give my babies slamming skin treats and other treats for dogs only. I have a large fenced in yard and I’m always outside with my babies and anyone else babies to ensure safety. As well as playing with them outside.
About: I have always loved caring for animals and treat every pet like a member of the family. While I don’t currently have any pets of my own, that allows me to provide your dog with my full attention and a calm, comfortable environment during their stay. My home features a secure fenced-in patio with pet-friendly turf for outdoor time, and I’m fortunate to have a large dog park directly across the street as well as another dog-friendly area within my neighborhood. Whether your pup enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I can tailor their care to their individual needs. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I have also volunteered with animal shelters, giving me a strong understanding of dog safety and behavior. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I would be honored to provide reliable, attentive care for your dog. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I am currently a nursing student and stay at home mom. This allows me to give your fur babies my full attention and lots of love and interactive play! I believe every pet is happiest when their normal routine is maintained as closely as possible. Before each booking, I take time to learn about your pet’s feeding schedule, exercise needs, favorite activities, medications, and any special instructions. In my home, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, potty breaks, and a clean, safe environment. Dogs have access to a fenced-in patio with pet turf and can enjoy walks or trips to the nearby dog park if approved by their owner. Cats are provided with a quiet, comfortable space, fresh water, clean litter boxes, and enrichment activities tailored to their personality. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home. I follow all care instructions carefully, provide regular updates and photos, maintain feeding and medication schedules, clean up after pets, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection while their family is away. My priority is always making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.
About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs of all sizes and multiple breeds since I was a child. There’s never been a time in my life when I haven’t had a dog. I’m currently available anytime to care for your pets. If something were to change I would be sure to update it here or let you know. I am able to care for pets in my home or yours! I live in a pet friendly apartment and have a dog park right outside of my unit where your dog can still have the freedom to run and play!
“Reagan did a fantastic job taking care of Meeko and our house! She sent plenty of updates, and we returned to a spotless house, clean sheets, and a happy healthy dog! We will absolutely use her again!”
About: While I am new to rover I have experience with my parents senior dog and administering medications as needed, I am a proud owner of a stubborn chihuahua and my schedule is flexible to meet the individual needs of my clients. My schedule is flexible. I am a stay at home mom and am able to schedule care into my day. If there is anything I am unable to do I will be open and honest with you. Safety is my #1 priority in my home, I have a two small kids and a small dog of my own and would need to do a meet at greet prior to establishing care. I also have a late yard for pets to stretch their legs. In your home I can play with your pets, take them on a walk, and administer medications. I would need a meet and greet with your pet to ensure safety as well.
About: I have had various experiences with dogs and cats. I grew up around animals. I have dog sit and cat sit for friends and families for multiple years now and am very reliable. I have let sit for large dogs that are in older age and needs special care. I have also pet sit for multiple pets at once. It was a small dog and 2 cats. We went in walks, had cuddles, and played games. We even got to play with some toys. I am currently on summer break from teaching and am completely free. As I am not teaching right now I am able to be flexible to your needs of your pets. Whether that is going for a walk or going outside to play. I have my own apartment and it is animal friendly. Due to this the environment is very safe and inviting. In my home it is very calm and clean. This is important just in case your pet has allergies. Since I don’t have any pets myself I am able to give lots of care and attention to your pets.
“This was a last minute booking. We had to leave for NJ when my father died and Kelly stepped up for us. She did a wonderful job taking care of our three dogs. One has diabetes and needs insulin shots twice a day and is also blind. Kelly had no problems with the shots or with bonding with our babies. She kept us updated, which was wonderful. Kelly even did some unexpected cleaning during her down time, which was unexpected, but so appreciated. I would not hesitate to recommend Kelly and would definitely use her again in the future.”

“Serena is the perfect dog sitter! Gracie is usually very anxious to be without me but with Serena by her side, she ate while I was gone on the first day (this is huge for her!), played, enjoyed belly rubs, and had a very caring and considerate human around to be with! You want to hire Serena, she’s my new preferred dog sitter ❤️”
About: I enjoy spending alot of time with my dog Pecan! We go to the park every weekend- I have a strong passion for taking care of animals. I am newly retired and looking forward to meeting your furry friends- I am free Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays but am willing to be flexible I am open to walking, feeding, light grooming and giving them attention and love in my free time- I am open to walks at the park, feeding, light grooming and giving them attention/ love in my free time- I can assure you your furry friends are safe with me!
“Francesca is awesome! 5 out of 5 would recommend! Having never used this site or a dog sitter I was a little hesitant to let a stranger stay in my home and take care of my dog Stormy, but after meeting Francesca all my concerns were put to rest. She went above and beyond while taking care of Stormy. Daily updates and pictures made it so much easier to relax knowing my girl was getting lots of love and attention. She even got Stormy to eat all of her food which was HUGE! Every time have left town and had friends check on her she hardly eats anything. Francesca will be my number one choice anytime I plan on leaving town again!”
“I can’t recommend Haley enough! She did an outstanding job caring for my furry friends—Raven, Nanachi, Koda, Kiwi, Zora, and Terra. She has a genuine love for animals, as they seemed so happy and comfortable in her presence. Each one of them adored her, and I could see that they had a fantastic time together. Haley was incredibly attentive, ensuring everyone met their needs and engaging with them through playtime and cuddles. I received regular updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It’s such a relief knowing that my pets were well cared for and loved while I was gone! Thank you, Haley, for your wonderful care and for making this experience so enjoyable for Raven, Nanachi, Koda, Kiwi, Zora, and Terra. I’ll be booking your services again in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fremont on Rover is $49.95 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 469 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.
