“Great communication and was great with my puppy. Took him out and gave him his food and made sure he was comfortable along the way! Would definitely have Cynthia walk my dog again in the future.”
“Barbara is amazing! She's kind, responsive, and incredibly attentive, and it's clear how much she genuinely cares about the pets she works with. She's reliable, communicative, and Archie had so much fun today!”
“Huei is absolutely amazing! She was so accommodating with my high energy puppy and even worked on training with her while I was at work. We only planned on using a rover for while my partner was out of town but we plan to work with Huei regularly now if she’ll have us 😊 she sent so many photos during her walks that gave us peace of mind too! Can’t recommend her enough.”
“Josh did a great job!! He made sure my dog got plenty of exercise, sent regular updates, and took great care of her! I would recommend him to anyone who needs their pet looked after”
“Criss is the best so thorough?She did more than I asked.She took so many pictures.My dog and cat were well taken care of. I didn't have any problems or worries. We are keeping Criss forever .”
“Kim was professional and considerate from the moment we met. She walked my pup a few days while I was out of town, helping split care with my mom. Kim checked in ahead of the service, during with questions, and sent lots of pictures to clearly show what happened. When my pup was sick one day, Kim kindly cleaned up after her and sat with her instead of trying to push through with a walk. I felt so comfortable leaving my pup in her hands.”
“Aylia was extremely communicative, catered to our shy dogs needs, and responsible. I could tell she is used to working with skittish dogs and is willing to give them the space they need to feel safe. She did have an unforeseen emergency arise during our scheduled walks but she notified me quickly and Rover actually gave a credit for the trouble of finding a second sitter last minute. I would definitely rebook her if we need another walker!”

About: Hi! I’m a psychology undergraduate and lifelong dog lover who grew up with dogs and a playful tuxedo cat. When caring for dogs, I use calm, positive-reinforcement strategies from my psychology studies for a stress-free experience as the dog gets to know me. I have lots of experience with senior dogs and am ready to give them the extra support they need. I'm currently a student at the University of San Francisco who has their heaviest day on Mondays. Every other day, I am much more flexible and have fewer classes and more time to care for animals! I follow your pet’s usual routine, provide feeding, walks, or playtime, and make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for in their own home.
“Gloria was very punctual and communicated extremely well with me. She was able to help me out last minute and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their furry friends!”
About: I’ve always been around dogs and have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I also have experience caring for a dog with seizures, which taught me to stay calm, attentive, and responsive to a pet’s needs. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I’m currently on a flexible summer schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care and their needs. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I’ll make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages. I always treat both pets and homes with care and respect. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while you’re away. 🐾❤️
About: Hello! My name is Mon, and I work in (human) healthcare. I'm taking some time off to complete my board exams, and I would love to help out with your pet's needs during that time! I worked as a vet tech years ago past and have also owned a variety of critters, including a special-needs chihuahua and a very active pitbull mix. At the moment, I have a very sweet orange cat named Moosh-Moosh, and have had experience pet-sitting for a variety of animals and personalities. I'm currently taking time off (until September 2026) to study for boards, so I'm very flexible during the day time on weekdays from 9am to 6pm. I have an indoor-only cat with a courtyard that is frequented by many outdoor cats, so I'm constantly vigilant about ways to keep everyone safe! I've also worked with reactive dogs as a vet tech, and am mindful about how to take them on walks and stay alert.

I’m responsible, patient, and committed to making pets feel comfortable in my care. I’m happy to send photo updates so you can feel at ease while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! As a stay-at-home mother of teenage twin girls, I have a very flexible schedule and am available most mornings, afternoons, and throughout the week.

About: With many years of experience caring for a blind cat and a toothless cat of my own, I’m well versed in providing special care that unique kitties need. I’ve learned how to offer comfort and tailored attention to ensure their happiness and well-being. I will care for your cats while you are away and make them feel loved 🥰 I’m available after work on weekdays and flexible on weekends.

“Ozlem came to meet the dogs & walked with us to understand their behaviors before she took the job. She was patient and very friendly. She was reliable and did a great job with my dogs. Definitely recommend her services.”
About: Hey!☺️👋🏼 I am an active sitter so I love going on walks, parks and going on adventures with fur pets. If your fur pet prefers to stay home I am happy to do whatever it takes for your fur pet to be happy and so do you. Any requests are always acceptable.💯 I have a flexible schedule , this is my full time job so my priority is taking care of your pets needs and helping out the owners. Watching your pet 24/7 and giving them all the attention needed. Because of COVID going outdoors I still take precautions of my safety and yours, I do wash my hands for 30 seconds after touching an item, I do stay 6 feet away from people with my mask on. In my home it is always clean and sanitize. I do clean your pets paws if they go on walks. (Isn’t necessarily just an option) All pets should be potty trained Please.

Loved having Huei come check in on my dog Remy multiple times this last month. My pup took to her so quickly and would get so excited to see her open the door. I enjoyed all the fun texts and pictures that really showed my dogs fun personality that others get to experience. 10/10 would recommend and happy to continue to book her!!!

We just adopted our dog from a rescue about a month ago and Andrea has been so communicative on each walk. Yogi is high energy and not the easiest on walks. I gave a lot of suggestions to help Yogi practice what we’re working on in training, and Andrea has been so good about trying to help him stay consistent and just making sure he’s well loved and cared for while we’re at work. Yogi has been doing so well at home after she takes him for his walk and plays with him. Would not hesitate to have Andrea walk Yogi again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Redwood City on Rover is $32.1 per walk (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 13,401 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Redwood City. 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 Redwood City. 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 Redwood City.
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 Redwood City. 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.
