“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.”
About: Since I was a child I always had dogs with me, I think they are the noblest creatures in the world and they deserve exceptional life and care, my dog's name is Clyde he is a super dog, he has a great level of intelligence, he is a really polite and happy dog. I believe that having a job like this one is more than PRRRRFECT 😍! I'm the type of person that if I walk and see someone walking a dog I make eye contact with the dog first than with his human. Patience is one of my main characteristics when we talk about dogs, I have always thought that I have a natural connection with them, they give me confidence and I inspire confidence to them. I am currently a student at Foothill College, so Rover is the perfect opportunity for me to balance my class and homework schedule while earning some extra income. My schedule is pretty flexible since I'm only taking one class at the moment. I'm available for house sitting and dog walking services. Since I live in a small space, I'm not able to offer boarding, but I'm happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home or take them on walks. I also have a 15-years-old dog who has been my loyal companion and best friend for many years. Caring for him has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and attentive pet care. Looking after animals, including my own, is one of my top priorities, and I'll treat your pet with the same love and care I give to mine.
“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.”
“We just started with Gloria and she has been great with our large golden doodle which is no easy task. Very professional, shows up on time, delivers timely feedback and progress reports. Would highly recommend Gloria.”
“Josh was great with my dog. Firm but not aggressive or hostile with my spirited Samoyed. Griffin loved going with Josh on his walks with Josh 's great dane and little terrier. It was a small, medium and large trio lol. Josh was punctual, reliable and gave the full hour. Would recommend 🙂”
“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 .”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and have had pets growing up throughout my life. Since I was about 10 years old, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they were away. I also have experience house-sitting and making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved in their own environment. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I always take the time to provide attentive, reliable care. Whether it’s a quick check-in, a long walk, or overnight care, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am currently volunteering at hospitals and clinics during my gap year before I attend Nursing school. Because of my flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care throughout the week and weekends. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they receive the proper attention and exercise they deserve. For dog walks, I prioritize safety, exercise, and making sure each dog has a positive experience. I understand that every dog has different energy levels and walking needs, so I take the time to learn their routine and preferences. During walks, I remain attentive to my surroundings, keep dogs secure on their leash, and ensure they get the exercise, attention, and care they need. I am dependable, patient, and happy to provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident their dog is in good hands.
About: I've had pet rabbits since I was four years old, and I currently have an adorable rex rabbit named Louie who loves snuggles and attention. I have taken care of other rabbits, dogs, and cats! I am currently pursuing studies in veterinary medicine, and have a passion for working with and caring for all animals. If you want to someone to give your pet the love, attention, and care they need while you're away, I am more than happy to watch after your furry friend. I'm currently on break between my undergraduate and vet school, so I have plenty of time to make sure your pet gets the attention they need! All you have to do is tell me what your pets needs are, and I will make sure that they are cared for. Your pet's safety is of the upmost importance. When I am looking after your pet and/or your home, I will make sure to strictly adhere to whatever directions you provide and make sure that your furry friend is kept safe.
About: I have taken care of animals all of my life! I am a proud owner of two guinea pigs and have 3 dogs back at home. I also have experience with cats. I am an Animal Science major at UC Davis, so I am very passionate about all kinds of animals! I am a student at UC Davis taking one Summer class this summer so my schedule is flexible. I am available every single weekday as well as weekends. You can count on me to take the best care of your fur babies and treat them like they were my own.

About: Hello! My name is Pouneh, and I’m a reliable and caring pet lover who truly enjoys spending time with animals. I have 29 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of different breeds and personalities. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and happy while you're away, so I provide attentive care, regular walks, playtime, and lots of affection. 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. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. Whether in my home or my client’s home, I make sure pets feel comfortable, supervised, and well cared for. I treat every pet like my own and keep owners updated so they feel confident their pets are in good hands.
About: I’ve had a lifelong love for animals and hands on experience. I worked at Noble Dog Hotel for over a year and have been caring for my own pup, Roo, for the past three years. I have also spent the past 4 years pet sitting and dog walking for private clients and friends. I can help with basic training for dogs young and old, I believe no dog is past the point of learning a new trick or two. I can also follow any kind of schedule you set as far as feeding, walking, and naps/bedtime. A typical day with me is packed with physical exercise and mental stimulation! We’ll head out to explore local parks and enjoy long, sniff-heavy walks to let them catch all the neighborhood scents. Back at home, I love keeping pups engaged with fun games and play time. I always make sure to balance the high-energy fun with plenty of dedicated downtime, cozy naps, and belly rubs so your dog feels completely content and relaxed. Please let me know about your dog's unique personality, daily quirks, and any specific behavioral needs or triggers (like reactivity on leash or fear of loud noises). I use positive reinforcement methods, so knowing what motivates them most whether it’s a favorite treat, a specific toy, or physical praise helps me set them up for success. I’m also fully comfortable managing strict medication schedules, dietary restrictions, and specific household boundaries.
“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.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Redwood City
This was our first time using Regina, and even though we weren’t able to meet beforehand, we felt surprisingly comfortable leaving our guy in her care! She was very responsive, sent updates and pictures (always helps put us ant ease!), and communicated well throughout. Rainier can sometimes be a puller and certainly over overexcitable at times— Regina seemed confident handling him, which we really appreciated. would definitely love to have her help again in future!
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!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Redwood City on Rover is $32.1 per walk (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 13,413 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.

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.
