“Gianna was AMAZING with Stella - and managed her super well, despite Stella not being super easy at first! She was really communicative and Stella ended up having a great time with her!”
“Kelly was a fantastic sitter for my fur baby Onyx! She was in regular communication, sent lots of pics and kept me updated as necessary. Onyx was well taken care of and Kelly was loving, patient and kind with her. She worked with me on crazy changes to my flight schedule and even offered to stay late which I really appreciated. She left my house clean and fresh and was a pleasure to work with. She is reliable and a great communicator. She even checked on Onyx the day after my return. I’d definitely have Kelly again and am already trying to book her for a future date. Thank you Kelly for taking such great care of Onyx, for being so loving with her and for being willing to work with me on all levels!”
“Viridiana is awesome! She is very professional, respectful, and punctual. She and my dog got along really well right away. She took care of him in our home and sent regular updates. Our dog even snuggled with her on the couch. We’re looking forward to having her sit again!”
“Good communication skills and sent photos of my dog. Took him for walks, which I know he greatly appreciated! I really appreciated that Giselle was able to accommodate my request on short notice.”
About: I treat every pet like my own and take the time to learn their individual personality, routine, and needs. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs, energetic pups, and dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m active and love going on walks, but I’m also happy to keep things low-key with plenty of cuddles and companionship. Most importantly, I want you to feel confident knowing your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work Monday–Friday, but I have flexibility before and after work, as well as on weekends. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. I’m active and already enjoy daily walks, so adding a furry friend to my schedule is a perfect fit! 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I follow your instructions closely, keep a consistent routine, and make sure pets are supervised, secure, and comfortable. In your home, I’ll treat your space with the same care and respect I would my own. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have been pet sitting and house sitting in Napa for the past 3 years and absolutely love it! I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and have cared for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. Since I’m currently pursuing my master’s degree online and don’t have another job, my schedule is very flexible! I’m able to spend a lot of time at home with the pets I care for and can easily fit walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of cuddles into my day. I will treat every pets home with lots of love and respect and make sure to follow the guidelines provided to me by the owner .
About: I’ve been a proud dog owner my entire life. I have experience with all types of dogs (big to small, puppies to seniors). All have their unique challenges and I am more than happy to meet your pet’s specific needs. I am a recently retired from my previous career, which means I have even more time to spend with your pup. I am available most days to meet both you and your dog’s schedule. I know every dog has very unique needs to make them feel safe and trust others. I prefer to arrange a quick meet and greet if possible before scheduled services to make sure your dog is comfortable when I come to visit.
“Mariah is our go to dog sitter! She has watched our 2 crazy doodles multiple times now and every time she is so communicative, punctual, and treats the boys like they are her own. The house is always left spotless as well. It’s so nice knowing that we don’t have to worry about the dogs when we are away! Will continue to reach out to her first whenever we need a sitter or someone to check in on them!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats in the past, when I lived in Australia, and in Napa, I am trusted by all of my friends and family to take care of their pets and home while they are away. I have been doing so much housesitting recently, I decided to offer my services to others again! I love animals and am always that person that can't walk past a cat or dog without saying hello and giving them a pat. I am a winemaker and notary on the side, so I have had regular background checks and am a respectful and responsible person. I live by the moto of "leave the place better than you found it" and am very cautious and mindful to leave your home in perfect condition, so you can return home with no problems and no cleaning to worry about! I work full-time and am generally at work by 7:30am and am home by 4pm. I spend a lot of time at home on the weekends to get work done and tend to walk with friends to get exercise or go to the local farmers markets. Give me a list of instructions that you would like done and I will fulfill all of your expectations! I work during the day, so I will not be able to stop by during the day in most cases (between 7:30am-4:30pm), but I will free for walks before and/or after work and anything else that needs to be done.
About: I’ve always enjoyed being around dogs and understand how important it is to have someone reliable caring for your pet while you’re away. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and comfortable following feeding, walking, playtime, and daily care instructions. I’ll treat your dog with care and respect, keep you updated, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while they’re with me. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and companionship, and I can follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible. I live in a comfortable apartment with a good-sized patio and access to a dog park inside my apartment community for walks, exercise, and playtime. I also have a very friendly and loving Golden Retriever who enjoys having other dogs around. I always supervise pets carefully, follow the owner’s instructions, and make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Maria was absolutely great! She is super fast with communication and accommodating with schedules. She sent daily photos of my dog, which made me feel so happy my dog was with someone so attentive and caring! I will definitely use her again for future dog sitting needs!”
“Thank you Ronald! Ronald housesat for a long weekend for our 2 big pups & I received several photo updates and check ins. We had a tiny situation resulting in a trip to the emergency vet and Ronald was calm, communicative, helpful, and went out of his way to make sure our dog was take care of. I highly recommend his services and am so thankful that he was so attentive!!”
“Avery was great! Piper needs someone with her for the entire duration of the stay and Avery happily hung out with Piper all day. She was punctual and answered all of our messages really quickly. We definitely will be using Avery again :)”
About: I am a Napa native and I work in downtown at a civil engineering firm. I have had animals around my whole life and will always love all pets like they are my own. I have experience house sitting for dogs, cats, lizards, and ducks/chickens. This includes walking, feeding special diets, housing needs, and administering medications. I look forward to meeting some new friends! I work Monday through Friday 8-5 with an hour lunch which allows me to do mid day check ins. I prefer house and pet sitting when taking care of animals which allows me to work around my work schedule and provide your animals with the attention that they require. Being able to take care of animals in their own home is important to me because it offers them a sense of comfort especially when someone new is around. I aim to keep up with normal house hold routines so your animals doesn’t get too stressed.

“When you leave your pets with Hayley you can rest assured that they are receiving the same level of love and care that they are used to. Hayley is passionate about animals. She understands their unique needs and bonds with them in their own time. We have a young boxer who had a very difficult life before we adopted him. He has behavioral scars that my never heal and he's very nervous around strangers. On day 2 we got a message from Hayley that he was in full on snuggle mode...a miracle! Don't hesitate to leave your fur babies with Hayley. She's compassionate and a true animal lover - the real deal!”

We booked with Gina for a five day trip and were very happy with her care of our pets and home. She has a very calm, grounded presence that I'm sure my dogs appreciated, and I really liked that she diligently kept them to their usual routine meaning less disruption for them. She's very responsive with communication, and we felt confident leaving our home and pets in her care. Thank you, Gina!
Rusty took the best care of Jobin! I had my pet care fall through at the last minute, and Rusty stepped in and was a stellar sitter. I received multiple check-ins with pictures every day. I never had to wonder how Jobin was doing. I really appreciated the level of communication. I highly recommend Rusty as a sitter!
Dorothy was amazing! She took such good care of our new puppy. Our puppy is still house training and Dorothy was very attentive and helped support her learning. She was also a great houseguest- leaving the place spotless. I’ll definitely be calling her again.
Olivia was fantastic! She was patient with our boys and they became fast friends! We felt confident and comfortable leaving for our honeymoon with our boys in her care. She was communicative and sent pictures/updates daily. House was clean, bedding was washed and bed was made upon our return! We’ve never left our boys with anyone but family before but are so happy to have found someone not only we are comfortable with but our boys as well. Will absolutely try to book with Olivia again the next time we need someone to watch our boys! 💫
Avery did a meet and greet before sitting Archie the first time, and asked good questions. She arrived on time for the overnight stay and left Archie and the house as we left them. She was gentle and patient with Archie, who takes awhile to warm up to new people. We would use her again for dog sitting.

The average cost of House Sitting in Union is $72 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $133 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 4,103 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Union. 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 Union 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 Union 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Union 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
