“Annabeth is amazing! She watched 4 of our pets while we were gone on vacation to St. Augustine. She sent pictures of the pets and had great communication skills. She was very polite and gave us great feedback when we asked about how the stay was because this was our first time using Rover. We have already offered her a 2nd job for the winter if she is available because she did so great. This is the person that you want watching your pets! She put us at ease and we felt that our pets and house were in good hands.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Madeleine. She took great care of my dogs and even took them on a little outing. Not only did she look out for Poppy and Triton but after I came home from a weekend away, my house was immaculate! Madeleine went above and beyond and I am so genuinely grateful to have found her!”

About: I have experience working with large groups of dogs with Allies Walkabout. I live with three cats, a dog, and a bearded dragon. I’m also currently working at Petsmart as a bather in the grooming salon, so I’m interacting with a bunch of different dogs all the time! I’m full time and work most days 730am-4pm, while I’m normally off Thursday’s and Monday’s. For pet sitting I fill up food and water while letting them use the bathroom in the early morning and head straight back after work to check in! I’m committed to creating a safe, calm and trusting environment where every pet feels comfortable and cared for. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and needs so they can feel secure and happy while in my care. I also have plenty of experience leash walking and crating if needed!

About: I have 7 years of experience pet setting throughout Northern Kentucky & Cincinnati, caring for animals with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’ve cared for pets belonging to professional athletes, as well as senior pets who need a little extra attention and patience. I’m comfortable giving medications, managing multiple pets, following specific routines, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I make sure to keep owners updated with pictures and messages throughout their time away, so they always know how their pets are doing and can see they’re happy and comfortable. I truly treat every pet like my own and always make their care my top priority. I work during the day, but I have a flexible schedule outside of work and am happy to work with your schedule and your pet’s needs. I’m available for pet sitting on weekends when I’m not already booked, and I’m always happy to discuss your pet’s routine and find what works best for you. I’ll do my best to make the process easy and convenient while making sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care! I’m comfortable caring for pets in their home and I will always make sure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m happy to follow their normal routines and any specific instructions you leave for me.

About: Danielle and I have had dogs our whole lives and absolutely love caring for them. We both grew up with dogs, so we’re very comfortable with their needs and understand how important it is for them to feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Danielle works a hybrid schedule, while I’m fully remote, so I’m home every day. We’re happy to work with your dog’s usual routine and schedule. We enjoy taking dogs on long walks in the morning and late afternoon, along with plenty of playtime throughout the day. We have a spacious 3-bedroom, first-floor apartment with plenty of room for a dog to feel comfortable. We also have a 1½-year-old son who loves animals, so your dog would be joining a loving family environment. We’re happy to accommodate dogs who need a little extra space or quiet time around our son. We usually walk around our neighborhood, but we also have a dog park in our apartment complex for extra exercise, socialization and play! Since I work from home, I’m with the dogs all day. Occasionally I go skateboarding in the afternoon for a couple hours, which is the longest the dogs would ever be home alone. We take Ori out twice a day and feed him in the morning and evening. Our home couldn’t be safer. Of course the door is always locked and we keep Ori on a leash the entire time that he’s outside. We make sure to keep any food or other things he shouldn’t get into off the floor and out of reach.

About: My connection with animals involves compassion, patience and communication. I have experience taking dogs for walks and home sitting with pets for an extended period. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pet care part-time. I’m generally most available on weekends, with additional availability throughout the week. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions and respect the pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks and any other needs they might have.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I volunteered with an animal rescue for about 6 years, where I fostered dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, and even pregnant moms and their babies. That experience taught me how to care for pets with different personalities, ages, and medical needs while providing them with a safe, loving environment. I currently have a cat who is truly my baby, and I regularly care for my parents’ two dogs, cat, and lizards since they live nearby. Growing up, I was surrounded by animals, including dogs, cats, hamsters, and goats, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of pets. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication, or just someone patient and dependable while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I’m happy to stop by for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and medication if needed. I’m willing to travel up to 30 minutes to care for your pets and will always make sure they receive plenty of attention and love while you’re away. I prefer caring for pets in their own home because it helps them stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets and entering your home, so I’ll treat both with the utmost respect. If needed, I can also care for a cat or dog in my home, which has an open yard and a calm, pet-friendly environment. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for until you’re back.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover and have had multiple dogs, two cats, and a ball python for over 13 years! In addition to my experience as a pet owner, I have also volunteered at the Cincinnati Zoo in various capacities for 3 years now, where I have learned techniques in animal care relating to a variety of species from mammals to reptiles to birds. I am currently pursuing a degree in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology with the hope to some day work with animals professionally. I was a member of my high schools zoology and marine biology clubs for all 4 years and also founded a beekeeping club. I am currently a college student looking to pet sit during school breaks. I will be in town and available December 13-31 of this year. I offer free meet and greets and I will not have another job at this time and so can be quite flexible to you/your pets needs. I can come over at regular time frames to walk, provide food and water, play, and spend time with your pet. I also offer overnight stays and can accommodate irregular schedules.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have always loved caring for animals. I’ve been watching and caring for pets for friends, family, and others since I was around 12 years old. My experience includes overnight stays, daily pet sitting, dog walking, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I also have a little pup of my own named Gus, and he’s a weenie dog! 🐶 He’s definitely my best little buddy, and having him has given me even more experience with the day-to-day care, routines, and attention that dogs need. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, cuddles, and love. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of your pets, and I’m happy to provide updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable while you’re away! Pet care fits really well into my daily schedule! I have a flexible schedule and am available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and overnight stays. Since I have my own dog, Gus, I’m used to keeping a consistent routine and making sure pets get the care and attention they need. I’m happy to work with each owner to follow their pet’s normal schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of cuddles. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or in their home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and medications if needed. I’m also happy to send regular updates and pictures so you can know how your pet is doing while you’re away!

Tiarra was amazing!! I am very nervous about leaving my dogs and typically only leave them with family/friends. This was my first Rover experience and I couldn’t ask for a better experience! Tiarra was so good to my boys and kept me updated the entire time with lots of fun pictures and updates. I know my boys were so comfortable and happy with her. I trust Tiarra whole heartedly and will absolutely be using her again! ☺️

Melissa was absolutely wonderful! I have a senior dog with some health & mobility issues and she made sure he was comfortable and well cared for while we moved my son into his college dorm 900 miles away. Having her at our house and caring for our furry baby and looking after our home was one less thing for us to worry about during such a stressful and emotional trip. I would recommend her without hesitation!

From the moment I met Aiden I knew he was an animal lover. Our dogs immediately gravitated to him. I felt very comfortable not only leaving him in charge of our pups, but our house. He communicated every day sending photos and videos. He filled the doggie pool up for some water fun and played music so Charlie could sing along to. ❤️ When a tornado warning came through he took the dogs to the basement and comforted them until it passed. He even cleaned up our garden beds!!! I would 💯 recommend Aiden!! We came home to a very clean house and well taken care of pups! Thank you so much, Aiden, for loving our pups and setting my mind at peace while we were away!

Kahra was wonderful! I have a very anxious Chihuahua who typically won’t let anyone he doesn’t know hold, pet, or even get too close to him. After just a couple of days with Kahra, he was bringing her his toys, sitting beside her, and seeking out her attention. He even let her pick him up…something he never does! Kahra clearly has a special way with animals. She gave me peace of mind while I was away. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her care and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Union

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Union is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $84 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. 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 1,101 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Union. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
