“Rebecca was amazing! My dogs liked her the minute she came in the door! It was so reassuring to know Rebecca was caring for our babies while we were away. She also took excellent care of our home. We definitely recommend her for drop in visits or - as in our case - full time care in our home. We like to travel, and will definitely be calling Rebecca for our next trips!! Thank you very much, Rebecca! P.S. Avalon and Sierra miss you! ??”
“Bethanie took great care of my 4 year old cavapoo Lucy on a 4 day housesit! She sent updates and pictures each day (including of my girl snuggled up in bed with her), reassuring me that Lucy was doing well. She was flexible with my schedule and asks and my home looked just like it did when I left! Thanks Bethanie 🖤”
“Amy was wonderful. She came and did a meet a great. She was communicative and the house was found as it was left. My puppers were pleased. I have chicks in the house right now and she watched them for me as well. Would absolutely recommend Amy!”
“Once again Nick took amazing care of our home and dogs. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with this most important job. Nick is communicative, trustworthy, responsible and professional. As a repeat client, he feels like family now!”
“Troy did a fantastic job sitting for our Golden Retriever, Dory, while we were away for the weekend. He also took care of feeding the fish in our aquarium and attending to a few household items that went above and beyond what we expected him to do. So glad to have Troy on call through Rover to help with our pet sitting needs.”
About: I’ve taken care of my two Labs ever since I was 6 years old, (i’m 21 now) and have been dog sitting and cat sitting the past four summers!! Also I have worked in a vet clinic the past four years as well. I have the special skill of administering medication! I’m currently working part time at the vet clinic in the afternoons and it’s only 2-4 days a week usually. I can dog walk or pet sit in my free time during the day and on weekends. Possibly for a week or so. I unfortunately cannot watch them in my own home due to not having a good yard for them because it has a pool and not much area to run around. And also my dads allergies. I would have to watch them in your home.
About: I've always had a passion for animals even since when I was a little girl. Growing up, my family always some sort of animal in the house, but the animals that really impacted my life was a German Shepherd Corgi and Husky mix named Noah and I had a cat named Meow Meow.They were both my best friends and were so protective and sweet. They are reason why I care about animals and am interested in working with animals. I can do anything such as feeding, changing water, administering medication, letting them go potty/ cleaning litter boxes, and of course providing all the cuddles. I would love to chat and to meet your animals and give them the best care that they deserve! I work at a vet clinic for 12. And possibly will be taking classes online. All I need is WIFI. On the weekends I am completely free. I will not be able to take in pets into my home. I will provide a safe, secure and loving environment for all breeds I pet sit. My care will leave pet parents confident in my ability to care for their pet in positive ways that meet the pet needs and more some.
About: I had several dogs when i was in high school. I worked in a dog daycare so I'm used to watching 8 to 17 dogs at once. I also learned about dog behavior so I'm very comfortable around all types of dogs. I'm doing Rover full-time so I will have lots of time to spend giving your best friend all the belly rubs and pets they desire! I have 2 bunnies and a corgi at home and I always make sure they have lots of love and attention and that's what I'll do for your fur baby!
About: Hi, I'm Taylor! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and since 2018 I've been fortunate enough to turn that passion into a career caring for pets professionally. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to work at two specialized pet care facilities. One focused exclusively on dogs, where I cared for pups of every breed, size, age, and personality in both daycare and boarding. The other specialized in cats and small animals, giving me hands-on experience caring for cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, ferrets, fish, and other pocket pets. After caring for thousands of pets throughout my career, I've learned that every animal is unique. Some want to play nonstop, some prefer quiet companionship, and others simply need a little extra patience and reassurance. My goal is always to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I hold certifications in basic dog training, as well as pet CPR and First Aid. My training has given me a strong understanding of canine behavior, body language, and positive handling techniques, allowing me to provide safe, confident care while reinforcing the routines and manners your dog is already learning. I currently have open availability for: Weekday and Weekend Walks Drop-In Visits Overnight Stays in Your Home Flexible Weekend Availability as Needed for Last Minute Trips Because of my background in professional boarding facilities, I'm comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, administering medications, and adapting my care to each pet's individual needs. I've cared for puppies, seniors, multi-pet households, high-energy breeds, and dogs that are reactive, fearful, or behaviorally challenging. Every pet deserves patience, understanding, and compassionate care, and I pride myself on creating a calm, positive experience that helps them feel secure.
“We were a little unsure about having someone come stay with our dogs, but Mykala was definitely the answer to prayers. Our concern was completely gone upon meeting her and our dogs loved her. She was so attentive to them and of course they loved that. She always kept us up to date with what was going on and she sent us pictures, which showed us how content and happy they were. We definitely will be taking more trips knowing Mykala will be keeping Bandit and Lindy company.”
“Complete peace of mind! Amie is a wonderful pet sitter! She stayed in our home and took care of it like her own. We had total confidence that our pets were safe and loved. She sent many pictures and updates and was easy to communicate with. Don’t hesitate to book with Amie. You won’t find a better pet sitter”
“Mya did a great job with our 2 dogs while we were out of town. She made sure they got outside a lot and received plenty of attention. She also took good care of our house. I would definitely recommend her services and we would be happy to book with her again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 274 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.
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 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 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.
