About: I’m new in Rover! But trust me, I will do my best! 😆 I’ve always loved both cats and dogs, and spending time with animals genuinely brings me joy! I believe pets are family members and deserve to be treated with love, patience, and responsibility. I have over 1.5 years of hand-on experience caring for cats, including looking after my friends’s Bengal cat and adopting my own cat about a year ago. I also have experience with dogs through helping friends with walking and feeding. I believe every pet has a unique personality, and I enjoy getting to know their habits, preferences, and needs. Whether they’re playful and energetic or shy and reserved, I adapt my approach to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Beyond basic care, I enjoy keeping pets active and mentally engaged. I even take my own cat on walks! :) As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. I take that responsibility seriously by following your instructions carefully, paying attention to details, and providing photos and updates during visits. My goal is simple: to make every pet feel happy, understood, and well cared for while giving their owners peace of mind. I work remotely from home and have the flexibility to arrange my own schedule, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my daily routine! Whether your furry friend needs a morning check-in, a middle playtime break, or an evening visit, I’m happy to work around their usual routine and your needs. I love spending time with animals, so pet visits are something I genuinely look forward to, not just another task on my calendar. I believe pets feel happiest and safest in their familiar environment! I will respect your home and follow your pet’s usual routines, care instructions, and personal boundaries. From feeding and fresh water to playtime, potty breaks, and litter box cleaning, I will make sure your furry friend is comfortable and well cared for. I’m also attentive to safety, including securing doors, keeping their space clean, and watching for any unusual behavior. You’ll receive photos and updates during visits, so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring, responsible hands!

“10/10! Absolutely amazing experience! She was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond, even helping me with things that had nothing to do with taking care of Dusty, and she did so without any hesitation. It was also clear that Dusty really liked her! She sent me adorable pictures of Dusty approaching her and showing affection, which gave me so much peace of mind. She consistently provided photo updates and detailed descriptions of how Dusty was doing. She is incredibly kind, caring, attentive, and always quick to respond to any questions. I genuinely couldn't have asked for a better experience. 10/10, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pet!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the age of 12. Mostly focused on friends and neighbors but am ready to spread more joy and help. I’ve taken care of pups as young as a couple months and focused on their fine learning abilities through basic training. I’m a huge advocate of dog walks and training in basic skills. I’m currently a student so I do have a good available schedule. I am free weekends for boarding. On weekdays, I am usually free after 3pm. I have a big yard and no pets so no conflicts of that sort would occur. Indoors, I have a special room dedicated and catered to your pet’s needs. At your home, pets will be well taken care of along with your home.

About: I’ve loved animals from a young age, caring for my neighbors’ dogs growing up and having a dog and cats of my own at different points in my life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and providing them with love, attention, walks, playtime, and care. Mondays and Fridays are my best weekday availability, but I can also make other weekdays work depending on the timing and your pet’s needs. I’m also available on weekends with advance notice. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, respect their routines and boundaries, and provide plenty of attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.

About: Hi there! 😊 My name is Anahi and I have been a dedicated pet sitter for the past nine years. It all started when I got my first dog at the age of five 💕🐶 Growing up alongside my furry companion, I developed a deep love and understanding for animals, which eventually led me to become a trusted pet sitter in my community. At the age of 14, I took on the responsibility of caring for not only dogs but also cats, extending my services to family friends and neighbors. Whether it's walking them or giving them a refreshing bath, I take pride in ensuring that each and every pet under my care receives the love, attention, and proper care they deserve. Over the years, I have built strong bonds with the animals I look after, establishing a sense of trust and companionship that makes their time away from their owners as comfortable as possible. With my experience and passion for animals, I strive to create a safe and enjoyable environment for them, making their well-being my top priority. If you are looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter, I would be more than happy to extend my services to your furry friends. Feel free to reach out to me, and together, we can ensure that your pets receive the love and care they deserve while you are away!!!! I have the perfect combination of having a part-time job and a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate ample time to playing and caring for your pet. With my part-time job, I have a great deal of availability on weekdays and can easily accommodate your pet's needs. Whether it's providing companionship, taking them for walks, or even assisting with baths, I am committed to ensuring your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. Having a lot of free time gives me the opportunity to create a schedule that aligns perfectly with your pet's routine. When you choose me as your pet sitter, I will come to your home to provide the care and attention your pet deserves. This arrangement offers several benefits, as your pet can remain in their familiar surroundings, surrounded by their own toys, bed, and comforting scents. This helps to minimize any potential stress or anxiety that can occur when pets are taken out of their usual environment. During my pet sitting visits, I will ensure that your pet's daily routine is maintained as closely as possible.

Let me just start by saying Hannah saved the day! She was quick responding to my same day request for drop in visit, and easy to communicate with at all times.

Julien did a great job taking care of our 2 cats. One of the cats needs a daily pill and he had to go out of his way to find where she was hiding at times, but he knew the hiding spots. Both of them ended up eating treats out of his hand. I appreciated the daily updates with photos of how everyone was doing. The litter genie was cleaned and everything was neat when we returned. Thanks again for a great job! We will definitely be in touch next time we travel.

Naomi really helped me out when I had a last minute booking to watch my cat for the weekend!! She replied quickly, made sure to get all the information she needed to learn his routine and care for him best, and he had a blast! She sent lots of photos and text updates while she was with him. I felt much less stressed knowing he was happy in her care while I was away!!

Barbara has looked after our cats for years now. She does a great job of providing exceptional care. She is a great at communicating and very thorough in her care. This trip she helped me with a perishable delivery that i scheduled incorrectly when I wasn't home. All items were refrigerated by Barbara. This is obviously not in the job description but Barbara was happy to help. She goes above and beyond the role of just drop in visits. If you are looking for the best look no further than Barbara.

Shannon provided cat sitting for my two cats over a period of a week via daily drop ins. She was detailed and thorough in her meet and great. Shannon was intentive to my cats needs, kept me updated throughout my travel, and made sure to exercise my cats the best one can. She easily navigated my automated cat feeders, kept the litter box clean, and made sure to tidy up any messes the cats may have made between visits. I'm sure the boys will miss their daily play time and tube treat sessions with Shannon! Will be sure to book again.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Union

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Union is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $38 per visit. 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 November 2026, there are 3,567 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Union. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

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 Meet & Greet.

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

  • 82% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 86% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 88% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
