About: I will love and take care of your dogs as if they were my own! They will get all the love and care they will possibly need while you’re away. I’ve been pet sitting for 10 years now! It’s my favorite thing to do. I know how it feels having to leave a pet and i love to give people peace of mind knowing they’re being taken care of as much as you would yourself. I have 3 dogs of my own. With that being said, having my own dogs i am not able to do overnights unfortunately! I can do drop in visits and dog walking! You won’t be disappointed with leaving you pets with me! thank you in advance and i hope to hear from you soon! I dog walk and pet sit full time so all of my time and attention will be to caring for your fur babies!! With 10 years of experience there is nothing i enjoy more than what i do!! I come to your home and take care of your pet exactly how you would take care of your pet. It’s important to keep a schedule and routine for your pet, especially when you have to leave them. That’s my main goal!

About: I’m a professional service dog trainer with over five and a half years of experience. Before I started training, I worked in the kennels, providing basic medical care, cleaning, and other care to over 100 dogs at a time. I have taught puppy classes to volunteer puppy raisers, and would be happy to assist with care for dogs of all ages. Additionally, I’m an experienced cat shelter volunteer, and have grown up with dogs, cats, birds, and small mammals. I know that your pet is a valued member of your family. I’d like to provide experienced, compassionate care that you can rely on. I am currently very flexible! I would be happy to work around your schedule to make sure that your pet is happy and well cared for at any time of day. Safety is my paramount concern in providing care for your pet. I have training in dog first aid and CPR, and keep my clients’ emergency numbers stored within easy reach.

About: Being a pet owner all of my life, I understand the importance they bring to your life. You want to do everything you can to give them the best possible life, and I’m here to help! I have years of experience pet sitting for family and friends. Whether you’re on vacation or work long shifts, you can be rest assured your pet will be in the best care. I'm currently working part-time making my own hours, so I have a very flexible schedule! I'm available weekdays 9am-3pm and weekends after 3pm! I believe it's important to keep my cat inside and spayed, updating her shots to ensure she and other cats don't spread preventable diseases. As for dogs I always make sure to wrap their leash twice around my hand to ensure I have full control. Keeping the counter tops clean also prevents any animal from consuming something they should

About: Hi! I’m a college student home for the summer and a lifelong dog lover. I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, and I treat every animal with the same care, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, I’m committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and always happy to provide updates for peace of mind. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I prioritize regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and companionship to help pets feel comfortable and maintain their routine while their owners are away. I’m available for boarding, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments, including pets recovering from medical procedures.

About: Hi! My name is Brooklin, and animals have been a huge part of my life for over 18 years. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. I previously worked with the Charleston Animal Society, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals and understanding their individual needs. My background has given me the skills to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care for your pets while you're away. I am comfortable administering medications when needed and have experience monitoring pets' health, feeding schedules, water intake, bathroom habits, and overall well-being. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm and relaxed environment, I strive to make them feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities. My goal is to treat every animal as if they were my own and provide pet parents with peace of mind through dependable care and communication. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! At the moment I have a full time job, but have weekends off. I plan to entail doing this on my weekends and even after work days. This is more then just making it my routine. I adore animal(s). I have a fenced in yard, I as well have a crate. Plenty of opportunities for walking adventures. I enjoy going to the dog park, as well with adventuring outside anywhere with the animal(s). Whatever you set for rules or boundaries I’ll always continue to respect them, and always follow. I enjoy working with animal(s)

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 337 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Union Center. 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 Union Center. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Union Center after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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 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 .

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

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers 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 walker.
