Elena was very diligent, and all our three cats were left happy and fed :) She was communicating all the time, and we were left with complete confidence that our three furballs are in good hands.

Veronica is top notch! She is super detail oriented, taking a bunch of notes at the meet and greet and always providing multiple updates and photos at each visit. She always provides high quality care and thoughtfully completes each visit. You won't have anything to worry about when you book with Veronica!

Conscientious, caring, reliable and trustworthy! We were extremely pleased with the care Brianna provided to our 3 cats. She understood all instructions, always responded to all communication, and followed a rather complicated set of instructions perfectly. We highly recommend Brianna's services and would not hesitate to use her in the future. She earned and deserves the 5 star rating

Shirley did a tremendously good job. One of my cats is very shy of strangers and she could get her out in the open by the second drop in. Took care of the cats wonderfully and provided plenty of photos. 10/10 wood book again.

Veronica was a wonderful cat sitter for Caper and Tiggy! She was a great communicator, always letting me know when she would be dropping by, and she stuck to the schedule she committed to. Each visit came with detailed updates and plenty of cute photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell she really cared about my cats. I’d happily book her again.

About: I've been around dogs since I was 4 years old and have been taking care of dogs since I was 9 years old. My family has relied on me to feed, walk, and groom our dogs. I can take care of dogs at any life stages. My own dog is a senior (13 yrs old) and I have been caring for him since he was a puppy. I have 3 years of experience dog walking, dog sitting, and cat sitting for clients professionally. I'm currently in a grad program at CSUEB, and am typically available for most afternoons/evenings. I’m available on the weekends and to house sit as well. If you need me to care for your pet inside your own home, I would require to meet with you and your pet first to go over your pet's specific care instructions. I will maintain open and clear communication with you during the time I am caring for your pet and provide updates on how they are doing.

Excellent, highly recommended. We have just returned home and found our cats to be well taken care of by Myat. She was very detailed, thorough in her communication and followed all the instructions during her drop in visits. We have 3 cats and one of them has anxiety issues and leading to accidents. No issues indicating they bonded well with Myat. Definitely asking for her services next time.

I was initially apprehensive of leaving Oreo with a sitter, since he's a strong XL dog who can be reactive to other dogs. But I knew he was in safe hands with Su. Su took wonderful care of our dog during her drop in visits, and gave us cute pictures of Oreo with each of her visits. I didn't have to worry at all about Oreo during my trip.

Han was fantastic to work with! She took great care with our cats and sent pictures every day. We came home to calm, happy kitties, clean litter boxes and clean floors around the boxes. When one of our cats knocked over the feeder, she did a great job troubleshooting. I look forward to working with Han again!

We were so delighted by the support we got for our two bonded cats! We arrived home to happy cats + a space that was taken better care of than we do ourselves :). We had a longer booking and received lovely reports / photos that were a highlight everyday. I will absolutely book again and recommend to family and friends. Thanks again!

Jill was wonderful. She was so patient with my shy cats and made sure they ate! She also cleaned up after them when they were messy. I really appreciated all the great photos. This was the first time my cats and I had a non family member take care of the cats, and Jill took care of my anxiety as well as my cats’ needs.

Jinhao was a pleasure to work with! He is very easy to communicate with and very responsive, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. He arrived right on time and it’s obvious he has a lot of experience and a genuine love for animals. My cat Sumo took to him almost immediately! Jinhao took care of all the essentials: feeding, fresh water, and scooping the litter, and also spent quality time playing with Sumo. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands. I will definitely be booking with him again in the future.

Mila is very sweet, punctual, and flexible to work with. My cats went straight to her during our meet-and-greet, which I had never seen them do with a stranger before. She is a great communicator and took tons of pictures and videos during her visits. My older cat has a history of UTIs, and my other cat occasionally has loose stools, so Mila carefully reported the quality of their pee and poop in the litter box each time. When the weather was warm, she made sure the temperature in the house was comfortable. She has great attention to detail, and my cats love her! Highly recommended!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Union City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Union City on Rover is $32.1 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 6,906 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Union City. 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 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.
