“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!”

“Jennifer was amazing! She did just a few visits for a short business trip but I felt so confident and able to be fully present for work. Great communication and mature decision-making, and seemed to really enjoy taking care of my boys. I'm booking her for an upcoming vacation already. :)”

She also went the extra step to clean up their messes. Her communication is excellent and I could tell she has a lot of love and affection for animals. I would book her again.”

“Veronica is amazing. I could stop there, but there are too many superlatives in the English language to describe how much Veronica cared for our cat on our first booking with her: Caring Communicative Consciencious Creative Loving Professional Prompt Thoughtful But I'll stop there. All of those were exhibited multiple times during her 8 days taking care of our cat. We even learned things about our cat and how to make her happier and more energetic by reading and watching her reports of her visits. She is a total pro and loves animals, and my only concern is that my review will highlight how great she is and make it hard for us to book her again on our next trip. :D”

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.

About: I absolutely love animals. I've grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have two cats at home. Previously experienced with caring for my senior dog who had CKD. I have a lot of experience with dogs and cats of different sizes and temperaments as I'm currently working as a vet assistant and studying to be a registered veterinary technician. I recognize that every pet parent has their individualized way of caring for their pet and I strive to support that. Your furry kid means a lot and you should feel confident and comfortable with their care. I currently work 4 day weeks, 10 hours a day. I have three days throughout the week and nights after work that are available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting. I do my best to maintain a safe environment, staying aware of harmful materials, chemicals or products that a pet could get into. Removing or storing these items safely to avoid any negative exposure. Especially for young pets (and labs) that will eat anything.

About: Hi!! I’m Pamela and I’m currently a student pilot looking to spend my free time with fur babies! I have 2 of the sweetest 2 year old kitties at home, worked at a vet clinic for a little over 2 years and have experience with all kinds of pets except reptiles. I know how to administer vaccines, subcutaneous IV fluids and medications. I love to go on walks and do drop in visits. I bring churus for cats as treats as well as yummy doggie treats but of course just let me know if they are allergic to anything🤍 You may rest assured your furry bestie has the proper care they need and I may sneak in a little hugs and kisses !! I’m a student pilot based at home and have a very flexible schedule. I travel almost every month so I will make sure to keep my schedule up to date on days I am unavailable! I do not offer doggy day care in my home but since I do drop in visits I bring toys and treats for your fur babies ! Also every fur baby is different in feeding schedules so just let me know what your routine is and I will more than happy to accommodate.

About: Our biggest advantage is that we have no pets of our own, so we can offer exclusive, one-dog-at-a-time care. This is especially suitable for dogs who are anxious, dog-selective, reactive around other animals, or simply prefer human companionship. I’m a working professional, while my mom stays at home and absolutely loves dogs. We care for every guest together, so your dog receives plenty of company, attention, and affection throughout the day. Together, we have experience hosting more than 50 dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. We live in a pet-friendly building with a beautiful dog park downstairs and typically provide morning, lunchtime, after-work, and evening walks based on your dog’s routine and needs. Exclusive single-dog boarding is available for an additional 20%. If this option is not requested, we may host up to two compatible dogs at a time. Please share any behavioral needs or triggers with us in advance so we can provide a safe and comfortable stay. My mom Fang stays at home so she is able to look after your dog during the day and go on as many walks as your dog needs. We do the morning and evening walks together. I have a two-floor studio apartment where your dog can access freely. We have a dog friendly community in the gated neighbourhood with a beautiful dog-park right across the street.

About: As a proud parent of a 6-year-old Ragdoll, cats are a central part of my life. I routinely pet-sit for friends during their travels, which has given me extensive experience managing multi-cat households. I understand feline body language, respect their boundaries, and know how to handle everything from energetic play to managing separate feeding schedules and keeping litter boxes pristine. Whether your cat is a social butterfly or a shy kitty who needs time to warm up, they are in safe hands. For the pups, I am all about staying active! I am the go-to hiking and jogging buddy for my friend’s Golden Retriever, so I am well-versed in handling various breeds. My flexible work-from-home schedule blends seamlessly with pet care, allowing me to easily step away for reliable morning cat drop-ins or mid-day dog walks while giving your pets the consistent attention they need. As an outdoor enthusiast who loves hiking, tennis, and Pilates, I have the natural stamina and energy to match active breeds like Golden Retrievers, Doodles, or Corgis on the trails, yet I deeply cherish the quiet, grounding moments—whether that's practicing a workout with a kitty on the mat or providing patient companionship for a shy cat. Because I love to travel myself, I understand exactly how stressful it can be to leave your furry family members behind, which is why I am dedicated to providing the ultimate peace of mind with prompt communication and plenty of happy photo updates. When caring for your cats in the comfort of your own home, my top priority is maintaining their familiar routines to minimize any stress while you are away. I treat your home with the utmost respect, ensuring that everything from meticulous litter box scooping to pristine feeding areas is kept exactly as you like it. I know that cats are creatures of habit who feel safest in their own territory, so I tailor my visits entirely to their unique comfort levels—whether that means engaging an energetic breed with interactive toys, giving gentle chin scratches, or simply offering a quiet, reassuring presence nearby for more independent kitties. You can travel with absolute peace of mind knowing your home is secure and your cats are receiving dedicated, loving care, complete with detailed updates and plenty of photos after every single visit.

“We can’t thank Jasmine enough for the incredible care she gave our cat, Leo, while we were away. She went above and beyond—sending thoughtful updates, giving plenty of affection, and making sure every detail was taken care of. We came home to a very content cat, and that peace of mind is priceless. We wholeheartedly recommend Jasmine to anyone looking for a truly caring sitter. We will definitely call Jasmine the next time we’re out of town to take care of our Leo.”

Ayda was amazing with our cat, Jerry. He can be a little shy of strangers but took to her immediately. Ayda sent lots of pictures and detailed updates each day. You can tell that she’s really a cat lover and knows exactly how to take care of them and interact with them. I will definitely have her cat sit for us again!

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 Cat Sitting - 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.
