“Rachel was absolutely phenomenal and the best Catsitter we have ever worked with. Of course she did the basics perfectly (litter, feedings, etc.) but she also took the time to play with our kitty and treated him like one of her own. She also took several pictures which gave me great peace of mind. Would 100% use her again!”

“Katherine was a lifesaver when our trip was unexpectedly extended due to weather and we couldn’t get home for a few extra days. She was more than happy to do additional drop-in visits and look after our kitties when we couldn’t get home until a few days later than planned. It was stressful for us, but Katherine made sure that we did not have to stress out about our kitties! I highly recommend Katherine if you’re looking for someone competent, kind, responsive, and flexible!”

He also took care of some minor things when I asked him like a camera the cats knocked over. I am really glad I hired Murray and Ana to take care of my cats while I was gone - and my cats were glad as well.”

About: I have always had a genuine love for animals and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I enjoy spending time playing with pets, giving them plenty of attention, feeding them, going on walks, and making sure they are happy and comfortable while their family is away. I will care for your pet with the same love and attention I give my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available during the week and on weekends, and I’m happy to work with each pet parent’s schedule and their pet’s normal routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and routines. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention and affection while also respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I’ll treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

About: I love playing with cats and I have 2 cats myself. And a family cat at my parents that I look after often. It’s difficult for full-time workers to look after their pets so I’m willing to help out in my free time! I work from home so I am able to provide any services. From time-to-time I cat-sit for my friends and people in my building. I work hybrid (1-2 days in office and mainly at home) so I can make myself available any time for pet-sitting. I love walking and feeding dogs, and can make house stops for kitties! I have 2 cats and my family has one cat at home. I was the one to introduce cats to my family and we’ve never looked back. I love to play with my cats everyday, keep them engaged and feed them healthy/prescription food. I keep my home clean and clean the litter box everyday. The service I’d offer is going in person to play with the cat(s), feed them and clean the litter box and take out the litter when the owners are away.

About: Well to begin with, I have experience walking numerous dogs since the day I could remember. My love for animals in general is immense, contributing to the positive well being of animals is my passion and being able to focus that into a career is something I would have never imagined simply by making sure dogs go when they need too. It all began by simply watching over my own dog, and then it lead me into walking my neighbors dogs and eventually I took it upon myself to walk others in the neighborhood. The first dogs I took care of was a chunky miniature pincher and a 70 lbs pit bull terrier, I am not prejudice towards animals specifically dogs since they are in my field and I have years of experience with different breeds of all sorts. As I am a new LLC on the rise I am in the midst of obtaining my ARC certifications for the health and general knowledge of animals, considering on a professional level I take this accordingly and not enough dog walking companies supply this for their walkers. Being trustworthy, reliable, respectable, caring and cautious are few of the many traits I carry and endorse for my business in which I believe are critical in the dog walking business. Every dog is unique, just like a person I would not want to disrespect their space and have them catch an unapproachable vibe from me. I like to make sure I build comfort and confidence with the dogs I will work with, considering not many may be comfortable with letting someone unfamiliar walk them, my specialty. Walking dogs for me personally is never something I like to do in a haste, I enjoy in executing my job correctly and efficiently. I make sure every walk is special at times they come back home with a better attitude than the dogs left in. My main goal for the dogs are exercise, safety, fun and making sure they are able to do their business enough. I am a full time dog walker and lifetime animal lover so meeting accommodations for him or her is never a problem. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile hopefully I gain the opportunity and trust of being able to walk your furry child! Taking care of pups is my daily life. I have my own pups so it comes to me naturally. To do what needs to be done to make sure our pups are well taken care of! I do this full time! First of all, i make sure the pup is as comfortable as possible make them feel as if the parents are home. I walked them as many times as possible, keep all their needs up to date & give lots of love.

Rachel did an amazing job watching our cat Momo while we were away for two weeks. She was so caring, thoughtful, and detail-oriented. We loved how well she looked after Momo and kept everything so clean and tidy. It gave us total peace of mind knowing Momo was in such good hands. We’re so grateful for her help and would absolutely recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and trustworthy cat sitter!

We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter and would happily have her care for our pets again in the future. We highly recommend her!

She was wonderful with my cats and is especially great at reading their personalities and making shy or skittish cats feel comfortable. She was able to give medication without any issues and went out of her way to keep me updated about one of my cats’ health conditions. She was incredibly diligent, attentive, and caring. I would absolutely recommend her!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Union City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Union City on Rover is $29 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $39 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 12,921 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 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 City. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
