About: Hi! I’m Janise. Traveling can bring out the best and the worst in anyone and I’m here to make that trip, whether it’s a quick getaway or a long haul, as easy as possible. Let me lend a hand! 🤚🏾 Between me, my husband, our kids, and our dog Frankie, your pet is walking into a full house of love. We have a large backyard where the dogs can run and play while working together as a family to make sure your fur baby gets the attention and love they deserve. Pet care fits in really well with our routine. I work, but I’m in and out of the house throughout the day, and so is my husband and teenage son, so there’s almost always someone around to walk, play with, and check on your pet. Weekends and holidays we’re all home, so your pet will get even more attention those days For boarding, your dog stays right in our home with the family they’ll have a dog to keep them company, a big backyard to run around in, and plenty of attention from all of us. They’re treated like part of the family, not just a guest. For walks, I keep things consistent with whatever routine your dog is used to same schedule, same pace, whatever works best for them. For pick up and drop off, I make sure the handoff is easy and stress free. I’ll communicate with you the whole time so you always know your pet is in good hands

About: 🐾 Pet Care Experience Hi! My name is Jesse, I’m 28, and animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. ❤️ I’ve been surrounded by and caring for various animals throughout my 28 years of being alive coupled with 15+ years of hands-on pet care experience through pet sitting, walking, fostering, and caring for fur children of my own. My experience comes from pet sitting and walking for friends and family, previous fostering, and having fur children of my own. I truly believe pets aren’t just pets — they are our babies and part of our family. 🐾💜 I understand that every animal is different, with their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and needs extra patience, has additional needs, or simply wants to relax and be spoiled — that’s exactly what they will get! I make it a priority to take the time to ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for, while also following their individual routines and needs as closely as possible. Making your pet a priority is my priority. 💜 My goal is for every furry guest to feel right at home and go home just as happy as when they arrived. After all, their happiness is my happiness! 😊 I look forward to welcoming your pet as a new addition to my large fur family! While they’re in my care, they’re not just a guest — they’re family to me, too. 🐾💜 🦟 Flea & Tick Prevention Policy For the health, safety, and comfort of every pet in my care, I require all dogs staying for boarding or daycare to be actively receiving flea and tick prevention. Prior to confirming a new booking, I may request verification of current prevention, such as a recent veterinary record, medication receipt, or photo of the current preventative product. This policy helps maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for every animal staying in my home. Since pets share the same environment, preventing the spread of fleas and ticks is an important part of keeping everyone healthy and comfortable. My number one priority is making sure every animal in my care feels safe, loved, comfortable, and genuinely well cared for throughout their stay. ❤️ Thank you for understanding and helping me maintain a safe and healthy environment for all of my furry guests! 🐾💜 Pet care is my full-time commitment and my full time job, so I’m able to offer flexibility when it comes to your schedule and your pet’s individual needs. 🩷 It’s truly an honor and privilege to spend my time caring for animals. Taking care of your fur babies is not just my job — it’s genuinely what I love to do and how I choose to spend my time. I always do my best to make time for you and your precious babies, whether they need walks, playtime, companionship, or simply someone to be there for them. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while making your pet feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. 🐾💗 When caring for your pets, I believe being attentive, thorough, and dependable is incredibly important. I carefully follow your instructions, pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and body language, and make their safety, comfort, and individual needs my top priority. For pets staying in my home, I have plenty of space, toys, and extra rooms where your fur baby can have their own quiet space if they want it. At the same time, my home is their home while they’re here — they’re welcome to relax wherever they’re comfortable and cozy up wherever they please. 🐾💜 I also love taking dogs out for walks, park trips, and even little doggy picnics! During warmer weather, I’m especially mindful of the heat and adjust accordingly, choosing shorter, more frequent walks and making sure your pup stays comfortable and safe. For my feline guests, I’m perfectly happy with a respectful “stare at each other from a distance” relationship 😂 — unless they decide they want cuddles! Then my lap, furniture, or any high-up ledge becomes their personal throne. 🐈💜 Most importantly, I want every pet to be treated like they’re my own and for their stay to feel more like a fun, relaxing vacation than time away from home. I’m always happy to provide regular photos, videos, updates, and even FaceTime so you can stay connected with your fur baby while they’re with me. 🩵 I’m also experienced with administering medication to both cats and dogs when needed, and I have experience understanding animal body language, including through fostering animals who needed extra care and support while recovering or adjusting to a new environment. Experienced with: - 🐾 Special-needs cats & dogs - 🐾 Puppies & kittens - 🐾 Senior animals - 🐈 Cat-friendly pets - 🐾 Rescue animals & animals in training - 🐕 Big dogs - 💜 Pit bulls - 🐾 Caring for multiple dogs and/or cats at once - 💊 Medication administration I’m excited to provide your fur baby with a safe, loving, fun, and comfortable getaway while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re being treated like family. 🩵 Please feel free to ask me any questions before booking — your pet’s needs, safety, and comfort will always be my priority. 🦟 Flea & Tick Prevention Policy For the health, safety, and comfort of every pet in my care, I require all dogs staying for boarding or daycare to be actively receiving flea and tick prevention. Prior to confirming a new booking, I may request some form of verification of current prevention, such as a recent veterinary record, medication receipt, or photo of the current preventative product. This policy is in place as a preventative measure to help maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for every animal staying in my home. Because pets are sharing the same environment, preventing the spread of fleas and ticks is an important part of keeping everyone healthy and comfortable during their stay. My number one priority is making sure every animal in my care feels safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their stay — and ultimately goes home just as happy, if not happier, than when they arrived. ❤️ Thank you so much for understanding and helping me maintain a safe and healthy environment for all of my furry guests! 🐾💜

About: Hi! My name is Natty, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I have experience taking care of multiple dogs and cats, including my own pets: a sweet beagle named Harley, a golden retriever named Layla, and three rescued cats named Benito, Minnie, and Oreo, all of whom were adopted as strays and became part of our family. Being surrounded by animals every day has taught me how important patience, attention, and love are when caring for pets. I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping pets company, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treating them like family. I am very responsible, caring, and communicative, and I will always provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members and make them feel happy and loved! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pets throughout the day. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and playtime! I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own pets at home. I always make sure animals feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for, while keeping owners updated with photos and communication for peace of mind.

About: I love caring for and being around animals. I have more than 5 years of experience caring for pets. They’re precious and deserve tender care. I have cared for dogs and cats through check ins, walks, and house sitting. I have mostly watched dogs or cats 3-4 or older. I have recently watched a kitten who is turning 1 soon and had a lot of fun so I’d be open to doing it again. I am a recent graduate starting a new job. Pet care would be more during my weekends and free time. Seeing animals when off work is such a reward! My current availability is spontaneous due to my varying work schedule so I always make sure to keep my availability on my calendar up to date. I have pet sit overnight in homes for dogs and cats. I learn quickly and take notes to assure I care for any pet well. I like to ask clients about what they typically do with their pet in a day that their pet will expect outside of feeding and walking time. This might include playing with toys once they come home for 15 minutes or treats after walks. I take pictures throughout my time with the pets to keep the owner(s) updated on what’s happening.

About: I have been taking care of dogs from a young age. My family always deemed me to the go-to when they had to go away and wanted their doggies to be in sweet and well-kept care. I have experience with different breeds, age groups, and attitudes of course. I am currently on a hybrid schedule with my University, which means I am able to do my lessons online or in person. This leaves my schedule free to fit other responsibilities. In my home I try to give the pet the same energy their family gives them at home, if I know their home tends to leave the TV on for them, I will always do that. If it’s a quiet home, we will turn all devices off and make it a laidback spot. In a client’s home, I will follow the same routine instructed by pet owner.

About: Hi! I’m Natalia, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals. Activities like walking, being in nature, and staying active are a big part of my lifestyle, which naturally fits well with caring for pets. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ve cared for three cats, including two that were very calm and affectionate, and one that was initially more distant and cautious. With patience and a gentle approach, I was able to build trust over time, helping the cat feel more comfortable and open to interaction. I’ve also cared for a small dog with hip dysplasia. I followed the owner’s instructions closely to support the dog’s comfort, including gentle handling and basic massage. Since the dog couldn’t use stairs, I would carefully carry them when needed. This experience taught me to be attentive, patient, and mindful of a pet’s physical limitations. What sets me apart is my patience and attention to detail. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level, and I always adapt my care accordingly. Whether it’s an energetic pet that needs engagement or a more sensitive one that needs space, I focus on creating a calm and safe environment. I’m reliable and respectful of routines, including feeding, walks, and any specific care instructions. My goal is to make pets feel secure and cared for, while giving owners complete peace of mind. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet and create a positive, stress-free experience for both of you. My schedule is structured, but I offer reliable availability for specific types of care. I work in the afternoons and evenings (typically from 4:00 PM to around 11:00 PM), so I’m not available during those hours. However, I have flexibility in the mornings and early afternoons, especially if scheduled in advance. From Tuesday to Saturday, I can often accommodate morning visits or adjust my schedule when needed. I’m also available for overnight stays if your pet needs care during the night. Sundays and Mondays are my most flexible days, with greater availability throughout the day—especially Mondays. I’m happy to coordinate with pet owners to find a schedule that works best for both sides while ensuring pets receive consistent and attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always aim to follow their usual routines as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any specific instructions provided. I make sure the environment is clean, safe, and calm, and I’m respectful of the client’s home at all times. I also provide updates and photos, so owners can feel reassured while they are away. My priority is to create a stress-free experience for both the pet and the owner by being attentive, reliable, and caring.

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.

Tori was amazing! She took all the toy carnage my dogs did in stride and cleaned up the necessary stuff. She followed directions, took them for walks, played with them when they had too much energy, and cleaned an accidental pee spot … which I cannot see. I’d hate to highly recommend her, then not be able to book her for dog care in the future ? Seriously? Amazing work. ?

About: Hello, I’m Emelin and I’m a very energetic, attentive, and always up for an adventure. Pets are an adventure, you don’t quite always know what to expect for them but whatever comes in the way you must be able to care for them. Similar experience I’ve had was working at a daycare and essentially pets are like your children. They need a lot of care, attention, and entertainment in order to be satisfied which is no problem. When in need I will be readily available to assist you and your pets needs majority of the times. I offer a variety of services in the most efficient and best manner to meet all your needs. I can also be very flexible in order to meet your needs!! I am mostly just studying, I am pretty flexible so I can easily work out a schedule that best fits yours and the pets needs. I have a cat of my own who is very active and requires a lot of attention and have also pet sitted for friend while they have gone away. I am pretty well rounded in the pets needs.

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 want to take care of others! 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.

She has such a kind and gentle nature and we loved having her watch Hampton for us. So grateful to have found her and will definitely be booking again soon! ✨

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Union City stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Union City choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Union City with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
