“I am so happy we found Candiance to check in on our doggy. She is so patient and understanding to our dog’s needs. She has great communication and it was easy for me to trust her to care for our dog.”
About: I don’t just watch pets but I truly bond with them! I’ve had my own cats for years and have been the trusted dog sitter for my family and friends since college, so I’ve seen it all and loved every minute of it. I’ll make sure to send you plenty of photos so you can see exactly how much fun they're having. My goal is to make sure your furry babies feel safe, happy, and totally spoiled while you’re away! I have flexible in office days but typically go in on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. I will be home all day Monday and Friday as I usually don’t make plans during the week. I’m mostly home over the weekend if I don’t make plans. I make sure to regularly update my availability to reflect my exact schedule, so you can always count on me being there when I say I will. My husband is also around most of times! Whether it’s a workday or the weekend, your pet will have constant companionship and a steady routine. My priority is keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible to keep them happy and stress free. In my home, your pet becomes part of the family, with plenty of cozy spots for naps, dedicated playtime, and a safe, supervised environment where they can feel right at home. Regardless of the setting, I make sure they get all the exercise, cuddles, and mental stimulation they need, topped off with daily updates to let you know how they’re doing. I live in a spacious 2 bedroom so your pet will have plenty of space to roam around as well. I would love to have a details and instructions as I know every pet is different and I’m very good at following the instructions!
“Murray was an excellent cat sitter. He fed and played with my cats every day and even got my most timid cat to come out of hiding. 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.”
“I completely trust Calvin to look after my two cats while I’m away. I always come back to find them happy and well cared for. He responds quickly and scheduling a visit with him is always easy. I really appreciate his help taking care of my cats.”
“Always great to have Daniela visit our two cats, who love to see her. She provides them their ‘evening’ treats and spends time to love them up when we are away. It’s a great comfort to have Dani visit and ensure all is well when we are away.”
“Lana was a loving mom to our cat Aeva! Lana not only gave food and cleaned poop, she played and spoilt Aeva until she purred contentedly... Lana even visited her twice on a day where she had a family event and is not business minded whatsoever!”
About: Hello! My name is Janet, and I am dog mom to the 2 most wonderful rescue pups from DCAS, Georgie (our lovable and snuggly pittie basset hound mix) and Cleo (our sassy terrier mix diva with the fierce brows to match the ‘tude). I have had dogs in my home for most of my life, with ages starting from 11 weeks old up until the end of their precious and short lives... and from a wee few pounds up to 77 pounds of muscle! As my husband would say of me, I have never met a dog I didn’t love immediately. I love to play fetch or tug with the energetic pups, give belly rubs to the lush ones, and snuggle with every pup I meet.
“Our first time on Rover was rewarded in a heartwarming experience with Severine who was not just caring about our little calico baby Aeva, but showered her with love and compliments, calling her the softest cat she had ever held. Would highly recommend Severine, who is adept at all types of cat food prep, cat treats + fetch for exercise and even litter cleaning! Enjoy your holidays with peace of mind!”

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: 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.
“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. ?”
“Jack was fantastic! Visited our cats twice per day every day right on time and left nice notes each time. Remembered to give them their dental medicine every other day as well and after his last visit he kept our key fob until we got home just in case our flight got delayed or canceled and we needed him to visit them again. I hadn’t even thought of that possibility myself so I appreciate him thinking about that!”
About: My love for animals comes from my own experience as a dog mom to Blondie, who has been one of the most important parts of my life. Caring for her has taught me that pets are not just animals they are family members who deserve patience, affection, and dedicated care. Over the past 5 years, caring for Blondie has taught me the importance of responsibility, consistency, and understanding a dog’s unique needs. I understand how difficult it can be to leave your pet with someone else, which is why I would make it my priority to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, belly rubs, sticking to their routine, or simply keeping them company, I will treat your pet as if they were my own. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in loving and responsible hands. Caring for your pet isn’t just something I do it’s something I genuinely love. With a flexible schedule, I’m always available when your pet needs me most. I take the time to learn their routine and exactly what makes them feel safe and happy. Because when you’re away, your pet deserves more than just someone to check in they deserve someone who truly cares. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I always follow each owner’s instructions and make a pet’s well-being my top priority. I have a secure balcony where my dog Blondie loves to spend time every day watching people walk by and observing the world around her. It’s one of her favorite activities, and I enjoy giving her that time to relax and stay engaged with her surroundings. I believe every pet deserves patience, attention, and a loving environment where they feel safe and at home.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, cats and dogs. I currently have a 14 year old Husky and 14 year old Shiba Inu. I’ve had the Shiba since he was born and my husky was a rescue since she was 1 year old. My goal in life is to eventually start a dog rescue because I have a lot of love to give. I will treat your pets like my own. My husband won’t let me adopt any more animals because we plan on moving out of the country in the next few years so this is how I get my animal fix. I work in aviation. When I am gone, I am gone and when I am home I am home all day and am looking to fill my day with visiting pets and running/walking dogs. I will care for your pet however is requested. If your pets need play time they will get it. If they need snuggles, they will get it. I’m good with both high and low energy pets. I have senior dog experience and medication/injection administration.
“Daisy was absolutely phenomenal! She took such great care of my cat. She always kept me up to date when coming, took loads of photos, left everything so tidy, and gave my cat lots of love. My cat is quite old and needs meds, she did a great job with that too!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Union City
Tessa has been wonderful 😊 Arya took well to her rather quickly which was impressive. She's always respectful and provides me a full detailed report. Of course, photos too! With my new commute and insane schedule, she has been so accommodating and a gem. Arya and I are lucky to have her 🐕🙃
Loretto was wonderful with my dog, Mapache. He can be a bit of a troublemaker and doesn’t always warm up to new sitters, so I was pleasantly surprised by how calm and comfortable he was during Loretto’s visit. Loretto was patient, reliable, and clearly has a great way with dogs. I would happily book with him again!
Everything ran super smooth even after me booking last minute. Doosung has great communication skills, he was super pontual and sent tons of photos. Happy my dog had quality time with him while I was away. Thank you Doosung for the support and will def reach you over again.
Haziza is the absolute best!!! My dog cheddar adores Haziza. She is always so punctual, communicative, friendly, and just overall a fantastic person to look after your furry little pal. We have rebooked Haziza again and again, and I can’t recommend her highly enough!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 26,982 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Union City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
