About: I am particularly gentle and careful with pets and have had plenty of experience learning how to handle dogs that are not mine (in terms of where or where not to touch them or look at them). Dogs tend to gravitate towards me easily because of how I approach them. I just moved here, so I am only doing odd jobs and self-employed work at the moment. My schedule is quite open and flexible as a result. I do not have the means nor permission to care for a pet in my own home but would be happy to accommodate them in yours with whatever tools and rules you prefer.

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.

“Leslie is fantastic! Sean Connery is a demon spawn and Leslie did a great job with him even when Leslie walked into the apartment and Sean had escaped his crate and tore apart my living room. Luckily, Sean is only visiting. Leslie is great with my actual dog Echo who he walks every day. 12/10 would recommend.”

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 grew up loving and living with animals my entire life! There hasn't been a time where I haven't lived with an animal of some sort. Dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, and even fish! Dogs, fish, and various sweet rodents have been my life until I was 24, then I met the two feline loves of my life-Carl and Dixon! All of my friends have either a cat or a dog (and often, multiples of each!) so I am consistently surrounded by fellow animal lovers and caregivers who have taught me everything I know. I have cared for and looked after friend's and family's dogs and cats from as young 6 weeks all the way up to 19 years old! I'm experienced with senior cats and dogs especially. I am a freelance opera singer who works from home remotely (and can work anywhere if needed) so I am able to drop-in, walk, or pet sit pretty much any time or any day of the week with ample notice. I will be caring for your pet in their own environment so they feel secure and relaxed and can keep calm while you're away. I will also follow your established routine for your pet such as feeding, walking, playtime, as well as light grooming and medicine administering if needed. If house sitting, I am willing and able to do things like watering plants, collecting mail, and other light household duties to keep you and your pet's home running as smooth as possible. This goes without saying but cleanliness and orderliness are a priority and I will leave your home as clean as I found it after each visit/homestay. I will happily provide detailed and frequent updates on your pets with photos and videos so you feel peace of mind while you are away. Open and clear communication is key to yours and your pets' well-being :) Not all pets are created equal and I am committed to providing personalized, attentive, and professional care ensures your sweet babies are happy, healthy, and well-cared under my watch.

We have a selective dog who is suspicious of new people. Katherine has taken the time to introduce herself to Leo slowly and put in extra effort to deal with his weird quirks. Now, Leo is comfortable with her and we're so grateful! We highly recommend Katherine.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Leigh was absolutely AMAZING! Foxy is very attached to me and my partner, so I was honestly a little nervous about her first walk with someone new. Leigh was incredibly patient, gentle, and reassuring, and she made Foxy feel comfortable enough to go out and enjoy her walk. When Foxxxy came back, she was so excited and happy — it was clear she had an amazing time! I’m beyond thankful for how wonderful and caring Leigh was with her. I would absolutely recommend Leigh to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their furry baby. She was safe, attentive, patient, and genuinely caring from start to finish. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐾❤️

Jimmy, Noah & their team are very responsible in communicating Sona’s progress and daily updates during their walks! They don’t miss communicating any delays expected for the day or any changes. They’re very understanding of Sona, able to guess what she likes during their walks and give her time to adjust and relax as needed as well!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Union City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Union City on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 28,734 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Union City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Union City. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Union City.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

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.

Every walker 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 .

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

  • 87% of walkers 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.

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 walker.
