About: Hi! We’re Faith and Nik, lifelong animal lovers who truly believe pets are family. Between the two of us, we’ve had animals our entire lives, including dogs, cats (and even guinea pigs and fish!) and we bring that same care and respect to every pet we care for. Your pet will have plenty of company here. Nik is retired and certified in animal first aid, while Faith works from home, meaning your dog or cat will enjoy continual supervision and affection. They’ll also have a friend in our 11-year-old Lab mix, Nala. She is sweet, gentle, and well-socialized with both cats and dogs, making her the perfect, low-stress companion for visiting pets. We live in a spacious apartment next door to a new park with a nice dog run. Having provided sitting services for friends and family for years, we understand how important routine and comfort are when you’re away. We treat every animal as if they were our own, while following your specific care instructions to the letter and providing regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind. Whether your pet prefers high-energy playtime, cozy cuddles, or just a quiet place to nap, we adapt to their personality to make them feel right at home. We can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member!

About: I love all pets and would love to take care of them. I’ve taken care of puppies as well as senior dogs, cats as well. Looking to care for pets part-time.

“Mari has lovely warm and calm energy that is great for my cat Charlie - and was super communicative with updates while she was catsitting. Thank you so much Mari!”
About: Well to begin with, I have experience walking numerous dogs since the day I was born. 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 dogs, and then it lead into feeding them and eventually I took it upon myself to walk them. 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 very accordingly and not enough dog walking companies supply the same 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 a bad vibe from me. I like to make sure I build comfort with the dogs I 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 use the bathroom 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.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Union City
Jessica did an amazing job. Went above instructions and made sure my kitty was comfortable. Washed food bowls and changed water and litter daily. She even got her to come out from under the bed for treats. I am looking forward to rebooking her services again and again now that I know I have a trusted sitter.
Hannah is an amazing cat sitter. She has taken care of our little girl Miley a couple of times now and has done a great job every time. She has followed all of our directions and we come home to a very happy cat each time we’ve used Hannah. We highly recommend!!
Ashley is an excellent sitter! She cared for my 2 cats for over a week and gave them both plenty of attention, love and treats every day. She also did a great job with giving my senior cat his daily medication. Would definitely recommend and work with her again ◡̈
Jessica is such an angel. She takes care of our Roy like her own. We got stranded on a very delayed flight which would result in our kitty missing a meal, she offered to come see him one more time so he wouldn’t go without. I can’t thank her enough for being so kind to us and Roy! I can’t say enough Great things about her!!
Yarden was amazing!! I have never been so satisfied with someone watching my two cats. I could tell by the pictures Yarden sent that they were completely comfortable and happy with Yarden. It was the first time I’ve come back from a vacation where my very skittish cat did not have a nervous stomach. Yarden is sweet, caring, honest, and really listened to every instruction I had shared regarding my kitties. I am so happy I found her and hope she is available whenever we need to go out of town.

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
