“If you’re looking for someone who will care for your dog like family, I can’t recommend Josie enough. She took amazing care of my French Bulldog, Raze, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Raze can be a little quirky and has his own personality, and Josie took the time to understand him instead of just watching him. It was obvious he felt comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for. She kept me updated, treated him with kindness and patience, and went above and beyond to make sure he was happy. Coming home to a relaxed, well-cared-for dog says everything about the level of care she provides. Thank you, Josie, for treating Raze like he was your own. Your compassion, professionalism, and love for animals truly show. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust you with him again, and I highly recommend you to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter.”
“Dru was such a great home and pet sitter! She was very communicative, kind, knowledgeable, and she was very patient with my highly anxious, noisy, husky/shepherd mix. Her and her partner were respectful of my space and left it in great shape for me to come home to after a long travel day. Dru is everything I look for in a kind, responsible, communicative, trustworthy person to trust my home and babies with, while I'm away. I'm grateful for the peace of mind she provided me with, by knowing my babies and home were in good hands, while I was away. I will absolutely have her sit for me again!! Thanks Dru!”
“Victor did an overnight sit for us and was great! They were very communicative throughout the stay and sent lots of photos, which we really appreciated. The house was left neat and orderly, and most importantly, the dogs were happy and well cared for.”

“I think our dogs want us to go out of town more so they can hang out with Katie! She does such a wonderful job taking care of them and sharing their days with us. Sadie and Cy love having her over, and we do too!”
“Brittany was so sweet with Hank and Red for the week she stayed with them! They immediately loved her and her calm energy. She even took off work to spend extra time with them after Hank got a wild hair and ate her grapes off the counter. It gave me so much peace of mind that she was looking after them.”
About: Hi, I’m Jordyn. I am 26 years old with an Bachelor of Science degree. I have a passion of caring for animals. I have 1 dog named Leo, he is an American Staffordshire Pitbull. I’ve had him since 2020 when he was 3 months old. I have been dog sitting for 6 years now. I have experience working in a dog daycare for 3 years. My additional duties working in a dog daycare involved keeping the kennels clean of waste, dog fur, stray food and water, and other material that keep dogs from being comfortable away from their owners. I enjoy being able to play and have fun with dogs. While walking your dog I will make sure he/she stays dehydrated throughout the summer/winter. Feel free to contact me about any questions you have or concerns and times that I am available to care. Thank you! Feeding: Start the day by feeding pets according to their specific dietary needs and specific feeding times through out the day. Exercise: Take dogs for a morning/afternoon walk or engage them in playtime. 1. Feeding: Ensure pets are fed according to their specific dietary needs. Provide fresh water daily. 2. Exercise: Take dogs for regular walks or play with them to keep them active. For cats, engage them with toys or provide space for climbing and exploration. 3. Safe Environment: Remove any hazards from the home, such as toxic plants, chemicals, or small objects that could be swallowed. 4. Attention and Affection: Spend quality time with pets to meet their social needs. This can include petting, playing, or simply sitting together. 5. Follow Client Instructions: Adhere to any specific care instructions provided by the pet owner, including feeding schedules and preferences. 6.

About: Hey pet parents!!! It’s Jaci your pets’ new best friend! I’ve always had a big heart for dogs and truly enjoy being around them. I’m a loving, patient, and dependable person who enjoys giving dogs plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet, and I would make sure your dog feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I work as a full-time bartender but it’s very flexible so it gives me lots of free time to walk and sit dogs throughout most days. Then as clients become more regular it’ll be easier working them into a weekly routine. I used to have multiple dogs in the house that I would have to take care of, so I’m used to being in a group of large dogs and taking care of them all at once.
“Taylor is awesome! We were worried about leaving Wesson and Dakota with someone else since they have only been with us, but it went great. Taylor played with them and they were happy and tired pups when we got home. Will definitely use Taylor again. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for sure.”
“First time using Rover or any dog sitting service and we are very happy. Robert was great with our 3 dogs and respectful of our home. Will definitely use him again in the future.”

“Lucy filed in on short notice for a two week vacation trip. She took good care of our two dogs including one that is very wary of strangers. Our house was immaculate when we returned and our plants were in great shape also.”
About: I grew up on a small farm in Oklahoma, so animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember and currently have a little 10-pound poodle named Duke. He’s super friendly, well-behaved, and loves being around other animals. Over the years, I’ve regularly watched pets for family and friends, everything from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a little extra TLC. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I truly enjoy making animals feel comfortable and cared for. Now that I’m offering my services on Rover, I’m excited to meet even more furry friends (and their humans!). Duke and I are looking forward to making new connections. Connect with me for a meet and greet. I'm a lifelong animal lover and dependable sitter based in Oklahoma City. Whether it's snuggles on the couch, long walks, or keeping your pet's routine just right, I’m here to help you travel worry free. I have a very flexible hybrid work schedule, and my office is only a mile from home. This allows me to easily stop by during lunch or whenever your pet needs extra care and attention. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small animals of all ages. Friends and family know me as the “go-to pet aunt,” and now I’m excited to offer that same care to your furry family members. I’m responsible, respectful of your home, and always make sure pets feel safe and loved. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you never have to wonder how things are going. I love taking photos by the way. Let’s connect! I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and learn how I can provide the best care for them. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal like my own and do my best to keep their routine consistent, calm, and stress free. I keep a close eye on all pets in my care, especially during walks or playtime, and I’m mindful of their behavior and energy levels. Duke is gentle and well behaved, so he helps create a peaceful environment for visiting pets. I also take the responsibility of caring for your home seriously. If I’m house sitting, you can expect clear communication, updates, and total respect for your space.
About: I have had family pets since childhood. As an adult I have always had one or two dogs at a time. I’m the friend of my friend group who is always down to watch their pets while they are out of town. I love all animals and want them all happy and safe. :) I’m currently on a job hunt so I’m extra flexible and available! I was (and hope to continue) working from home which was very helpful to be flexible to accomodate watching pets at different times throughout the week. Feel free to provide detailed instructions on the care for your pet! I understand how important routines are especially in special circumstances for some pets.

FAQs for House Sitting - Union City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 678 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Union City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Union City walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Union City maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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!
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 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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
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.

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.
