Malia has been fantastic with our nervous shepherd, Selkie. I am very cautious about who I leave her with and Malia handled her fabulously, made sure she had the best time and keep us updated with photos the whole time we were away. It was super reassuring and so happy she could take care of her both times we have been away. Highly recommend and will 100% be calling upon her to pet sit for us in the future!

Aunya was fantastic. She made sure all four dogs were well taken care and even cleaned up as she left the house. She was very responsive and provided check-ins. I would definitely let her take care of my wild pack any time!

Seniors and special needs pets as well. I'm not squeamish. Health care and Military background. This is my primary source of income.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience as a pet owner my whole life for cats and dogs (I have one Shih-tzu and one cat as of now!). I have also provided walks for other pets for 2 years for my family and friends, offering personalized care and a deep understanding of animal behavior and needs. My passion for pets ensures they receive the attention, love, and exercise they deserve! I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I'm looking to spend my time doing something I genuinely enjoy, and caring for pets is a great fit. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting, I can easily work them into my daily routine and make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I treat every pet like they're my own! I make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, plenty of exercise, and lots of attention. I always follow the owner's instructions, whether that's sticking to a feeding schedule, giving medication, or keeping up with their normal routine. I keep the environment clean and safe, watch for anything that seems off, and send regular updates with photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to help them feel comfortable, relaxed, and loved while you're away.

About: I’ve grown up around all different types of animals and have experience caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently own a spoiled pomeranian and 2 very needy cockatiels so I REALLY understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, give fresh water, take dogs on walks, play with them, administer basic medications if needed, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention. I’ll care for your pet like they’re my own and always keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!! Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I’m currently a barista at Dutch Bros, so my work schedule changes from week to week. Because of that, I keep my availability updated and communicate clearly with pet parents to make sure I can give every pet the time and attention they deserve. Whether it’s walks, drop in visits, feeding, playtime, or overnight care, I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care and keeping you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. ❤️ Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I know every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I always take the time to follow your instructions to a T. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll make sure they have fresh water, meals on schedule, plenty of exercise, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I’m respectful of your home, keep doors and gates secure, and always prioritize your pet’s safety on walks and during visits. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands!!

Omar is really a very good dog sitter, he is sweet, calm, knowledgeable, he is a natural! Our two labs Floki and Raven loved him, they are big energetic dogs and he was able to handle them both with no problems, he even walked them together!! I will definitely book him again and recommend him as responsible and respectful.

About: I have had multiple dogs for decades. Dogs just seem to love me. I guess it's because they can tell I love them so much. I'm really good at taking care of things for your dog. I love walking them and playing. I don't even mind picking up the poop. I'm currently working part-time as a house cleaner. So I have flexibility in my schedule to take care of fur babies. Evenings and weekends are almost always open. I treat all dogs with kindness and respect. I would want others to take care of my babies that way. I always double check the food and water. If there are extra things needed, I make sure to get those done as well.

Jessica was amazing! She kept us informed and sent pics! she was so sweet and kind and I know our pupps loved her. The next day when she was gone they went straight to her “room” when they woke up. That made me so happy knowing they were very well loved on. She even made sure the floors and bedding were clean when we came home and left the sweetest pup report cards! I hope she will always take care of our babies🩵

About: I live on a farm, have 1 border collie named Maximus who is 12yrs old, 1 Catahoula Mrs. Katniss that’s 10months and train dogs as well. I have a 115 acre farm area where your pet can run and play! Awesome place for a dog and Max/Kat loves visitors. They can run around, play, throw rope, whatever your pet enjoys. If your pet likes to be active I certainly have the area for it! Your pet and I go on daily walks and daily awesome adventures. If needed I have GARMIN tracking collars to place on dogs that may venture away during adventures, just let me know and I’d be more than happy to let your furry friend borrow one of mine! It will have an awesome time and I’ll send daily photos of our cool trips to your cell phone. I will be the only person handling and taking care of your baby. Pets staying 7+ days will also get to enjoy basic obedience training a few times a day. Our goal is to send pets home better than they left. We pride ourselves in running a very clean and professional facility where your furry family members is family to us! *please note, we do understand that we may be more costly than other boarders on ROVER. However, we stand by the fact that you get what you pay for. Please consider that a professional trainer will be with your pet 24/7 while in my care* We are here to provide great customer service and care for pets, not engage in a price war. I work from home, train dogs, and will be with them 24/7. Your dog will receive continuous love from me and my wife. It’s a great environment. If your dog stays inside at your house it’s inside at mine. I can keep them in a kennel in the living room with my other 2 dogs.

FAQs for House Sitting - Union Grove

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 319 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Union Grove. 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 Grove 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 Grove 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.

Tip: 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 Grove 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 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.

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

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
