“Our babies were very well taken care of while we were away, and we returned to a home that was in better condition than what we left! We received daily updates with multiple photos and the boys were taken out for walks every day. Cannot recommend enough!! Will be a returning client, for sure.”
“Melissa is a PHENOMENAL Rover. Above and beyond. We've probably used 8-9 rovers across 3 states over the past 6 years and she is one of the best. Took the girls on extra long exercise down to their favorite beach and cleaned them off afterwards, took our trash out to the curb even when I forgot to ask, kept everything clean and checked in regularly. Even started wash with guest room sheets before she left. Most importantly, Happy happy dogs. Pictures of Tova (our more aloof pup) snuggling Melissa Day 1 spoke volumes. Will absolutely book with her whenever we can. 10/10”
“Appreciated Laurin very much, she sent pics and updates which are great for a nervous mom like me. She left a handwritten note as a thank you and even ran the vacuum before she left, a kind gesture for a weary traveler to arrive home to a clean house.”
“Chandra was great! She took amazing care of our pets and the house was very clean when we returned, she washed everything she used. She was super communicative and absolutely went above and beyond for our furry loved ones.”
“Maria was quickly responsive to my texts. She sent photos of my dogs and checked in with me even if I hadn’t sent her a text. She was able to work with my security system-no easy feat. She was polite and left the house and room neat. I was reluctant to use a service and someone I didn’t know, but I would happily use Rover and Maria again.”
“Awesome dog and house sitter experience! Communication was top-notch from the get-go, and they did an amazing job looking after our dogs and home. The photo and video updates were awesome! We've already booked them for our next trip. Definitely recommend them for reliable and thoughtful sitting services.”
“Bryan was awesome! He took really good care of our dog Bella. This was our first experience with hiring a dog sitter and it exceded our expectations. Bryan was very pacient, observant and kind with Bella. Bryan would give us updates throughout the day which was great. Definetly recommend Bryan he wont dissapoint!”
“Sophia was so wonderful!! She was very sweet, sent me consistent pics of my corgi with great communication, & left my house looking just how I left it. Couldn’t recommend her enough!! Thank you ❤️”
About: Of my 10 years of pet care experience, 8 of those years includes veterinary medicine. I love all different kinds of animals, and am good with all types of personalities, fear levels, and temperaments. I can also administer medications and care for pets with special needs. My other work is freelance, so my schedule is usually open and flexible. Overnight stays are easy for me to configure, and I'm able to prioritize your pets in my schedule. My main priority is the pets safety and happiness. I have experience de-escalating anxiety, redirecting aggression, and navigating tension between pets. I always double leash dogs for walks and I am experienced with all varieties of leash, walk, and play based behavior.
“I cannot recommend Vanesa enough. She made us feel so comfortable when we have an anxious dog who’s never been watched by someone she doesn’t know before. And she was amazing at sending updates and pictures of our babies. I’m just so grateful to have had such a pleasant experience thanks to her!”
About: I have taken care of cats, reptiles, and both large and small dog breeds since I was young. Working in a pet store, I have experience starting off new animal friendships on the right foot and hope to meet yours! I work in an elementary school and have availability in the afternoons and on weekends. Open availability during summer (even if it is last minute)! I am used to households with more than one pet of more than one species-- I understand that each pets living arrangement is unique and am able to accommodate for yours!
“Becky was really wonderful with our two dogs when we took a short vacation. My little adult chihuahua rescues 💕 loved her at first sight. Becky was quick to respond to messages and she sent several cute doggie photos everyday. She came to my home two times before we left. The Meet n Greet lasted more than an hour. The second time was for my dogs to be comfortable with her. I highly recommend using Becky!”
“My 11 month old pup is super active and Johanna went above and beyond ensuring she was engaged in play and got plenty of exercise. She kept me informed on everything they did each day and sent lots of pictures. She was safety conscious knowing the Harper J is a bit mischievous. Really flexible and went out of her way to make sure Harper J was comfortable and taken care of. Johanna definitely alleviated any fears I had leaving Harper J to be cared for. I would and will use her again for and housesitting needs in the future.”
“Cattleya was wonderful with my two dogs and house sitting during my vacation. She is incredibly responsible, communicative, and patient with both dogs. It was great having her as a reliable, trustworthy sitter while I was gone! I look forward to having her watch my dogs in the future.”
“Whitney took amazing care of our two high energy pups and took such wonderful care of our home. I finally feel like I can leave town and know everything will be great!!! We look forward to booking Whitney again soon!!”
“Our pups adored Brougan. They were very well taken care of. One had a broken toe nail and that required watching him and putting on bandages so he wouldn't lick it. Brougan also watered all of plants for us and left the house clean. We will definetly be using Brougan again. Thank you.”
“Hello Fellow Roverenes! Good news is Diane is wonderful, now a great friend of Chidi and Ellie, and went above and beyond the call of duty when Chidi lacerated his left front ankle pad and needed stitches. Bandaged the leg, got Chidi and Ellie in the car, got them to the pet hospital and settled in, stayed with them to make sure everything was good until I arrived. Thank you Diane!”
“Simonne is the best!!! She did an outstanding job with our two dogs!! They both warmed up to her immediately. She kept us updated with pictures and treated them like they were her own. It is clear that she is an expert in caring for animals. We were so happy to find someone we can trust with our dogs and we hope to have her dog sit for us again in the future!”
“She took great care of our dogs and home while we were away. She kept us updated, followed instructions, and made sure the pups were comfortable and well cared for. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We came home to happy, relaxed dogs and everything in great shape. Thank you, for helping make our trip much less stressful! Most importantly, she was very sweet to our babies, and that means the world to us. 🐾💕”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Union Mill
This was our first time using Rover and we were lucky enough to get Hannah for our first sitter. From the first contact with Hannah I knew I wanted her to watch our pack! She is very friendly and outgoing and you can tell she loves dogs. We received updates throughout her stay along with photos showing us how relaxed and happy our pups were. We will definitely use Hanna again when we need another dog sitter. Thank you Hannah for taking care of our pups❤️
Alisha is wonderful!! This was our first big trip away from our boy and we felt so comfortable with him in her care. Lots of great updates and photos. We already have her booked for another upcoming trip and we’re so grateful to know our little man will be in such good hands. Absolutely recommended her!
Hannah was fantastic with my two pups! She was responsible, trustworthy, and a great communicator from start to finish. I really appreciated the updates and knowing my dogs were in such good hands while I was away. They were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I got home. I’m super happy with the care she provided and will definitely be using Hannah again. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️
Hands down, the best sitter ever! My dogs absolutely adored her, she was incredibly trustworthy, responsible, communication was excellent, just the best! Sent tons of pictures, made moments when I missed my dogs easier by sending me candid pics and knowing my dogs were being genuinely cared for in my absence made my short trip not feel so long!!
Hayleigh is extremely responsible, quick to communicate, leaves my house immaculate and takes amazing care of my 2 dogs. They love spending time with her playing outside, which is evident from the pictures she sends and their happy tails when I get home. Highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Union Mill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Union Mill on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,806 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Union Mill. 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 Mill 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 Mill 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 Mill 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 Mill. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
