“As always had another great experience with Lexus dog sitting our senior dog. Can’t say enough positive things about her professionalism and attention to detail.”
“Autumn was Fabulous!! She is friendly, a great communicater, and sent me pictures throughout her time in my house. I have 3 goldendoodles and they gave her a 5 out of 5 review. Just watching my girls interact with her gave me such peace. The pictures captured their personalities and their smiles. I highly recommend Autumn for your pets needs.”
“Gabriela took great care of our two dogs Cody and Bell. She fed and walked them according to their schedule. She played with them cuddled with them and even allowed them to share the bed with her. Gabriela sent us daily pictures of the dogs activities while we were away which did wonders for our separation anxiety. Our house was just as we left it very neat and orderly.”
“Nehaeh was great She was a considerate houseguest and very attentive to our senior dog it was a relief to know that he did not get stressed with our leaving and she got him to play which he usually doesn’t !”
“Kaitlyn was so good with my Penny. Super professional and communicative, and she sent lots of pictures. She clearly loves what she does - it really comes through. Thanks for taking such great care of Penny and my house while I was gone.”
“This was the first time we used rover for our dog and we were very impressed how well Carla took care of Spooky for 3 days she stayed with him and gave him all his proper pills, feed him, walked him, and slept over with him. I would highly recommend Carla! Thanks again!”
“So incredibly friendly and helpful! Marina stayed for a few hours with our extremely separation-anxious dog in our new apartment so we could go get some furniture. It felt like a silly request, but just having her there with Mable made a world of difference and by the time Marina left, Mable was sad to see her go. Marina sent us multiple adorable pictures of our dog while we were out and updated us regularly on what was going on, which was really nice for us as first-time users of any dog-sitting service. She was also extremely thorough in making sure she knew everything our dog needed before we left. We'll definitely be asking her back, thanks so much for everything!”
“Kiri house sat for us for over 2 weeks and did a wonderful job with our shy, older dog. She gave him morning meds, took him on daily walks and really bonded with him. We are so appreciative of her gentle and patient nature and wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”
“I can’t recommend Peter enough! Leaving your home and fur babies with someone you don’t know is never easy but Peter exceeded every expectation. My dogs were clearly happy, relaxed, and loved while I was away. It was obvious Peter gave them plenty of attention and care, treating them like his own. And my house was left spotless! Finding someone as reliable, respectful, and genuinely caring as Peter is rare. We’re already booked again 🫶🏼”
“Mya took great care of my senior dog. She spent a lot of time with him and he warmed up to her pretty fast. He had plenty of walks and was able to lounge outside a lot. The communication was excellent. I would highly recommend Mya.”
“Hannah did an amazing job. I booked her for a long weekend to watch my two high engery dogs. She took them on runs and to the local dog park to get some much needed exercise. She was able to administer pills to one of my pups with no problems. During my time away my pesky pups escaped, but not to worry, Hannah dropped everything and made sure of their sade return.”
“Elba is the absolute best pet sitter!!!! We went away for vacation and needed around the clock care. Elba was very thorough with the instructions and information we gave her. She took care of our animals as if they were her own. She gave updates every single day and sent the best pictures. Our animals were so happy and loved while we were away. And Elba even went above and beyond when we had a tree branch from a neighboring yard fall during a storm and damage our fence. She kept me notified and sent pictures. I would absolutely recommend Elba for anyone who is looking for a trustworthy person to care for your pets! We will most definitely be using Elba in the future to take care of our fur babies!!!!!!!”
About: I have been a huge animal lover and caretaker ever since I was a child. I have a multitude of experiences with animals from all walks of life through my own personal pets and volunteering experiences with local rescues. I am currently a foster for a local rescue (Husky Haven) and I have experience with dogs of all ages (from puppy to senior) and have worked on house-training, proper leash manners, crate-training, socializing, and loving the dogs to get them adopted into their forever home. As someone who owns two dogs, I know it can be stressful finding someone to take care of your furry family members. I will do everything I can to give your pets the best care and communicate with you/send loads of pictures so you have an ease of mind! I have a job where I always work evenings, so I am free every day of the week from the morning to the afternoon (6 am-3pm). I also have weekend availability! If you have a fenced-in yard, I will monitor your dog make sure your dog does not escape or get into anything that would harm them. If you do not have a fence, I will make sure the dog is in a secure environment at all times and be careful to harness and leash them before taking them out.
About: Hi there! I’m Layla — a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. From dogs and cats to my own rabbit, I’ve been the go-to sitter for family and friends for as long as I can remember. Animals tend to feel comfortable around me — even the shy or skittish ones — and I take pride in creating a calm, caring environment where they feel safe and loved. I’ve worked with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies and sweet senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or cuddle sessions on the couch, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’d love to give your furry friend the same care and attention — and keep you updated with cute pics along the way! I work full-time during the day, but I have full availability on weeknights for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. I'm happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they’re getting plenty of love and attention while you're away! I offer in-home care only, so I’ll be caring for your pet in the comfort of their own home. I always follow your specific instructions to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or meds, I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and totally at ease while you're away. I treat your home with the same respect I’d want for mine — clean, calm, and secure.
About: I have 3 cats. I love them all. One is a senior with the energy of a teen. One is reserved but playful. The last one is very selective with how she likes to receive attention and she gets all the love as such. They all get my attention and care in their unique ways, and I would be doing the same with your pets. I may be a cat person, but I love dogs too. Your dogs will be getting some extra attention and loving from me. Aside from just walking your dogs, we could go for a quick run, play some tug of war, whatever toys you have available. Now cats, I love playing with cats, snuggling with cats, and just occupying the same room as cats. Whatever your cats need, I'm just there to make sure they are okay and that they don't get too lonely while you're gone. I will be taking pictures of your pets and sending them to you so you know they are being taken care of or just to remind you how cute they are. Can also watch over cats colonies while you're gone. At the moment, I am very flexible. I am free most of the week for most of the day. I limit any visits between 10 am and 8 pm. I will be starting with soon, and I'll have to limit myself to evenings. For dogs, if you have any toys they like to play with, I will play with them using those toys. I will go on walks with them to make sure their business gets done. If they have been naughty and made a mess, I will tidy things back up for you with your permission. For cats, I bring my own toys if needed to play cats. Cats I've watched over loved the rainbow string wand and the mini plush soccer balls I bought for my own cats. I like to brush cats and help them de-shed. I regularly clean out the litter box and use a deodorizer on both the remaining litter and litter dumped if left in the trash bag. Essentially how I treat my cats, I would treat yours with the understanding that I am a stranger in their home.
“Alexis is fantastic. We have booked with her before to watch our pup and we always feel at ease. She respects and follows rules and instructions for our puppy down to the detail. Our puppy had a great day with her and was in good hands! Will be booking again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Union Park
Autumn was Fabulous!! She is friendly, a great communicater, and sent me pictures throughout her time in my house. I have 3 goldendoodles and they gave her a 5 out of 5 review. Just watching my girls interact with her gave me such peace. The pictures captured their personalities and their smiles. I highly recommend Autumn for your pets needs.
Alison was absolutely wonderful! From the moment we met her, we felt confident our pets were in great hands. She took the time to ask thoughtful, detailed questions to make sure she understood their routines and personalities, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She sent plenty of photos and updates throughout the weekend, and it was clear our pets were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. They absolutely loved her! It’s such a relief to find someone who is so reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Alison again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter.
Glacie is the absolute best. She has watched our girls three times (including 2 of which have been with a brand new puppy!). She is so attentive, responsive, and takes great care of them. It is so amazing to be able to be away from the house knowing my girls are in good hands. She’s the best!
She did an amazing job watching my dog and followed everything exactly how I asked. I checked in a lot while I was away and she was always super responsive and reassuring, which made me feel so much better. I could tell she really cared and kept me updated, and I felt comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands. I’d definitely book with her again and highly recommend her!
Bailey was great! Highly recommend. Super comfortable with dogs and followed all instructions left. Sent tons of photos everyday and always communicated. Very professional and friendly. She stayed in our home while we were away for 3 nights. Could not have asked for a better experience.
Chris was an awesome dog sitter for our two pups while we were out of town. He kept us updated throughout the day and showed exceptional care for them both and asked questions when needed. He went the extra mile and took them out to play, go on car rides, and walk in the park. Great experience; we will definitely be contacting Chris for future care.
Ashley was such a blessing to have keep my puppies company while I was out of town. She sent daily updates, kept me in the loop, and it was obvious my pups were very loved. Ashley was able to ensure their feeding plans were followed in the same way they are when I’m home. I was thankful she was willing to stay at my house where they are comfortable. She also left my house in better shape than when I left!! She was respectful of my home/belongings and loved my dogs as if they were her own. I can’t say enough good things about Ashley, I look forward to working with her again next time I leave town!!
Gabriella was absolutely amazing, and we feel so lucky to have found her! From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative and thoughtful. We did a meet-and-greet beforehand, which made us feel so comfortable, and both Jeremy and Milly loved her right away. While we were away for a wedding in Miami, Gabriella went above and beyond. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind, and she really stuck to their routines and schedules. Jeremy and Milly are used to having someone around most of the time since my husband works from home, and Gabriella made sure they had that same level of attention and care. She stayed with them 24/7, took Jeremy on daily walks, and spent time outside with him while he sunbathed. It was so clear that they were both spoiled, loved, and incredibly well taken care of. She took care of them like they were her own. She also took great care of our home while we were away. We came back to everything clean, organized, and just as we left it, which made returning home even more stress-free. Gabriella was incredibly considerate and even stayed with them until she knew we were safely back home, which meant so much to us. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, communicative, and will treat your pets (and your home!) like her own, Gabriella is it. We will absolutely be booking with her again! 🐾💛
Lilli was really good with our fur babies, she kept us updated with pictures and communicated well with us throughout our time away. When we returned we could tell that both kitty and pup were well taken care of and no signs of stress.. they seemed more loving and attentive. Lilli is kind, considerate and respected our home like it was hers. Thank you Lilli for taking such good care of our babies!! If we had to we good definitely have her fur baby and house sitting again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Union Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Union Park on Rover is $43.29 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,173 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Union Park. 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 Park 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 Park 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 Park 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
