“Absolutely fantastic experience with Gabriela! This was our first time using Rover so we weren’t quite sure what to expect. She stayed at our house, sent regular pictures of our very happy dogs, and left the place spotless. 10/10 recommend.”
“Sonal was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly thorough and detailed, and warm & attentive to our babies. She kept us updated with photos and reports, and kept us at ease during our vacation. 10/10 will try to book again. :)”
“Lia was great- Super friendly, great communication, and punctual. I think she took good care of Apollo and was engaging and playful. Will definitely contact again for future needs!”
“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!”
“Wonderful house sitter & took terrific care of our cat Oscar. Deborah leapt in to help us on short notice when another Rover sitter bailed the night before she was due to start. My wife and I highly recommend Deborah and would be happy to use her again.”
“Bailey takes such good care of our pups, she is responsive, ensures all needs are met and we have never had any problems after multiple sits. We will definitely continue to have her sit in the future.”
“Peter was able to accommodate two last-minute bookings to watch my dog really early in the morning. I am extremely grateful! He was on time and communicative. I would have him watch my dogs again in the future.”
“I booked JaRavia at the last minute, and she was incredibly flexible with scheduling a meet-and-greet. During the boarding, she was patient and understanding with my shy dog, Bear, who can be a bit distant. She checked in frequently, and by the end of the visit, Bear had started to trust her. I highly recommend JaRavia for her kindness and love of animals!”
“Showed up on time, asked intelligent questions about our dog to make sure she had all the information necessary, and was pleasant and courteous. Our dog liked her immediately and was happy and relaxed when we came home. A very comforting feeling!”
About: I’ve taken care of family and roommate pets over the last year and a half. I have one pet of my own I have raised since a puppy. I am a compassionate and kind animal lover that enjoys providing pets with enriching experiences. I am a full-time graduate student, but have availability to take care of pets all day on Tuesdays, and Thursday- Sunday. I am flexible for daily and weekly pet routines. I provide fun and enriching experiences for my own dog, and family dogs I have watched. I am comfortable crating, feeding, and reinforcing basic training commands for pets. I love taking dogs on long walks to enrich their lives through smell and exercise.
“Nina was great with my pug, Daisy Mae. She made friends with her instantly! Nina not only took care of Daisy, but took her to a neighborhood coffee gathering so Daisy could play with her doggie friends. I appreciate Nina coming at such an early hour on a Saturday to pet sit. I would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Sara took amazing care of Prim. My dog had a vacation while I was away and it was very clear that she enjoyed herself. My dog is 14years old so she can't be easy at times but Sara had patience with her and took great care of her. Thank you.”
About: I've always owned pets, from fish and tadpoles as a toddler to my first ever baby: Kiki (western terrier mix). Today I care for my own pets (cats, reptiles, fish, birds, etc.) as fulfillment and, and for others (reptiles, amphibians, etc.) as a job. I believe my skillset reaches further than the average and covers larger ground basis. If you are in need of dog walker or a someone to nap with you cat, I can be there! Feel free to reach out and ask questions, I am new to this app and quite flexible with pricing, scheduling, etc. I work part-time so I have plenty of extra time, especially on weekends (no weekend shifts). My job ends at 4pm or 1pm, depending in the day, so I could have your dogs walked or cats fed before you get home! I also help out a breeder (reptiles) to care for his animals! I tend to spoil my cats a bit, they get treats, cat-wheel, cat-trees, and access to majority of the home. However when it comes to clients, I stay strict to the schedule/directions given to me. I always give the lil guys the best time I can!
About: Hello my name is Summer! I have always grown up with a dog in the house since I was young & currently have a 17yr old Shih Tzu and an 11yr old Tortoise Shell cat! I have experience with puppies & with older dogs, as well as hyper & calm ones! I am also able to administer oral or topical medication! I am very active myself so long walks or jogs comes easy for me! I currently have a very flexible schedule allowing me to work with different needs. I grew up in Orlando, so I am very familiar with many neighborhoods within it: such as downtown, college park, winter park, etc. I love animals, especially dogs & can not wait to meet & walk yours! Since I am currently doing free-lance work I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to work with the needs tailored to your specific wants! I enjoy bonding with animals and taking the time to create that trust, as well as give my undivided attention for the care of your pet. I am able to adjust to the environment and alter my care based on where you live. I am very acquainted with Orlando since I grew up and love to take dogs on walks that are suitable for their age and energy levels so whether that's a longer walk, short walk, or just a potty/hangout in the backyard. My 17yr old Shih Tzu loves to roam my yard and sunbathe, while my neighbors Golden Retriever who I care for loves to go on longer walks and play fetch. My cat is an indoor cat so I care for her by making sure she gets some playtime throughout the day and has a clean liter box to be used comfortably. I take direction well so whatever routine your pet is use to I am flexible to adjust to those.
“This is the second time that Mariia has watched my 2 cats. Everyday Mariia sent me pics and I know my cats were well cared for because they were super calm when I got home. Highly recommend!”
“Bella did an absolutely amazing job caring for my two little ones!! I was so nervous as multiple other sitters had cancelled last minute and we were getting very close to the trip - she was so fast and courteous in her messaging and came out to do a meet and greet the next evening. She stayed in my home and kept me fully looped in on how things were going with multiple pictures throughout the trip. My two smaller dogs can be picky with people but they both adored her from the jump and they got so much love while I was gone. My littles have never been so happy while I’ve been gone, and my house was cleaned up when I returned! I will absolutely be booking Bella in the future, her care for dogs in unmatched!”
About: I love caring for dogs of all sizes. I have experience with dogs as small as chihuahuas, and as big as Cane corso’s which is my current partner in crime! We love walks, going to the dog park, tug of war, and most importantly lots of snuggle time. I am a stay at home soon to be mom. I have lots of time to care for your furry family members. With my fenced in yard puppies are able to have full access to the bathroom and they will have full access to our furniture as well! Trust is the most important quality when it comes to caring for all animals. I thrive on building strong and reliable relationships with pets and owners. My main goal is to become your pets best friend!
“Sydney was great with our two pups while we were out of town. Our Malinois got sick just before we left and I let her know we gave him rice and he should be ok. She responded that even if he was still sick, she would take care of it. She let them out frequently and took great care of them! Will be utilizing Sydney again. Thank you! 😊”

Delicia was absolutely amazing with Leah. She followed directions on the care that was requested for my husky smd also was very good at sending pictures and keeping in touch I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs care for their pet will definitely rebook her over and over again
Lexus has once again been our saving grace. Our sweet Tory is still recovering from some mobility issues and we had a long work trip and weekend away, it was the first time we have left our girl for this long in ages, and knowing she was still recovering made leaving her all the more difficult, but Lexus is such a pro, Tory loves her, and she does such a great job taking care of her. Can't recommend her more, 10/10!
Nina was great with my pug, Daisy Mae. She made friends with her instantly! Nina not only took care of Daisy, but took her to a neighborhood coffee gathering so Daisy could play with her doggie friends. I appreciate Nina coming at such an early hour on a Saturday to pet sit. I would definitely recommend her to others.
We are thankful for the care Marin provided for both of our pups while we were away. We hired her for the weekend to house sit and take care of the dogs, and she did a great job! She kept us updated with photos and texts and even handled some unexpected, last minute medication needs for our older pup. We would highly recommend her and would definitely have her sit for us again!
Jin was great! Very good communication, sent photos/updates, left home in great shape, and most importantly took care of Duke well even with all his health issues! She was also so kind to be flexible with the schedule due to my son coming home earlier than expected. Appreciate it!
Cheyenne was awesome in our first attempt at pet sitting for our 10 year old pup. She consistently provided updates/videos/pictures while we were away, and even came over for a meet & greet ahead of us leaving town to get her dog and ours some time together. We will definitely be using her again in the future!
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.
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Union Park is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $59 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 3,122 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
