About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets including dogs, cats, and birds. While it has been quite a few years, I was a veterinary technician in high school and college. I love all animals and feel comfortable around dogs of all sizes. I am a second grade teacher looking to share my love of animals while earning extra income during the summer. I am a second-grade teacher with two high school children. I can be available most days during the summer due to my career. I am also available most afternoons/evenings during the school year. I will ensure any specific instructions are followed with care and accuracy and make your pet feel comfortable and loved. I can support the needs of both active and relaxed dogs, and love to provide a cozy lap and/or be a throwing companion for your furry family member.

About: I've grown up around pets my whole life, so caring for animals has always felt natural to me. I also volunteered at a cat habitat, where I helped clean, care for cats of all ages, support adoptions, and keep the space safe and comfortable. I'm patient, reliable, and really understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I also have close family members who work in grooming, so l've learned a lot from being around that environment. I'll treat your pets with the same care and attention I'd want for my own. I’m free all day! I have no other commitments. I am available and ready to begin, anytime and any day. I’m available as soon as 8am and as late as 10pm, and can do overnights! When caring for pets in a client's home, I try to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I'll follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, litter cleaning, playtime, medications if needed, and any house rules. I'm respectful of your space and understand how important it is to trust someone in your home. I'll keep things clean, pay attention to your pet's behavior, and send updates and photos so you know they're safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.

About: I grew up with dogs. I had a Great Dane that lived to be 12. I currently have a mini bernedoodle that is almost 5 years old. I also have a bunny. I currently work full-time and am available on Saturday and Sunday for boarding and dog walking. From late June through August, my schedule is more flexible. I will be available daily. I live in a quiet neighborhood in a cul-de-sac with a fenced-in yard. I have a very friendly mini Bernedoodle. I love dogs that play and lazy dogs that just like to chill.

Kelsey is wonderful. We knew Kelsey was a good match BUT we were 100% in when our two dogs were instantly relaxed with her . This is not the case more often than not for our Chi mix . Kelsey provides updates when she arrives and based on pictures she sends Milo and Lili are on totally board with their new friend. Even with current higher than normal temps, she is aware of the heat , pavement temp and keeping Lili and Milo in the shade so they do not overheat. Thank you Kelsey! This has been a huge help to us and we appreciate you taking good care of our furbabies. PS our cat, Waffles, seems to be passing on his overly rambunctious love to Kelsey also!!

About: Your custom care is here. I’ve taken care of German Shepherds and small teacup poodles. Let me know what you need and I will do my best! I’m a full-time teacher so I get out of school at four so I can walk your dog then. I work in Hartford so I can also let your fur baby out on my break. Let me know if you need me watch or sit any of your pets over the weekend. Blessings! I live in a large condo association with lots of paved areas to walk. Some elevation and other friendly dogs around here. There’s a large vacant parking lot if they want to throw a ball or frisbee. There is a trail nearby if they want to walk in the woods or on rocks and dirt.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was a child, always surrounded by family dogs and cats. Over the past 20+ years, I’ve gained hands-on experience raising my own pets as well as caring for pets belonging to neighbors, friends, and family. From playful puppies to senior cats, I provide loving, dependable care that helps every pet feel safe and comfortable. I’m extremely flexible and available most days. I can easily adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs and routine, whether that’s walks, drop-ins, or extended care. I provide a calm, safe environment with consistent routines. Pets in my care get exercise, affection, and close attention. I’m comfortable with crates if needed, medication reminders, and tailoring care to each pet’s personality.

About: Hi Pet Parents! I’m a teacher and #dogmom to a cuddly rescue chihuahua mix, looking to pet sit part time in our community. I grew up with cats and dogs and have many years of experience caring for them. I work as a teacher part time and am looking to round out my weeks caring for fur babies. I have more availability in the summer. I do have a fenced in yard if your dog gets along with other dogs. My dog is about 13 lbs. and loves other dogs once she gets to know them.

Nataliia is wonderful with our pup! She always updates us on how she’s doing, sends pics and we never worry about the wonderful care she is getting! Natalia feeds, changes water, walks and plays with our girl and we appreciate her so much. She even lets us know our kitties are being good while a friend is stopping in for them. We highly recommend Natalia to all pet owners who need peace of mind for their fur babies.

Last minute dog care and she was wonderful! She even helped pick up some items that fell outside the house due to a storm while we were away. Plus she communicated anything that she had concerns about our house we were out of town. Very detailed reports and cute pictures of our doggie :) 100% recommend and definitely use her again!

10/10!! Ally took the time to come meet my pup Jax prior to her first visit so we made sure he and she were comfortable! She takes him on adventures to different parks and bodies of water so he can let his energy out while his momma works! And she is always sure to send pictures, videos, and all updates! Happy pup, happy life!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Unionville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Unionville on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 2,581 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Unionville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Unionville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

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

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.

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.
