“Tammi was wonderful. First time my dog had been anywhere but home overnight. She sent updates and pictures to help ease my mind while I was away. Highly recommend her and will be using her services again in the near future.”
“This was our first time using Rover. We are so pleased with everything. The Stamms are so nice and took great care of Charlie. They sent us updates and pictures during his stay. He was very happy and relaxed when we picked him up! Usually we get the cold shoulder and ignored when we bored him… but not this time! We will definitely be booking with the Stamms in the future. It’s so refreshing and reassuring knowing our pet is safe and taken care of when we are out of town.”
“My cat was definitely a bit of a challenge during his stay, but Angel handled everything exceptionally well, with so much patience, care, and kindness. She was always responsive and quick to answer any questions, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. I’m very grateful for the care she gave my cat and would absolutely recommend her.”
“Hailey was great ! Booking was easy and I was able to ask the questions I needed before completing the booking ! While I was on my trip my 2 dogs were able to play in group play and I got updated and even pictures! Hailey assured me my babies were getting taken care of! I was running a few hours behind and she was able to make modifications to my trip which was very easy ! When I got my pups they had cute bandannas on and smelled like they got a bath which was a nice touch ! She told me her back ground with dogs and she forsure has lots of experience! This was my first time doing something like this but I’d book with her again !!”
“Eliza provided a great environment for Bruno to enjoy. Daily pictures and comment are very assuring. She's been very accommodating to our needs and preferences. Great experience!”
“Jamie watched Hampton for us while we went on vacation and of course she was amazing! She does a great job of updating with pictures and videos. I always feel at ease when leaving Hampton with her because she treats him like one of her own pups! He loves Jamie, and so do we! Thanks again!”
“I think my boy, Ody, is happier at Karen’s home than he is anywhere else! She spends so much time playing with him and giving him love that he is always excited to go back. Highly recommended!”
“I simply cannot recommend Karen enough for your dog's vacay. She is WONDERFUL! I recent had a tough situation with my dog, Dex, coming down with a horrendous allergic reaction just in time for a business trip i had to make. And Karen stepped in, took care of him for the whole week, sent me pictures of him recovering. She was so enthusiastic to take care of him and also administer his medication on my behalf. I could not have left him with anyone else other than Karen, not even my friends, with the confidence that he will be well looked after. When I came back to town, Dex was almost back to his best and was healthy and happy! Karen, you ROCK!”
“I wanted to sincerely thank Amanda and Donnie for the outstanding care you gave Blue during his stay with you :) Meeting them beforehand eased my worries, and their consistent updates and photos reassured me that Blue was happy and well looked after. As a Great Dane owner, finding trustworthy caregivers is invaluable, and their kindness and attention meant so much. I’ll definitely reach out to them again whenever Blue needs a place to stay. Thank you for making Blue feel so welcome.”
“Jill did an amazing job with my dog. She kept me updated and sent plenty of pictures. She took him on walks and kept him safe, and happy. I will definitely use her again.”
“I booked Josephine last minute (<24 hours) and she was fantastic! Enzo had an amazing time and she was super helpful and accommodating. Will definitely book again.”
“Elisheba and her family took Ember in and were very kind. Thank you for the hospitality and the great care at a last minute notice. Ember loved the yard and enjoyed having extra people to play with her, it takes a village!”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“Susan was great! I would definitely use her again in the future. My dog seemed happy to be there the whole time and enjoyed hanging out with her dog. She sent updates and pictures everyday and handled his fear of thunderstorms with no issues. Thanks again!”
“Danielle and her family were excellent caretakers of our three dogs. We received daily updates and pictures of them. The family is clearly a dog loving family. Will definitely use their services again.”
“Mary was great with our dog Pappy! This was our first time using her and we would use her again! She sent updates with pictures every day. Pappy had so much fun playing with her dog and other dogs she was watching.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Union
So long as you communicate well have a dog that needs a calm attentive caregiver or occasional zoomies when her kids can play outdoors too, the size dog that matches Angels ‘ little guy, you will not be disappointed! Our second go around together and she has been terrific for our little pup!
Wish I could give more than 5 stars! Kelly was wonderful and took such good care of my pup. Her dogs were so good with Lola and the rest of the family treated her like she was one of theirs. At times Lola can come back a bit on edge from missing family but this time she was so calm and happy. Will 100% be doing business with Kelly again.
I had a medical emergency while traveling out of state that put me in the hospital for three days. Jessica graciously increased the length of my dogs' stay by several days and even went out and bought them extra food! She went above and beyond in a way few people would, and I am very grateful for her kindness.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Union is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $42 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.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Union can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Union home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Union.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Union. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
You and your Union sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in KY ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
