“Sheila was very accommodating! I had a short-notice request and she was flexible with her schedule allowing us to enjoy our time away. She sent us updates of our fur baby enjoying himself. Thank you so much!”
“Elisabeth took fantastic care of our pup and was able to accomodate us on short notice. She communicated well and sent us lots of pictures and updates of our dog which were much appreciated!”
“I don’t ever need to look for another sitter again after finding Tiffiny and her family. She was amazing for the entire time my boy stayed with her. She was above and beyond and always made sure I was up to date and had pictures and videos everyday. Book with her if you care about your pets safety because they will be taken very great care of.”
“Taylor & Sam were amazing! Communicative, treated the dogs so well. Daily updates & lots of exercise. Also flexible because of my hectic schedule. I haven’t felt this comfortable with someone watching my dogs for awhile. Great job!”
“Dawn made me feel very comfortable leaving our pup with her for the week. She is very personable and obviously a pet person. She sent photos and communication. I could tell when we picked him up he was happy and not nervous. I feel like he really enjoyed his time with Dawn. We will definitely utilize her as a second family for Paco in the future. thanks Dawn!”
“I can’t express what a great experience we have had with our Rover sitter Madhu and Bahrath. This is our first experience placing a dog with Rover and we have been beyond pleased and overwhelmed with how well it has gone. We were gone 15 days and we received updates and photos everyday. I never thought I could find someone to house sit our dog and truly know we didn’t have to worry about him in anyway. (Well one worry that he actually would not want to come home!) They really seemed to love him like he was their own, no better compliment than that!”
“Lea and Brandon were wonderful! They took great care of our doggos. She kept us up to date with pictures each day of the dogs all having a blast! We look forward to future visits! Highly recommend for anyone in need of a pet sitter.”
“Melissa and family kept us constantly updated with our pup during her stay and were incredibly understanding when our flight was delayed and pivoted to doing a drop off. We cannot thank them enough for their care of her.”
“Kirsten took AMAZING care of my baby 🥹❤️ I have horrible anxiety over leaving my dog on vacation..Kirsten was so patient and attentive and eased all my worries. 100% recommend her ❤️”
“Ashley was great for our dogs! We were in a pinch and needed someone within a few days to watch them for the weekend and Ashley was very responsive and cooperative. The dogs loved their stay at her place and were well taken care of! Ashley's communication was great with how the dogs were doing as well. Would definitely recommend!”
“Lucy had a great stay with Carly and Doug. We got several messages and pictures during our trip, and she seemed to get along very well with them and their dog. Lots of exercise and attention. We'll definitely contact them again the next time we're going out of town. Thanks so much!”
“Elizabeth was a really great host, she was extremely responsive and flexible with schedule which is always appreciated. She has two adorable resident dogs who got along great with my two pups. I would certainly have her host again, and recommended her.”
“Rachel and her family are amazing! So warm and friendly that I instantly connected with them and so did my male Maltese Mickey! Mickey is treated as a member of our family so when I look for a dog sitter, I want it to be a ‘ home away from home’ experience. I am so grateful to have found this with Rachel. Mickey has stayed with them twice already and we are sure to book again in the near future. I trust that Mickey is well taken care of and appreciate the picture updates I receive. Thanks So Much, Rachel!”
“Greg and family took care of Raven for 10 days while we were visiting our son's family in North Carolina. Everything went very well it seems and we are so pleased with the care and compassion that Greg and team put into their care for Raven. We received a picture each day which helped ease our sense of missing her. This is just the perfect place for her. We've already scheduled two more doggie day care sessions and truly appreciate working with them. Can't praise them enough as Raven is not the easiest dog to take care of.”
“Awesome....does more need to be said lol...always kept me updated and responded to my messages and my pup had a blast he got plenty of attention and lovins...he can't wait to go back ?”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 362 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Union. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
93% 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:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 MO 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.
