“Ekaterina took the best care of our dog, Charlie. She communicated with us daily, keeping us in touch with our Charlie’s day. Charlie looked so happy and comfortable which made us even happier and more comfortable. We’re grateful that we found someone who can give us peace of mind when we go away and have to leave Charlie behind. We will definitely look for Ekaterina again for any future stays.”
“Veronica looked after our 2 cats very well. She kept me updated on their day-to-day activities and eating habits. Our cats got along very well with her cats as well. Highly recommend!”
“Jenny was great with our dig, Riley. She asked lots of smart questions to be sure Riley was getting the best care and staying on his routine. She sent photos and was very accommodating when out flight delay resulted in a later than expected pick up. I highly recommend Jenny and will certainly call on her again.”
About: 🐾 More Than a Pet Sitter—A Trusted Companion for Your Furry Family! 🐾 Your pets deserve more than just someone to feed them—they deserve love, patience, and personalized care while you’re away. As a dedicated pet caregiver, I treat every pet like they’re my own, providing plenty of affection, playtime, exercise, and companionship to keep them happy, comfortable, and stress-free. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, administering medication, or simply giving them the attention they crave, you can have peace of mind knowing your beloved companion is in caring and reliable hands. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels secure until you’re back home. Because pets aren’t just animals—they’re family, and family deserves the very best care. ❤️🐶🐱 As a teacher, my daily schedule has helped me develop strong time management, patience, and reliability—all qualities that make me an excellent pet caregiver. My workday follows a consistent routine, allowing me to provide dependable pet care before and after school, as well as on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I enjoy spending my free time caring for animals by taking them on walks, engaging them in playtime, and making sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and companionship. During the summer and other school vacations, I have even greater flexibility to provide extended care, overnight stays, or multiple daily visits. Being a teacher has also strengthened my ability to stay calm, follow detailed instructions, and recognize individual needs, which helps me provide personalized care for every pet. Whether it’s maintaining feeding schedules, administering medication, or simply making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away, you can count on me to provide reliable and compassionate care every time. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I strive to maintain their normal routine to help them feel relaxed and secure. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any special care requests you provide. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and supervision. I make sure they have access to fresh water, a safe space to rest, and opportunities for exercise and mental stimulation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your home as if it were my own. I keep the space clean, secure, and follow any household rules or instructions. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and cared for, while giving pet parents confidence that their furry family member is in trustworthy and dependable hands.
About: I’ve been providing pet care for years and have experience with dogs, cats, puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs. I also have over 100 five-star testimonials from past clients on another platform that I’m happy to share upon request. I’m experienced in administering medications, including oral medications and injections such as insulin, and I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions to keep pets happy and healthy. I work from home, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and one-on-one care throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give pet parents complete peace of mind, knowing their furry family member is being cared for as if they were my own. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of love. I’m very active and enjoy long walks, outdoor time, and keeping dogs mentally and physically engaged. I can easily adapt to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and at home while you’re away. I’m up early and very active throughout my day. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my highest priorities. After years of providing pet boarding, I’ve intentionally adapted my home to create a safe environment for visiting pets. I have secure locking pet gates to safely block access to stairways when needed, non-slip stair grips to help prevent slips and falls, and indoor security cameras that allow me to monitor pets and review any unexpected situations if necessary. Because I work from home, pets receive constant supervision, individualized attention, and very little time alone. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions, to help them feel comfortable and at ease. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving attentive, personalized care.
“At the last minute we needed someone to watch our furbaby. I heard abt Rover and I came across Javier’s profile. I was impressed with the reviews and his overall profile.We had a meet and greet and Button showed immediate interest. Javier’s love and care for Button exceeded every expectation. He showered us with photos and videos, gave us recommendations and great observations of Button. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND JAVIER!! I live on Staten Island and have NO PROBLEMS paying the toll and potential traffic to have someone like Javier watch Button. Book him, you will not regret the experience!”
“This is Basil’s second time staying with Stacia. She is an excellent host/sitter. I was kept informed with pictures of Basil’s stay. From the pictures I could tell Basil was having a great time. Stacia even gave Basil and myself a gift at the end of his stay. Super Sweet! Thank you again, Stacia for taking excellent care of my fur-son!”
“Becky and family were such great pet sitters! They sent so many photos of my dog and I can tell from the photos that Juniper was in good hands. Excellent communicators. I would recommend them to anyone that wants their dog to feel comfortable while you are away.”
“Shaun was so great with Scout! Sent helpful updates and Scout seemed so happy when I picked her up after four nights away. Would definitely recommend and I know Scout can’t wait to go back.”
“I had an amazing experience with Akshay. He took excellent care of my dog, Bagheera, and treated him like family from day one. Akshay made sure Bagheera got his daily walks, meals right on time, and plenty of playtime. I really appreciated how he asked questions in the beginning whenever needed—showing how responsible and attentive he is. He also sent daily updates, photos, and little notes about Bagheera’s mood and activities, which kept me completely relaxed while I was away. Another lovely part was Akshay’s dog, Sirius. Bagheera and Sirius became instant buddies! They played, relaxed, explored together, and honestly, it feels like Bagheera came back home with a new brother. Overall, Akshay is reliable, caring, and genuinely passionate about animals. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful and trustworthy Person. Your pet will be in wonderful hands!”
“Our Winston had a great day with Marlene! She was very attentive to him and had excellent communication before and during his stay. We are looking forward to having Winston stay with her again in the future!”
“Milena was amazing I felt so comfortable leaving my sick girl with her. She was careful to write down all medication instructions (4 different medications taken 2 or 3 times a day) She was also kind to me - I had never left my dog with a stranger let alone when she was sick. I am sooo grateful Milena helped me. She sent pictures and told me how everything was going. I have already asked her to be my go to when I must leave my dog for a few days. She is awesome … so loving and caring I felt soooo lucky to have happened upon a kind soul to care for my helpless sick dog while I had to be away. I highly recommend her and am soo grateful to have met her on this app - Milena thank you for your help.”

Tiara was amazing with Bucket while we were traveling! She sent daily updates and pictures, which I really appreciated and looked forward to every day. Bucket needed a little time to settle in, but Tiara made a few thoughtful accommodations for him and he became so comfortable there. When I picked him up, he seemed happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. The sweetest touch was the goodie bag Tiara sent Bucket home with, full of fun toys, treats, and even custom accessories. Such a thoughtful surprise! Thank you, Tiara, for taking such good care of my big baby. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive sitter.
Jordy T. took excellent care of my dog, Beanz! From the moment I booked, Jordy was responsive, communicative, and kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. Beanz looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I was so impressed with the experience that I’m already rebooking with Jordy again this weekend! I highly recommend Jordy to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter.
Javier took exceptional care of my fur baby and went above and beyond to make both of us feel comfortable from the very beginning. It was clear that she was well cared for, loved, and happy while I was away. I truly appreciated the updates, kindness, and professionalism. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
Our pups had a great time with Conner! We received frequent photos and videos throughout their stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was wonderful to see the girls getting plenty of playtime with the other dogs staying there—they looked like they were having a blast! Conner was excellent with communication and kept us updated the entire time. It was obvious from the videos that YoYo and Zoe were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. He even made sure Zoe got her medication, which we really appreciated. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Conner again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!
Brianna was absolutely fantastic with our poodle, Pepper, during his 7 day stay! She went above and beyond to care for him, keeping us constantly updated on his routine, eating habits, playtime, and walks. We loved receiving all the photos which was such a thoughtful touch that really put us at ease. It was clear Pepper had a wonderful time with her and her pup on his Puppy Vaca, and we could tell he felt happy and comfortable. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Brianna again!
I appreciate Miss Natalie so much. Such a caring and loving dog sitter. She kept me updated and kept me at ease while I was 3,000 miles away. For my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn't really know,it felt like I was dropping my child off to school for the first day, lol! The good thing about it all as well, is that he came home and acted his regular normal self, there was no change in Behavior! That's how I know that he was comfortable being there and I will definitely use her again!
Griffey seemed so comfortable and happy in his first stay with Tynesha and family! This was his first stay with anybody outside of our family, and we immediately knew he was in great hands from the initial meeting. The regular updates and photos kept us reassured that he was having a great time. We will absolutely be coming back to Tynesha for any future dog sitting needs!
We had a wonderful experience! They provided tons of updates and photos throughout the stay, which gave us total peace of mind. Simba felt completely safe and comfortable, and he absolutely loved having their pet dog Sirius as a companion to play with. When we picked him up, he was so happy and relaxed. We couldn't have asked for better care!
Highly Highly Recommended very professional, our dogs had a great time they updated us everyday with very pictures, they have a big backyard so the pups can run and roam freely It was the first time letting someone sit our dogs and they made the experience great we had no issues we will use them in the future thank you again.
Veronica is absolutely incredible! She took such wonderful care of Tasha and truly went above and beyond. When Tasha was feeling a bit down and lost her appetite, Veronica didn't just ignore it—she actually went out and bought special food to encourage her to eat and spent extra time cheering her up. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the happiness and health of the pups she watches. Tasha came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend Veronica to anyone!
My little Muffin had a blast. I booked with Julhiffer again and while I was on vacation she always kept me updated with the cutest videos and pics of my dog having a ball. She creates such a warm and animal friendly atmosphere! She is amazing ! Thank you again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Union on Rover is $52.82 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 Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 13,844 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Union. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Union sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Union landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
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.
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 NJ 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.
