“I would definitely have Lihuan take care of my shiba again next time! She took great care of her, consistently provided updates throughout the day and everyday! I felt at ease and grateful!”
“We and our pup Butter had the most amazing experience with Janine. Janine was referred to us by a friend and I am so happy she did because finding a good Rover pet sitter is so hard. We are very happy with Janine. She was gentle with our dog, had the first meet and greet to make sure both us and she was comfortable with the arrangement. She sends regular updates about our dog and his day to day activities which is fun to read. Also she takes the most prettiest pics of dogs 🐶 She was very responsive to my texts during the boarding period which is always a relief for anxious dog moms like me. Our pup seemed very happy during the entire stay with Janine. We would definitely recommend her to our other dog friends.”
“Jianli & Wiena took very good care of our dog. They were very caring and took care of all her needs and send us lots of photos and videos with regular updates. We highly recommend him & will definitely use them again.”
“Judi has been fantastic with our two boxer girls! We’ve used her services multiple times and always feel confident that they’re in great hands. She provides frequent updates, is highly responsive, and takes wonderful care of them. We truly appreciate her and highly recommend her services. Thank you, Judi!.”
“Marina and Anwar are definitely rock stars. They took wonderful care of our Joey and Kenneth. Throughout the day they would send me pictures and videos. They took them on walls throughout the day and played with them. I can tell they love dogs. When we did the meet and greet Joey and Kenneth went right up to them wagging their tails. When I picked them up I said we found a new sitter for our boys when the wife and I go out of town again. Also after I picked up Kenneth and Joey they were so exhausted and wanted to sleep the rest of the day and that tells me they both had a lot of fun. I highly recommend Marina and Anwar.”
“Pamela took such good care of my furbaby. Constant updates on how she was doing and made sure to upkeep routine and care. Definitely kept my furbaby busy and entertained throughout her stay. Pamela was also accommodating when updating her of my situation. Definitely recommend her for pet sitting”
“Natasha was great. Mowgli was well cared for and happy when we picked him up. They sent me pictures everyday and made sure to keep him on his normal routine. Would definitely book with Natasha again!”
“Lavanya is very good with dogs, and took great care of our dog. She shared multiple updates with photos and videos throughout the stay. She far exceeded our expectations, moving her schedule around to make sure that our dog got enough playtime with her dog. Would certainly go back.”
“Sriram is a fantastic sitter! I’ve had mixed luck in the past, but he exceeded all expectations. My dog was treated like family, enjoying tons of walks and play in a safe, spotless home. Sriram’s constant updates and photos gave me total peace of mind. I picked up a happy, relaxed pup who clearly enjoyed his 'vacation’ lol. We will absolutely be booking with Sriram and his awesome family again!”
“Awesome experience with Melody! She sent daily updates with pictures, and was very welcoming and sweet with Mochi. Highly recommended, and will definitely book again! Mochi was sad to leave. He was spoiled there.”
“Thanks for taking excellent care of my dog, Friday while he was recovering from a leg injury. I loved all the pictures and updates. You were great at communicating and following all my extensive instructions 😅 and also were super flexible and helpful during a stressful period. You also really cared about my dog's well being, taking him on sniffing walks and car rides and playing games with him to keep him entertained. I would 100% recommend you both to other dog parents! Thank you!”
“Pratima is an awesome sitter! My two Labradors stayed with her over the long weekend and I got daily updates with pictures. She is very caring and communication was very easy with her. My pups had a great time and we will be back soon. I highly recommend Pratima for anyone looking for a friendly and caring sitter :) :)”
“We can’t thank Jasmine enough for the incredible care she gave our cat, Leo, while we were away. She went above and beyond—sending thoughtful updates, giving plenty of affection, and making sure every detail was taken care of. We came home to a very content cat, and that peace of mind is priceless. We wholeheartedly recommend Jasmine to anyone looking for a truly caring sitter. We will definitely call Jasmine the next time we’re out of town to take care of our Leo.”
“Chen is a great host! Communicative and flexible. Most of all, it’s clear our 8 y/o pittie Hazel enjoys staying with her. She always gets plenty of exercise and appears happy in the many photos we receive (thanks!!) and when we pick her up.”
“Our 4 kitten have stayed at Mary’s place a few times, as usual she pay lots of care to them, not only feeding but also spent good amount of time with them. From the daily photos and videos we can see they basically treated it as home 🤣 Having Mary taking care of our cats was the only way we could enjoy our trips.”
“Thank you Nancy and Touc for giving us a great first experience on Rover! They gave us peace of mind while we were away and were incredibly communicative. Would highly recommend and will book them again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Union City
Judi took care of Andy and Cody very well. It’s Cody’s first time for boarding. He is a fearful dog. Judi was very much patience in caring our dogs. Sent multiple pictures and videos of them which gave us a great relief. Definitely, would recommend her and book again with her.
We are grateful for the care Natasha and Diana provided for our pets. They were friendly, experienced and communicated well.We boarded our cat and dog for 3 weeks, and in that time we got daily updates and pictures of them, so we felt reassured and at ease during our trip. I would definitely recommend Natasha and Diana as sitters.
Sheru stayed overnight at Lavanya’s and came home super happy, energetic, and completely himself. It was clear that he had a good night’s sleep and plenty of rest, as he settled right back into his usual routine after coming home. I’m really happy with the care, love, and attention Lavanya provided. She kept me updated with timely messages and followed all of Sheru’s care instructions thoroughly. I truly appreciate the wonderful care she gave him and would definitely recommend her to other pet parents!
Pam took great care of my puppy. She sent daily pictures & videos, taught him some new tricks, bathed him, & ensured he was cared for. I left my puppy with her for 1 week & he came back in tip top shape. Thanks so much Pam for all that you did to care for my puppy. I def will be booking again.
Jianli and his wife are super pleasant and attentive. We got many pictures and updates while we were away. They asked thoughtful questions about her particular needs and were sure to address them. They were also very flexible with us (and Iggy) when needed. Would recommend!
Melody did another great job taking care of Jarvis! This was our 3rd booking with her, and she continues to be so reliable and attentive. She sent plenty of pictures and kept a daily schedule of his meals, medication, potty breaks, and activities. It gives me a lot of peace of mind knowing Jarvis is in such good hands. We’ll definitely be booking with Melody again!
Boarding our dog with Pallavi was a great experience. She took excellent care of him and was very attentive to his needs. Her communication was clear and consistent, with regular updates that made the whole process stress-free for us. We’d happily recommend her and would board with her again.
Kseniia and her husband were absolutely wonderful with my dog, Lynn, over a 4 night stay! This was my first time leaving Lynn with a sitter, so I was a little nervous, but Kseniia made the whole experience incredibly easy and reassuring. She sent me regular photos, videos, and updates, and it was clear that Lynn was happy, relaxed, and very well cared for! I felt completely comfortable knowing Lynn was in such good hands and in such a lovely home. When I came to pick Lynn up, she was lying on her back getting belly rubs! I would absolutely book with Kseniia again and highly recommend her!
We had such a great experience with Sriram watching Yogi! He sent us so many pictures and regular updates about how Yogi was doing, which really helped us feel at ease while we were away. Yogi has a sensitive stomach and very strict feeding instructions, and Sriram reassured me that he fully understood and would follow everything carefully. That gave me so much relief and allowed me to enjoy our vacation without worrying. Yogi was happy and well cared for, and we would absolutely book with Sriram again!
Divya and Shane were amazing with Baxter and their dog Yukon is a really sweet dog too. Divya and Shane were flexible and accommodating with the pickup and dropoff times. They took good care of Baxter, enquired about his schedule and made sure Baxter is comfortable in their home. Yukon tried to get Baxter to play but Baxter, being older now, did not want to play and Yukon was content with being chill and giving him space. Baxter usually is not comfortable in other’s homes but he had a good time with Divya and Shane. Would highly recommend Divya and Shane and will be definitely be leaving Baxter with them again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Union City on Rover is $60.84 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 7,079 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Union City. 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.
92% of Union City 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 City 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 City 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 City.
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 City 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 CA 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.
