“Fang took great care of our dog Aspen during her weekend stay. She is very responsive and flexible and sent many updates with pictures and videos during her stay. Thank you so much for taking great care of our pup! Will definitely book again in the future 😊”
“My 5-month-old puppy had a fantastic time during her stay. She made a lot of puppy friends, and Marina & Anwar treated her with excellent care, treating her like one of their own. As it was our first time leaving our puppy, they made us feel at ease by consistently sharing pictures and videos. I plan on booking with them again and would suggest their services to others.”
“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.”
“Kristal and Quinn were awesome with Maya and Evie. They continuously sent me updates and pics of the dogs and were always responsive when I had questions. I’d definitely book with them again.”
“Our 2nd time booking with Judi but was for a 2 week international trip. She sent us updates and photos often and would respond quickly. We trust Judi with Bailey fully.”
“I can’t say enough, Leo was lucky to spend time with Pratima. She sent me updates about him with pictures every day .she is very kind and have patience which made him feel at home at her place. I would highly recommend her.”
“We used Lihuan's service for the first time via Rover so there was the usual stranger anxiety. However, we were able to do a video call with her in advance which put us at ease. She was super responsive via the app before, during and after which was so critically important to us! We got a lot of timely pics and videos from her, easily available updates and alignment on feeding, bio-breaks and walking events through the app and extremely quick drop off and pickup timings. My dog came back looking normal and happy like we left her. I would use her service again and recommend her wholeheartedly.”
“I highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for a sitter. She is very kind and friendly with dogs. Our dog is anxious in new places. Lily clearly understood her nature and took excellent care of her. This is the second time leaving our dog with her and our dog loves Lily. She sends daily updates with pictures which helped us be at ease and enjoy our vacation. Lily is the best and is one of my go to dog sitters.”
“I had such a positive experience with [Sitter’s Name]! She was very easy to communicate with, always quick to respond, and super friendly. She sent me plenty of pictures and videos of my cat, Phoenix, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Phoenix can be nervous in new places and without me, but she really took the time to play with her and make her feel comfortable. I could tell Phoenix was well cared for and happy. I’m very grateful for her help and would definitely book with her again for cat sitting!”
“Very caring and attentive. Multiple pictures and short videos throughout the 2-week stay that were comforting to see. Speaking with Hong throughout the process was very easy and put my worries to rest. By pre-screening for temperament, Hong ensured that any other dogs being boarded (4 at most) would get along. I would recommend using Hong to anyone who wants a loving home and caring babysitter for their furry friend.”
“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.”
“Janine and her family were so welcoming and their home and yards are safe and awesome! I needed to board my Aussie a couple of days before needing to leave for a family emergency. Janine responded quickly and we scheduled a time for me and my dog to visit to make sure it’d be a good fit. She and her teen kids each took a dog and me and my dog for a walk around the block, then they opened up their home to me to show me how my dog would live when boarded. They showed me the white board where they write down the dogs diets and schedule and sent me updates and photos. I really appreciated that. It was a lot of effort on their part! My dog has a torn ACL and safety was a priority. Chase came back tired, happy, and healthy. I know he had a lot of fun. Thanks Janine, until next time!”
“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”
“Sriram & family are the best dog sitters we have hired on Rover. Got daily pictures of our dog with smiles on our dogs face. Our dog Dou Dou was completely relaxed and felt at home with Sriram. Highly recommend this dog sitter.”
About: Hi! I’m Divya, a big dog lover and the proud owner of a Husky named Yukon, so I’m very comfortable caring for active and energetic dogs. Huskies need a lot of exercise and attention, which has given me great experience with long walks, playtime, and understanding different dog personalities. Over the years my husband and I also watched many friends’ dogs for free while they were away for a day or a weekend. Because of that, I’ve had experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I live in the East Bay and love taking dogs on long walks around the neighborhood or to nearby parks so they can get plenty of exercise and stimulation. Whether your dog needs a walk, a quick bathroom break, or someone to spend time with them while you’re out of town, I’d be happy to help. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and always try to follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible. Just let me know what your dog likes, their habits, and anything I should be aware of so I can make sure they have a great experience. I’d love to help take care of your dog and give you peace of mind while you’re away! I’m currently working from home a few times a week and available for weekend boardings. My husband and I usually are home during the week. Weekends we usually spend a lot of time with our husky. He’s super friendly not overly talkative dog and loves all dogs of all sizes. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment and have flexibility to take in a crate or use my dogs large one. We take our dog out 4-5 times a day depending on the day.
“Sloane had a wonderful boarding experience with Sai and her fur baby. Sloane was well looked after , Sai kept us updated with videos and photos. We definitely recommend Sai as a pet sitter and will not hesitate to use her dog boarding services in future.”
“Su is very sweet, Winston was clearly comfortable immediately. Very communicative, lots of photos, and flexible on pickup and dropoff. Will definitely rebook next time we need at home stay for our pup!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Union City is $75

Melody and her mom took great care of my dogs! Maru & Chance enjoyed their first stay with them. Melody sent me a lot of pics every day and let me know how they’re doing, which reassured me that everything was going well, while I was out of town. Melody and her mom not only offer a nice environment but also pay attention to safety. Highly recommended!
Judi took great care of our dog, Tito, while we were away on vacation. She sent us daily photos and short updates on how he was doing, which we really appreciated. She was quick to respond to our messages and kept us informed throughout his stay. We appreciate the care she provided for Tito during our trip.
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
Absolutely amazing! They took wonderful care of our golden. They kept us updated with photos and messages throughout. Also they paid attention to even little details, including making sure our furry ate with the slow feeder( as recommended by his vet). We truly appreciate their care and would happily recommend them to anyone!
We boarded our 6 month puppy, Zoey, with Pallavi for 3 days and she went above and beyond in taking care of her. My puppy developed diarrhea on the first day and Pallavi fed her fresh chicken and rice, monitored her water intake and kept us posted with pictures on all little details throughout the day. Zoey also had a lot of fun with their dog, Luna and loved playing with her. Pallavi also took Zoey in their car on walks, played with her and even set up a ball pit which she loved. At the same time, Pallavi also ensured that Zoey gets enforced naps between play sessions and doesn’t overtire herself. If you are looking for a sitter who treats your dog as their own, stop looking any further. I’ll definitely board Zoey with her again.
Olga is absolutely wonderful! Hazel loved her and her family, she sent daily pictures and updates, and I had zero worries during the holiday knowing my furbaby was safe and well loved. Hazel had the best time playing with Biggie, coming home all tuckered out. It is clear how much Olga genuinely cares about animals, treating them as her own. We will definitely book again for future travel!
Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Messi while we were away on our work trip. ❤️ It means the world to us knowing he was surrounded by so much love, attention, and care. From the updates to the cuddles and everything in between, it was clear that he had an amazing time with you. I’m so grateful we found you. Knowing that Messi is in such good hands gives me so much peace of mind, and now I can travel in the future feeling completely relaxed, knowing my little child is being looked after with so much love. Thank you again for treating Messi like family. We truly appreciate you! ❤️❤️❤️
Dana was able to accommodate our dog on very short notice, which we really appreciated. Communication was excellent from start to finish. She was very responsive and sent plenty of pictures and updates throughout the stay. Most importantly, our dog came home happy and well cared for. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to others looking for a reliable sitter.
Shital was a fantastic sitter! My dog loved being with her and Shital showed him care and love and made sure he felt welcome! We met beforehand to meet Shital, and it was clear she is an experienced carer. Shital provided plenty of pictures and updates while my dog was in her care. He enjoyed his time there and I will be booking with Shital in the future!
This was our first time with our dog staying overnight somewhere so we were a little apprehensive, but Janine made us feel at ease by giving us a tour of her house and how well she cares for her dogs. Maple also gets to play with other dogs so she loves staying there.
Krystal & Quinn took wonderful care of our dog Artemis, they kept us continuously informed on how our dog was doing and kept her engaged throughout our trip (she’s a high energy dog who loves to play so we really appreciate it!) They also were very prompt to reply to any questions we had and took on this boarding on very short notice, we will definitely be boarding with them again in the future 😁

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Union City on Rover is $60.58 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 7,030 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.
