“Teresa is very nice and friendly. She offered to do a meet-and-greet ahead with us and answered our questions to make sure it’s a good fit for both of us. She provided us pictures and video throughout the stay and also brought our dog to the dog park during the weekend. Hiram looked very happy and relax during his stay and we will definitely work with her again in the future.”
“Marsha was great with our 2 dogs while we were on vacation for a week. They seemed to have a lot of fun with her and her son. The daily pictures were much appreciated :)”
“Marian and Anwar took care of my labradoodle ZuZu for one night and two days. They enjoyed taking care of ZuZu and sent me many photos and videos. ZuZu was very happy boarding with them and playing with their dogs. I highly recommend their service and will board ZuZu again with them with no reservations.”
“Kuma enjoyed her long term stay with Jie. Thank you for always being so caring and loving with Kuma❤️ I also appreciated the updates that helped ease my anxieties of being away from my baby!”
“Janine and her family took care of my dog so, so well- as if she was one of their own! Janine is quick to answer if I had any questions and her updates and pictures of how my dog was doing kept me in the loop and provided peace of mind knowing everyone was having a great time!”
“Our pup had a great time with Jalen! He brought him on several long walks, gave him ice while he was teething, and introduced him to other dogs he works with. We will definitely be messaging Jalen next time we go out of town. Thank you again!”
“I am delighted with my buddy's boarding at Su B.'s. He was in excellent spirit when I went to pick him back. I will use Su B.'s place for my pal in the future if available, and I highly recommend it.”
“Thank you for a stress-free stay again! Nancy sends us photos and lets us know how our pup settles in the first few days and then periodically throughout the stay (this last stay was 2 weeks). Updates and excellent communication! Our pup loves going to their house and runs up the stairs and comes home happy and tired.”
“Sameer was great! This was our first time with him so we didn't know what to expect. He took our dog in at short notice, took great care of her, kept us posted on how she was doing, and sent some great pics (clearly my dog was having to much fun). Will definitely use him again!”
“Olivia was amazing! Our pup had a wonderful time! She had ample outside time and playtime with other dogs. We were provided many photos and updates throughout our stay. Will absolutely bring our girl back!”
“Adrienne and Edgar are awesome!! They were super responsive during our initial communications and sent plenty of photos of our Lula to reassure us that she was fitting in well in their home. Highly recommend booking with them!”
“Awesome experience have our Coco with Winkie and Lai, we get updates daily so we don’t have to worry about him. They even provide extra treats for Coco with our permission. Whenever we have questions, they respond promptly. I would definitely recommend them as your dog sitter and we would love to have our Coco with them again!”
“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”
“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.”
“Paula was absolutely fantastic with Tonka! From the moment we met, it was clear she had a genuine love for animals and a calming presence that put both me and Tonka at ease. She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, sending frequent updates and adorable photos that showed Tonka was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Tonka loved sitting on her lap and she did not mind it. She has dogs in her house and Tonka was happy to have a play buddy. I couldn’t be happier with the care Tonka received and wouldn’t hesitate to book with Paula again in the future. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, look no further!”
“Mariano was just great! He took on our request 3 months in advanced, and on was able to accommodate Auggie during Xmas holidays! He updated us almost daily with videos and pictures of Auggie to let us know how he was doing, and it was obvious that Auggie was having a good time! You can tell that Mariano really loves dogs and he knows how to make sure they are well taken care of. I would not hesitate to board with Mariano again! Recommended!”
“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.”
“Nano as usual had an amazing time, this time boarding with Ashita! Ashita was very diligent in making sure Nano took her medications everyday and eating her breakfast everyday (important for our picky eater with a sensitive stomach). Highly recommend”
“Dawn is an exceptional, all star, gem of a dog sitter. Her love for dogs shines through in her care and she understands them well. Dawn watched our older dog, Lewis, while we were out of town and brought him into her pack for amazing hikes outdoors and loving cuddles indoors. She provided frequent updates and ample photos which put us at ease as we knew Lewis was in great hands. Lewis came back to us well fed, well exercised, and well loved. We couldn't have asked for a better person to care for him. Thank you Dawn!!!”

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!
Pamela did an excellent job taking care of Stella while we were away. We felt very comfortable knowing Stella was in such caring and attentive hands. Pamela kept Stella happy and engaged, and Stella had a wonderful time playing with Pamela’s two dogs in the backyard and even enjoying the dog pool. It was clear that Stella felt comfortable and became very attached to Pamela and her furry friends. After coming home, Stella actually seemed a little sad, and we think she was already missing them! We truly appreciate the wonderful care Pamela gave Stella and the welcoming environment she provided. It gave us great peace of mind while we were away with our family. We would absolutely trust Pamela with Stella again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter. Thank you again, Pamela, for taking such wonderful care of Stella!
I had such a great experience with Judi! She took her time to get to know my dog Boo during our meet and greet, and she also gave me some tips/info on certain behaviors that Boo has. Throughout Boo’s stay she sent consistent updates and pictures/videos. Would definitely book with Judi again. Thank you Judi!
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.
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!
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!

FAQs for Boarding - Union City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Union City on Rover is $59.94 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 7,019 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.
