“Kevin was perfect. He was able to accommodate my last minute booking request and my dog was very happy and I could tell he was treated with the upmost care. Gave frequent updates and made sure my dog was comfortable in a new environment”
“This was Fig’s second stay with Xander. Drop off to pick up was smooth with pictures and updates along the way. Fig was excited to see Xander when I dropped him off which was a good sign. Looking forward using Xander again soon!”
“Reka and her family took such wonderful and loving care of my dog Rafa, who was clearly very happy with them for the entire time he was with them. I am so grateful to them and couldn’t recommend Reka more.”

“We rescued Madre just a few months before we called on Eva to spend the weekend with her and we could not have left our dog in better hands. We felt very comfortable having her stay at our apartment and take care of Madre. It was clear from the beginning she loved dogs, but she also had a special place in her heart for Staffies, who can be easily misjudged. We came home to a very happy dog and a lovely detailed note about Madre's mood and her activities throughout the weekend. We'll definitely book Eva again! ”
“Yusuf was able to accommodate me with relatively short notice, and he took great care of my Ziggy. He's very communicative and responds quickly, I highly recommend him!”
“James & his family were great! They gave Austin lots of attention & took him on walks, to the park & even the beach. He was super patient with Austin’s leash reactivity which I greatly appreciated. I knew Austin was in good hands while I was away.”
“We booked Roman last minute and he was excellent! Frequent videos, pictures, and updates of Jobi were incredibly reassuring as this was his first time staying with someone other than a friend/family member. So glad we have someone reputable in the neighborhood to watch our pup!”
“Suhani is everything you could want in a sitter - diligent, responsive, and obviously loves dogs. She did such an incredible job looking after Korra; normally Korra is so excited to see me it’s all she can focus on and she wants to go home right away, but with Suhani she kept trying to go back into her apartment after drop off / was looking back for her! I can tell she was so loved and cared for and would definitely rebook in the future.”
“What a fantastic experience!! I was visiting Brooklyn from Texas. My pup, Xena, stayed with Will and Lauren for 4 nights and it was such a positive experience. My pup fit right in and enjoyed all the consistent walks, cuddles, and attention they gave her. They were always quick to respond, flexible, and obviously true dog lovers. I’m so grateful for them and would definitely recommend them to others. Thanks you two!”
“The reviews are 100% accurate! I would give Paola ten stars if I could. She was AMAZING with my special needs senior dog: patient, understanding, caring and supportive. It was so comforting to know that my vulnerable little dog was under the care of such a compassionate and conscientious caregiver. I am truly blessed to have found Paola!”
“TJ was absolutely great! He was reliable, communicative, and took wonderful care of my dog while I was away. I really appreciated the updates and the peace of mind that came with knowing my dog was comfortable, happy, and in good hands. TJ made the entire experience easy and stress-free, and I could tell he genuinely cared. I would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Luzia and Laura were so great with my shih tzu Ruthie! She got all the cuddles she needed and I got all the picture updates I could have asked for. Will definitely be booking with them again.”
“Anne was lovely and kept intouch throughout the stay. Her Condo is lovely, bright and spacious. She has a doggy couch, a large bowl of fresh water and toys available for guests. Nugget had a good time.”
“Wes is just awesome. He took in my dog, Jack, for 2 weeks while I was abroad. Wes knew I was anxious and it was my first time leaving my baby for that length of time. He was super kind, responsive, and sent me tons of photos and videos. I felt so relieved knowing Jack was having the best time running around, and cuddling (his two favorite activities). Wes was even understanding when my flight was delayed because of the IT outage, and I had to pick up Jack late. Thank you so much! Highly recommend Wes!”
“Marina and Renata are great! They are always very communicative, easy to work with, send lots of pics, and take great care of our dog. He is always so happy to see them and gets so excited when he realizes we are walking to their place. Would highly recommend!”
“Mariana took amazing care of our senior dog during our 7 day vacation. She made sure our dog had her medications when needed and lots of cuddles and attention. She made sure to keep us updated regularly with texts and photos. Our dog can’t wait to see Mariana again!”

Chi-Wing is amazing and always very attentive to my furbabies’ needs! This was my third time using their dog-sitting service, and I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about them. They are incredibly caring, compassionate, and attentive. Anyone looking for a dog-sitting or boarding service would be lucky to have their fur babies under Chi-Wing’s care! I especially love how they consistently keep you updated and send pictures every day, which gives me peace of mind while I’m away. I will definitely continue entrusting my dogs to them every time I travel. I highly recommend Chi-Wing to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, and caring dog boarding service. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my furbabies! ❤️ Patrick
Audrey really is the best! Tarzan and I love her and Rapha so much, Tarzan barely wanted to leave and missed her the whole ride home🥹 this is only the second time we’ve had Audrey but already the bond is strong which is what I wanted out of having a sitter so my boy is just as loved while I’m away. Thank you so much and look forward to contacting her again for future trips!
The moment we entered Aviance’s block to drop Churro off, she was SO excited to see her again! Churro was pulling on her leash, running right up to her with her tail wagging like crazy—it meant everything to me 🤍 Aviance also sent me updates about Churro multiple times a day while I was away, which was such a huge relief. I felt completely at ease knowing Churro was in such good hands. Highly recommend Aviance!
Onelsis was absolutely wonderful! She was so sweet, attentive, and incredibly responsive throughout Millie’s stay. She sent us lots of photos and updates every day, and it was clear that Millie was getting plenty of walks, attention, and love. We were out of the country for almost a week, and Onelsis made us feel completely comfortable and at ease knowing Millie was in such good hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!
Hard to imagine better care we could expect for our 8 months cats in or 4 days absence. Fortunately for us, we found Rover app and contacted few days before trip. What was good: - communication when/where to meet, what to bring whit kittens (it was first time for me and them) - flexible schedule for kittens "check-in" and "check-out" - she is located close to my place, so cats weren't stressed to much during the trips there and back - regular photo/video/text reports about how these guys were doing What can be improved:- not detected. Maybe I was even a bit jealous how comfortable/pacified my kittens were on these pictures. Was afraid if they want to leave her when I come to pick up them )
Cannot recommend Annie and her husband enough! She was super flexible around our schedule and was always incredibly responsive. She sent frequent updates to let us know Obi was safe, happy and comfortable. We were initially nervous to have someone new watching our pup but were immediately at ease thanks to all the updates. Looking forward to booking again :)

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Union City is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $81 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 14,576 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Union City. About 88% of Union City sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
