Angela (and her partner Dan) took great care of Truffle. They sent meticulous updates with photos throughout the day. Truffle got to spend plenty of time outside and was very comfortable in their home.

I was looking for a sitter for my dog, Franky, and found Iliana on Rover. If you're looking for a sitter and considering hiring her, look no further and book right now! Her reviews speak for itself, but I will say that Franky did not want to leave her when we picked him up after his 3 night stay! She went above and beyond for Franky, sleeping with him at night, deshedding him, bathed him, took him out to the park. She never left his side, and is very caring to the animals that she watches and 'treats them like family' (her words), which is excellent. She texted us multiple pictures of Franky during his stay, which made us feel that much better, since we never leave Franky alone. That made a stressful time (for both us and Franky) that much more easier. We will definitely book her again.

Karly was great with our Frenchie and we will definitely reach out again. She allowed us to bring him over prior to his stay so he could be familiar and meet her. She also sent lots of updates throughout our time away and went above and beyond for pick up and drop off. Highly suggest :)

Sabrina was amazing with magnolia! I’ve had unfavorable Rover experiences in the past so planned ahead and did a meet and greet. I could tell instantly how warm and genuine she is- she even read up on the notes before that meeting. I felt super comfortable heading into our weekend away. During the weekend she gave several updates and was generous with photos/ videos all descriptive of magnolias characteristics. I knew Magnolia loved her stay with Sabrina when I picked her up and she kept looking back for her to walk away with us! I will absolutely book with her again whenever she’s free!

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received from Tori! From the moment we arrived, I could tell this was going to be a great experience. My dog was so happy, relaxed, and clearly loved every moment he spent with her. Tori treated him like her own, showering him with love, attention, and all the cuddles he could ask for. It’s such a relief to know he was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be bringing him back—this was the best experience we’ve had by far. Highly recommend!

Throughout the week, they sent me several updates each day, which helped ease my anxiety and let me enjoy my time away. I would absolutely use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring sitters!

Yejin did an amazing job taking care of our pup Richard while we were out of town. She went above and beyond sending us consistent updates and taking him on long walks around the neighborhood. She also spoiled him by getting him some yummy treats! Richard seemed so happy and calm. We will definitely book her again next time we are in need of a sitter.

About: Hi! I have had pets my whole upbringing, but living in the city now I miss that interaction, especially with dogs. I love walking dogs, playing with them, or just chilling at home. I have a very clean and calm environment and live with my fiancé who also loves and grew up with pets! I work fully remote with a job that has flexible hours so I am able to take walks throughout the day and love to do so. I get outside every morning and afternoon, and I am an active person so longer walks are great, but happy to also hang and play at home. I have a clean and safe apartment that is pet friendly (other dogs in the building). The living room is spacious for playing with smaller dogs, and we live in a very walkable neighborhood for outside time! I don’t have pets here and am currently only dog sitting on Rover.

Another great boarding with Marlene! My dog was so happy to see her, and it was great to leave town knowing she was in the best hands. I got regular photo updates, and my girl looked happier and healthier when I picked her up than she did when I dropped her off. I think she's a little sad to be home though...😂

I couldn’t be more grateful that Leo was in Chi Wing and his wife’s care while I was on the other side of the country. They made the entire experience completely stress-free and reassuring. They were incredibly communicative, sending me lots of photos and videos throughout Leo’s stay. It was clear from every update that he was being very well cared for and, most importantly, that he was happy! Seeing him having fun, playing with other dogs, and looking so comfortable gave me so much peace of mind. They took great care to make sure Leo was eating well, getting plenty of potty breaks, staying active, and receiving lots of attention and affection. I always felt informed and confident that he was in excellent hands. I highly recommend Chi Wing and his wife to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring dog sitters. I would absolutely leave Leo in their care again without hesitation!

We couldn't be happier with the care our puppy receives when he stays with Haziza! She treats him like a member of her own family and gives us complete peace of mind whenever we're away. Her communication is excellent, and we love receiving the many photos and updates she sends throughout his stay. It's clear how much she genuinely cares about him, and our puppy absolutely loves spending time with her family. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and attentive dog sitter!

Leaving your dog with someone is ultimately an act of trust. Caren made that trust easy. She is warm, attentive, reliable, and clearly loves what she does. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Freud with her and beautiful Theo again. I would wholeheartedly recommend Caren to anyone looking for someone who will care for their dog as if they were her own. Thank you, Caren. Freud has already asked when he’s coming back, he woofs you 🐾

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Union City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Union City on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 14,283 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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.
