About: I have grown up caring for many different types of dogs, from puppies to rescues. Most recently, I had the privilege of caring for a my favorite fella, a collie, until his final days as a senior at 16 years old. Since his passing I have not yet rescued another baby, but I spend time volunteering as a Level 2 Dog Companion at ACC. I have completed Fear Free Trainings with the Shelter as well as various other trainings that involve caring for, navigating, and managing more complicated dog behaviors that include leash reactivity, dog reactivity, fear and anxiety, shyness, among others. Notes about my specific availability: Wednesday and Thursday: from 3-6pm only and intermittently Friday, Saturday, and Sunday: 11am -3pm only I just finished my doctoral degree and teach part-time. My teaching schedule typically resides Mon - Thursday at varying times. I spend much of the rest of my free time working at home or taking walks in the city. When caring for a visiting dog, I devote the majority of my time engaging with them. I do not have a yard and live in an apartment. I have taken the extra effort to provide toys, and a bed for visiting friends. I am attentive to potential hazards and take the extra effort to dog proof before a visitor. The few small plants that I have are pet safe, and I only use pet safe products in my home.
“Charlie stayed with Katherine this past weekend. She came and picked him up from my house and brought home home right when she said she would. During his stay, Katherine kept me updated with pictures. It looked like Charlie was having a great time. He came home happy and exhausted!”
“Alicia was great with our dog Stardust! She listened to all of our instructions, was easy to communicate with, and sent lots of pictures throughout her stay.”
“Wei Han was wonderful! My pup had such a great time and she even gave her a t-shirt to go home in. I could really enjoy my vacation knowing Sadie was in good hands. I would definitely use her again!”
“Thank you, Ron! Ron took excellent care of our pug, Wallace over a 4-day stay. Communication was a breeze, he sent daily photo & video updates, paid meticulous attention to the care instructions we sent, and Wallace came back healthy and happy!”
“Sophia was such a great sitter for our Teddy! She kept me posted the whole time and sent lots of pictures. Very easy to communicate with and Teddy came back to us and seemed like he was very comfortable and well taken care of. We would definitely recommend Sophia! And we will definitely be reaching out to her for any dog sitting needs.”

Roman is a wonderful dog sitter! He watched our 8 year old chihuahua mix Jasper for 6 days and made us feel assured leaving our dog for the first time since adopting him 4 months ago. He was flexible, working with our travel schedule, communicative, and very caring of our dog. He provided consistent updates with pictures and it was clear that Jasper was very comfortable and happy staying with him!
Doosung took care of our dog Rudy for a week recently. He was very responsive and even offered to meet ahead of time since it was our first time meeting him. He took Rudy for long walks every day and they spent lots of time outside. We loved all the photos-it looked like Rudy had a great time! We will definitely be working with him again.
Marcus and Antinio are terrific my little guy Brookie, while friendly, doesn’t get comfortable very quicklybwith others enough to hop in their lap which he did with these two. I got regular updates including photos and videos that i greatly appreciated. I am thrilled that he will be staying with them fir a longer time in a few months. I have had several wonderful other sitters over the years and Marcus and Antonio are at the top.
Adeanna was wonderful with my little pup. Extremely communicative and provided pictures and information while we were away. And my pup even ATE, which she doesnt usually do so easily when we are away. We will use her again! Thank you for taking such good care of our precious pup, Adeanna!
Janis was outstanding. Biggie was so happy staying at her lovely apartment. She was so warm and caring with him and I could tell as soon as I arrived, and again when I picked Biggie up, that I had stumbled across a complete gem. I will absolutely be using Janis again in the future. Wouldn’t want to deny Biggie another opportunity to hang out with her. Thank you, Janis!
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!
Our dog stayed with Jessica for a week while we were out of town, and I'm so pleased with the care he received. He is a senior dog and takes medication daily, and Jessica was just wonderful in making sure his needs were met. She also took great lengths to make sure he was comfortable during his stay, and I really appreciated the photos and updates I received. Highly recommended!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Union City on Rover is $55.5 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 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 14,526 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.
