We construct non-zero constant mean curvature H surfaces in the product spaces $\mathbb{S}^2 \times \mathbb{R}$ and $\mathbb{H}^2\times \mathbb{R}$ by using suitable conjugate Plateau constructions. The resulting surfaces are complete, have bounded height and are invariant under a discrete group of horizontal translations. In $\mathbb{S}^2\times\mathbb{R}$ (for any H > 0) or $\mathbb{H}^2\times\mathbb{R}$ (for H > 1/2), a 1-parameter family of unduloid-type surfaces is obtained, some of which are shown to be compact in $\mathbb{S}^2\times\mathbb{R}$. Finally, in the case of H = 1/2 in $\mathbb{H}^2 \times \mathbb{R}$, the constructed examples have the symmetries of a tessellation of $\mathbb{H}^2$ by regular polygons.
