“I highly recommend Cynthia and plan to book again soon!. Our pup had an excellent experience, especially for her first visit. Cynthia went above and beyond in every category, including communication and care, walking her daily, and even giving her a bath. She came home bright, happy and in beautiful condition with special treats. Cynthia is a warm, caring, and very responsible sitter, noting all details. Her emphasis on safety, and frequent photos were especially appreciated. Our pup was very well looked after in every way, thanks to the kindness of Cynthia!”
“There was very good communication from the beginning of the book till the end. I appreciated the updates with pictures of my dog. I would definitely rebook with Kimberly in the future. Service was 10/10.”
“Wow! I was blown away by the level of personal care and professionalism Sarah offered! She was quick to respond every time I reached out before my booking, and also while she took care of my dog. She took photos and gave me daily updates. When we picked our dog up, she came out to meet us with all of his things, and she even had photos and a gift for us! I will definitely use Sarah again!”
“Kelsey was great! Her house and environment is so clearly set up for any dogs needs. Her kids were gentle and well dog informed! My dog has IBD and she was kind enough to give me details about her appetite, any GI upset, etc. She was communicative and available and really put my mind at ease! Would/will absolutely use her services in the future!”
“My dogs always have an amazing time with Kendra! She sends pictures and is excellent at communicating. I feel really comforted that when I drop my dogs off they RUN to get inside and are just so excited!”
“We felt so grateful and comfortable leaving our 110 lb “puppy” with Nicole and Cody!! Not everyone is comfortable with his very large and energetic puppy enthusiasm, but they handled him with loving understanding and firmness - which he needs. He had so much fun with all his new buddies - and came home happy and exhausted. Thank you!”
“Angela was SO amazing. She was referred to me by my neighbor and did NOT disappoint. She was quick to reply to any and all messages and was super friendly and accommodating. She was picking up my neighbors dogs the same day and offered to pick mine up to which saved me so much time! She was great about updating me on my pup while we were out of town and even took initiative and gave him a bath when he seemed to be a little itchy. 10/10 recommend and will be booking her in the future! Thank you so much Angela and family! Ripley had the best time!”
“Jennifer was really kind and upfront about caring for my dogs who have some anxiety. She has such knowledge and skill she could manage them with aplomb and it allows me to feel comfortable leaving them with her.”
“Kelsey took wonderful care of our dog, Ruby, while we were out of town for a few days. Ruby had so much fun with Kelsey’s dogs and you could tell she instantly felt at home. Thank you so much for treating her like your own!”
“April was awesome! Pinky had a great time and we got pictures and videos. It was our first time leaving her with a sitter and we were nervous, but we’re put at ease as soon as we arrived. And Pinky is now crate trained!! If we are ever in the area again, we would board with April!”
“Teri is Amazing. Kind, gentle and very caring. I highly recommend her. Addie told me she never wants to go anywhere else!! Thank you so much Teri. Nikki and Addie”
About: I have been raising and caring for Dogs/Cats, and many other animals my entire life! I grew up on a farm in rural Michigan and always had multiple pets and responsibilities to the care of those animals! I’m currently Active duty in the Navy, and am an avid runner/hiker! My house has a big grassy patch that your pet would love to run around in ! I live in a house in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of grass and free space and live a short walk from a dog park so all the zoomies can be taken care for animals of any size !
“Aarika was absolutely amazing!! She was flexible and communicative through our entire last-minute planning process. She sent daily progress updates and photos of our sweet boy smiling and having so much fun (and getting lots of pats, which he loves!!) We will absolutely be booking with Aarika again! :)”
“Wow! This was my first Rover.com experience and it couldn't have gone any better! Virginia and family treated my elderly pup, Kipper, like one of their own. He came back worn out, needing a nap and lolling his tongue, as if he'd just returned from a highly satisfying trip to Disneyland. I strongly recommend Virginia for your boarding needs. She paid attention when we explained Kipper's idiosyncrasies, was flexible on pickup and drop-off timing, and obviously played Dog Mom as well as Kipper's own could!”
“Deidre is the best! She took care of our two very energetic dogs for four days and it went great! Deidre is an excellent communicator and a wonderful dog whisperer. We’ll definitely be asking for her to care for the dogs again.”
“Top notch intuitive sitter with a keen eye for my dog's unique mental and physical wellbeing. I feel confident in her ability to provide the care and support for my Dog with a severe food allergy. I was also pleased that her partner also was aligned with providing a watchful eye for her too.”
“Amanda watched my dog and took great care of him while I was in unexpected hospital visit. Thank you so much for last minute flexibility in a crisis and coming to my house and picking up my dog!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Oak Harbor
Kevin and Mandy were awesome with my little dog, Leo! We did a meet and greet where I could tell my dog felt comfortable in their space and around their cats… then during my trip, they texted me photos of naps and adventures…I was secretly worried Leo wouldn’t want to come home 😂 I could tell Leo had a blast and was in good hands. So grateful and will definitely book a Leo “vacay” again as the need arises 🙏
Jenny is a great Rover that I have used twice now and got so lucky finding her! She’s good with communication, trustworthy, friendly, and I can tell my dog loves her. She definitely makes your pet feel at home and I have peace of mind when using her services. 5 stars!
Haley is so great with our dog. I was nervous to leave him with someone else as he’s older and has some issues, but Haley is caring, patient and understanding. She also always sends us updates, too, which I love. Thank you for taking care of Pyro like you’re own ❤️
Nicole and Cody are awesome when they really do treat your pet like their own. I was a little nervous leaving my dutch shepherd pooka with them but they sent pictures and videos to let me know how he was doing. I would recommend them to anyone looking for great pet sitter i know I will definitely be using them in the future.
We had such a wonderful experience with Brianna! She boarded our two dogs for several days and went above and beyond in every way. She sent frequent update photos, which gave us so much peace of mind, and was incredibly attentive to all of their needs. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. Brianna was accommodating, reliable, and genuinely caring. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional dog care!
We are so grateful to Dana and her family for taking such great care of Milo. They treated him like part of their own family and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Milo was happy, well cared for, and clearly had a great time. We truly appreciate the love and attention they gave him and would absolutely trust them again!
Fantastic sitters/boarders with my 2 large Great Pyrenees at their home. They came back healthy, joyous, and happy and really enjoyed themselves at the doggy resort that is their home. Louis and his wife also came to my home to attend my 2 cats who were also healthy and happy upon our return. They are my first choice as long as they are available!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Oak Harbor
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Oak Harbor on Rover is $34.24 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 408 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Oak Harbor. 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.
95% of Oak Harbor 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 Oak Harbor 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 Oak Harbor 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 Oak Harbor.
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 Oak Harbor 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 WA 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.
