“Karen was great - I was nervous leaving my dog for the first time. Karen is very caring and gave her extra attention the first few days to help her feel at ease. She also sent me lots of pictures and notes throughout the stay to help me feel at ease. The company of Karen's dogs is a plus. Highly recommended.”

About: As a life long dog owner, I know how important it is to have someone else in your circle to care for your pets. I have raised my own lab from a puppy and trained her to be the best house dog she can be! I love to be active and on the go! Senior dogs who want to soak up every moment this life has to offer is also in my wheel house. I'm currently working part time as a substitute teacher and I am done for the day around 2:30 pm. I will have evenings free for walks and boarding. I don't have children of my own, so offering services for pets is a way I can contribute to this new community I have found myself in. I have a fenced in yard and access to an open walking path within walking distance of my home. As a PE teacher, I am very active and love to stay moving after school. I have always believed a tired dog, is a happy dog :) I also have experience in nannying and professional organizing, so staying in a client's home is also something I am privy to.

“Mark was incredible! We will definitely be booking with him and his sweet family again in the future. Mark was communicative and sent check-in texts with photos throughout Benny's stay there. When we picked Benny up at the end of the weekend, he was SO tired in all the best ways. Thanks so much again, Mark!”

“We left our mixed lab, Kaylee with Max and his lovely family for 5 days, and what an amazing time she had! Max and his family took her out for walks, gave her a ton of attention, and updated us with adorable pictures. I would not hesitate to leave Kaylee with Max and his family again. They kept her happy, active, and healthy. Thank you, Max!”

About: I'm very attentive to detail and always make sure to follow any specific instructions or routines that your pet may have. I'm also very reliable and will always show up on time for visits. Pet sitting can be a great way to break up your day and get some fresh air. You can schedule visits around your other commitments and enjoy some quality time with your furry friends. Your pet's home away from home. The safety and environment for a pet should be comfortable, clean, and secure. The pet should have access to food and water, as well as a comfortable bed or crate. The environment should be free of hazards and dangerous objects. Additionally, the pet sitter should be trained in pet care, including how to handle emergencies.

“We had a great experience with Lex as Mochi’s sitter! She was very caring, attentive, and kept us updated, which gave us so much peace of mind. One thing we truly appreciated is her patience and understanding, even when we were running late picking Mochi up, she was more than willing to wait and didn’t make us feel rushed at all. Mochi came home happy and well taken care of. We would definitely trust Lex again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind pet sitter!”

About: I grew up with 7 to 10 dogs in the house at any given time, so dogs have pretty much always been part of my life. Over the years I've cared for all kinds of personalities, from calm and cuddly to young and full of energy, and I've trained my own dogs too.   I really enjoy just being around dogs. Walks, playtime, hanging out on the couch, all of it. I'm patient, I pay attention to the little things, and I want your dog to feel comfortable and happy while you're gone.   I also know what it's like to have to leave your dog behind. My own dog is still back home in the Philippines, and I'm saving up to bring them here with me. So every walk and every stay with your pup gets me a little closer to having mine with me again. It means a lot, and I'll treat your dog the way I'd want someone to treat mine. I work a corporate Monday–Friday job, and my office is only about 5 minutes from my pet-friendly apartment, which makes it easy for me to provide care before and after work. I’m currently in the process of bringing my own dog over from the Philippines, and while I’m waiting for him to arrive, I’d love to spend that time caring for and enjoying other dogs. I’m available for boarding on weekends, with drop-off Friday evening and pick-up Sunday evening or Monday morning. My weekends are generally very open, so I can give your dog plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. I have a two-bedroom apartment with plenty of space, and I tailor activities to each dog’s routine, energy level, and activity history. Whether they prefer a relaxed walk, playtime at the park, or simply lounging at home, I’m happy to make them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet based on their individual routine, personality, and needs. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel at home. I make sure they get regular walks, playtime, attention, and plenty of love throughout their stay. I also follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, bathroom breaks, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I understand that every dog is different, so I adjust their activities based on their energy level and activity history. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own and want them to feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

“We had an exceptional experience with Monika, who boarded our pup for the weekend. From the start, her communication was prompt and friendly, putting our minds at ease. During the stay, Monika sent regular updates, including pictures and videos, showing that Chief was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear that she treated Chief like one of her own, which meant the world to us. We highly recommend Monika to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

“Keith and his wife Jennifer are amazing with my greyhounds and my greys truly love them. They are a special breed and former racers, so they have some personalities. They always come back so content and happy. They are previous dog owners of large breeds, so I feel very comfortable to leave my sticks with them. Highly recommend.”

About: Pups have been a part of my life for 40 years, caring for them comes naturally to me. I take time to learn each dogs personality, routines sot hey feel safe and comfortable with me. My schedule is extremely flexible, reliable. My routine is extremely flexible. I currently don't have a permanent fur babies which may benefit some.

EXCELLENT!!!!!!!! I was nervous - it was my first time leaving my boy with a stranger. I met Carol a few weeks before and Percy (my dog) acted as if he has been to her house before. He made himself comfortable from the start. In later returned to leave him for a few days. It went fantastic!! Percy seemed to have enjoyed his "vacation". I already booked my next sitting with Carol. Definitely recommend.

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Oak Ridge

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Oak Ridge is $60 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $45 and $72 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 939 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Oak Ridge. About 90% of Oak Ridge 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.
