“Theresa was an excellent caretaker of our senior Yorkshire terrier. She took the time to understand the uniqueness of our aging dog and was very empathetic. Because she listened so well to our concerns, I felt great leaving him for the weekend and he had a great time. She’s responsive and transparent in communication. Her family is the sweetest, and I promise your pup will get lots of snuggles in their stay with Theresa with all the attention!”
“Cassie and her family were great sitters for us! She is very laid back and friendly. Great place out of town and lots of room to roam! We got pictures and feed back during their stay! Will definitely use her again!”
“Kelly proactively provided updates and pics throughout our trip...was not expected, but certainly appreciated. Our pup stayed active and even got to visit the dog park in her short stay. Very happy and will use again!”
“Jenny is one of the best rovers we have ever had. Extremely thoughtful, caring and engaged. Our 4.5 month old puppy demands a lot and she was up for the task by ensuring he was taken care of and more! She provided very in depth updates with plenty of pictures. We are lucky to have someone we can trust to take care of our pup when we are away.”
“Rosangela is an amazing dog sitter. Excellent communication with fun daily updates. It was clear that my baby was in the best care with so much loving attention. I highly recommend her as she will be our go to every time.”
“I couldn’t be happier about finding Shevon & Ian - they are a perfect fit for Loki. Very caring, very attentive and understanding of a young but very large dog’s needs (and quirks!) They have a wonderful house with a huge fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood, and their daughter and dog Warren are equally awesome. Shevon even went out of her way between visits to help us find a new vet when Loki was struggling with a severe case of pneumonia. Can’t recommend them enough!”
“Remy and Kevin were amazing with our Ellie. It gave of piece of mind to know she was in such caring hands. They intuitively understand how to interact with our aging pup which allowed her to feel comfortable during our absence.”
“Anna provided really great care for Sloane! She sent me daily updates and Sloan always looked very happy and tired and all of her photos. Anna also has a really great backyard where pups can run around and I know that Sloane really appreciated the opportunity to explore! We will definitely be rebooking at some point!”
“Our dogs were so happy and loved! They felt comfortable enough to show their personalities, and loved their new friends. Even our grumpy old man came around.”
“Angela provides a kind, loving and stable second home to our rescue German shepherd mix Rufus. With family in the South and West, we take a lot of trips. Rufus can’t come on all of them. Angela is truly a saving angel who does everything she can to be available. Rufus is almost as excited to see her at the beginning of his stay as he is to see us at the end! Can’t recommend enough.”
“We love Takenya! This was our third time boarding our dog Daisy with her and as always, she took wonderful care of her and sent lots of photos and videos. Daisy is always so excited to see her, which makes leaving her so much easier. Takenya will continue to be our go to sitter whenever we’re out of town.”
“Bethany took awesome care of my dog! My dog is a very anxious guy and it really eased my own anxiety to know that he was with someone who could handle his quirks.”
“Deborah did a great job. She sent pictures of cookie having fun. She was relaxed and happy when I got back. Its such a relief to leave my baby with some one that treats her like at home.”
“Michelle, Mathew & their kids took such good care of our dogs while we were gone! We got lots of pictures of them being loved and snuggled and felt so at ease being away from them! They treated them like family! We couldn’t ask for anything more!”
“Jessica was the best! After a bit of a fiasco with another sitter, Jessica came through last minute and was a great back up. I will absolutely book her again. Our dog came home absolutely exhausted, but so happy, and we can't thank her enough for helping us out this weekend!”
“Emily's family took care of our dog Ramen for a week. Emily was very responsive to my messages and sent me several pictures. My dog had a great time playing with their dog and their little kids. Thank you so much!!”
About: I have been the guardian of three cats and a dog for 14 years. Currently raising a GSD and have raised another before her. Love making sure our friends are happy and healthy. Have experience with senior dog and cat medical care. Walks and hikes are a must in this household! I am currently working from home and am capable of setting my own schedule. Available throughout the week for one time visits to multiple visits and even boarding. Happy pets welcome! I have a fenced yard as well as both kitty and doggy friends. We love to talk walks in this family and explore the outdoors safely!
“Kelsey was so understanding and reassuring about my anxiety leaving my girl for a week! She sent daily updates and photos which are such a must have for my comfort level that on day two of my trip I felt so much better, knowing she was in such great hands and getting all the cuddles and snuggles she needed. Will absolutely be booking with her again for any trips we have, knowing she will get all the exercise, love, snuggles and attention she needs!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oakdale
Janine was very friendly and approachable. She did an outstanding job taking care of Kimchi for the day. She went above and beyond by walking our Husky twice during the time of her keep of Kimchi. We would definitely utilize her service again. She has a wonderful attitude and showed genuine concern for our dog.
Danielle and Chad spent a great deal of time giving each of our dogs the attention they most want. Mosley got lots of fetching play time and Ripley had share the couch with Chad, enjoying getting pet. Both Danielle and Chad handled their meals and medication as requested. Daily pictures showed our dogs having fun and playing nicely with Danielle's dogs.
Gem and her family took my dogs last minute and were amazing! It’s been a long time since we’ve left our dogs with a sitter. Gem kept me up to date with photos and videos while we were away leaving me knowing they were being well cared for! I will definitely be going back to Gem in the future and highly recommend her to any dog parent.
We couldn’t ask for a better sitter for Cooper! He stayed with Rozalyn & her family for two weeks while we were out of the country, and knowing he was in such loving hands made being so far from home so much easier! Cooper absolutely loves her and her girls, and her dog is his bestie! It really feels like he has a second family there. She’s caring, responsive, and sends plenty of updates, which we always look forward to. You can tell she truly cares about Cooper and wants him to feel comfortable, happy, and loved. Being away for two weeks is a long time, but I never worry when he’s with her. Having someone we trust this much is priceless. We’re so grateful to have found her and can’t recommend her enough!
This was Louie’s second stay with Carrie & Family, and this truly is a home away from home. Carrie was gracious and flexible when the stay needed to be extended due to a flight cancellation. Loving family, nice fenced yard, just a wonderful environment. We’re so grateful for their care!!
Ashley was perfect for our Freya. Freya was a little timid going to a new place, but as soon as we met and spoke with Ashley, I knew she would be in good hands. Ashley has a calming, caring demeanor. She welcomed Freya, who warmed right up to her. Her own dog was sweet and lovely and welcomed Freya as well. Ashley's home is in a very quiet neighborhood with nice walking areas. She sent photos of Freya on walks, resting on the sofa, and even performing a trick for a treat. I was very happy with her and will call her again next time we need a Rover.com. Lori M.
If I could give Katy more than 5 stars I absolutely would. My pup is a wheelchair pup who has a little more needs than some others might and Katy was extremely accommodating. She made her home his for the weekend. I’m usually nervous about leaving him places but she far surpassed my expectations when it came to caring about Miko! She was patient and thoughtful and updated me with lots of pics so I could still be in the loop. I would recommend her to anyone that is looking for someone to take care of their pup.

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Oakdale is $47 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $61 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 2,588 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Oakdale. About 92% of Oakdale 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 MN 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.
