“Lisa did such an amazing job with my sweet Cavapoo! She watched her for a week and I got constant pictures and updates throughout the day. I will definitely use her for the future! She really cares for your pet like they’re her own.”
“Katie took care of our golden doodle Lucy with love and care. This was her first time boarded outside our home but their dogs played with Lucy well. Lucy was so happy after loosing her buddy Benz our chocolate lab 8 months ago. She sent us photos of our Lucy and gave us update so we can relax at our vacation out of state. Will definitely recommend her .”
“Robert and Caro took great care of my boy Otis. They sent lots of pictures and Otis looked happy and comfortable in all of them. They made an adorable “Little Report from My Stay” with a picture of Otis, a dog biscuit, and a list of Otis’s favorite things. They were very chill and flexible about drop off and pick up times. I would definitely recommend them to others and will for sure use their services again.”

There was an incident where one of our dogs damaged the blinds while trying to get through an open window, which was concerning and unusual behavior for her.

BEST ROVER AROUND! Our Annie had such an amazing stay with personal attention and lots of love. She is shy and nervous at first but Nakia Marie and Kurt took the time to give her the care she needed to bond and feel comfortable quickly. We will absolutely book again. Highly recommend!
This was our first time leaving our dog with Leah and James. They understood we were nervous since our dog is a senior dog. We were gone for over a month and Leah gave us frequent updates and pictures. They gave Erie the care and love he needed. I highly recommend them!
Robert and Caro took great care of my boy Otis. They sent lots of pictures and Otis looked happy and comfortable in all of them. They made an adorable “Little Report from My Stay” with a picture of Otis, a dog biscuit, and a list of Otis’s favorite things. They were very chill and flexible about drop off and pick up times. I would definitely recommend them to others and will for sure use their services again.
Parker did a great job taking care of our Lany girl! She came home worn out! She seemed to enjoy being there. He sent a few pictures and videos to let us know she was doing well. Parker was very responsive and got back to us quickly. We had a different sitter cancel on us a couple weeks before we were needing them due to a family emergency and Parker was able to get us in. He did a fantastic job taking care of her! Thanks Parker!
Evette watched my Cockapoo, Menlo, for over two weeks, and the experience was beyond my expectation! She created a true doggy heaven living environment where all the pups are a similar size, allowing them to play safely. Evette’s love and understanding to take care of all doggies is incredible. She also kept me reassured with plenty of photos and quick responses to my texts. Highly recommend!
Katie was absolutely fantastic! She took amazing care of our dog and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She sent lots of updates and photos. Katie made the whole experience easy and stress-free. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful Rover sitter!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Oakdale is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $44 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.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Oakdale can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Oakdale 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 Oakdale.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oakdale. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Oakdale 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 UT 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
