“We flew across the world on what was a very stressful holiday trip but one thing I wasn’t stressed about was my dogs! they had a great time with Amy and her family. She takes great pics and gave detailed updates which I appreciated. We will definitely drop the pups off again next time we travel. Thank you!!”
“Vanessa and her family were great with my dog Oakley. She loved her stay there and for a dog that can be apprehensive in new environments she fit right in from the start. The pictures and updates were great. Oakley loved the backyard and playing with her friends there. Would highly recommend Vanessa. My pup was very well cared for throughout her stay.”
“Our dog’s stay with Lauren was wonderful. Her place had space for him to explore each evening, he had other dogs to socialize with, and she was able to spend plenty of time playing!”
“Heather is truly a one-of-a-kind dog sitter. She cared for my dog Rulo with such genuine love and attention that I felt completely at ease while I was away. Not only did she keep me updated and make sure all his needs were met, but she went above and beyond—she even baked him a dog-friendly cake for his birthday! It’s clear that Heather treats the dogs she watches as if they were her own. Rulo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly adored his time with her. I couldn’t recommend Heather more highly to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and thoughtful sitter. She’s the best!”
“She was so great! She clearly enjoyed having our dogs around and they looked like they had a blast! I highly recommend her. She was easy to communicate with and coordinate drop off/pick up.”
“Amber and her family are amazing! They welcomed Melo in as part of the fam for a whole week and he loved it. Their place is a great escape to roam around in nature and close to home. Also chickens… so plenty of entertainment and stimulation! lol”
“Banjo was so exceptionally taken care of! He’s a senior cat who needs meds 2x/day, and he settled right in at Naotake’s place! I loved seeing the pictures and getting a daily report of what he’d been up to.”
“Marilyn was amazing. Sent us so many updates and photos we really appreciated. Great yard for the dogs to play! Will definitely use her and her family again to watch our babies!”
“Alex was wonderful. Marvel seems so happy with him! He was a great communicator and offered me a lot of flexibility when my travel plans changed a little. Highly recommend and will be using him again next time I’m in town!”
“Erin did a wonderful job watching Islay while we were out of town! I appreciated regular updates and Islay seemed very happy and well taken care of. Erin was also flexible and helpful when our flights got delayed! We would definitely book with Erin again in the future.”
“Tracy was super responsive to my messages when I reached out to her about boarding my dog. We scheduled a meet and greet which was really helpful and she provided updates throughout my dog’s stay. I would definitely book again!”
“Kona was well taken care of by Yaryna and her family. She came home happy and full of energy. I got daily updates on how she was doing. She also got some good walks, which not all Rover sitters will do. I liked how she only takes one pet at a time. Very happy.”
“David took great care of my pups over a weekend. My one dog gets really nervous and anxious with boarding but he seemed to feel right at home with David. He kept us updated with photos and made sure that my pups had lots of playtime outside.”
“I could not possibly have chosen a better sitter for my dog! Ariel is so kind and caring and my dog was immediately at ease, even though she usually panics when I leave her. Absolutely would recommend :)”
“Ross and Sarah were absolutely amazing! I am blown away with how much time and care they put in to caring for my sweet special boy. They were so understanding of his quirks and they communicated clearly on how he was doing and what they were doing to help him be happy and comfortable. They sent many pictures and videos daily so I can see just how happy and how much fun he was having. Their patience, adaptability, and knowledge was everything to make me feel comfortable knowing my boy was in good hands. I couldn't give higher praise and will be happy to recommend them and ask them to watch my dog again in the future.”
“Denise took wonderful care of my 15-year-old pup, Tonalli! She kept me updated with thoughtful messages and adorable photos, which I really appreciated. It was clear Tonalli felt completely relaxed, comfortable, and safe in her care.”
“Evan was fantastic with Jefe for his overnight stay. He was extremely communicative, friendly, and welcoming from the start, and he has an incredible farm property with plenty of space for Jefe to explore and enjoy himself. Evan sent updates throughout Jefe’s stay, which gave us complete peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. His dog was also incredibly welcoming and seemed to make Jefe feel right at home. Jefe came home happy, relaxed, and absolutely exhausted from his time on the farm. He slept incredibly well that night, which is probably the best review he could give. We had a great experience with Evan and would absolutely trust him with Jefe again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Oaks
Amy and John (Alex) were absolutely amazing with my pup! They treated him like he was part of their family, even gave him a little nickname. You can truly tell how much they love and care for animals. Bill boy is on the anxious side and he instantly felt comfortable with them and actually excited to stay with them. It was like he got a little vacation too! I can’t recommend them enough!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Oaks is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,266 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Oaks. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
94% of sitters in Oaks 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 Oaks 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 Oaks.
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 Oaks. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Oaks 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 NC 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.
