“Our second time booking with Jorge & Alejandra, they are wonderful! Took such great care of our pup, she got more playtime with them than she ever gets at home! Will definitely book with them again.”
“I love using Candice to take care of Ahsoka. She is reliable and flexible and consistently sends me pics, and she was this time as usual. I look forward to hiring Candice again.”
“Brianna was wonderful! The girls were well taken care of & had no issues giving them their pills every morning. Our girls will be back for another stay — we are so lucky to have found her. Highly recommend!”
“Veronica does a great job taking care of our dogs. They always come back happy, healthy, and tired. She sends photos during the stay and is communicative. I highly recommend Veronica to look after your pup!”
“Suzi was so great with our 16 year old, senior pup. We were nervous at first since we don’t often have others watch Roxy. Suzi was very patient with her and gave us regular updates and pictures, which we really enjoyed and appreciated. She even went out of her way to purchase additional wet food for Roxy (we sent her with wet and dry). We know Roxy enjoyed herself. Would highly recommend!”
“My only hesitation with leaving a review is that John and his family will get so much attention that they’ll be booked next time we try to use them! Kidding, sort of. Seriously though, they were wonderful. Very communicative and thoughtful. One of our pups is super nervous being left, and John and his wife sent lots of pictures and reassured us that all was going well. We couldn’t have been happier with the visit and we have already booked them again!!”
“Musa and his family took such great care of my kitten, Grogu! It was obvious that Grogu was played with a lot and given great attention. Thank you, Musa! We would love to have you watch him again??”
“Aly was great at communicating. She sent a picture every day and responded to mr message right away. Definitely glad I found her. Thank you for taking a great care of Mocha”
“Andrea is awesome!! It was our first Rover experience and it couldn’t have gone better! She took great care of our dog Ginger and sent lots of cute updates of Ginger and her dogs being the sweetest friends! Andrea is very communicative and takes the time to really get to know the dog she is caring for. We will 100% be a repeat client. Highly recommend! Thank you Andrea!”
“John was the most attentive care taker! He took Murph on so many adventures and captured so many photos, I felt like I was there! Will definitely be rebooking! Thank you so much.”
“Rambo never forgets the way to Sujan’s house! The closer we get, the more excited he becomes. He always has a great time during his stay and comes home happy, tired, and ready for a nap. Thanks for taking care of Rambo!”
“Michelle was great with our 7 month old puppy that we needed to have boarded a few nights. We have a high energy dog and she had the perfect backyard for her to run in. She also gave us pictures and updates daily. We would definitely recommend her!!”
“This is our second time using Sam’s services and just like the first time, everything was amazing! Our dog Penny loves to visit Sam and Happy and I know she is in good hands. Sam took wonderful care of Penny and even administered medicine to her. Sam is gracious, accommodating and a wonderful dog sitter!”
“Kate was so caring and nice to my dog, Boomer! He got to play in the dog park and I got lots of photos of him getting so much attention. Kate was so considerate when she learned Boomer was scared of elevators and let him use the stairs the rest of his visit to make him more comfortable. I will definitely be booking with Kate again in the future.”
“We boarded our 7 month old puppy with Rachel and it was an amazing experience. Rachel sent us tons of cute pictures, followed all our directions, and communicated throughout our puppy's stay. When we picked up our puppy she didn't want to leave she had had so much fun! We highly recommend Rachel!”
“Andrew and his family pampered and took fabulous care of Archie! We highly recommend them! It is clear that Archie just adores being with them. We look forward to booking with them again!”
“We had a great experience with Youyou! She took wonderful care of my dog and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout his stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. My dog seemed happy and comfortable, and we truly appreciate all the love and attention she gave him. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to other pet parents🩵”
“Leslie took great care with our boys, Bodhi and Bear. This was the first time we left them with a pet sitter. It was reassuring to get regular updates and photos for our boys from Leslie. She did a wonderful job caring for them, giving them plenty of love and activity. They seemed to settle right in and had a great stay. I highly recommend Leslie and will use her again!”

Claire and Simon were amazing with Luna! We felt like she was taken care of so well and it looked like it was her second home from how comfortable she was. Claire gave updates and pictures everyday to put our mind at ease that Luna was doing well. We will definitely be using them again with our next trip!
Brianna was great with Nalu! She listened to what she needed and followed instructions. I received updates and photos throughout the visit, and Nalu seemed so happy in the photos 😊. I even received the cutest photo collage during pick up, which I’m putting up on my fridge!
Cindy was absolutely wonderful! This was my first time using Rover, so I was naturally a little nervous about leaving Annie and Archie. From the very beginning, Cindy’s communication was excellent. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease and allowed me to truly relax and enjoy my vacation. One of my biggest concerns was leaving Annie, who is an older girl with lifelong health issues. She requires medication with every meal, and Cindy took on her care without hesitation. Knowing Annie’s special needs were in such capable hands meant so much to me. It was clear that both Annie and Archie were well cared for and genuinely loved while we were away. We came home to two happy, relaxed pups, and I couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience. I highly recommend Cindy to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative pet sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Tom did a wonderful job caring for Jennie while we were away! I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a loving family to care for their dog. He took her on energizing walks each morning before it got hot, and and gave her plenty of time to play with other neighborhood dogs, which she loves. Tom shared photos and videos daily of Jennie playing, walking, and feeling very much at home! We will definitely reach out to Tom the next time we need help.
Michelle was amazing with our two doodles! We could tell from the first visit they felt safe in her home and trusted her. Her home is very pet friendly and suitable for extended pet stays. She sent daily pix and videos of them. We could tell they were happy and she treated them with love like they were her own. Michelle's positive energy made it apparent our girls were safe in her care. We would definitely recommend her to anyone seeking a qualified pet sitter who will help you feel relaxed so you can enjoy your time away from your pets.
Aly was amazing with Cheeki! I left Cheeki with her for 10 days while I was traveling, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She sent pictures and updates every day, which gave me so much peace of mind and let me enjoy my trip knowing Cheeki was doing well. She was incredibly accommodating with some schedule changes on my end and was great about giving Cheeki her medications. She even offered to pick up more food when she noticed I was running low, which was so thoughtful. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay. Aly was always quick to respond and kept me updated without me having to ask. Most importantly, I felt like Cheeki was genuinely cared for and treated like part of the family. I’m so grateful for everything Aly did and would absolutely trust her with Cheeki again. Thank you, Aly!
Second time boarding my dog with Jennifer, and so glad I did! I got pictures and updates every day, Jennifer followed all the instructions for my dog's medication and daily grooming, and it was super clear that my dog was happy and well looked after. Thanks to Jennifer and her family for another great experience!!
Frankie (Shi) always takes such good care of Lucy! He's home with her most of the time and she loves playing with his kids and dog (Jealous). She always comes back happy, CLEARLY LOVED, and clean! I'm never worried about her getting the right food and meds. Despite watching my difficult breed (Belgian Malinois), he knows the right things to do and will put her first turning down sittings if there's even a change of an issue. Plus, I love getting his pictures and daily updates. All in all, I never have to worry about Lucy when I'm away. Highly recommend!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Oakton on Rover is $64.38 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 7,347 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Oakton. 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.
94% of Oakton 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 Oakton 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 Oakton 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 Oakton.
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 Oakton 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 VA 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.
