“Aly took such good care of Duffy! She provided us daily updates and photos of him. We can tell he had a great time with Aly! We’re so glad to found such a trustworthy babysitter for Duffy!”

“Katherine has been the absolute best for watching my baby! She takes such good care of him and sticks to his extra care needs. I love that she provides pictures and updates each day! Hes always so happy and comfortable when I arrive to pick him up!”

“We highly recommend Erika! We started with a meet-and-greet, and both Wishbone and Jack warmed up to her immediately. Wishbone is usually very shy with new people, but he felt safe enough to sniff her and lick her leg right away. They just finished an overnight boarding stay at her house, and it was a wonderful experience. Erika kept her promise and sent us photo and video updates, which gave us great peace of mind. Both dogs looked completely relaxed and happy when we picked them up. We will definitely be booking Erika for boarding again”
“Look no further than Shelley because she is THE BEST!! Our dog has complex health issues that require a very strict diet and several medications every 8 hours (pills & oral injections). Not only did Shelley handle it all flawlessly but he absolutely LOVED her - our pup had the time of his life! The way she interacted with him was so positive & uplifting and honestly inspired me as a dog parent. Her hilarious videos made our days and eased our anxiety knowing he was so happy with her and in loving, capable hands. We are so grateful and lucky we found Shelley!! Thank you Shelley!! We love you Shelley!!”

“Jason and Becky took care of our pet Cocoa for 9 days. They were reliable, professional, and clearly passionate about caring for pets. . From the initial meeting, they took time to understand our pet’s routine, dietary needs, and personality, which gave us great confidence while we were away. They provided regular updates, including photos and messages, which reassured us that Cocoa was happy and well cared for. Our pet seemed comfortable and relaxed when we returned, which speaks volumes about the level of care and attention provided. We have decided to leave Cocoa with them when we travel next time. Thank you Jason and Becky.”

“Victoria was amazing with our English Mastiff! She was super friendly, gave daily updates with pictures, and made our big guy feel right at home. It’s not easy finding someone great with giant breeds, but she exceeded all expectations. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”

“Ruidi took wonderful care of my pitbull mix Sunny. She sent lots of nice pictures during the stay, and she took the time to cook yummy chicken and broccoli for Sunny to enjoy. Sunny usually eats dog food. So I'm sure this was a lovely vacation for her. Ruidi is a loving and caring dogsitter, and I would recommend her!”


“We were so happy with our experience with Helena and Nathan! After another Rover cancelled on us last minute, they fit us in and truly saved the day! Their yard was amazing - especially for our 95 lb mutt who just loves to run. And our little old man loved the cozy beds around the house. They sent pics and videos every day and our boys came back happy and healthy. As a bonus, while we have noticed our dogs often come back from Rovers smelling like a kennel, after a weekend with Helena and Nathan they came back smelling great!”

“Kristi and Drew take such good care of our dog! They treat her like she’s one of the family, and I never have to worry about anything while we’re on vacation. I highly recommend them!”

“José was very careful to make sure he learned what Hazel liked and needed. He and his family provided a very calm and loving home for my anxious dog. The stay worked out well.”

“Poornima took excellent care of Lilly, as she was very happy and healthy when we brought her home! We were so happy to receive regular updates while we were on vacation. We'll definitely be using Poornima again!”

“Na-yong K. was responsive and very considerate when caring for our dog, Haru. He had a wonderful time walking around her house and playing with her. We would gladly ask her to watch Haru again.”

“Priscilla was absolutely amazing with our Chihuahua, Peanut! From the moment we met her, she made us feel comfortable and confident that Peanut would be in great hands. Leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, but she made the entire experience so easy and reassuring. She sent us thoughtful updates every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Peanut and took the time to get to know his personality and needs. She was incredibly gentle, patient, and attentive with him, and her knowledge and experience really showed throughout his stay. We truly appreciate the love and care she gave Peanut, and we’re so grateful to have found someone we can completely trust. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Priscilla again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you so much, Priscilla!”

“Mariel and her family were lovely. We received daily updates with pictures and videos. They took Remy on all sorts of fun adventures, entertained him with new toys and gave him lots of snuggles. Our pup is our baby and we would happily use Mariel again in the future.”

“Hoa is an amazing caretaker. Her passion for caring for senior dogs is evident. She is conscientious, responsive, and timely, and was diligent in administering medication to my dog as requested. She also kept Hallie active, providing plenty of walks and outdoor activity. I would be happy to use Hoa’s services again.”


“Gail was very accommodating to our schedule. She sent multiple updates throughout the day which put our mind at ease. Casper loved cozying up to her and he had a great time during his stay. We would definitely use Gail again.”

“We had the best experience with Denise! She is great with dogs and approaches animal care thoughtfully and with compassion. She has a nice, spacious yard and sent frequent updates. We highly recommend her for your boarding needs!”

“Repeat customer for doggy day care, but this was Mocha's first time boarding ever! LaurieBeth as always made Mocha feel right at home and sent me updates / pictures throughout the day. I know Mocha is safe and sound when she stays with LaurieBeth. I also appreciate her patience with Mocha as we continue to work on her reactivity and obedience training.”

Jorge & Alejandra, were fantastic with our dog, Hazelnut, while we were away! They sent daily photo updates and followed our exact feeding and walking routine. When we came home, Hazel was happy, relaxed, and well-cared for. We will definitely book Jorge & Alejandra, again!"

Brianna was super kind and patient w/ pup. He takes a long time to adjust to new environments and can be anxious, and there were some challenges but Brianna was always reassuring that it was ok and she handled it well. She sent plenty of pictures and videos and gave daily updates. I recommend her services to anyone looking for a sitter.

Shelley is an excellent caretaker. She is very caring, kind, gentle, and really knows how to take care of dogs. I have a very finicky eater Maltese who is also somewhat anxious when he is boarded, but he always comes back to us happy after the boarding. She communicates with us constantly and updates us on how he is doing, eating, etc. We would drive many miles if we have to, to place our dog with her for our travels - she's that much worth it for us! Thanks for everything, Shelley! All 5 Stars!

We boarded our dog Kuma with Solomon and he was very attentive. Asked a ton of great questions and made sure Kuma was very comfortable. Sent us pictures and video updates everyday, along with how he was doing. We felt very relaxed and worry free while we were away. Highly recommend, amazing sitter!

Kaitlin and Yung were wonderful and took such good care of our pup Minnie! We were visiting the area from out of town and brought our pup with us, but needed a place for her to stay nearby. They were very communicative and kindly flexible when we had some unforeseen extra traffic on our way in. We’ll definitely book with them next time we’re in the area!

Aly was AMAZING with my dogs. I haven’t left them with a sitter in two years so I was incredibly anxious about leaving, but they settled right in and couldn’t have been happier. I forgot to pack a couple of things for them but she was able to provide those things last minute which I was so thankful for, and sent pictures and updates throughout the day everyday we were gone. Will DEFINITELY book again :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Oakton on Rover is $59.91 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 7,520 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Oakton. About 91% of Oakton 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. 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.
