“Shi Ming (aka Frankie) was excellent in every respect! He responded to my very late request within seconds and remained conscientious and diligent about Micha’s care throughout her stay. He sent me texts and photos each day and provided me with an assessment as to how Micha was acclimating to her new surroundings. I will definitely request Shi Ming’s services again in the future.”

“Maren and her family provided excellent care for our dogs- a large mix and a senior beagle (and the peculiarities that come with an older hound- 2x daily pills, frequent potty breaks). Maren is very kind and thoughtful; I felt completely comfortable leaving my dogs in her care while we were out of town. Maren sent photos daily. My dogs had a great weekend with Maren and her family!”

“Quincy had a great week with Michelle and her family, including Cinnamon. Quincy was taking medications and recovering from leg surgery. Michelle cared for him the way I would have. This was our first stay with Michelle and we will definitely stay with her again.”


“Rachel was just amazing for my dog's first boarding experience. I really appreciated her awareness of safety issues (vaccinations, the current dog influenza issue, dog behavior). Her experience and knowledge with dogs really showed. My dog came home better behaved than ever! I also appreciated her flexibility, quick response time, and the many photos and videos she sent daily. Very highly recommend!”

“Awesome, awesome dog boarding experience!! Cindy was very responsive, took excellent care of our 8 week old puppy, Blaze. She treated Blaze very kindly, took him on frequent potty breaks, walks. Moreover Blaze had an issue that arose while she was taking care of him. She knew exactly what to do, resolved the issue promptly after notifying me. She’s the best. Cindy also kept me updated the whole time with text and beautiful pics. Definitely will rebook with her!”

“Sujan and family did a wonderful job taking care of our three dogs. They came back happy and rested. Sujan was so good about sending several pictures daily, which I appreciated so much. Also was so helpful with a last minute change of plans. It’s so nice to have a home to take our pups to (one of which is a very old poodle) and know they’re getting great care. Thank you so much, Sujan!”


“Helena and Nathan were good communicators, sent photos and were flexible for Bruno's stay. They accepted our last minute request and also helped get his medication from the vet when we were out of town. Would recommend. Bruno seemed to have enjoyed his stay at the house with other dogs.”

“Our dog, Pickle, was right at home with Sam and his dog. They all welcomed him. Sam has a good understanding of animals and is attentive to their needs. I highly recommend Sam and I would definitely like to arrange future stays for our dog with him!”

“Nalleli and her family took wonderful care of our 15 yr old dog, Kiki. She was loved, had lots of cuddles and snacks and was very happy at Nalleli. I appreciate the care that Nalleli provided and look forward to booking her again to look after our pup when we’re away.”

“I can’t say enough good things about the care my 12-year-old baby Dharma received! Leaving an older dog behind is never easy, but from the moment we connected, I knew Dharma would be in loving hands. Mei was incredibly attentive, patient, and truly treated Dharma like part of the family. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Dharma came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves dogs and understands the needs of senior pups, Mei is the one. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my girl!”

“Carlos went above and beyond in the care and love he provided my dogs. They were regularly walked throughout the day and enjoyed their time with his dog, Sasha. He sent me many, many photos and videos showing them eating heartily, walking the sidewalks, and sleeping soundly. I highly recommend Carlod to others. You will have peace of mind.”

“Mariel was fantastic. We knew our Minnie was in good hands. We received daily pictures and updates showing us how quickly Minnie settled in to her routine at their house. We knew she was being showered with love while we were away. Awesome experience! We would highly recommend Mariel as a pet sitter.”

“Jose took great care of Oliver during his weekend stay! He was very flexible with drop off and pick up times, and shared great photos and videos throughout the stay! His home is clean and communication was quick. Thank you!”

“Carrie and Matthew truly care about the pets they sit. It was clear from the photos they sent us along with substantive communication during the stay as well as the very happy mood of our dog when we picked her up. 10/10 recommend!”

“Denise was awesome and super flexible. She was able to take daisy last minute and was convenient for drop off and pick up, even after airport trouble changed my plans. She sent adorable pictures and made me feel completely at ease. Will definitely use 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!

This was my first time having a non family member take care of my 16 year old dog. I found Suzi on Rover and felt comfortable with the reviews showcasing how great Suzi was with other senior dogs. Once I reached out to her and I got to visit her and get to know her as a person and her caretaking experience I knew I had found the right person to care for my dog for a long weekend trip. My dog felt right at home as soon as she arrived to Suzi's house and from then on she received only love and the best care. I got daily texts from Suzi telling me how things were going which helped me feel comfortable and enjoy my trip more. Suzi was 100 percent focused on meeting my senior dog's needs and medical limitations. I plan to continue using her caretaking services many more times. I feel very lucky to have found her.

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!!

Bruno loved staying with Tanja! She was very communicative and responsible, and made sure to make him feel at home. We appreciated all the walks he got and the daily pictures. He even got sick while in her care and she gave him a special diet and tended to him, which we so appreciate. We always felt he was in good hands, and he was so happy he almost wouldn’t come home. Will be our first choice for boarding in the future :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet 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 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 7,538 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.
