About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. I love to be outdoors and take pups for walks and exploring ! I live in a neighborhood perfect for walks with a fenced in back yard. I love every dog like my own. I also had cats growing up both indoor and outdoors. I have experience administering medicine as well. I am currently doing Rover full-time so my schedule is open to care for your loved ones! I am available for multiple check ins during the day. I have a fenced in yard and I am able to keep dogs overnight. I would also love to house sit or walk your dog in your home! Walks would be at least 30 minutes and visits would be filled with lots of love!

About: I’ve loved and worked with dogs for years, and I’m dedicated to giving them the care and attention they need. I pay close attention to each dog’s unique personality and follow their owner’s instructions to a T. I understand the signs of their needs—whether it’s playtime, rest, or comfort—and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and right at home. I work part-time, giving me plenty of flexibility to care for pets. I can dedicate quality time each day to walks, play, and keeping them happy. I love to create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I follow routines closely, supervise play, and give each pet plenty of love and attention.

About: Hi! My name is Megan, and I recently moved to the San Diego area from New Hampshire. Before moving here, I spent several years in Hawaii, where I earned both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Finance. I come from a big family and have always been surrounded by animals, caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors over the years. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and providing them with the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. I work remotely on East Coast hours (5 AM–2 PM), which gives me great flexibility throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship. Because I work from home, I can provide plenty of supervision and attention to help pets feel comfortable and cared for. I'm dependable, responsible, and caring, and I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in good hands. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, pet sitting, or house sitting, I'd love the opportunity to care for your pets and give you peace of mind while you're away. I work full-time remotely Monday through Friday on East Coast hours (5 AM–2 PM PST), which allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship. I am available for house sitting and pet sitting during the week and on weekends, provided there is reliable WiFi access for my work computer. Because I work from home, I can provide a high level of supervision and ensure your pets receive plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m happy to schedule a meet-and-greet or FaceTime call before booking to answer any questions and discuss your pet’s specific routine and needs. I do not have any pets or children of my own at home, so your pet will get my full attention in a safe, welcoming environment. I’m excited to meet your pet and make sure they feel right at home while you’re away!

About: When I’m not fostering pups, I’m caring for dogs through Rover! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love giving them the care, attention, and patience they deserve. Whether your dog is a playful puppy or a sweet senior, I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I take the time to get to know each pup’s unique needs and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I have an extremely flexible schedule and will be with your pup 24/7. I am available weekdays and weekends and can accommodate to your schedule if needed! I have a fenced in small back yard, but many walking paths and parks near by! We do not have any other pets in the household, so your pup will be receiving one on one care while in a calm and relaxing environment.

Kimberly is super sweet and responsive. She updated me with text and sent me a video of my dog Lila snuggling with her on the couch. It was my first leaving Lila with someone so the text and videos really helped put me at ease. I would definitely recommend Kimberly to anyone looking for a good sitter.

Absolutely loved having Danielle and Austin watch my pup! She kept me updated with lots of pictures and shared all the fun activities they did, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was also incredibly flexible with timing and so accommodating. I was visiting from out of town and needed a sitter for a wedding night. They were amazing in all ways esp with organizing everything and I appreciate them so much!!! And I really appreciate her dealing with my anxious butt and reassuring me along the way 😂💕 I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely book with her again if traveling down to Oceanside again! Thank you:)

Aubrey was great with my two little chihuahuas! And her Ripley was a great host as well. Aubrey was very flexible and understanding and was not deterred at all by my elderly dog's medication needs and her nervous, old lady, chihuahua behaviors. I felt very comfortable having my two babies being cared for by Aubrey and Ripley. Will book again!

Alexis was amazing with our Hyper Aussie puppy. He can be a handful with all of his energy but Alexis gave him alot of excercise and play time. She took him to the dog park everyday. She also provided us with advice for bedtime as it is something we have struggled with at home. She is very knowledgable and kind. We will definitely be using her again!!

I just felt like Finn was in great hands and that allowed me to enjoy my trip! Thank you so much. Highly recommend Maddie and her family.

Sara is the best rover I could’ve asked for. She took me in last minute, and made sure I was well updated on my dog. She walked her, took lots of pictures for me, and even tended to Lexi’s allergies without me asking her to. I could tell when I picked her up that she had been well taken care of. 10/10 recommend!

Landin, Alex, and their puppy Lola were amazing! From the first time I met them, I knew my dog would be in great hands. My dog can be nervous in unknown homes and situations, and they were super understanding about doing a meet and greet at their place to let her become familiar with their home. Her communication from the first day and throughout the whole stay was great, including sending lots of pictures and keeping me updated throughout, which I loved! I would recommend them to anyone, and will definitely use them again

FAQs for Boarding - Oceanside

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Oceanside on Rover is $48.71 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 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 September 2026, there are 3,113 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Oceanside. 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.

95% of Oceanside 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 Oceanside 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 Oceanside 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 Oceanside.

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 Oceanside 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 CA 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.
