“Nachay did a wonderful job caring for my dog! She kept me updated throughout the stay with lots of photos, which I really appreciated—it made me feel comfortable knowing my dog was happy and well cared for. Communication was smooth and consistent, and she was very easy to work with from start to finish. My dog came home relaxed and clearly well looked after. I would definitely book with Nachay again and highly recommend her!”
“My Claire stayed with Samantha. She gave Claire space to settle down and get comfortable in a environment that was not home. I felt at ease leaving Claire with Samantha. I received pictures even it though it was slightly over a 24 stay. I would totally recommend Samantha!”
About: I believe that pets need individualized attention and needs. I ensure that senior pets receive the gentle care and attention they need, whether it's administering medication or simply providing companionship. I'm also attentive to each pet's individual needs and personalities, which helps create a comfortable and loving environment for them. This combination of skills allows me to cater to a wide range of pets and ensure they feel secure and happy while in my care. If you have any specific questions or would like to know more, feel free to ask. I am currently doing this full time so your pet will have my undivided attention. I will be able to take them for walks, play in my enclosed backyard and make sure all theirs needs are taken cared of. I have a fenced in yard. I have an entire home where your pet will be able to roam freely around and find there spot!
“Narly was an incredible host for our two pups, Brady and Lola. While away she sent us photos daily. I would definitely use her again when needed. We feel very lucky to have found her. Thank you Narly!”
“Stephanie was amazing during Truffles stay. She was a life saver taking Truffle in over the holidays and welcoming him to her family for Christmas. Could not recommend Stephanie more!”
“Was wonderful about updating us and sending photos while we were gone! Alfred and Rex looked like they got a good amount of time outside playing under supervision, were so thankful for Michael! He even monitored an injured claw for us that seemed to heal wonderfully. We were gone for two weeks and this was convenient for flying out of JFK if that’s part of your plans.”
“Pamela took the best care of our pup, Thor! She cared for him for 1 week. She kept him active with multiple walks a day and even shared her pup’s healthy snacks with Thor. Pamela kept me updated throughout the day with videos and pictures. I 100% recommend her and will be using her in the future. Thank you Pam! - Thor misses you already 😁”
“Nilka is a treasure. She is extremely loving to animals, showers them with attention and walks and very communicative, sending photos and updates. Boarding with Nilka is a vacation for your pooch. Highly recommended! I will use her every time she's available.”
“Not sure how to describe finding someone as responsible as Nieves to watch your pupp and feeling a sense of relief when away for a few days. This was our first time using Rover and we are glad we found Nieves on it. She kept us updated throughout our trip and our Cody looked as happy as can be. Couldn’t recommend her enough and she’s local to us which is awesome for us :)”
“Chris communicated well, was flexible with time, and gave timely updates with videos. Wonderful caretaker and my pup came back very happy. Thanks so much Chris!”
“Truly exceptional care. Denise was very friendly. I picked up the dogs they were energetic and happy. Some minor changes to our vacation schedule were accommodated without issue. Highly recommended !!!!”
“Jonathan was a pleasure to work with and took great care of my 80 pound Bouvier, Cruz. She can be a bit stubborn and he had no problems handling her. He sent lots of pics and videos and was quick and easy to get in touch with. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.”
“Our 2 pitbulls, Bully and Jada had a great weekend stay with Judith! Our plans for a pet sitter fell through the day we were due to fly out of town, and Judith quickly came to the rescue! We really appreciated the daily updates and pictures she sent us of our pups. We were able to enjoy a nice vacation knowing they were well taken care of and being shown constant love and attention. She even took them to play in the park, one of their favorite hobbies! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She is very experienced and a true animal lover.”
“Maria is amazing! She communicated and provided pictures. She never made me feel like a bother no matter how many times I reached out. Will definitely book her again”
“Alex was so awesome! Our 6 month old puppy came home happy a girl. He was easy to work and communicate with. We appreciated the updates throughout the day (with cute pics and videos). Would definitely use him again!”
“Super caring and considerate. She took such good care of my pup and was very attentive and friendly. She sent regular pictures and videos and I knew my dog was happy eating and well taken care of”
“I am so glad to have found Xiaoying. She is excellent, experienced and knowledgeable. My dog was well cared for during his 6 day stay. We were updated daily with pics and videos of meal times, backyard activity and daily walking. She sure did treat my dog as her own and made her home, home for my Teddy. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much! 🩵🫶🏼”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Oceanside
Ivana was wonderful with Sunny. She is very caring, patient, understanding, and has a very calm, relaxed demeanor that made us feel comfortable right away. Sunny showed some separation anxiety on the first day, and Ivana was extremely patient with her and gave her the time she needed to settle in and feel comfortable. Ivana also did a great job keeping us updated with messages and pictures throughout Sunny’s stay, which really helped put our minds at ease while we were away. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about Sunny and wanted her to feel safe and happy. We felt very comfortable leaving Sunny in her care and would definitely use Ivana again. Highly recommended!
This is our second time booking Alex and our review remains the same. Our anxiety was significantly less this time around lol. Our Leo was in the best care and introduced to new fur friends. We couldn’t be happier with the accommodations! Thank you Alex for taking care of Leo and being so generous with sharing diet tips and allowing Leo to share healthy raw meals with Bourbon (his dog.) Will be booking again soon!
It was our first time ever leaving our dog with a sitter. We were very nervous about it, but Sonia and her family made sure to send us videos and photos of her every day and constantly kept us updated on the well being of our Ginger! They welcomed her with open arms and made her feel right at home immediately . Thank you so much for taking such great care of our baby!
We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! From the moment we met her, we felt completely comfortable leaving our fur baby in her care. She was reliable, attentive, and genuinely loving. We received regular updates and photos which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Thank you, Grace!
Stephanie is an incredible pet sitter! We are so grateful to her for taking such great care of our dog (1 year, 8 months old) for a weekend stay. We have a high-energy dog who requires a lot of attention (e.g., play time/soccer in the backyard and walks) - Stephanie truly went above and beyond for our dog. Stephanie also constantly checked in with multiple photos every day (during the weekend stay), provided updates, and followed our detailed instructions. We can tell our dog enjoyed his time with Stephanie as well! Thank you very much to Stephanie for being a kind-hearted, loving, attentive, reliable, and wonderful dog sitter!
Shushma and her family are amazing! She saved me during the last snow storm when the person meant to watch Haddie couldn’t get home due to flight cancellations and it was absolutely meant to be. She provided lots of updates and it was clear the family and their dogs had completely embraced Haddie as one of their own.
This was Rory’s second stay with Julie. Julie is amazing! Rory had such a good time her first stay she dragged me to Julie’s door on our second visit. Julie is very caring and Rory got plenty of playtime outdoors in Julie’s fenced in yard. Julie is a pleasure to work with, very flexible, and Rory will definitely come back.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Oceanside on Rover is $58.85 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 13,272 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 NY 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.
