“I would give them 10 stars if I could! James and his wife are exceptional care-givers! They sent pictures several times during the day and evening, as well as updates on how Molli was doing. Our flight got delayed and we had to pick Molli up later than expected, but they were so accommodating. Any time we need to make arrangements for Molli in the future, James will be the first person we contact.”
“Briana and her family are the best. I always feel safe leaving out sweet boy at their beautiful home. She understands pups and their quirks and always keeps us updated with his care. Briana is always our first choice of care. Thank you Briana and family. Chaucer loves you guys and so do we!”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Krystale! She took such amazing care of Chi-Chi and truly gave me peace of mind while I was away. Being that Chi-Chi is a senior dog, I’m very particular about who I trust with her, and Krystale exceeded my expectations. She was patient, attentive, loving, and treated Chi-Chi like she was her own. I could tell Chi-Chi felt safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for, which meant everything to me. ❤️ Krystale is truly a gem, and I’m so grateful to have found her! I would absolutely trust her with Chi-Chi again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and amazing with their fur baby. **10/10 — highly recommend!** 🐾❤️”
“We really enjoyed Joey! He and his wife are the most precious people!! Very inviting and warm. I love how they treated Harley and I could tell they are experienced. I read other reviews that Joey can even teach your dog certain training techniques and sure enough....our dog does better with walking on a leash! I will definitely use Joey again!! ?”
“We had such an amazing experience with this couple boarding my golden doodle, Parker! They kept me informed throughout his stay, maintained a schedule for him, and truly treated him like one of their own pets. I was beyond pleased with the level of care, professionalism, and love they showed him. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. I would not hesitate to trust them with Parker again and again.”
“Words can not express how AMAZING Kimora is! She is attentive, responsive, accommodating and absolutely reassuring. She allowed myself and my pup to be comfortable under her care, so much so, she even asked about my dog’s sleeping arrangements. She placed my pup in her room for naps and bedtime. I emphasize this as I have seen some pet sitters would keep your pet in an outside, uncomfortable area. I can’t stress enough that Kimora is truly the best who radiates positivity and kindness. I will most definitely continue to choose Kimora, every time!”
“Denise did a wonderful job watching my dog. She made sure she was well adjusted to the other dogs in her care. She got a lot of exercise especially since she is a very active dog. Denise also kept me updated with pictures daily. I would definitely send my dog to her again.”
“Alex and Ash did amazing with my Australian Shepherd. They are very knowledgeable about dogs, they even knew a lot of stuff about my dogs particular breed. Zuko has social anxiety so I’m always worried if he misbehaves when he’s away and they did an amazing job comforting him. Ash is also a sick groomer and my dog has never looked cleaner.”
“Jahzavya did a wonderful job taking care of Fuego! He was responsive, flexible, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. I felt comfortable knowing Fuego was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Jahzavya and would gladly book with him again!”
“This was my first boarding experience . John/ family kept me updated daily wilth text and pics of the good and not so good (1st period and slight appetite) Very pleased with the service. Will definitely book again.”
“I am extremely pleased with the care provided by Tavia. She constantly updated me and send a plethora and pictures and videos. I can tell my dog was in Good hands. I appreciate that she had a huge yard for Venus to run around and play in and also that her dog played well with mine. I will definitely be booking Tavia again.”
“Karen and her family are AMAZING! They’ve watched our golden retriever puppy before and this time we returned and added our older, much more timid dog, who has never been comfortable anywhere outside our home, and even typically goes on eating strikes when we leave town. With Karen and her family, both dogs were happy, playing, and eating every day! They were so kind and sent lots of updates showing just how much fun our dogs were having! We’ll definitely be returning!”
“Skye was great! They were so loving to my big bulldog pit mix. They gave him lots of exercise and kept me updated often. Her home was very clean and equipped to take care of a big dog. Would definitely book with her over petsmart any day.”
“This was our dog’s first time being away from us and Crystal did an awesome job. We received several photos and videos, which my kids loved to watch. Will definitely book again.”
“Yunju and her partner were the best dog sitters I could’ve hoped for. She sent me photos, videos, and updates multiple times throughout the day of their walks, meals and hang time and made sure our dog was loved on and cared for! She is very kind, super communicative, and fast to respond. She lives in a safe gated community with a dog park nearby. I would 100% recommend Yunju to anyone looking for fun and reliable pet care. Will definitely be booking with her again!”

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Oxford can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Oxford 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 Oxford.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oxford. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Oxford 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 GA 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
