About: Ive been caring for dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. I’ve always had multiple dogs in the house at a time. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from big to small, Seniors to puppies. I provide daily photos throughout your pets daily routine and tons of love I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of enough time to care for your fur baby. I believe all animals should be treated like they are you own even if they are temporary I live in a quiet cozy apartment with a big yard in the back. There is plenty of room for playtime and resting. Pets are welcome on all furniture
“Lori was absolutely AMAZING. This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous. Lori maintained constant communication and sent pictures and videos throughout Chuck’s stay. Chuck had a great time with the other dogs and we will definitely use Lori in the future! Thank you so much, Lori ?”


“Bianca was fantastic!! From the get go she made Bailey feel welcome, comfortable and loved! She is a genuine pet lover! Bianca was accommodating to our asks re Baileys rules, super communicative kept us updated during his stay and we could tell he was happy. Bianca has a great space and set up for the doggies. I would totally recommend and would def book again. Thank you Bianca and Family!”

About: I have grown up with dogs and now I have 3 of my own! I have a pug, and 2 basset hounds. I'm experienced in all size dogs. (I previously had 2 english mastiffs that crossed the rainbow bridge) I also have chickens and ducks. I worked at a retirement community for years.. so I'm understanding and kind towards our wiser elders who made need help with their furbabies. I'm a homemaker so I'm almost always available for your pet care needs. I'm available to sit and play with them to your hearts comfort. All 3 of my dogs are inside dogs who sleep in bed with me. 🤣 Furbabies are like children to me. I truly believe they have souls and they deserve all the love in the world.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! They welcomed our pup for a last-minute weekend stay and gave him such a comfortable, happy place to settle in. Their dog was a wonderful playmate, and the frequent updates and lots of photos made it easy to relax knowing he was having a great time. They were communicative throughout and incredibly accommodating as our schedule kept changing. We’re so grateful for the care and flexibility, and would happily book with them again. Highly recommend!”

“James was fantastic with Lenny. We did a meet and greet so Lenny could get accustomed to the house. James has an amazing backyard and played lots of fetch with Lenny. We received lots of photos and updates, and Lenny came home happy and tired (and a little sad about having to leave James’ house). We absolutely would book with James again!”

“Laura was awesome! Chacco had a blast during his weekend sleepover and loved hanging out with the other pups. She took great care of him, and I felt totally at ease knowing he was in good hands. He came home happy and tired—always a good sign! Definitely booking with her again.”

“We called Bianca a few hours if that prior to a spontaneous trip. She graciously accepted and took care of our dog wonderfully. Her daughter walked our dog and was great too! We will be contacting Bianca for any future trips! Highly recommended!”

“Mya cared for our dog (Harley) like she was her own! Harley has anxiety when we leave her but she was clean, calm and relaxed when we picked her back up. Mya sent us photos and communicated with us consistently while we were away so we felt at ease that our girl was well cared for in our absence. We will be booking with Mya again soon!”


About: experience, I’ve cared for everything from energetic Labradors and playful Border Collies to senior pups and anxious rescues. I’m experienced with daily walks, positive reinforcement training, medication administration, and creating calm routines for dogs of all ages and breeds. Every day starts with a calm morning walk, fresh breakfast, and playtime to kick off zoomies. Midday brings another energetic walk or backyard fun, plus training and cuddles. Evening includes dinner, a relaxing final walk, brushies, and wind-down time so your dog stays happy, safe, and right on routine. Your dog’s safety and your peace of mind come first. I use secure leashes, supervise constantly, follow your exact routines, and keep emergency contacts ready. You’ll receive real-time photo updates and detailed reports so you can trust your pup is happy, protected, and well cared for every single day.

“Elaine has been watching our special needs dog for several years. She is incredibly reliable, nurturing, and attentive. Hugo loves being in her home and we love knowing that he is receiving good care. We would highly recommend Elaine to others seeking care for their pups!”


About: I grew up with a small dog and have been a pet sitter for friends and family for just under 5 years. My husband grew up with 4 French bulldogs, although we do not have any special skills to train dogs we enjoy spending time with them. Pet care fits into our schedules on most weekends and some holidays. Our jobs limit us from having our own pets so we enjoy watching others during our time off. I will often be pet sitting with my husband as we live together. We care for pets by doing what’s instructed of us from their owners to keep their routine as close as possible in our home as it would be at theirs.
“Roxie had a great time with Jake and Melissa. They sent me pictures of her which made my day. I did not have to worry about her at all which is so nice when being on vacation. Would absolutely use them again!!”


“If you're looking for someone to care for your fur baby like their very own, look no further than Kristi — she is absolutely wonderful! I entrusted Kristi with my dog Maize, and I couldn't have made a better decision. Kristi didn't just watch Maize — she completely spoiled her! Maize had what I can only describe as a little mini vacation, and I think she may have enjoyed herself more than we did on our trip! What truly sets Kristi apart is how thoughtful and communicative she is. She kept us well informed throughout the entire stay, sending the most adorable pictures that gave us total peace of mind. There's nothing better than seeing your pup happy, comfortable, and clearly being showered with love while you're away. I highly recommend Kristi to anyone who wants their pet to be in the most caring, attentive hands possible. You'll leave knowing your fur baby is safe, loved, and maybe a little spoiled — and you'll actually be able to relax and enjoy your time away. We are so grateful for Kristi and will absolutely be booking with her again! 🐾”

“Aleah was great with our senior pup. She sent photos and communicated wonderfully. The house is clean and dogs are super friendly! We will be booking again! Thanks again!”

About: As a lifelong pet lover and pet owner of over 11 years, I understand that pets are family and deserve the same love, patience, and attention we give our own. While I'm new to Rover, I bring years of hands-on experience caring for pets, including senior dogs and raising and training my Doberman, Brody, over the past three years. As a full-time architect, I'm detail-oriented, organized, responsible, and a fast learner. I understand the importance of following instructions carefully, maintaining routines, and making sure every detail is accounted for. Whether your dog needs a leisurely walk, extra patience and care in their senior years, or simply a little extra love and attention while you're away, I'll do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I'm committed to being reliable, communicative, and respectful of your pet's individual needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I look forward to building that trust with every booking. I can't wait to meet you and your pup! I work full-time as an architect, but I'm happy to incorporate pet care into my daily routine! I'm available for walks and drop-in visits before my workday begins and during my lunch break, with additional availability outside of my regular 9–6 schedule depending on the day. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I live in a welcoming, family-oriented community with accessible walking paths and plenty of green space to explore and enjoy. It's a great environment for daily walks, fresh air, and outdoor adventures, not to mention it is walking distance to Quiet Waters Park, which includes a dog park/beach. My Doberman, Brody, is a friendly companion who may be able to keep your pup company, provided they're a good fit for one another. As an experienced pet owner, I understand that every dog has their own personality, boundaries, and comfort level, and I'll always prioritize their individual needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Oxford is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $65 per night. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 342 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Oxford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% 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, 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.
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 , 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 .
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 MD 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.
