“We had a wonderful experience and would give more than 5 stars if we could! Our dog was so comfortable and happy during her stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout our trip - we received regular updates and felt confident that our dog was well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and provide a safe, welcoming environment. We would happily book with them again and highly recommend to other pet parents!”
“Our babies were with Jen and Steph (and sweet Lexi!) for 11 days while we were out of town. From the pictures and videos they sent I could tell they had a wonderful time, were well taken care of, and had all the love and comforts of home. We will definitely be repeat customers!”
“We were very happy with Steph and it seemed our dog was happy too. She followed our feeding instructions and made sure he had 2 walks a day and got to play fetch in her backyard. I really liked the way Steph stated in touch with us through photos of our dog and comments on how he was doing. We highly recommend Step for a dog sitter . Thank you Steph”
“Mario is an amazing pet caregiver. Pixie always comes back home happy. Whenever we plan for vacations or family visits we are assured that Pixie is in good hands. Pixie is an elderly dog and Mario is always kind to her.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for over 36 years. I have cared for dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, senior pets, and rescue animals throughout my life. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they are away. I currently have four adopted cats and have spent years helping care for neighborhood cats and kittens. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personality traits, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I am patient, dependable, and attentive to routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and companionship. Whether your pet loves to play or simply wants a calm and caring presence, I will treat them like one of my own family members Pet care is already a part of my daily routine. I currently care for my own pets and regularly feed and monitor neighborhood cats and kittens. I have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable care, walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the week. I understand the importance of consistency and will make sure your pets stay comfortable and on their normal routine while you're away. Your pet's safety and well-being will always be my top priority. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special requests from pet owners. I take the time to earn each pet's trust and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. Whether caring for pets in my client's home or during walks and drop-in visits, I provide attentive supervision, plenty of affection, and regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while they are away
“Cande is an amazing dog sitter. All of her 5 star reviews don’t lie. She really loves these doggies and has taken exceptional care of mine. The pics and videos were heart warming. Thank you Cande!!”
“Sheena took such good care of Mango. She went above and beyond most Rover hosts we have asked to take care of Mango in the past. She sent us so many videos and photos of Mango to us. Our Mango loved her kids and really enjoyed her time with them. In addition, it was a rainy day and Sheena washed and dried Mango’s sweater and also made sure Mango was dry from the rain. Would highly recommend and would book again.”
“Noemi was very good with Buster. He was in good hands with Noemi. I got frequent updates, and he got all the loving and care he needed. And as an added bonus, Noemi recommended a taco place near by that was a superb recommendation”
About: I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had pets, and I've spent my life caring for both dogs and cats. I currently have cats of my own, and although my beloved dogs have passed, my love for animals has never changed. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I'll provide the same patience, affection, and dependable care that I'd want for my own pets. Caring for animals has been part of my life since I was a child. I currently care for my cats and have years of experience with both dogs and cats. I understand that every pet has its own routine and personality, and I enjoy providing playtime, affection, and dependable care so owners can have peace of mind while they're away. I'm a full-time special education teacher, and my husband is also a lifelong animal lover who is home during the day. While I will always be your pet's primary caregiver and point of contact, having another caring adult in the home means your pet will enjoy extra companionship, attention, and a safe, loving environment. I provide a safe, clean, and loving home where pets are treated like family. I have a fully fenced front and backyard, giving dogs plenty of space to play and explore safely under supervision. I also have a nearby park, perfect for walks and extra exercise. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, rest, and any special instructions you provide. My goal is to help every pet feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you're away, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they're in good hands.
“Lorri took good care of my boy and I could tell from the photos and videos she sent me that he was having a great time while making new furry friends. I finally found the kind of petsitter that gives me peace of mind and doesn't make me feel guilty about going on weekend getaways without my best friend.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Annette! She took amazing care of our sweet baby Kenji over the weekend. From the start, she made us feel completely at ease with frequent updates, photos, and videos. She truly went the extra mile to make sure Kenji felt comfortable, safe, and loved while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Stef and Matt took such good care of my pup! They sent lots of photos and made her feel at home. It’s clear they love their dogs and I’m grateful to have found them! Will definitely book with them again :)”
About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life I currently have two dogs a cat 4 parakeets 4 love birds a hamster and a fish. I'm an animal lover I currently work from home caring for a special needs sister. I'm free throughout the day and evening. I have a very open schedule and love to walk. I have a fenced front yard, the fence is cement and 5 feet high. I let my own pets out there and there are never any problems.
“We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Julie and Scott! I highly recommend them, and we're so grateful to have found them. We reached out for a last-minute dog sitter over the holidays for our 8-year-old small terrier mix, Zazu. Zazu can be a little bossy and defensive with other dogs, which we gave them a heads up about since they have a big dog at home. Julie and Scott did an AMAZING job integrating Zazu into their home life and making her feel comfortable with them and their sweet dog, Snacks. They sent lots of wonderful photos, videos, and updates - including videos of Zazu playing happily with Snacks! Julie and Scott are both so friendly and warm, it's no surprise that Zazu felt comfortable with them immediately. They took her on many walks and let her cuddle with them in bed to sleep at night. My wife and I joked that Zazu wasn't going to want to come home at the end of the stay. We are so relieved and excited to have found them, and will 1,000% be reaching out to them for our next dog sitting need.”
“Ellen was fantastic, she responded promptly and was flexible with my schedule. She took great care of my cat Nalla while I was away. She even had a whole room set up for cats to play and hangout. I would definitely recommend her for all your pet care needs.thanks again Ellen!”

“Catherine took care of my senior dog Lovie this weekend while I was out of town for a funeral. She immediately made me feel comfortable leaving my little girl with her during this emotional time. She sent me pictures while I was gone, of my doggie on a walk and also of her sleeping peacefully. I would absolutely use her services again and will the next time I need it. I highly recommend her.”

We couldn't be happier with the care Skilly received! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands.

Stitch was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved during his stay. I highly recommend Alynette to anyone looking for trustworthy and exceptional pet care, and I will definitely be returning again in the future!
Gretchen was wonderful! She watched our cat and dog while we backpacked the Channel Islands. She sent us updates and pictures of them while we were away, and we felt so relaxed knowing they were in a loving home. She walked our high energy husky multiple times a day, which was so great, and she gave genuine love and attention to both our girls. Very grateful for her and will definitely use her services again if we are back in the area! Thank you, again, Gretchen!
Peggy and her family were amazing! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience for a little dog. We could relax and enjoy our vacation. I know he was well cared for. We got regular daily updates with photos and sometimes videos which we enjoyed. Would definitely hope she would be availableto leave our dog with her again next time we are out of town.
Layla took great care of our dog, Maya! She's super easy to communicate with, was receptive to our care requests and provided updates with pics during the stay, which was very important to us when we're away to give us peace of mind :) Will rebook with Layla in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Oxnard on Rover is $42.8 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 1,027 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Oxnard. 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.
96% of Oxnard 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 Oxnard 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 Oxnard 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 Oxnard.
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 Oxnard 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.
