“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. They made Skilly feel comfortable, loved, and right at home, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We received updates and could tell she was being treated like part of the family. When we picked her up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Skilly. We will absolutely be using your services again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Steph and Jen were amazing. This was Ollie’s 1st experience boarding at someone elses house. Ollie is a sweet but shy dog so didn’t know how he would react since we were gone for 5 days. He played well with Lexi and pictures of Olllie were sent daily. I am very satisfied and Ollie was well taken care of. I would have Steph and Jen watch Ollie in the future😊”
“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!”
“Mario was great! We needed a last minute dog sitter for our mini dachshund and he responded right away. He was kind and gave a quick recap when we picked up the dog. Highly recommend! Thank you, Mario!”
“Sheena was outstanding! Very communicative and took great care of our dog. Loved all of the photos she sent along the way. We felt very comfortable with her and our dog was happy when we arrived. If we need a sitter again, I will definitely see if she is available.”
“Steph was great! She kept us updated on how Finley was doing, and provided pictures of their walks and activities. I think Finley really enjoyed his time with Steph & Willow. We hope to use her again in the future.”
“Noemi took care of our sweet dog Eevie over Thanksgiving and she was sooo kind and loving to our girl! She kept us updated with pics/videos and Eevie seemed to have had the best time playing! Thank you Noemi for spoiling our girlie! 🤍🤍🤍”
“Our girl Jetta had the best time boarding with Lorri and her "pack". Excellent communication, frequent updates, and our pup gets so spoiled when she stays with Lorri. We highly recommend her, thank you!”
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
“It's always hard to find a dog sitter you can truly trust, especially after our longtime sitter moved out of state. Cande made the whole experience so much easier. She was kind, sent regular updates, and took wonderful care of my dog, Gus. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and she treated Gus like he was part of her own family. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Cande again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate dog sitter.”
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.
“Cat was great with my "Cat- Pete" I enjoyed the photos she sent me of him "Birdwatching". It really let me know he was having a vacation at her home, while we were on our vacation! I instantly felt her love for Pete the moment we arrived for our meet-up visit! I would recommend Cat to be your pet sitter too!”
“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!”
“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!”
About: I care for all types of pets equally. I'll walk, feed, clean, play, and care for your special pal. I'm intuitive to your animals' needs and am able to calm animals with both separation anxiety and general anxiety. I came to Rover because I love taking care of all pets and get a lot in return from taking care of them. Trust and communication is big and that's what I deliver. I care for them as if they were my own! I provide daily updates and photos while you're away. And choosing me I also respect your home and keep it in the same condition you leave it. Thank you for the consideration and hope to hear from you! Currently located on the Navy base in Port Hueneme with my husband. If boarding is needed, we would need to meet me just off base! I’ll always make sure your home is safe before leaving. If you prefer to crate your pets, I’ll make sure they get enough time out before leaving. Leashes are usually always on unless you have a fenced yard. I don’t mind having them in my car as well, they’ll always ride in the back seat with your permission!

We have a really anxious pup who is scared of strangers so we really appreciated Annette and her care! She gave daily updates along with pictures to reassure us and was patient and kind with our nervous pup. We will definitely be using her again for future stays :) Thanks again!
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. They made Skilly feel comfortable, loved, and right at home, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We received updates and could tell she was being treated like part of the family. When we picked her up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Skilly. We will absolutely be using your services again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
Alynette did an absolutely amazing job caring for and watching over my fur baby, Stitch. She was attentive, compassionate, and made me feel completely at ease knowing he was in such 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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Oxnard on Rover is $42.8 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 1,026 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.
