“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!”
“Charles loves going over to Mario’s! He’s always well rested and enjoys sunbathing in Mario’s back yard. I get up to date photos of my precious boy when I’m gone; which eases my anxiety!”
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
“She is very welcoming yo us and the dogs. It was great that she was cool with the five pound little guy and the 85 pound bug guy together. She sent pics. She has a good fenced in back yard that the bigger dog needs and the small dog must have. I will schedule with her again.”
“I had such a great experience having Jeter and Blue stay with Gracie & Julio over the long weekend! They were incredibly flexible, accommodating, and took such great care of both of them. I loved getting pictures and updates throughout their stay. It was so nice to see how happy, comfortable, and well taken care of they were. I could tell they were in great hands, and I really appreciated all the love and attention they gave them. I would absolutely recommend Gracie & Julio and would definitely have Jeter and Blue stay with them again!”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover, big, small, young and old. I’ve rescued several dogs so I know how uniquely special all dogs are. Looking to stay active incorporating my two favorite things, dogs and outdoors. I am newly retired and looking for activities to keep me sharp, mind, body and soul. I have loved dogs my whole life and most love me too. I have a secure backyard, a 12 yr old Maltese named Roscoe. Our days are pretty chill with walks to the park and car rides. If I stay in your home, just let me know what your expectations are and any routines you’d like me to follow.
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life. I grew up with Cody, a large chocolate Lab who was an amazing family dog. I was responsible for feeding him, walking him, and helping with his everyday care. Through taking care of him, I became very comfortable handling and caring for larger dogs. I’ve also helped care for my neighbors’ dogs and have experience with basic pet sitting, including feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure pets are safe and comfortable. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and will treat every pet I care for like they’re part of the family. I’m a student at CSU Channel Islands and only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with breaks between classes that allow me to come home throughout the day. My schedule is very flexible, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention, walks, and care they need. I also live with two close friends who are very responsible, so someone is almost always home, making our place a great environment for pets who enjoy having people around. I care for every pet like they’re my own and always follow the owner’s routine and instructions. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or theirs, I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of walks, playtime, attention, and bathroom breaks. I’m also very respectful of each pet’s personality and comfort level and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while their owner is away.

“Maureen was a rockstar dog sitter! We will definitely be a repeat client if the opportunity arises. She was super responsive, asked questions, sent plenty of photos and kept us updated on Nala’s stay. I could tell Nala was very happy and at ease in her stay with Maureen—which means peace of mind for us! Definitely recommend for a home that is loving and dependable!”
About: *House sitting- easier if i can sleep at home and come back to them in morning (I have a dog at home too) But! depends on my schedule and length of time* About Me: I grew up in the Bay Area with pit-labs and was taught how to train dogs when i was about 6. I’ve worked for Rover years ago in college and have even worked at a dog daycare called Camp Bow Wow. I miss my childhood dogs every day but now have an 8-year-old black mouth cur rescue I flew out from Maui, HI 😇 I love all animals but dogs are definitely my favorite pets to be around. I’m currently working part time so in the meantime I am pretty flexible! Living silver strand with lots of space to walk dogs, the beach, and friendly neighbors. Your trust and your dog’s safety is priority for me. Making sure the dog(s) always have water, comfortable temperatures, 1-3 outings a day depending on age breed etc, are fed, rested, and cuddles if they enjoy is important! Dogs are so vulnerable, social, emotional and need almost as much care as toddlers.
“Brittany has been amazing with my pup who has some separation anxiety. He gets excited when he realizes where we are headed, he practically busts the door down to get in!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Port Hueneme
Kirsten was absolutely amazing with my Baby Ozzy! She kept me updated with pictures throughout his stay, which gave me peace of mind. Ozzy looked so happy and well care for, and it was clear that he was in good hands. I truly appreciate the love and care she gave him. I highly recommend Kirsten and would definitely trust her with Ozzy again.
Jennifer was exceptional. It is hard to know how well a dog sitter does, especially if they don’t send updates or photos. But Jennifer took the time to send many photos and updates every day while I was away. I could tell from the photos that my dogs were having a great time and doing just fine. Would book her again!
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!
Susanna provided excellent service and communication every day. I would use her service again if I’m around the area again. She provided Penny with comfort while we were away and I would recommend her to anyone who is debating on whether or not to book their dog with Susana.
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!
Ayana watched my dog for 10 days & did an incredible job! My dog requires medication twice a day & she handled that like a pro. My dog also got along really well with Ayana’s dog & I love that they got to play together in the yard. Ayana is everything you hope to find in a petsitter.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Port Hueneme is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $72 per night.

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.
97% of sitters in Port Hueneme 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 Port Hueneme 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 Port Hueneme.
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 Port Hueneme 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 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.
