We report here the draft genome sequences of one Arthrobacter sp. strain (NamB2) and three Pseudarthrobacter sp. strains (NamE2, NamB4, and NamE5) isolated from topsoil in the Namib Desert, Namibia. The assemblies contain between 29 (NamB2) and 68 (NamE5) contigs >200 bp and range from 3.26 Mb (NamB2) to 4.03 Mb (NamE2). One plasmid was identified in Pseudarthrobacter sp. strain NamE5.
