“Highly recommend Janelle and her husband. They took very good care of cinnaman! He was very calm and comfortable when we picked him up. They have a nice fenced in backyard and a nice neighborhood for walks.”

“Heather always takes great care of my dog Dilly! It’s comforting to know that Dilly is safe and happy at her home overnight. Plus Dilly gets to socialize with other dogs which is great for her. Heather sends updates and pictures throughout her stay. It’s easy to book, especially last minute, and she always responds quickly on the App. Highly recommend. Thanks for taking great care of my girl!”

“Suzanne was the best! Our puppy Yuki loved her right away. Her place was safe and well suited for him. She always kept us informed and sent great pictures. A real pet lover! Her dog was great for Yuki, well as golden retrievers are very loving! We will be back Suzanne!!!!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Katie and cannot recommend her enough! She was extremely responsive, organized, and friendly. We got daily pics and updates and she took wonderful care of Moose. We will definitely use her again!”

“Once again Jaxon had a great visit with Alina and her family. He really loves the comforts of home! Alina’s home is conveniently located, allowing us to enjoy quick ski trips and hikes in the White Mountains. Jaxon looks forward to these trips as much as we do!”


“Kiana was truly amazing. I had a sudden family emergency that required me to go out of state. She went so far above and beyond during that time, while having no obligation to do so. From the beginning of the cats stay with Kiana, she had been so incredibly flexible, she agreed to watch them with only two days notice, and due to the situation evolving and becoming unpredictable, she was more than happy to allow me to extend their stay. She was the direct cause of so much stress relief due to knowing the cats were safe, and well taken care of. 5/5 human. As for her actual care of the kitties she again went well above and beyond anything anyone might think is going the extra mile. The cats were given the space needed to become comfortable and very quickly, and happily adapted to the new routine. I received frequent pictures and videos, she was very communicative, and because of her vigilance we were able to create a plan of action for one of the kitties who started throwing up more frequently than normal. She even went out and bought higher quality food for the cats, and implemented a structured feeing strategy so we could better assess the puking, which I doubt was an easy task since they both free fed before they were boarded. She kept me up to date at all times and provided regular, detailed updates. 5/5 for animal care as well. She is the best sitter/boarder I have ever had any experience with, by exponents, it’s not even close. Her service was head, and shoulders above anyone I’ve personally used before and far better than anything I’ve heard about other boarders. Choosing Kiana to care for your pets should be an insanely easy decision for anyone who wants their animals taken care of at the highest level of care, and wants someone that is just a straight up good human as well.”

“Great people and am amazing, spacious, SAFE place for my dog. Excellent communication. I was happy to share my dog with these exemplary, canine-loving people. Amazing experience.”

“I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! From the moment I met Hannah and her husband, it was clear they have a true love for animals. Hannah is reliable, and went above and beyond in taking care of my dog, Reggie. Throughout the multiple times they watched my dog, they kept me updated with pictures and messages, which made me feel at ease.”

“I had a great experience with Andrea! She was so flexible and was willing to drop Simba off later, which made everything super convenient and meant be didn’t have to be alone for long. I really appreciated that she let him relax on the furniture since that’s what he’s used to at home. He got along perfectly with her two small dogs and came back happy and tired. I’ll definitely book with her again!”


“Faustine did an incredible job watching our high energy Aussie she made sure to send lots of cute pictures and updates and she certainly kept up with our fast paced boy! I highly recommend her for your Future trips and vacations to watch your dog!”

“Nataliya sent pictures quite often, and Penny seemed part of the family. She had plenty of outdoor time, and seemed to get along great with the other couple dogs. Night time looked just like home, with Penny snuggling on the couch with family. Thank you Nataliya for taking such great care of our little lady ❤”

“Heather was very quick to respond when I was looking for a dog sitter. She is very responsive and always kept me updated! My dog had a little upset stomach and she did give him some pumpkin puree :) I would definitely rebook with Heather and highly recommend!!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for Riggs than Ric! He was so kind and loving towards our old dog. He had him outside a ton, gave him great walks, followed our specific food instructions perfectly, and just genuinely obviously cared about Riggs being safe and comfortable. He was also super communicative during Riggs’ whole stay, and flexible with drop off and pick up times. I highly recommend Ric!”

“I recently boarded my dog with Daria for the first time, and I was a bit nervous since it was my dog's first experience staying in a stranger's house. However, Daria was amazing! She made my dog feel comfortable and at ease right away. The updates and pictures she sent showed how well my dog was adapting and enjoying the stay. Her kindness and attention to detail made all the difference. I highly recommend Daria for anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter, especially for first-timers!”

About: 🔆Hi! You can call me Jordan! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 12 years of hands-on experience caring for both 🐶 and 🐱 I raised my own rescued dog and cat from just 1 month old and they’re now happy, healthy seniors — so I truly understand the patience, consistency, and love pets need at every stage of life. They’ve moved with me through five cities and three countries. I’ve never given up on them through any stage of my life. 👩🍳 I enjoy cooking nutritious and balanced meals for animals (sometimes for myself ) I love all animals and will learn more knowledge if you need cares for all kinds of pets (chickens, ducks, birds, pigs, etc) 💻 I have been working from home for over 6 years so I will be available everyday! Do not hesitate to contact me on any holidays. Available 7 days a week including all holidays🫡 I will strictly follow all instructions and offer detailed services for them. I will use all the pets knowledge I learnt from books and internet

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.
87% of Alton 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 Alton 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 Alton 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 Alton.
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 Alton 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 NH 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.
