Dog Walkers in Alton, NH

About: As a dog mom and foster dog mom I know how important peace of mind and safety are for a parent while you’re away, even just to work for the day. I’ve been a dog sitter for a long time, some work on Rover and some for friends and family. You’ll notice a gap in my review dates - I took a break from Rover while we personally had three dogs, one that wasn’t strange dog friendly. We also moved out of state, bought / built a home, and got married. All of that to say, I’m happy to provide more recent references for you to check so you feel super warm and fuzzy that I’m the good animal loving human I claim to be :) I’ve had the privilege of loving and unfortunately saying good bye to two senior dogs so I know the extra level of compassion they need - an extra potty break, a slow easy walk, meds / injections, or just a human shield from an excited younger dog sibling. I’ve also successfully raised and trained a few puppies to be those respectful younger siblings and know what challenges come from that stage of life. I’m enjoying a season of wonderful flexibility and want to share that with your furry family members and ease your stress. My two dogs love playing with other dogs, always slow intros and vetting first or separate play is always an option too. Our backyard is expansive and a good size of the land is fenced in by 48” high plastic vinyl fence. Since my husband and I are active fosters, much of our home is gated to keep snoots out of places they could find trouble. We also have the space and ability to separate dogs (crated or uncrated) for strategic down time, rest due to injury healing, or just to de-stimulate before returning to the fun. Licky puzzles are an optional add on for calming rest as is a bath if your furry friend needs to be tidied up prior to your return home! Multiple furry friends are welcome! Rotation for safe play is always done when necessary if furry friends from a couple families are together. Can't wait to hear from you and meet you furry family members! I own two businesses that I work from home so I have complete flexibility with my schedule which is wonderful! I’m grateful to be able to care for your pup while you’re not available so you come home to a tired happy dog! Dogs are always cared for in a fear free, positive reinforcement only manner. As a dog mom to two allergy girls - food sensitivity and boundaries are highly respected. Due to our partnership with a local rescue and the foster work we get to do, much of the house is gated to keep snoots safely out of places they could find trouble. Additionally, I have the ability and space to crate or non-crate separate pups who may need a break, rest to not overdue if recovering from injury, or simply get overstimulated.

“Selyn did a great job of wearing out my pups while we were gone for the day! Highly recommend!”

“I have an energetic 90lb shepherd mix, and Garrett does an amazing job tiring her out on walks! He is friendly, punctual and his love for dogs is obvious. I would highly recommend him as your next dog walker.”

“Katie has watched my pup in the past and was phenomenal! Very caring and went above and beyond to meet his needs. I recently had a last minute boarding cancellation that put us in a pickle, as we would have to be gone the entire day for a funeral. Katie was booked for boarding but was able fit him in for a walk despite being last minute. I am so grateful, as I knew he would be excited to see her, and I wouldn’t have to miss part of the service to travel back. Sincerely grateful and beyond satisfied with her care.”

About: I’ve walked dogs for neighbors and friends for several years and have always loved it. I get along well with all animals, even ones with anxiety or separation issues. I am patient and attentive to their needs, and am happy to give them all the attention they want. I’m currently working part time from 9-2:30ish on weekdays, so I have plenty of availability before and after my hours on weekdays ,and am completely available on weekends! You can put your trust in me to keep your fur babies happy and healthy. I am aware that leaving them alone can be hard, and I want to make them as comfortable as possible.

“Leilani was attentive and responsive. She was prompt to let me know if there was any scheduling issues. I knew right away that our pet, puppy, was in the best care. She's very friendly and definitely good with animals of all sorts. I would definitely recommend her services.”

“Kate is amazing, she takes great care of my golden retriever and 2 maine coon cats. Kate comes once a week and takes my golden on a walk, he looks forward to seeing her every week, Kate is always right on time and leaves me complete updates followed up with pictures. I appreciate having someone that I can trust in my home with my fur-babies.”

About: I have worked as a dog bather for about 2.5 years so I have experience with nearly all dog breeds and I’m comfortable with all of them. I do not have any cats or dogs as I currently own three rabbits but I do love them. I am currently seeking a job in a field related to my Bachelors degree and working part-time so I will have plenty of time for Rover. I am open to recommendations and tips to give your fur baby a personalized experience full of fun and comfort, but I am happy to and capable of establishing a good relationship with them from scratch.

“Very professional”

About: I've had dogs my whole life. I have been caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes for the past 10 years on the side. I'm available for dog walks, drop in visits, or daytime sitting during the week. I have a dog of my own and it would be ideal for your pup to get along with other dogs! I have a large fenced yard for your furry friend to run around in! I have endless toys and I am able to crate your pup if needed.

“Maile was awesome with my pup. She was able to walk him on very short notice and made sure to take pictures and give a nice update.”

Emma B.

“Her first time out with my girl. It was very hot that day, and her attention and concerns with Marlowe becoming over heated was much appreciated! She's very professional and prompt with great communication!”

About: I’ve had fur siblings all of my life and have never had any issues providing the best care, making sure they are well loved and fed and keeping them active. I’ll provide the best care and help out tidying up the home while you are away. Although I am new to pet sitting I will strive to make sure all of your animals are well cared for under my services. I look forward to hearing from you! I’m located in the Lakes region and I am willing to travel further on my days off. I do have a full time job but my days off rotate. If you are interested in using my services, reaching out about a week or 2 in advanced would be best so I can accommodate my schedule to yours! If you need a longer stay I can definitely make that happen with more of a heads up. I feed and water my cats before and after my shift. When I come home on my lunch I bring out some of their favorite toys and play until I have to head back to work. When I get home we have more playtime and I feed them dinner. Before bed I make sure all of their water bowls and food bowls are full, I clean their litter boxes 4-5 times a week (fill as needed) and do a deep clean once every 2 weeks to keep things fresh.

About: When I’m not boarding, walking, or doing doggy daycare I’m hanging out with my kiddos. Occasionally I also foster puppies at 8 weeks old and start the potty training process and prepare them to go to their furever home. Does your dogs like to sleep on the couch? Perfect! I do too! Do they prefer to sleep in bed with you at night? Not a problem, come on in! Does your dog need daily walks? You got it! I live on a quiet road off the beaten path. I tend to treat all animals with the respect and love I give my children and I teach my children the same morals. Pets aren’t just pets in my eyes, each dog has needs they need to have met and it’s my job to make that happen when they are in my care. During my high school years I spent my time after school volunteering at the local veterinary clinic assisting the vet techs preform their daily tasks. Growing up I worked on a dairy farm. I know how to administer medications, potty train, bathe, and trim nails. I’m a stay at home mom during the week so I am always home to give my furbabies all the love and attention they want. When I’m home and need to leave your pups will tag along with me through my daily routine and hangout with me. Or if they’d prefer to relax at home and have free range they can! I try to keep a potty and feeding schedule the same as when they are with you. I live in a lake house so if your pups love to swim then this is the place to be! I also have a decent size yard (unfenced) for playing. My two dogs will keep your furbaby company in a doggy sense. My children will also play with your babies so they will definitely have a lot of attention. Inside my house is baby proof so it is also dog proof. Do you want to FaceTime your dog while they are with me? Not a problem, call whenever. I will send pictures and updates throughout the day for you so you know they are okay. Your pets truly are treated like family in my care.

About: I've had a dog all my life. I worked at K9 Kaos for almost 3 years and I worked at Pope Memorial Humane Society for about a year. I absolutely love dogs and would love to care for your furry friends!!! I'm available all week for overnight house-sitting. I can do a meet or walk anytime of the week after 8am but on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday it will have to be before 11am. I work 4 days of 10 hour shifts, meaning I work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 12:00pm-10:30pm. I do not work Wednesday's and am free to do a meet or walk anytime between 8am-7pm. I will not be able to have pets at my house. I have a dog, a cat and a snake already. Sorry for the inconvience.

“Jennifer was amazing! She did a great job communicating with us. Our last night away, a tree fell across our street knocking down power lines and blocking her way. She went above and beyond making it through to care for our animals!”

About: Hello there! My name is Seanna and I have been around pets my whole life. I understand the needs of different animals, and tend to them with love and compassion. Some dogs are active and high energy, and some are much more low-key. Whatever type of dog you have, I'll be sure to meet them where they're at. I l like to go on runs with active dogs, and lay with the lazy ones. Knowing I'll never replace you in your dogs mind, I'll aim to be their second best friend. I am happy to brush a dog, and scoop a litter box. Extending my nurturing to cats, rodents, fish, and plants comes easily to me. I look forward to connecting with you and your beloved pet. I have a lot of freedom and flexibility in my daily life. Here, there is plenty of room to provide excellent care for the four legged ones. I understand that each pet and pet owner has unique needs. I am able to listen to those needs and care for each pet in the way that they require . I am committed to connecting with animals and ensuring their well being.
