“Meagan is wonderful with our cat Murphy. He loves affection and she is always happy to give him lots of love. She is very reliable and has even checked on our mail and paper deliveries that were supposed to be held and brings them in when the hold isn't followed. Meagan is definitely our 'go to' person whenever we need to leave Murphy for a few days, or longer.”

About: I have owned animals all my life and have plenty of enrichment activities- snuffle matts, snuffle balls, puzzle toys, regular toys, and a big yard to play in! I love animals and this is currently a full time job for me being a pet sitter and owner. I make my dog my life and we go for walks and adventures daily. I make a schedule for my own dog, which includes puzzle toys for breakfast, an afternoon walk or adventure, snuffle mats and balls for later, and plenty of cuddles throughout the day!

“This was my first time using Rover and I was really nervous to try it. We have a senior dog that doesn’t travel well and we usually have people come stay or check in on him, but none of them could do it. I searched Rover for people who had good reviews and repeat customers. Leilani agreed to help last minute and it was much appreciated. She checked on our senior guy twice while we were gone overnight, took care of his diaper, and cleaned up any messes he had. She also fed him. She sent pictures and communicated any problems. It looks like he didn’t want to get out of bed so she brought his food to him for one of the feedings, which was a super sweet way to make sure he got food. We would hire her again.”


“Rachel is so great with my 2 wacky pups and they absolutely love her!”


About: With between three and four years of hands-on experience training dogs under the guidance of various professional trainers, I've developed a well-rounded approach that blends multiple techniques into my own daily structure and curriculum. This foundation in training allows me to offer more than just exercise—I provide mentally enriching experiences for the dogs in my care. In addition to training services, I offer both solo and small group hikes (up to four dogs), ensuring each dog gets personalized attention, socialization, and the physical activity they need to thrive Your dog’s well-being is my number one priority, and that extends to every part of their experience—from training and transport to time on the trail. I understand that every dog (and owner) has unique needs, so I strive to be as flexible as possible with scheduling. Whether you need regular weekly hikes or occasional help, I’m happy to work with your availability to make sure your dog gets the care, structure, and attention they deserve. My vehicle is equipped with three crash-tested crates, each securely strapped down to ensure stability and protection on the road. For dogs who prefer to ride as passengers, I also provide a dog seat belt option for a safe and comfortable journey. I keep spare leashes and muzzles in the car at all times to be prepared for any situation, ensuring every dog is transported with the highest level of care and responsibility.

“Baxter was well taken care of by Mikayla! Even a walk! Highly recommend as I think Baxter loves her!”



“Ashley was great with our two cats! Very responsive, sent great photos and took great care of them. She even won over our very shy cat!”


“Jessica was a fantastic sitter for Woody during my week long vacation. I felt very comfortable with her in charge and Woody really liked her as well. She did everything that was asked of her and she often went above and beyond. She sent pictures and kept up with my trip and even left the lights on for me when I was on my way home. I would certainly book Jessica again and highly recommend her.”


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: I’ve loved taking care of dogs ever since I was 11! I’ve walked, fed, and pet sat for all kinds of dogs including small ones and even my huge Bernese mountain dog! I am a college student at the University of Vermont but I am currently home for winter break! I have a very flexible schedule and can board dogs in my home as well I can care for your pet in my own home alongside my friendly Bernese Mountain Dog named Louie. I also have a great neighborhood to walk your dog in!

About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I currently have a playful Russian Blue cat and have cared for both dogs and cats for over a decade. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, calm demeanor, and ability to tune into an animal's needs—whether it's a high-energy puppy, a shy rescue, or a senior pet needing gentle care. I have experience with reinforcing training with consistency and love. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable and consistent care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make sure animals receive attention, play, and walks at regular intervals. I’m committed to keeping pets comfortable and cared for, whether it’s a one-time visit or regular companionship. I treat every home and pet with respect, care, and professionalism. I follow all instructions carefully, keep pets’ environments clean and safe, and always ensure gates, doors, and crates are secure. Whether in your home or mine, I create a calm, low-stress environment where pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. I communicate clearly and provide updates so pet parents feel confident and informed.

“I can't say enough great things about the care Jamie B. Gave to our old boy, Buddha🐾💙 She went above and beyond with detailed doggo stats at every visit and sent lots of pictures and videos as well. Quality care from a wonderful human being☺️”


“Candy loved her daily play dates with Katie and Phoebe! Katie is everything you look for in a dog sitter - reliable, responsible, flexible, and has a true affinity for dogs! I know Candy is looking forward to her next walk with them!”

About: Hi there! My name is Jalen and I am the owner of Walk n Roll NH. I have had pets my entire life and have always worked with animals. My passion for animals is like no other. I treat every single pet as if it was my own child because to me they are all my children! I can accommodate any situation needed! My goal is to make sure I go above and beyond to meet your pets needs! Boarding is so stressful for animals and they don’t typically receive one on one care as often as they should. Being home or in my home they are more relaxed and it’s one solo person that they feel comfortable with! I am willing to meet your pet as many times as you need for both of you to feel comfortable with the services provided! I have two dogs of my own who are not in my home when I have other pups boarding with me. I would have more if I could! . I was a vet tech for a few years so I’m experienced in that field when it comes to the basics! I also foster, so I am always working with new animals with all different temperaments and personalities! I’ve never met an animal that didn’t like me or listen to me! I will always work with your pets and try to help improve anything you are trying to work on! I appreciate you taking the time to read this! You can either message me here or on my Walk n Roll NH page with any questions! I do eyelash extensions and have a pet service business! I am my own boss! I have a very flexible schedule to meet your pets needs! If you need me I will make myself available! I just recently had a very reactive foster dog. I have broken up fights and have been attacked myself. Safety first and fear free always. I am confident in my own safety as well as your pets.

About: I have been taking care of neighbor’s and friends’ dogs during vacations since I was 14. This includes walking, feeding, and playing with them on a set or flexible schedule. I work part-time during weekdays and the majority of the weekend. I have time to manage work and taking care of dogs on my days off. I have always loved animals and wanted to take care of them since I was a kid. I have a very friendly and old dog of my own, who I’ve taken care of constantly, especially through my gap year.

“Laura was amazing with my dog Sammy while I was away. I have known her for about 3 years now and in the beginning I would leave a note out for everything that needed to be done and she caught on very quickly. Hell, she would even clean up around the house even when I didn’t expect that of her. She was always active with Sammy and he would love it when she came over. I would check in and she would send me the best photos of him at the park! I moved away recently so both of us are very sad she can’t watch Sammy for me, but he sure did love his time with her.”


Madison B.
“Madison has cared and walked our Sheltland Sheepdogs and Australian Shepherds for many years and walked multiple dogs at a time. She currently cares & walks our Bernese Mountain dog since he was a puppy and he is now a 95 lb 18 month old. Our dog is shy but immediately took to her, always very excited when she takes him for short or long walks. He also requires a special diet and she was very responsible caring for him with all his needs. Madison is patient, calm, responsible, dependable and is willing to walk our dog year-round!”
