“Our two Labs spent a week with Julie while we were off on vacation and judging by the daily pictures and updates that we got, they were clearly on vacation too! They spent the week playing with other dogs, lounging around and doing all the things that puppies love. We loved all the pics that were sent and when they came home they were tuckered out and happy. Just what we were looking for in a sitter!”

About: I love and care for my own dog Finnley—my life is truly built around him. I’ll be offering that same level of love and attention to any dog in my care. If you or anyone you know ever needs help, I’d love to be considered. Please feel free to share my name with any family or friends who might be looking! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home by 2:45 each day, which allows me to be present and attentive in the afternoons and evenings. I take the dogs out for a walk and make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and care as part of my normal day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure environment where they’ll be well cared for at all times. My dog Finnley is very friendly and loves the company of other dogs, so your pup will have a built-in buddy to keep them happy and comfortable.
“This was the first sleep away for Blossom and Mia but they had a fabulous time!!! I appreciated the updates/pictures and the flexability with drop off. It was a great experience.”


“Bob was great! i would highly recommend using him. he was flexible, responsive, and took great care of our dog! Effi came back chilled and i think it’s the vibe he lets off with the dogs.”


“Kristin saved us with a last minute booking! She and her family are so sweet. They sent us updates and pictures while we were away and even let us extend Tater’s stay by several days. We highly recommend Kristin and James!”

About: Hi and thanks for considering me to take care of your dog (s)! I may not have years of experience in owning a dog, (just got our 1st puppy last year!) but I am a huge lover of animals and have years of experience in taking care of them. I'm the girl who stocks up on treats for when my coworkers bring their dogs to work! I'm the girl who cant walk past a dog on a trail without wanting to stop and pet the dogs. I am loving, caring, and will spoil your fur baby with lots of playtime, love, and a fun run or walks! Let's talk about you and your dog's needs! I do work full time from 9-5pm Monday through Friday, with most weekends off, But I can check in on your babies before or after work, if it's just drop ins, or schedule walks. We do live in a nice quiet and low traffic safe neighborhood with plenty of trails around to walk your dog, and I will always abide and follow any special instructions you may have with the utmost care and respect, so that he or she, and YOU, will be happy.
“Felicia was very accommodating and easy to work with which put all my anxiety of leaving my pets behind at ease. My dogs seemed very relaxed at her home and I believe they really enjoyed their stay with her.”

“This is our third booking with Briahna! We greatly appreciate her responsiveness and updates, but most importantly how much she actually enjoys having Charlie! It definitely puts our minds at ease knowing he is well-cared for. We are already scheduling his next stay!”

“Very welcoming and felt extremely comfortable leaving my Labrador here for a trial run before the big vacation. Cassidy, THANK YOU. Charley looks forward to seeing you again in August!”

About: I have always had a dogs and I now have two I adore. I can offer a safe loving home while you are away from home. I am home all day so can let the dogs in and out as needed. My two dogs are also here to play and keep your dogs company. I have two dogs to keep your dog company and play. I also have an invisible fence so they can come in and out as needed.
“Katelyn provided phenomenal care for my 5 year old golden retriever named Scooby, with updates and photos of Scooby during his stay. Katelyn has a great property with a fenced in yard that allowed my dog to play off leash with her friendly pups. Her family was loving towards my dog and I look forward to connecting with them again for further dog sitting experiences.”

“Shana was truly an exceptional sitter and we feel so lucky to have found her. From the moment we arrived, it was clear how thoughtful and prepared she was — she even had a clipboard with notes ready, which immediately made us feel comfortable and confident leaving our dog in her care. Throughout the stay she sent so many photos and detailed updates, which we really appreciated. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing exactly how things were going and seeing how happy our dog was. Our pup ended up having a bit of a GI issue while we were away, and Shana handled it with such calm confidence and care. She clearly knows dogs incredibly well and was so composed and knowledgeable in every situation. She even cooked rice and chicken for her to help settle her stomach and kept us updated on how she was doing, which meant so much to us. Shana, her husband Dylan, and their dog Cleo created such a warm, loving environment. It genuinely felt like our dog was being cared for by people who truly understand and love dogs. We are so grateful for the care she gave our pup and would trust Shana with her again in a heartbeat.”

“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!”


“As usual Kimberly was amazing! I appreciate so much her flexibility and care for my pups. You really can just tell how much she cares for them like they’re her own and how much they love being with her 🩷”

“Excellent and reliable. I got stuck in another state for an extra day due to a flight cancellation, and she was so helpful with watching my dog extra and flexible with a last minute change in plans. Used her services multiple times and always satisfied!”

About: I've had large dogs my entire life, including a special needs dog and police-trained K9 dogs. I have owned and operated a farm hotel in Brazil for the past 5 years, where I was the primary responsible for all daily care, injections, medical treatments and behavioral work with the animals (5 large dogs and multiple farm animals), so am very comfortable administering any special care your animal may need. I have also rescued & fostered nearly a dozen dogs from the street and helped them find forever homes. I love all animals and understand each one is different with unique personalities. The pics on my profile are from my farm. I work from home which allows me to always be present to keep your pet company, and love taking small cuddle, walk and play breaks throughout the day to break up my desk routine. Having extra dogs is the perfect excuse to stretch my legs! I live alone in a spacious apartment downtown Portsmouth where I can board up to 2 large dogs or 3 small dogs at a time. I am only a 5min walk from the Mill Pond dog park and can take your dog for several walks throughout the day. I can also crate your dog if they prefer it. I can administer medication and provide any special treatment necessary. I treat all pets as my own, like members of my family.

“Katherine is wonderful and our first pick of anyone to watch our dog Arrow. Even when he gives her a little trouble (like a bout of diarrhea), Katherine handles it in stride and is a great person to trust with your pup.”

Barrington pet parents share their Rover experiences
This is the second Noreen has watched our 3 year old pup, Faye, and we cannot speak high enough about her. She's very responsive, gives great updates, and sends plenty of pictures. Noreen always takes care of Faye exactly as we asked her too and asks questions when she has them. Noreen is a fantastic dog sitter and we would recommend her to anyone!
