“Heather did a wonderful job taking care of our puppy! She was extremely kind, responsive, and was very easy to coordinate with. Our puppy wasn’t fully trained when Heather agreed to look after him, but he returned very disciplined and well-behaved. We also loved receiving photos of him almost everyday while he was staying at Heather’s place.”
“My pup had a wonderful time with Heather and her family. They took great care of him and let me know how he was doing. They were able to take him on relatively short notice which I really appreciate. Thanks!”
“Faustine was great! There were some expected changes with the booking at the last minute (not her fault), and she communicated well and was flexible in order to make everything still happen. We'll definitely be using her services again! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our furbaby, Faustine! 😊”
“Kim was great, she really helped us out last minute (the day of) and sent lots of pictures! He was super tired when he came back, she gave him lots of attention and exercise!”
About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life. I now have a 4 year old dog who I've raised since she was 9 weeks old, and an 11 year old rescue kitty. I'm very active with animals, providing love, exercise, basic training, and mental stimulation. I work part time and homeschool my kids full time. I am happy to help with walks, board as needed, and of course do house visits for cats (or potty stops for dogs!). I have a fenced in yard and a one level apartment. I have a 4 year old bernedoodle and an 11 year old rescue kitty who is an absolute love. Happy to provide in home care or bring pets here to get some exercise and play with my pup!
“Jackpot is really part of Samantha and Landon’s second home. When I drop him off he runs to them. She gives him his meds, special treats and a ton of play time. Thank you so much.”
“I feel so comfortable leaving my dog with Janelle and Bob! They are so caring and loving! They have a great set up with a fenced in backyard! I know that my dog is safe and well cared for when I'm away. I would highly recommend them to care for your fur babies!”
“Tracy is fantastic, she was so accommodating and obviously cares so much about pups. Her place is really nice in a quiet neighborhood with a bunch of doggies and a 5mph speed limit. I felt so comfortable leaving Halo with her and will gladly again if I'm back on the area!”
About: Hi! I’m Sammy, and I would love to hang out with your pets! Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, I raised everything from a guinea pig to a cat and two wonderful dogs, so I know firsthand that pets aren't just animals, they're family. I’ve been pet-sitting and walking dogs for over 9 years, starting in high school. Whether it’s an energetic pup who needs a solid outdoor run, a leisurely neighborhood stroll, or a cat who just wants a cozy companion and mealtime company, I’m your person. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels, and I take pride in giving every pet the exact mix of fun, care, and attention they need. I’m also happy to host your dog in my own home! Whether you need drop-in visits, a fun walk, or a cozy home away from home where your pup can relax and get constant love while you're away, I've got you covered. Your pets will be in safe, loving hands, and you can definitely expect plenty of photo updates along the way! I can’t wait to meet your furry (or squeaky!) best friends. I’m currently a law student with an extremely flexible schedule! My classes are spaced out so that I'm never gone for more than 4 hours at a time, giving me plenty of free time during the day and evening to devote to your pets. I am more than happy to host dogs in my own home, offering a safe, comfortable, and cozy spot where they can hang out and get constant love while you're away. I live in a pet-friendly duplex situated in a quiet, walkable neighborhood with low traffic, wide sidewalks, and great routes for peaceful daily walks. My home is clean, secure, and fully set up to give your pet a safe, cozy space to relax without hazards. Because I’m never away for long stretches, I am able to closely monitor visiting pets, keep a structured routine, and give them the attentive care they deserve.
“Juliana and family have watched Charlie several times and he is so happy and it's like he is going on vacation too. They send photos and he loves playing with their dogs and kids. I can't recommend them enough ❤️🐾❤️🐾”
About: I’ve always had animals growing up! I’ve had the privilege to take care of a couple dogs throughout their whole life. So I’ve got experience tiring out puppies to lounging with older pups. I’m excited to take care of your pups and whatever their needs may be! I’ve also have experience taking care of animals professionally as a hand in a pet resort. I currently work for myself landscaping so I have the agency to make my own schedule. Happy to try to accommodate days or times that work better for you. I try to include my dogs in all physical activities if they’re feeling up to it. This usually looks like hiking or walks. I have an older dog so I have a good gauge for feeling out when he’s up to it. I’m happy to meet your dog/animal where they’re at and give them the care they need.
“The most considerate and thorough dog care I have ever experienced. Thank you Kim, we for sure would recommend your services and will continue to work with regarding our dog care needs.”
“Henry had a wonderful time, he got plenty of love and activity. It was just as much of a vacation for him as it was for me, and I got plenty of picture updates to know you was doing well while I went away. As always, Laura and her family and home were wonderful and a safe and comfortable place for Henry to have a mini vacation.”
“Michelle took great care of Lucas during his stay and updated us with pictures each day. She was responsive throughout the rover process and pleasant to work with. Lucas and Henrietta made quick acquaintanceship, which is always a pleasure to see.”
“Stephanie was absolutely lovely with our pup. Communicative and helpful with coordinating drop off and pickup. She sent us nice updates of the stay. We will happily have her watch our pup anytime!”
About: I have many years of experience working with different types of animals. I have previously worked in a boarding facility/daycare as well as doing my own personal pet care for over 5 years. I have experience with overnight care, puppies, kittens, adults and seniors. I also have experience with animals with special needs. I know how to medicate whether it is pills or injecting insulin. If staying at my place the pet is welcome anywhere in the house, and I will let them feel like they are home. I am always around when pet sitting, and if I’m watching a dog and I have to run an errand, they are always allowed to come along with me. They will be treated just as you would treat them. unless I am traveling out of state for work, I am working from home, so the time of your pets stay always consists of 24/7 care I stick to a routine, but I also follow your pet’s schedule, feeding time/bathroom breaks, etc, their stay here will be treated as if they are at home

The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Contoocook can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Contoocook 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 Contoocook.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Contoocook. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Contoocook 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
