Dog Boarding in Dover

“Ashley took great care of my pup. She is clearly very experienced with all types of dogs and ensures they are safe and active while in her care. We will definitely use her again!”

“Our dog stayed with Colleen for a week while we were on vacation. This was our first time leaving him for that long, and Colleen made us feel comfortable each day, with detailed updates and photos. Colleen went above and beyond to make adjustments specific to Cooper’s need for recharge time. Cooper loves it at Colleen’s house and was happy and calm when we picked him up. Thank you Colleen!❤️”

About: Hi, I’m Leah! Animals have been the center of my world for as long as I can remember, and I bring that same lifelong love and care into every visit, walk, or cuddle session. Whether it’s a long walk, playful games, feeding, or medication, I make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved—just like they do with you. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family, so I make communication and dependability my top priorities. You’ll always know how your pet is doing, and you can relax knowing they’re in capable, compassionate hands. Pet care isn’t my side gig—it’s my full-time passion. I’ve dedicated my schedule entirely to caring for animals, which means your pets get my full attention, flexibility, and consistency every time. Experience: I've been immersed in the world of pet care since I was young, starting at the tender age of 5 when my cat Spooky had a litter of kittens. Throughout my life, I've had the pleasure of caring for pets at every stage, fostering a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors.

“Kane and Colette are amazing. Such kind people, so flexible, responsive, understanding and honest. We don't have enough nice things to say. They sent us daily updates about our dog with photos, took him on a boat ride, lots of walks, kept him entertained all day and he was literally smiling in every photo. We needed help with our dog last minute and they were so beyond accommodating and made everything easy and stress free. Maverick has stayed with them a few times now and this last time almost a week and they made him feel right at home. They are my #1 pick for my dog and should be yours too!! Such a great experience. Thank you so much!”

“My first Rover experience with my just turned one puppy. Nicholas was very friendly, sent me daily pictures, and most importantly my dog was well cared for and came home happy and I think a little improved by the experience :). I would recommend Nicholas unreservedly, and so would my dog Sadie. Thank You!!!”

About: I love to make sure your babies are happy, safe and comfortable so that you can enjoy your time away without worry! FaceTime, texts and consistent communication is what makes me your best choice! Former special educator, patience is my virtue! Weekday social worker, so I’m off on weekends routinely, which coincides with families wanting some getaway time. Occasionally available weeknights for walks and drop ins. Weekends are more flexible, and I’m usually available AM/PM or both. Looking to begin boarding in the Fall 2025 Primarily, I can come to your house for care. Occasionally, happily ready to provide care in my home for dogs on weekends. Walking trails and small yard. Other dogs are plentiful here, I will always keep your dog leashed at all times. I’m not against an occasional pup cup trip but have also respected gluten free diets as well.

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.

“Beth took fantastic care of our two standard poodles. Her backyard was poodle heaven. One of our spoods is pretty needy, and has some anxiety, but I didn’t worry for one moment knowing she was in Beth’s capable hands. Thank you Beth!”

“Julia welcomed our puppy Riley into her home for 6 days. It was our first experience with Rover, and bringing Riley to someone's home outside of our family. We were amazed at how Riley quickly became comfortable! He was welcomed by Julia and soon learned the daily routine. Julia sent us tons of pictures - daily walks, playing with her dog, cuddling and napping. Her knowledge of puppies and training is very deep, and her quiet way was very reassuring to us, and for Riley. She even shared maps of her favorite trails so we could continue to take riley to some of his now favorite walks. We look forward to booking with Julia in the near future. She truly is a 5 star person!”

Judi C.

“Karen is wonderful! This was our first time with Rover and Karen and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Thank you for taking such good care of Wendell, Karen!”

Amy A.

“Katie did a fantastic job taking care of our dog. She has a wonderful, confident way about her which puts one instantly at ease! I highly recommend booking with Katie!”

Sarah A.

“Jamie was great with our dog Roo! We have a rescue that can have a hard time in new places, but Jamie made her feel comfortable and took good care of our pup while we were away.”

Sadie G.

“Picturesque Maine farm for a dog to be boarded. Jeanne knows hers dogs and was a great host for my furry friend Diamond. I would definitely try to use Jeanne’s farm first if Diamond needed to be boarded again.”

Wayne P.

“Becky was great. She accepted the booking quickly and communicated well throughout. The photos showed a group of very happy dogs - these are some of my favorite photos of my little guy. My dog can't bear to be left alone and is a sweet but insistent snuggler. He also gets the zoomies when he is nervous. She welcomed him with open arms and settled him quickly. She was sorry to see him leave, but he will definitely be back!”

Peter C.

“Michelle was very easy to communicate with and was very flexible with my travel plans. Presley had a great time at her home. Will definitely use her again!”

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.

“Sadie and her husband took great care of our dog, Millie! She sent me many pictures of Millie making herself right at home in their home! Even texted me to ask if she could take her to the dog park. Millie loved her pups as well and we'll definitely be using Sadie again if we go away!”

Amy R.

“Absolutely amazing! She took care of both of my dogs. One has special needs (deaf and blind) and she was incredibly understanding by and accommodating to his every need. Even while taking care of my high maintenance boy she also made sure my other dog (lab mix) got plenty of attention and exercise! She has a great yard for the pups and even set up a gated area in her home for my little blind guy to keep him safe from running into things or getting lost. Her whole family helped to make sure both my pups received plenty of attention and care! If you have any concerns about having some one sit your pup she is the person to go to!”
