Dog Walking in Dover

About: Hello! I have experience caring for dogs and cats through house-sitting and pet-sitting, including feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping pets comfortable in their own homes. I’m attentive to routines and instructions, and I understand how important consistency and clear communication are when you’re trusting someone with your pet. I currently work at my part-time job on the mornings of Sunday and Tuesday, and all day Friday. My art business allows me to be flexible for the rest of the week for pet care, other than when I am teaching a workshop or vending at a craft fair. I’m most comfortable with pets who are independent or have low-to-moderate care needs, so I can provide calm, consistent attention and ensure they’re happy and comfortable. I provide feeding, walks or litter care, playtime, and attention while keeping homes tidy. I also send updates so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.

“Hunter was great with our pup, responsive, and reliable. Thank you!”

“Stephanie is great with Hobo. He looks forward to her visits and when I ended up having to stay home one day I think he was a little sad it was only me all day. Thank you!”

“Sarah has been walking Jenny weekly for a month or so now in the middle of the day. She has been lovely, and taken Jenny on adventures around town. Sarah has also been flexible when my schedule has changed which I appreciate. I will definitely be booking again!”

“Kate is wonderful! My dog Charlie was being shy and reluctant to go on a walk but Kate stayed and played with her to keep her company for the duration of the visit!”

“Drew has truly been amazing at taking care of our little puppy ! She has been very easy to communicate with and very flexible. Given that our schedules change frequently. She gives us updates on Callaway and even offered extra help when Callaway was sick. Can’t thank her enough!”

About: I love animals and giving thwm so many snuggles. I have taken care of 4 dogs at once for three days. Two who are sisters, and very energetic puppies. I have that high energy, but know how to be neutral too. I'll send photo and video updates...except of the ones where I am singing and dancing to my own music, which are songs about your pet. What can I say? Feeling inspired! I work full-time during school hours M-F, until anywhere between 3:15 and occasionally 5. I am available M-F 6am-7:30AM and 4pm-9:45pm, and if you're nearby I can house and pet sit overnight! I am very affectionate and love taking photos and videos of the pets I take care of. I always send them to the owner as I know how much it meant to me, when my cat was alive. Communicate safety rules with owners prior to pet sitting, and making sure I know where everything is located, such as, food, leash, vet phone, medications

“Jennifer is great with Chief! Thank you!!”

About: Hello! My name is Tai, I am 25 and I have lived in New Hampshire for my entire life, along with my dog and cats. I recently completed my masters and now work as a Project Manager. I enjoy hiking, cooking, or just snuggling my pets in my free time. I have a 2 year old Maine Coon, and have nursed 3 domestic shorthair kittens who were 4 weeks of age to then be adopted by their forever families. I also care for my two very large 100 lb + family dogs who love go howl! My availability varies from day to day but aim to be as flexible as you need me to be as I work from home! My special skills include being connecting with many animals, showing my compassion and love while also training and ensuring their safety. I am currently flexible with my availability, and can discuss various schedule adjustments in order to fulfill your pets needs! I am flexible with work and often times can work from your home! I treat everyone’s home as if it is my own, and treat their pets as my own. Dependent on what the pets need, I will conform to their preferences and needs in order to safely and comfortably keep them enriched until their parents come home!

About: I have always loved animals, and taking care of dogs and cats is truly a dream. I completely understand that each animal has a unique set of needs and I’m ready to learn any phrases or habits you do to help them as best I can! I have a flexible work schedule so I’m available for walks or other needs. I’m available all day during work days. I can cater to specific needs or requests easily! If I were to pet sit, I’d love to chat about how I can best interact with your pet. Tell me all the phrases you use, places they can go in the house, and other rules and I’d be happy to give personalized care.

About: I have been around dogs all of my life and I have grown up with Boxers. When I was in high school I would watch dogs in my town very frequently, from staying overnight to just walking and letting them out during the day. I currently work full time in downtown Portsmouth, but work is flexible with me when it comes to choosing my breaks, so I can let your dog out during the day. I am respectful and courteous of my clients homes. I clean up after myself and I always keep my clients updated during my stay by providing pictures and reaching out if needed.

About: I've had cats and dogs (and other small furry critters) since I was in HS. I love caring for animals. It has always been a joy to care for my own or others. For this last Thanksgiving we had a Foster puppy here as well as our neighbors dog and it was a lot of fun. Everyone, had fun, even the cats. The more I sit for animals on Rover, the more I love it. ~ WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT ~ We will review anything you'd like before you leave, and will do our best to accommodate. ~HOUSESITTING The housesitting rate covers you for 24 hours. I would be coming to your home to watch over it and care for your pet(s) most hours of the day + overnight. I can also water your plants, check your mail, receive packages etc. - One to three walks/day and/or a few potty breaks in the yard for dogs - Clean cat litter box - Feed + water them - Play + cuddle with them - Pic or video updates -Meet and Greets Before any house sitting, we love to have a meet and greet to make sure we are a good fit. Let’s set something up if you’re interested! ~DROP-IN VISITS I will be dropping by for 30-60 minutes to check in on your pet(s): - Let dogs out for a potty break - Clean cat litter box - Feed + water them - Play + cuddle with them - Pic or video updates ~DOG WALKING I would be coming to your house to take your dog(s) for a 30 - 60-minute walk in your neighborhood.

We also have 2 large crates, if pets prefer them. We would honor your wishes, ie: potty break hours, coats in cold weather, how long (if at all) they can be left alone...

About: Hi, I’m Ally! Animals have always been at the heart of my life—my cat is my best friend, but I truly love and care for every creature I meet. I’ve been caring for pets since childhood, from cats and dogs to small animals, reptiles, amphibians, and birds. My passion for animals led me to pursue formal training in their care. I began taking animal care classes in high school, earned my Associate’s degree in Animal Sciences from Jackson State Community College, and went on to graduate from The University of Tennessee at Martin with a Bachelor’s in Veterinary Technology. I have hands-on experience from two years of volunteering at the Jackson Animal Care Center and have been working in veterinary clinics since 2022. I’m currently a certified veterinary technician at LoveWell Veterinary Services, where I work with a wide variety of animals every day. While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I’ve been a trusted caregiver for friends’ and family’s pets for years. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring health, and providing loving companionship to pets with all kinds of needs. At home, I share my life with a friendly cat and a yorkie who both enjoy meeting new animal friends. I would love the opportunity to give your pets the same care and attention I give my own! I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to have more time for your pets! I am off every other Monday and only work half days on Tuesday and Thursday so even if it says I’m unavailable shoot me a message! As your pet sitter, I will care for your pets as if they were my own—providing them with love, attention, and a safe, comfortable environment. I’ll follow their routine closely, make sure they’re fed and exercised on schedule, and keep them happy with playtime and affection.

“Julia takes great care of our girl!”

“April, Was amazing with my pup Carlos. She helped us out at the last minute. She really took her time at the meet and greet. It was clear from the start she is passionate about caring for animals. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to how pups react to situations. Carlos was at ease with her. We definitely wound have her walk Carlos again.”

About: I offer high-energy walks at any pace your dog needs! If they like a fast paced walk, I’m there. If they like to take their time and sniff, I’m there. I love to get pictures of your pup on walks, not only to show their owner how much they’re enjoying their walk, but to look back on and remember when we first started our walks :) I have been taking care of dogs for the past 6 years and have a true passion for helping dogs. In 2023, I rescued an 8 month old puppy with straight leg syndrome that couldn’t walk without his wheel chair. He’s now a year and 8 months old and able to stand, walk, run, climb 4 stairs, and swim!! He proved he doesn’t need that wheelchair with the help of weekly PT appointments and lots of at home exercises! I am a nanny Monday-Thursdays until 2:00pm. I am available those days after 2:30pm for drop-in visits or dog walking! I am available 24/7 Friday-Sunday for your fur babies! I have two fur babies who are extremely friendly and always love visitors! I have a big yard that is partially fenced in, but will keep dogs on leashes if needed! I have long leashes to give them that “off-leash” feel but still being secure. I also would love to bring your dog on adventures with my dogs (beach trips, trail walks, swimming, etc). :)

“We love Brittany! We've known her for several months now and she has been extremely helpful with our 2 year old Australian Shepherd after moving to a new house. We know that Wilder is being well cared for and doted on when he is with Brittany. We know how much she loves our dog (and all dogs!) so we are completely worry-free when Wilder is with her.”

About: I’ve been helping a friend who has a dog walking business. Sprightly Paws and have enjoyed it so much. We are both members of the Exeter Run Club. My black lab has passed and I miss time spent with dogs. I’m retired and have plenty of time to enjoy walking dogs. Preferably Mon- Fri but sometimes available on weekends. If your dog likes to run, depending on your location I’m happy to run with them. I’m only available for dog walking. I don’t offer any dog sitting or daycare services. I live in Durham,NH right on the Newmarket line.

“Devan was awesome while taking care of my fur baby. She kept in close contact with me and sent me plenty of photos with my boy and his big goofy smile! We’ll definitely have her back up to help when I’m tied up with work.”

About: I have had dogs and other animals since childhood. I currently have 3 dogs of my own and my neighbors rely on me to care for their two dogs when they are away. I am a teacher with summers off, opening up my schedule completely for dog walking. I am available at all times and look forward to working with you and meeting your animals! I am interested in dog walking. I have a large supply of leashes, poop bags, and water bottles/dishes for mid-walk water breaks. I also have a fenced in backyard if any dogs would like to come over and play with my 3 dogs.
