“We are repeat customers, Heather is always so flexible with changing plans and makes everything stress free! Lola loves spending time with her and it's always an adventure at her place!”


“Janelle and Bob took very good care of Maggie. She looked happy and well cared for when we picked her up. She loved running around in their fenced in yard. We will definitely trust them with Maggie again. Highly recommend.”

“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: 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!
“Grace was amazing! She was able to accommodate our dog's personality quirks and we were able to rest easy while Basil stayed with her. She was kind and attentive and gave updates on how our pup was doing. Thanks to Grace we were able to fully relax and enjoy the family wedding we were in town for! I only wish we lived closer so she could be our regular pet sitter!”


About: Looking for something a little more personal than a traditional kennel? I provide a comfortable, home-style boarding experience in a private, cozy sidebarn where your dog can relax, play, and be treated like part of the family while you’re away. I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs and other animals. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I focus on providing individual attention and a low-stress environment tailored to each guest. I’m available most weekends and offer flexible scheduling upon request. I have dogs of my own, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine Dogs enjoy time in the secure fenced areas and, when appropriate, supervised opportunities to explore the five acres of woods. They also have quiet time to rest and relax in the private, cozy side barn.
“Our usual sitter wasn't available for the dates we needed, so I reached out to Jodie. She and her partner were so kind and welcoming to our two dogs, Walter and Gwen. They had a great time, and we were able to enjoy our family visit without any concerns. Thank you both so much!”

“Nicole was amazing! She sent me messages and pictures of my Riley everyday. This was my puppers first time away from home and was anxious. However, Nicole was able to calm her and she was fine, which calmed my worries. I will definitely be asking her to watch my girl again.”

“Michelle was terrific! Ellie stayed with her for Thanksgiving weekend and came home happy and tired! She was well-loved and Michelle kept us updated with pics and videos… and was super responsive and proactive before and during the entire experience. Thank you Michelle!”

“Hailey was fantastic with our pups. She sent us pictures and updates for them to help set our minds at ease. There was plenty of room outside for our dogs to run and play. When we picked up our dogs, they were happy and playful. They were very clearly well taken care of. We will definitely use Hailey again.”

“Lauren sat for my pup Ellie. She's great! She made sure to ask about feedings, quirks, special needs, and sent a bunch of pictures so that I felt comfortable. Ellie was super happy and enjoyed her sleepover. I'd highly recommend Lauren!”


“Ashley was a very professional, attentive, and caring sitter. We left our dog with her for almost a week, and he came back very happy and tired. (He's still sleeping it off I think!) I would definitely recommend Ashley to others!”

“Emily & Kevin are absolutely the best! Milo had never been boarded. I hesitated to leave him however, after the meet and greet I had absolutely no reservations. From the time he arrived at their home they completely dedicated their time and energy to him. This was not just for one day, but THREE. I was kept up to date throughout each day about how he was doing and was sent pictures of his adventures with them. I cannot say enough good things about this couple and the quality of service they provide. If you want a worry-free time away from your baby (Milo is definitely my baby)… I recommend them to anyone without hesitation!”

About: I am a responsible, reliable, and intuitive dog lover, who will care for your dog as if they were my own. I understand the importance of showing up when scheduled and tailoring the service to your dog's individual needs. I grew up with family dogs since birth, and have cared for my own dogs over the past 20 years. I started my own professional dog walking and sitting business in 2018. I have experience with many different breeds, ages, and abilities. Through my dog walking business, I also have extensive experience walking small groups of dogs off-leash in nature. If you are interested in this service, I have two female golden retrievers who would be thrilled to join your dog on an adventure hike, providing enrichment, socialization, fun, and lots of exercise! I've recently relocated to Strafford, NH so I'm looking forward to building my clientele in a new area! I serve the Southern Lakes Region of NH. Please note: -Boarding and Sitting Nightly Rates include potty breaks in the morning and evening, as well as a 30 minute drop-in visit or private walk midday. Additional time for the midday walk, adventure hikes, or additional walks may be added on at a discounted rate. Dog care is my full-time job and life! Drop-In Visits & Walks: I'm available Monday through Friday, 8am-4pm, for walks and drop-in visits, with some after-hours availability on an as-needed basis (please note, after hours requests may incur an additional fee). Overnight Sitting & Boarding: Available 7 days/week. Since I care for many dogs during the week, your dog may be hanging out at home for a period of time while I walk other dogs or run errands. Other than that, I'll be home with your dog! Your dog will be treated the same as my dogs, and that means they will be the center of my attention! Boarding: This is a very calm and quiet household (with the exception of some barking) - no kids. My two female golden retrievers (2yrs & 10yrs) are allowed on our couches, so yours would be too if you allow it. Your dog is welcome to sleep in my husband's and my bedroom, or downstairs in the living room/kitchen if they prefer a cool tile/wood floor. Free-range dogs are welcome and crate training is not required unless your dog is destructive or unsafe when left unattended. Please bring your dog's crate if needed, as well as their bed, food, and any other items they may need. We have a fenced in yard to let them out for potty-breaks and to play with each other as well. Overnight Sitting: I have many years of experience staying in clients' homes with their dogs. In addition to caring for your dog(s), I'm happy to take in mail/packages and water house plants. If you want, I can even bring one or both of my dogs with me to provide socialization and companionship.

“Diana and Jeff were very accommodating. The meet and greet went well and even though they already had a boarder they made sure their time was focused for my two dogs. Communication was key in coordination for both sides and Diana was extremely flexible (Thanks so much). When I picked my dogs up they were properly harnessed, fed and ready to go. I definitely recommend this home of dog lovers for your fur babies.”
“This is the first time we used Rover and I was a nervous dog mom for sure! One of the things that I appreciated the most was every time I emailed Leilani, she would get back to me right away. She provided pictures and updates and took great care of our senior golden and our puppy, who had just had surgery a week before his stay with her. Thank you Leilani!”

About: I have been pet sitting for years. I have owned cats dogs and birds. I love all animals. I will not take any chances with anyone’s pet and care for them exactly how you wish. I recently lost my best friend, my 14 1/2 year old dog who was diabetic and had flares of Pancreatitis. I can give insulin shots and understand the needs of a diabetic pet. I usually start working late morning , so I can walk in the mornings. I generally work about 7 hours. If I am pet sitting, I will try to work a little less, so the pets aren’t home alone for long periods. I will care for your pet however they need. I can walk them, sit in a yard with them or take them to a favorite walking spot. I can administer medication if needed, I recently lost my dog who was diabetic. I can test blood sugar and administer insulin

It IS the daily routine, 24/7, no days off, no holidays. Our dogs are members of our family. I care for others animals just like I would want ours to be cared for.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Franklin is $54 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $87 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 185 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Franklin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Franklin 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 Franklin home-away-from-home, 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 Franklin.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Franklin 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 , 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 .
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.
