I'm a stay at home mom so your pet will get lots of attention each day. I'll take special care of your furry friends! I'm a stay at home mom of three small children. We currently have two cats of our own so your pet will just fall into our routine each day. I live on a quiet side road without a fenced in yard.

âShauni is an amazing sitter who is very communicative and treated my dogs like her own. She also went above and beyond when my car broke down en route and was a real life saver. Moose and Iggy will be returning!â

About: I have 1 dog of my own and love caring for yours while you're away! I have many years of pet sitting experience and have been very involved with several pet rescue groups. I am very comfortable administering medications and with any other special requests. Can't wait to meet your 4 legged family member! I am an educator and am off for holidays and the summer. I work during the day, but am available for early morning or afternoon/evening visits Mon-Fri and on weekends. I love spending time with animals and will treat yours like they're my own! I would love to take your dog for a special outing. I am very responsible and will send regular updates while you're away. As far as boarding in my home, it would be best if it is an older dog with a relaxed temperament. My dog is very sweet, but puppies stress her out. :) I am currently off for the summer, so I am home all day. I can work around your pup's schedule and will have lots of time to spend with them! I live at the lake and there are lots of great places to walk close by. If your dog loves swimming, there is a beach within walking distance. I am off on weekends and holidays, so I have lots of time for your pup! My dog goes everywhere with me, so I'll love spending time with yours! I live alone with my dog, so I have lots of time and attention to give. I am off during the summer and on holidays, so they can go out as much as needed!
âBriahna was amazing! This is our second time booking with her and our dogs love their time! She took the time to give our dogs a bath and brush them and even provided a new harness when our dogs gentle leader broke! We will continue to book with Briahna!â

âThank you Ashley for everything! My dog Winston stayed with Ashley this past week and she was excellent. She made me feel very confident that she cared and loved my dog while I was away. She was flexible and willing to work with my dog's special needs. She was in constant contact and sent photos on the regular. Her home was clean and had a great yard for my dog. I highly recommend Ashley :) THANK YOU!â

âGrace 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!â

âWe can't say enough good things about our experience. Emma was a delight. She made Tuckie a part of their family. This was our first experience with leaving Tuckie and Emma put us right at ease along witb tuckie who went with her withkut issues. She was extremely accommodating and professional. Tuckie looks forward to his next adventure. We would definitely recommend Emma's services.â

About: I have been dog sitting for my granddogs for over 10 years. I enjoy their company and snuggles. I am retired and love the company of dogs. I am home most days and have a flexible schedule. I have time to walk your dog and give them lots of love and snuggles. I have my granddog Monday-Friday. He and I go on little hikes when the weather is good. I brush him weekly and give him lots of attention.
âThis 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!â

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 Iâm 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 petâs schedule, feeding time/bathroom breaks, etc, their stay here will be treated as if they are at home
âAlthea is our absolute favorite sitter (and our dog's!) Our boy Hugo is always excited to head over there and enjoys the company of other dogs she is boarding/doing daycare for. The daily walk to the lake, the open space to romp, the pictures and updates all make Althea well-worth it. She is SO professional and really works to ensure each dog's comfort.â

Our lovely Lucy Maud had a fantastic 16 day stay!! we got some updated photos every few days and when we picked her up, she was almost torn between coming with us and staying here with little kids and chickens and all of the various things that come with small farming life. It was such a joy to be able to get away for a vacation and not worry about our pets! Thank you so much!

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 dogâs regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Gilmanton can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dogâs 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 dogâs 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 Gilmanton 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 Gilmanton.
Tip: You can upload your dogâs routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

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 Gilmanton sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of youâand 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.

The Rover Guarantee is Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 dogâs vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitterâs 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, youâre 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. Youâll 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.
