About: For the past 7 to 10 years I have provided reliable high quality pet care for friends family and clients like maintaining a flawless track record with zero complaints. My family and I are proud owners of a 7-year-old large breed dog and a small cat I have first hand experience managing completely different personalities energy levels and dietary routines under One roof I understand the unique dynamics of large breeds including waste manners strength management and space needs as well as the delicate patient care required for smaller dogs. Whether your pet is an energetic giant or a quiet companion they will receive structured attentive and safe care tailored strictly to their routine I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule during the week and weekends off. During the week my family is available to help take care of any boarder we may have. My yard is unfenced but we have several hook points so your dog can still relax outdoors while being closely monitored from our back porch or walked around on leash in our back yard or in the large field behind our house

Jessica and her family were lifesavers! They took our two dogs last minute and loved on them so well. They did such a good job of integrating our dogs and sending lots of pictures during their stay. Our dogs came back so happy.

About: Hi! I’m Belle, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family members as if they were my own. I have years of hands-on experience with pet sitting, pet care, and pet grooming, and I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’m committed to providing them with personalized, loving care while you’re away. I live in a house with plenty of land, giving dogs a safe and spacious environment to run, explore, and enjoy the outdoors (always with your preferences and safety in mind). My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, happy, and stress-free while you’re gone. I understand that every pet and family has unique needs, so I offer flexible scheduling whenever possible and am happy to discuss pricing if needed. I believe quality pet care should be accessible, and I’m always willing to work with owners to find something that fits their situation. You can expect plenty of updates, photos, and communication while your pet is with me, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, experienced hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the week, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I’m happy to accommodate whatever schedule or routine works best for you and your pet. Whether your pet needs early morning walks, midday check-ins, overnight care, medication, or extra playtime and attention, I’m committed to providing reliable, personalized care that fits their needs and keeps them happy and comfortable. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and explore, with a large yard for supervised outdoor time. I always follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love and attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I’ll provide walks, playtime, fresh food and water, clean up after them, administer medications if needed, and give them plenty of affection. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

Lori was easy to communicate with, and very patient and sweet towards an elderly dog with health issues. Maggie still got daily walks and exercise with the others and had an absolute blast under Lori’s care. Thank you so much, Lori! We will definitely be contacting you again!

About: Our family has had dogs ever since our grown son was a child. We have owned and loved three dogs. As a retiree, I am happy to board your well-behaved, adult dog in my country home. Your dog will be the only dog I care for and will receive my full attention, as I will only care for one dog at a time. I'm retired and have plenty of time to spend with your dog. I love to walk in good weather and if your dog behaves on leash, I am happy to take your dog on safe, country hikes. If not, I have a large, fenced in yard for your dog to play in. I will treat your well-behaved dog as a family member. Our home is a quiet, relaxed setting, and a great environment for senior or fearful dogs. If you live nearby, I prefer doing a "meet and greet" with your dog prior to boarding to enable a smooth transition when it's boarding time.

This was our first time with Anna Julia. I really appreciated the communication back and forth before our dog’s stay. The drop off was super easy and Lady, our dog just went into her house, hopped on the couch and asked for belly rubs! You can tell that dogs are loved in this house! We had spotty reception because we were out camping but Anna Julia did send pictures and reassured us Lady was doing great and so my worry eased away. Pick up was super easy as well and we know that Lady will be staying with Anna Julia again. We already booked her future stays.

Missy is terrific! Very lucky to have found her to care for our 2 yr old English Golden. Great communication, regular updates, pictures, lots of outdoor activities, and our pup clearly loved and and was comfortable w Missy and her family, human and canine (Charlie). Brix was very happy and relaxed when she got home. :-) Highly recommend!

FAQs for Boarding - Gorham

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Gorham on Rover is $29.4 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 21 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Gorham. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Gorham 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 Gorham.

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.

You and your Gorham 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.
