“Amanda and her family provided wonderful care for our dog Toby. He had plenty of outdoor playtime and inside cuddle time with her kids. Will absolutely love to bring Toby back to Amanda for future care.”
“Joshua watched our two German Shepherds for a week while we went on vacation. It was the first time someone other than family watched our pets and we were very anxious about it. After our meet and greet at Joshua’s home we were immediately put at ease. While away Joshua sent us almost daily updates with photos so we could see how our dogs were doing. They were having the best time and enjoying a vacation of their own. One of our dogs required daily medications which was not a problem. We can’t thank Joshua enough for taking such great care of our pets and allowing us the ability to enjoy our vacation without worry. We highly recommend Joshua and will definitely have him watch our pets again in the future!”
“Juliana and family have watched Charlie several times and he is so happy and it's like he is going on vacation too. They send photos and he loves playing with their dogs and kids. I can't recommend them enough ❤️🐾❤️🐾”
“Lindsay was so awesome! I was nervous about never having left my 9 month old pup with anyone before, but once I got to her home and met her, her adorable little girl, and the other pups running around playing, I was so at ease. Her place is clean and cozy, easy access to a great yard, and Lindsay was so very attentive. I felt 100% comfortable leaving my pup in her care, especially after I started receiving updates and photos/videos of their time and activities. Would highly recommend!”
“I recently boarded my dog with Daria for the first time, and I was a bit nervous since it was my dog's first experience staying in a stranger's house. However, Daria was amazing! She made my dog feel comfortable and at ease right away. The updates and pictures she sent showed how well my dog was adapting and enjoying the stay. Her kindness and attention to detail made all the difference. I highly recommend Daria for anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter, especially for first-timers!”
About: I’ve taken care of and owned dogs my entire life. I grew up with a 20lb Cockapoo named Bentley, and have had my lovely Lady (a 4 year old husky/cur mix with lots of energy) for 3 years now. I am a formidable and patient obedience trainer and can help train up any dog on how to walk properly, come, sit, and other basic commands. I have a strong understanding of dog body language and am proactive about the safety and comfortability of the dogs I encounter. I can handle everything from gentle older doggos to young energetic pups. I am going to be leaving to join the US Army in late December, and decided that with the time I have left at home I want to be able to enjoy it. I currently work an overnight shift for the post office and would love for this to be the job that is able to support me before I leave for basic training. I love to get outside and play with my dog, I figured this would be an awesome way to spend my time, and help out some fellow dog owners along the way! I keep the safety of my animals paramount, whether that’s driving in the car or walking down the road, I am always keen and proactive when it comes to safety.
“Kayla and Michael were awesome! They sent lots of pictures and kept us updated on our boys. They had a nice big yard that our dogs loved. Our boys came home happy and healthy. We will definitely use them again when we are back in the area!”
“Ashton was amazing!! I could tell my dogs got lots of love and they enjoyed their stay. Not only was Ashton available and accommodating for our last-minute request, but he was communicative and put my mind at ease about leaving my big goof balls for the weekend. Will definitely be using Ashton and family again!”
“Tucker needed boarding for a night and loves other dogs, so Joe seemed like a great fit with his own dog being there. I got picture and video updates and Tucker had a great time. When there was a mix up of dog supply bags he went above and beyond to get things worked out. Highly recommend.”
“she was super great! took very good care of my dog and i’ll definitely bring him back to her sent me plenty of videos and photos to make sure he was having a great time and i love it! thank you so much”
“Hands down the best sitter we’ve ever had for our dog! We were desperate for a last minute dog sitter and came across Katelyn on Rover! From the meet and greet to her actual boarding stay, Katelyn has been so great! She sent so many photos, was on top of it with the communication and assured us that Millie was in the best of hands! I couldn’t recommend her more. Already looking forward to our upcoming bookings with her!”
“Kimberlie was fantastic! We left our pup with her for 4 days at the last minute and she was nothing short of amazing in her updates, structure, playtime and overall care she gave to Bernie. I highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for someone to take care of their dog with as much love as they do...Bernie almost did not want to come back with us :) We will definitely be booking with Kimberlie again in the future, thank you!”
About: I am a lifetime dog lover and would love to care for your dog like they were my own. My last dog, Finn, gained his angel wings in June and was with me for 15 amazing years. I'd like to continue caring for other pups in his honor! I am also an approved foster for a local dog rescue, and have experience with puppies, mama dogs, and older dogs. I am very happy to care for older dogs as they hold a special place in my heart! If your dog boards with me, they will get tons of love, snuggles, exercise and walks, and have a safe place to be while you are away. My goal is to make my home their second favorite place to be :) I currently work from home full time and have a very flexible schedule. I do have two school aged children at home, so we have a very consistent daily and weekly routine. Until recently, we had a dog at home, so pet care fits very naturally into our days. We have a large back yard away from the road. It is not fenced in, but I will take your pet out on a leash for bathroom breaks, walking for exercise and some supervised playing! There will not be any outside time that is unsupervised. I am very familiar with crate trained dogs or with uncrated dogs as long as they are safe outside of the crate (as in they are old enough not to eat dangerous things etc). If you have a puppy that is not house trained yet, I request that they be in a crate for night time. Inside the home, they will have access only to the floor that I am on at the moment, so as to keep them safe and out of trouble! We have plenty of gates and other items to block off different parts of the house. Mostly they will just be hanging out with me! I also have an octagon style play pen for puppies.
“Our dog was in great hands for 4 days over the July 4th holiday weekend! Vanessa was very easy and flexible on drop off and pick up and sent plenty of pictures throughout the boarding time! Beautiful home and neighborhood for all dogs!”
“My pup had a wonderful time with Heather and her family. They took great care of him and let me know how he was doing. They were able to take him on relatively short notice which I really appreciate. Thanks!”
“Henry had a wonderful time, he got plenty of love and activity. It was just as much of a vacation for him as it was for me, and I got plenty of picture updates to know you was doing well while I went away. As always, Laura and her family and home were wonderful and a safe and comfortable place for Henry to have a mini vacation.”
“Brihana is amazing!! I could tell my pup had a great time, because every picture sent she looked so happy! Brihana gave the perfect amount of updates and photos, has great clean home, and big yard for dogs. Overall Brihana is an awesome and very caring person. I hope to have her watch my dog again!! ?”
“Ava was incredible! She went above and beyond to exercise Millie throughout the day, send photos and videos, and give her lots of love. Millie was allowed on the bed and the couch and we felt so comfortable leaving her with Ava for 5 days! I Highly recommend her!”

Katherine was very kind and provided plenty updates and pictures. Our pup was himself when we picked him up, cheerful and full of energy. grateful for the great care she provided while we were on vacation. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind sitter 😊
Jessica was great. She responded to my last minute request for 2 weeks of boarding for two dogs even though I was a first-time client. The dogs were well cared for. She responded to my text messages ("How are they?") quickly and sometimes with a picture. Most important, the dogs came home happy and healthy. I am very grateful.
Stephanie has been an outstanding pet sitter, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have her. She is always accommodating to our needs, dependable, and genuinely caring. What really sets Stephanie apart is how sincerely she cares not only about Marley, but also about my mom. She goes above and beyond to make sure Marley is happy and well cared for, while also giving my mom a wonderful sense of comfort and reassurance. Her kindness, flexibility, and compassion mean so much to our family. We highly recommend her!
Mr.Fritz absolutely loves coming here. As soon as he walks in, I’m chopped liver. As an older dog who is now dealing with some anxiety and resistance to change, it’s so nice to have a place where he can go and be completely relaxed and comfortable the whole time. Thanks for being the best sitter!
My dogs stayed with Savannah for a weekend and everyone seemed to have a great time! She was easy to communicate with leading up to the booking and sent me updates and pictures during their stay. I will be reaching back out if I have any more trips coming up in the future!
I highly recommend Madison to anyone who needs a dog sitter! Madison was very professional, responsive and caring. From our initial meet and greet to when it came time to pick up our dog Molly, Madison was very responsive and you can tell she loves dogs. We received a lot of pictures and updates from Madison while we were away. Thank you Madison!!
Darwin is really passionate about his doggy day care! I can tell that Zero has had a fun day every time I pick him up or dropped off by how excitable he is. Darwin sends picture updates throughout the day and makes sure Zero gets his steps in. Darwin’s space is nice and cozy, and my favorite photo has been of Zero sleeping on the living room bean bag. Darwin has even offered to do extra drop/off pick ups because his yoga studio is close to my neighborhood lol. I highly recommend Darwin for your doggy day, Zero and us thank you!
Madison was very responsive and equally responsible. We weren’t worried about Ginger at all. She sent us pictures of Ginger and was also accommodating when we were 1/2 hour late for pick up. I’d totally recommend Madison! Thanks so much, Madison! I’m sure Ginger loved it with you ❤️
We had such a wonderful experience with Amanda! She took incredible care of my dog and made him feel so loved and comfortable. It was clear from the start how much she genuinely cares - Pickles had the best time with her. She was very communicative throughout, sending updates that gave us total peace of mind. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely book with her again.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Manchester is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $67 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 November 2026, there are 747 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Manchester. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
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 dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Manchester 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 Manchester 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 Manchester.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Manchester. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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 Manchester 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll 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.
