“Highly recommend! We use Josh for dog walks and couldn’t be happier. Our dogs LOVE Josh and so do we. He is extremely dependable, an amazing communicator, and treats our girls like their one of his own. One of our girls can be very reactive towards other dogs while on walks and Josh took the time to help with this. He was even able to include one of his dogs on a walk with our reactive pup after some training. The walk went great and we can see such a difference in our girls behavior for the better! We truly couldn’t ask for better care for our girls. 10/10!”
About: Hi there! Trusting someone with your fur baby isn’t easy—and it shouldn’t be. Every pet deserves individualized care, patience, kindness, and most of all, genuine love. With over 7 years of hands-on animal care experience, you can feel confident you’ve found someone who truly understands that. I started at just 14 as a zookeeper’s aide in Boston, and have since spent years dog walking and pet sitting throughout the Greater Boston area. I’ve recently relocated to New Hampshire and am so excited to meet some new furry friends! Whether it’s a peaceful walk, playtime, or just giving your pet the attention they deserve, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. Let’s get started—your pup is already dreaming of fresh air, paws in the grass, and a few well-earned treats I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on your pet’s needs. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting throughout the week, with more open availability in the afternoons and on weekends. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pet gets consistent, reliable care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I have one dog and two cats at home, and I maintain a calm, structured environment. My dog is on the more sensitive side, which has made me especially attentive to reading behavior, body language, and creating a low-stress atmosphere for every pet in my care. I take introductions slowly and thoughtfully, and I’m always able to separate pets when needed to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I focus more on structured, engaging walks rather than free roaming. All outdoor time is closely supervised and secure, giving your dog both physical exercise and mental stimulation in a safe, controlled way. I’m also happy to crate if that’s part of your dog’s routine and will follow your care instructions closely to keep things consistent and stress-free.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since a young age, I frequently take care of my family’s dogs when they are busy or on vacation, I also take care of friends dogs if they need me to stop in while their at work or something came up they can’t stop at home for a minute. I’ve been an LNA for 4 years. I love taking care of people and pets! I work Mon-Friday but I am free weekends and sometimes weekends just shoot me a message! I am very flexible with hours depending on the day I come to your home to let your dog out, I make sure I let you know when I’ve arrived and when I’m leaving. :)
About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats in my household throughout my lifetime and I love getting to know all their different personalities. I currently have an open schedule whenever my service is needed! I can match the pet's vibe and have no issues giving as much attention as needed. I will follow all requirements as requested to make sure your pet has the best experience with me as their sitter. Ex: walks, ensuring they are fed and taken care of, and taking them outside to the bathroom when needed. I will provide attention and check in with the owner with updates and ask questions if necessary.
“Olivia has been such a blessing to help break up the day for my newly rescued pup, Woody. She is kind, patient, friendly, responsive and is a great communicator. She takes her time with Woody never seemingly rushing or overwhelming him. She takes his ques when he’s anxious on walks and wants to return home pivoting to a play session out back or inside with his toys and giving me a debriefing. I was anxious about utility Roover at first with some friends poor experiences. My anxiety quickly disappeared after a brief FaceTime to connect prior to Woodys first walk. Woody and I certainly got lucky with finding Olivia to be apart of our days/weeks. Thank you Olivia for being you, we are truly grateful for you.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for friends and family for about 14 years. I started off helping my older sisters. I have dogs, cats and a ball python at home. I had a bearded dragon that recently passed. I’ve also house sat and watch horses, goats, ducks and chickens for about 7 years. Message me with any questions. At the moment I’m very flexible because I’m not working. I’m in online school and have a baby (born June 2025) that will be coming with me. Send me a message and I’d love to talk and see if I’d be a good fit. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats in my home, as well as a ball python. I have a fenced in backyard and have a baby born June of 2025.
About: Hi, I'm Nikki – lifelong dog mom and animal lover! I’ve been a pet owner my entire life, and today I’m the proud pet parent to three amazing dogs and one very vocal cat. Animals aren’t just pets in our home—they’re family. 🐾 Meet My Pack: Sophie is our sweet senior girl, a 12-year-old Lab/Shepherd/Chow mix I rescued as a puppy. She loves dinner at 4 PM sharp and is the queen of cozy naps. Simon is our 5-year-old Pitbull/Boxer mix and the world’s biggest snuggler. He’s 68 pounds of lapdog energy and affection. Phoebe, almost 3, is a Pit/Staffie/mutt mix and our first-ever foster fail. She had a rough start but has blossomed into an incredibly well-behaved, loving companion. Khloe the cat rounds out our crew—she’s 14 going on 4, always meowing for attention (and snacks). We love hiking, lake swims, and long neighborhood walks. Our home has a fenced-in yard for safe playtime and we go on daily walks—morning and afternoon. 🐶 What You Can Expect: I treat every dog I watch as if they’re my own. Whether your pup is here for a quick visit or an extended stay, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. Our dogs are friendly with people and other animals. Phoebe can be a little selective when new dogs come into the home, so we always schedule a meet and greet before doggy daycare or boarding to make sure everyone is comfortable. 📅 Availability: I was recently laid off, so my schedule is wide open. Even when I’m working, I work from home full-time and am always around to give dogs the love and attention they deserve. Pet care is the heart of my daily routine. I start each morning with a walk and breakfast for my dogs, followed by outdoor playtime in our fenced yard. In the afternoons, we go for a second walk or enjoy a trip to the lake or local trails. I’m home full-time, so I’m always around for feeding, potty breaks, cuddles, and anything else your pet may need throughout the day. Weekends usually include longer hikes or outdoor adventures. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment with plenty of structure and play. We have a fully fenced yard for outdoor time, daily walks, and lots of cuddle time inside. I follow your pet’s routine closely—meals, meds, potty breaks, and any special instructions—to keep them happy and stress-free. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize consistency and comfort. I stick to your pet’s schedule, keep things tidy, and send regular updates so you know your pet is safe and well-loved. Whether I’m providing boarding, daycare, or drop-ins, I always care for animals as if they’re my own.
About: I’ve loved animals since that day I could say “dog” or “cat”. I’ve never lived a life without pets and couldn’t imagine a life without them. They make me so happy! I currently have 2 part time jobs, but am fully available evenings and weekends! Every weekday after 5pm or weekends at anytime! Please reach out to me with questions ! Me and my boyfriend live and have a cat together. At my parent’s home, we have one little 10 year old Shih-Tzu that loves other dogs. I cannot accommodate your pets in my home but I can watch your pets in your home!
About: We treat animals as parents would with a child. It's all about knowing that every creature has a personality of their own and taking the appropriate approach for positive behavior and training. We work full-time, yet we make time for evening walks with our youngest dog (if the temperature is bearable). On the weekends, we take her for 1-2 walks within the two days. Late Spring to mid Fall is the best time for outdoor fun. We have another older dog that is crate trained if they need to be caged in because of visitors. If a dog is trained well enough to not run off, we do have a wide open backyard they can run around in.
About: I grew up with a lot of different pets. I had three cats and one dog in my adult life. They are no longer with me so I enjoy taking care of and boarding my friend’s animals when they are away. I really enjoy taking care of cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes. I own my own bookkeeping business and primarily work from home. I have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. I am looking forward to having a little company during my work day. I have a large second floor apartment and a fenced in yard. I live in the North End of Manchester so the neighborhood walks are nice and safe. I live close to Stark Park and Livingston Park for walking trails.
About: I've always had animals in my life since the day I was born. I was brought up to love all creatures big and small. My true passion and love in this life is for the animals. I have worked with mainly cats and dogs. Volunteered in many animal shelters in NH and CT. At one time I lived in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico where I helped run an animal shelter. Saving many animals from bad situations. I also went around to the schools down there educating the children on how to care for an animal. When I moved back to the USA I started volunteering at my vet where I brought my dogs for care. My vet ran a rescue called All Better Pets. She turned it over to us volunteers. We created a Board where I became Treasurer. I have no children so my animals are my children. This is just a brief description of the many things I have done to help. Thank you for reading this and Happy Tails!! I am an LNA and currently I work Monday through Friday with seniors through a private company. I would eventually like to get back into working with animals full time. I am looking to walk, feed and or care for your furbaby in your home. Currently I can not Board an animal as my friend who I live with has 3 cats, 1 which is old and sick. Sorry! Currently in my home we have 3 cats. Our dog has passed. They have free range of the home and many places to look out the windows along with climbing towers etc. When my dog was alive she had an electric fence where she was free to roam while we were home.
“Ben is awesome! I had a last-minute walker cancel on me through Wag, so this was my first time using Rover. Ben stepped in last minute and was there for both my family and Monty when we really needed someone. He was incredibly accommodating, reliable, and kind, and he was absolutely wonderful with Monty. It was clear that Monty was comfortable and well cared for with him. Ben went above and beyond to accommodate us, and I truly appreciate it. I highly recommend Ben and would absolutely use him again!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and am very comfortable caring for them day-to-day. I understand dogs’ routines, body language, and needs, and I treat every dog with patience, attention, and care I currently work part time at a retail store so I’m not usually busy depending on the day but my day to day may vary I care for pets by following their routine closely, making sure they’re fed, exercised, and comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own dogs.
About: Hi, my name is Heidi and I love to pet sit! I'm 35 years old and I have been pet sitting all kinds of animals since I was young. I have experience sitting animals (cats, dogs, rabbits, etc.) overnight as well as feeding, administering medications, walking and playing with dogs, cats, etc. I love animals and enjoy hanging out with them. Currently I work full-time with children and adolescents as a licensed clinical mental health counselor. I do pet sitting on the side according to clients’ needs. When I care for pets, I go to the owners’ homes and provide drop-in visits for cats, provide dog walks, spend time with each pet, and ensure their safety and comfort.
“Michelle has walked our pup Annie a number of times this summer, whenever I am traveling for work. Annie is super timid at first and Michelle was very patient and accommodating with her - literally walking her around the yard until she was ready to venture further.”
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Manchester is $25

Absolutely incredible! Truly the best experience I could have asked for. She took such amazing care of my pup and went above and beyond in every possible way. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such caring, attentive, and trustworthy hands. The communication was fantastic, and it was so clear how much genuine love and care she puts into what she does. I honestly could not recommend her more highly. She is an absolute gem, and I would trust her with my pup again in a heartbeat. If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would!
We love Taylor! So friendly, loving and observant with Loki. Loki is a special boy and needs special care that Taylor gives to Loki. Always communicates and is patient with this anxious dog mom and all my notes and messages. We are so lucky to have you to help us! Thank you for everything you do and how helpful you are. 💚
Lochlann!!! You are very sweet and I respect where you stand with animals. Thank you for everything, Alula has been much less anxious since you have been spending daily time with her. I couldn’t ask for anything more. I am so thankful for your help. I will continue her service with you as long as I can, thank you again❤️
Charlene was so incredible to have helping me out – pretty last minute – with my pups and kitty. She communicated wonderfully and adapted to many changes that came up. One of our pups gets extremely anxious and with mommy gone & his brother injured, it was worse than normal. When the dog walks were doing him more harm than good, she pivoted and did some playtime with him at home instead. ❤️ My MIL, who was staying at the house, really raved about her & said how amazing she was with all of them, taking time to really love on all of them every day. I would absolutely ask Charlene to come back!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Manchester is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $33 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,956 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Manchester. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Manchester. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Manchester after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Manchester. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
