“Finn is the second dog we have boarded with Michael. He is still a puppy. He was very happy at Michael’s and kept all of his good habits that he has learned so far! Great home and family atmosphere, the best.”

“Reesi and Tanner made themselves right at home with Sindy and her family within a few minutes after arriving there. We were a bit concerned about how they might adjust in a new place with new people, but we soon discovered we didn't have to worry at all. We were able to leave them for the day and not worry about a thing. Sindy even sent us several pictures of them throughout the day to let us know they were safe and sound while we were able to enjoy our 4-year-old grandson's birthday party in another state. We highly recommend Sindy when you need someone to care for your pets while away!”

My dogs got along great with her two dogs and came home tired and happy. Would definitely recommend Roxi and her family and can’t wait to book with her again!”

Our dog got all the stimulation he needed and was well cared for. I loved seeing his cute face through pictures while I was away. I’m for sure going to be a repeat customer and highly recommend.”

He was very welcoming when we stopped by for a visit prior to booking and our dog loved him right away. During our vacation he sent us videos and made sure Rocky’s needs were met. We will definitely book Gabriel again when needing boarding care.”

About: Ive been a dog trainer for about 4 years. I specialize in reactive dog handling and went through intense training myself in Maine for 6 months to be able to do what I do & would love to work with your dog/dogs. I have training in working with all type of breeds & temperaments. I currently work part-time as a dog trainer, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and training sessions throughout the week, with the most flexibility in the afternoons and evenings. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a structured, low-stress environment by sticking to your dog’s routine as closely as possible while also reinforcing calm behavior and good habits. I have experience handling dogs of all temperaments, including reactive and high-energy dogs, and I’m always mindful of body language and triggers to prevent issues before they start.

Tamsin can be a little shy, but Liza runs a very dog-friendly house: nap time on the sofa, plenty of play time in her large fenced-in back yard. Tam fit right in. This was Tam's first time staying with Liza. She'll be happy to return!”

“Aya and Abdullah took excellent care of my 2 cats. My cats were both rescues and I was unsure of how they would behave in a new environment with other cats. Aya made sure they were gradually introduced and felt comfortable in their own private space. She provided regular updates and pics. The cats seemed so happy where they were and also very happy when I brought them home, no bad habits developed duringn their 2 week stay. I wholeheartedly recommend Aya and Abdullah! Thanks again!!”

“Kat is a great doggo host. She is very knowledgeable about K9's and treated my pup like her own. She is very communicative, sends pictures while your pup is staying with her along with any updates on the shenanigans going on while staying with her. My dog assimilated well with her host pack and I would HIGHLY recommend her if you need daycare, training or boarding. Her energy is great & I enjoyed my time away knowing my dog was in EXCELLENT HANDS. Thanks again Kat!!!!!!!!”

Brooke was fantastic! She was super great with the meet and greet to make sure our dog would be okay there, then the actual boarding, we couldn't be more happy. Brooke had great communication, updated us every day with pictures and a couple of videos while Grace was with her. She was super caring for Grace too. Making sure she had great playtime with some new friends, and some toys. She took great care in ensuring Grace's favorite toy (that she brings with her everywhere) was kept for her so it wouldn't get damaged or lost. Brooke is top notch and a great dog sitter!

There are 916 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Merrimack. About 93% of Merrimack sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

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.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
