About: I grew up surrounded by pets and have never lived in a house without dogs! My dog Roux, inspired me to turn this passion of mine into a full-time career. I currently work full-time providing professional pet care with a local dog service. References are happily available upon request! I do this as a full-time job so I can be very flexible on timing and scheduling. I always try to accommodate last minute requests! At my place I have a big yard as well as many walking trails nearby that I often take my dog roux on! When house sitting, I treat your home with respect and provide care while keeping your pet comfortable, happy, and safe in their own environment.
“Diana was absolutely amazing with Nash! I can’t wait to use her services again! Nash went on plenty of walks her property is a dogs heaven. She sent so many pictures and updates! Truly the best possible experience!”
“My girl had a spectacular weekend. So much so she didn't want to go home :) I think she fell in love with the kids. I was a bit worried about her raw diet as some people can't handle it. Austin had no issues at all. The updates and pictures were a lovely bonus. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for boarding.”
“Karen was able to take us on short notice for 1 night. We were able to go on our trip with no worries. Aspen had a nice time socializing with other pups. We will definitely keep Karen in mind for any future trips.”
“Katelyn provided phenomenal care for my 5 year old golden retriever named Scooby, with updates and photos of Scooby during his stay. Katelyn has a great property with a fenced in yard that allowed my dog to play off leash with her friendly pups. Her family was loving towards my dog and I look forward to connecting with them again for further dog sitting experiences.”
“Bri was exactly who we were looking for! Our dog Charlie is somewhat anxious and not very social with other dogs so we really didn’t want to leave him in a traditional boarding facility for a week. Bri was happy to take care of Charlie and showed him so much love and attention! She has a clean home and lots of outdoor space and trails for walks. Couldn’t be happier with our experience!”
“Kelly took excellent care of my dog while I was away for the weekend, and she was so communicative and kept me totally up to date. She was also so patient when my pup unfortunately had an upset tummy! Thank you Kelly!”
About: I love to make sure your babies are happy, safe and comfortable so that you can enjoy your time away without worry. I’m a teacher/social worker by trade, so I’m patient, kind and caring. Special needs or requests are not an issue. My consistent communication and caring for your pets as my own is what makes me your best choice! I’m a social worker, so I’m off on weekends routinely, which coincides with families wanting time away. Occasionally available weeknights for walks or drop ins. Weekends are more flexible, and I’m usually more available. I generally prefer boarding in my home and my routine is planned around your babies. Their needs are my priority! Happy to provide care in my home for dogs on weekends. Walking trails and small yard. Other dogs are plentiful here, but-I will always keep your dog leashed at all times. I’m not against an occasional pup cup trip but have also respected meat-based, gluten free and hypoallergenic diets as well. Only one dog (family) at a time.
“We had a last-minute out-of-town trip come together, and Khaila jumped in to help — she and her son were just lovely. Our pup, Rosie, is only 4 months old, and Khaila was gracious and patient with all of her puppy behavior. She sent photos of Rosie’s slumber party antics and was accommodating when we were running late for pickup.”
“Gary was incredibly helpful when my son was born. He watched our labradoodle, Benji, at the last minute and was so accommodating and kind. We are so grateful for Gary and his entire family. Highly recommend!”
“Felicia provided great care for Charlie. He stayed with her family for almost a week. I was updated with photos and texts on how he was doing. I would highly recommend Felicia.”
“As always, our dog Abby had a great time with Suzanne and Koda. Suzanne is terrific, provides lots of visit pictures/updates, and takes such good care of our (needy) pet. Thanks again Suzanne!”
“Peter is great! Excellent communication. He is prompt in responding to questions around availability. Very accommodating as far as setting up a meet and greet. My dog Lola immediately took to Peter and his adorable dog Zeffy. Which is saying something because she is very cautious with new people and situations. Lola really enjoyed spending time with her new friends and I will definitely be using Peter again.”
“Shana took wonderful care of my 4 month year puppy, and I couldn’t recommend her more. As a new pet owner, I was worried being away from my pup, but Shana made this experience super easy. She sent regular updates and photos, and Sancho seemed to have a wonderful time. When I need to board again, I’ll choose Shana and I recommend you do as well.”
“Kelsey took care of our boy this weekend and she was absolutely amazing. She kept in touch with us, sent pictures and took great care of him. He even made a new friend! I highly recommend Kelsey and will absolutely book with her again!”

Rebecca is amazing! My pups had the absolute best time! She is extremely communicative and sent tons of much appreciated photos. This was my little dog's first time away from home and he's exceptionally choosy about his people.... well the little man fell head over heels for Rebecca and didn't want to come home. She was able to give my very different dogs exactly what each of them needed to feel safe and happy, and I feel incredibly lucky that we found her!

There are 368 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Rochester. About 90% of Rochester sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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. 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. 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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
