“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!”
“Donnie is a professional- his home is completely set up for dogs not just to be there, but to be totally safe and comfortable. Everything was very intentional and controlled which I really appreciated. My Neo was well taken care of and I’d definitely rebook again!”
“Vanessa was great! She treated my girls like they were her own, which is exactly what I was looking for in a sitter. She kept me updated on how they were doing with plenty of pictures. My girls were treated to many walks, plenty of play time, and cuddles. I’m so relieved to have found Vanessa!”
“Absolutely fabulous! We were so nervous leaving our boy for the first time. Andrea and her husband made me feel so comfortable. They provided a warm, loving, and fun home for our GSD. Plenty of pictures of him loving life and getting lots of cuddles ? We could not be happier with his stay, and will for sure be rebooking!”
“Jing, made this experience a very positive one. I hadn’t left my 2yr old Zuchon previous to this. I felt very reassured for the duration my fur baby was in her home. My pet enjoyed the doggy day camp, and will continue to use Jing whenever possible. Thanks Rover!”
“Felicia was absolutely incredible with Luna. She took her on so many great walks. Sent pics of Luna snuggled up on her couch. Luna came back so happy but wiped after the couple of busy and active days with Felicia. Luna is already looking forward to her next stay! Would highly recommend Felicia - she was so awesome, highly communicative and took amazing care of Luna🐾”
“Rebecca was amazing with my two dogs and I cannot thank her enough. I felt so much as ease knowing my dogs were in good hands. I will for sure be using her again!”
“Bea did a Awesome job with our Dog Daisy.....Daisy had a great time at the Bea residence. Bea sent pictures and updates through out Daisy's visit, which put us at ease. We highly recommend Bea!!!!!”
“Adriana and her family are so understanding, sweet, and dedicated caregivers. Your dog will be in good hands with someone who really takes the extra time and effort to make sure they are comfortable and having fun. She is very responsive and sends frequent picture updates.”
“Rebeca was amazing with our dog Maggie! She sent pics and updates throughout the week, and we were able to relax knowing she was in great hands! We’ll absolutely hire Rebeca again in the future!”
“This was the second time that Emily sat our dog and cat at her house and we couldn’t be happier! She is communicative and detail oriented and I can tell that my pets loved her and her family. We will absolutely use Emily again.”
“Stella loved her stay with Denise. Denise sent me photos and updates on Stella. I would definitely recommend Denise to anyone looking for someone to watch their fur baby while away. It’s important to know they are being well cared for, and Stella was. We will use Denise again in the future for our pet sitting needs 🐶”
“This was Lucy's second stay with Bob, Kathi and Milo. I had been so happy with her first stay, I wouldn't have thought it could get any better. This trip Lucy settled in even more and made a great new friend, Maise. I really hated to leave Lucy for such a long time. We are inseparable and have gotten into routines we both enjoy. Ripping that away from her feels so cruel. But when we walk get to Bob's house, Lucy marches right in and begins exploring and getting comfortable. I'm not so sure she was ready to end her vacation this time! And Bob continues to cater to my separation anxiety by sending me regular updates and pictures. This is the BEST! Thank-you, Bob! (and Milo! and Kathi!) ”
“Thank you so much for taking care of my little logie bogie. The experience was excellent got plenty of pics and updates and I will look forward to booking again. Thank you again”
“We felt really comfortable leaving our skittish boy, Dingo, with Mike and Linda once we met them and saw that he was going to be doted on! We got almost daily pics and didn’t worry about a thing while we were on vacation. Dingo was reportedly loved by their grandchildren too over their Easter Sunday dinner so we weren’t too sure he’d even want to come back home with us but he did!! Highly recommend Mike & Linda! 🩷”
“Donna and Rolland were amazing. They gave so much love and support to my furbaby Jazmyn while I was on a 10 day vacation! Not once did I worry or feel any stress while on my trip. I felt like Jazmyn was in the best hands and I was right! I highly recommend Donna and I will definitely be booking with her again. Also, Jazmyn loved her which made it that much better!💜🐾”
“Caty and her family took such good care of our dog. She sent us pictures and updates. I made a mistake with our booking, but Caty was very understanding and accommodating. We will book with her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,766 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Sandown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
92% of sitters in Sandown 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 Sandown 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 Sandown.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Sandown 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.
