“My 3 dogs had the best time! Brittany is amazing, I love everything about her. Her family is so great also, her kids were also so great with the dogs. We received so many amazing loving photos of our dogs with updates. Her house is beautiful, in the country with a private yard. I can never go back to a kennel again. We will be bringing them back for certain!”
“Ann is not just a dog-sitter. She is someone who understands every dog is different, and gives special attention to meet their needs and make sure they are loved. She spent extra time to sooth our nervous rescue dog Cleo, and bring her out of her shell until she was comfortable running around playing with the other sweet dogs at Ann’s home. She has a perfect set-up with nice backyard, and lounging area inside with lots of sun. Her many updates and photos gave us peace-of-mind that our dog was happy and well cared for during our time away. We will definitely be back!”
“Great people and am amazing, spacious, SAFE place for my dog. Excellent communication. I was happy to share my dog with these exemplary, canine-loving people. Amazing experience.”
“Jettie had a great time at Christy’s home! She seemed to love playing with Christy’s dog and went on big exploring walks daily. Christy was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. She sent pictures of Jetties adventures daily. It was great leaving her in a loving home while I was away. Thanks Christy!”
“Hailey was fantastic with our pups. She sent us pictures and updates for them to help set our minds at ease. There was plenty of room outside for our dogs to run and play. When we picked up our dogs, they were happy and playful. They were very clearly well taken care of. We will definitely use Hailey again.”
“Jenna was great with Buzz! He had never stayed away from me before but came home happy and healthy. She sent pictures and was very responsive when I sent messages. I highly recommend Jenna for your dog sitting/boarding needs!”
“Jennifer was amazing! She’s so sweet and obviously loves animals. She took my dog hiking to a waterfall, when I picked her up she was exhausted and didn’t want to leave! Would definitely leave Bowie there again.”
About: I have had many breeds and ages of dogs my whole life. I look forward to assisting you with your best friend. From feeding to training and walks to the river I can’t wait to meet your best friend. Need more than dog care? I have plenty of experience with all sorts of farm animals! Currently have a flexible schedule and looking to add more dogs to my dog walk. I have a great spot to take by my house or we could head to some more well known trails. Your pup can come hang in my fenced in yard and join my pups in watching the chickens roam around. Otherwise we can stay in the comfort of their own space.
“Jane is a lovely and experienced dog sitter. My little puppy was very excited and energetic to see a cat that was in Jane's home. Jane was skillful in calming down my puppy and making them get along. My puppy had a pleasant stay in Jane's home for a few days. Jane is very easy to work with too. We had some schedule changes and communicated to Jane, and she was quick in responding and working out our schedule.”
“Steve and Keely took amazing care of my 11-month old black lab Rain. Their lab Sabra and Rain became fast friends and played together constantly during her 2-day stay. Rain had plenty of room inside and had daily walks and outside time as well. Steve sent me photos and updates throughout her stay. I have already rebooked with Steve for a weeklong trip I am taking next week. I can’t recommend him enough.”
“Andrea is very attentive and caring and has a wealth of knowledge and experience with dogs. She was sensitive to the needs of my elderly pup and went the extra mile to accommodate her. I highly recommend Andrea.”
About: I like dogs and cats. Doesn’t matter what I watch but cats are easier for sure! I live in Weirs Beach where many peopke walk their dogs. My house is a perfect location for me to watch your pet if you go to a concert at Bank of NH Pavillion or go on the Mt Washington cruise ship or Train ride! Open for anything since I’m retired and have the time now. Prefer to watch pets in my own home but will watch in yours if your more comfortable I don’t have fenced in yard. I would need to walk dogs on leash or keep cats inside. I do have yard for dogs to wander around as long as they are tethered and I’m watching them
“Kate and John were so awesome! They really know dogs and made us feel so confident that our Penny would be safe and comfortable! We will definitely request their services in the future.”
“Lika took very good care of our dog Lola while we were away! We got lots of photos and videos. Their home is very dog-friendly and dog-comfy and the fenced yard in the back was nice too! We didn’t have to worry at all about Lola while we were gone, which was great. Highly recommend!”
“Can't say enough good things. My dog Oscar clearly enjoys his stays with Emma and I appreciate the flexibility with pick up and drop off times. I'm new to New Hampshire and finding someone I can happily leave Oscar with was a priority—Emma was the perfect choice.”
“Nina was awesome! My dog Mattis had a great boarding experience. I felt 100% comfortable knowing that Nina was taking such good care of my boy. Not only would I recommend Nina to others but will be asking her to sit for Mattis again soon.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Thornton on Rover is $36.75 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 56 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Thornton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Thornton 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 Thornton.
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.
You and your Thornton 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.
