“Jeanne was wonderful! Our dog Sadie was well taken care of and we felt very comfortable with the property. Fenced in areas where the dogs could play. Many thanks for your care of our little Sadie.”
“I’m beyond happy to have found Evan on this app. He was absolutely amazing. Our whole camping trip I received photos and updates that made me feel so much better about leaving Ranger (for the first time ever). I can’t thank him enough for taking such good care and spoiling my pup! Will definitely be using Evan to watch Ranger in the future! Highly recommend!!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Katie and cannot recommend her enough! She was extremely responsive, organized, and friendly. We got daily pics and updates and she took wonderful care of Moose. We will definitely use her again!”
About: I have had my dog for over 9 years. She is very good with others. I have a fenced in backyard, and a doggy door of the screened porch. When we are home during the day in good temperatures, the door to the house will be open giving dogs the freedom of where they want to relax or play. I am currently a stay at home Mom to my wonderful twins therefore I have a pretty flexible schedule I can work around, especially if it avoids the kids naps. I have a fenced in backyard that is connected to the house via a screened in porch so there are many options of where to hang out. At night everyone is inside.
“Michelle was easy to work with and let us bring our dog over for a visit ahead of time. Our dog loved her stay with Michelle and we will definitely use her again!!”
“Noreen is the absolute best! She took such great care of our large dog while we were away, sending pictures and updates which kept the family happy while we missed our boy. Not only was she incredibly great to our boy and us and a great communicator, but she also showed great patience for me and was incredibly flexible. We were so lucky to have found her!”
“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!”
“They were AMAZING. Sent us cute photos and videos throughout. I can tell our dog Lucy had a great time. They were also very polite and kind the entire time. We've booked with them prior as well with the same experience.”
“Veska and her husband took great care of George! She sent lots of updates with pictures on how George was doing and was very accommodating with my late request when my other dog sitter had to cancel due to sickness. George loved staying with them!”
“My dog always has a great time with Nicole. She is great with communication and sends plenty of pictures and videos. I know he is always well taken care of when he’s there!”
“Primrose had a good time at Kellie's playing with her two chihuahuas and running around their large fenced in backyard. She was a tired happy puppy when we got her home. Thank you for giving Rosie a home away from home for the weekend! :)”
“Wowza!!!! Janice is amazing! Not only did she provide tender loving care for our dog, Pasquale, but she was sooooo accommodating when our flights were changed last minute. We could not have found a better match for our needs. We love Janice….XO😘”
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.
“Courtney. Is. Great. This was the first time leaving Albie with anyone outside of family so I was pretty nervous. We went over for a meet & greet and I felt good about her right away. She is super warm and kind and her home was the perfect calm, low-key environment for my old guy. She asked a lot of questions and made me feel confident that she was going to take good care of him. Courtney sent the cutest photos while we were away, it was nice to see how relaxed and happy he was. Albie is our *everything* and I am usually pretty anxious about him... I honestly didn't worry about him at all. I wouldn't have minded knowing more about his day-to-day but I didn't want to be "that" pet parent and ask a bunch of questions. I knew he was in great hands though and I'm sure she would have been patient with my helicopter parenting, haha. So, yes, we would absolutely trust Courtney with Albie again. I highly recommend her (and Frito!)”

“Emma was amazing! We had a very last minute medical situation with our cat and she went above and beyond with her check-ins to ease our minds. I would highly recommend her services.”
“Stephanie was awesome, she kitten/house sat for us for several days. She came up before and did a meet and great, sent lots of photos, and has awesome communication. She gave us piece of mind while we were away, plus my kitties were so happy. Highly recommended!”
“We had never used Rover before but are glad we did; much better than boarding our two cats somewhere they weren’t familiar. They loved Jason and he updated us every visit so we knew they were doing well. Will definitely use Rover and Jason again!”
“Considering this was our first time engaging a sitter via Rover, we got really lucky finding someone like Kate. Not only was she able to administer insulin to one of our cats, she was very accommodating of our schedules and specific requirements. She was punctual & responsible, and a big bonus that the cats didn't shy away from her :)”
“Second time having Jennifer watch after Simba, and he was just as happy once we got home! Highly recommend building that relationship early and having Jennifer in your pocket for when you need her!”
“Abigail was great—she was kind to meet us before her drop in’s to check in and feed my cat! I was super confident that she was in great hands while I was away! She was super communicative and super nice, I’d highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Cassandra is a warm, kind, and responsive person. She really enjoys your pets and you’ll get some cute stories about their antics while you’re away! I was reassured about my cats being ok and cared for, as well as entertained and, the most important!, they got their treats. So I’m not really sure how much they really missed me!”
“Maria was wonderful! This is our first time using Rover and leaving our dog Luna with someone other than friends and family. Luna was well taken care of and was so happy to see her each time she came. She even watered my flowers that were wilting on the table!”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced pet sitter for both cats and dogs. I grew up with multiple cats myself and have provided drop in and overnight cat care for friends, family, and clients over the years. Can provide care for adults and kittens. Here to bring some joy to their day!
“Marion was an absolute delight, our cat sage enjoyed her company very much and also got comfortable with her super fast. She gave us timely updates and was wonderful to interact with!”
“Makenzie was great! She kept me updated throughout my trip, took great care of my cat, and made sure to spend time playing with him while I was away. She also shared lots of great photos, which I loved getting. She really helped ease my anxiety about leaving him and gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands!”
“We were in a pinch & had to leave our cat Sam to stay overnight while we went out of town for a funeral & Beth really helped us out last minute! Affordable price, & she sent lots of updates! When I picked up my sweet boy he was very happy. 10/10 recommend Beth!!”
“Lydia has been pet sitting for us for nearly a year and she is wonderful, could not recommend her more! She’s great with all our pets who have varying medical needs and even our shy nervous cat loves when she comes by.”
About: When I began taking care of cats at the request of neighbors + friends at no charge over in 1998 I didn't realize I could make a living of it so I began advertising + launched a pet sitting business + have been purrfectly happy ever since! Because I respect cats need for space + time to gather their thoughts before approaching me I have countless felines who trust me! Cat parents are also happy that I send multiple pictures + short videos to reassure them that all is well! I will administer supplements + needle free medicine as well as replenish food + water, scoop litter boxes daily, play, + relax on the couch with your buddy. I also collect mail, take the trash + recycling to + from the curb, + alternate lights + blinds for a lived-in look. Contact me for quality in-your-home pet care!
About: I’ve had a cat in my life since I was born. She was a feisty one with everyone but me. She was my baby that I would do anything for. As she got older, she required more intensive care, such as medication, walking assistance, and food assistance. From taking such intense care of her in her last years, it made me realize animal care is in my future. after her passing I started to do in house cat sitting as it made the cats I was taking care of more relaxed. whether it be a feisty cat or a loving cat, I always treated them the same nevertheless. Every day, I fed them twice a day with treats in between freshwater three times a day, clean the litter box, exercise, and cuddle with them (if they wanted to spend time with me). This regimen seemed to be the best for all different cat personality types. I never want to intrude on their space just to make them comfortable while their family is gone.

“Karen is awesome. My dog was immediately at ease with her. He can be a little dicey with adults he doesn’t know, but he loved being at Karen’s house. Her yard is awesome for doggy adventures (complete with chickens to stare at). I can’t wait to bring him back for more play time!”
“Ashley was great with Farley and had other friendly dogs there for Farley to play with. They went on a field trip and dipped in the water and Ashley sent photos throughout the day of Farley having fun. Thanks Ashley!”
“Jeanne was super friendly and accommodating, and did an excellent job watching Jonas, our senior yorkie. Her property and home are perfect for dogs, and all the other dogs that were there were excellent as well. Thank you!”
“Sadie and Szymon did a phenomenal job with my Otter! They went on a long walk, and Otter got to play with their dogs in their beautiful yard! They treated Otter like one of their own, and I highly recommend them!”
“Becky is as close to perfect as one can get. She is thoughtful, caring, happy and reliable. Seriously do not know what we’d do without her to care for our very shy doggie - who can get into trouble now and then and she goes out of her way to help when we need, Thank you Becky 💛💛💛 Nothing but respect!”
About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was little. I had cats at home and started horseback riding when I was six. Now, I am living in New Hampshire for 3 years, with my husband, our two dogs, our cat... only our mare stayed in France. I do not work, so I am available to take care of your pets. I can groom them, administer medicine (with clear instructions), walk them or just cuddle them. I may be out 4 hours max for my english lessons. We moved to the United States for my husband's job; I don't work, so I would be delighted to look after your babies as if they were my own. I take English classes twice a week in the morning, but I am completely free the rest of the time. At my home, your dogs will be treated just like mine, with access to the garden and unlimited playtime and naps. Introductions to my own dogs will be handled gently—especially with Flack, who can take a little time to warm up but is used to meeting plenty of doggy friends back in France. At your home, I will follow your instructions; since my English isn't perfect yet, please feel free to leave written notes.
About: Growing up, we always had a dog or two and cats in the house. Each one, a member of the family that are loved and spoiled. I now have a year and a half old English chocolate lab named Errol and two cats, Pepper and Chester who are 12 and 6 years old. I have two teenage daughters, and my youngest works for a dog training and daycare taking care of dogs. Our family loves our pets and I and am excited to share that love with yours! I work full time from home 8:30 am-5:00 pm. I have limited time mid day that I use to do drop-in visits and short walks, and am otherwise available before or after my shift. I work full time from home during the day and my best general availability on the weekends. I can certainly make arrangements for mid day visits or care for a dog at my home during the day. I am always happy to rearrange things, even during the week to meet your family’s needs. I have a large yard and a chocolate lab of my own to keep your dog company. We live to play outside, for walks in the woods, and run around the yard playing in the doggy pool. For more adventurous dogs with some woody experience, our property is on the Lamprey River with access to play and swim.
“We had an excellent experience with our dog sitter, Veska. She took amazing care of Oaits and was gentle, attentive, and highly professional throughout. She made sure to understand what Oatis’ needs were by communicating with us and kept us up to date through out the stay. It was clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and we felt completely at ease knowing Oaits was in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter.”
“Karen and family graciously took care of my dog while I was in meetings from morning - evening. She was SO kind and accomodating of my schedule, was very loving of my pup and sent regular photos and updates on his activities throughout the day. She was terrific! We give her 4 paws-up!”
“This was Nova's third visit to Martha and as always it couldn't have been better. They explored and went for many walks and also she did a fabulous job bathing Nova and brushing her out. We look forward to seeing Martha again in a few weeks. I would highly recommend her services.”
“Anne was absolutely wonderful to work with! She watched my pup while I spent the day on the beach. She was a great communicator, amazing with my dog and an overall sweet woman. 10/10!! I highly recommended! Her little dog is an absolute love too! I will definitely use her again”
“Exceptional care and communication! Levi had a great experience and was well cared for. She was very happy with the care and the toys she had to play with. I highly recommend!”
“Mac had a wonderful day with Robert and his pups. He had never been to a dog sitter before so we were a bit anxious about leaving him. We had a meet and greet before the day visit and when Mac got to Bob’s house on the day of the visit, Mac remembered that it was a place with people that he liked. Bob’s updates through the day made us rest easy that Mac was being well cared for. We loved the report card and pictures that we got at the end of the visit. We look forward to our next booking with Bob.”

“Jennifer was very attentive to Leia which is exactly what she needs after moving to a new area. I feel so relieved that I now know someone that, when I have a long work day, can stop in and take care of my pup with a walk and a hug halfway through the day. Thank you!!”
About: I've had a variety of pets throughout my life, including dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters, sugar gliders and right now I currently have a chinchilla. I love all animals, and am always up for helping family/friends with their pets if needed. I'm very laid back and do not mind taking extra time to offer my lap if your fur baby requires extra doting and snuggles. I am currently between jobs, so I have plenty of time during the day at the moment. I'm happy to spend some time playing/hanging out! I am currently unable to care for pets in my own home, but I'm happy to come to you! I will respect any instructions or boundaries. I'm more than happy to do a meet and greet prior to care to discuss expectations.
“Jason was great and Benny loved him. He was very nice and considerate when it came to watching my dog. I will definitely use Jason again in the future and would recommend him to other pet owners!”
“Steph took great care of my two Shibas - meds, walk, water, food, pets. My two dogs aren't the easiest to walk (they aren't great on a leash and one is hesitant around new people). Steph took the time required to treat them as if they were her own. *This was my first time to use Rover. Would definitely recommend Steph!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with lots of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. 🐾 I lived on a farm for many years, where I cared for a variety of animals and learned how important patience, responsibility, and attentive care are. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes, including senior dogs, small breeds like Chihuahuas, and larger breeds like Pitbulls and German Shepherds. I’ve also cared for cats and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’ve even house-sat for a German Shepherd who required medication, so I’m comfortable following specific care instructions and making sure pets receive the attention and care they need. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some extra exercise, or simply a little companionship while you’re away, I’d love to help! I treat every animal like they’re my own and would be happy to give your pets lots of love, patience, and attention. ❤️🐶🐱 Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! 🐾 I’m available for walks Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday from 11 AM–3 PM. I love using this time to get outside, stay active, and spend time with animals. I’m reliable, flexible within my availability, and happy to give your pets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve! 🐶💕 When caring for your pet in your home, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. 🐾 I’ll follow all instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special needs. I’ll give your pet plenty of attention and companionship while respecting your home and keeping everything clean and tidy. My goal is for your pet to feel happy and cared for while you’re away, just like they would with you! 🐶🐱❤️
About: I love all animals and have been a dog lover since birth! I have cared for dogs & cats for 5 years now and received an Associates Degree for Animal Care & Management in 2022. I have fed, bathed, supervised, administered medication, etc. to all ages and sizes of dogs and cats at my workplace. I have 4-5 days available weekly to care for your fur babies! I am willing to do walks, drop ins and occasional boarding at your home. I am unable to host pets in my own home with my own pup but would be happy to do so at yours. I am trustworthy, reliable, responsible and have a special place in my heart for all animals!
About: I love animals and giving them so many snuggles. I have taken care of 5 pets 4 at once. I have experience sitting puppies (to of which I had at the same time who are siblings) I have that high energy, but know how to be neutral too. I'll send photo and video updates...except of the ones where I am singing and dancing to my own music, which are songs about your pet. What can I say? Feeling inspired! I promise that your babies will be well taken care of an loved! Communication is key, and I am sure to keep every pet parent updated while they are away. Here is a list of miscellaneous services 10.00 per medication administration 20.00 per 10 mile travel. This is round-trip I try my best to keep my calendar up to date! I am very timely with replies. If I do not reply the day of, I will the next day. Communicate safety rules with owners prior to pet sitting, and making sure I know where everything is located, such as, food, leash, vet phone, medications. Whether or not your baby is sensitive to certain things like being touched or picked up, if they prefer calm energy or high energy. I also communicate the whole time with pet parents to reassure that their baby is in good hands and happy. Please include emergency contacts. I always leave the key hidden where it was found, in the event that there is an emergency. I haven't had this occur, but it's a good precaution
“Autumn was great. She took great care of Ivy and I definitely recommend her as a walker/sitter. She made sure Ivy went to the bathroom and had plenty of water and cooled down after her short walk in the summer heat!”

I’m new to NH and it was hard for me to think about leaving Maverick with anyone new, but the moment I met Sheila and Dakota all my worries went away. Sheila loved on Maverick like he was her own and provided me with consistent updates on his time with her. I couldn’t have asked for a better suited person to care for my dog during my trip. We will definitely be back and can’t thank Sheila enough!!”
