“Alina is wonderful with our dogs. We have used her several times. She is loving and takes great care of our babies. We received updates and pictures each day. It reassured us that they were just fine! Our dogs were happy and loving the stay! I would highly recommend her to care for your 4 legged babies.”
“Alicia abs her wonderful children and husband could not have been more lovely, kind, accommodating, and thoughtful! We are so very grateful. Our pup, Gertie, has never bonded better with a family in a short time. We even got such sweet pictures during her stay. Definitely book with Alicia if you can! What a positive experience. Much appreciation!!”
“Jen was awesome! She took great care of my English bulldog,Rileigh? I couldn’t have found a better fit! Her two dogs-Moxie and Ziggy are just the sweetest and all of them got along! My girl was a happy camper when I came to pick her up and we plan to have many more visits with them! 10/10 would recommend Jen!”
About: I have been dog sitting for my granddogs for over 10 year. I enjoy their company and snuggles. I am retired and love the company of dogs. I am home most days and have a flexible schedule. I have time to walk your dog and give them lots of love and snuggles. I have my granddog Monday-Friday. He and I go on little hikes when the weather is good. I brush him weekly and give him lots of attention.
“Christy was awesome. Clearly the best person I could have hoped to leave Buddy with during our ski trip. She actually made a better effort to send pics and updates about my dog than I did for the parents of the 8 extra kids that spent the week skiing with us!”
“Rebecca was awesome!! You can tell she is an animal lover. Lucy had the best time with Rebecca during my vacation. Rebecca sent photo's so I could see what my puppy was up to. It was a hot day out and Rebecca brought Lucy and the other dogs inside to enjoy the AC while they rested. Lucy was so tired when she got home after a day of playing!”
“Our energetic Maddie had a great stay with Tony. We always try to board her with people that have other dogs so she can play and make friends. Tony had her alone, but still managed to get her walking and running off leash in a fenced in yard and kept her happy. He was very good about reaching out and sending pictures during her stay which is very reassuring. Not enough Rover people do that! Tony is highly recommended!”
“Tracy is fantastic, she was so accommodating and obviously cares so much about pups. Her place is really nice in a quiet neighborhood with a bunch of doggies and a 5mph speed limit. I felt so comfortable leaving Halo with her and will gladly again if I'm back on the area!”
“Janet was fabulous with Willow! I really think WIllow felt like she was at her home away from home. Janet took Willow out for a nice long walk each day which is Willow's favorite way to spend some time. I will definitely be using Janet the next time I need a sitter for Willow.”
“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.”
About: I've taken care of many pets including my own dogs and cats through the years. I can bathe your doggie if you'd like and take him/her for walks. I'm a stay at home mom so your pet will get lots of attention each day. I'll take special care of your furry friends! I'm a stay at home mom of three small children. We currently have two cats of our own so your pet will just fall into our routine each day. I live on a quiet side road without a fenced in yard. I'll take your doggie outside on a leash for potty breaks and walks. Your pet will be well loved.
“Kaitlin and her family were fantastic with the dogs! First, she accommodated a last minute booking when my original plan fell through and accepted with a weeks notice and I am forever grateful. It was clear the dogs were in good hands with multiple updates and pictures each day, I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing they were well taken care of. They even came home with handmade bandanas! I would definitely book with Kaitlyn again knowing my dogs also had a great vacation at her home. Thanks again!”
“I always feel at ease when Briana takes care of my dog! He’s on the smaller side and doesn’t play with other dogs often so I was a little nervous at first, but he has a great time with her pups and is tired out from all his fun when he gets home. I love getting those pictures throughout the weekend so I can see how he’s doing. I would 100% recommend her for dog sitting/boarding.”
“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.”
“Jessica and her family were lifesavers! They took our two dogs last minute and loved on them so well. They did such a good job of integrating our dogs and sending lots of pictures during their stay. Our dogs came back so happy.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for Riggs than Ric! He was so kind and loving towards our old dog. He had him outside a ton, gave him great walks, followed our specific food instructions perfectly, and just genuinely obviously cared about Riggs being safe and comfortable. He was also super communicative during Riggs’ whole stay, and flexible with drop off and pick up times. I highly recommend Ric!”

“Emily is an incredible cat sitter and always so reliable! Our cats love her visits and we always feel like we are in good hands when Emily is cat sitting for us. Can’t recommend Emily enough!”
“Levi has been a godsend this summer for me! With a very busy schedule this year and having to leave Ollie for a couple weeks for the 1st time, I felt so much better that Levi was gonna be here to check in on her! I appreciate the daily pictures so much and the updates on her spirits in my absence. Ollie is not a lap cat but she loves being in the presence of people. I think Ollie fell in love with Levi so both Ollie and I recommend :)”
“Elizabeth was wonderful. She is an excellent communicator and went above and beyond to get to know our very shy cats. We came home to a perfectly clean house and very happy, chill animals. We’ve already rebooked. Highly recommend.”
“Jennifer has a heart for animals and did a good job caring for my bunnies. She left their pens super clean which was definitely going above and beyond! She was also willing to do an extra check on them when I was concerned for them. She asked good questions about their care and spent a lot of time with them.”
“I am incredibly grateful to have found Chelsea on Rover. From our first meeting, I had complete trust in her abilities to care for my older dog. She was dependable, shared wonderful photos and timely updates at each drop-in visit, and is just overall an awesome person. Upon our arrival home, our dog was relaxed, happy, content, and so well taken care of. I would highly recommend Chelsea for all of your pet needs.”
“Richard was excellent, he responded to our communication quickly and sent us daily pictures. We felt that our cats were in good hands while we were away, and when we came home everything was as it should be. I would highly recommend Richard to watch over your pets!”
“Amy is perfect. Our kitties liked her right away, she gave them lots of play time, and she was kind enough to take in a few packages and water our poor basil plant on the kitchen counter that we had forgotten about. Amy was also kind enough to share pictures every day we were away, and she clearly communicated her availability and timing for each day in advance. We are very happy and hope Amy will be able and willing to take care of our kittens again in the future (next time we're away). Thank you Amy!”
“Sue is a very responsible pet sitter! She contacted me because one of my kitties was in hiding & she'd been looking for an hour! She is a very caring pet sitter - & with shy kitties, she is wonderful.”
“Brianna was an amazing sitter for our cats! We received detailed reports each day of the time spent with our cats. We will absolutely be booking Brianna again based on professionalism and care for our cats.”
“First time using Rover, and Eliot was wonderful. She has a ton of experience with animals and it was clear that my boys were well taken care of. Knowing I had a pro looking after my cats made my trip a lot more relaxing than it might’ve been otherwise. Her rave reviews tell you all you need to know. I will absolutely book her again.”
“Gabrielle has been wonderful with my pup and has been taking care of her for several weeks now! She always updates me with pictures throughout the visit and dotes on my pup, always leaving her happy and full of snacks. She’s experienced with puppies and training and always gives me feedback and advice!”
“Cleo appreciated all the love and attention and I appreciated how dedicated Beth was (making sure Cleo had her meds on time as well as lots of love while I was away). She was super flexible when my plans changed and went above and beyond to look out for Cleo.”

“Jen was amazing in every way! She sent us regular updates and took great care of our pup while we were hiking for the day. We are excited to have our dog stay with her again!”
“Alina was so fantastic! We spent a few minutes introducing our dogs on drop off. Then I was off and Daisy was taken on an awesome adventure walking all around Portsmouth. By the time I picked her up, Daisy, normally full of energy, had clearly had a good time and was ready for a nap, a rare sight.”
“Lovely Rover sitter with a wonderful chocolate lab! Our Samoyed pup had a wonderful day with Antonella and her family and didn’t want to leave! Great communication and attentive, easy sitting. Our dog was happy and tired at the end of the day!”
“Jane is an outstanding dog sitter and person. We had schedule issues trying to accommodate a big family making us late. She was understanding and kind. This was the first time Rio was ever left with someone outside our family so were nervous. She gently greeted Rio, let him in her home with no hesitation like it was his own. We are so thankful for the exceptional care and attention she gave Rio. We are looking forward to more bookings with Jane.”
“Christy was wonderful, and my dog (Alice) absolutely adored her! Christy is communicative, friendly, and has an obvious love for the dogs in her care -- Alice will definitely be back!!”
“Kim came to pick Numbers up from my wedding and helped her stay still in photos. I was thrilled to send the dog with her because I knew she would be safe and well cared for. When we came to pick her up the next morning was happy and even a little tired from playing.”
“Bri watched my pup on relatively short notice on a holiday weekend. She was very responsive, provided lots of updates and pictures, and overall took great care of my energetic girl, and we even went home with some homemade dog treats! I definitely recommend her!”
About: Hi, I'm Kaitlin! I've been caring for pets for 20+ years. I currently have three dog-savvy indoor cats, two friendly (albeit loud) dogs, and I treat every pet I care for like my own. I have children in my home (ages range from 4 – 16) who have all grown up with both cats and dogs and are well versed in respecting their personal space. My husband and I both work from home during the week. I will be returning to office hours Wed-Fri starting in December, but my husband will be home when I am not. Our guests will always have companionship and supervision while in our home. A few things that set my care apart: - Experience with crate training/trained dogs. I can offer support in your training journey if it is something you are working on with your dog. - While I do not currently have a fenced-in yard, I do live on a private dead-end road in a quiet neighborhood. We do not have heavy traffic and can walk for as long as necessary to tucker your pup out. I also have long leads (60ft) for outdoor play on our property. - Daily photo updates of your pet(s) if desired. - Experience with dogs of all ages. - If your pet prefers a calmer environment, my at-home work space provides a reprieve from the rest of the house while maintaining companionship. - Competitive rates and flexible scheduling. I can typically accommodate emergency requests, though Fridays can be tricky with my in-office hours. - Bonus: I also have experience with chickens and love all animals, barnyard or otherwise. I can accommodate check-in visits to refresh water and feed as long as instructions are provided. Please contact me to discuss alternative means of scheduling if this may interest you or you know someone looking for a short term homestead sitter. Your pet will always feel loved, safe, and comfortable while in my care. My husband and I both currently work from home during the week and can provide constant supervision and attention to our guests. Your pet will never be left unattended for more than an hour or two, and crating them is an option if necessary. No dog is left unleased when outdoors; leashes and long lines are used for outdoor walks/play time. Guests are never left unattended and playtime is always supervised between our dogs and guests. Boarding guests are treated as family while staying with us and all areas of our home are open to them.
“We are so lucky to have found Rebecca! Our dog has a hard time being away from us, but when we get to Rebecca’s house, our dog walks right in with a wagging tail and doesn’t even look back! What a great, calm, and relaxing spot to be a dog.”

“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! From the start, Lori was super friendly, easy to communicate with, and went out of their way to accommodate our last second plans. Lori was warm, patient, and flexible, which made everything stress-free for us and even updated us with photos! It’s rare to find someone who genuinely connects with our anxious pup but Lori totally did! If we lived 1500 miles closer — we’d use them all the time!”
“Soleil had a nice time at Hailey’s home! She offered doggy day care services and was very caring and communicative as a host. She had a very sweet dog named Misty who was also welcoming and got along well with my pup. Lovely property with plenty of space for dogs to roam.”

“Christina was really great with Cosmo and is experienced in dog behaviour and handling. I was nervous as Cosmo hasn't stayed in a kennel before but she handled it great and Cosmo had a great time! She was detailed in asking questions to ensure she had all the information to provide the best care for him.”
“Highly recommend! We have a 10 month old Irish Setter puppy and had her set to go to a kennel. We found the kennel was awful, but we had to leave her as we were heading out of the country the same day. I found Gabrielle and Sara through Rover and they responded immediately. They went over and picked up our girl first thing the next day and took great care of her for two weeks. I regularly received pictures and updates. She was well taken care of and happy pup when I returned home. I highly recommend them.”
“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.

He had him outside a ton, gave him great walks, followed our specific food instructions perfectly, and just genuinely obviously cared about Riggs being safe and comfortable. He was also super communicative during Riggs’ whole stay, and flexible with drop off and pick up times. I highly recommend Ric!”
About: I have always had dogs but am currently without one after my 16-year-old golden retriever passed away. I am comfortable working with dogs of all ages, and understand how their needs, routines and personalities change throughout their lives. I live in a quiet community with beach access a short walk away. If you have a pup that loves to swim, go on adventures or walks, or simply spend time outside, I would be a great fit. While your away, you can be sure they too are enjoying a mini vacation. I can work from home so your dog will not be lonely during the day. There are some days I may not be home all day, but I will be sure to give them plenty of exercise with time to run, play or swim in the mornings, afternoons and evenings. I also have a life jacket for those dogs who are not strong swimmers or who may want a little extra support in the water. I've not crated any of my dogs, but if you are more comfortable with crating, I can accommodate that if you bring yours. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a small side yard, access to trails and a beach so they will get plenty of time outside.
