“Megan is absolutely incredible. She treats our dog as if she were her own. She communicates regularly and keeps us informed. So very grateful to have Megan watch our Fina when we are away. Five stars and beyond!”
“Truly awesome service, Jo was super flexible with my late request and took amazing care of Missy. She sent photo updates to let me know what they were up to which was great to see. She asked thoughtful questions to make sure she understood everything about Missy to make sure she gave her a great stay. Missy had a ton of fun with Jo and I will 100% use her again!”
“This was the best case scenario I could have imagined. My dog was cared for to the highest level and I feel like he is even more obedient after. Laura is very nice and accommodating!”
“Katherine took great care of our pup while we were gone for a week. She sent us pictures and updates daily. Our dog was very happy and well cared for when we returned. I would highly recommend this Rover placement. This was our first experience with Rover - and we and our dog couldn't have been happier!”
“Brooke took amazing care of our little dog Star! We left our chihuahua with her in April of 2023 for a week. We received daily updates with pictures. She was treated as part of Brooke's family and not just a dog. Star clearly enjoyed her time at Brooke's home. We will use again. Thank you Brooke!”
“I highly recommend Julia and Connor! We overnight boarded our dog for 1 night with them and they were great with her! She was spoiled rotten. I got tons of updates with pictures and she played non-stop with their adorable dog, Mango! Their yard is so pretty with a large fenced in space for running around. 10/10 experience! We definitely plan to leave Millie with them again soon.”
“Our pup had a great time with Debra! I really appreciate that she took the time to meet with us to get to know our dog before we left her in her care. Debra was excellent at communicating and shared daily photos throughout the week. We would love to have Debra care for our dog again.”
“I’d give 6 stars if i could. We left Sully for an extended period of time for the very first time, which of course came with parental nerves and concerns (especially since my dog has IBD, so he needs the extra care and attention) Ashton was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and understanding of our nerves, but his care for Sully quickly dissolved our nerves of leaving Sully with how well he cared for him. Ashton sent us morning/evening updates, pictures, and took care of our dog as if he was one of his own (so much so that we could tell Sully was sad to leave him!) Ashton is an amazing pup care giver, i’d recommend him 10/10 and will choose him 100x over next time we need a sitter (and i know Sully will be so excited to see him again)”
“Our usual sitter wasn't available for the dates we needed, so I reached out to Jodie. She and her partner were so kind and welcoming to our two dogs, Walter and Gwen. They had a great time, and we were able to enjoy our family visit without any concerns. Thank you both so much!”
About: My husband and I have been around dogs our entire lives and have hands-on experience caring for them in a home environment. Currently, we have a large, professionally trained dog who has helped us develop strong skills in structure, consistency, and understanding dog behavior. She was trained through 6 months, and we continue to reinforce that training daily, so I’m very comfortable with commands, routines, and maintaining a calm, well-balanced environment. We have experience with: • Large and high-energy breeds • Maintaining feeding schedules and routines • Reinforcing basic training and good behavior • Reading dog body language and temperament • Creating a safe, calm environment for multiple dogs For us, safety and attentiveness are second nature. We are always present, aware, and intentional about making sure every dog in our care feels comfortable, secure, and well looked after. Your dog will never feel like they’re in a kennel they’ll feel like they’re part of our family. Your dog’s stay will feel like a true home away from home, safe, loving, and tailored just for them. • Daily walks (morning, afternoon, and evening) plus plenty of outdoor time • Support with training and reinforcement of good habits, we’ve worked with professional trainers and are happy to continue that structure • Lots of snuggles, attention, and one-on-one care • Supervised playtime with our gentle, well-trained dog, Paris • Calm evenings with a consistent, comforting routine • Kind, dog-loving kids who interact gently and safely We’re highly attentive to each dog’s unique needs and energy level, whether they’re playful and active or more relaxed and cuddly. We’re happy to accommodate your dog’s individual sleeping routine to make them feel as comfortable as possible. Whether they prefer sleeping in a crate, on a dog bed, or having their own space to roam (including an entire floor if needed), we’ll follow your preferences and keep their routine consistent with what they’re used to at home. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos, so you can feel completely at ease knowing your dog is happy, cared for, and part of our family while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are our top priorities. We provide a calm, structured, and impeccably clean home where dogs are always supervised and cared for with intention. To ensure a truly personalized, low-stress, luxury experience, we limit the number of dogs in our care. We typically host just one client at a time, if you have multiple dogs, we’re happy to accommodate your family together. We never exceed three dogs total, including our own, so every dog receives dedicated attention, comfort, and care. Dogs are never left unattended for long periods, and all interactions, whether with our dog Paris or my children, are closely monitored to ensure safe, positive experiences. Paris is well-trained, gentle, and accustomed to being around other dogs. We take time to understand each dog’s routine, preferences, and temperament so we can provide a consistent and comfortable stay. Feeding schedules, exercise, and any specific instructions are followed closely. Our home is designed to feel like a second home, not a kennel, where your dog can relax, feel safe, and be genuinely cared for. ***We take trust and safety very seriously and are committed to following your dog’s routine as closely as possible. This includes accommodating any feeding method or dietary needs, whether that’s raw food, fresh or home-cooked meals, kibble, or more specific requirements like low-protein or other restricted diets. We carefully follow your instructions to ensure consistency, safety, and your dog’s overall well-being.*** We also provide regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and confident while you're away. We understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable with who is caring for your dog. When we've have used Rover for Paris, we always appreciated the opportunity to meet beforehand, so we are more than happy to offer a meet-and-greet prior to booking. This gives you the chance to see our home, ask any questions, and feel confident in the safe, calm, and personalized care your dog will receive while staying with our family.
“This was our first experience using Rover and we struck gold with Vanessa. She was communicative and kept us updated on our pups while we were away. Our dogs can be a handful as one is VERY high energy, but she clearly knew what she was doing and they came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend her to watch your pups!”
“Joshua, you were fantastic with my dog Slippy for the full 10 days. From the very beginning, I could tell how much care and attention you gave him. The regular updates and sweet photos meant the world to me and let me truly relax on my trip. Slippy came home happy, energetic, and clearly well-loved. I so grateful for everything you did. Thank you so much, Joshua — I would happily trust you with Slippy again anytime!”
“Adriana and her whole family was very accommodating and patient with our dog who gets separation anxiety. She kept me updated frequently with pictures and texts. I would use Adriana again and would recommend her. Thank you!”
“Amanda and her family (including their awesome dog) took care of our pup as though she were their own. We received pictures and updates throughout her stay. We had great peace of mind knowing our little dog was receiving such ample love and attention. Our dog looks forward to a future stay with Amanda!”
“Andrea watched our Golden for over two weeks. She really helped us out in a pinch. Lots of pictures and updates!! We were a little bit nervous because our pup gets anxious but Andrea put our minds at ease. Our dog came back very, very happy! We will absolutely use Andrea again. Thank you for taking such great care of our doggo!!”
“Rosie was very happy and well taken care of. Jessica went out of her way to make sure she ate since Rosie was homesick and not eating her dry food. I was updated daily with pictures.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my heart my whole life. Growing up we always had a dog in the house, big or small. Fast forward to now, my partner and I have fostered almost 40 dogs in recent years. Since then, I have cared for dozens of local dogs that are reactive, anxious, high energy, you name it. Whether it be a puppy who needs constant attention or an older dog that is set in their ways, I have handled it. Your dog(s) will be in caring, assured hands with me. I will care for any breed of any age, size or temperament. I currently work as a local dog walker, boarder and groomer. I am also home quite a bit as well. This allows me to take your pup on an adventure with me during the day where they can go on pack walks, explore and sniff or they can chill in the yard if that is more their style. I am fully insured and certified in canine first aid and CPR, so your dog is always in safe, capable hands. My family dogs are friendly, laid back and always welcome to new friends. My home is set up with multiple boundaries to allow dogs to have quiet time when needed.
“Christina was amazing with Minnie!!! They did so much, I can't believe it!! Minnie had an amazing "vacation" away from mom! Lots of play time, care and love!!! I 100% recommend Christina! Thank you again for an easy last minute request!!”

Prices are estimates per visit. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I have taken care of cats for the past 5 years. I have taken a few animal behavior classes in college and understand how they can act. I have had to administer insulin injections alone before and felt comfortable. I love taking care of cats and feel comfortable in every situation.
About: We enjoy walks outside and hiking on the local trails in the area. Our home is very welcoming to pets of all sizes. We have had 8 dogs at one time staying here in size from an extra large Swiss Mountain Dog to a tiny Chihuahua. We love playing with the pups in the yard and ensure they get the exercise they need. We also make sure there is always someone home with to make sure they are taken care of. Our Greater Swiss Mountain dog is extremely friendly with people and dogs and loves making new friends. He is very active and loves to play. We love pet sitting and look forward to meeting new pets from the area. I’m currently working from home. We usually start our day with a 1-2 mile local walk. Eat breakfast and start our day. Midday we play in the yard. We do not have a fenced yard, but we are secluded back from any roads. Dogs are always monitored when outside. We can do a tie out if necessary.
“Emily is extremely friendly and warm. . She has a real passion for animals and a lot of experience. She is easy to work with and excellent at giving updates about caring for your animal(s). We had a great experience in her checking on our beloved cat, Butterscotch!”
“Meg took great care of my kitty while I was gone. She listened to what I needed and followed through. It gave me so much peace of mind. I would definitely use her services again!”
“Andrea sent many pictures and made sure my cats were very well taken care of! She also did an amazing job at giving one of my cats her daily pills. While my cats were in her care I didn’t have a single worrying thought about how they were doing, making my vacation super relaxing and stress free! She’s the best!”
“Susan was the first sitter to get our cat to come out of hiding. She was responsive, paid attention to details and did a great job. I will certainly be reaching out to her again next time we need a sitter.”
About: I have two cats of my own who I call my children! Both of them have very different personalities (shy and outgoing), so I’ve adapted to taking care of them based on their differing needs. I disagree with the myth that cats are unfriendly—they are simply independent and need to do things on their own time!
“Jessica did an awesome job. Everything done as expected and the pictures and emails updates were very much appreciated. I'll book next time with her as reliable pet sitters are getting very hard to find. Thank you!!”
“This is the second time I’ve had Callie do drop-in visits for my two cats and she did a fantastic job both times! She goes above and beyond to make sure your pets stay happy and healthy. I highly recommend hiring her for any of your pet care needs!”
“Demi was responsive and very respectful. She came by to meet our family and cat and while we were away she took great care of our cat. I highly recommend her and will rebook with her in the future.”
“Did everything we requested and connected with Calvin and Hobbs. Both cats seemed to follow him all over the house and were fine. We will definely use Robert again when going away.”
About: I grew up with 3 cats, and most of my immediate family and in laws have cats even still. I've been trusted to take care of their pets for years, and trusted by family friends and extended family as well to care for their feline family members! I also spent 6 years working for an animal rescue and helping care for the kitties in the shelter. There's nothing better than a chin scritch and a purr ❤️ bonus points for kitties who like to tell me chatty stories!
About: I’ve been working with dogs since I was 7 years old at my grandmothers dog grooming salon. I’ve always loved both dogs and cats, and I’ve always felt a connection to them. I now have a dog and cat, and am open to caring for more animals! Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine very easily. On days that I’m working I have plenty of time to walk my dog and feed her in the morning, and once I get out of work i have just enough time to do a walk and feed her! On my days off I tend to spend as much time with my pets as possible, wether is playing, walking, or cuddling! I care for my pets at home by spending quality time with them. My dog loves walks, playing with toys, doing tricks for treats, and cuddling. My cat enjoys lounging with me some days, but he isn’t very playful.
About: I’ve been caring for cats since I was 10, I currently volunteer at a local animal shelter where I help socialize and comfort cats to make them more adoptable and less stressed. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter box cleaning, and giving meds if needed.

About: I've had a dog for 15 years and have dog sat for many years. I've been walking pets for a year officially, and love every minute of it! I am currently not working at the moment so I am free everyday at anytime before 9pm to walk or watch the cats and dogs. I am able to give pets my full attention when visiting. I do have a fenced yard with no other dogs in the house. And a shy cat.

“Brooke is so kind and sweet and my pup loved her - I definitely felt like he was in good hands while she watched him for the day. She is quickly responsive to text messages as well. Great experience!”
“Jodie is absolutely amazing! Booked her last minute for two days of daycare for my puppy and she excepted right away. Her updates and communication throughout the day is absolutely awesome. I could not recommend a better person to watch your pet. I will be continuing to use her for all my daycare and boarding needs! If I could give her 10 stars I would!!”
About: I am an animal and nature lover who loves being outdoors and taking care of animals. I will take care of your dog as if it was my own. We love going on walks and playing inside. I have 4 kids that are full of energy and love playing with animals as much as I do! I work from home so I am always around and love talking daily walks early in the morning, at lunch and at dinner time. My golden doodle is always looking for new friends too! I have plenty of indoor space for play and a built in playful friend in my golden doodle so your dog will never be bored but can also have separate time for relaxation as needed
“Outstanding as always! Jakobe has been going multiple times a week for months now and we both absolutely love it. He loves the outside fun, couch snuggles and Abby and her family. They treat him like their own and I couldn’t be more grateful!”
About: I have not been an official sitter before, but I have been a dog owner for 20 years and know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. Dogs are family, and I understand the importance of making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. We do not currently have any fur friends at home, so we would be honored to share that love with your dog. I provide a calm environment, pay attention to routines and needs, and communicate clearly so you can feel confident while you’re away. Because we do not currently have pets at home, we have room in our routine to give your dog plenty of love, attention, and companionship. We can be intentional about feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest, and we know how important it is to keep dogs on a routine that helps them feel safe and settled. We know dogs are family, so we care for them with patience, attention, and genuine love. Our home is currently without other pets, which allows us to offer a calm environment and focused care. We will follow your instructions closely, pay attention to your dog’s comfort and behavior, and communicate clearly so you know your pet is safe and well cared for.
“Colleen was super responsive and communicated great and sent pictures throughout my dogs stay with her for doggie daycare! I highly recommend her for anything as she is super knowledgeable and was overall amazing with my dog!”
About: I've been a lifelong dog lover (with the occasional cat in the mix) and actively foster for a rescue. I also hold a Bachelor's degree in Veterinary Science so your pets will be more than well taken care of. I work from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddle breaks, I can easily adjust my schedule to meet their needs and keep them happy! I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love company! I can easily accommodate crating if needed. I’ll make sure your dogs feel comfortable, safe, and loved.

I also have a small, friendly Chihuahua named Milano who is almost 1 year old. He is very playful, gentle, and loves meeting new friends. Because I’m home full-time, your pet will never be left alone for long periods, and I can provide a calm, attentive environment. I always recommend meet-and-greets when possible before booking, so your pet can meet my children and Milano and you can see my home. This helps ensure everyone is comfortable and it’s the best fit for your pet’s stay. 🏡 My Home & Environment • Safe, clean, and pet-friendly home • Calm family environment with lots of supervision • My children are gentle, respectful, and love animals • Pets are never left unattended • Plenty of playtime, attention, and care throughout the day I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I take that responsibility seriously.

About: Will care for your parrots, cats, dogs, fish - I have them all and will treat yours with as much love and care as I do mine. House sitting covers basic "away" duties (mail, lights, pet care, delivery acceptance). Pet sitting in my home means fun, treats, separate quarters if needed, and lots of exercise. Dog walking / bird time / fish feeding on your schedule and at your home one day a week or every day all year. Need a few hours away from your dog? I can do that, too! Have considerable experience with horses and barn animals, too, if you need some mucking or exercise/entertainment. Prices listed are my standard fees; I can work with you to suit your budget/needs. Thank you for clicking & please reach out if I can provide more information! I work from home and have the flexibility to accommodate nearly any schedule. Having pets myself, I understand that schedules can be fixed or variable/ad-hoc depending on their needs. At my home, I have a fenced yard and dedicated space for your furry, finned, or feathered family. While handling your dog outside of the home environment, I am a firm believer in a 2-leash safety strategy.
“Lindsey watched our dog, Jack, for an impromptu visit to the aquarium and lunch. She took WONDERFUL care of him and even though we’d never met her before, we were instantly put at ease by her calm and kind demeanor. Next time we’re in Newport, we’ll definitely reach out to her again. Thank you Lindsey!”
About: For over three years, my husband and I have been a tag-team when it comes to caring for our dog. We’re well-versed in the 'dog life'—feeding, walking, and grooming are just part of our daily rhythm. We’re happy to handle dogs of any age or personality, and we always prioritize being patient and consistent to keep them feeling safe and happy. Between the two of us, someone is almost always home! I’m fully available on Wednesdays and weekends, and during the rest of the work week, my husband works from home and can easily look after our guest pups. It’s a true team effort to make sure no dog is ever left hanging. We live in a clean, safe, and pet-friendly home. Our environment is calm and family-oriented, and we ensure dogs are supervised and comfortable at all times. We prioritize safety and maintain a structured, welcoming space for pets. We also have a fenced backyard for the pets to run around freely.
“Michael was amazing! Our 1 year old rescue is very apprehensive with other people and he adjusted perfectly. Michael sent so many pictures of our puppy with his puppy friends. I am changing my dog care from a large kennel to Michael!!”
“Ashley is pleasant and knows what she is doing with these dogs! She has an ideal yard and home and was willing to show me the environment. She sent me pictures throughout the day and made me feel very comfortable. We can’t wait to work with Ashley again!”
About: Hello, thanks for considering me to help care for your family! A little about me- I’ve had dogs my whole life. A lovable quirky Golden and quite a few Akitas. I’ve found every dog has unique needs and especially adoptees and rescues, need extra patience and understanding to gain your trust. I like to be mindful and cater to each dog’s individual needs on a case by case basis so they get the best possible care, which they deserve. I am reliable, dependable, and trustworthy. I will treat your dogs as if they were my own, with care and love. I have experience with both puppies and aging dogs. At any stage in their life I’m happy to do what I can to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I have cared for cats and dogs with daily check ins and in-house care. I feel strongly that both parties be comfortable with the pet care. You, the owners, should feel comfortable with me watching your pet(s) just as I should feel confident watching them. This is not just a way to earn some extra income (while that is important) your pet(s) deserve the best and if we are not a good match both parties are welcome to decline the care if we feel that’s best so your loved one(s), you, and I all feel good about the situation. Communication is key and as I mentioned if either of us feel unsure or unsafe it’s not worth the compensation. I hope this little blurb is not a deterrent but rather an extra layer of assurance why I am a good candidate for your dog(s) by being honest, fair to all parties, and prioritizing everyone’s safety. That being said I’d love to meet you and your four-legged family members! I have experience with a variety of cats, Golden Retrievers, Akitas (up to 130 lbs), German Shepards, Terriers, Boxer-Pit mixes, Labrador’s, and quite a few other mutts. I like dogs, big or small! If there are any specific instructions, medications, specific training commands, check-in requests, or any other requests please let me know! I’m more than happy to work with you to confirm details and instructions and make sure you’re comfortable leaving your little family members, while making the process easy and stress free. Thanks for reading my profile and considering me to help watch over your creatures! I truly love animals and look forward to taking great care of yours. FLEXIBLE! My schedule is a little different every week and can be flexible as needed (especially if planned ahead of time). I’m happy to discuss scheduling options with you to cater to the timeframe(s) your pet(s) need care. Let’s chat! I take extra care when in anyone else’s space, whether that’s your apartment, house, condo, whatever your home looks like, it warrants respect, privacy, and care. I have experience with dogs being put in their cages when left alone, for dinner, or overnight. I also have experience with dogs sleeping in the same square foot I do! (And by that I mean I am their human-sized pillow so they can sleep comfortably haha). All depends on what you prefer, happy to chat about your preferences. This is your pet, your choice. I will respect your requests, just communicate what you expect for your dog/cat/creature and we’ll make sure we’re on the same page so you and your pet are comfortable. Just let me know and I’ll make it happen!

About: I’m an animal lover with animals of my own!🩷🐾 From training my own pets, to taking care of friends and families, I’ve had a fair share of experience! :) I’m currently a full time student at UNH who works as a server on the weekends! My schedule is mainly open for you and your animal companion! 🩷 I’ve been walking dogs since I was a little girl, so I know the ins and outs! I’m sure of safety and precautions when taking care of my own pets and especially yours🩷
“Callie is amazing! She is dependable and communicates effectively. I really can’t explain how much I appreciate her! I look forward to the pictures of Kola from her walks! Thank you Callie so much!”
About: I’ve cared for a variety of animals through both personal ownership and pet-sitting for friends and family. My experience includes dogs, cats, guinea pigs, lizards, and chinchillas. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, cleaning habitats/litter, playtime, walks, and giving pets patient, attentive care. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, and I work to make pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owners are away. I work a consistent weekday schedule from 7–5, which allows me to plan pet care reliably into my routine. I am able to drop-in during my work day during house sits to address any mid-day needs, in addition to being available for early morning, evening, and weekend care. I care for pets by keeping their routines consistent and stress-free. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, walks, or house sitting, I make sure pets are fed, exercised, cleaned up after, and given plenty of attention and care. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, and I always keep owners updated while they’re away.
“We love Emily and are so lucky to have found her. She does a great job caring for our crazy animals and is very reliable. We will absolutely continue to book with her.”
“I really liked Jessica, my dog walker and “mama” to sarge for 3 weeks! She was extremely reliable and loved sarge as I do. I couldn’t have gotten a better person to walk and take care of my dog while I was away. She sent pictures and and texts every day she was there with him. I would definitely ask her to take care of him again on my next vacation and will recommend Jessica to my family and friends”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 15. I have taken care of neighbors, family, and close friends' animals. I have experience with a variety of dog breeds and personalities. I have had to administer medication via shots to animals before and feel comfortable in those situations. I plan on going to veterinary school and have a strong interest in animals and making sure they have fun. I am currently working an internship completely online as well as taking an online summer class. I am able to stay anywhere I need to take care of animals. I have not much else that can interfere with me accompanying the animals. I will take the animals on walks and play with them. I want to make sure they are having as much fun as possible so they cannot worry about anything.
“Heather was wonderful with my Golden Retriever Nell. She was reliable, always on time, and consistently took her for hour long walks and swims on our local horse trails and in our local pond, which was just what Nell loved. She took cute photos of their adventures to post for me, and kept her safe and content. She has been a real asset and I would highly recommend her. Nell is a young and energetic dog and Heather had no difficulty managing her and providing good care.”
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is that animals have always been a part of my life, not just something I care for occasionally. Growing up in a big family, our home was always FULL of pets...dogs, cats, rabbits, 2 birds, fish, even an iguana—and I learned from an early age how to nurture and care for animals of all kinds. My mom owned a horse, and my dad’s one dog soon turned into three—then he brought home a rescue. Years later my mom brought home a litter of abandoned kittens, so compassion for animals has been a part of my life from the very beginning.. I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, from playful puppies to senior pets who may need extra patience and medical support. I’m comfortable administering medication and paying close attention to pets with special needs. While in nursing school, I turned my love for animals into side work, walking dogs and providing overnight care for either dogs or cats. I treat every animal like my own, knowing how much they truly mean to the people who love them. Pet care fits into my routine very naturally. I’m a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. Your pet would have my full focus and lots of love. *For pups who aren’t used to stairs or have mobility concerns, we have a home elevator available so they won’t need to use any stairs.
About: I’m new to River but I’ve been pet sitting for many years! I love animals and I am willing to do sleepovers! I’m dependable and you can count of me to keep your pets safe and happy! I’m very flexible with prices, my top priority is to ensure you and your pets are comfortable while you’re away! I currently pet sit as my job, so my schedule is completely open, I do sleepovers and daily drop ins! You can count in me! I make sure your pets feels just as safe as they do with you! I’ll make sure your pets needs and routines are the same as when you’re home, to ensure they’re happy and comfortable!
About: I’m not just a sitter, I’m a full-time pet parent. My husband and I have two rescue dogs that we’ve raised and cared for over the past 6 years, starting from puppyhood. We’ve gone through training, learned how to handle different behaviors and built a home that revolves around happy, well cared for pets, including two rescue cats. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own pack, whether that means sticking to their routine, giving them extra patience, or making sure they get plenty of love and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work in real estate, which gives me a flexible schedule and as a mom of two (less furry babies), I’m already used to planning my day around care, consistency and routines. That means I’m able to prioritize walks, drop ins, and check ins throughout the day. I’m often out and about locally, so it’s easy for me to incorporate visits and give pets the attention they need at consistent times. I always follow each pet owner’s lead when it comes to care. Every pet has their own routine, preferences and personality, so I take the time to listen carefully and stick as closely as possible to what they’re used to. In my home, pets are welcomed into a loving environment. We live in a quiet cul-de-sac neighborhood, which is great for safe, low-traffic walks and a more relaxed setting. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar surroundings.
About: Hello! My name is Liv, a recent college graduate looking to make some more furry friends. I’ve been proudly taking care of my neighbors dog and house for 3 years when they are away for family and business matters. This includes half an hour drop ins and house sittings for up to 2 weeks to not only keep their fur baby company, but take good care of their house as well. I also have a dog and two cats of my own, so I understand the needs and wants of all different types of animals! I currently have a part time job, so my availability is very flexible. I usually work early morning shifts starting at 6AM to about noon. I would prefer to spend more time with your fur baby at your residence rather than mine due to my own animals, I would love to play with animals, take them on walks, etc. Your pets schedule is mine!
“I have a large, energetic four-year-old dog, and Maggie did a terrific job walking him. She was friendly and punctual, and my pup took to her right away. He came home tired and happy from his walk and is looking forward to seeing her again.”

“Nathan’s communication is top notch and his love of dogs is immediately evident. I was nervous about letting someone into my home to care for my dog when I had to return to the office full time, but I am very comfortable with Nathan. I highly recommend.”
“Viviana is wonderful, I knew her from previous experience and interaction with my dog. She is timely in her walks and I know she is patient with my guy who loves to stop and sniff ALL the things, I am pretty sure he likes his walks with Viv because she lets him take his time outside! I love the pictures I get with each walk too!”
About: My name is Natasha, and I am very passionate about caring for animals - I even worked for a rescue for many years! Part of why I love caring for animals with Rover is because I get to know and love so many new furry friends. I promise to treat your pets like my own, and give them love and care while you are away! I'm located in Amherst, on the border of Merrimack, and while I cannot offer boarding at this time as I have two young kids and a pup who has only been with us about 6 months and wouldn't do well yet with other pets in the home, I still would love to get the opportunity to spoil other animals in my area with love. I will treat your pets with respect and affection, and I am always happiest when I have a furry friend by my side. Please reach out with any questions, I look forward to meeting you and your four legged family members! I currently work full time remote, so I am home during the day every day and am able to keep good attention to my pup and any pups we watch. We treat every pup we watch as though they are our own. We absolutely love dogs, and will go out of our way to provide the best care possible.
About: Hi, I’m Kristen! I’m based in New Hampshire and have been working with animals for several years. I have hands-on experience both personally and in a shelter environment, giving me a strong understanding of a wide range of animal needs and behaviors. I currently have two cats of my own and grew up around dogs, so I’m comfortable caring for both—as well as other types of pets. I’m flexible, dependable, and happy to help with everything from daily care to giving you peace of mind while you’re away. Whether you need a quick check-in, extended care, or just an extra hand, I’m here to help! I work full-time on a second-shift schedule (Thursday through Monday) in Peterborough, but I’m still available for housesitting and pet care with a bit of coordination. Because my schedule is a little unconventional, I may require additional support for certain bookings, but I’m always happy to discuss what works best for you and your pets. At this time, I prefer to provide care in clients’ homes, as I currently rent and have a cat who isn’t accustomed to dogs. This allows me to give your pets the attention they deserve while keeping them comfortable in their own environment.
About: Ive taken care of dogs for about three years now working at McOsker Kennels, I’ve worked with aggressive dogs, old and with dog that need medicine, there’s been a few dogs I’ve worked with that couldn’t be with other dogs and now they play in the yard with five or more furry friends, they were also afraid of people getting close and now they run up to whoever is in the yard with them, making a difference is what I strive to do especially if it mean they will have a better, happier life. I’m currently a part-time college student, I can schedule days off when needed, I’m usually free until 2 or after 12, even then my schedule is very flexible and it will allow me to do boarding on weekends when needed I can dog sit/house sit, I follow the instructions of the parent to insure their furry friend is well taken care of, I can take them on long walks or even to an open field to play.

“Megan is absolutely incredible. She treats our dog as if she were her own. She communicates regularly and keeps us informed. So very grateful to have Megan watch our Fina when we are away. Five stars and beyond!”
“Truly awesome service, Jo was super flexible with my late request and took amazing care of Missy. She sent photo updates to let me know what they were up to which was great to see. She asked thoughtful questions to make sure she understood everything about Missy to make sure she gave her a great stay. Missy had a ton of fun with Jo and I will 100% use her again!”
“This was the best case scenario I could have imagined. My dog was cared for to the highest level and I feel like he is even more obedient after. Laura is very nice and accommodating!”
“Katherine took great care of our pup while we were gone for a week. She sent us pictures and updates daily. Our dog was very happy and well cared for when we returned. I would highly recommend this Rover placement. This was our first experience with Rover - and we and our dog couldn't have been happier!”
“Brooke took amazing care of our little dog Star! We left our chihuahua with her in April of 2023 for a week. We received daily updates with pictures. She was treated as part of Brooke's family and not just a dog. Star clearly enjoyed her time at Brooke's home. We will use again. Thank you Brooke!”
“I highly recommend Julia and Connor! We overnight boarded our dog for 1 night with them and they were great with her! She was spoiled rotten. I got tons of updates with pictures and she played non-stop with their adorable dog, Mango! Their yard is so pretty with a large fenced in space for running around. 10/10 experience! We definitely plan to leave Millie with them again soon.”
“Our pup had a great time with Debra! I really appreciate that she took the time to meet with us to get to know our dog before we left her in her care. Debra was excellent at communicating and shared daily photos throughout the week. We would love to have Debra care for our dog again.”
“I’d give 6 stars if i could. We left Sully for an extended period of time for the very first time, which of course came with parental nerves and concerns (especially since my dog has IBD, so he needs the extra care and attention) Ashton was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and understanding of our nerves, but his care for Sully quickly dissolved our nerves of leaving Sully with how well he cared for him. Ashton sent us morning/evening updates, pictures, and took care of our dog as if he was one of his own (so much so that we could tell Sully was sad to leave him!) Ashton is an amazing pup care giver, i’d recommend him 10/10 and will choose him 100x over next time we need a sitter (and i know Sully will be so excited to see him again)”
About: My husband and I have been around dogs our entire lives and have hands-on experience caring for them in a home environment. Currently, we have a large, professionally trained dog who has helped us develop strong skills in structure, consistency, and understanding dog behavior. She was trained through 6 months, and we continue to reinforce that training daily, so I’m very comfortable with commands, routines, and maintaining a calm, well-balanced environment. We have experience with: • Large and high-energy breeds • Maintaining feeding schedules and routines • Reinforcing basic training and good behavior • Reading dog body language and temperament • Creating a safe, calm environment for multiple dogs For us, safety and attentiveness are second nature. We are always present, aware, and intentional about making sure every dog in our care feels comfortable, secure, and well looked after. Your dog will never feel like they’re in a kennel they’ll feel like they’re part of our family. Your dog’s stay will feel like a true home away from home, safe, loving, and tailored just for them. • Daily walks (morning, afternoon, and evening) plus plenty of outdoor time • Support with training and reinforcement of good habits, we’ve worked with professional trainers and are happy to continue that structure • Lots of snuggles, attention, and one-on-one care • Supervised playtime with our gentle, well-trained dog, Paris • Calm evenings with a consistent, comforting routine • Kind, dog-loving kids who interact gently and safely We’re highly attentive to each dog’s unique needs and energy level, whether they’re playful and active or more relaxed and cuddly. We’re happy to accommodate your dog’s individual sleeping routine to make them feel as comfortable as possible. Whether they prefer sleeping in a crate, on a dog bed, or having their own space to roam (including an entire floor if needed), we’ll follow your preferences and keep their routine consistent with what they’re used to at home. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos, so you can feel completely at ease knowing your dog is happy, cared for, and part of our family while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are our top priorities. We provide a calm, structured, and impeccably clean home where dogs are always supervised and cared for with intention. To ensure a truly personalized, low-stress, luxury experience, we limit the number of dogs in our care. We typically host just one client at a time, if you have multiple dogs, we’re happy to accommodate your family together. We never exceed three dogs total, including our own, so every dog receives dedicated attention, comfort, and care. Dogs are never left unattended for long periods, and all interactions, whether with our dog Paris or my children, are closely monitored to ensure safe, positive experiences. Paris is well-trained, gentle, and accustomed to being around other dogs. We take time to understand each dog’s routine, preferences, and temperament so we can provide a consistent and comfortable stay. Feeding schedules, exercise, and any specific instructions are followed closely. Our home is designed to feel like a second home, not a kennel, where your dog can relax, feel safe, and be genuinely cared for. ***We take trust and safety very seriously and are committed to following your dog’s routine as closely as possible. This includes accommodating any feeding method or dietary needs, whether that’s raw food, fresh or home-cooked meals, kibble, or more specific requirements like low-protein or other restricted diets. We carefully follow your instructions to ensure consistency, safety, and your dog’s overall well-being.*** We also provide regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and confident while you're away. We understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable with who is caring for your dog. When we've have used Rover for Paris, we always appreciated the opportunity to meet beforehand, so we are more than happy to offer a meet-and-greet prior to booking. This gives you the chance to see our home, ask any questions, and feel confident in the safe, calm, and personalized care your dog will receive while staying with our family.
“This was our first experience using Rover and we struck gold with Vanessa. She was communicative and kept us updated on our pups while we were away. Our dogs can be a handful as one is VERY high energy, but she clearly knew what she was doing and they came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend her to watch your pups!”
“Cienna gets so much love and attention when she visits Nataliya. She runs and play in the big yard and we feel so comfortable sending her to her house. She always sends lots of pics which makes it easier being away from our fur baby!!”
“Joshua, you were fantastic with my dog Slippy for the full 10 days. From the very beginning, I could tell how much care and attention you gave him. The regular updates and sweet photos meant the world to me and let me truly relax on my trip. Slippy came home happy, energetic, and clearly well-loved. I so grateful for everything you did. Thank you so much, Joshua — I would happily trust you with Slippy again anytime!”
“Yingying was fantastic with Ace and I knew he was safe, which made my time away stress-free. I would have loved more photo updates but overall, I was very pleased. Would definitely recommend and will book again if/when needed.”
“Amanda and her family (including their awesome dog) took care of our pup as though she were their own. We received pictures and updates throughout her stay. We had great peace of mind knowing our little dog was receiving such ample love and attention. Our dog looks forward to a future stay with Amanda!”
“Andrea watched our Golden for over two weeks. She really helped us out in a pinch. Lots of pictures and updates!! We were a little bit nervous because our pup gets anxious but Andrea put our minds at ease. Our dog came back very, very happy! We will absolutely use Andrea again. Thank you for taking such great care of our doggo!!”
“Rosie was very happy and well taken care of. Jessica went out of her way to make sure she ate since Rosie was homesick and not eating her dry food. I was updated daily with pictures.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my heart my whole life. Growing up we always had a dog in the house, big or small. Fast forward to now, my partner and I have fostered almost 40 dogs in recent years. Since then, I have cared for dozens of local dogs that are reactive, anxious, high energy, you name it. Whether it be a puppy who needs constant attention or an older dog that is set in their ways, I have handled it. Your dog(s) will be in caring, assured hands with me. I will care for any breed of any age, size or temperament. I currently work as a local dog walker, boarder and groomer. I am also home quite a bit as well. This allows me to take your pup on an adventure with me during the day where they can go on pack walks, explore and sniff or they can chill in the yard if that is more their style. I am fully insured and certified in canine first aid and CPR, so your dog is always in safe, capable hands. My family dogs are friendly, laid back and always welcome to new friends. My home is set up with multiple boundaries to allow dogs to have quiet time when needed.
“Christina was amazing with Minnie!!! They did so much, I can't believe it!! Minnie had an amazing "vacation" away from mom! Lots of play time, care and love!!! I 100% recommend Christina! Thank you again for an easy last minute request!!”
