“Michelle was great! We dropped our pup off with her for a wedding night sleepover and before we knew it he was running around playing and didn’t even care that we left. She loves dogs and treated ours as if he was her own (feeding, walks, playtime, safety). She would’ve taken him to the beach the next morning but we had to pick him up early and drive back to NYC. We would 100% recommend her when you’re in the Kittery/Portsmouth area!”
“My Otis had a blast with Kane and Colette! They gave me updates and pictures multiple times through out the day, which was amazing! Otis had a wonderful time with them, and he was able to get plenty of exercise, playtime with friends, and affection! I will definitely be booking with Kane and Colette again and I highly recommend them!!!”
“Ashley is amazing! She went above and beyond to help us board Georgia in a pinch, and made sure she was well taken care of. Awesome option for daycare or overnight boarding. Would recommend to anyone.”
“Veska is my new favorite go to person to care for our Gracie! She was awesome providing my family photos and daily updates. Very evident our Gracie became part of her family for her 2 week stay! Highly recommend!!”
“Kelsey was very accommodating of my dog Nemo, who isn't always a fan of other dogs, so she made sure he was the only dog staying with her at the time! She was very communicative as well and sent many photos, which was much appreciated. I definitely recommend Kelsey to care for your pets while you are away!”
“I am so glad and grateful that Shana and Dylan watched my pup this week. I could not have asked for anyone better!! I adopted my dog less than two weeks ago and - still getting to know her - had a trip planned and needed to board her for 5 days. I was hoping for someone to treat my dog like their own and Shana and Dylan did just that. In fact, they went above and beyond what I could’ve hoped for - letting her snuggle with them at night, sending me frequent updates and pup pics, going out of their way to pick up beef and rice and cook it for my girl when her stool was soft, and packing the rest to go when I picked her up. Their dog Cleo is a sweetheart, and joined in on the doggy snuggles. I know if I ever need a sitter again I’ll be reaching out to Shana.”
“Diamond took such great care of our dog Maple! He's sometimes a little anxious but he was completely at home there. Diamond sent frequent photo updates and even took him to work with her. We'll definitely be dropping him off here again the next time we go away.”
“I cannot speak more highly of Eric and his sweet family! They kept my dog while I had a week long work event in Boston, and they took fantastic care of her. They sent me regular photos and they promptly answered any nervous mama questions I sent their way. We were worried about her getting spooked by the fireworks over the holiday weekend, and Eric and his fam took lots of precaution to make sure she was safe and happy. The pups that live with them are sweet and they got along great with my dog. I will be booking with them again if we're ever in the area!”
“I’ll start by saying that Sheila is the most wholesome and kind person and to top it all off she loves dogs. 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!!”
“Julia was amazing with our puppy and went above and beyond to take care of him as well as to keep us up to date with how everything was going, would highly recommend her to anyone”
“Mack and Dennis had their very first Rover sleep-away with James, and they were welcomed with open arms by his whole family. Everyone was so sweet and hospitable, and his little girl gave them plenty of cuddles, which they absolutely loved. James was incredibly easy to work with. He was responsive, flexible, and genuinely accommodating. I felt completely at ease knowing my boys were in such a warm, caring home. I would absolutely recommend James to anyone looking for a trustworthy, family-oriented sitter. We will happily book with him again.”
“Katelyn was amazing with our sweet boy Rosco. She welcomed him in to her home with open arms and made him feel comfortable. We didn’t have any concerns and definitely recommend her.”
About: I'm an animal lover and have grown up with all types of animals. I have been trusted taking care of neighbors, friends, and families pets for many years. My sister is a veterinarian so I often get the pet questions. I will go above and beyond for your pet. I work from home Monday and Tuesday so I am free to go for walks and drop by your house most of the time these days. I am in the office Wednesday through Friday and will have less time but still available. Weekends are free unless I'm away. I live on an acre of land. It is not a fully fenced yard but it is set back in a small, quiet neighborhood on a dead end road. I have an indoor cat.
“Juno had a great experience with Lorenzo while I was away . He is attentive , professional, experienced and communicated great with texts , pictures and videos . Juno will be back to play with Vito . I highly recommend him !”
“If we could give more stars we would!!! Nicholas is great at communicating, responding quickly and making sure our pup has a safe exciting time when he's with him. Our pup and Syl get along so well and it's the most precious thing to see.”
“For the first time in a long time I felt like my dog was going to be perfectly happy and well cared for while I was away. Courtney was perfect. My dog was happy and I can tell she had a great time with Courtney and her little dog. Highly recommended!!!”
“Absolutely amazing experience! Left my boy for 10 days and he couldn’t have been in a better care! She kept us updated throughout the whole stay and made sure to send daily pictures. It made me feel better knowing that he was getting so much attention and love! Will be using Felicia every time we need help!”
About: I am a kind and caring person to all animals. I’ve housesat and taken care of neighbors dogs and cats when they were away. I have experience with heat-sensitive pets so I have experience gauging pets’ comfort level in relation to outside weather. I'm free mostly anytime, I’m extremely responsible and will take careful and loving care of all animals that I take care of through rover. I’ve always loved animals and rover is a great opportunity to earn money while having fun. Dogs would get my undivided attention during walks and other services. What sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is that I truly love animals and I have time to give them the care they need. Thank you for the consideration! I currently work remote so I am flexible in regards to when a pet needs care at any time. I also have availability on the weekends. I have ample space for pets to enjoy and run around. I live in a friendly neighborhood with minimal car traffic for walks. Open backyard as well.

“Justina took great care of my cats while I was gone. She did daily check ins at my house, gave them so much love and attention, and sent me daily photos and updates. I will definitely be booking again for future trips.”
“Kristen took great care of my two cats and was a great communicator. It gave me piece of mind and made my trip much more enjoyable! Would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Talia was absolutely amazing! Very responsive, sent lots of pictures. My typically shy cat warmed right up to her! I completely trusted her with my baby while I was out of town. Would absolutely recommend to anyone!”
“Julianne was responsive, responsible and went above and beyond with my ornery cat to make sure she got her multiple medications. I am impressed and grateful for her dedication.”
About: Kristine and Eric have loved and had animals our entire life. I have always helped care for pets, even as a child. Eric was raised on a farm, caring for many different kinds of animals- waking up before dawn to ensure that all animals were properly cared for and had what they needed for the day whether it be rain, shine, snow, sleet, hot, or cold. We, together, have two dogs. They are both around 10 years old and are rescues. We also have 6 chickens. Our home has a door from the downstairs to the upstairs. When dogs are home during the day and if left alone for 1 hour or so they stay downstairs with access to water, comfy couches, and dog bed areas. When we are home they have free run of the home. We also have a crate for dogs that may need a private, safe space. We have a back yard that our dog enjoys playing in, but just so you know it is not fenced in, therefore dogs remain leashed when in the back yard. We do have a deck that is closed off in the backyard where dogs can be left unleashed to hang out, but always supervised when out there. We also have a 15 year old daughter who loves animals. She assists with the care of our dogs and we have fostered a few dogs in the past from various shelters and she is always eager to assist with making these dogs feel comfortable and give them love. She volunteers at a local animal shelter with small mammals and takes care of the chickens I work full time during the school year for a school district. Eric works from home. Eric takes dogs for a number of walks per day including walks to the local dog park (Rogers Park) and to local beaches for exercise and socialization. I am home by 3:30 pm and bring my dogs (and other dogs) for exercise either running, hiking, or walking. In the summer I am mostly around. I also grew up with cats and with both have experience with cats and providing meds to cats, including insulin shots. I work full time and Eric works part to full time but we can walk dogs in the evening and walk dogs throughout the day on the weekends. I have summers off as I work in a school. I will not be offering care in my home, but am excited to take care of your pet and walk your dog and take your dog on adventures.
“Madison was fantastic! She followed all of our instructions, and our kitten absolutely loved her. We also received wonderful photos that made us feel like we were right there with her. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! Heya! Hello! Are you looking for someone to care for your pet while your away? Well you've found them! Fun, energetic animal lover who can't wait to meet your pet! Drop-ins and Walking! Volunteer work with B.A.R.K, S.P.C.A, as well as experience working as a kennel assistant at Holiday Barn Pet Resort. Why I love dog sitting? I've always gravitated towards animals; I was that kid who brought home any animal that crossed my path, feeding strays, foresting. Growing up in a home where the pet to human ratio always favored pets, pet sitting is second nature to me. My experience administering medication I've done my fair share of administering medication to all sorts of animals. I am able to administer oral, injections, topical ointments, as well as suppositories. I currently work a dual remote position at NHPBS and have the flexibility to work from home which allows me ample time to provide the attention and care your pet requires. I’ll be an extension of your home and care. The goal is to provide a safe environment where your pet feels loved and has an enjoyable stay until your return.
“We are so grateful to have found Haleigh S. to do drop ins for our very social kitty while we were away. Haleigh S. provided thoughtful, detailed Rover cards and pictures and we could tell our kitty loved getting to spend that time with her. We loved the souvenir polaroid waiting for us when we returned home. We will definitely reach out to Haleigh S. for our future drop in needs.”
“Amanda took great care of my spirited 7 year old orange tabby in my home for a few days. He helped her unpack, tend to a sewing project, and showed her the proper way to chill on the couch. He is a super people oriented cat and Amanda spent time playing with him, cuddling with him, etc. She also took very good care of the house, even advising when lawn folks were onsite to do regular maintenance. Her communication was excellent; numerous pictures and updates each day. She is trustworthy, responsible....and just fun to chat with. We are already booked with Amanda for another stay and I know my cat is looking forward to more quality time with her. :)”
“Grateful to James! He very patiently waited for an appearance from my shy and wary cat, and in the end made a clear connection. Communicative and friendly -- I recommend James!”
About: Dogs were my first love. I've cared for dogs young and old, adopted and fostered dogs, raised puppies, provided training at all ages, and provided post-op and healthcare for unwell dogs. I have extensive experience loving and supporting dogs through their toughest moments, including separation anxiety, phobias, and illnesses. I've walked with pups from all paws of life - all breeds, ages, energies, and personalities - and loved them all!! All dogs are wonderful, and I will never, ever discriminate by breed. As a full-time dog pamperer, I've got plenty of attention, love, toys, and fluffy blankets to keep your furbaby happy and loved while you are away! I will love your dog exactly as they are - high-energy, low-energy, and everything in between. Whether they want endless walks or endless snuggles, I am excited to make your dog's stay an unforgettable getaway just for them! I know how hard it is to trust someone with your best friend. I'm happy to go above and beyond to make you feel confident that your pet is in good hands - from photos and updates to video check-ins. Your comfort matters to me just as much as your furbaby's. I always provide top-tier pet care, giving you peace of mind so you can enjoy your vacation to the fullest! I have a highly flexible schedule that allows me to give your pup all the love and attention they deserve! I am delighted to accommodate your furbaby anytime with enough notice. I am available for boarding weekends and weekdays, any time of year. My dog is the center of my universe, and I will treat your pup like they were my own! My house is their house, and my furniture is their furniture! My wonderful 9-year-old dog, Cleo, will be happy to keep your furbaby company. She's super friendly, low-energy, and always eager for a cuddle. I have access to a private dog park, an unfenced yard, and easy access to nearby nature trails, parks, and beaches! I can't wait to meet your furbaby!
About: I've been cat sitting for the past three years and truly love spending time with cats. I have experience caring for kittens as well as adult cats, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I'm reliable, patient, and happy to give each cat the attention and care they deserve.
About: I am a full time professional who absolutely loves dogs. I have an interest in one day incorporating animal-assisted therapy into my career. My family had a golden retriever as I was growing up who was my best bud. In 2020, my partner and I gained the most precious family member... Layla! She is a rescue pup from Tennessee and we couldn't be more in love. Layla has some challenges with anxiety/reactivity due to trauma when she was a babe. I have considerable experience caring for dogs with similar histories. If you choose me to care for your pet, rest assured that he/she will be treated as part of the family. Plus, Layla loves meeting new friends. :) People describe me as friendly, compassionate, responsible and reliable. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns. - Suzanne I have a hybrid work schedule- MTW in the office, Th and F with more availability. I love to spend time outside walking, running, or just getting fresh air. I recently moved to a new apartment building, which had a nice fenced in pet area to have dogs run around. I will crate your dog if preferred, and do my best to follow his/her normal routines. Expect lots of love and snuggles while your dog is in my care.

“Karen was kind and very easy going! Our dog is very nervous and he was calm and relaxed by the time we returned. Karen and her partner were very nice. She made our Christmas Eve dinner possible. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
“Ashley was AWESOME! We did a last minute booking and Ashley was very accommodating. We felt very comfortable leaving our Sophie with her. Sophie loved her time with Ashley, the walks and playing with her new friends. Ashley is knowledgeable, professional, and truly cares about all of the dogs. We highly recommend Ashley ... she goes above and beyond making sure that all of the dogs needs are met. Thank you Ashley for making Sophie feel so welcome!”
About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs my entire life, growing up I gained experience with all stages of life for cats and dogs, from 8 weeks old to senior care. As our dogs (Dude and Pookie) aged, I spent my teenage years developing a strong appreciation for the extra patience, attentiveness, and support older animals need. I also raised my own dog, Koda (9), so I understand the consistency, structure, and engagement younger dogs require. I am also very experienced with all ages of cats, please see my cat sitter profile for more in depth information. :) Since I work from home, I’m able to provide a high level of supervision, consistent care, and a flexible schedule tailored to your dog’s routine. Whether your pup needs long, active walks or a slower, more relaxed pace, I adjust my care to meet their individual needs! Having recently moved to New England, I genuinely enjoy getting outside and exploring new areas, so I can make each walk both enriching and engaging for your dog as we explore, while ensuring they feel safe, exercised, and well cared for. I work from home full time and my dog is lucky enough to have multiple walks to the dog park each day. I would be able to provide a similar time commitment for your pets as my work is flexible and my fiancé can care for our dog if I need to give yours some one-on-one time :) We live in a cozy apartment near an off leash dog park. Because of this I am used to going on many walks a day, but am also comfortable with playing in yards, or making it fun and enriching inside as well! My favorite thing to do for my dog when we are stuck inside on a rainy day is empty out his whole toy bucket and let him go crazy!
“Our dog was so tired and content by the end of their day with Enzo and Enzo's dog. Adorable picture of them playing/hanging out outside. Communication was super easy and prompt, we felt really comfortable with our pup being in their care, and would recommend them to watch anybody's fur baby!!”
“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.”
“Cecelia was great with our dog, Flora. We really appreciated receiving updates and pictures, and Flora seemed happy to return to see Cecelia again. She was very flexible and responsive. We would definitely leave Flora with Cecelia again!”
About: Without exception, the dog park is always one of the best parts of my day. I've had three dogs of my own, and have been around countless other dogs, most of whom instantly become my new best friends. We just gravitate to each other, hence the fuzzy friend whisperer nickname. I have a playful, loving attitude toward every dog I meet. I am also sensitive to dogs who need a little more patience and space to ease into trusting me and respect the boundaries that they need to do that. My training style with my own dogs is focused on positive reinforcement rather than punishment. This approach translates to other dogs as well, unless their owners request differently. Your dog will be in caring, responsible hands with me. They will be loved. Vogel Emergency Vet just opened right across the street from our house, so if anything kind of emergency pops up, your baby will be a hop, skip and a jump away from the care they need. I'm self employed and work mostly from home so my schedule is quite flexible. Sometimes I’ll have drop in visits throughout the day, but if your dog is boarding with me, there will generally be someone else at home with them. They’ll rarely, if ever be left alone. I live on a small farm but also live near a road, so your dog will always be safely on a leash when we go outside for potty breaks. I have a very friendly 12 year old 45lb labradoodle named Huck to keep your baby company in the rare cases that I'm not at home. I have a "squirrel observatory" (bird feeder) right near my workspace so your dog will not only be supervised most of the time but also entertained.
“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!”
“Nicole was fantastic with Teddy! She gave us a tour of her home and we received multiple updates with photos throughout Teddy's stay. Teddy had a great time and really loved the fenced in backyard. Highly recommend and we'll definitely book again with Nicole!”
“Leah was amazing with my puppy! She watched him for the entire day on very short notice while I was working and even dropped him off at my house afterward. She sent lots of pictures throughout the day and was very communicative, responding quickly to messages. I felt completely comfortable knowing my puppy was in great hands. I’m so thankful she was able to accommodate us on such short notice and would absolutely trust her with my puppy again. Highly recommend!”
“This was our first time using the Rover app and we picked the perfect person to care for our fur baby! Kiley sent us videos and pictures throughout the day and when we went to pick him up she shared how much she loved him! We are thrilled to hear this and can’t wait to have him stay there again.”
“Great experience with Karen! Daisy has done two days of day care with Karen and each one has been wonderful. Daisy played with other dogs and was happy and relaxed each time we picked her up. Karen clearly loves dogs and knows how to look after them. Will definitely ask to book again!”
“Adelle has been wonderful with our boy who suffers from severe separation anxiety. He gets along great with her pups, and he is visibly excited as he gets closer to her house. He comes home absolutelt exhausted after a day at daycare with Adelle! 10/10”
“Josh and Nicole have been great with our dog, Flora. We are so grateful to have had their help to watch her in a pinch and appreciate their responsiveness, flexibility, and great care of Flora.”

“Kristen was super responsive and flexible and did a great job caring for my puppy! She went above and beyond and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for reliable pet care in the Portsmouth area!”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets since I was a kid. I started dog walking and pet sitting during the summers in college and am looking to continue caring for your precious pets as I start a new career as a teacher. I am experienced in caring and training puppies as well as taking care of senior dogs who need extra care. I look forward to meeting your pets! I’m currently off for the summer as I am a teacher. I am very flexible schedule wise to take care of your pet’s needs on your schedule. I have been trained in dog walking and pet safety for all kinds of breeds. I will of course follow any safety requirements that you need to keep your pets safe and well loved.
“After an injury I needed a dog walker, and was very fortunate to find Eddy on Rover. He's great with our dog, and really goes above and beyond. He communicated well and responds to messages promptly. I highly recommend him!”
“Cody was wonderful with our elderly dog, Amelia. So kind and thoughtful, ready to research our particular issues. I highly recommend her, and I will be sure to remember her if I need help in the future. Thank you Cody!! Lisa A.”
“Julianne was so sweet! She took photos and brought Flynn on a long night walk, while it was drizzling! Flynn is a high energy puppy and she handled him with ease. Would highly recommend!”
About: Volunteered at a humane society for a few years in high school and owned too many pets my whole life. Ive done dogs, cats, bunnies, and they lived a long time and were very happy and healthy. I use the awful baby voice on every pet and can't help it. I am working as an assistant manager at Buffalo Wild Wings after a job lay off, I am in the design field! My hours can range, sometimes I do have to close at 1am but if 2 visits a day were needed, I would be honest about the time I would be able to care for your pet. I take what the pet parent says very seriously, does not matter how I care for my own babies it's how you care for yours. I am very open to being very communicative or just a few check ins if wanted!
About: I love dogs and they seem to love me! I do not have my own dog currently but like to think of all those I watch as my own. I love to get them (and me) out for a walk especially on a beach or nearby trail. I also have a lot of experience caring for senior dogs and can match that energy level as well! If you need references I will be happy to provide them from Wallis, Teddie, Stella, Franklin, Buna, Wally, Tater, Judy, Kaya or Koda. I work from home so would not be away from your dog for more than an hour or two. If your dog likes the car, they can join me on errands/adventures. Or we can stay close to home for walks or snuggles. I care for dogs in their own home to keep them in familiar settings and routines. Important to know if they can be let outside in yard off leash or not, feeding times, what time is typical for wake up.
“Suzanne has been walking my golden every week this summer and she has been super responsive, loving and very attentive! My dog gets so excited when she brings her dog Layla to walk with him and Suzanne sends the cutest pictures. Would highly recommend.”
“Talia is so prompt, responsive, and obviously loves dogs. Togo’s tail was wagging as soon as he saw her. Talia managed to squeeze us in on a sick day for me, which I really appreciate. Now Togo is worn out and ready for his afternoon nap. Thanks so much, Talia!”
About: Have been around dogs my whole life, always had at least one in my household. I’ve watched multiple families dogs, friends dogs, even friends of families dogs. I don’t think of them as just pets I think of them as best friends and a companion I’m currently working evening shifts at a restaurant waitressing about 4 nights a week. Most days that i work are Mondays, Wednesday’s, Fridays and Sundays the rest of the days I have completely off. I have my morning and afternoons available as well on the days that I am working. Have a pretty flexible schedule! I have a big fenced in yard with plenty of play room! Currently only have 2 cats in my household no dogs at the moment they get along really well with dogs since they’ve grown up around them but if your dog doesn’t get along with cats we have a separate area in my household where my cats usually stay so I can keep them apart.

“Tati is an excellent dog walker! She's incredibly responsive, knowledgeable about dogs, and—most importantly—genuinely kind. 😃 I always feel confident knowing my pup is in such caring and capable hands!”
About: Hi! my name is Ally! I have grown up with dogs my whole life, from Dalmatians to Jack Russell’s. I started volunteering at the NHSPCA in high school and discovered my love for helping & animals. I am a registered nurse and looking to fuel my hobby spending time with animals. I currently work full time in Dover, NH and bring my dog Poppy into the office with me. My family had a 12 year old blind Jack Russell named Sherman who was not friendly to other animals while we were growing up, so I am used to dogs on the more complicated side. I believe every animal deserves love and attention and I hope to provide that! My schedule is flexible on the weekends. I work full time but am home by 5pm so ai can do evenings as well. I love to keep animals in their routines. Even if it’s just being with them at home. I am a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter who cares a considerable amount for all animals. I will happily care for them like my own.
“Willow is a little hesitant with new people but Patrick took the time to gain her trust. I appreciate the photos and updates after each visit and he was on board with all of willows needs!”
About: I offer animal communication readings for you and your pet. You simply ask your pet questions and I relay their answers! I have been a psychic for 13 years. I work for myself so I can create my own schedule. I do my animal communication calls over zoom and am pretty flexible in terms of days/times. I can do readings for any type of animal. Clients freaking love getting readings to feel closer to their pets! I care for pets by making sure they are seen and understood. Have you ever had a sitter that could actually talk to your pet? It's a game changer!

“Michelle was great! We dropped our pup off with her for a wedding night sleepover and before we knew it he was running around playing and didn’t even care that we left. She loves dogs and treated ours as if he was her own (feeding, walks, playtime, safety). She would’ve taken him to the beach the next morning but we had to pick him up early and drive back to NYC. We would 100% recommend her when you’re in the Kittery/Portsmouth area!”
“My Otis had a blast with Kane and Colette! They gave me updates and pictures multiple times through out the day, which was amazing! Otis had a wonderful time with them, and he was able to get plenty of exercise, playtime with friends, and affection! I will definitely be booking with Kane and Colette again and I highly recommend them!!!”
“Ashley is amazing! She went above and beyond to help us board Georgia in a pinch, and made sure she was well taken care of. Awesome option for daycare or overnight boarding. Would recommend to anyone.”
“Veska is my new favorite go to person to care for our Gracie! She was awesome providing my family photos and daily updates. Very evident our Gracie became part of her family for her 2 week stay! Highly recommend!!”
“Kelsey was very accommodating of my dog Nemo, who isn't always a fan of other dogs, so she made sure he was the only dog staying with her at the time! She was very communicative as well and sent many photos, which was much appreciated. I definitely recommend Kelsey to care for your pets while you are away!”
“I am so glad and grateful that Shana and Dylan watched my pup this week. I could not have asked for anyone better!! I adopted my dog less than two weeks ago and - still getting to know her - had a trip planned and needed to board her for 5 days. I was hoping for someone to treat my dog like their own and Shana and Dylan did just that. In fact, they went above and beyond what I could’ve hoped for - letting her snuggle with them at night, sending me frequent updates and pup pics, going out of their way to pick up beef and rice and cook it for my girl when her stool was soft, and packing the rest to go when I picked her up. Their dog Cleo is a sweetheart, and joined in on the doggy snuggles. I know if I ever need a sitter again I’ll be reaching out to Shana.”
“Diamond took such great care of our dog Maple! He's sometimes a little anxious but he was completely at home there. Diamond sent frequent photo updates and even took him to work with her. We'll definitely be dropping him off here again the next time we go away.”
“I cannot speak more highly of Eric and his sweet family! They kept my dog while I had a week long work event in Boston, and they took fantastic care of her. They sent me regular photos and they promptly answered any nervous mama questions I sent their way. We were worried about her getting spooked by the fireworks over the holiday weekend, and Eric and his fam took lots of precaution to make sure she was safe and happy. The pups that live with them are sweet and they got along great with my dog. I will be booking with them again if we're ever in the area!”
“I’ll start by saying that Sheila is the most wholesome and kind person and to top it all off she loves dogs. 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!!”
“Mack and Dennis had their very first Rover sleep-away with James, and they were welcomed with open arms by his whole family. Everyone was so sweet and hospitable, and his little girl gave them plenty of cuddles, which they absolutely loved. James was incredibly easy to work with. He was responsive, flexible, and genuinely accommodating. I felt completely at ease knowing my boys were in such a warm, caring home. I would absolutely recommend James to anyone looking for a trustworthy, family-oriented sitter. We will happily book with him again.”
“Katelyn was amazing with our sweet boy Rosco. She welcomed him in to her home with open arms and made him feel comfortable. We didn’t have any concerns and definitely recommend her.”
About: I'm an animal lover and have grown up with all types of animals. I have been trusted taking care of neighbors, friends, and families pets for many years. My sister is a veterinarian so I often get the pet questions. I will go above and beyond for your pet. I work from home Monday and Tuesday so I am free to go for walks and drop by your house most of the time these days. I am in the office Wednesday through Friday and will have less time but still available. Weekends are free unless I'm away. I live on an acre of land. It is not a fully fenced yard but it is set back in a small, quiet neighborhood on a dead end road. I have an indoor cat.
“Juno had a great experience with Lorenzo while I was away . He is attentive , professional, experienced and communicated great with texts , pictures and videos . Juno will be back to play with Vito . I highly recommend him !”
“If we could give more stars we would!!! Nicholas is great at communicating, responding quickly and making sure our pup has a safe exciting time when he's with him. Our pup and Syl get along so well and it's the most precious thing to see.”
“For the first time in a long time I felt like my dog was going to be perfectly happy and well cared for while I was away. Courtney was perfect. My dog was happy and I can tell she had a great time with Courtney and her little dog. Highly recommended!!!”
“Absolutely amazing experience! Left my boy for 10 days and he couldn’t have been in a better care! She kept us updated throughout the whole stay and made sure to send daily pictures. It made me feel better knowing that he was getting so much attention and love! Will be using Felicia every time we need help!”
About: I am a kind and caring person to all animals. I’ve housesat and taken care of neighbors dogs and cats when they were away. I have experience with heat-sensitive pets so I have experience gauging pets’ comfort level in relation to outside weather. I'm free mostly anytime, I’m extremely responsible and will take careful and loving care of all animals that I take care of through rover. I’ve always loved animals and rover is a great opportunity to earn money while having fun. Dogs would get my undivided attention during walks and other services. What sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is that I truly love animals and I have time to give them the care they need. Thank you for the consideration! I currently work remote so I am flexible in regards to when a pet needs care at any time. I also have availability on the weekends. I have ample space for pets to enjoy and run around. I live in a friendly neighborhood with minimal car traffic for walks. Open backyard as well.
About: I’m a newly retired teacher and former principal that loves my doggies! Over the years, I’ve had so much love from my very special friends. Would love to give and get some loves from your treasured family member. I literally live in the middle of Stratham Hill Park and I love to walk. Only one “little guy” at a time…🥰 I’m loving my retirement and have lots of time and love to give. I have some scheduled exercise classes in the mornings but always home by 10:30. I’ve had so many dogs over the years. Routine visits to the vet are mandatory and walking, playing, and interacting with my friends are essential. I’m also very familiar with dogs with anxiety. One needs to approach this in a calm and careful way and watch the signs for anxiety coming on and be able to respond with love and kindness. Living right in the middle of Stratham Hill Park, I have easy access to the walking trails. Because I don’t know your dog, they will never be off leash but will be outside often during the day!! I love to walk. 🥰 I have a lovely crate IF your dog prefers this quiet space, but I will not be crating unless you ask me to. Typically my 11 year old grandson will come by after school to snuggle, play and go for a walk with me and your pup!
