“Katie has been watching Daisy for several years for us in the summer, we went to CO over Christmas and booked with Katie. This time Katie also sat our cat. My animals come home happy, clean and feed. Being able to count on someone to care for my babies is so important to me, my husband and I feel like we are leaving them with family.”
“Beth was a great caregiver! I feel fortunate to have had a person who knew what my dog needed for exercise and care. Beth’s attitude was laid back and she had a great house and yard for my dog. Her dog was very laid back too.”

My two dogs are also here to play and keep your dogs company. I have two dogs to keep your dog company and play. I also have an invisible fence so they can come in and out as needed.
“Becky was great. She accepted the booking quickly and communicated well throughout. The photos showed a group of very happy dogs - these are some of my favorite photos of my little guy. My dog can't bear to be left alone and is a sweet but insistent snuggler. He also gets the zoomies when he is nervous. She welcomed him with open arms and settled him quickly. She was sorry to see him leave, but he will definitely be back!”
“I was very happy with the care my dog, Poppy, received with Jeanne. She provided regular updates and photos and was very responsive every time I contacted her. I will definitely use her in the future.”
“Karen and her husband took great care of my fur baby and made me feel so secure leaving him with them. I have definitely found a permanent home away from home for Noah. Thank you so much!”
“We recently left our 4 1/2 month old puppy, Harry, with Michelle. We were on vacation in Maine and were not able to bring him to our rental. Michelle sent us tons of photos and gave us updates on how Harry was doing. We would recommend her to anyone looking for in home dog care in the southern Maine area. Harry was happy upon our arrival to pick him up, we are very grateful that we found Michelle on Rover!”
About: I love to make sure your babies are happy, safe and comfortable so that you can enjoy your time away without worry! FaceTime, texts and consistent communication is what makes me your best choice! Former special educator, patience is my virtue! Weekday social worker, so I’m off on weekends routinely, which coincides with families wanting some getaway time. Occasionally available weeknights for walks and drop ins. Weekends are more flexible, and I’m usually available AM/PM or both. Looking to begin boarding in the Fall 2025 Primarily, I can come to your house for care. Occasionally, happily ready to provide care in my home for dogs on weekends. Walking trails and small yard. Other dogs are plentiful here, I will always keep your dog leashed at all times. I’m not against an occasional pup cup trip but have also respected gluten free diets as well.
“Thank you for taking very good care of Jenny. Appreciate the cute photos and stories about what she has been up to while we were away. My return home got delayed and Colette was so helpful and flexible allowing my neighbor to receive her back for return. Love this extra service that makes going away less stressful. Thanks again.”
“Our dog was beaming when we picked him up. Noreen was super communicative and took pictures to keep us posted. He had a great time on the farm! We will definitely use her services again!”
“Chelsea was fantastic! She was very responsive and I felt so comfortable sending our pup to Chelsea for 3 nights. She sent updates and answered all of our questions in a timely manner. We will be back soon!”
“My Nutty aka Nutmeg had an awesome time! Loved the pictures and videos - Thank you Jaclyn & family! He is a one person dog, loves other dogs, but he does not do well sequestered away, crated, etc. He needs people interaction and cuddling! He got tons here. Nutty is high energy and loves room to run so the fenced yard was golden. Lol. Usually he doesn't eat when I'm not around but he ate all his food! I was amazed. So this is definitely my go to place from now on.”
About: I love and care for my own dog Finnley—my life is truly built around him. I’ll be offering that same level of love and attention to any dog in my care. If you or anyone you know ever needs help, I’d love to be considered. Please feel free to share my name with any family or friends who might be looking! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home by 2:45 each day, which allows me to be present and attentive in the afternoons and evenings. I take the dogs out for a walk and make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and care as part of my normal day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure environment where they’ll be well cared for at all times. My dog Finnley is very friendly and loves the company of other dogs, so your pup will have a built-in buddy to keep them happy and comfortable.
“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!!”
About: I bring advanced handling experience rooted in a family history of breeding and training German Shepherds. My co-host is my 9.5-year-old female GSD; she is exceptionally well-trained, gentle, and fantastic with friendly dogs of all sizes. Your dog will get premier care, plenty of exercise, and a stable, balanced environment. I own my own company and work from home. Pet care is something that happens between clients and as the dogs need. Since getting Sia, working from home was a critical requirement to give her the attention she needed to succeed. That has blossomed into a fantastic environment where you can be sure that your dog will receive supervised playtime, time in a yard, and a swift response to any potential issues. I have a back yard where the dogs are allowed to run free, if your furry friend is comfortable and responsible off leash. Sia, my 9.5 year old GSD, helps to keep friends close. I also routinely walk at Gleason Pond and bring the dogs there daily. I am comfortable with medical protocols and am practiced at giving advanced care as needed. I always approach care and supervision from the perspective of “setting the dog up for success” and do my best to make sure they’re happy, well fed, and comfortable.
“Lorenzo was great! Excellent communication. He sent pictures or videos every day that our pup stayed with him. He has great outdoor space and two dogs of his own for built in playmates.”

“Jason was super thorough when communicating and reporting back on how Myles was doing while we were away! Very quick to respond to our last minute request as well, which made us feel good, when becoming a new client. You can tell he loves his job! We will definitely be using him again! Thanks!!!”
“Hiring Tara was my first experience with using Rover and I'm so happy for that decision! My other searches for finding help left me down to the wire with finding a sitter for my cats while we were on vacation. Tara was prompt with her responses and saves the day! I had not left 3 if my 6 cats alone overnight before, so I was very nervous, but she did such a fantastic job taking care of all my babies. I loved getting pictures of them every day, which also made my kiddo very happy. I'm so appreciative of the fantastic care Tara provided and we will definitely hire her again in the future.”
About: I am a people and an animal person. I love dogs more than anything and I also love cats. I used to have a puppy but she had very serious health issues and unfortunately passed and I now have two more dogs. I have experienced with sick dogs and have also given insulin shots for a diabetic pup that I sometimes care for. No job is too big for me, I love animals of all sizes. I have two dogs of my own so I am used to tending to their wants and needs. They are constantly going on walks and being played with. I frequently find different enrichment ideas for them. Animals make mistakes and have accidents from time to time so I think it’s important to not yell but rather give them more love. My dogs have anxiety so I know how important it is to make them feel safe and loved.
About: I was raised with cats in my household from birth until around 2021 when my last one had passed on. I grew up with them in my own home but also my family members homes where I would help care for them. I currently own a 1 year old cat, named Lucky Puff or Scotch, whom I nursed back to life from 2 months old that arrived at my clinic as a stray.
“Thank you for helping us out so last minute - it’s wonderful having someone so trusting and good with our cats that is local to help when we are out of town. We love that they know and like you!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I have taken care of my own dogs as well as friends and neighbors. I have experience with labs, golden retrievers, German shepherds, Rottweilers, and pit bulls mostly but love all dogs. I currently work full time Monday-Friday (this is important to note when booking me for house sitting) and would love to help people with walking their pets/letting them out after work or on the weekends. I can’t have pets in my apartment and greatly miss interacting with dogs! I am very respectful of other people’s homes. I am clean and appreciate instructions/rules on where food, collars/leashes, treats, etc are. I will keep your furry companions company, provide long walks, and scratches of course!
About: Hello there! My name is Kevin. I am an animal lover working remotely with a flexible schedule. I can work from anywhere with a good internet connection. I will be there for your pets as needed and keep you informed about the experience. My sister also works from Rover and she communicated that there was a need for local and committed dog walkers in the Somersworth/Dover area. What a great idea! If you're looking for a local dog walker who can commit to walks or drop-ins around set days every week, I'm happy to help with that. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. If the stay is from Monday to Friday, I only need a strong internet connection to work remotely. ~ WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT ~ We will review anything you'd like before you leave, and I will do my best to accommodate.

About: Hi! I’m Samara and I am a HUGE animal lover. I’ve been taking care of and been around sorts of animals since I was 13. From farm animals (chickens, goats, horses) to household pets such as dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles and fish. I have experience with many different breads as well as ages of animals. I am comfortable taking care of animals that need medications as well as I have cared for diabetic animals that need injections, seizure medication and eye meds. With my extensive background and love for animals I ensure I am always extremely attentive to their needs and behaviors. I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and any pet I care for, I treat it like my own. There is nothing more special than are furbabies and I want you to know that I will give them 110% care each and every time I care for them! I am a morning person and work from home. I have 1 young cat (who basically acts like a dog) in my home along with an 2 month old corgi pup and an 12 year old lab mix. Always make sure there are fresh, clean and filled water bowls! Sometimes on the weekend I will take them to a walking trail or dog park. I always ensure my pets are taken care of first and since I work from home it really allows me to cater my schedule around their needs. My animals are truly my world. Comfort is the most important part! A lot of our time is always great, off leash and the ability to be free and sniff around. I always keep and eye on the pets to make sure everyone is acting appropriately and behaving. I will send videos and pictures and make sure you are always kept in the loop on your pets status. I am also a very active person so enjoy going for walks and runs!
“Clarke was great with our meet and greet. She was pleasant to talk to and was great with our dogs. She was attentive to instructions on how to care for our two dogs. Our dogs are old 12 and 14 yo so they occasional have accidents in the house and on our walkways, Clarke was warned about the issues. We were pleased with how well she dealt with the dog's accidents while we were away. Our house was left clean and our walkway was clear. While we were on our vacation, Clarke took pictures of our dogs for us. When we needed to sent Clarke text messages, she was quick to respond back to us regarding our dogs' status. Overall, it was a great experience having Clarke take care of our 2 dogs. I highly recommend her and will use her again if she is available during the time we need her for a job.”

“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!”

“Rebecca is fantastic! Stormy had a great day with her and felt right at home. After daycare, Rebecca dropped her off at my house (before I was home) and got her all settled for me. I came home to a happy and tired dog. I loved getting all the pictures and videos and updates!”
“Tessia was great! She updated me periodically to let me know how my dog was doing through updates via the Rover app. She was also great enough to pick my dog up and drop him off as needed! Would recommend her to anyone!”
“Gary is outstanding with Otter! Otter has so much fun at Gary's doggie resort that he grabs his 'adventure' bag and brings it to me to remind me it's time to go to Gary's for daycare! I highly recommend him, he is fantastic!”
About: I’ve owned and worked with dogs my whole life. I am the owner of a grooming salon and have worked in dog daycares as well as an animal hospital. We will treat your pups like our own! 🥰 We like to stick with what they are used to at home. Sleep on the bed? No prob! Snuggle on the couch? You got it! But if you have rules you are working on we are happy to help with those too. We have a large fenced in yard but the snow is high right now. So to be safe we are only taking dogs under 30 lbs. I have always specialized in senior dog care so if you have e an older buddy they are in good hands! ♥️Can’t wait to meet your pups! Also, we have 2 small dogs so yours must be ok with other pups. My husband and I both work from home so it’s easy for us to give the pups attention and care all day. Together we have plenty of time for walks, play, and snuggles! I have a large fenced in yard, but if you prefer walks that’s totally doable. I also have a Chinese crested mix and a Schnoodle who are very used to new dogs in the home. We also have baby chicks in the house until spring but they are in enclosures. In case your pup has a high prey drive, they can be moved to a safer area. 😆
About: Been taking care of pets for 18 years from cats to medium size dogs and I love it and make sure you do as well. I can take care of your pets full time or part time I'm really flexible and I'll work around your schedule for best outcome for you. I'll Introduce them to my home and make sure they are comfortable before we play or if they have energy ill take for a walk or use a toy Inside
“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!!”
“Jeanne was perfect for what I wanted in a dog sitter while visiting a non-dog friendly town. She was flexible about days and hours, she had a safe and cool place for my dog, and she had just the right number of dogs so there was plenty of play time but everyone was looked after. The photo she sent me on my dog’s first day of him asleep on her kitchen floor was all I needed to feel entirely comfortable bringing him back.”
About: Iv had pets my whole life and have pet sat for friends and family many times in the past. I live on the second floor so it might be hard for senior dogs unless they don’t mind being carried, I’m relatively strong so heavier pets won’t be a problem, I can provide puppy pads for puppies and have a large litter box that is sanitized between uses. I am not currently working so I have all the extra time in the world, My children are at school for 8 hours of the day so if your pet(s) prefer no kids the morning/afternoon would be best for you, they’re older and calm kids who love pets so if your pet is ok with kids they’ll get along great. I have an unfenced yard but not many neighbors, I have a fenced in balcony and lots of trails for walking dogs if that’s what they would like to do.
“Ashley is amazing with dogs, and provides a safe yet busy and fun environment that all but guarantees leaving your pup happy and tired. We are so thrilled to have found her and plan to leave our mini doodle Sam with her again and again. Highly recommended!”
“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!”

About: Like many people, I grew up with cats and dogs. But I believe I have the compassion and understanding of animal behavior to provide a unique care experience for others’ pets. I live with a highly energetic protective herding dog who has taught me a lot about animal behavior and understanding their unique needs. I am a big believer in giving animals the stimulation and exercise they need to stay happy. If I care for your pet, they are like my own. I’m a full-time remote worker who occasionally travels for my job. I am able to take pets on walks during lunch breaks and after my job. I can get up pretty early to accommodate potty breaks. If I have to leave for work, it is usually only for a few hours at a time. I do not do home sits in my home. But I am more than willing to take animals on however many walks they typically expect and adapt to their sleep schedule so that their routine is minimally impacted. If owners are comfortable with it I’m also happy to take pets on hikes/bigger adventures.
About: Hello! My name is Tai, I am 25 and I have lived in New Hampshire for my entire life, along with my dog and cats. I recently completed my masters and now work as a Project Manager. I enjoy hiking, cooking, or just snuggling my pets in my free time. I have a 2 year old Maine Coon, and have nursed 3 domestic shorthair kittens who were 4 weeks of age to then be adopted by their forever families. I also care for my two very large 100 lb + family dogs who love go howl! My availability varies from day to day but aim to be as flexible as you need me to be as I work from home! My special skills include being connecting with many animals, showing my compassion and love while also training and ensuring their safety. I am currently flexible with my availability, and can discuss various schedule adjustments in order to fulfill your pets needs! I am flexible with work and often times can work from your home! I treat everyone’s home as if it is my own, and treat their pets as my own. Dependent on what the pets need, I will conform to their preferences and needs in order to safely and comfortably keep them enriched until their parents come home!
“Clarke is a wonderful dog walker: responsible, communicative, dependable, and wonderful with our little dog. She fed, watered, and walked Bitty without fail, which completely put my mind at ease. Since she goes away to college, she’s not always in Michigan, but I’ll want her to help care for Bitty wheboshe has time.”
About: I love animals and giving thwm so many snuggles. I have taken care of 4 dogs at once for three days. Two who are sisters, and very energetic puppies. I have that high energy, but know how to be neutral too. I'll send photo and video updates...except of the ones where I am singing and dancing to my own music, which are songs about your pet. What can I say? Feeling inspired! I usually have a lot of availability! I encourage you to inquire:) I try my best to keep my calendar up to date! I will let you know if that works. I am very timely with replies. If I do not reply the day of, I will the next day. Communicate safety rules with owners prior to pet sitting, and making sure I know where everything is located, such as, food, leash, vet phone, medications. Whether or not your baby is sensitive to certain things like being touched or picked up, if they prefer calm energy or high energy. I also communicate the whole time with pet parents to reassure that their baby is in good hands and happy. Please include emergency contacts. I always leave the key hidden where it was found, in the event that there is an emergency. I haven't had this occur, but it's a good precaution
“Drew has truly been amazing at taking care of our little puppy ! She has been very easy to communicate with and very flexible. Given that our schedules change frequently. She gives us updates on Callaway and even offered extra help when Callaway was sick. Can’t thank her enough!”
“First time using Rover. I chose Jason. Very professional and great with my dog. It was a relief knowing my dog was in good care. I was pleased with the daily update and will definitely use Jason again”
“Sarah has been walking Jenny weekly for a month or so now in the middle of the day. She has been lovely, and taken Jenny on adventures around town. Sarah has also been flexible when my schedule has changed which I appreciate. I will definitely be booking again!”

About: I have been around dogs all of my life and I have grown up with Boxers. When I was in high school I would watch dogs in my town very frequently, from staying overnight to just walking and letting them out during the day. I currently work full time in Portsmouth. I work in the office M-F but I can make arrangements if your pet needs to be let out during the day. I am respectful and courteous of my clients homes. I clean up after myself and I always keep my clients updated during my stay by providing pictures and reaching out if needed.
“April, Was amazing with my pup Carlos. She helped us out at the last minute. She really took her time at the meet and greet. It was clear from the start she is passionate about caring for animals. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to how pups react to situations. Carlos was at ease with her. We definitely wound have her walk Carlos again.”

“Katie has been watching Daisy for several years for us in the summer, we went to CO over Christmas and booked with Katie. This time Katie also sat our cat.

She was sorry to see him leave, but he will definitely be back!”

FaceTime, texts and consistent communication is what makes me your best choice! Former special educator, patience is my virtue! Weekday social worker, so I’m off on weekends routinely, which coincides with families wanting some getaway time. Occasionally available weeknights for walks and drop ins. Weekends are more flexible, and I’m usually available AM/PM or both. Looking to begin boarding in the Fall 2025 Primarily, I can come to your house for care. Occasionally, happily ready to provide care in my home for dogs on weekends. Walking trails and small yard. Other dogs are plentiful here, I will always keep your dog leashed at all times. I’m not against an occasional pup cup trip but have also respected gluten free diets as well.
“Thank you for taking very good care of Jenny. Appreciate the cute photos and stories about what she has been up to while we were away. My return home got delayed and Colette was so helpful and flexible allowing my neighbor to receive her back for return. Love this extra service that makes going away less stressful. Thanks again.”
“Our dog was beaming when we picked him up. Noreen was super communicative and took pictures to keep us posted. He had a great time on the farm! We will definitely use her services again!”
“Chelsea was fantastic! She was very responsive and I felt so comfortable sending our pup to Chelsea for 3 nights. She sent updates and answered all of our questions in a timely manner. We will be back soon!”
“My Nutty aka Nutmeg had an awesome time! Loved the pictures and videos - Thank you Jaclyn & family! He is a one person dog, loves other dogs, but he does not do well sequestered away, crated, etc. He needs people interaction and cuddling! He got tons here. Nutty is high energy and loves room to run so the fenced yard was golden. Lol. Usually he doesn't eat when I'm not around but he ate all his food! I was amazed. So this is definitely my go to place from now on.”
About: I love and care for my own dog Finnley—my life is truly built around him. I’ll be offering that same level of love and attention to any dog in my care. If you or anyone you know ever needs help, I’d love to be considered. Please feel free to share my name with any family or friends who might be looking! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home by 2:45 each day, which allows me to be present and attentive in the afternoons and evenings. I take the dogs out for a walk and make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and care as part of my normal day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure environment where they’ll be well cared for at all times. My dog Finnley is very friendly and loves the company of other dogs, so your pup will have a built-in buddy to keep them happy and comfortable.
“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!!”
About: I bring advanced handling experience rooted in a family history of breeding and training German Shepherds. My co-host is my 9.5-year-old female GSD; she is exceptionally well-trained, gentle, and fantastic with friendly dogs of all sizes. Your dog will get premier care, plenty of exercise, and a stable, balanced environment. I own my own company and work from home. Pet care is something that happens between clients and as the dogs need. Since getting Sia, working from home was a critical requirement to give her the attention she needed to succeed. That has blossomed into a fantastic environment where you can be sure that your dog will receive supervised playtime, time in a yard, and a swift response to any potential issues. I have a back yard where the dogs are allowed to run free, if your furry friend is comfortable and responsible off leash. Sia, my 9.5 year old GSD, helps to keep friends close. I also routinely walk at Gleason Pond and bring the dogs there daily. I am comfortable with medical protocols and am practiced at giving advanced care as needed. I always approach care and supervision from the perspective of “setting the dog up for success” and do my best to make sure they’re happy, well fed, and comfortable.
“Lorenzo was great! Excellent communication. He sent pictures or videos every day that our pup stayed with him. He has great outdoor space and two dogs of his own for built in playmates.”
“Hannah did such a great job with our German shepherd, I’m so glad we found her and we will definitely use her going forward! Great communication and very pleasant to deal with! Thanks so much for taking great care of our girl!”
