Personalized, Professional Pet Care Since 2014


At Nature Calls Dog Walking & Hiking, we know your dog is more than a pet—they’re family. That’s why we’ve built a team of trained, compassionate pet care professionals who treat your dog like their own. Since 2014, we’ve proudly served the Dover area of New Hampshire with personalized adventure walks, hikes, and exercise services for dogs of all breeds and energy levels.


We’re Veterinarian-Recommended, backed by dozens of 5-star reviews, and passionate about giving your pets the enrichment and attention they deserve.

Recognized for Excellence


We're honored to be recognized by our clients and community:


  • Best Dog Walker in Rochester - 2024

  • Top 5 Dog Sitter in Maine – 2021

  • Top Pet Service in New England – 2019

  • Best Dog Walker in Dover – 2015 & 2016


Consistent, High-Quality Care—Every Time


No matter which member of our team visits your home, your dog will receive the same high standard of care. Here’s how we make that happen:


  • Comprehensive Meet & Greet: We gather detailed information about your dog’s routine, behavior, and preferences.

  • Cloud-Based Care Notes: All instructions are stored securely and reviewed twice before every visit.

  • Real-Time Oversight: A Team Lead monitors visit reports and communication to ensure top-quality service.


Your dog’s first visit is always with a Manager or Team Lead—usually someone they’ve already met. We never send a new team member in "cold." That way, your pet is always comfortable, and you feel confident.

  • Your dog will know and trust multiple team members.

  • We always have someone available—no missed visits due to illness or vacation.

Meet Christine Campbell


Founder | Owner | Manager | Trainer



Hi! I’m Christine, the heart behind Nature Calls. I started this company to give busy pet parents peace of mind—knowing their dog is getting the exercise, adventure, and love they need when life gets busy.

A Lifetime of Animal Care

I’ve been professionally caring for pets since 1998, with 13 years in the veterinary field and almost 20 years in pet sitting. I’ve worked in specialty hospitals, emergency clinics, and exotic animal care, earning certifications and striving to learn as much as possible along the way.


As a former veterinary professional, I know the importance of having a trained pet care provider to look after your pets. That is why I have such high standards for training my Team Members.


Certifications & Expertise Include:


  • Pet CPR & First Aid

  • Veterinary Technician National Exam (2006)

  • Companion Animal Laser Therapy (2011)

  • Purina Certified Weight Coach (2014)

  • Raw Dog Food Nutrition Specialist (2020)


Nature Calls began as a passion project in 2014 (originally VetPro Pet Care) and has grown into a trusted name in pet care across the Seacoast. When I’m not hiking or caring for pets, you’ll find me exploring the outdoors, singing, or geeking out over motorcycles and airplanes.


I live in Somersworth with my cat, Mack the Ripper.
