“Hunter went above and beyond while caring for our three cats for this past week. When the storm was approaching, she texted me to see if I wanted her to put our water bowls in case the power went out. It did, and she did put water out. From the pics, I could tell that Emma warmed up to Hunter right away. Iris got her pills even though she was skittish. Thank you, Hunter, for taking care of the kids.”

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and experienced dog lover who has cared for a wide range of breeds, including Labs, Mini Pins, Beagles, German Shepherds, Boxers, and French Bulldogs. I’ve worked with both energetic puppies and older rescue dogs, so I’m comfortable handling everything from basic training to providing extra patience and care for dogs who may be anxious or need a little more attention. I’m very intuitive when it comes to animals and take pride in understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing and feeling safe, I’ll make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I’ll treat your dog like one of my own. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines, training methods, or special instructions you have. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐾 I currently work part-time while going through a career change and taking online classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. Because of this, I’m able to dedicate real, unhurried quality time to your furry loved one rather than rushing through visits or walks. My routine allows me to be dependable and accommodating for a variety of care needs, whether it’s daytime visits, walks, or extended time with your pet. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pet gets the attention, consistency, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to carefully listen to and understand your specific instructions, routines, and preferences so I can provide care that feels familiar and consistent for your pet. I am highly attentive and detail-oriented, ensuring that all rules—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise needs, or home guidelines—are followed exactly as requested. I respect your home and your pet’s environment, creating a calm, secure, and stress-free experience while you’re away. You can trust that your furry family member will be cared for with patience, responsibility, and genuine attention to their individual needs.

About: I grew up with dogs. I had a Great Dane that lived to be 12. I currently have a mini bernedoodle that is almost 5 years old. I also have a bunny. I currently work full-time and am available on Saturday and Sunday for boarding and dog walking. From late June through August, my schedule is more flexible. I will be available daily. I live in a quiet neighborhood in a cul-de-sac with a fenced-in yard. I have a very friendly mini Bernedoodle. I love dogs that play and lazy dogs that just like to chill.

About: I work from home so your dog will receive constant supervision and companionship. A typical day includes regular bathroom breaks every few hours, interactive playtime, and scheduled feedings. We enjoy neighborhood walks and playing in the yard to burn off energy, followed by plenty of winding-down time on the couch in the evening. I work from a home office. I have one dog who spends their day with a mix of sleeping and playing. We take multiple outdoor breaks each day. I live in a home with a yard. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I offer a secure environment, constant supervision, and strict adherence to your care instructions.

It is rewarding to come home after a few days traveling and find my loved furry cats happy and cheerful - clearly missing me, but not is a desperate "where were you" way. More like, " oh, you're back. That other human come to feed us and spoil us while you were gone and we had a great time with her!" God probably has a special place in heaven for pet sitters like Hunter, who helps rake care of our loved ones, even when those loved ones comes on four paws in a furry coat.

Adrienne was very good with girls, and both Ella annd Hiccup loved every visit she made. Not only was she amazing with the dogs, she even went as far as cleaning up the snow around our cars and front steps and offered to snow blow the driveway while we were away for the weekend which wasnt necessary but we felt very appreciative that she did/offered. She was very informative whenever Hiccup would find stuff to chew on and destroy and cleaned up any and all mess. Every dog report we got just made us smile with the cute pics she took of the dogs in the snow. Would recommend Adrienne to anyone who's looking for a really great pet sitter even if it's just to drop in for a quick visit to see how the dogs are doing.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Canton on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 2,516 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Canton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Canton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Canton. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
