“Always an amazing experience. My two dogs were loved, pampered and had a great time. Thanks for all you did for Tod and Merle I especially appreciate your willingness to keep Merle at the last minute”
“Our dog had a wonderful time with Jillian! She had plenty of space to run and play, and received so much love and attention from the entire family. We truly appreciate how well cared for she was and are excited that we’ve already booked another stay with Jillian.”
“Oh my goodness…. If I could give Auburn a million stars I would. She’s VERY sweet and treated my baby like hers. Cookie was very comfortable and felt right at home. When I picked her up she was very clean and smelled wonderful. I can’t say thank you enough or give Auburn enough stars. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Katie took very good care of my Pomeranian, Frisco, while we were travelling. She sent me pictures and gave updates on his adjustment to her home so that I wouldn't worry. She lives near to my home which was nice and is a stay at home Mom with a little one who helped occupy(play ball repeatedly) our dog. I felt lucky to have found a reliable caregiver for our sweet dog.Thanks, Katie!”
“Emmanuel is the best! I got so many pictures and videos of my boys having the best time. After a very negative experience with another sitter, I was nervous to leave my dogs with anyone, but Emmanuel did a fantastic job and I could tell my dogs became a part of his family. I would not hesitate to use him again.”
“One of our best Rover experiences. From the initial meetup through pickup, we felt completely at ease and confident our dog was in great hands. Communication was excellent, and it was clear our dog was well cared for and happy. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend.”
“Thara had an amazing time here! Lots of room for her to play and plenty of spaces to feel comfortable. We were happy to let her have playtime in a safe environment.”
“We had an amazing experience with Megha while she cared for our 5 month old puppy during a week-long stay. She is professional, reliable, and truly great with dogs. I received daily photo updates and consistent communication, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dog looked happy and well cared for in every update! I especially enjoyed the belly rub video's!! It’s clear they genuinely love animals and take their job seriously. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”
“We booked with Kimberly to keep Teddy for 5 nights while we were away on our trip. Teddy has epilepsy so requires multiple pills a day as well as other specialities due to his illness. When we first met Kimberly and her husband they were very attentive and asked all the right questions. They even bought cameras to watch Ted if they left as we mentioned that is what we do when do at home. Kimberly made us feel at ease on our trip with daily pictures and messages and reassured any questions we had about Teddy while we were away. We plan to continue to use Kimberly for any trips we take and would strongly recommend her to anyone. Teddy truly seemed sad to leave which we see as a great sign!”
“Rene was fantastic with our 2 pups! Got daily updates and the pups looked like they had a great time and felt like family 😊 highly recommended and will book with Rene again!”
“We left our two pups with Jan & Co for a long weekend, and they had the best time! We received updates and photos everyday, so there were no worries. Jan is very thorough in the preparation so they knew exactly how to care for our pups. Even our one who is terrified of all new people loved Jan by the end of the first day - the fastest she has ever warmed up to anyone! Highly recommend these sitters!”
“Kelly was outstanding! I am so happy to have found her through Rover. Her description gave lots of detail about the effort she makes to give the dogs a safe and peaceful environment. I felt at ease from the moment she met us at the door with another dog tucked away so that our dog could get acclimated to her new surroundings first. Kelly was very good about sending us photos and updates throughout Pearl’s stay to keep our minds at ease, and I know she gave Pearl lots of snuggles. When we picked her up, she was her usual happy self. I definitely want to use Kelly again next time we are in the area. I feel confident recommending her to any pet parent!”
“I just left Mr Pillow with Michael and his wife Harley for one night in preparation for a longer boarding trip in a few days just to make sure Mr Pillow would be happy and comfortable when we are gone. I mostly communicated with Harley and really liked the whole process of first visiting their house for an intro visit, which Mr Pillow loved, then the great communication throughout Mr Pillow’s stay. I got lots of videos and photos so that helps calm my anxious mind and whenever I had questions, Harley and Michael responded on Rover app very quickly. When I picked Mr Pillow up, he actually wanted to stay more, so I am bringing him back this Friday when my family goes out of the country.”
“Jennifer is amazing. This was the first time Max was with a non-family member and he felt right at home. She sent pictures throughout his stay and that definitely made me feel even more comfortable. Great communicator and her demeanor was very welcoming and calming.. I will definitely use Jennifer again”
“We had a great experience with Mya! She watched our dog Ruby at her house. We got tons of pictures and communication. I felt comfortable knowing my demanding dog was getting all the snuggles she needs. Mya is clearly a dog person who will treat your pet like her own. We will definitely book again!”
“Tanya has a positive vibe. Her place was really clean. She asked all of the appopriate questions showing she was attentive to Tito's need. Would recommend and use again.”

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Canton can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Canton home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Canton.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Canton. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
You and your Canton sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in GA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
