“I can not say enough good things about how our pets were cared for. This was the first time we had ever left them for more than an afternoon and were a bit nervous. She took perfect care of our fur babies and kept us informed the whole time. Will absolutely have her come again.”
“Like always Katie is the best for our doggies. They love her, she loves them. We love it when she drops in for a walk and feed them. We leave our dogs at home with peace of mind when Katie comes over.”
About: I've had doggies since I was 8, and I've helped take care of other people's pups since I was 12. I've had lots of experience with the elderly and disabled pups as well. I have had training experience, but am not quite experienced enough to call myself a trainer. If there is training you would like to continue working on with your pups, I will do my absolute best to help in any way I can. Ps. I have a beautiful 10-year-old husky and pointer mix named Skye, she is who you see in the photo! I am a college student with a part-time remote job, so my schedule is very open. I would love a job that would help me get outside more often and spend some time with animals! I am a huge animal lover; Fur babies truly make the world go around! While right now I can't take your fur babies into my home. I have a lot of experience in pet sitting for fur babies in other people's homes, and I will respect any boundaries you set. I completely understand that having a safe person with your animals and in your home is the top priority, and I will do everything I can to make you and your animals feel safe, whether just for walks or longer-term sitting stays.
About: I’ve been a dog sitter since I was 10, neighbors relied on me to feed and walk their pets. We’ve had dogs in our family for twenty years. I’m experienced with large and small dogs as well as dogs with seizures and heart problems. Hi! I’m a part-time employee with a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time during the day for drop-ins, walks, or snuggles with your pup. I also welcome overnight guests, so whether you need quick check-ins or extended care, I’ve got you covered. Your pets will get lots of love, attention, and play while you’re away! I have a fenced in yard that will keep your fur babies safe. I live on a culdasac that has limited traffic and a neighborhood with beautiful areas to walk along the sidewalk. I typically walk my goldens 1.5 miles a day. I have a baby gate that prevents the dogs from going upstairs if needed, and another gate at the stop of the stairs to prevent them from going down if stairs are a problem for your fur baby. Dogs are like people in our home, always with us, cuddling on the couch and sleeping in our rooms. I crate trained my dogs as puppies and am familiar and comfortable with crates if one is dropped off.
“We are so grateful for the wonderful care Caylen provided for our old man. She handled his shyness with such patience and kindness, and it was clear she genuinely cared about his well being. She was extremely punctual, dependable, and consistently went above and beyond. Her communication was excellent throughout our time away, keeping us updated and giving us peace of mind that he was in great hands. We came home to a happy, well cared for dog and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”
“Amanda was an excellent sitter for my cat! She sent daily photo updates which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she genuinely cared for my cat and treated her with so much kindness. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable sitter.”
“Regan is amazing! Our meet and greet went great but during the visit my dog was nervous, barking and keeping his distance. Regan took the time to make him feel comfortable and now he loves when Regan visits! I appreciate Regan so much. I'll definitely be booking again.”
“Summer was great with my two cats! One of my cats is very cautious when meeting new people, but with Summer he warmed up to her very quickly. Summer played with my kitties and made sure that they got lots of attention. I really appreciated that Summer sent pictures of my fur babies while I was out. Seeing them lounging and playing, gave me the added reassurance that they were happy and well taken care of.”
“Amy is the best person I have ever had watch my dogs. I am very picky because my elderly German Shepherd requires a lot of attention to detail. She was on top of everything and took it all in stride doing exactly what was needed. Her calm demeanor and confidence is exactly what we need. She’s also very intelligent and was in lockstep with everything I said about dosing, potty timing, etc because it’s a fine balance with keeping my older Shepherd going. Anyone with a German Shepherd knows how discriminating and smart they are and they love Amy. So do we!”
About: At the age of 10 I got my first dog. Ever since then I knew that was what I wanted to do with my life. I knew I needed to be the voice for these precious creatures. To me every animal is deserving of love and I can promise you I will treat every one of your fur babies as if they are my own. I currently work as a veterinary assistant while I am working to get my degree as a veterinary technician. i’ve worked at many clinics, boarding, daycare and grooming facilities I am very educated on the means of animal care & behavior. I guarantee your pets are in good hands! I have one friendly dog to keep your pups company! My apartment complex has plenty of space for your babies to enjoy! I have extra crates if anyone needed a break or if i’m leaving the apartment. So you wont have to worry about anyone being unsupervised. as well as enrichment toys & treats.
“Cindy was awesome, we were anxious leaving our elderly pup with someone new and she made the process so easy start to finish. She sent wonderful photos multiple times a day to let us know Faith was doing well and we felt at ease on our trip knowing our pup was getting good care!”
“Caden was great with my babies while I was away. He was able to give my asthmatic cat his inhaler which can be a difficult task to do, especially for someone new. Recommend Caden for anyone in need!”

Brooke was amazing!! She took on our last minute booking with two huge rambunctious dogs, one needing a pill everyday, and she did it without batting an eye. It’s the first time we’ve ever left them longer than overnight, and that was with family they see everyday. Brooke graciously accommodated my furmom anxiety sending pictures in her updates. Brooke maintained excellent communication and showed attentiveness and kindness thought out the booking, which included 5 visits to our home. Brooke saved our vacation and I’m so grateful and thankful the pups and I found her. 11/10 would recommend.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Canton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Canton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
