About: Hi friends! I've been a dog lover my whole life and have experience with it all, from wobbly puppies to wise 14 year old seniors. My own pup is a 14 year old Maltese who's currently living the good life with my parents, so I understand firsthand how to care for senior dogs, including those losing their eyesight or hearing. I'm always the go to for friends and family who need a dog sitter, and I treat every pup like my own. I'd love to do the same for you! Whether it's a walk around the block, a long romp at the park, or just some cuddle time on the couch, I'm happy to match whatever your dog loves most. I've had the pleasure of walking and watching all kinds of dogs overnight, including a Mastiff, a Rhodesian Ridgeback, a Cattle Dog mix, and even a Cunucu (an Aruban street dog), so no size, energy level, or personality is too much for me. Small, big, shy, wild, high energy or low key, I've seen it all and love it all! Thanks so much for considering me! I can't wait to meet you and your pup!

My schedule is flexible, so please don't hesitate to reach out to see what works best for you! our dog's safety and comfort always come first. I pay close attention to each dog's individual needs, from a gentle pace for seniors to extra exercise for high energy pups, and stay alert to hazards like traffic, other animals, and weather. I treat every dog like my own, so you can feel at ease knowing they're in caring, responsible hands.

“Ani “The Pet-Whisper”, We had the pleasure of having Ani watch our two kittens. It was the first time we had left them home alone overnight and as typical pet parents, we were nervous. Ani made everything so easy and our kittens love her. Ani is punctual, loving, knowledgeable about many things about cats and dogs. She took great pictures, and detailed notes that helped to ease our minds while we were away. I honestly think our cats were sad to see us when we returned. I know one of them kept looking past us for Ani.”

“⸻ I’ve been trusting Abhay with my dog for the past four years, and I can’t recommend him enough. He is incredibly reliable and always punctual, which gives me such peace of mind. One of the things I appreciate most is his excellent communication. After each session, he provides thoughtful updates on how things went, which shows how attentive and engaged he is. On the rare occasion when there’s any uncertainty, he doesn’t hesitate to reach out for clarification, which I truly appreciated. It’s clear that he takes both his work and my dog’s well-being seriously. It’s a huge comfort knowing my dog is in such capable and caring hands.”

About: We are a family of 4 who love dogs and treat our guests like our own. After our last dog passed a couple of years ago, we’ve enjoyed the occasional pet sitting for our friends so much that we decided to do it more often. Dogs will get plenty of attention, playtime and exercise here. Let us know their needs and we will strive to meet them and make them feel at home. We are available for weekend, extended weekend and occasionally longer stays as a i work from home every Monday and Friday at a minimum. Dogs will be walked whenever needed. We only take 1-2 dogs at a time to ensure that your furry friends get the care and attention they deserve. We strive to accommodate our guests’ needs and make them feel like part of a family while you are away. Our side-walked neighborhood is very safe for dog walks, with great hiking trails nearby if our guests enjoy that as well.

“Justyna was excellent! She took very good care of my two fur babies. She gave medicine to my kitty and even shut the windows and turned on the ac when I asked her to over the rover app. Justyna is very friendly and easy to talk to. I definitely would recommend Justyna.”

I cannot recommend Jing highly enough! She has been caring for my dogs, Winnie and Jackson, and has been absolutely wonderful. She is reliable, consistent, and always communicates clearly, which gives me complete peace of mind when I’m away. One of my favorite things about her visits are the photos she sends. The photos she takes are incredible. I have honestly saved so many of them because they are just that good! It is obvious that she genuinely cares about the dogs and takes the time to make sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Winnie and Jackson are always excited to see her, and I know they are in great hands whenever she stops by. She is dependable, thoughtful, and truly goes above and beyond. If you are looking for someone who is trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely loves animals, I would wholeheartedly recommend Jing.

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.

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 .

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.

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.
