“Lindsay was incredible with Sunny. She was very thorough during the meet and greet. She gives detailed updates with great pictures. Overall she goes above and beyond. I would definitely recommend.”

“⸻ 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: I am a retired flight attendant who grew up with dogs and throughout the years I have had many pets ranging from bunnies to cats to dogs. I am home the majority of the time, so I will be able to provide your dog with all the love and attention (or space) they need. I live in a house with a fenced in yard and a doggie door, which makes for easy access for dogs to come and go as they please - and bask in the sun on my patio. My love for dogs is unconditional and I will care for yours as if they are my own. I am retired, so I am home majority of the days and evenings. My dog recently passed away, so I thought dog sitting would be a great way to fill the companionship void. I tailor each dog's care based on their individual needs. I have a fenced in yard with a doggie door. I also have baby gates up in the house to restrict pets from certian rooms.
“Margaret took such great care of our cats, she is wonderful. She is so sweet, very caring and I hope she will take care of Olive and Otis again next time we go away! I highly recommend her!”

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!

About: I’ve taken care of pets for over 40 years now. Cats,dogs, lizards, hamsters, birds etc. Pets always warm up to me and I really enjoy my interacting with them. I have experience giving medication (both pills and liquid) in a kind, gentle way that works! I have the same concerns with my elderly pet so I understand. I am an early bird so I am available before work and also after work for visits. Morning visits availability from 5-7 am and evening from 5:30-8 pm. I truly love pets so it's enjoyable for me and I just like making a little extra spending money doing something I love! I'm at work 8:30-5 so as much as I would love to walk dogs during the week, it would have to be something that fit into my Mon-Fri work schedule. If I can see them 6am-7am before work and/or 5:30-? after work, I would be able to help dog moms/dads too! I comfort them, make sure they feel loved and cared for, not just fed. And I have the utmost respect for peoples homes and their privacy.

“Ani was amazing with our elderly cat Karina. I didn't need to worry at all during our trip because Karina warmed up to her immediately which she rarely does with unfamiliar people. Ani was extremely conscientious and thorough in her care and made sure that our elderly girl was relaxed and content with massages and plenty of love and attention. Thank you so much, Ani.”

About: I’ve taken care of family’s dogs and cats over the years. I am relied on when needed to help. Love animals since I was little. I am self employed therefore I have a very flexible schedule and can create time for any pet care that is needed. I am willing to pick up any available shifts. I have two cats at home and dog sit my sister in laws golden retriever very often. When he is here we have a great time playing in our large yard, quiet neighborhood with many walking routes.
“Sarah did a wonderful job looking after our two cats. Her updates were very detailed and really helped in letting us know how things were going back home. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter”

“Sheila did a wonderful job taking care of our older doggo. She was super attentive and kept us informed about everything that happened during her drop-in visit. And she sent plenty of photos, which was great!”

About: Growing up in a household full of pets, I have had a lot of experience caring for animals. Throughout my life, I've cared for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, fish, horses, and chickens. As an adult, it has been a wonderful experience adopting my very own cat, as well as being able to care for the pets of my friends and family. As a teacher, I am available after school hours, Monday-Friday, after 3 pm. I am also available on Saturdays from 12 pm to 7 pm. My hours will change during the summer, with more availability. I adopted my cat, Lacey, six years ago, and she has truly become my best friend. She is very well cared for and sees her veterinarian annually. As an indoor cat, she gets plenty of exercise through daily playtime and her favorite zoomies around the house. Lacey was diagnosed with asthma five years ago and has received consistent, attentive care ever since. When caring for your pet, I will make sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and safe in my care. They will receive the right balance of love, food, and play, just as I provide for Lacey. I’m also a proud chicken mom! I enjoy giving my chickens treats and watching them soak up the beautiful weather from their coop. My chickens are pets, not food, and they are cared for with the same love and attention.
About: I have owned and cared for dogs for over 14 years. I am passionate about animals and want to provide the best love and care for your furry friend. I love taking your dog on walks, playing with their favorite toys, making sure they receive the proper meals, and am comfortable giving medication when needed. I have worked in the healthcare field for 4 years so I feel comfortable following care plans and specific diets. I have experience dog sitting young and old dogs and have dog sat for weeks in a row. I am available 24/7 by text, call or email. I do not mind going on long walks or spending extra time playing with your dog to give them the proper exercise needed to keep them happy! I am more than happy to meet your dog prior to starting to put your mind at ease. I am currently an occupational therapist at a local elementary school. Since I work at a school I often have more flexibility around school breaks. Afternoons/evenings are my most open times. I have a small dog park in my complex and live close to a few parks for longer walks. Having owned a dog for 15 years I am confident in how to care for a dog in the home.
“Maeve took wonderful care of my cat while I was away! She was very professional, prompt, and provided great photos of the fun they had together. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for cat care in the future!”

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.
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.

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.
