“Christine and Brad were very respectful of my home. They sent great pictures and updates with each check in. My dogs love them and are always excited to see trusted people are looking after them. I highly recommend Christine and Brad.”

About: I've had both cats and dogs as family members for many years. Now I currently love my family and friends' pets as if they were my own. I am recently retired after working 30+ years for the same company. I'm a home body so I'm comfortable snuggling and spending playtime with your pets. I love the outdoors and enjoy talking walks. I usually watch my friends and family's pets in the comfort of their own homes. I often have their pets at my home as well but usually for short periods, though sometimes overnight. I usually initiate playtime and welcome snuggling.
About: I've had animals my entire life. I can't imagine life without them. I have experience with a variety - birds, hamsters, rats, dogs, turtles, hermit crabs, fish, bearded dragons, and other exotics. My own dogs have taught me various tricks to give medications, and I'm experienced with severe mobility issues, wound care, and a variety of health issues. I take the care of animals very seriously. If requested, for animals recovering from injuries or seniors with arthritis, I can provide red light therapy and pemf mat treatment. I currently work full time, but am available for drop in visits or dog walking. Unfortunately, due to allergies I am unable to care for cats (unless they are still kittens under a year old), bunnies, and guinea pigs.. as much as I love them! In my own home I have a fully fenced in backyard, completely pesticide free. My dog has a set evening routine. He's allowed on all furniture and sleeps with me in my bed. I provide him ramps to his chair and the bed, even though he prefers to be carried. 😄 In your home, I will of course follow your house rules. I am a hands on learner, so I would prefer a crash course on what to do and how you like it done before the visit. Written instructions are also very helpful.
About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including dogs, cats, puppies, senior pets, fish, and turtles. Growing up with dogs of all breeds has given me a strong understanding of their unique needs, from energetic puppies to pets needing extra attention. I’ve cared for multiple families’ pets while they were away, including senior dogs and overnight stays, and have built trust through reliable care, regular updates, photos, and easy communication. I love providing pets with plenty of playtime, affection, and even a few extra surprises like new toys. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in caring hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. I currently work part-time in retail with shorter shifts, which allows me to dedicate quality time throughout the week to caring for pets. I'm available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I can often accommodate overnight stays if needed. I do my best to be flexible and am happy to help with last-minute bookings whenever my schedule allows. My goal is to provide dependable, consistent care while making sure every pet gets the time, attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Building trust with every pet is my top priority. I take a gentle, patient approach and allow each animal to become comfortable with me at their own pace. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and individual needs to help them feel safe and secure. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I treat them as if they were my own. I provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, exercise, fresh water, meals according to their routine, and lots of affection while always respecting their comfort level. I also make it a priority to follow any instructions provided by the owner, maintain a clean and safe environment, and send regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, so I know how special they are, they’re part of my family. I love spending quality time with them, whether it’s playing, cuddling, or going for walks. I’m attentive, patient, and enjoy giving each pet the care and love they deserve. I have experience with puppies and am happy to take care of senior pets. I have a part-time job, but I spend most of my time at home, so I’m looking for ways to fill my day with something I love. When I’m home, I’m always with my dog, he’s the best company! I enjoy giving pets attention, playtime, and lots of love, so caring for other furry friends fits naturally into my routine. I always follow each owner’s instructions carefully, since they know their pet best. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them plenty of love, attention, and care. I enjoy spending time playing, cuddling, and making sure each pet feels happy and comfortable.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my background as a licensed pharmacist combined with my genuine passion for caring for dogs. My professional experience has strengthened my attention to detail, reliability, and ability to follow precise care instructions, which is especially important for pets with medical needs. I am comfortable administering medications, monitoring for changes in behavior or health, and following specific routines provided by pet parents. I also have experience caring for both energetic puppies and senior dogs. With puppies, I focus on consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement to support basic training, leash manners, and house routines. For senior dogs, I prioritize comfort, gentle exercise, and close attention to mobility, appetite, and overall well-being. Whether your dog needs active playtime or calm companionship, I adapt to their individual needs to ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine as I work part-time as a pharmacist, which gives me a flexible and structured schedule. My pharmacy shifts are planned in advance, allowing me to reliably set aside dedicated time for pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits on my off days and around my work hours. Because my schedule is organized and consistent, I’m able to give pets my full attention when I’m with them rather than rushing between commitments. I enjoy starting or ending my day with walks, playtime, feeding routines, and check-ins, and I’m comfortable adjusting my availability to meet each pet’s needs when possible. This balance allows me to provide dependable, attentive care while maintaining a professional work life as a pharmacist. I would like to eventually grow this into a full time commitment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I carefully follow all instructions provided, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medication needs, and any special care directions. I treat every home with respect and make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other safety measures are handled responsibly to prevent any accidents or escapes. I work part-time, which allows me to be organized and dependable with my scheduling so pets receive focused, unhurried attention during each visit. At home, I also have a family of three teenage daughters who love animals, which helps reinforce a calm, pet-friendly mindset in my daily life. While I remain the primary caregiver during any pet sitting, our household’s appreciation for animals reflects the caring and responsible environment I bring to every visit. I always aim to build trust with both pets and their owners by being consistent, patient, and attentive, so pets feel comfortable and secure while their family is away.

About: I am experienced in working with many different types of cats and dogs. I grew up with cats and dogs and work in a shelter so I am comfortable with bathroom cleanup, administering medicine if needed, feeding, exercising, and more! Pet care is already part of my daily routine with my own pets, including feeding, exercise, and making sure my pets are happy and healthy. I provide pets with fresh food and water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention while maintaining their normal routine. In a client’s home, I also make sure the space stays clean, follow any specific care instructions, administer medications if needed, and keep owners updated on how their pets are doing.
“Lindsey was INCREDIBLE. She looked after our two (very finicky) cats for two weeks and was absolutely perfect. Not only did she send consistent updates and photos, she played with the kitties, changed their water and litter, and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and healthy. I truly felt at ease with Lindsey caring for our pets. I would recommend her one thousand percent!!”

About: I have been taking care of animals for majority of my life wanted to be a vet at a young age but chemistry kicked my butt now I'm a medical social worker. I even learned Dog CPR. My dog, Milo, I trained as a puppy is now a certified therapy dog. I work full time but my roommate is home during the summers. I love doing fun activities with my pups such as walks, hikes, dog parks or frozen towels with food for brain stimulation. Training and teaching are an added plus Fully fenced in yard and free ranged of the home if responsible but if needed we have a room we can set up a crate as well.

“Fatima is amazing! She did a great job watching my cat while I was away for the weekend. She kept me updated with lots of pictures and she took the time to play with him too. I will definitely reach out to her again in the future if I ever need a cat-sitter again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Canton
My girl!! We just LOVE Stephanie. She did a fabulous job with our 2 boys last year and when I contacted her this year to sit for us, she did not hesitate to also take on our 2 new puppies. 4 dogs is a lot to ask and she jumped right in! I don’t think I could book a vacation without her. She is communicative, so good with my babies and gets an immediate feel for everyone’s personalities. I cannot say enough good things about her. ❤️

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
