“Margaret has been lovely! She has taken my pup for walks while i’m working long shifts. She is patient with my crazy high energy pup! She gives me updates on how the walks went and is very responsive! I can tell she is passionate about animals!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes. From basic training of puppies to elder care, hospice care and administering medication. I’m patient, kind and enjoy all energy levels. Whether they are movie & couch potato pups, prefer swimming at the river or playing ball in the meadow, I’m always excited to give them the best time they can have. I work a rotational schedule allowing me to have blocks of 3 weeks off at a time. During that time I am fully available for any pet care needs. have over 3 acres of woods & meadows for frolicking that back up to more wooded areas, I’m a short drive from two beautiful river walks or swimming (seasonal). I do have crates available if needed. I have a good selection of pet basic first aid and hygiene supplies.
About: My family have had rescue dogs since before I was born and I was raised around a variety of dogs of different temperaments and energy levels. I am comfortable with timid and reactive dogs and have trained my dogs to perform a variety of tricks. I work remotely and generally open availability, though I am not available on the weekends. I am ideal if your dog needs mid-day walks or company while you are away at work. I live with both cats and dogs and don't offer in-house pet sitting but am comfortable traveling to you to walk or watch your pet.
“Alicia is the best! My boy loved her and she was very in tune with his needs. Her experience was valuable for me to learn from. He was so happy after his walk to have a special friend :)”
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, even alpacas and horses! Since I was around 7 years old. I have a genuine love for all animals and would do anything to make sure they’re all loved! I have experience with senior dogs, who need special care and medication, as well as puppies, who need that time to get their extra energy out as well as doing some training for simple commands. I’ve also trained dogs to run or walk while biking and rollerblading I have also helped with toy and food aggressive and help families with dogs who are nervous around men to become more comfortable. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of free time to housesit do check-ins, really whatever is needed and I can be available on short notice! Well, being in your home, I will always be very courteous and clean, making sure that myself and your animals are safe, comfortable and loved

I have worked at a dog daycare for 3 years and now am currently working as a Tech at a Veterinary Clinic now going on for 5 years!

Over 17 pet parents in Canton have booked dog walking
Canton dog parents share their Rover experiences
Lydia was really great with our nervous dog Blue. She was very pleasant to organize with, she was flexible and on time. Given how nervous he was, it was a miracle she was still able to give us some free time to watch our son's tennis match. She definitely has a lot of dog management skills and her calm nature made it easier for me to let him go despite his fear. I will definitely be booking more walks with Lydia in the future!
