About: I've owned both dogs and cats sense I was little. Throughout my childhood years I would frequently watch over the neighborhood pets. I am especially great at training the little ones as well as entertaining and exercising the energetic type! I currently work part time and am looking to fill some days with something else. When I’m not working I am home taking care of my own dog and doing chores around the house, with plenty of time and energy to take care of whatever furry friend stays with us! I have a house with a fenced backyard, with room for both small and large dogs to run around. My own dog is very friendly and loves to make friends and spend the day wrestling and playing around!

About: It seems as if I've always had a cat or dog or both since I was in grade school. At this time I have many kitties and one dog. Some of my kitties are foster kitties. Some I can pet and others I enjoy from a distance. I have 1 dog named Frannie. She is possibly a Rottweiler shepherd mix. In the past I grew up with a standard poodle. I have had a shepherd mix, another Rottweiler mix and a pit mix. I have seen all my dogs and cats thru to the rainbow bridge. I have fostered a litter of labrador puppies. That was fun! I currently help my mom with her pug mix named Chloe. I am currently working part time at a pre-school. I have Mondays, weekends, holidays and the summers off. I work until noon Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Fridays until 3pm I would need to make sure your pets are cared for before I go to work @7:15am. I have a neighbor who helps me let my dog out while I'm at work, so I would be free after work to check on your animal(s). I would then need to come back to my house and take care of my animals and then go back to check on yours. I could do that as often as needed and then longer thru the night. I anticipate every situation to be different so depending on the need. I would be able to keep kitties in my spare bedroom. I have a large screen door to put in front of the bedroom door to keep them separate from my animals if needed. I am flexible to what the needs may be

About: I have a background in caring for exotic and household pets. I have had cats growing up ever since I was little and would find strays in our yard, to the current 3 cats in our home now. I had a beagle for over 15 years, and have experience working with dogs in a boarding kennel within a veterinary clinic. I have experience working with a variety of animals including tropical saltwater fish, reptiles, amphibians, birds and mammals ranging from crocodiles to sloths and penguins. I currently have 2 lizards, a chameleon and a gecko as well. I have a background in basic training for dogs, birds and reptiles including target feeding and basic commands. I would love to come take care of your furry or scaley friends! I currently have 3 cats and 2 lizards that are taken care of on a daily basis. Each animal has their own schedule and routine that vary from eachother, so extra care is often times needed. I also recently worked for an aquarium for the past 6 years, which I was a supervisor that worked up to 12 hour days taking care of basic and advanced care needs for the animals in our facility. I can give basic medications if needed or bottle feed/syringe. I can let out your dog on a runner or lead if that is preferred. Walks are also fine, given proper training based on the specific needs of the dog. I can provide playtime and enrichment to help with extra energy that needs burned off as well.

About: I take passion in taking care of dogs and cats of all kinds! I grew up surrounded by lots of pets! Neighbors, friends, and family rely on me to walk, feed, and take care of their pets for many years. I love meeting and getting to know each pet and their unique personality! I volunteered at a dog training center for many years while I was in high school/college. I took pride in helping and interacting with all the pups! I have 4 friendly dogs; one who is Canine Good Citizen certified that I enjoy taking into nursing homes and schools to support and uplift others! I work full-time on Rover during the summer so my schedule is fairly open throughout the week and weekends!

About: I have experience caring for my neighbors' and friends' dogs. If your shift is longer than expected, I will stop by and feed or let your furry family member outside. In my spare time, I volunteer at the Humane Society to help exercise and socialize those dogs that are looking for their forever home. I can administer medication and give injection medication. I will exercise and walk your dog, play laser light with your cat, or do whatever else is requested. I will also provide watering of plants, picking up your mail, and bringing in your packages I typically do not spend the night, but we can discuss a drop-in schedule to ensure all needs are met. I can work from home during the day. We can discuss details at our meet and greet. I work full time Monday- Friday but have a flexible schedule to accommodate potty breaks and feeding times. Weekends are flexible as well. We can discuss your needs. I provide services at your home to ensure your furry family member is safe and in their familiar environment. Any extra request or needs can be discussed.

About: With over 25 years of experience caring for and loving dogs, I understand that every pet deserves to feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, drop-in visit, doggie daycare, boarding, overnight care, or simply some extra companionship, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified, giving you added peace of mind while your furry family member is in my care. I also have experience administering medications, providing basic training reinforcement, and caring for senior dogs and pets with special needs. I welcome dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Communication is very important to me, so you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages throughout your pet’s stay so you always know how they’re doing. My home features a secure fenced yard with plenty of room to run, play, explore, and relax. Located on a quiet dead-end road, it’s a peaceful and safe environment where your dog can feel comfortable and at home. If your pet is happiest in their own surroundings, I’m also happy to provide care in your home. Maintaining your dog’s normal routine helps reduce stress and separation anxiety while giving you peace of mind that they’re receiving the same love and attention they get every day. Your pets aren’t just clients—they’re family, and they’ll always be treated with the same love, patience, and care I’d give my own. I am currently working from home and my availability is very flexible. I can assure that your furbaby (s) is in the best hands and I prioritize their needs above my own I have a fenced in yard with shelter and water. I live on a dead end road so very quiet and safe. Your furbabies will have fun running and playing outdoors and indoors! If you would rather me come to your home, I’m familiar with taking care of other dogs in the safety of their current environment including over night stays!

About: Hi! I'm Lillie - your pets' new favorite person! 🐾 I have years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and ages - from wild-child puppies who need lots of patience and training, to sweet seniors who need meds, mobility help, and extra snuggles, and everything in between. I'm super detail-oriented about routines, I treat your home with total respect, and I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you never have to worry while you're away. Whether it's drop-ins, walks, or house sitting, I stick to your instructions exactly - feeding, potty schedule, playtime, and all the love they can handle. Your pets will be my #1 priority and I'll be your main sitter and communicator. My partner Justice is occasionally available to help with a walk or check-in if needed (like if I'm already booked nearby), but I'll always clear it with you first. I'd love to meet you and your fur babies! I have a flexible daily routine that allows me to dedicate quality time to pets. I currently have experience caring for my own dog and other family pets, so I’m used to regular feeding, walks, playtime, and attention. Depending on your needs, I can provide daily visits, walks, or overnight care, and I make sure each pet gets plenty of exercise, love, and supervision. I treat every pet in my care as part of my family. In my home or a client’s home, I provide feeding, fresh water, regular walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I follow each pet’s routine and any special instructions carefully, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

About: Since I was a child, I have always had animals in my home. As I got older, I began caring for friends and family's pets. When I was 16 years old, I began offering in home dog sitting services. Throughout my life I have worked for vet offices and boarding facilities. I started my own dog training company in 2017, Luna's Canine Academy. I currently work as a veterinary assistant in North Canton so you can rest assured that your pets are safe with me. I am a veterinary assistant and work 4 days a week. I have a 2 hour lunch break so I go home and let the dogs out to play on my lunch breaks. I don’t leave my dogs for more that 4-5 hours because my older dog cannot hold it for long. I have worked with dogs my entire life and am very knowledgeable in the care and safety of animals. I have many years of experience and wonderful referrals from past clients. Each dog is treated exactly how their owner would treat them. I am sure to be very thorough with my clients on what their daily routine is, what they are expecting, and what I will be providing. Safety is always my number one priority.

About: When I was born, a dog was there. My dog. Moses. I grew up with him until we were both 13 and he passed away in his sleep in my bedroom. I have had every pet since. More losses and grief, but I wouldn’t trade any memory away. Now, here I am. Ready to create more memories to accompany the old ones. All because of you, Moses. 👑 I work full-time, Monday through Friday between 8 am and 5 pm. But outside the of those hours… tell your furry friend to buckle up cause he’s/she’s gonna have trouble keeping up with all the fluffy awesomeness headed his/her way! (Unless he/she just wants to rest, of course.) We can go through any information prior to my visit, but rest assured that I am a problem solver. Trust me, I have kids. I’ll find a way through any storm and valley, and you’ll keep your peace and joy.

About: Hi, I’m Sami! I’ve had dogs and cats throughout my entire life, and caring for animals is second nature to me. I currently have three dogs of my own, all different sizes and ages, so I’m very comfortable managing multi‑dog households, different temperaments, and unique routines. I also work daily with two dogs through my job and care for them whenever my boss travels, so I’m used to maintaining consistent schedule & feeding routines. I practice balanced training with my own dogs, focusing on clear communication, confidence‑building, and creating a safe, predictable atmosphere. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love getting to know each animal’s personality. Your pets will be treated like my own with love, respect, and lots of attention. I work only 3 days a week and can be available most mornings & evenings for feeding or walking/play time. I will try to make my schedule work around your pets needs. In your home I will make sure your pet is happy & safe. Also safe on walks as I like my own dogs to have structure and clear communication

FAQs for Dog Walking - Canton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Canton on Rover is $16 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $17 per walk. walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 835 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Canton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Canton. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Canton after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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.

Every walker 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Canton. On Rover:

  • 95% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
