Diane is an excellent pet sitter! She was very communicative while we were gone - sending photos and updates on how our kitties were doing. She cared for them like they were her own. The litter boxes and house were in great shape when we returned as well. I highly recommend Diane!

Kelly is an absolute rockstar. She took detailed notes on how to care for my puppy, and asked questions I hadn’t even thought of. Upon meeting her, I felt confident trusting her with my fur baby as her kindness and compassion is so clear and obvious. My pup immediately was obsessed with her, and we all know dogs are the best judge of character!! I have to travel for work quite often and I have never felt more comfortable leaving my baby behind because I knew he was in the best hands. I received a thorough recap of their time together each day, which also included a whole bunch of adorable pics which made me smile and know he was doing great despite my absence. I will 100% be booking with Kelly again in the future!! Kelly, thank you for everything you did for my family this week, we are truly so grateful!!!!

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!

Jenna took care of my 2 cats while I was away for a week. 1 of my cats LOVES attention so she always took pictures of petting him. My other cat is very shy, so his pictures were always taken under the bed. L It was a relief to know they were well cared for while I was gone.

Cassie and her daughter, Grace, were fabulous sitters for our three Havanese. Having used Rover for over a decade for home stays, this time, we needed a sitter for just a few hours, as we visited the NFL Hall of Fame They both showed up on time and made a fabulous first impression and more importantly, our dogs immediately loved them both. They went beyond typical dog sitters with a warmth and care, I wish every dog sitter had. We felt completely comfortable with their care and I think our dogs were even disappointed when we returned. I wholeheartedly recommend Cassie for pet sitting. She's FABULOUS!!! <3

About: Life long animal lover - dogs, puppies, cats, horses, ponies and many others. Semi retired and on a flexible schedule so I have time to shower kindness and caring on your pets while you’re away. I have experience in obedience training and worked as a professional groomer for both dogs and cats. I was adopted by my 2 fur babies (both rescues) and I frequently watch my grand dogs. Please contact me if you are needing help with your pet(s) during work days or while on vacation. I also have experience in the health care field (for humans) which is helpful in taking care of pets with special needs. I am available most of the time. I’m semi retired and have occasional commitments but will always put your pet as a priority if they are under my care. Am happy to care for your pet! I prefer to have pets crate trained to stay in my home overnight; owner would need to provide the crate. This is just for their safety! I will come to your home to walk, play and feed your pets as desired!

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

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: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve self-trained my own dogs and I’m comfortable reinforcing basic obedience commands like sit, stay, leave it, and leash manners (especially helpful for puppies and energetic dogs). I also have experience caring for a dog with seizures who requires medication, so I’m confident with administering meds and supporting pets with special routines or extra care needs. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly helped neighbors and friends with pet sitting and daily care. I’m attentive, calm, and safety-focused, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I also groom and bathe my own dogs, and while full grooming isn’t typically part of my services, I’m absolutely willing to help if an urgent situation arises. I’m self-employed and work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of needs. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks and check-ins, including hourly relief when needed, and I can do multiple drop-ins throughout the day. Because I’m home often, I’m also able to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and routine support. Care looks a little different depending on whether I’m in your home or mine, but my top priorities are always safety, routine, and clear communication. I expect to communicate frequently during your pet's visit with me. In my home: For daycare or boarding, I require that dogs are crate trained, since dogs will be crated overnight and anytime I’m not home. I also require up-to-date vaccine records to keep everyone safe. I have two dogs of my own, so I carefully monitor introductions and compatibility. We do have a yard, but it is not fenced, so all outdoor time is supervised and on-leash. In your home: During our meet & greet, we’ll go over your pet’s routine in detail (feeding, potty breaks, walks, medication, etc.). I ask that any important care instructions are also listed in your pet’s Rover profile in writing, so everything is clear and consistent. I’m happy to follow your household routines as close as possible during the visit.

About: I love all animals, but I truly believe a home just isnt a home without a dog...or several. :) I only have one of my own now. My Precious is an Australian Shepherd mix. She rescued me 8 years ago.☺️ Now, she is my copilot as we embark on a nomadic adventure across the US. We both look forward to meeting other dogs and their families along our journey.🐾 I am not a dog trainer, however, I have been working with Precious using Cesar Milan's methods of dog psychology. Any specific questions, concerns, special routines, anything your dog needs to feel comfortable, I am happy to do all I can to accommodate. Feel free to contact me with any questions you might have. We look forward to meeting you! I'm setting out on a nomadic adventure across the US with my furry copilot, Precious. We hope to meet other dog lovers along our journey.☺️ I will care for your pets as I would my own. Making sure to fulfill their basic needs of Exercise, Discipline, and Affection, and going over and above to make sure your pets enjoy their own little staycation while you enjoy yours.

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

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Canton on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 922 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Canton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

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. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

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

  • 94% of sitters 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

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.
