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 had dogs growing up, five of them being German shepherds and the other four being a lab and two mutts and a dachshund, and we've had tons of cats. We currently have two German shepherds and I walk them a ton and I spend a lot of time taking care of them, and then we have a dachshund who I just rescued from the place I work at. The place I worked at does dog boarding/daycare/training. I was a kennel tech so I just took care of all the boarding and daycare doggies. And on the weekends I also took care of all the training dogs when/if the trainers were away. I worked there for over year and loved it, only leaving because I started college and moved away. I have had to deal with so many different dogs and their personalities and I've definitely learned to have a ton of patience with the job. I have been working in general since I was 14. I started at some neighbouring farms, doing farm work so I could ride their horses and earn some money. I then did a couple restaurant jobs and then found the place I currently work at. I have done dog sitting and cat sitting before many times, sometimes for family or friends of family who I don't know but I am happy to help out. The most I have dealt with at one time was seven dogs in total. I have watched people's dogs get trained while at work and I have been trained to use an e-collar and a prong collar so I am able to use those correctly! I really loves my job, it means a lot to me I get to be in that environment and I'm depended on to keep them all safe and happy. And I am a second year student at Muskingum University, I am majoring in Animal Studies in hopes of having an animal conservation related job. I'm a college student and normally drop in between classes and have the rest of the day to tend to pet's. During the summer I am usually employed and work around my schedule At home I spend time walking the dogs mostly and hanging around the house with them. Every client I feel is different in how things are done at their home, so however you take care of your pets I'll follow

About: I’ve been around dogs since I could walk, and I know that every pup has their own unique personality and pace. I’ve had my own dog, Paloma, for five years now, so I’m well-versed in the routine and the responsibility. Whether your dog wants a high-energy trek or just a slow sniff around the block, I’m happy to follow their lead. I’ve got a flexible schedule and a very relaxed approach—I’m just here to make sure your dog has a great, stress-free time while you’re busy. I’m currently in a bit of a transitional period with my schedule, which means I have a lot of flexibility to prioritize your dog's needs. Whether it’s mid-day check-ins, afternoon walks, or weekend sitting, I can easily work around your timing. I'm usually around and available to provide consistent care and plenty of attention throughout the week. I’m new to the Ohio area, and am taking my own pup out to explore. I’ll use these experiences to take your pet to fun spaces that they’ll enjoy!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 769 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across East 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 East 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 , 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 East 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 , 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 .

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

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
