“Jared stayed over night with our dog Moose. He was very communicative, sent constant picture updates and was also very flexible on timing. He made sure Moose was well taken care of. We will definitely use Jared for any future needs for Moose.”
“Yareisy was great!! She house sat my two cats for a long weekend and I would definitely book her again. She made sure to take pictures of everything, including cleaned litter boxes, tons of photos of my cats, and where she left the key at the end of the trip. I highly suggest booking her, your fur babies will be well taken care of!😊😊”
“Elissa is the BEST! My poor girl was very anxious and confused when she first came over, and she handled her so well. She was patient and loving, and I appreciated that she kept me informed. An added bonus- When I got home, the house was spotless and looked like I never left! Your fur babies will be in amazing hands with Elissa!”
“Tashani was literally the best -- she was super communicative and sent through daily updates about Libby & Cinder! We got back from a week-long trip to a clean house, happy animals, and a flourishing garden. We'll definitely work with Tashani for future trips!!”
“Erin did a great job taking care of our dog and house. Our dog was healthy and happy when we returned home and our house was exactly as we had left it. We hope Erin is available the next time we travel.”
“Angela was very patient and sent us a lot of pictures. Kept a good communication through out the time that I was away and had a positive attitude when dealing with my "not too friendly" dog.”
“Sarah was amazing with our fur babies. This was the first time we have left our 5 year old pup with someone other than family and she is a nervous Nelly. She warmed up to Sarah almost instantly and Sarah’s communication and pictures were wonderful throughout the weekend. I was able to enjoy myself and not worry about the pets. Sarah has really calm and gentle energy, so I knew at the meet and greet she was a great match!”

“Michelle did great for us. It was our first time with her and she took good care of our greyhound and the house. I would recommend her for house sitting to anyone in need of that service.”
About: Hi! I’m Meghan! Lifelong animal lover, experienced pet sitter, nurse, NP student, and very proud mom to a house full of four-legged chaos aka my “zoo”. 🐾 Animals have quite literally always been part of my life. I have 25+ years of experience caring for dogs and 18+ years caring for cats, and I’ve been pet sitting through Rover since my early college days. At home, I have four pets of my own: three cats and one dog, so I completely understand that our pets aren’t “just pets.” They’re family, and leaving them with someone else requires a whole lot of trust. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting, and I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, personalities, sizes, and energy levels… from wild little puppies who think everything is a snack to sweet senior pets who prefer a slower pace and some extra TLC. ❤️ As a registered nurse, I’m calm, dependable, detail-oriented, and very comfortable following specific care instructions. I can administer oral AND IM medications, accommodate special feeding routines, and provide attentive care for senior pets or animals who need a little extra patience and monitoring. My schedule is also a little different than your typical 9–5! I currently work about 24 hours per week as an ER nurse while also attending school, which gives me flexibility for daytime visits, odd hours, walks, and varying schedules. If your pet has a routine, I’ll do my best to keep it feeling as normal as possible while you’re away. And yes, I’m absolutely the sitter who will send you way too many pictures and updates. 😂📸 I want you to be able to enjoy your trip, workday, or time away knowing your babies are safe, happy, loved, and probably being spoiled. What you can expect from me: 🐶 25+ years of dog experience 🐱 18+ years of cat experience 🐾 10+ years Longtime Rover sitter 💊 Comfortable administering oral & IM medications 👵 Senior pet care 🍼 Puppy & kitten care 🦮 Dog walking & exercise 🏡 Drop-ins & house sitting ⏰ Flexible availability, including odd hours 📸 Plenty of photos and updates ❤️ Lots of patience, cuddles, playtime, and individualized attention Every animal has their own personality, routine, quirks, and favorite things and getting to know those little details is honestly one of my favorite parts of pet sitting. Whether your dog needs an adventure buddy, your cat needs someone to respectfully earn their approval from across the room, or your senior baby just needs a calm companion while you’re away, I’d love to be their new favorite sitter. 🐾❤️ I truly couldn’t imagine life without animals, and I’ll care for yours just like I do my own. I also promise to send you an obscene number of adorable photo updates, because let’s be honest, your pets are way too cute not to share. 🐶🐱💕 Pet care is truly built into the rhythm of my everyday life! I start each morning with breakfast for my crew. Everyone has their own food, routine, and needs (including medications), so I’m very used to managing individualized care. Dinner is served right at 5PM, and I take pride in keeping everything consistent and stress-free for them. My favorite part of the day? Cuddle time—whether we’re curled up on the couch or relaxing outside together, those moments are pure magic. For my dogs, daily walks and park trips are a must! We’re lucky to have a great open space nearby where they can run freely, sniff everything in sight, and just be dogs. Caring for pets isn’t a chore for me—it’s one of the most joyful, grounding parts of my day. Whether they have paws, whiskers, or wagging tails, they’re family. Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for pets, whether I’m stopping by for a quick visit, going on a walk, or staying overnight in your home. In your home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal and comforting as possible. I follow all care instructions to the letter, from feeding schedules and medications to favorite hiding spots and potty routines. I always double-check that doors are locked, gates are secure, and your pet is happy and safe before I leave. For walks, I use secure harnesses or collars, avoid high-traffic areas, and stay alert to your pet’s comfort level. No matter the service, I treat your home and your pets with the same respect and care I give my own. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment that your pet feels safe in—because when you’re away, they deserve to feel at home.
“Stacey was wonderful! She was so easy to communicate with ahead of watching our dog and was also super self sufficient around our house. There was a bad storm when she was scheduled to watch our dog and we live in a pretty remote area and she had zero complaints. She was fantastic all around!”
About: I have been a human to many dogs for the past 14 years including volunteering as a foster for three local organizations. I believe animals are a part of our family and should be treated with care and respect. I have trained puppies, cared for elderly dogs, injured dogs, and foster dogs. I have a particular skill in helping dogs get comfortable and acclimating to a new environment. I’m experienced in administering medication to pups and supporting animals who have separation anxiety. My partner and I both work from home and are available throughout the day and evening. We have two pups of our own so pet care is a part of our daily routine. I am typically up early with my puppy around 5:30AM and we begin our day with a nice morning walk. After a morning feeding, on a nice day, we sit outside and the dogs play while I work on the garden or have my morning coffee. My pups are fully integrated into my day and I divide my tasks for the day around their walk, play, and nap schedule. I seek to provide clients with what they need to ensure their comfort (the pets and their humans alike). I seek to understand your pets needs, routine, and your needs (i.e. updates, pictures, etc.) to ensure you feel secure with your pets care. I believe when I am hired to help care for your pup, we build a partnership that requires communication, understanding, and deep empathy. From caring for senior dogs to the messy puppy phase, I have had a breadth of experience in caring for pups.
About: You know that person animals just gravitate towards because they feel calm and safe? That’s me. A lifelong dog and cat owner, I've also fostered kittens and puppies for 10 yrs through the Animal Rescue League in Boston. I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and ages. I have a Great Pyrenees mix and used to have a Bernese, and was a longtime foster of a pair of chihuahua mixes. I've bottle-fed kittens, and given senior pets their meds (and slow walks). I’m an active mom of 5 grown human kids, so patience is my middle name. Professionally, I’m a work-from-home journalist (higher ed, travel) and happy to work from yours if your animal wants more companionship than just a drop-in visit. See photos of kittens, puppies and bunnies serving as editorial muse beside my laptop. I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule, can do drop in visits or even work from your home for the day while hanging out with your pet(s). Let's talk about your needs! Animals know the people they can trust -- they might be entertained by pizzaz, but they sidle up against the calm, patient, consistent presence. That's me. I'm a mom of 5 nearly-grown children, so I understand order and systems, and will be a quick learner of yours.
About: I have been watching animals since I was 12 years old. Taking the neighbors pets for a walk, feeding them, or just checking in on them. I also have my Animal Control License and have been an ACO for 2 years now. I love it. I have a passion for animals and will do anything to make sure your fur babies are well kept and safe. I do work full time during the day M-F so midday check-ins are a little hard but morning and nighttime services are always easy for me to accomplish! I typically watch the animals in their own home just so they can stay within their routine. I never want to make the owner or animal feel uncomfortable ever.
“Emily was able to help us last minute to care for Amber after her surgery. She sent us messages and photos and when something was not right she immediately let me know and even helped me get her in the car. We truly appreciate her attention and care for Amber.”

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred North Canton walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in North Canton maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 North 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!

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 .
