About: I have always been that guy on the street asking to pet your dog. I love my 2 year old Doxin mutt, and I am ready to share a bit of that love with other dogs. I am available most week days and considering my dog has gone for 10 mile walks, I can handle a solid walk with yours! I have played sports all my life and love to be outdoors. I have worked as a manager for the last 4 years of my life and I am looking to do something that makes me happy and if dogs do not make you happy then I am really unsure of what possibly can. I will take all the photos you would like of your puppy when I am with them since I would love them to put a smile on your face as they do mine. I work mostly evenings but my young daughter and I are free and together most of the days while my wife is at work. So the two of us love to go on adventures to go walk pooches or just be outside. We are mostly free mornings and middays however, since I am off Sunday Monday those days we are free for anything. I want to make dogs feel welcome in my home so I will do whatever they need to be comfortable between walks and playing or relaxing. We have lots of beds and rugs and sunny spots and we all love getting out of the house to be active. Every single dog is different but most all them love some good scratches.
“EC was amazing! Super friendly and my dog clearly had the best time. I got updates and photos, and it really felt like my pup was in great hands. Totally stress-free experience — I would 100% book again.”
About: Hello, my name is James! I don't remember a time where I did not live with a dog around the house. My first dog was a Nova Scotia duck tolling retriever, “duck toller for short”. named Trouble. He loved to guard around house and bark into the darkness. My current dogs are a pair of tiny Australian terriers named Chaos and Nemesis. They love to chase the wildlife in our forest, but are always down for pets in snuggling up. Given my experience growing up with dogs I hope that I can get to know your canine friends and spend more of my time with the creatures I love. Whether its a quick check in, a dog walk, or few hours of pet/housesitting ; I have plenty of time in my schedule to make for pet care. I will always try and treat the pets I am taking take of with as much love as their owners share with them. Plus a few extra treats.
About: I work as a part time veterinary technician, very confident in giving medications. Will stay at your home with your pets to help them be as comfortable as possible and stay on routine while their owners are away. Love taking them for walks and hikes and make sure we have plenty of play time together! I would love to meet your fur-babies and help you be able to relax and enjoy your time away. I send updates and pictures so owners know their babies are enjoying their time too! I currently work part time as a veterinary technician, my shifts are between 5-7 hours Monday through Friday. Can do potty breaks during the longer shifts if needed. I stay in your house with your pets so they are comfortable in their own environment and follow their regular routine as much as possible. Plenty of time for exercise and play!
About: I have been a cat owner since i was 10, and adore all animals! I volunteered at the MSPCA, where I adopted our family cat who lived to be 18, and took care of dogs of all ages and sizes-puppies too! I work remotely, and part time right now, so I can easily add pet care to my routine. I am looking forward to spending more time with furry friends! I am careful to follow any special instructions for your pet, as well as ensure any outside spaces are secure if your pup has one for playtime
“Anindita was great with our dog; she gave him good exercise, got his meds on time, and took pics of him to let us know he was okay. He loved his time with her. Thank tou!”
About: My love for pets started 13 years ago when I got my first Samoyed during my freshman year of college. The following year, I welcomed a Husky into my apartment. After graduating, I became a cat owner as well and have cared for three cats over the years. Having lived with both dogs and cats for so long, I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and daily routines. I’ll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and attention I give my own. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m home most of the day aside from going to the gym. This gives me plenty of time to care for, play with, and spend time with your pets throughout the day. I have a spacious home with a large yard where dogs have plenty of room to relax and play. Depending on your dog’s preferences and routine, they can spend most of their time comfortably indoors or enjoy more time outside in the yard. I’ll always follow your care instructions and make sure they feel safe and comfortable.
“I’m a travel nurse so I work really long hours. Katie came and sat with my girl a little bit each day I was at work and went above and beyond to take care of my girl!! If I’m ever in her area again I will so be using her again to take care of Willow. She truly loved my dog and my dog loved her. At one point I flew home and my sitter called was I landed and unable to care for Willow. Katie stepped up and made a very stressful situation bearable!! She is amazing and I 10/10 recommend her to anyone!”
“Claudia has been great w our new puppy (10 weeks old) sending photos!!! She lets herself in and out of the house no problem ... excited to keep using her as an on going dog walker !!!”
“Julia did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats. She was incredibly thoughtful, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure the cats (and our home!) were comfortable and clean. She took initiative to adjust the A/C and fans to keep the space comfortable, cleaned up not just the food dishes and litter boxes, but also a surprise hairball, and even swept the floor. Her updates were thorough and reassuring, with sweet touches like hiding toys and checking in on how much each cat ate—she clearly paid close attention to their individual personalities and needs. Julia was communicative, responsible, and kind—and her love for cats really shows. I'm so grateful this was our first experience with her and would absolutely recommend her to others!”
About: I have my own golden doodle named Ollie who I have learned to take care of ever since I was eight years old. I love to walk, feed, bathe, and have fun with pets! I’m currently working part time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule! I have my own reliable transportation and am willing to travel to meet your pets! I am comfortable working with pets of all sizes. I can feed and provide comfort to pets. I hope to provide the best and most safe care I can!
“Tanya has done drop in visits/walks for my puppy Numerous times and is super reliable and professional. Her updates are great and make me feel at ease when I am out of the house all day. Would recommend to anyone seeking a dog sitter!”
“Daniel was an excellent drop-in visitor and playmate for our cat Georgie. We really appreciated his friendliness, prompt communication, and genuine affection for our cat. Bonus points for his availability short notice during holiday season as well! We’d definitely recommend Daniel.”
About: I’ve been in the animal care field since 2022 and have done a little bit of just about everything! Food and Supply sales, assistant grooming, dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits. In addition, I'm currently pursuing my associate's degree in animal care and have a wonderful 1-year-old lab/pitbull mix named Judy! I’m currently working part time as a dog walker, so my availability will be weekdays after 4PM until 10PM, and 8AM to 6PM on weekends (weekend sittings are available for full days on Sat/Sun) My yard unfortunately isn’t fenced in, so I always make sure my dogs are leashed and are wearing their collars with AirTags just in case. I don’t board dogs at my house due to the yard having no fence. When walking other dogs I always double clip their leash to their harness and collar.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Stow is $25
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Stow
Allyson was top notch! Our younger dog immediately warmed up to her when she visited before our trip, which is a rarity for our younger dog. We knew right then our dogs would be in great, caring hands for the week we were away. Our older dog has daily medicine he takes orally and Allyson was comfortable giving it to him. Allyson was reliable, a great communicator, and went above and beyond her responsibilities. Allyson has a warm, caring personality and was sensitive to our dogs' needs. We will definitely have her care for our dogs again!

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 Stow 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.
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 Stow 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!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Stow with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
