About: I’m available for round-the-clock care this summer! I am a music teacher during the school year but I love taking care of animals as well. I can care for any type of animal, I’m always down to learn about new and interesting pets too! I’m available almost 24/7 this summer since I’m a teacher and have summers off. I’m hoping to get plenty of walks in not only for the animals but also myself! I am able to provide consistent care around the clock if needed. I can follow directions for feeding, medication administration, and bathroom needs. I love walking dogs and hanging out with cats!
About: I am a caring and dependable dog walker with a genuine love and respect for animals. I currently walk two dogs Tuesday through Friday and have built a strong bond with them. One was shy and barked at me at first, but now happily runs up to greet me—an experience I truly value. I also volunteer at the Humane Society animal shelter, where I help feed cats, clean their cages, and walk dogs. At times, my responsible and gentle 14-year-old son assists me on walks, offering extra attention and care to the dogs. As a tutor and substitute teacher with a flexible schedule and summers off, I’m able to provide consistent, reliable care. My priority is making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My flexible schedule as a tutor and substitute teacher allows me free time to do pet sitting and dog walking. I tend to walk dogs between 8am to 11am and then do my substitute teaching job between 11:45 to 3:15pm and after that will walk a dog as needed. During the summer time Im free all day for walks and for house sitting. I will make sure to follow any instructions or recommendations from the client concerning the well being of their pet. I typically give the dog daily exercise 4 to 7 times per day. With the owner permission I will take dog to the dog park and keep a watchful eye on the dog at all times there. If I feel another dog is getting aggressive I will immediately remove the dog so nothing escalates.
“Samantha was very responsive, easy to work with, and made the whole experience stress free. I felt completely comfortable having her check on my dog. Looking forward to booking her again!”
“I highly recommend Tara as a pet sitter. She watched my 4 cats over the holidays. She provided excellent care, ensuring they were fed, played with, and received the attention they needed. She also gave our oldest kitty medication during her visits. Tara's reliability and genuine love for animals make her the perfect choice for anyone seeking a trustworthy sitter!”
About: I have taken care of the pets for family and friends for years, with many over night stays with them. Animals tend to be drawn to me and I can never get enough of the unconditional love that they provide! I am great with requests for the special care of your special furry family members! I work at a school, so we are currently in summer and I am off of work at 2 ever day of the week, but also available at night for any possible over night needs! I will not be taking animals to my home, as I have a roommate who has cats and they do not do well with other animals.
About: I've been a dog owner myself and have cared for dogs for friends and family, so I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and loved. I'm currently working full time. I will be available for walks and check-ins primarily after work and on weekends. I could also possibly be available on my lunch breaks. When caring for your pets in your home or on walks, I will keep their environment clean, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I will treat your home with respect and keep you updated.
“Katarina is the best with our kitties! She has watched them a handful of times over the past two years! I love the photos and check-in notes she sends each visit. I know they are in safe hands!”
About: I’ve always lived around animals while growing up, ever since I was a baby. I’ve always loved playing with animals and taking care of them I volunteer at one of a kind pets. I’ve always taken care of my animals since I was little. I would always take my pets on walks, feed them, play with them, take them to parks, etc. Another thing while growing up I used to always go to the library and read to dogs there, it was an event. Every once and a while I go to the animal shelter and spend time with cats and dogs giving them company. I am in college right now we can talk about when I have classes and when would be best times for me to do drop ins, walks, whatever you need! I feed my dog 3 times a day I understand that varies from the dog and let I him out time to time, we have a electric fence so it’s easier to let him out when he wants, but I have no problem taking dogs out on leashes. Also if your dog is would like company, I could bring mine!
About: Hi! I’m Natalie—an experienced and compassionate pet sitter and dog walker. I’ve grown up around animals of all kinds and have over five years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve provided pet care for neighbors, friends, family, and Rover clients, with three years of experience specifically through Rover. I’m comfortable caring for senior pets and those with special needs, including dogs with back leg paralysis, and I always prioritize following owner instructions while paying close attention to each pet’s comfort cues. I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, respect, and plenty of love. I began pet sitting in college as a side gig and quickly discovered how much I loved it. Since graduating, I’ve been working full-time, but caring for animals remains a true passion of mine, and I would be honored to care for your furry family member. Let me know how I can help—I can’t wait to meet your furbaby! I do work full-time, but if you’re located in or around Akron, I’m able to provide mid-day potty breaks and can work from home one day a week, allowing for extra time and flexibility with your pet. I will always ask for and follow the instructions left by the owner. I will act professional and courteous while picking up dogs for walks or pet sitting within the residence. Most importantly, I am adaptable to any animals needs.
“Anna was great with my pup! She had never been cared for by anyone and was very afraid. Anna was very patient with her and made her feel comfortable. Would definitely book her again!!”
“Matthew is awesome! He was on-time, communicative, friendly, and was great with my puppies. I see why he has the title, "Star-Sitter". I'm very happy to have hired Matt!”

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.

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 .

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.
