About: I’ve been around dogs and taking of them since I was about 10. I’d regularly watch neighbors dogs as well as my own. I’ve never not been around a dog. I pride myself in providing the best care necessary to make sure every dog gets a pleasant experience with me. I know how to walk, feed, bathe, and take them out when they need to potty. I have plenty of time and availability to watch your fur baby. Anytime you need me, i can be there. I don’t have a busy schedule and I’d love to fill my time with dog sitting/walking. I can keep your doggie company anytime they need. Clingy or not, I’ll be there! I love walking dogs it’s great bonding time. I know how to properly listen and understand each request of how to take care of your fur baby. I can crate them if need be, walk them, take them outside for a potty break, and even play with them!

Savanah has been great with our three pups! She is confident, friendly, and reliable. She easily takes care of our elderly dog’s needs, as well as our higher energy/younger ones. Her communication is also excellent. I felt comfortable leaving my babies with her right away. We’re so glad we found her.

About: Hi! We’re an animal-loving family with room to roam and a whole lot of heart. We share our home with three wonderful dogs (a Pointer, a German Shepherd/Golden Retriever mix, and an Australian Shepherd) all 7 years and older, plus our cat, Potato. We’re very comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and species under one roof. Our dogs are mature, well-socialized, and help create a calm, balanced pack environment. We live on 2 acres with a securely fenced quarter-acre for safe, supervised outdoor play. There’s plenty of space for sniffing, structured exercise, and relaxing in the fresh air. My wife and I are almost always home, so your pet will receive consistent supervision, attention, and affection. We also have a sweet baby, Cooper, who is growing up learning to gently and respectfully love animals. Our home is calm, structured, and family-oriented. In addition to boarding, we also offer drop-in visits for pets who are happiest staying in their own home. Whether your pet needs potty breaks, feeding, walks, medication, or just some companionship and playtime, we’re happy to help. I’m currently a stay at home parent so my schedule is wide open for both days and nights to take on boarding or do visits to other homes. My home has a large fenced area where our three dogs can roam and exercise. I am very reliable and respectful when it comes to entering others’ homes while taking care of their pets.

My puppies are so happy and chill after their walks with Alexis. Alexis sends me the route, distance, and a pic. Pups like her so much they wait for her on her days off! So glad I did this for us.

About: I've been a dog lover and owner for more than 25 years and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. My first two dogs lived to be 16 years old, giving me firsthand experience with the patience, attention, and extra care senior dogs often need. Today, I share my life with Bailey Love, my 5½-year-old rescue pup and adventure buddy. We spend lots of time exploring the trails and woods around Asheville, and it's where he's happiest. Bailey is friendly, well-trained, and loves making new friends...both human and canine. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply curling up for a nap, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I treat every dog as family and will provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. Administering meds will be an additional $10-$20, depending on meds and frequency. ***For overnight stays, Bailey would be with me - he is great with cats; he has grown up in a house with 3+ cats and litters of kittens and pups.*** I own my own business and teach yoga, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. You'll often find me on the trails with my dog, Bailey Love, exploring the woods and soaking up nature. If your dog enjoys walks, hikes, sniffing every leaf, and outdoor adventures, we'll have a wonderful time together! For pets who prefer a slower pace, I'm equally happy providing cuddles, companionship, and calm care at home. 🐾💜 Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. If your pet stays in my home, they will be treated like family. While I do not have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised. Dogs can enjoy walks in my neighborhood, adventures on local trails, or relaxing time outside on a lead if they enjoy being outdoors. When caring for pets in your home, I will treat your space with the same respect and care I give my own. I understand the trust involved in welcoming someone into your home and caring for a beloved family member. For drop-in visits, I often have the flexibility to stay a little longer when schedules allow. As a business owner, I can sometimes bring my laptop and work from your home while spending extra time with your pet, offering additional companionship, playtime, cuddles, and comfort while you're away. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, loved, and as relaxed as possible until you're back home.

About: Hi! I’m a 19-year-old college student and lifelong animal lover. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was young. Friends, neighbors, and family regularly trust me to pet sit, walk, feed, and play with their pets. I have a 10-month-old mini long-haired dachshund named Tucker, so I understand puppy energy, training consistency, and daily routines. I’m very active and outgoing, and I love being outdoors, going on walks, and staying active, which makes me a great fit for energetic dogs! I’m responsible, dependable, and will treat your pet like my own. Whether your dog needs playtime, cuddles, exercise, or calm companionship, I’m happy to provide a safe and loving environment. I’m currently a college student with one in-person class on Thursdays and the rest of my coursework online, which gives me a flexible schedule. I also work part-time at Abercrombie & Fitch, but I plan my shifts in advance and have plenty of time throughout the week for pet care. I’m available for drop-ins, walks. Because I’m active and enjoy being outdoors, I love fitting walks and playtime into my daily routine! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep routines consistent, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and medication (if needed). I make sure pets are supervised, secure on walks, and comfortable in a clean, calm environment. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I treat every dog like my own and focus on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free experience.

About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for animals who need a little extra patience, attention, and understanding. I have experience working with older dogs and sick animals, which has taught me how important it is to pay attention to the little things and recognize when a pet may not be feeling their best. I understand that every animal has different needs, routines, and personalities, and I’m happy to adjust my care to make them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or older and needs a slower pace, I’ll treat them with the same care and compassion I would want for my own pets. Pet care fits easily into my schedule because I currently work only about 10 hours a week, giving me plenty of flexibility to dedicate time to your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and other care needs, and I can work with your pet’s routine and schedule. Having a flexible schedule also means I can give your pets the time, attention, and companionship they deserve rather than rushing through a visit. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping them comfortable by maintaining their normal routines as much as possible. I follow their feeding, medication, walking, and care instructions closely while giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I also treat every home with the same respect and care I would expect for my own, keeping things clean and secure. Most importantly, I communicate with owners throughout the stay and provide updates so they can feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away.

About: I’ve bred and raised Old English Sheepdogs in childhood and have been pet sitting and caring for dogs ever since! I have experience administering medications, and even raised a cared for a dog with epilepsy and other medical conditions. I have experience in basic dog training, and experience with a wide range of breeds and personalities. I offer multiple pet-care services and guarantee excellent care :) I work part time and have a flexible schedule. While my work load does change week to week, on weeks I have scheduled pet care services, it is my priority and my weekly focus. I have a fenced in yard, doggy-door to the yard, and a large apartment without personal-pets, but with an option to have play time with my family’s dog next door :) For care within the clients home I am happy to follow your preferred routine and can adjust my schedule to accommodate your pet’s needs. I can stay in-home for more involved care, or drop in for feedings, potty-breaks, and play time daily.

About: I grew up on a farm so I have taken care of nearly every kind of domesticated animal at every age, so nothing is too big or too small for me to handle! Today, I have 3 cats and 1 horse that keep me busy, but allow for lots of spare time to help others! I only work part time currently, so Thur-Sat from 10-3, so my schedule is pretty available! I am also very flexible when it comes to timing! I am very detail oriented and follow instructions to a T. The cat rescue i have worked with in the past said i am a "gold tier" cat parent. My cats at home are fed wet canned food with teeth treats twice a day and dried anchovies for omega 3's. They also have access to a rotation of toys that change every week. My dog, who i had for 15 years, went to a doggy daycare 2-3 times a week and we went on a walk everyday with lots and lots of sniff breaks! I also keep a camera in my home to keep an eye on all my pets! I believe in giving the same care to your pets as I do to mine!!

About: I have had pets my entire life and grew up on a small farm with dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, ducks, and even sometimes quail! I am currently a full-time mom of 1 human child and 3 of the four legged variety. I have cared for a variety of different dog breeds and temperament's. I’m very active and would love to get your dogs outside on walks, runs, or hikes. I have always treated our animals like part of the family and I will treat your pet with the same love, respect, and kindness that I give to my own. My rates reflect quality - but affordable - pet care. I send a lot of picture updates throughout the day in order to set your mind at ease - I know how hard it can be to leave your pet while you're away! I have a very flexible schedule since I am a stay at home mom! Just let me know your current needs and I can likely accommodate most schedules. I am currently not boarding or watching pets in my home, but I will make sure your pet is safe and comfortable in their own space. I offer to do long dog walks and play-time so that they go home tired at the end of the day!

I've recently retired as a Project Manager from the Department of Veterans Affairs after 34 years. I just became retired and so I have plenty of time to hang out, play and entertain your pets. Almost all dogs and cats love me. As a project manager with the VA for the last 25 years I've been in a position of high public trust requiring that I have a background check every 5 years.

Absolutely wonderful walker! I feel so blessed to have found Tina. She may not know it but she is an answer to my prayers! Very friendly and personable. Quick to respond. Very flexible and willing to work around my difficult schedule even on the weekends which is sometimes hard to find. Tina is a very likable person but most importantly my dog likes her too! I was so comfortable with my dog in her care I am using her again this week. Bonus: She took such amazing photos of my sweet boy they looked professional taken.

About: I am a teacher in Asheville looking to hang out with some lovely animals in my free time. Growing up I have always had animals but primarily dogs so I have a strong background in dog behaviors and needs. My fiancé, Ellen, is also available to support during the week days that wouldn’t be optimal for me to leave during my teaching days. This gives a lot more availability! She has always grown up with cats and dogs and would love to help support to give them the best care. Often we both come for meet and greets/visits to ensure we give the best care 😊 I look forward to care for your animal in anyway I can. Please let me know of any questions as I hope to be flexible with any needs. During the week I am gone roughly 8am-4pm but will be home during the weekend times. During the summer months I am available throughout the day times. My fiancé is a nurse and works 3 days out of the week. The schedule is flexible but sporadic. I love to get out for long walks and get as much movement as possible. If that’s for your animal I’d love to get them out! If not I am cautious about the animals typical areas and what works best for them.

Savanah was wonderful! She came over the day before to meet my dog and take our usual walk with us. Each visit, she let me know her bathroom and eating info. And she took tons of photos so I could see how my pup was doing! So grateful for her services, I would book her again in the future!

FAQs for Dog Walking - West Canton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in West Canton on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,013 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across West 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 West Canton. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in West Canton.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
