canvas text jitter animation

HTML

<canvas id="canvas1" width="500" height="300"></canvas>

CSS

#canvas1
{
  background-color: white
}

JavaScript

var canvas = document.getElementById("canvas1");
var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");

ctx.textAlign = "center";
ctx.textBaseline = "middle";
ctx.font = "bold 16px Helvetica";
ctx.shadowOffsetX = ctx.shadowOffsetY = 2;
ctx.shadowBlur = 6;

var bgColor="blue";
var textColor="white";
var shadowColor="rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4)";
var radius=15;

//Draw empty plate for the pin, no text on top
//Problem: NONE, movements are smooth
function drawPinPlate(x, y)
{
  var oldShadow = ctx.shadowColor;
  ctx.shadowColor = shadowColor;
  ctx.fillStyle = bgColor;
	ctx.beginPath();
  ctx.arc(x, y, radius, 0, 2*Math.PI);
  ctx.fill();
  ctx.shadowColor = oldShadow;
}

//method 1: Draw pin with text directly. 
//Draw text using canvas direct text rendering.
//Problem: Text vertical jittering while animating movement
function drawPin1(x, y, name)
{
	drawPinPlate(x, y);
  ctx.fillStyle = textColor;
  ctx.fillText(name, x, y);
}

//method 2: Draw pin with text using offscreen image with resize
//Draw text using text pre-rendered to offscreen canvas.
//Offscreen canvas is twice large than the original and we do resize (shrink) to the original one
//Problem: Text is sharp but some flickering appears during image movement
function drawPin2(x, y, name)
{
	drawPinPlate(x, y);
  ctx.drawImage(offImage1, x - radius, y - radius, radius*2, radius*2);
}

//method 2: Draw pin with text using offscreen image
//Draw text using text pre-rendered to offscreen canvas.
//Offscreen canvas is the same size as the original.
//Problem: Text is looking fuzzy, blurry
function drawPin3(x, y, name)
{
	drawPinPlate(x, y);
  ctx.drawImage(offImage2, x - radius, y - radius);
