“Mikayla did a great job caring for our pups overnight. She even kept up with their medicine regime and reminded me when pills were out. I appreciated that she left our place clean and was respectful. Would definitely reach out again.”
“Ashley was amazing! She notified us and sent a picture of our pups soon after she arrived. She kept us updated by emails and photos throughout her stay. Because our return was tentative because of driving back from a wedding, she stopped by in the afternoon to let the pups out prior to our return. I highly recommend her and will be using her again!”
“This is the first time that I used Rover to find a puppy sitter to stay at my home. I was very nervous about leaving my Yorkie puppy with someone other than family, but Briana did a tremendous job with her. She spent the entire weekend with Maya, and sent me updates each day which included photos of my girl. My biggest concern was that Maya wouldn't be able to sleep at night without her family there. Briana worked some kind of magic, because Maya slept all night long with her on the couch without crying. I highly recommend Briana for house sitting or puppy sitting, and she will definitely be the first person I reach out to when my family has to go out of town again.”
“Hannah was awesome! It was so nice being able to leave our dog at our home vs boarding. He was very well cared for and was his happy typical self when we got home. We’d definitely request Hannah’s pet sitting again!”
“Billie just watched my dog for two days and again I am blown away with her service. She went above and beyond to make sure he was happy active and attended to. Absolutely the best so happy to work with her.”
“Melissa took great care of our very emotionally needy dog while we were away for two weeks. He was very comfortable in her care, and she gave him lots of attention and love!”
“Absolutely amazing, such a sweetheart and very communicative, took amazing care of my baby boys and did it last minute for me which I appreciate so much. She is so amazing and genuinely cares for the pups. House was clean, pups were happy, and they were fed 🤍🤍”
“Haylee was amazing ! Provided excellent service kept me updated the whole time and always checked in with me and sent me pictures. I will most definitely be booking again with her.”
“We loved having Sarah care for Clyde. We came home from an extended trip to a happy and well cared for pup! 🐶 💕 We look forward to having her back to help in the future.”
“Kevin is a super nice guy. I am so glad we have him in our dogs lives and ours. I will take him anytime. He did a great job with our pups. They seem very happy.”
“Amanda was exceptional—she was patient with my quirky dog, provided regular updates, and looked after my house as well as my pup. I’d definitely recommend her services and look forward to booking with her again!”
“Christina was amazing. Words can't express how lucky we were to find her a few days ago for a ridiculously last minute ask. She was responsive, asked questions when needed and followed the directions left for her. 1000% recommend. You won't be disappointed.”
“This was my first time booking Leann for house sitting while we were on vacation, and I am so glad that we did. My little girl, Lilah, loved her. Lilah became Leann’s shadow, following her around, sitting next to her on the couch, and sleeping next to her at night. Leann took her out for plenty of walks and spent a lot of time throwing the ball to her in the backyard. Leann provided daily updates and pictures. She cleaned up all of Lilah’s dishes, and my house was cleaner then when I left (my dog is a shedder and her hair every where). The biggest surprise was that Leann had taken photos of Lilah and had them printed so I have so many cute photos of Lilah to put into frames. I cannot tell you how much I appreciated the care and love that she gave to Lilah while we were on vacation. It is nice to go away and know that your furbaby is being well cared for.”
“We are SO glad we found Tyler… couldn’t be happier! He stayed with our sometimes over reactive dog for a week and it went well . Tyler is very attentive and kind. Sent updates and could easily be reached. Kept house clean and neat. Was great before our trip coming over to let our dog get used to him. So appreciated… will definitely use him again! Feel like we can go away and our dog is in caring hands. Thanks Tyler!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Farmdale
Brooke is trustworthy and kind! I’ve known her for over 20 years and didn’t hesitate to book her to watch our dog while we were away. During her stay, she had to pivot multiple times due to severe storms and our power being out. She kept us on the loop the entire time while making decisions needed to keep our dog and herself safe. Bailey, our dog, was sad to see her go when we got home!
We had a fantastic experience with Mary! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and we loved receiving regular updates and photos. Our dogs were clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. It was such a relief knowing our pups were in great hands. We will absolutely book again and highly recommend Mary to anyone on Rover looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter.
I can’t thank and recommend Kathy and her husband enough! We are new to the area and to the rover experience, so it’s always a relief knowing you have someone you can trust with your fur babies. This was our first long trip with rover, while being away from our girls. We received daily updates and pictures, which was such a relief. If you need someone to housesit your pets I highly Kathy and her husband. We had no issues, our dogs were in such good hands, and we will most definitely be using them again!!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Farmdale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Farmdale on Rover is $76.7 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,125 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Farmdale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Farmdale 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 Farmdale 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.
Tip: 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 Farmdale 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!
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 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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Farmdale. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
