Ashleigh & Jacob were fabulous with my cat and gave her lots of attention! I was a little nervous about leaving her but shouldn’t have been because Smoki was obviously looking happy in the photos received through Rover. Smoki was very well taken care of. I’ll definitely book with them again!!!!

About: Hi! I'm Mackenzie, a passionate animal lover with dog and cat experience. I have worked professionally with dogs at a doggy daycare, as well as cared for my family’s much-loved special needs labrador for many years. I’m also a cat parent and I have experience watching other people’s cats since I was young. I love all pets, large or small, old or young, and I’d be honored to spend time with yours! I work from home most days so I have lots of flexibility with my schedule. I’m typically unavailable Tuesdays from 2-4pm. I try my best to keep my calendar updated. Feel free to ask if you have any questions! I’m meticulous with instructions, and will be sure to follow your pet’s routines so they feel as at ease as possible while you’re away. I want you to feel at ease as well so I always make sure to have a safety plan in case of emergency.

About: I have always loved dogs and enjoy caring for them like they are my own. I love taking dogs on walks, letting them explore, sniff around, and enjoy their time outside without being rushed. For dogs with extra energy, I’m also happy to help them exercise with a run. I’m patient, dependable, and always make sure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I am a graduate student at the University of Arkansas, which gives me some flexibility in my schedule. I can make accommodations for walks, drop-ins, and pet care depending on your pet’s needs. I’m happy to communicate ahead of time so we can make sure the schedule works well. I have a small fenced yard where dogs can play and get some fresh air under supervision. I also live right next to the Greenway trail, which is great for long walks, exercise, and letting dogs explore safely. I always make sure pets are watched closely, comfortable, and cared for based on their owner’s instructions.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and have always been the go-to pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from small chihuahuas to large golden retrievers, and I understand how to tailor care. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and genuinely love spending time with animals—whether it’s going for walks, giving meds, or just keeping them company. What sets me apart is my reliability, calm presence, and flexible schedule as a college student home for the summer. I treat every pet like my own and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for morning and evening visits, as well as overnight stays if needed. Since I’m not juggling a full-time job, I can give your pet consistent attention and stick closely to their routine. Whether it’s daily check-ins, walks, feeding, or playtime, I can easily build my day around your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their routine, comfort, and safety above all. I take time to understand your pet’s preferences and any special instructions so I can provide care that’s consistent and stress-free. I always double-check doors, gates, and food instructions to ensure everything is secure and safe. I respect your home, keep things clean, and make sure your pet feels loved and at ease in their familiar environment. I also believe in clear communication; I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and at peace while you’re away.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was little and have always had a huge love for pets. I grew up helping feed, water, and care for animals while making sure they were always happy, safe, and well cared for. I also have my own dog, Charlie Brown, who absolutely loves cuddles and treats, so I understand how important it is to treat every pet like family. I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter in my home town where I helped clean kennels, feed animals, spend time playing with them, and help make sure they felt loved while waiting to find their forever homes. I’m passionate about giving pets the attention, comfort, and care they deserve. 🐾 I currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for and spend quality time with your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week and weekends. I’ll make sure your pets get lots of attention, playtime, cuddles, and care while you’re away. 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure pets are supervised, well cared for, and feel safe in their environment. I’ll follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, or special care requests to make sure your pet feels comfortable and loved. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family — with lots of patience, affection, and attention.

She was so kind and calm with him, and really paid attention to and respected how he might be feeling. She‘a also extremely professional, friendly, and knowledgeable!

About: I’ve grown up alongside dogs and other animals and helped take care of them since I was young. When I was sixteen, my family adopted our puppy Sal at eight weeks old, and it was my responsibility to take care of him, train him, and love on him. From there, I volunteered at Almost Home animal shelter in Van Buren for two years, where I walked dogs of all sizes and weights, played with them, fed and cared for them, and cleaned out their kennels and bowls. As of now, I’m living away from my family dog since I’m in college, but I’m helping a friend of mine walk and train her newly adopted Cane Corso (she’s a sweetie). I’ve watched dogs for friends and family all through the years, as well. As far as cats go, I’ve loved them since I was a kid, and I adopted one two years ago! His name is Walter, he’s a tabby and the sweetest boy alive, and I love taking care of him, even if he shreds my arms sometimes. Pets need love and patience, and that’s exactly what I have for them. :) I’m currently out of college classes for the summer, so my schedule is very flexible! I can work with any requests you send me, so long as we have ample time to discuss everything you’re looking for. I can easily adapt to your pet’s regular schedule, including mealtimes, bedtime, medication, if they need to be crated, playtimes, etc. The comfort and happiness of your pet is my first focus.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was 10. Mine have been raised being treated like little humans and I cant wait to treat yours the exact same. I have cared for special needs dogs, puppies, and seniors. I have a special place in my heart for animals, and absolutely understand the want for a sitter that will love on your babies as much as you do! I am currently available almost all day everyday, and most weekends. On the occasion that I have errands to run, I am more than happy to take your love bug with me if they don’t like to stay home alone! I have two fur babies for your pets to hangout with (if he/she does good with other dogs)!One is big, one is small, and they are both inside dogs! We take them outside to play ball through the day and on plenty of walks! I have a fenced yard and walking paths all through my neighborhood! My parents live close, and my dogs love them just as much, so if your pets prefer to be by themselves that’s totally doable!! I’m pretty flexible, so I can give them as much or as little exercise as needed! If you’d prefer me be at your home, that’s perfectly fine as well!

About: I worked at a dog daycare for over a year where I gained a lot of experience regarding proper dog handling, body language, common illnesses/problems, etc. Pet care has been a part of my daily routine my whole life, so it is a natural part of my day and weekly schedule. I am attentive to everything they do, including monitoring their food and water intake, their bathroom trips, their overall disposition and behavior throughout the day. During walks, I am especially keen on their body language to gauge their energy levels and potential reactive triggers.

About: I work from home most days of the week, so your dog or cat would have a buddy throughout the day! I have experience with all breeds, sizes, and ages of dogs. My own dog takes medications and so I am very familiar with giving medications and watching for any medical distress. I have one cat, so dogs must be good with cats/small animals. My dog, Pippin, loves to play and we go on multiple off leash walks throughout the day. I love animals and will love your pets like they are mine! My dog, Pippin, has separation anxiety so I understand how to comfort and care for dogs that get a little nervous without their owner. I worked in a veterinary clinic with dogs and cat. I am comfortable handling dogs of all sorts of sizes and ages and am relaxed and intuitive in possible stressful situations. I am very gentle with animals and believe positive reinforcement is the way to go to get the best results and to form a fun and trusting relationship. I am active and would love to take your high energy dogs out for a long run or hike in the area. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work full-time, primarily from home. I have time to take walks any time through out the day and currently take my own dog on 2-3 walks a day, with a hike every other day. I have a very friendly dog who loves to play and relax. I take him on hikes and walks daily. I also have a dog-savvy cat.

About: I have grown up with pets my entire life and have worked in multiple different animal industries. This list includes veterinary medicine for 3 years, volunteering for a rescue organization, and handling/ caring for 20+ sled dogs in Alaska. I often sit for my family and friends dogs whenever they travel. I am currently in school at the University of Arkansas but I am only taking classes Tuesday and Thursday. This leaves me free Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and the weekends to walk your pets or come hang out with them for a few hours. I currently live in a townhome so I will not be sitting at my house but I am able to care for your pet in whatever way they are used to.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Farmington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Farmington on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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

As of July 2026, there are 908 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Farmington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Farmington 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 Farmington 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 Farmington with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Farmington. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.

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.
