“Aly has been amazing with my two pups Teddy and Blaze! They absolutely adore her, and she does a wonderful job of leaving me fantastic visit updates (I love all the photos mid day while I’m away at work). Aly has also been great and super understanding with a few last minute schedule changes on my end. She’s awesome, and so lucky my pups have her to take care of them and check in throughout the week. 🙂”

“Carlie is AWESOME, I would highly recommend her! She will go above and beyond for your pets. Carlie checked in on our kittens while we were on vacation and not only did a great job taking care of and playing with them, her updates and photos made us feel confident they were doing okay without us. She went above and beyond: not only cleaning their litter boxes but cleaning up litter that had spilled out of them and even fixing our small Christmas tree when the cats knocked it over. She even went back one time after she had already checked in on them because I was concerned by one of the photos that maybe a cats collar was too tight.”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life! I have 3 dogs and 1 cat that I’ve been taking care of since I was little. I’ve also been volunteering at an animal shelter for the last 3 years to help care for and socialize dogs and cats of all ages and sizes! I’m currently a student at the University of Arkansas, so I have plenty of time between classes for check ins, house sitting, and walks for your pet! Unfortunately my apartment doesn’t allow animals but I am able to take care of pets in your home. I’m willing to stay overnight or stop by a few times a day to give your pets some company or to play with them outside! I love hiking and going for walks around this area so I would love to be able to bring your dogs or cats along!

“Amazing! Left us detailed notes every day on how our babies were doing. Took really good care of them while we were away, and kept the house tidy while we were gone. Cynthia was also super flexible when our travel plans changed. I’d absolutely rebook her and I’d absolutely recommend her without hesitation.”

About: I will take care of your pets like my own. I've taken care of dogs with dietary issues, hip/spine injuries, infections and open wound care, drainage, post-surgical care. I feel comfortable administring medications and cleaning/dressing wounds (ears eyes paws and mouth included) as prescribed by Vet. I've taken care of seniors and puppies, various sizes 15-180lb, various breeds. I have handled all personalities - sweet, outgoing, too friendly, curious, anxious, escape artists, reactive and aggressive pups. I looove BIG PAWS! XXL dogs are my favorite! I can teach some basic training commands and work on leash reactivity and pulling. I would like to do a meet and greet with you and your pet(s) for 10 minutes before scheduling care (this familiarity will help your pet feel at ease, instead of a total stranger trying to walk them or enter their home). I can room/board established nonreactive clients (must be ok with small animals and kids) on a case by case basis. I unfortunately cannot care for cats due to severe allergies/asthma. (But will gladly pet them while holding my breath!) Unrelated, but I can also water and prune your plants. Whatever you need, I'll make it work. I'm free on weekends, m/w/f, and mornings+evenings on t/th. I will consider boarding non-reactive non-feline animals, must be discussed in advance. I start the day with a scrubbed clean water bowl. Then we can play with toys, throw ball, go outside on a slow stroll, walk, or run, all depending on the pet's needs. Your pets will get to enjoy outside time, sniff as much as they please. If your dog's recall is reliable, I can discuss off-leash time, but only with consent, and only after the dog is an established client. If you are comfortable with it, I will drive them to nearby wooded parks so they can sniff to their heart's content. Whatever your pet needs and wants, is what I will provide. I will care for them like I do for mine.

About: I have always had pets growing up and my love for them has only grown. I enjoy learning and understanding animals and take caring for them very seriously. I am available everyday and work morning hours Thursday - Sunday. I am a morning person and wake up around 7 am everyday regardless if I am working or not. I care for all animals as if they are my own. I’ve been around animals my entire life and understand when they need something or are trying to convey a need or want.

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 grew up with 14 animals from horses and chickens to cats, dogs, and lizards. I am comfortable with all shapes and sizes of dogs and have a 120# Great Pyr mix who is my best friend! Dude is incredibly friendly and also loves all dogs and loves to have a friend to play with. Whether you have an active/energetic or a chill dog, I will give your dog the attention it needs. We will go on daily walks and may even take field trips to go on hikes or to public spaces like breweries for some socialization if you’re okay with that. If you are in the middle of training your pup, I will make sure to enforce whatever you need to maintain consistency. I work full time and I am usually out of the house from 7:30-5pm. Either before or after work I like to go on a walk and depending on the time of year I like to work on projects in and around my house. On top of work, I am also in a MBA program at the UofA, so my nights will be mostly studying and hanging with the pups. While I am home, the dogs are free to roam and have full access to a 0.5acre fenced in backyard. I have a fenced in backyard and a super friendly (gigantic) puppy, Dude. Your dog will get lots of affection and attention from both me and Dude. Whatever your requests are for taking care of your pup, I am on board! I can also send daily updates of their adventures throughout their stay.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was born. Taking care of them has been one of the greatest privileges I’ve had. I am always helping out and trying to train them! I also love taking care of my friend's pets as well. My dog is currently 11, so I’m comfortable with senior dogs as well. I have a part time job, so I have a lot of free time! I usually have mornings, afternoons, and evenings where I can work around my schedule. I have a very safe environment for my pets at home. I am able to follow any instructions or special accommodations your pets may need! I am willing to walk, play, feed, and give your pets all the love and care they want and need!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Farmington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Farmington is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $26 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 910 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Farmington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
