About: I have always grown up with a variety of pets. Whether is a fish, dog, snake, or turtle. There were at least 2 dogs in my house at all times. My family is for sure a dog family in which it inspired me at one point to look to become a vet since I love animals so much. I am the type to stop someone in the street just to pet their dog because it makes me so happy! I’m a full time college student that is in a sorority. Pet care fits into my early mornings or later afternoon! Weekends are also flexible. I will make sure requirements are up to par! If there’s medications, certain foods, eating times, potty breaks, all will be checked off! And of course, spending time and playing will be a no brainer.
About: I have cared for pets, including my own, for more than five years. I understand that pets are part of the family and deserve love, patience, and attentive care. I keep a clean, organized environment and stick to a consistent schedule for feeding, potty breaks, and exercise. I follow instructions carefully and use good judgment when something unexpected comes up. I'm also comfortable giving medication, keeping a close eye on behavior and appetite, and sending regular updates so owners know their pets are safe and happy! I work a hybrid schedule with spending most of the time at home. Pets have plenty of space to relax and play. Toys are welcomed! I have a fenced back yard with security camareras including a lot of shade from the trees. Inside there is plenty of room as well. I can dog crate at your request.

As long as you are comfortable, we can play at the park and go for as many walks as the dog cares to! (Natural home, no crazy toxins that’ll harm sweet dogs!) I am an avid volunteer and 16 hour student but my schedule is Tu&Thrusday for school; which leaves more than enough time for your sweet dogs! Even on those days, I am usually home around 6PM or even sooner! Single bedroom apartment, reliable car, CLEAN home! For my family it is important for our dogs to be in a calm, relaxing, and nurturing environment that encourages play. Now that I live on my own, my apartment is exactly that!!!! If there are any preferences for your dogs, let me know so I can make them feel at home! (Perks of me living alone : they can roam the entire apartment, dogs get dibs to lay on ALL the soft furniture, and no extra people that YOU don’t approve to be around your dog!)
About: Hi I'm Jessica! I am currently a senior at the University of Arkansas majoring in psychology. I have been a lifelong dog lover. So much so that some of my favorite movies growing up were the Air Buddies series! I grew up with a dog, so caring for pets has always been a part of my life. Since sophomore year of high school, I've pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors, giving me experience with pets of different sizes, personalities, and routines. I know every dog is unique, and love getting to know what makes each one happiest. I am always up for an adventure, whether that is long walks, playing fetch, or relaxing with plenty of cuddles. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I'm dependable, patient, and will treat your pet(s) like they're my own. You can also count on regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands. I cannot wait to meet you and your pet(s)! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I know every pet has their own routine, so I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding instructions, exercise needs, medications (if needed), and any other preferences to help them feel as comfortable as possible. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect. I'll keep your pet's routine consistent, make sure they get plenty of love and attention, and always prioritize their safety on walks and during playtime. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
“Nicole did a great job taking care of Dinley. She walked and played with him and made sure he had food, water and potty breaks. She kept me informed every day on what he did and sent a picture each day as well. She was diligent and prompt and I would recommend her for your pet.”
“Ally did a great job taking care of our 3 cats over a long holiday weekend. She was communicative and made sure each cat was accounted for while we were away. We had no concerns. Would highly recommend her!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Farmington is $20 per visit as of November 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 November 2026, there are 893 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 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.

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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
