“Madalyne went above and beyond to take care of our cat who was injured before we left. She made us feel so comfortable being gone. Can’t thank her enough! We will definitely hire her again!!”
“Sarah was amazing! She took incredible care of our cat and he warmed to her instantly. We would happily entrust Sarah again with the care of our furry loved one. Additionally, my partner ended up getting really sick which delayed the start to our trip (and cat care). Sarah was so flexible and understanding! Highest Rec!”
“Aixa was wonderful! She came through for us as a last minute request. She was so thoughtful about sending pictures and giving us updates (and even bought a new toy for the cats - they're so spoiled now ?). She truly went above and beyond and the cats enjoyed her visits. Highly recommended!!”
“Alexi was wonderful! She and River got along great, she was on time and communicative for every visit, overall a lovely and reassuring experience that eased our minds while we were away! Plus, the pics were adorable! Highly recommend!”
“Theresa was fantastic! She did her best to make sure beans was as taken care of as possible in our absence. I would absolutely recommend her if you need someone to take care of your furry friend.”
“It’s so nice being able to go on day trips with the family knowing Nick is going to be spending some time with the girls while we’re gone. Both our dogs love seeing that it’s their friend when he comes through the door. Can’t recommend Nick enough!”
About: I have always loved caring for animals, my pets or not. I have more experience with cats and dogs, and can work with reptiles, amphibians, and birds as well. I used to own my pet sitting business, exclusive to my former apartment complex. I have cared for animals with various health issues and am comfortable taking on the extra responsibility. I am adaptable to how you love your pet. I work from home but I do have a flexible schedule. I could on very rare occasion, host your pet. I am available Sunday, Thursday-Saturday. I am consistent with schedules and I am punctual. I am adaptable to how you care for you pet, plus some extra love. I am very mindful of any specific type of pet and I do research before each sit. I am loving and also respectful is the pet is not affectionate.

“Kara did a great job with a drop in visit for my anxious German Shepherd! She made the process so easy and took great care of my pup. Looking forward to booking her again for future drop in visits!”
“Shiyuan was amazing! She was so thoughtful, reliable, and kind. She took care of everything perfectly and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. We really appreciated how much care and attention she gave. I’d absolutely choose her again!”
About: I grew up with dogs and love going on walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, and making sure each dog gets plenty of attention and affection. I take the time to learn every dog’s personality and energy level so they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. My goal is for your pup to feel like they’re on their own little vacation too! I work full-time during the week, but I have availability after work and on weekends for pet care. I also have earlier afternoons on Wednesdays and Fridays, which gives me extra flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s needs and communicate clearly to ensure dependable and loving care. I will always respect your home and follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to ensure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, and companionship, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Communication is also very important to me, so you can expect regular updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is for you to return home to a happy, well-cared-for pet and a home that has been treated with the utmost respect.
“LeAnna is kind and caring. She took excellent care of my cats. Both are shy, but came out to greet her. I loved getting the pictures. Everything was neat and clean. I came home to relaxed kitties.”
“Taylor did such a great job with our 2 crazy furries! She updated me on their visit and sent pictures - definitely helps mom feel at ease when away ? thanks, Taylor!”
About: I’m a girl that enjoys spending my free time with furry friends! I have 10+ years of experience working pets of all kinds. Family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors rely on me for their pet sitting needs, and I have experience as a vet assistant, kennel technician, and veterinary receptionist. I am currently working on my undergrad to become a Veterinary Technician as well :) I am available for dog walking, house check-ins, potty time and bathing/nail trims on Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday's after 5pm. I have open availability for all services on Tuesday, Wednesday and Sunday's. Caring for pets whether they're canines or felines in my home or at a client's home is very important. As always, they will have access to water at all times, receive their meals and medications (will be documented to keep track), and be loved as if they're my own. All pets will go potty regularly, spend time doing enrichment activities and go on walks to stretch their legs. Regarding our kitty friends, their litter boxes will be checked twice a day to ensure urine and bowel production, and they will receive the same care as our pups.
“Maria was available on short notice and did an amazing job. I was heading out of town and she not only came over for a meet & greet the night of the booking, but she was able to check in on my dogs over the upcoming weekend.”
About: I have taken care of dogs professionaly for the past two years. throughout this time I had plenty of experience working with all kinds of dogs, from puppies to seniors and small to large! I am currently working full time 9-5:30 M-F, but am more than willing to take visits before or after my shifts, as well as on the weekends. I enjoy spending time with animals and it is always the highlight of my day! When I offer services for clients and their pets, something I will do every single time is rinse and refill their pets water. If needed, I will give the pet food or treats as requested by the owner. If there is a mess or accident I will clean it right away!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Farmington
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Mochi! 🐱💕 Sarah took such amazing care of her while we were away and gave us so much peace of mind (with her detailed notes and cute pics/videos too!). She even went above and beyond by helping take care of our home during her drop-ins 🏡✨ We came home to a happy kitty and a well-cared-for house. So grateful and would absolutely recommend her! 🥰🐾
Madalyne is so good with my skittish kitties. She managed to get them to come out from hiding and one even sat next to her. This is a big deal! She takes great care with the food and litter as well, making sure my cats are well taken care of. Gives me such peace of mind when traveling.
We absolutely loved having LeAnna take care of our cats! She was so sweet and caring with all of them, and we really appreciated that she was comfortable giving our senior cat her medication. It made being away so much easier knowing they were in such good hands. She kept us updated and we could tell our cats were happy and well taken care of when we got home. We would definitely have LeAnna watch them again!
Maria was wonderful with my two kitties! She was friendly, responsive, and stopped by for check-ins while we were away. She followed all of the instructions I left, and my cats have quite a few gadgets (a Litter Robot, microchip feeders, etc.), which wasn’t a problem for her at all. Most importantly, my super shy kitty (who never comes out for strangers) came out to see her right away! I was so happy that he felt comfortable with her, especially since he gets extremely anxious when we’re away. He’s had sitters in the past who never see him because he likes to hide, yet he was eating treats out of her hand. I would absolutely recommend Maria and would happily book with her again! :)

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Farmington on Rover is $19.26 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,132 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Farmington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
