“Sarah is amazing! She was available in an emergency and is both sweet and professional. I know my cats feel comfortable around her and can tell they are well cared for in my absence. She goes above and beyond in communication and care. I have already rebooked and 100% recommend her!”

“I enthusiastically recommend Brit! We have a 20-year old cat with dementia and some vision loss, and normally I'd hesitate to leave her with someone she doesn't know. Brit was very responsive to my texts throughout the weekend, and she kept us updated on her visits with notes and pictures. We arrived home to find a calm and obviously very well cared for kitty! I'd happily hire Brit again!”

About: I’m majoring in business and I own a long haired chihuahua. I’ve cared for neighbor’s and family’s dogs in the past by walking and dog sitting. I’m on a very flexible schedule, so most times during week days I will be able to walk your dog! I’m excited to take them on walks :) For dog walking, I like to make sure we walk in areas with sidewalks that are safe. I’d bring water to keep your dog hydrated, especially if it is warm out!

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.

About: Hello, I’m Rick, an experienced pet sitter dedicated to providing exceptional care for your furry family members in the comfort of their own home. I specialize in in-home house sitting because pets are always happiest and least stressed when they get to stick to their normal routines in familiar surroundings. Whether you’re heading out of town for the weekend, going on an extended vacation, or need reliable care over the holidays, I offer complete piece of mind while you’re away. I have cared for puppies all the way up to seniors. I require a smoke free home for my own health and breathing comfort. I am best suited to care for small to medium dogs, or specific breeds I know well. I am available 7 days per week, in addition to holidays. I walk pets in the morning and afternoon. Bonus if you live in Livonia because I will also stop in on lunch. Sometimes my random vacation days coincide with pet sitting as well. Currently, I do not have any pets, but when I did, I make all the time in the world for them. I have always cared for others’ little family members in their homes. The animals are more comfortable that way, and not anxious. There are a few that I care for so often, they gave me my own key to make it more convenient. If that doesn’t show an example of trust….

About: I’m a ceramic artist, art teacher, and passionate animal lover. I have two wonderful dogs, Chispa and Puggy, who love meeting new furry friends. With years of experience caring for my own pets, I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pets are in good hands. Whether it’s a walk, a playdate, or just some company while you’re away, I’ll treat your pets like part of the family! Pets always come first in my home. I love taking my dogs on hikes, walks, and puppy playdates. I live in a dog friendly complex with a park and have a small, private fenced yard and terrace, perfect for sunbathing pups! If your dog needs a bath, I’m happy to give them a scrub in the tub. I’m also known for making homemade dog treats. Let me spoil your dog with lots of love and care! I work from home full time, so your dog will receive constant attention and care throughout their stay. We only board small to medium sized dogs (under 40 pounds), but I’m happy to discuss any special exceptions. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities!

About: I’ve always been the person animals gravitate toward. I grew up with cats and later had two Italian Mastiffs, so I’m very comfortable with both small pets and big, strong personalities. I almost became a vet at one point, but after shadowing, I realized my heart just couldn’t handle that side of things. What I do love is creating a calm, safe, and loving environment for animals to just be. In my day-to-day life, I run my own business and come from a background in events and marketing, so I’m naturally very detail-oriented and respectful of your space. I’m also a competitive figure skater, which means I’m disciplined, reliable, and consistent especially when it comes to routines and care. I keep a flexible, self-managed schedule, which allows me to be very intentional with the time and care I give to each home and pet. I’m able to adapt to your pet's routine and make sure visits feel consistent, calm, and reliable while you’re away. I approach pet care in a really intentional, calm way. I let animals set the tone and focus on creating a safe, low-stress environment where they can feel comfortable. I’m also very detail-oriented when it comes to your home. I follow routines closely, keep things tidy, and make sure everything is locked up and secure. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and a space that feels just as you left it.

About: I’ve always loved dogs and have a 3 year old and 6 month old Australian Shepherd, so I’m very comfortable with high energy pups. I’d love to help care for your pet! I offer walking, boarding, and drop-in services. I work mostly from home, so I’m around throughout the day for boarding and attentive care. I also own a spacious home with a large yard, giving your pet plenty of room to play and relax. Prior to accepting boardings, guests must be up-to-date on their rabies, distemper/parvo, and bordetella vaccines and provide proof of vaccination status. The health of your pups and my pup are my top priority. Since I mainly WFH, I am available for boarding and daycare services any day of the week. I am also available for walks and check-ins after work and on the weekends. I have a very friendly dog who regularly goes to dog daycare and is up to date on all of his vaccinations and flea/tick/heart worm, so he knows how to play safely with other dogs and is crate trained. I can crate your dog as well if preferred.

“I would HIGHLY recommend Ciara to anyone looking for pet care of any kind. She takes such amazing care of Angel everytime I board with her. I get lots of pictures and video updates of her and she is played with and watched 24/7. I trust her fully and she treats my cat as if it were her own. Ciara goes above and beyond any pet sitter I’ve had. Angel & I will miss you in Nashville!”

I am also highly detail-oriented, organized, and understand the importance of routine and structure in your dog's life. Your instructions, requests, and/or concerns are my top priority.

I will follow any instructions and requests you give me to a tee, and your pet(s) safety is my top priority.

About: In my circle of family and friends, I’m known as the “resident pet sitter.” I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, cats, and everything in between. I’m comfortable administering medications (I give my own cat medicine daily!) and have experience helping anxious pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m very attentive to routines and always follow feeding schedules and instructions carefully. When I care for your pets, I treat them like my own and how I hope someone would treat my pets. I am patient and understanding and would love to get to know your furry friend’s quirks! Since I work from home, pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, whether that’s feeding, playtime, walks, or just keeping them company. I enjoy building my day around making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any specific care requests. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while their owners are away. I also treat every home with respect and keep things clean and organized. I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I've been raised around animals my entire life from cats, dogs, and birds. My family has always had pets since I can remember, so I've become very comfortable in caring for them and have plenty of knowledge in animal care. Additionally, I would look after my neighbors dogs and cats when they were out of town or unavailable. I am familiar with routine potty breaks, feeding, play time, and practicing commands. I am a full-time employee at Emory Winship Cancer Institute so I will be in-person during the day Monday-Friday. However, I could manage mid-day walks for pets nearby as well as early morning walks. I’m available in the evenings and on weekends! I live in an apartment with a roommate, so I would prefer to do stays longer than one day at the owner’s home. I’m next to a park, however, so short-term stays are welcomed and pet friendly!

Tricia did a wonderful job taking care of our cats while we were away. She really took the time to get to know them, which meant a lot to us. She was dependable, attentive and sent regular updates and photos so we always knew how they were doing. It gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were gone and we would absolutely book her again.

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 of Cat Sitting in Farmington on Rover is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 per visit. 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.

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 .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

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 , 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.
