“Emma was wonderful. From the moment we met I knew our kitties were in good hands. She truly loves cats and understands their quirky personalities. She took care of everything I asked her to do, including a few “gifts” the kitties left her. I got updates on them and pictures as well. She was very attentive to their needs. It was clear from the pictures they loved their time with her. I highly recommend her and will user her again.”

“Magen was so wonderful with our two kitties while we were away for a week! She not only gave medications, different food schedules, and obviously lots of love and care, she also updated us frequently so we knew they were being well taken care of! I would highly recommend hiring Magen to anyone seeking housesitting services!”

“Sydney has been absolutely wonderful with Rambo so far! 🐾❤️ She is very kind, dependable, communicative, and you can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. She always keeps us updated during her visits, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away at work. Rambo seems very comfortable with her, and knowing he gets some extra love, attention, and company during the day means so much to us. We’re so happy we found Sydney and are looking forward to continuing to have her care for Rambo! Highly recommend her! 🥰🐶”

“Nicole was absolutely fabulous while we were away, dropping in daily to check in on our two cats. She went above and beyond with communication, took multiple photos every day and gave detailed updates of her visits. She was quick to respond to any communication from me and clearly made our cats feel safe and secure while we were away for a week. We will always be requesting Nicole to come back first for any future needs and appreciated her help so very much!!”

About: I have 5+ years of pet care. I foster and currently volunteer with local humane societies. I can provide walks, daycare and boarding for up to two weeks! I have experience with extra small to XL dogs, young and elder cats and reptiles. I’m available 7 days a week 6AM to 8PM. I’m fairly flexible and can work around your schedule, just send me a message and we can work something out. I have a huge fenced in yard and a dog of my own. I have a spare flex room I use for kenneling and overnight boarding.

“Corey and Mia were incredible. My cat is so-so about so many people, but they had the magic touch. I got updates everyday with photos and updates on what they were doing, although I never doubted that they were taking care of him. I felt more peace of mind leaving Stanley with Corey and Mia than I have felt even leaving him with my friends. I will certainly be bringing Stanley back, and could not recommend them more!”

About: I have grown up with dogs in the household while I currently do not have any dogs due to my two cats and living in a rental that doesn’t allow any more than two pets. I love dog sitting for my friends and family when they go out of town! I have worked with small to large dogs, dogs with special medication need's, dogs with behavioral issues/needs and puppies. I currently work from home Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday anywhere between 8 AM to 7 PM depending on my work schedule it changes weekly but I’m more then flexible it fit in walks or drop in visits. My weekends normally consist of just relaxing at home so I thought why not look into helping people with their beloved pets in the evening and on Saturdays and Sundays. Unfortunately, with my two cats living in a townhome rental, I won’t be doing services in my home, however, if I dog sit in your home I will make sure that your pet gets all the correct meals needed, on time medication‘s if needed, and plenty of play times and cuddles with walks throughout the day or as requested!

I’d love to meet your furry friend! 🐾💗 I’m available for pet care around my school and dance schedule and have flexibility on evenings and weekends. I’m happy to work with each pet parent to find a time that works best for their pets and needs. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and supervised while in my care.

About: When your pet stays with me, they are family, and treated as such. I have experience with elderly and hospice pets as well as special-needs pets, young puppies, medication management and administration (liquid, pill, and injections) and some training experience as well. Well versed in pets with special care requirements (i.e. animals with anxiety, reactivity and/or other behavioral challenges). Because I work from home, I can be with your pet throughout the workday, and can easily step away to give your pet potty breaks and attention. I prefer to do house-sitting based pet care, as I’ve found that animals are most comfortable in their home environments. I am also happy to water any plants that may need it, as long as instructions are provided. Happy to work with large animals, amphibians, fish, and reptiles as well. Do note that house-sitting based pet care includes light house maintenance/cleaning as well such as vacuuming and laundering the guest sheets used. I like to leave the houses I care for as neat (if not neater) than they were upon my arrival. I work from home and can easily step away to care for your pet. When pet sitting, I generally don’t leave the house I’m sitting at for more than a few hours at a time, so your pet has reliable supervision and company. I am pet CPR and first aid certified through Red Cross. I am a very cautious and risk-aware person, always mindful of keeping doors and gates shut and ensuring the environment I’m pet-sitting in is safe and secure.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Farmington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Farmington on Rover is $22.2 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 2,504 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.

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

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
