Aish and her family were so sweet and attentive to our fur baby. I was a little bit concerned (but expecting) that our pup will probably not eat at first due to new surroundings. But I was wrong. He felt welcome and secure and had a lot of fun playing with Scooby that he felt at ease immediately and was eating regularly. Aish sent me lots of pictures of him. :) I would definitely recommend Aish!

Sean was great! Sent us a couple of videos of our dog playing and running around in his big fenced in yard! We could tell he genuinely cares for our pet as if it were his own. Will definitely book with Sean again!

Alecia and Todd are fantastic. We were a little nervous because we’ve had varying degrees of success leaving our pup with a sitter, but Alecia, Todd, and their family took great care of him. They went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable - he even made new dog friends at their house😁. Communication was a breeze and we received thoughtful updates throughout our time away. Hope to book with Alecia and Todd again!🩵🩵

Marine was super friendly and very responsive. She provided photos of our 4 lb yorkie almost daily during our 7 day vacation. This was a big step for us because we’ve never left our 3yr old dog with anyone before and the photos brought us great comfort knowing he was being well cared for. I feel very confident using Marine’s services again, we will definitely be calling her again!

Katrina and Drew were great! They were quick to communicate and were very accommodating to minor schedule changes. Our pup did so well she ran out of food! She usually skips meals when away from home and I pack accordingly. Katrina quickly replaced the food to keep Schatzi on schedule!

Elizabeth and her family took exceptional care of our 3 year old cat, Crosby for 7 days. We received daily updates and pics showing all his usual favorite things to do. He was given loving attention and they asked questions when needed. We’re looking forward to more vacation stays for Crosby with this lovely family. THANK YOU, Elizabeth!

Katie and her family were amazing. They made our senior dog feel part of their family. They gave medication and attended to all his needs. Not only was he cared for but he was made part of their family. We would always recommend Katie and her family to watch our dog. She sent updates all the time and pictures of our dog having a great time with the family. Truly an amazing experience.

Vanessa and Michael and their daughters did a wonderful job of caring for our dog Pippa, who is slightly more than a year old. They sent regular photos of her showing daily activities and how they interacted with her. They showed her a great deal of affection. Pippa came home happy and more grown up than when she left. We are very pleased.

Kathi has provided the ultimate care for our aging yellow labrador Hank. He arrived for his latest stay with an upset tummy probably caused by watching us pack our bags! Kathi checked in with us and then took the extra steps you would take at home, preparing rice and meat to ease his tummy back to normal. We are so grateful to have found her! We appreciate her communication skills, including daily updates and pictures which put our minds at ease. We highly recommend Kathi's services, you will be so pleased with her care!

Cindy and Brooke were awesome in caring for our Springer, Benny. Her place is well set up for taking great care of you pet. Her fenced yard is a bonus place for dogs to be able to safely go out. The kennel size was very good with good light for our dog and comfortable space and her place was both welcoming and clean. Both of them exhibited excellent knowledge of animals and handling them well. We would definitely use Cindy again.

FAQs for Boarding - Farmington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Farmington on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 2,200 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Farmington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

94% of Farmington sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Farmington landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Farmington home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Farmington.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Farmington sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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.

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 .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in MN ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
