“Leanna was great! She treated Murphey very well, kept him occupied and he had lots of fun. She kept me up to date with texts and pix. I will definitely use her again!”
“I’m so glad and thankful we met Aish in Rover . Aish and family took good care of Cloud. They send pics and videos throughout the day, and I’m at peace during our vacay knowing she’s well taken care off.”
“Chelsie was an awesome dog sitter. She watched our two dogs and sent many updates throughout their stay. She was also very accommodating to our schedule. We would definitely have her watch our dogs again!”
“I left my senior lab, Champ with Cheyann for 11-12 days over the holidays. It's the longest we've ever left him and the first time I used Rover. I would not hesitate to leave him with her again. Her entire family pitches in to welcome your dog. She was extremely flexible and easy to work with. Champ has cancer and is on meds and when I notified her a few days prior to leaving that he had a bladder infection related to the cancer, and was lame on 1 foot so would require 2 additional meds, she didn't hesitate to assure me that it was not a problem. She is extremely responsive to my texts and questions prior to leaving. During Champ's stay, she sent several pictures, even though she knew I would not have service, just so I would know he was well when I was finally able to. If we are ever in need of a sitter again, she will be the one I contact!”
“Cindy always does an outstanding job with our dogs--and goes above and beyond taking care of the house while we're gone. We are always comfortable knowing the dogs are getting such good care.”
“Carrie and Mark were great with our dog Sunny. We received daily picture updates and fast replies if we had any questions. They both seemed laid back and easy to work with! Will book with them again in the future 😊”
“Everything was great for Cooper and for us while we were on vacation. Becky took excellent care of him and sent us some photos along the way. We will definitely book again for future travel.”
“Great sitters, nice family. Our dogs had a great time there and immediately fell asleep when they got home after all the play time. Will be booking again with Liana and Dan in the future.”
“Took great care of my dog, Scout!! Took the time to find out about her needs, routines and behavior. I knew right away she would be in wonderful hands. Definitely would recommend!!”
“Michelle and Brian are amazing. They sent regular photos and videos showing how happy Hiccup was during her stay with them. They were incredibly observant and even noticed a small bump that formed on Hiccups eye lid. It went away before we got home but I thought it was pretty great how they would notice something so small on a dog they dont own. Definitely appreciate them calling it out even though it was totally nothing. Just shows how far they go to make sure Hiccup was being well taken care of.”
“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!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Alecia and Todd made it a great experience! Their communication was great and we received updates throughout her stay. Our dog is getting older, so she sometimes needs a little extra love and attention, but Alicia and Todd made sure she was comfortable and happy throughout. Highly recommended!”
“Kelly is superb at caring for our dog. When we leave, our dog doesn’t eat well, but Kelly coaxed her to eat well! She gave Grace plenty of outdoor time as well as snuggles and attention. We love Kelly and our dog does too!”
“Trudy really takes care of our dogs… coco was very happy spending time with Trudy and Archie( Trudy’s dog ) .. she had great time over there .. Trudy used to send photos and videos of coco everyday .. we would love to send coco back again any day…”
“Its scary to leave your pet with strangers. I got good vibes from this family and trusted them with my dog for 5 nights. They provided the best updates and photos showing how loved and cared for my ? was while in their care. If my pup ever wanders, I'll check with them first because I'm sure he would love to go back.”
“So grateful to have these two wonderful people look after my baby! They always offer frequent updates and photos, so you know what your pet is up to all day long. That was my third time booking with them and I will continue to use them in the future. A+!”
“Ann was amazing. She took care of our senior dog with some medical needs and aging and gave Louise exactly what she needed with such positive kindness. We got pictures and videos and felt like our sweet little old lady dog was truly in the best care during our trip. I will definitely use Ann again because she was incredible.”
“Dee was amazing!!! Such a dog lover, especially my little dauschund. We visited and I immediately felt comfortable with my dog in her home. She is very calm, friendly and attentive. While on vacation, Dee sent photos and updates throughout the week. I would 100% recommend Dee to anyone that is looking for a sitter.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Farmington
Leanna and Steven did a SUPER, FANTASTIC, and AMAZING job with caring for our 11-week old puppy (mixed Australian Shepard and Labrador Retriever)! Both were thankfully available to dog sit him almost "last minute" (almost less than 2 week of booking) over the 4th of July holiday week, which allowed us to go on our week long vacation. She provided updates and took pictures everyday to show us how great of a time he was having with all the other pets and adapted very well to being around and in a new environment. They followed our care instructions to a "T" and cared for him like he was their own. When we went to pick him up, Leanna and Steven were even more super helpful to help carry our foldable/portable crate, pet bed, blanket, and bags to our car and it was a fun surprise to receive a little pet goodie bag as a little farewell gift! We are super appreciative and thankful for Leanna and Steven and would highly recommend them anytime for pet sitting and doggy day care!
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.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Farmington on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,239 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.
