“Aish did such a great job watching our dog Niko over the weekend. We got daily update pictures and messages which gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was doing well and being cared for. Niko looked happy and comfortable the entire time. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
“Chelsie and her family were not only amazing and patient with Tilly, welcoming her into their home while we were away, but she was incredibly flexible with our ever changing travel schedule. Due to weather that prevented us from getting home when we originally anticipated, Chelsie was extremely understanding and accommodating to help extend Tilly’s stay with her family. This was so helpful by taking one thing off of our already stressful plates. Thank you for everything, Chelsie!”
“Rosie had a great time staying with Cheyann & Nicole. The pictures everyday are great. On her return home, no issues! Lots of play time with other dogs and fun in the backyard. Have used Cheyann in the past and will continue to do so in the future.”
“Trudy and her family are wonderful! We get lots of great updates and our pup always comes home happy and tired from lots of play and activity. Can’t recommend Trudy enough.”
“This was our first trip since getting our puppy and initially I had thought we would board her at the local dog boarding facility but then I luckily looked into a local dog sitter and found Becky. She was so sweet and Honey took to her quickly on our meet and greet prior to our vacation so I knew it was going to be a good fit. Becky was great! She kept us updated on how things were going and eased my anxiety of leaving our still learning and occasionally naughty puppy with her family. I got photos and videos which were so fun to see, especially the ones of Honey playing and hanging out with her kids. She really was just one of the family for the week. I will definitely recommend Becky’s dog sitting business and use her in the future. Thanks again for taking care of our little fur baby.”
“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 😊”
“Kelly did a great job watching my two toy Aussie’s! The dogs immediately got comfortable with Kelly and her two beautiful greyhounds. They loved the large fenced in grass yard— they were in dog heaven! Kelly sent photos and kept me posted on how my pups were doing. I so appreciated the updates since Kelly graciously took them at the last minute (due to a funeral in the family). I will definitely contact Kelly again— thank you!”
“So grateful our Dane puppy got to stay with Steve and Diane while we were away for 8 days. It was clear he had a great time and they were super communicative and sent photos. They were also flexible when our flight got delayed and we had to push back a day.”
“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!!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Awesome family! Elizabeth and her family were so accommodating and made sure our babies were comfortable and well taken cared of. Easy communication, updated us regularly especially with pictures and prompt responses. Our babies enjoyed their stay so much in Elizabeth’s home. Highly recommended!”
“I was very happy with my service from Vanessa and Micheal. Don’ t let them being new scare you away. They asked a lot of questions and took notes on everything I said. They did a great job with my dog. I got many photos and updates during his stay. My dog seemed happy and well cared from. They took him on a ton of walks. It is clear they love dogs and want to give them the best care. We will for sure use them again in the future.”
“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!”
“Dee is wonderful! She was so kind and patient with my senior dog. I could tell that he was happy and well taken care of during his stay! I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“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.”

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.

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.
