“Our first experience with Rover couldn’t have been better thanks to Gabriel! During his drop-in visits, he didn’t just feed and check on our cats gently cared for them, even though it was tricky locating them since this was new for them too. His updates were thorough and reassuring, and he was professional and easy to connect with. Will absolutely be reaching out to Gabriel again-highly recommend!!”
“Karen was very responsive to communication and kept me up on her schedule. She showed up as planned and made sure our 3 cats had everything they needed in our absence. I would definitely recommend Karen to anyone needing a trusted caregiver.”
“Chelsie took wonderful care of my cat, Pablo, during our 8 days of twice a day drop in visits. She is clearly great with cats and connected with Pablo right away during the meet and greet. I really appreciate her consistent updates and photos while I was away. I will definitely rebook Chelsie again for future pet sitting needs and I highly recommend her to others! It was so nice to have the peace of mind that he was in such great hands while I was so busy on my long trip.”

“Kristy was the most perfect pet sitter for our kitty, Bear. This was our first time using Rover and it couldn’t have been a better experience. After meeting with Kristy we knew it’d be a great fit and that was clear during her visits with Bear. We received detailed updates with each visit, along with pictures and videos. There was no doubt that Bear loved the check in visits with Kristy!”
About: I’ve grew up having animals. From cats to dogs to some small pets. I can feed, bathe, or take them for a walk if need be. I currently work full time from 8am-4:30pm. Very flexible after I get off. I’m off on Saturdays and Sundays. I try to be as flexible as I can be :) I’m willing to take your dogs in the yard or walk them down the street if needed. If you prefer to crate your pet when you are not home I can do that as well. I'm comfortable with taking care of cats as well as reptiles. If they love hikes as well I would love to take them on one!
About: For me, pets are family, not just animals we care for! 🤍 As a dog mom to Scottie, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Whether that means playing fetch, keeping them company, giving extra cuddles, or sending you cute updates while you’re away, I want you to feel at ease knowing your babies are in good hands. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and right at home! 🐶💕 I have a daily routine with my own dog, Scottie, and understand the importance of keeping pets on their regular schedules. I’m happy to fit pet care into my routine and provide feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention while their owners are away! 🐾 I offer my services at YOUR home. I feel it’s important to keep animals where they are comfortable and feel safe while you are away!🐾
About: Your pets are family, and they deserve the same care, attention, and affection they receive at home. I provide dependable, genuine pet care with a personal touch—treating every dog like they’re my own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 197 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 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 Meet & Greet.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 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.
