About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals especially Dogs and Cats. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including providing daily exercise, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and plenty of attention. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I’m available part-time on weekdays after 4 PM and have flexible availability anytime on weekends. I enjoy spending time caring for and keeping pets happy and comfortable while their families are away. I care for pets in their home by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide fresh food and water, walks and playtime, potty breaks, medication if needed, and plenty of love and attention. I also make sure their home is left clean and secure so both you and your fur baby can feel comfortable while you’re away. 🐾❤️

About: When I’m not boarding, walking, or doing doggy daycare I’m hanging out with my kiddos. Occasionally I also foster puppies at 8 weeks old and start the potty training process and prepare them to go to their furever home. Does your dogs like to sleep on the couch? Perfect! I do too! Do they prefer to sleep in bed with you at night? Not a problem, come on in! Does your dog need daily walks? You got it! I live on a quiet road off the beaten path. I tend to treat all animals with the respect and love I give my children and I teach my children the same morals. Pets aren’t just pets in my eyes, each dog has needs they need to have met and it’s my job to make that happen when they are in my care. During my high school years I spent my time after school volunteering at the local veterinary clinic assisting the vet techs preform their daily tasks. Growing up I worked on a dairy farm. I know how to administer medications, potty train, bathe, and trim nails. I’m a stay at home mom during the week so I am always home to give my furbabies all the love and attention they want. When I’m home and need to leave your pups will tag along with me through my daily routine and hangout with me. Or if they’d prefer to relax at home and have free range they can! I try to keep a potty and feeding schedule the same as when they are with you. I live in a lake house so if your pups love to swim then this is the place to be! I also have a decent size yard (unfenced) for playing. My two dogs will keep your furbaby company in a doggy sense. My children will also play with your babies so they will definitely have a lot of attention. Inside my house is baby proof so it is also dog proof. Do you want to FaceTime your dog while they are with me? Not a problem, call whenever. I will send pictures and updates throughout the day for you so you know they are okay. Your pets truly are treated like family in my care.

About: I have an 18-year-old dog and previously had another dog who passed away, so I understand the importance of giving them love, patience, and gentle care. I also have over 6 years of babysitting experience, which has taught me to be responsible, attentive, and dependable. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! As a college student, I have a flexible schedule and can work pet care into my daily routine. I am happy to coordinate with pet owners to find times that work best for everyone. I care for pets in their own homes, where they can feel safe and comfortable in familiar surroundings. I follow owners’ instructions carefully, maintain their routines, and provide plenty of love and attention. I’ll also send photo updates so you can feel confident your pets are in good hands!

About: I’ve taken care of a family dog Chihuahua for the past 8 years. I enjoy taking her on walks and giving her all the attention she deserves! I currently am on a job rotation in Maine. I am unable to take the step to caring for a dog full time, but I’d love to fill the void with weekly care! I care for a dog like I’d care for a family member. It’s important for me to create a comfortable environment for the dog to hang around in

“Yujie has been doing regular weekly drop-in visits for our two dogs, and he’s been amazing. He’s very attentive, communicative, and responds quickly. He’s truly gone above and beyond to care for my dogs while I’m working. My dogs, Arnold and Rico, absolutely love Yujie, and he always sends us great pictures during his visits. It gives us such peace of mind knowing they have a caring, reliable person spending time with them during the day—playing with them and giving them potty breaks. I would highly recommend Yujie for anyone looking for pet care!”

About: Pet sitter with 10 years experience. 5 years veterinary experience as well as training and grooming experience. I've never had a job that didn't involve animals and I would never change that. My passion for animal care is unmatched and I truly love what I do. I'm able to provide an array of different services including but not limited to day long hikes as well as beach trips. Whether your furry friend needs a quick 30-minute walk or an all-day adventure, I've got you covered! Mine and my fiancé's life revolves around our own 2 dogs and they are spoiled rotten. They're the reason I get up in the morning, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. From 6 am wake-up calls for puppy cuddles to 10 pm bedtime stories (yes, you read that right - my dogs love a good bedtime story!), our fur babies are the center of our universe. Some fun facts about me are I played competitive travel softball for 13 years - I'm talking national championships, folks! And in my free time, when not hiking with my own dogs or yours, I love to get creative with pottery. It's my go-to stress-reliever, and I hope to open my own studio one day. But enough about me - let's talk about your furry friend! What are their favorite toys, treats, and activities!! Tell me everything, and let's get this paw-some adventure started! I’m currently working full time as a pet sitter!! So if you need someone reliable and consistent please feel free to reach out! I’m here for you :) I’m currently working with no yard so we have changed the “normal” we plan 1 adventure a day for boarding dogs weather that be a long hike.. a trip to the beach or in indoor activity in a pet friendly store you’re pup will be well occupied. Boarding pups will also get multiple 15-30 min walks a day and have full access to my home. I have 2 pups who are 2 different activity levels so someone will always have a friend. The toy basket is bottomless and the couch is fair game :) when your pup stays with me they will always be the number 1 priority.

About: Animal lover with a passion for caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Reliable, patient, and attentive, with a focus on keeping pets safe, active, and happy on every walk. I'm currently not working, so I have plenty of time to cuddle and take care of your pets! My availability is wide open! Limited weekend hours. My home isn't pet friendly as my cats don't like friends. So any pet watching would have to be at your house or outside or another location.

About: I have been around dogs all of my life and I have grown up with Boxers. When I was in high school I would watch dogs in my town very frequently, from staying overnight to just walking and letting them out during the day. I currently work full time in Portsmouth. I work in the office M-F but I can make arrangements if your pet needs to be let out during the day. I am respectful and courteous of my clients homes. I clean up after myself and I always keep my clients updated during my stay by providing pictures and reaching out if needed.

About: Growing up, my family always had at least one dog in the household (boxers, a lab/pitbull mix, aussies, and even a chihuahua). Going to school in Boston, my roommates and I dog walked one dog daily and dog sat for a total of 4 others. Moving up to the seacoast area, I have begun volunteering (walking, fostering, and assisting with events) for a local shelter in my free time. This has included puppies as young as 2 months to larger mature dogs for anywhere from a sleepover to as long as 2 weeks. I work full time Monday through Friday but have some flexibility with my hours. Outside of work I stay very active but I am eager to work some dog time into my schedule. I cannot have dogs at my residence due to rental requirements but am happy to take dogs on walks/adventures and dog sit wether that be for a few hours or days at the dog’s/client’s home.

About: Hi, I’m Ally! Animals have always been at the heart of my life—my cat is my best friend, but I truly love and care for every creature I meet. I’ve been caring for pets since childhood, from cats and dogs to small animals, reptiles, amphibians, and birds. My passion for animals led me to pursue formal training in their care. I began taking animal care classes in high school, earned my Associate’s degree in Animal Sciences from Jackson State Community College, and went on to graduate from The University of Tennessee at Martin with a Bachelor’s in Veterinary Technology. I have hands-on experience from two years of volunteering at the Jackson Animal Care Center and have been working in veterinary clinics since 2022. I’m currently a certified veterinary technician at LoveWell Veterinary Services, where I work with a wide variety of animals every day. While I’m new to professional pet sitting, I’ve been a trusted caregiver for friends’ and family’s pets for years. I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring health, and providing loving companionship to pets with all kinds of needs. At home, I share my life with a friendly cat and a yorkie who both enjoy meeting new animal friends. I would love the opportunity to give your pets the same care and attention I give my own! I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to have more time for your pets! I am off every other Monday and only work half days on Tuesday and Thursday so even if it says I’m unavailable shoot me a message! As your pet sitter, I will care for your pets as if they were my own—providing them with love, attention, and a safe, comfortable environment. I’ll follow their routine closely, make sure they’re fed and exercised on schedule, and keep them happy with playtime and affection.

About: I’m patient, attentive, and great with all temperaments, from playful puppies to calm seniors. I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback and two Australian Shepherds that I’ve raised from 8 weeks old, working on training, routines and daily care. I always prioritize safety, keep routines consistent, and always send thoughtful updates and photos so you feel totally at ease while you’re away. I absolutely love dogs and genuinely enjoy fitting pet care into my routine. I’m available for walks and drop-ins around my work schedule, and I’m consistent, on-time, and flexible when plans change. I’m great with early mornings or evenings and happy to coordinate what works best for you and your pet. I treat every home with respect and every pet like my own. I follow routines closely, double-check doors and leashes, keep walks safe and calm, and make sure pets feel comfortable and secure. I’m clean, mindful in your space, and always send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

“After meeting with Gwen we felt they were a good fit, and we scheduled nightly check ins/ feedings for our cats for the 10 days we would be visiting family. Gwen has such a pleasant demeanor and always talks to our cats just like we would! We made it clear that our priority is the cats getting love and attention and they consistently played with and loved on our cats. They are great at following instructions and not only made sure our cats were loved and fed but also took care of our many plants, and even tackled the weekly deep clean of our giant litter box! Our cats always seem happy to see Gwen and we got detailed updates and excellent communication throughout our trip. When we had to extend our trip for a couple days, they went above and beyond and accommodated to be able to continue the check-ins for those days. Gwen is a friendly, responsible, attentive person and is a fabulous sitter! We highly recommend their services!”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Farmington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 939 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Farmington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
