“Jazlyn was so great. I needed someone to give my kitty oral medication while I was on a work trip. She was able to work things out with her schedule and I know she made my kitty feel really comfortable and it was a good experience because all the other time Jazlyn came to check up the kitty wasn't hiding and would come straight to her. She also did a great job of sending me pictures which I absolutely love.”

“Mary is amazing, I had plans and had to last-minute arrange a visit for my dog. I was pretty unresponsive during his visit without meaning to be, but Mary was checking in and proactive about asking anything she'd need to take good care of him. So appreciative!!”
About: Hi my name is Mackenzie, recently moved to the area from Oregon. Looking to provide your pet with love and care while you’re gone! I’ve spent years dog sitting for friends, family and others on rover. I have watched small dogs and big dogs, households with cats and without. I offer visits to your home, walks, as well as dog sitting in your home. I love to dog sit because it offers me flexibility in my schedule as well as enjoying the companionship of the pets I watch. I look forward to meeting with you and your pets! On a side note: I would like to mention I do currently have a job and my hours are Tuesday-Friday 10am-6pm and can only accommodate 1 drop in visit during those hours, preferably between 12pm-1pm. For overnight dog sitting requests I ask if it’s okay for me to bring my dog along as well while I stay in your home. She’s a 13 year old yorkie named Emma who is spayed, up to date on all her shots, and house trained! She can be a little shy and follows me around everywhere. She loves to cuddle and sleep for most of the day. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, especially since I have an 12-year-old Yorkie of my own. Every day includes walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I’m used to adapting to a pet’s individual needs, whether it’s sticking to a specific feeding schedule, administering medication, or providing a little extra patience and attention. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, and it’s already built into how I plan my day and week. I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable and can stay in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, administering medication, or simply providing companionship. I make sure to keep the home clean and secure, and I always respect any specific instructions left by the owner. My goal is to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their owner is away.
About: I’ve been living and working with dog since i was 5 years old. I have great understanding and respect for all animals and how they work. I grew up with a large Lab, when I moved out I rescued two large dogs of my own from poor living situation. We have been going strong for over 9 years now. I’m more than capable of handling any size dog, and have no problem looking after cats!
About: 🐾 New to Rover, Not to Pet Care! Hi, I’m Shelby! 👋 Although I’m new to Rover, I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for 12+ years. From playful puppies to senior pets and those with special needs, I provide patient, reliable care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and routine. ❤️ As a Direct Support Professional, caring for others is what I do every day. You can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and treat your pets like family. ✨ What you can expect: 🐶 12+ years of pet care experience 💊 Medication administration 🐾 Experience with puppies, seniors & special needs 📸 Frequent photo updates 🚶 Walks, playtime & enrichment 💙 Lots of love, cuddles, and personalized care I know leaving your pet with someone new can feel overwhelming. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family! 🐕🐈 I work full time swings typically 3p-10/12p it varies during the week. When I’m not working I’m a home body so your pets will have company with them most of the morning. I do know my schedule usually a month in advance so I am able to let you know before you officially book and you can decide if it works for you. I prefer to stay in their home which allows them to stay comfortable and in their own environment, new places can cause fur babies unnecessary stress and no one wants that. I prefer to keep their routine as normal as possible as well so if they get fed at 5 am I set an alarm to ensure they get fed at their normal time as well.

We make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and valued while you’re away, giving plenty of attention, playtime, and affection tailored to their personality. Pet care fits perfectly into our schedule, especially when one of us is home from school and work having a four legged friend to keep us company is always the best! In our home, pets are treated like family. We provide a safe, clean, and loving environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, structured routines, and supervision to keep them happy and comfortable, as well as our own furry pup, charlie to keep them company. Its also important to know, Jamie and Aiden (the two of us in the profile picture) work together to ensure that someone is always present with the pets. This allows us to provide a consistently safe and attentive environment.
About: I have two dogs myself both going to be two in May. I’ve had a multiple different animals growing up. in school to be a veterinarian. I am free in the afternoon after 4pm and during the weekend, I’m free anytime. In the holidays it’s more hard to fit in my schedule, but I try to get as much as I can open so I can help. I make sure that they have the food and water that they need and also the right amount of exercise daily. We have many toys and we have a Dog Park that is really close by to my house and also quite a bit of hikes nearby.
About: Hi! I’ve always loved animals of all shapes and sizes. From grumpy elders, introverted and awkward, to overcuddly (actually, I don't think it's possible for dogs to be overcuddly, haha), to high-energy pups, I love them all! I have experience caring for dogs with reactivity, aggression, fearfulness, anxiety, and medical needs . Dogs who may be misunderstood or who require extra patience are welcome! As someone who has had a reactive dog, I understand the struggle it can be to find someone to trust your pet with. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions and will work closely with you to make sure your dog feels safe and cared for. Every dog is different, and I’m happy to adjust to their routine and needs. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, crate time, and any special instructions. In a client’s home, I will respect your space and follow your instructions closely. I’m comfortable with detailed routines, leash safety, medication instructions, feeding needs, and dogs who require extra patience or boundaries. I will always pay attention to your pet’s body language and comfort level, and I’ll treat them with patiencr and respect.
About: Back home when I lived in Florida, I used to work at a veterinary practice that my dad owns (Sunset Point Animal Hospital). I spent lots of time working there through middle school and a lot of time in high school and my early years of college. The biggest thing that sets me apart is that if there’s ever an emergency, I know what to do. I currently travel for work all across the US, right now, my homebase is currently in Salt Lake City. I install for Vivint during the summer months and right now I am in the off-season and have a bunch of free time. Your pet will have my undivided attention and will be taken care of as best as possibly could. No matter what the task is I will be there to do it exceptionally.
About: I am very outgoing, positive and I love dogs. I am patient and caring and can't wait to help you not stress and your pup feel cared for when you are away! At the moment I am at Weber State University student-athlete. I am originally from Oregon and I miss my little beagle so much so I would love to help you with your busy schedules in any way I can and care for you dog(s). Most of the time I will be free Friday - Sunday for house sitting. For walks I am more free because I can come before, between, or even after classes and practice. I can even come let your dogs out for a potty break in between classes, whatever you need help with. I currently live in the dorms so I would have to come to your home if I am pet sitting. I am very responsible and a very hard worker. I would respect your things and only do the things you tell me and need help with. I am a very trustworthy person and very respectful so if you need any help at all of have questions feel free to reach out.
About: I grew up around all types of animals, being from a small Colorado community. I'd love to take care of your babies while you are away! I am currently working part time and have open availability to help you with your pet needs! With the warm winter, our babies deserve to be outside! Happy to accommodate your needs for whatever your beloved baby. I have experience with administering medications and have a larger vehicle and can transport if needed!
“Pretty last minute booking before a holiday and Marissa did a great job looking after our girls (2 cats). From all of the photos she sent it seems like the girls really enjoyed their visitor!”

About: I have always loved taking care of animals! I'm experienced with cats of any age (even newborns) and any care related to them. With dogs, I'm familiar with almost all ages, but especially senior dogs. I know how to give medications as well! I only give the best care possible! I take care of my 3 cats daily! I don't mind adding in dogs or cats, but any will make me happy! Animals are my passion and my first love. I will always make sure the home stays a home, but maybe neater than it was previously haha! I am mindful of what a dog (or cat) is capable of.
About: I grew up with 35+ lb dogs, ranging from 8 months old and unpotty trained to 10 years old and needing medication. I love working and playing with dogs, nothing is better than getting outside for a good play or a walk! I do have a 5 year old sweetheart of my own, and would need to bring her for overnight stays. She’s very friendly with other dogs and extremely mellow, and I’m happy to set up a puppy play date beforehand! I have classes Monday-Thursday afternoons, but I am the go to gal for your weekend trips and lower maintenance dogs! With four days fully available I have all the time to play with your pups! My apartment complex has some outdoor areas where I walk my dog off leash, but I also make sure to take her to the dog park once a day! We’re very careful about picking up after ourselves and keeping everything within (and out of) reach dog friendly!

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Farmington choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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 .
