About: I have been taking care of dogs, up to 4 at a time, for 13 years. I believe it is a privilege to own animals and take care of them, I have such a big heart and care deeply about animals quality of life. I have dedicated large amounts of time to research on how to provide the upmost care to dogs, specifically large dogs. I have a 7 year old Lab of my own and he is my whole world! I would love to share my experience and knowledge with other pet families so they can trust their animal is happy and safe with me. I am very educated on dog health and know the signs of when a dog needs vet care and I am very comfortable administering first-aid. I am currently working remote with some freelance and contract work, but I am looking to spend more time doing things I enjoy and finding myself more of a community. I have a 7 year old Labrador that has a sold routine and he is very happy. I am very proactive in his care and quality of life and some people have said I’m high-maintenance with my dog or I care too much, but I believe an animal’s quality of life is just as important as our quality of life. I think routine and high quality care is very important. It is also very important to me to be as educated as possible when it comes to dogs behaviors and needs. I know how to communicate with them and understand their behaviors due to my personal experience and years of deep research. I will always be attentive to your pets needs, it comes very naturally for me!
“I am so happy to find such a great dog walker! Jeffrey communicated well, sent pictures and his route, and handled my foster dog's pulling and slobber with grace. Highly recommend and will use again!”
“McKenna has a great positive attitude and gentle demeanor. My dogs have warmed up to her well after a few weeks of walks. She will be house-sitting dog-sitting for us next. She responds quickly to messages, too, which is nice.”
About: From 2017 to 2019 I did in-home dog and drop by cat sitting through word of mouth. Since 2019 I have been using Rover. I have cared for various retreivers, hounds, labs, and husky-mixes. I have a strict policy of not taking dogs off leash. I am happy to provide daily exercise by walking the neighborhood, going to the park, or hiking a trail. I have open availability at this time. I am available almost every day of the week and can accommodate most scheduling needs. Just let me know what works best for you! Honestly owner preferences and dog/cat needs dictate how I will care for your pet. Is your cat shy of people? I can respect their boundaries. Is your dog high energy? A nice hike sounds great!
“Cameron does such a great job walking my pup who is a little anxious with new people coming into our home. Gives updates and is super flexible and easy to work with!”
About: Dogs, cats, reptiles, small mammals, I’ve taken care of them all. I’ve always loved animals ever since I was a young child. I’ve had personal and professional experience with many breeds of dogs, cats, and other types of animals! I’ve helped train the three puppies that my family and I have, and I’ve medicated dogs & cats when needed. I have experience taking care of my dog Daisy’s newborn puppies for months, as well as taking care of a neighbor’s litter of puppies for a week while the family was away. I am very detail oriented and have lots of compassion which is the perfect combination of qualities to give your pets the best care. Your pets are special and unique. Getting their specific needs met is my top priority! I have plenty of time every day to check on your pets, play with them, walk with them, and chill with them. I have availability on Mondays-Sundays for check-ins and walks. I can check on your pets or take them for a walk basically anytime in the morning, afternoon or evening. I do not walk puppies under 1 year old unless they have all of their vaccines up to date. Please message me with any specific questions! When available for overnight pet sitting/longer stays. I would come to your home to patiently greet your pets. I’d pay special attention to how much your pets are eating and drinking. I’ll follow specific instructions from any client as to what they want me to do to care for their pets. If there’s no specific instructions, no worries! I’ll make sure they get playtime, relaxing time, and walks if that’s what your pets like. I can also give baths depending on the temperament of your animals because I want everyone involved to be safe and comfortable. Each time before I leave a client’s home, I clean up their pet’s potty places and make sure the pets are all set for their owner’s arrival.
About: I have loved animals my whole life and have been pet sitting for a year now! I don’t ask for very much money as I am mostly doing this to spend time with animals (but money would be nice) I am free whenever! I am not attending college currently so I have all the time in the world! I can even pull all nighters for neonatal kittens :) I am not currently accepting pet care in my home but I promise to keep yours safe!

About: Hi! I’m an animal lover who has grown up surrounded by pets and has always had a special place in my heart for animals. I grew up with dogs and also had cats throughout college, so I’m comfortable and familiar with caring for both! I’m genuinely obsessed with animals and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pet is energetic and loves long walks, playful and curious, or more laid-back and enjoys cuddles and company, I’m happy to give them the attention, love, and care they deserve. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I promise to treat them like they’re my own. I’m responsible, attentive, and excited to meet you and your furry family members! I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, which allows me to dedicate lots of time and attention to caring for pets. I’ve spent the past year traveling and am enjoying having some time at home before my next adventure. I’d love to discuss any scheduling concerns, and feel I’d be able to accommodate most requests. When caring for pets in their own home, I want to make sure they feel as comfortable, safe, and loved as possible in their familiar environment. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I always do my best to follow their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any other care instructions.

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.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and love caring for pets of all ages and breeds! I’ve cared for my parents’ Lab/Border Collie mix and many friends’ pets.

I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day to give your furry friend plenty of love and attention. I have main-floor living and access to a shared fenced in neighborhood yard. When dog sitting I typically offer 1–3 walks per day, with potty and play breaks as often as every 30 minutes! I have a fenced in yard which is shared with my neighbors. Dogs are required to be on leash at all times, it’s perfect for a quick walk for a potty break and I live very close to a park which is perfect for playing. I cover my furniture with sheets so pets are welcomed on any furniture!
About: I’ve had the opportunity to care for all types of pets since I was really little! Pet sitting around my neighborhood during middle & high school as well as college has grown my ability to care for pets in a loving & compassionate way. I would love any opportunity to make any pet a part of my daily life! I currently work part time as a barista & have a lot of free time that would allow me to care for a pet to the fullest capacity. My shift are never longer than 7 hours & I have frequent breaks where I could check up on a pet & make sure all is well! While I am renting & am unable to have a pet of my own or care for a pet in my home, I have always been a great house guest & that would most definitely continue given that I was asked to provide care at a clients home
“Cari is absolutely amazing, and my dog, Faraday, already adores her: head tilt, tongue out, excited jumping all show up when he hears Cari's name. She's responsible, flexible, and excellent at communicating and sending pictures. I cannot praise her enough. She deserves all the props! Love her!”

I understand that each yard and house will vary in precautions that are needed.

We love Ryan and Delilah! We have been so lucky to have them as dog walkers and house sitters. Ryan sends us the best videos and he is one of the only dog walkers we have had that likes to play with our pup. They always leave our house spotless and we trust them 100%! Wonderful people, highly highly recommended!!
Rachael was great with my dog Molly! She was great with communication and flexible with times. Molly enjoyed her walks with Rachael. I would highly recommend her to take care of your dog while you are away. I knew Molly was being well cared for while we were on vacation.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Farmington. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker 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.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
