“All care requested was met with flying colors! My fur babes were in the best care so happy when I returned home like they had been on vacation too! I got photos everyday of their goofy sweet faces”
About: Hi! My name is Brandy! I have a certificate for zoo and domestic animal care from yavapai college in Arizona. I am also a dog owner of 11 years. I have certified both my dogs through the petsmart training courses. I have learned a lot through school and owning dogs of my own and have always had a passion for animals. Thanks so much for considering me for your furry babies! I am a server working part time and am looking for a way to make a little extra money on the side doing something I love! I am available for dog walking Monday-Sunday anytime before 2:30 and available Monday-Wednesday for overnights or whatever you may need as those are my days off. I will not be able to board any animals as I have a bit of a reactive border collie at my house but am available to come to your house for your needs
“This is the 2nd time Alyssah has watched Miles and we always come home to a clean home and a happy dog!! Thanks again for all your help!! We appreciate it and will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve have been around animals my whole life. I currently have two animals myself both living in the same house. They absolutely love each other. I’m currently working full-time looking to make extra cash on the weekends doing something I love which is taking care of friends and families animals I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to run around and plenty of walking area and a park that isn’t too far of a walk
“Michael was an exceptional pet and house sitter. He took wonderful care of our two dogs and our home while we were away for five nights. From the beginning, he was kind, professional, and genuinely caring. Throughout our trip, Michael provided regular updates and photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. It was clear from every message that our dogs were happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of attention and affection. He also took excellent care of our home, and everything was exactly as we left it when we returned. We could tell our dogs were well loved and cared for while we were away. Finding someone you can trust with both your pets and your home is invaluable, and Michael exceeded our expectations in every way. We would not hesitate to book with Michael again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and attentive pet sitter.”
About: I have always taken care of my dog when my family goes on vacays and also have dog sat for my neighbors and my cousin! I currently work part time so i’ll be available before/after work and on weekends as well. my shifts are typically only 4 hours so they won’t be alone for long! I always make sure they have lots of play time and make sure they are well taken care of. I love all pets like they are my own!
“Tara was very prompt with responding to messages , and kept us updated (including pics) on our pup while she was sitting for us. She has a very easy going manner, which I'm sure helps keep an anxious pup like ours calm.”
“Courtney was the perfect sitter for our 5 month old husky puppy. We knew our pup would need a lot of work and care (including medication) while we were gone for the weekend, and Courtney exceeded our expectations in every way. She was extremely communicative and constantly sent updates. Our pup absolutely loved her and was sad to see her go. We will definitely be using Courtney again!”
“She has an amazing energy and they babies were immediately drawn to her calm and composed nature. She is very loving and takes extra care to make sure they are alright.”
About: I have 6 babies of my own. I love and cherish fur babies like they are my own and I will absolutely give them all the love in the world. I work at a high school as a paraprofessional I could walk dogs after work at 4 and weekends all day long and summers I’m free all day everyday My babies sleep and go everywhere with me, as if they are human children. Any fur baby in my presence will feel nothing but love and care from me
“Where to start? Brittany just watched our Labradors overnight (multiple nights) in our home, and we could not have asked for a better caretaker! She is there for the dogs, period. She was so patient with them, followed their schedule and patterns, had fun with them and kept in touch while allowing us to enjoy our vacation as well. She was wonderful, and we’re really blessed to have met her!”
“Kathleen (Kara) to us, was absolutely fabulous. Rosie adored her and is now.looming for her. She sent photos daily. Checked in often with updates. Left my home cleaner than I left it to her. She is reliable, respectful and more important great with my Rosie! Definitely would recommend her.k”
About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a little kid. Animal care, or animals in general have always been a major passion of mine. Neighbors and family friends have consistently relied on me for pet care whenever they’re heading out of town or are just gone for the day! I do have experience with a variety of different breeds (both cat and dog!) as well as many other reptiles, fish and birds. I will always meet any and all needs that may be required for your furry or scaly friends! It is my top priority to make sure your pets are safe, happy and well taken care of whenever needed 🙂! I am currently working part time while I am in school so my availability is pretty flexible 🤸! I am not available for boarding at the moment, however, I am open consistently throughout the week 😆! While in your home, I will make sure to adhere to and respect all rules and expectations given to me regarding your pets specific care as well as general house rules! Tell me to fly and I will 🚀, especially since you are trusting and welcoming me into your space to care for your babies! 🐾
About: From fitness to a casual stroll,I adjust to your fur babies needs. I am a Central Florida Native so the heat and humidity is "home" for me and walking dogs is my zen space. I am fluid because of my private yoga classes. So I am free most mornings and evenings as well as weekends. I worked in the Theme Parks for over 27 years so I no longer have those hours. I can come to your location, I have experience with delivery services from Amazon and Ups, as well as in home yoga services so I provide the best home care with attention to your family's needs.
About: While I may not have years of experience like some, my love for animals does not fall short. I have taken care of dogs, big and small. Some with dietary restrictions and rigid feeding routines and others with a more lax regimen. I have house sat/pet sat and stayed in the owner’s home on multiple occasions. I’ve taken care of four dogs of various sizes at once, done drop-ins to feed/change water and let the puppers out for friends and family members, and I’ve also stopped by to do something as simple as a quick walk. Whatever you need, I can do it! I can assure you that I will treat your pet as my own. I currently work full time at a law firm in downtown but I live in Sanford. I have a reliable car and I don’t mind driving. I can pet sit/house sit on weekdays but I have work so it would be morning care and evening/night. I can also take a midday break if needed. I am off on the weekends so I will be able to be there full time. Depending on the owner, I have put pets into their crates when leaving the house or at night for sleeping but I have also let them roam freely, if the owner allows it.
About: I am an experienced pet walker and sitter with knowledge in dogs and cats, especially senior dogs. No matter what, I believe that all animals deserve respect and care, in any circumstance. I currently have open availability. I would gladly go take care of any pet. Any day or time. I am also happy to do holidays. I like to keep pets I'm looking after close enough to me that I can readily get to them. Just in case they need help.
About: I adore all animals and will treat your baby like they are my own! I will not only provide the necessary care but will go above and beyond to make sure they are having fun and are comfortable. I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have taken care of them since I was very young. Pets are just as important to me as any other member of our family and your pet will be loved and taken care of! We will go on long walks and play with all the toys, I will take into account any accommodations necessary or that you make and request for your babies! Your baby is in good hands and will be taken care of! Much love, Christine I currently work a flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets and ensure the proper time spent with them. I will take care of your pets like they are my own. I have two loving dogs at home who are well taken care of and loved on.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,199 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Farmton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Farmton walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Farmton maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Farmton 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!
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.
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
