“Genuinely an incredible cat sitter. Very attentive to detail, thoughtful, and friendly. Informative and thorough Rover Cards. Went above and beyond, even offering to take our trash to curb while away. Would 100% recommend for kittens or young cats.”
“Bettina is an exceptionally wonderful pet sitter! She is warm and caring and very professional. Bettina went above and beyond at every visit to ensure our cats were happy and each received one-on-one attention. Her photos and check-in notes from each visit were also great. I was able to enjoy vacation knowing our cats were in the best hands and will absolutely book with her again!”
“Julia took such good care of Okie while we were away. She took several pictures and I could tell he was being well cared for. She was also quick to respond to my request and kind enough to do a meet and greet beforehand.”
About: I've raised and cared for my baby dog Lola also known as lolanaptimepartygirl since I was 10, pets have always played a very important role in my life. I love animals of all kinds and ages having 4 senior dogs of my own. I believe all animals deserve love and respect as they are not only friends but family, and it is truly an honor to get to exist in a world where we are able to connect with and care for such beautiful kind creatures. I work a part time job that's pretty flexible so I'm relatively available whenever. My schedule changes weekly so just let me know what you need and I'll make it work! I have a fenced in yard and gates that are available to be set up throughout the house. I am also able to crate your pet if needed.
“I always know I can depend on Brianna to take the best care of my cats. I always look forward to the summaries of her drop-ins, takes awesome (hilarious) photos, and does a professional job. 10/10 recommend”
“Excellent cat sitter! Lizzi was so kind and patient with our spicy kitty, Jade. Never pushed her and was always focused on building trust with my skittish girl. Over our long vacation, we felt comfortable and confident knowing Jade was being so well taken care of--we loved all of the updates and photos. It was so comforting to see how well our girl was being cared for. We'll absolutely rebook in the future and look forward to Jade and Lizzi (finally) becoming besties.”
“Scott goes the extra mile to make sure our skittish cat is well taken care of. She is afraid of everyone - but she has warmed up to Scott. I highly recommend Scott - he’s an excellent pet sitter!”

Also, have experience with Seniors.
“Wonderful first experience with Abbey! Great communication and my little Stella is usually so shy and barky to new people, but she warmed up instantly to Abbey on our initial meet and greet. I will definitely be booking again, thank you :)”
“This is my second time having Heather check in on my pup! She is so amazing! Always brings my pup, Kerby, little toys and treats! Kerby seems to love her too!! So thankful for her help!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Birmingham on Rover is $26.75 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,841 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Birmingham. 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Birmingham. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
