“Hali was amazing with my dog! I felt very comfortable leaving him in great hands, and Hali was sure to provide lots of updates and pictures. My dog made fast friends with her pups and came home absolutely exhausted so I know he got in lots of playtime and will be excited to go back!”
“Irv is the greatest thing to happen to us. We have had a crazy amount of travel and know that our bernedoodle is in great hands with Irv and his family. After our last trip I wasn’t sure Solo would want to come home with us.”
“Blue had a great stay at Vicki and William’s house! They are both so kind and I felt no worries at all when leaving him in their care. The amount of communication, updates, and photos are amazing and are so helpful when I miss my pup. Their dog Bentley is also very sweet so I’m glad Blue has a friend!”
“Karina was so great with our little dog. She took care of him so well and we felt safe that he was in good hands. We got photos, our dog looked very happy. Highly recommended!”
“Queeny provided a safe and welcoming home away from home for our two dogs. She sent us photos or videos every day to show that the dogs were healthy and happy, and we could tell that the dogs were stress-free when we came to collect them. We like the fact that there was an enclosed yard for them to run in, and that they were the only dogs in the home. We will definitely use Queeny again!”
“Kayla was so amazing with our cat! she communicates very quickly and sends lots of updates :) I felt so at ease and safe leaving our little kitty with her ❤️ Will def be rebooking in the future !!!!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my 9-month-old puppy! She was absolutely amazing—so kind, patient, and clearly experienced with young dogs. I got regular updates and pictures, which helped me feel totally at ease while I was away. My pup came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I could tell she truly treated her like one of her own. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Maritza & Daniel did a wonderful job taking care of our Border Collie, Kaylee, while we were out of town for a few days. The updates and pictures they sent kept us informed as to how Kaylee was settling in and showed how happy she was to become a regular part of their day!”
About: I have over 30 years of combined experience caring for pets. Over the years, I’ve lovingly owned three toy poodles, two cats, and a doxie Terrier mix. My little one also enjoys spending time with furry friends and learning how to be gentle and caring with animals. While I plan to welcome another dog into our family in the future, for now I’m excited to help care for and love on other families’ pets as if they were my own. I have a very flexible schedule and the ability to provide plenty of attention, care, and companionship for your pet. I’m available on weekends and two flexible remote-work weekdays. This gives me the ability to accommodate walks, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and consistent supervision throughout the day. I have a front and backyard, including a partially fenced backyard area, with plenty of open green space nearby for safe walks and outdoor time. My neighborhood is extremely pet-friendly and surrounded by grassy areas, and a nearby park perfect for walks, fresh air, and new sights and smells to keep your pup happy and engaged. There are always friendly neighbors and fellow dog walkers out and about, making the environment feel welcoming and social for pets. Your dog will receive lots of love, attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I understand how important routines, patience, and comfort are when caring for someone else’s furry family member, and I strive to create a calm, safe, and cozy environment where pets can feel right at home. Whether your dog loves playtime, cuddles on the couch, relaxing walks, or simply having company nearby, I’m happy to accommodate their personality and needs.
“Abby did a great job taking care of my german shepherd/mastiff. He felt comfortable, enjoyed exploring their house and backyard! He got to go on walks and get attention while we were out of town for the weekend.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes and ages since I was young. Friends, family and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, cuddle and care for their pets like they’re my own. I’m patient, attentive and experienced with puppies, senior dogs and pets who need a little extra comfort and reassurance. Your pet’s safety, happiness and routine will always be my top priorities. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy making time for pet care throughout the week. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-ins, overnight care or extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to help provide a calm, loving and reliable environment. I understand how important consistency and communication are, and I’ll always keep you updated while your pet is in my care. I provide a safe, calm and loving environment where dogs are treated like family. I prioritize trust, communication, clean spaces and attentive care so pets feel secure, comfortable and happy while you’re away.
“Heidi was a fantastic sitter!! We could tell our dog had a great time with her :) and she sent so many great pictures every day so we always knew he was doing well. She was so kind, patient, and easy-going and really made us feel so at ease while we were away!”
“Enaes did a fantastic job handling my very nervous pooch and was very flexible when I was stuck out of town due to the weather. She provided updates and I felt comfortable having Pheo in her care.”
“Chris was great! On time, friendly, and Bertie was happy as a clam when I got home. Event with a short notice, communication was clear and I was able to leave my home without worry. Thanks Chris!”
“Cody was so great with our golden retriever, Snoop! His dog seemed to get along well with Snoop and it was great to know he was in a good environment being well taken care of!”

Dianne and Judi went above and beyond in taking care of my dog, Saffron, so much so that I feel the urge to book another trip somewhere just so I can entrust her to their care once more. She spent 8 days with them while I was away on a camping trip. Having spent one night with them before, Saffron was comfortable with them immediately and didn't utter a peep after I left. Dianne updated me daily on how Saffron was doing and sent pictures and videos. They walked her several times a day, played with her, created a "gravy" for her dry kibble by mixing it with water, had her perform her tricks for them in exchange for treats, and most importantly, they spent time snuggling with her on the couch and let her sleep with them each night. Knowing that she's mischievous and has a penchant for getting into things, one of them always kept a close eye on her, and she was never left alone; when they say "24/7 care," they truly mean it! Additionally, she celebrated her birthday with them while she was in their home, and they took care to mold her food into special birthday shapes. Moreover, they also ordered her a special birthday dress and crown which they let her wear home, which astounded and touched me deeply. I truly believe they love and care for her just as much as I do. The entire time I was away, I felt at ease knowing Saffron was in more than capable hands. Bringing her home with me was bittersweet, as I could tell they were reluctant to bid her farewell, and I knew she'd miss them too. I am extremely picky regarding to whom I'll entrust my dog, but I wholeheartedly recommend Dianne and Judi. They are worth the round-trip 1 1/2-hour drive for me. If you want dedicated, loving, hands-on care for your pet, you want Dianne and Judi.
Anna was a wonderful pet sitter. Ozzy stayed with her for the first time for 3 days and he truly didn’t want to leave. He genuinely missed Anna and her dog when we took him home. She sent multiple pictures each day so that I could see how content he was. I will definitely be booking Anna again and highly recommend her.
Christina and her family were the perfect fit for my frenchie Coco. They went above and beyond to make her part of their family and Coco had the best time. Christina sent lots of photos and updates and was overall great with communication! We are so happy to have found such a reliable and great sitter for our girl.
Heidi once again was an absolutely wonderful caretaker for our sweet dog while we were away! She’s so thorough and sends so many updates. Copper always looks so so happy there! So grateful for Heidi and all her help with Copper, we always know she’s in the best care at Heidi’s!
Casey is an amazing dog boarder! She went above and beyond by walking my dog even more than I do at home. I loved receiving the photo updates throughout the stay—it really gave me peace of mind knowing my pup was happy and well cared for. Her house is warm and cozy, and my dog clearly felt right at home. I highly recommend Casey and would absolutely book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Birmingham on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,640 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Birmingham. About 93% of Birmingham sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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 pet, 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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
