“Best dog sitter in town! Excellent communication. Tons of walks and pictures. Our dogs weren’t even that excited to see us at pickup time. They love staying over at Angelina’s house!”
“Thanks so much again Rahied! I love how much Jack loves staying with you! Thank you for being so awesome and sending so many pictures and video! It's so wonderful to get pictures of him when we're travelling!! You're the best!”
“Carolina was absolutely amazing with Dixie. From the moment we connected, I felt at ease knowing my dog would be in caring and capable hands. She sent regular updates, photos, and gave so much love and attention to my Dixie —it was clear she genuinely care about dogs. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dogs and a tidy space. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking with Carolina again!”
“Alison and Parmer were amazing hosts to Bo, he looked like he had so much fun with them! They kept me updated on how his stay was going and sent pictures and videos. Very nice people who obviously love dogs!”
“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!”
“We are so happy to find Irv! He understands dogs, and our sweet standard poodle came back to us even better trained! Irv was flexible in scheduling and accommodating in every way. We hope to never leave Rajah with anyone else when we travel! She has a new second home!”
“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!”
“Our three little ones had a great time at Karina's house. She sent us a lot of pictures and messages. We will definitely book her again. She and her family were awesome! Thank you Karina.”
“10/10 stars!! I would absolutely try boarding/cat sitting with Hali in the future. I was considerably nervous as it was the first time my cat would ever spend a night away from me. Hali made sure to keep me updated with plenty of pictures and videos of Wednesday during her stay! My cat is an anxious girl, so I appreciated the effort and patience Hali had with her. Hali was also very considerate about the fact that my cat gets anxious around dogs, and thankfully was able to provide Wednesday with a space of her own! Overall, I’m very happy with the quality of care Wednesday received and would definitely recommend booking with Hali.”
“Queeny always takes such great care of Kaju! We went away on a two-week trip and I don’t think Kaju wanted to leave Queeny’s - even running back to her for one last goodbye! She sends photos and status updates on any new friends he has made during his stay. I know I can trust her to take great care of Kaju and I will always recommend her!! Your pup will be in great hands 😊”
“Amazing communication and care of our dog! We got photos and videos daily and she had so much fun. She loved playing with their dog Mun and was sad to leave. They even taught her some tricks. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a rover.”
“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 !!!!”
“Meredith was super kind, lovely and made my little Bichon Frisé felt totally at home. She updated me with videos and pictures constantly even describing how my little one was feeling each day. Definitely I’ll book Meredith again, she is the best!”
“Melissa was amazing and took such good care of our dog when we were on vacation. This was our first time leaving him for a long period of time but I felt so comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Great communication and he seemed like he had fun! Definitely recommend”
“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.”
About: Looking for a safe, loving, and playful place for your pup while you’re at work or running errands, or holiday? We only host a maximum of 2 dogs at a time, which means your fur baby will get personal attention, care, and love, not a crowded daycare vibe. Your pup will also have the best playmate, our 1.5-year-old Husky, Chabella, who is full of energy, super friendly, and always ready for a game of chase or tug. Dogs love her, and she’ll make sure your dog feels like part of the pack from the very first sniff! I work remotely, and my wife works hybrid, so there’s always someone home to keep an eye on the pups. We truly see our dog as our baby, and we’ll treat yours with the same respect, love, and care. What sets us apart: Small group (max 2 dogs) = more love & attention Built-in furry friend (Chabella the Husky!) Flexible drop-off & pick-up times. If you’re looking for a home away from home where your pup will be safe, loved, and entertained – we’d love to welcome them into our pack! I work remotely and my wife works hybrid, so we have the time and flexibility to help with your dogs. We can also do boardings while you are out of town. We have a fenced yard and a playful husky still a puppy of 2 years old full of energy and in need of more friends!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Birmingham
Erica was absolutely phenomenal! She took care of our sweet girl as she was her own, was wonderful with all the medications, dietary/feeding sensitivities, sent updates as well as pictures throughout our 12 day trip. Lulu always appeared very comfortable, happy and was given plenty of snuggles as well as TLC. Highly recommend!
My experience was awesome. This was my first time using Rover and Sogol v made this the best experience ever. She was friendly, showed my pup and myself love. I felt so comfortable because she went above and beyond with her selfless personality. She sent pictures and communicated with me daily. I would recommend her to anyone looking to use this service. You can feel the love she has for animals and people. I can't thank her enough and will use her again.
Shannon was so kind and friendly! She shared photos of my dog and even had fun toys for her to enjoy that she hadn’t tried before, as well as enjoyed her fenced in yard. This was my first time using Rover and after a meet and greet, it put my mind at rest. Rhubarb had a great time away during the 4th of July! Thank you so much, Shannon!

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.
