“So glad Sarah was available for my last minute holiday request! She spent time hanging out with my cats and making them comfortable, giving me full updates with lots of pictures! I’m very grateful!”

“Devin was wonderful! Excellent communication and fast response when I had questions! She took charge and got everything done at no hassle to me while I was away! I definitely want to use her again!!”
“Krisie is always responsive when I request a drop-in even when it is last minute. She always takes good care of my cat even though he is a bit shy until he gets to know you, Krisie always makes an attempt to coax him out to say hello.”
“Megan is a wonderful cat sitter! I loved the daily pictures she sent of my kitties. They were all well cared for and my extremely shy cat even warmed up to Megan. She’s trustworthy, which is important to me. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Erika took really good care of my cat over the Holiday weekend. She always provided updates and photos as well as communicated well with me even though I requested some things last minute. Thank you Erika!”
About: Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to feed, walk, and entertain their pets for several years. I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I’m a graduate student at UAB and my schedule has the opportunity to be flexible, so I am available for early mornings, late afternoon, and evening walks and check-ins during the week. On the weekends, I have full availability for whatever you and your pet need! I treat every pet like it’s my own- I shower them with love and affection, give lots of treats, and can play all day, regardless of your pet’s age, personality, or activity level.
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was ten when I got my first dog! I would also take care of my neighbors and friends dogs when they would leave for vacations on my free time. Just a college student looking to love on your pets. Pretty open schedule. Working part time right now but will always have time to take care of your animals! I live in a condo so I do have small backyard but I will take them on walks as many times as needed. I love taking my dog to the dog park so she can socialize with other dogs so I will take along the dogs I dog sit with us to let them play. I am currently working part time right now and have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I do have a dog of my own and always make sure she is getting her energy out. If your pet loves hiking or long walks then I am your girl. I have my own dog to be able to be your dogs companion along with myself. I do 4 walks a day to make sure they can go potty and get some energy out.
“Kaitlyn is not only timely but she’s communicative, kind, and just has such a genuine love for animals! She has been checking in on my two foster puppies and it has truly been such a relief for me! Couldn’t recommend her more ❤️”
About: I have cared for a variety of animals and am comfortable caring for any pet (including exotic or uncommon), any age, any size, any level of care, and any personality! I have past experience caring for senior animals (including dogs, cats, and horses) as well as animals under age 1 (including dogs and cats). I often volunteer at the Birmingham Humane Society! Although I am not offering training services, I have experience training and am willing to uphold any training regimen. I have experience shadowing a household pet veterinarian as well as an equine veterinarian. I also have farm animal care experience. I love playtime and am very attentive! I am very excited to care for your pet! I am available to sit weekends and after 7 pm on weekdays. I can do daytime feedings or walks 2 or 3 times a day. I am available for boarding weekends and weekdays after 7 pm. My apartment is the perfect environment for boarding! I am available for boarding some weekdays all day, but I will need notice 5 days and to coordinate in advance for boarding on a weekday before 7 pm due to shifting schedule days. For walks, let me know an estimated average walk time for your pet so that they are comfortable and happy! For sitting, I will clean any pet messes if needed. Require a decently clean home and closer distance if overnight sitting is needed. Please, let me know of any concerns ahead of time. For boarding, I am in a one bedroom apartment with no other pets and decent play space. I have no toys, litter boxes, or cat trees so will need to provide their own. I live next to a large unfenced park. The apartment is clean and tidy and safe for pets. The apartment building also has a pet bathing station available if your pet needs cleaning. If you are concerned with a public bathing station, I am perfectly comfortable bathing your pet in the bath in my apartment. Please, let me know of any health or hygiene issues beforehand. Medications/allergies/health concerns are extremely important to me.
“Jody treated my two kitties like they were her own! She gave such detailed updates each day and so many cute photos - it made it so much easier to be away knowing my cats were in such good hands! I would absolutely recommend Jody to anyone & hope I can use her again in the future!”
“She was very sweet and understanding to a mishap and change of plans! She communicated quickly and effectively both when booking and when acting on services! You can tell she’s truly an animal lover and will care for your babies like her own!”
“Truett loves Catherine! She was very responsive, timely, and loved on him during drop ins ! She came in when we lost our reoccurring sitter unexpectedly and she was flexible and quick to step in. So grateful for her! 10/10!”
About: I started dog walking & house sitting for neighbors when I was around 10, and since then I’ve only continued to care for animals for whoever my “regulars” recommend me to. I have experience with anything from needy doggies to old cats needing medication. I work 40 hours a week, but I am happy to check on pets before & after the work day or on weekends when I’m around! When I’m home with pets, I love to give them pets, play, and go on walks, depending on their needs. I am an animal LOVER, so they will not miss out on any attention while you’re away.
“Gage is so great with my pups. I feel so comfortable when I go out of town because of the peace of mind I have knowing they are in good hands. Appreciate his availability last minute this last time I needed him! I wish to use him everytime I go out of town if he is available! Can't say enough good things about him!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mountain Brook
Hannah did a great job taking care of my cats. She provided pictures and detailed updates everyday. She also gave my cats treats at every visit, which helped one of my very shy kitties to warm up to her, if even just a bit. I would definitely recommend her!
We are so excited to have Kyle as one of our sitters. He has a magic touch with the cats, particularly our baby girl who can be fearful of strangers. The fact that she ate a Churu from him is evidence! Kyle is trustworthy, consistent, communicative and conscientious. Truly a five star sitter!
Royalty was very communicative and gave good details on my cat’s wellbeing on the report card. My cat is very selective on who she likes and she warmed right up to Royalty! He also went above and beyond keeping things tidy at my house. I highly recommend him to sit for your fur baby!
Tiffany was amazing!! She treated my fur baby with so much care. My fur baby is a senior and requires specialized food and meds. She followed the instructions meticulously. She gave regular photo updates and was able to accommodate an additional visit per day. She also regularly communicated with me in addition to the Report Card.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Mountain Brook is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 948 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mountain Brook. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mountain Brook. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters 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 sitter.
