“Sarah was absolutely fantastic. My dog is extremely shy and she took the time to get to know Weller and make him as comfortable as possible. Sarah was also incredibly attentive and noticed Weller’s ear irritation which I’m so thankful for. This has been my first experience with Rover and Sarah is definitely my go to now!”
“Tatiana was the best pet sitter! This was our first time using the Rover app l, and we were nervous at first. But from my video call with Tatiana, to the meet and greet, I started to relax. Once I started getting all the videos and pictures, I knew we had found the right person. Tatiana accommodated all of our pets’ weird needs and habits, and they loved her. We will definitely book Tatiana again.”
“She was so sweet and great at communicating! Sent soo many pictures of my fur babies and helped ease my mind that they were doing good. Followed all directions and took excellent care of my babies.”
“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.”
About: I’m an educator, dad, and lifelong pet owner with more than 20 years of experience caring for animals. Pets have always been part of my family, so I understand that trusting someone with yours is a big deal. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and comfortable following established routines for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and all the little things that help a pet feel safe and comfortable. As an early childhood professor, caregiving, observation, communication, and responsibility are quite literally part of what I do every day. I’ll care for your pet with the same attention and affection I expect for my own. As a university professor, my schedule offers more flexibility than a traditional 9-to-5, particularly on certain weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m also a dad, so planning, routines, and being dependable are already a big part of my life! I’m happy to coordinate care around your pet’s normal schedule whenever possible and will always be upfront about my availability before accepting a booking. I know pets are family, and I treat both your pet and your home with that level of care and respect. I follow your instructions closely, maintain established feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines, and pay attention to changes in behavior or appetite. I’m patient about letting pets warm up to me at their own pace and prioritize safety at all times. You can also expect dependable communication and updates while you’re away. I know how reassuring it is to know that someone you love is happy, safe, and well cared for.
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.
“Alison was wonderful! Took incredible care of our pets, and was a great communicator the entire time we were away. I felt so at ease that they were doing well because of her messages, pictures, and check in reports!”
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.
About: I have taken care of dogs in my house cor the last 10 years, and have always looked after / walked my neighbor’s pets and houses anytime they have gone out of town! Pet care fits seamlessly into my flexible schedule due to the fact that I am a student at Samford University. I am in class for a maximum of 4 hours in a day, and love getting to go meet pets and spend time with them while still missing my sweet doggies back home! Obviously always making sure they have been walked, fed, and have plenty water. Pets keep a household running, and taking care of them is such a joy and just brighten my day I would do anything they need.
About: I’m a pediatric nurse and lifelong animal lover who understands the importance of being dependable, attentive, and patient. I have experience caring for dogs and am comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and following specific routines and instructions. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, love, and care while you’re away. I work as a pediatric nurse, so my schedule varies throughout the week and gives me availability on many weekdays and weekends. On my days off, I have plenty of time to dedicate to walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and keeping your pet company. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m very attentive to changes in behavior and will carefully follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and household instructions you provide. I respect each pet’s individual routine and personality and will make sure they receive safe, loving, and dependable care in their own environment.
“Catherine has been amazing with my dog!! I highly recommend her for this service! She is super professional, and I can tell that she has a genuine love of animals!”
“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’ve taken care of dogs, cats and everything between. I’ve had a lot of experience with senior pet care. Ultimately I’m happy to make your pet feel at home, in routine, and loved while you’re away! I’m a college student with all online classes so I have plenty of time to give your pets all the attention they need. Weekends are a great time for me and I know that’s a perfect time to for pet parents to be away for a little! I really value keeping your pet in their routine and in the comfort of their home. I have a dog and cat myself that are the sweetest but a smaller apartment space so limited opportunities in my home.
“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.”
About: I would love to walk/ hike with your pet, care for it at your home, or drop in to let them out. I have always loved animals ever since I was little. My first job was a pet sitting service, I was frequently asked to watch neighbors dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, etc. My friends often rely on me to take care of their animals while out of town and I have experience with older dogs as well as puppies. My dog passed away earlier this year and I won't be ready for anther dog anytime soon, but I would love to share love with your animals. I work seasonally and am currently off for my winter season. I would love to spend time with your animals either at your home or on walks/hikes! I can not watch pets in my own home but in my client's home I make sure to follow their rules and ask the important questions up front. I make sure to not leave pets alone too long and to be there for feeding times and to keep them company at night.

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!
I could not have asked for a better sitter than Leah!! One of our cats loved her immediately. The other cat is super timid and he warmed up to Leah after a couple visits. By the end of our trip he was letting her pet him, which is super rare for him! Leah gave us detailed updates and lots of pictures. I felt such peace of mind knowing she was taking care of our babies.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Mountain Brook is $19 per visit as of October 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 October 2026, there are 960 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 .
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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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 .
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.
