“Sarah is incredible! She is always on time and patient with my shy pup. She also helped me after a last minute flight cancellation and watched my dog for an additional day. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
About: I’ve been walking dogs and pet sitting for years, caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior companion, I treat every pet like family. I’m always up for a long walk, playtime, or just hanging out with your pet while you’re away. I’ll treat them like my own and make sure they feel happy and loved. I currently work from home and set my own schedule, so I’m generally free during the weekday and in the evenings. I also have a lot of free time on the weekends and would love to look after your furry friends! When I’m pet sitting in someone’s home, I treat it like my own, keeping it clean and cozy for your pets. I’ll care for your pets like they’re my own, making sure they’re safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. You can count on me to keep things running smoothly and give them all the love and attention they need.
“Amy did such. wonderful job. Leaving your pet with someone you don’t know can be stressful but Amy is great at what she does and will take amazing care of your furry friend!!”
About: As a longtime dog owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your pet. I’ve spent the past 8 years caring for my own dog through different stages of life and am very comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, medications, special diets, senior dogs, and pets who may need a little extra patience or attention. I’m also a certified Physician Assistant, so being dependable, attentive to detail, and calm in unexpected situations comes naturally to me. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions and will treat your pet’s routine as carefully as I would my own. I also know how reassuring updates can be when you’re away, so you can expect plenty of communication and photos! I currently have a very flexible schedule while transitioning into my first position as a Physician Assistant, which gives me plenty of availability for weekday and weekend walks and drop-in visits. I’m happy to help with both occasional care and a consistent schedule for families who need recurring visits. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and entering your home. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and care instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. I’m attentive to changes in behavior or wellbeing and will keep you updated with photos and messages during each visit. I’m also respectful of your home and will always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other safety measures are secure before I leave.
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 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.
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 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. I am available to sit weekends and after 7 pm on weekdays. Can do daytime feedings or walks 2 or 3 times a day. I’m currently working full-time at UAB Hospital (3 12 hr shifts/week). 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. 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 walks, please let me know an estimated average walk time for your pet so that they are comfortable and happy!
About: My love for dogs started at age 7 when I got my first dog, and I've never looked back. Growing up with dogs gave me hands on experience through every stage of life, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. That lifelong bond has also given me a natural understanding of dog behavior, which helps me keep every pet calm, happy, and well cared for. I have open availability, making pet care a natural and flexible part of my everyday routine. Your pet will always be my priority. Feel free to message me with any questions! Your pet's well being is my top priority. Every visit includes fresh food, clean water, plenty of exercise, and playtime tailored to your pet's personality and energy level. I treat every animal like my own.

About: I have taken care of dogs and owned them myself for over 10 years. I love them so much and would love the opportunity to love on your sweet babies! I am a dog mom to a lab and goldendoodle with lots of experience. I work remote so I am able to make drop in visits in the mornings, at lunch or dinner time. I can do walks or just let outs as desired. I can take your dog for a walk, play with them indoors or what ever accommodates them best. I don’t offer services in my home only drop ins.
About: I have taken care of my own dogs all of my life and began pet sitting for neighbors and friends when I was 12. My dogs are my favorite things in the world and I am very protective over them so I understand how big of a responsibility it is to have someone trust me with their dogs! I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule and can make morning and trips at lunch and am fully available after 5:00 on weekdays. I am fully available on weekends.

My fiancé And I love training and exercising with them every day and they push us to be the best we can be. They bring so much joy and happiness to our life. I have 5 years experience pet sitting for friends and family as well. They are the support system that told me about this app. Work from home but it’s not very demanding. Extremely flexible schedule. Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. To continue to keep your (our) fur baby safe I will keep trash cans covered or inside a latched cabinet. Move all chemicals to high shelves or behind secure doors. Keep cords, chargers, and other potentially harmful items out of reach.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mountain Brook
Sarah was wonderful! I have an 18-year-old Yorkie who requires extra care and several medications, so leaving her with someone new is never easy. Sarah was incredibly sweet, attentive, and understanding of Stella’s needs. She was great about communicating and keeping me updated throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’m so grateful to have found someone I feel comfortable trusting with my little girl! I would absolutely recommend her! ❤️
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!
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.

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.

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.
