“Anabel was absolutely amazing with Cookie! She was reliable, caring, and treated Cookie as if she were her own. Throughout my trip, Anabel provided regular updates, which gave me great peace of mind and reassurance that Cookie was in safe and loving hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after her. I would highly recommend Anabel to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
About: We both grew up with pet dogs, from a King Charles spaniel to a German Shepherd. We now have our little shih tzu (Archie) who we have brought up since a puppy. Our family & friends have relied on us to look after their dogs and we love having little furry friends around! As at least one of us always works from home, we can look after and/or walk dogs throughout the week. We walk Archie 2-3 times a day, including trips to local parks with lots of running space to play. We have a fenced courtyard for the dog(s) to play and space around the flat for them to relax. Our place is already safe for dogs as we have a curious little shih tzu living with us.
“Greta and her family were absolutely AMAZING with our border collie Monty! He was so happy and settled with them for the 10 days whilst we were away! This is the first time that we were unable to leave Monty with a family member due to everyone attending a wedding abroad in America, so we were nervous to do so. But the process of getting to know Greta and her family in the lead up to leaving Monty was such a pleasure! They took careful time to learn so much about Monty, he was so loved whilst with them, we were supplied with daily updates, photos and videos which meant we were constantly informed of Monty's adventures. The family matched his energy perfectly - it was almost as if he didn't want to leave and that is a testament to the families care and kindness! I could not recommend Greta enough and would certainly leave Monty with Greta again - THANK YOU!”
“Ruby was able to accommodate Buddy at short notice and happy to do a quick meet and greet too. Ruby was keen to meet his needs. Buddy received a lot of care and cuddles! I would definitely book with her again.”
“So happy I chose Lee and milka to look after our puppy. She had the time of her life and has slept since she came home. Loved the photos and videos we were sent every single day - a very nice touch and put my mind at ease. Thank you so much x”
About: I own a small dog in China. I am good at getting along with dogs. I have more than 5 years of experience in raising dogs. As I am now working in the UK, I miss my dog very much, so I hope to relieve the missing by taking care of other dogs. I now work remotely and have a lot of time to spend with and take care of your dog. I would love to come to your house and take care of your dog while you are away. I am familiar with my dogs' dietary restrictions and health problem. I will pay attention to them when I walk the dog. Above all, I will take your advice to heart.
“Quiayna was amazing from the get go, arranged a meet and greet before booking. Took a real interest in Bruce and his routine, likes dislikes ect. Made Bruce feel extremely welcome and kept us updated regularly. I felt very comfortable leaving Bruce in Quiayna’s care and we look forward to his next visit. Thank you very much. Highly recommended :)”
“Irem was fantastic with my GSP Lyra. She was very professional and I was super comfortable knowing Irem was going to exercise her enough to tire her out and allow her to feel at home. I would certainly use Irem again and would recommend her to other owners :)”
“It was the 1st time we left the dogs overnite and they came back happy and contented. The photos and videos where reassuring they were having a good time. Thankyou for the time and care you have showed them. Will definatlely book again 😃😃”
“My dog had the most wonderful time with Pavithra and her dog. It was wonderful to see how well looked after and outdoor fun he had. To be honest, I think he was a bit disappointed to leave when I collected him! Clear, communicative, and so helpful! I'm very grateful and can definitely recommend!”
About: I have looked after my mums dog numerous times and I love animals so much. I don’t have my own dog but I do know how to make a dog happy Hey I’m a full time ballet dancer and I go to work at 10:00 and usually come home at around 6:30pm. I have breaks so could home in between rehearsals if needed. When it’s a show week I probably wouldn’t be able to dog sit. As I finish very late I live in a ground floor flat with a balcony and easy access to the outside. It’s a comfy flat and I would look after your pet well
“Paul took such good care of our boy Eddie. He came home happy, healthy and looking well rested. His dog, Scotty is such a lovely, calm presence, fully balances Eddie out, who's always been a bit more on the intense side. We received plenty of updates so we could relax whilst away. Thank you Paul and Scotty taking such good care of Eddie x Until next time!”
“Ella watched my chow chow for a one off night when I had to work, and hadn’t met her before - a daunting task! She went above and beyond to make sure my doggie was well-taken care of, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the service. Will definitely be a repeat customer, wish I could put more than 5 stars! :)”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have lots of experience caring for pets, including having my own. I understand that every pet is different, so I always make sure they feel comfortable, happy and loved. I’m caring, patient and reliable, and I’ll treat your pet just like my own—with plenty of attention, cuddles, playtime and care. I work mostly from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility during the day to care for pets and give them the attention they need. I’m able to fit walks, feeding, playtime, and regular breaks into my daily routine, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s usual schedule and routine. I live in a house with a secure, fenced garden, giving pets a safe space to enjoy some fresh air and play outside. I also have a crate available if needed and if the pet is already comfortable with crate training.
“Another great stay for our pup with Anthony. Our dog went running up to him and definitely had a great time. Anthony accommodated a last minute change to our plans and made the whole day so easy. Will definitely be booking again.”
About: I’ve helped my mother look after hundreds of different type, sizes and bread of dogs for about 4 years now and I’ve moved into my own home where I would love to look after little fur babies myself as I love doggies 🥰 I’m available for boarding throughout the whole of the week and can’t wait to play and look after all the fur babies and to send pup updates regularly ❤️ I have a good sized fenced off garden, we have 2 children aged 6 and 7 who are amazing with dogs as they have always grew up around different dogs and they love to play, fuss and help walk the dogs. If the owners prefer and provide this we don’t mind crating the dogs if that’s what they are used to.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats since childhood, with over 21 years of experience. I also volunteered in animal shelters, looking after pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior cats. Friends, neighbours and families have always relied on me to feed, walk, groom and comfort their pets. I treat every animal with patience, love and attention, as if they were my own. I have a flexible routine that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I enjoy daily walks and spending time outdoors, so caring for pets naturally fits into my lifestyle. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting during weekdays and weekends. Pets in my care are always treated with patience, love and attention. I make sure they are safe, well-fed and comfortable in their home environment. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully and always respect each pet’s unique needs, whether it’s playtime, rest, or extra cuddles.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Birmingham is £31

Summer very kindly looked after Belle for me overnight whilst I was visiting Birmingham for a conference, and made sure she was completely comfortable during her stay, even when Belle was unfortunately slightly ill. Belle came back happy and content, and I would happily recommend Summer if back in this neck of the woods. Much appreciated!

Yes, absolutely! Many sitters on Rover are experienced in caring for multiple pets simultaneously, whether you have a pack of dogs, a clowder of cats, or a mix of both.
Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Birmingham pet parents with similar pet households.
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 poo breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've 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're 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'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer 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-in visits, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12.00 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 booking protection will kick in. This means you'll get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
