“Our fist time using a sitter for our 5 year old Labrador. Anthony was excellent and as the other reviews have said, provided regular updates which was very reassuring to us. We would definitely use Anthony again a would highly recommend to others ! 👍🏼🐾”
“We needed last minute care for our Lurcher Lenny and Alasdair and family were great. We had a relaxed meet and greet and our dog was more than happy to return to the house for drop off. The house and garden are really spacious and we had regular updates from Alasdair. They asked all the important questions about Lenny’s care and they are clearly knowledgable about dogs. It sounds like Lenny really enjoyed spending time with their two huskies. Thank you!”
“Lyndsay and Niall were absolutely wonderful. This was the first time my dog Bella had stayed with someone I didn't know, so initially I was quite anxious on my part. But after meeting them both, I was then more than happy for Bella to be looked after there. They are both very lovely and reasurring people. As the holiday went on I received regular updates on how Bella was doing, and received lots of photos of her. All my worries were lifted, clearly she was having just as much of a good time as me. Almost like her own little holiday. I honestly can't thank Lyndsay and Niall enough for how amazingly they looked after my fur child. I will definitely be booking with them whenever I go away again. I really couldn't recommend them enough!”
“Rufus remained calm and content during the stay with Liliana, and she was regularly providing updates 2 times a day. I have never seen Rufus this happy with someone else than family, it was a perfect home away from home for him and 16 days seemed like a dream come true, I was so assured that he is in good hands that my trip was relaxed and productive. I would not hesitate to recommend Liliana or to rebook Rufus many times with her. Highly recommended!”
“Absolutely lovely lady, I would definitely recommend my dog was well looked after and very happy. My dog had lots of play time and got on well with Charlotte's dog, again thank you so much I will definitely be back xxx”
“Totally would recommend.Frantzeska was a very nice host with Canela. She was very kind and attentive with us. We received the best updates and photos. Canela was happy and well taken care of. Thank you so much!!🥰”
“Thank you so much Laura for a wonderful stay for our dogs. They have clearly been really well looked after and the returned to us happy and healthy. I think they’d like to stay again!”
“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.”
“Hugo had his first overnight stay with Hannah and loved it. He is always cared for so well and we are very grateful to Hannah for all that she does for him when he is with her. Thank you so much. We will definitely see you again soon!”
“We had such a lovely experience. Our dog stayed with her for two weeks and came home happy, settled and clearly very well looked after. She sent us regular updates, photos and videos every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Millie really enjoyed her stay and was treated like one of the family. We’re so pleased with the care and service and would happily recommend her!”
About: Together with my partner Josh, we have experience totaling over 15 years. Most recently with our beautiful rescue dorkie Nissa, who sadly passed this year at age 13. Nissa's journey was a long one full of love, cuddles, international travel, separation anxiety, and complex treatment for Cushing's syndrome, heartworm, and other medical issues. We had so many great dog sitters over the years and we want to pay it forward with competitive rates and top quality care. Additionally, we have 5+ years experience with large family dogs, including Old English Sheepdogs and rescue greyhounds. We have a car and easy access to parks, including large parks for dogs who need longer walks. Your dog will be absolute pampered and spoiled rotten with us! I work from home Monday to Friday, and my job is very flexible so I am able to accommodate walks and handovers feasibly. Josh is home on evenings and weekends too so they will have plenty of love and attention. We have a secure, fenced garden with plenty of grass for potty time. In our local area, there are a range of parks and walks for dogs of all energy levels too. We have plenty of beds and soft places for your dog to rest, puzzles, toys and more.
“Cooper loved his week with Summer and was sad to leave! We're grateful that Summer waa able to welcome Cooper in to her home and look after him so well. He's settled right back in at home which reassured us he's had a lovely time. We'd definitely ask Summer to have him again - thank you!”
“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!”
“Archie had a great time with Yin and her family. Yin shared lots of photo and video updates where Archie looked very happy and settled in her home with a garden for him to play in. Thank you for taking such great care of Archie!”
“Oksana did a lovely job taking care of Holly for me. I could tell from her photo updates Holly was looking very happy and relaxed. Oksana was great in communications and even told me not to worry and to drive safe when I was 35 mins late picking Holly up (due to being stuck behind an accident in traffic). I really appreciate your help - thank you!”
“This is the second time I've asked Gina to take care of my dog, but the first time that he has stayed overnight. Gina was splendid. My dog seemed very comfortable and happy, which is very reassuring. I will definitely ask her to take care of him again.”
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember, and I’m also a proud dog owner myself. Taking care of dogs has always been something I genuinely enjoy — spending time with them, going for walks, playing together and simply keeping them company is something that helps me relax and makes me happy. For the past 5 years, I’ve been pet sitting for dogs and other pets around Birmingham, gaining experience with different breeds, personalities and routines. I understand that every dog is different, and I always try to make sure they feel safe, comfortable and cared for while they’re away from their owners. I’ve recently decided to make my Rover profile more active, as I’d love to spend more time with dogs and help other pet owners feel confident that their pets are in good hands. 🐶❤️ After dropping my daughter off at school each morning, I’m available throughout the day and have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. Pet sitting and dog walking are my main activities during the day, so I can be flexible with my schedule and give each pet the attention, care and companionship they need. I live in a house with a secure, fully fenced garden, giving dogs a safe and enclosed outdoor space to enjoy. However, I usually care for dogs inside my home, where they can feel comfortable, relaxed and part of the family. I always follow each pet’s usual routine and any specific instructions from their owner, including feeding, walks, playtime and other individual needs. I understand how important it is to feel confident when leaving your pet with someone, so I take their safety and wellbeing very seriously. As a dog owner myself, I treat every dog in my care with the same love, patience and attention I would want for my own. 🐾
“Brilliant experience with Emily. We left our little boy Mylo for the first time. Emily was great. He settled down with her very quickly. Had a great nights sleep with no issue. We will definitely be using her again and will make recommendations to friends. Thank you Emily (from Mylo).”

Wivi and Alex are, without question, the best dog sitters I’ve ever had. Kobes is a large, high-energy breed who needs someone confident, experienced and genuinely skilled with bigger dogs and he certainly doesn’t take to just anyone. They are absolutely brilliant with him, and I trust them completely. I visited several potential sitters before finding them, and Wivi and Alex were head and shoulders above everyone else I met. Kobes loves spending time with them, and it’s clear they understand his personality and know exactly how to manage him. On top of that, they’re both genuinely lovely people. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
Deechen was amazing with my kitten who I was so scared of leaving alone with someone i didn’t know for the first time ever. She reassured me that mylo was doing good and i didn’t have to worry about him at all on my holiday. She sent lots of pictures and videos to keep me updated and treated mylo so well. She is so kind and caring i recommend booking with her. I could tell that mylo was safe and happy to stay at her apartment.
Barley had the best time and was in very good hands . He was exceptional well cared for during our trip away. Daily updates with pictures and videos kept us in the loop but also the knowledge he was having fun too. Thank you both - Barley loved his time with you (;-)))
We had such a lovely experience. Our dog stayed with her for two weeks and came home happy, settled and clearly very well looked after. She sent us regular updates, photos and videos every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Millie really enjoyed her stay and was treated like one of the family. We’re so pleased with the care and service and would happily recommend her!
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Bailey was so well looked after and clearly had a lovely time. The communication was excellent throughout, and we felt completely reassured knowing she was in such caring and capable hands. It was obvious that Frantzeska genuinely love dogs and treated Bailey like one of their own. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog, which says it all! We would happily recommend them and will definitely be booking again.
Thank you so much, Lindsay and Niall, for taking such good care of Beau! He clearly had an absolutely brilliant time. He’s been fast asleep for the last couple of hours since we got home — completely knackered from all the fun and excitement! 😂 It’s lovely knowing he’s been so well looked after and has enjoyed himself so much. Thanks again — I really appreciate it! 🐾❤️

We left our 2 fussy cats with Yuhe for just over 2 weeks and she took amazing care of them. They were calm and settled with her throughout their stay which gave us great piece of mind. She was also able to administer oral medicine daily to our mildy tempered cat. We recieved regular updates and we were even able to video call them, which was really appreciated :) We would definitely use Yuhe again and would recommend her to other pet parents.

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 occured. 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.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.

Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
