“Glenda was fantastic, our nervous cat was very comfortable with her, she sent pictures and checked in with us at least once a day and is a lovely person. Excellent communication and care.”
“Having never used a sitter service before, Julie put us at ease with the whole thing. We were kept informed of how our cat was doing every day, which meant we were free to enjoy our holiday worry free. Thank you Julie! We would definitely recommend and will 100% be contacting you when we next need a sitter. 😊”
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I was raised with two Old English Sheepdogs, so I’m very comfortable with larger breeds as well as the daily responsibilities that come with caring for pets, including walks, feeding, playtime, grooming, and giving them lots of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. I work Monday to Thursday, 9-5, in Birmingham city centre, so I’m usually most available for pet sitting on Fridays and weekends. I may also be available for weekday evening visits depending on location. I’m happy to offer reliable visits, feeding, walks, playtime, and company, and I’ll always make sure your pet receives the time, care, and attention they need. I live in a clean, well cared for home, and have a large park nearby, which is ideal for dog walks and outdoor time. I always aim to provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for pets in my care, while following their usual routine as closely as possible. I’m also very respectful when caring for pets in other people’s homes and would always treat your home, and your pet, with care and consideration.
About: I work full time and can offer visits in the morning and evening throughout the week and Monday/Tuesday throughout the day. Please do contact me if you would like to discuss times, I’d love to hear from you. I like to meet cat parents prior to the sitting commencing so that I can have a complete understanding about your cat’s needs. My visits are usually 30 minutes but I’m happy to negotiate this if your cat(s) need longer. This includes feeding/ litter tray clean/ play and fuss time. I also send updates of my visits to you (photos and videos) I’m also happy to pick up post, water plants, open curtains.
“Ka Man was an excellent cat sitter and I will definitely be using her again. She made sure my boys were well looked after and played with them to keep them company as well. 10/10 for communication, I loved getting photos of my boys! Would highly recommend.”
“Lucy is a wonderful person, she took care of my cat while I was out of the country. It was the best choice I could have made, she was so loving and caring with my cat that I think I would have kept her forever ☺️🥰 I will definitely come back to her whenever I want to leave my cat in very good hands. Plus she was never late or canceled a visit day. She was always there as we had planned together. Thank you Lucy, you already know that Shadow loves you and I know that you love him too. 🥰🌹🌹🌹”
“Paige was wonderful. She was so kind and caring and helped out last minute for daily visits when I was recovering from an operation. She played with my dog and took great care of her. You can see she has a great love of dogs and takes brilliant care of them. Paige was great at communication and timekeeping. Would highly recommended.”
About: I’ve been lucky enough to live with pets for the majority of my life including my family’s dogs Gizmo & Roland, a quirky pair. I’ve also helped out looking after my parents’ many foster dogs of all sizes & ages over the years which I have learned a lot from :) I’m currently working part time, and would love to hang out with pets in my free time. At the moment Thursday & Friday mornings are best for me! I’m always attentive & making sure your pets are having a good time! I’m able to drive to meet up and take pets to new & exciting places.
“Anzelika was brilliant, sent us lots of updates on our boys and they really liked her! Really appreciate how much care you took in our space, really went above and beyond. Thank you so much!”
“We can’t fault Stephanie, she was absolutely wonderful with our cat, very friendly and professional and her communication before and during the visits was great. I loved that she regularly updated us and sent us little videos of our cat happy and playing, it really put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our holiday knowing she was in very safe hands. Would definitely recommend her as a pet sitter and will be booking with her again next time we go away!”
About: I am a caring, responsible and reliable pet lover who enjoys spending time with dogs and cats. I am patient, attentive and happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding and loving care. I understand that every pet has different needs and I always make their safety and happiness my priority. I am also comfortable caring for young, senior and nervous pets. I have a flexible schedule and can arrange pet care around my daily routine. I am available for regular or occasional visits, walks and cat sitting, depending on the owner’s needs. I always put pets’ safety, comfort and wellbeing first. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep their home clean and secure, and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, care and companionship.
About: Since moving out with my partner, leaving behind my family cat (Lola, 9) and golden Lab (Riley, 5) I am missing them very much (despite seeing them weekly still). I would love to spend more time with your pet, taking them for walks, playing and cuddling on the sofa. I have experience looking after other peoples dogs of different breeds (for example staffy, cocker spaniel, mini daschund) for varying periods of time, looking after a lovely cocker spaniel in January 2026 for a week. I am able to walk any dogs whether on or off the lead if they have good recall, and able to wash/shower pets appropriately. I currently work full time - but this is split between uni and actual work days. I have uni days where I work from home all day, and never work weekends. I will care for your pet as my own, ensuring any guidance given is followed correctly to make sure each pet and their individual needs are met.
“Katherine took very good care of our cats. Communication was good and the daily photos were really good and comforting. I feel sure that, if possible, we will happily use Katherine again. Thank you very much. ”
About: I adore dogs and have a dog free house, having lost my beloved senior Staffy in 2023. I am very experienced with dogs with medical needs, senior dogs and a variety of breeds. I know how anxiety inducing it is when your beloved family member has to stay at home when you go on holiday or away for whatever reason, and can give your dog the love and care they need while you are away. I work from home on the computer and live next door to Sandwell Valley country park, so can offer 24 hour care to your dog. Walks are mornings before midday and/or evenings after 4pm, and access to the garden is at anytime. Walks can be in the quiet farmlands or the more lively park, depending on your dogs needs and preferences. The house is dog friendly and secure. The garden is completely fenced off with a 7 foot solid fence.
About: I have always had dogs so I have experience taking care of my own and other people's puppies, active and senior dogs so I can provide the best care for your furry friend. I'm currently working part-time on mixed shifts so I have plenty of time to look after your pets and take the for walks no matter how long. I have experience walking my dog up mountains so I can walk very energetic dogs. If I look after your pet at your home I will discuss your pets needs with you to ensure your pet gets the best treatment

Carol was absolutely brilliant with our 3 cats! We went on holiday for 10 days and Carol was great with all 3 of them! Always on time and never any issues at all! Couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after our fur babies while we were on holiday! Will definitely reach out to Carol again for any future visits!
Kerry Is amazing with my 4 cats and looked after everything. She doesn't just pop in she makes an effort to play with them and keeps me updated with photos and messages. She even looked after them an extra day due to a delay in returning. I will be using her in the future. A lovely woman who is great with animals. Thank you Kerry!

FAQs for Cat Sitting – Sandwell
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Sandwell on Rover is £13 per Visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £10 and £18 per Visit.
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.
There are 926 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Sandwell. About 91% of Sandwell sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page.
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.
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.
