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
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 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.
“Really happy with Amelia, booked with only two weeks notice and she was able to help us out massively. Doggy was very happy and had a lovely walk, would absolutely book her again if in the area.”
About: I am someone who enjoys helping people and sharing ideas. I like learning new things and turning thoughts into simple words so others can understand them easily. I really love cats because they are calm, cute and full of personality. Cats can be playful but also very peaceful. I like how they sit quietly near you and make you feel relaxed. I once had a cat who was very curious and playful. It liked to follow me around the house and sometimes sit next to me while I was sleeping. It also loved sleeping in warm places. Having that cat made me very happy because it was a friendly and comforting companion That is why cats are special to me . They are loving,gentle and always bring a little joy to everyday life.
About: Based in Wednesbury, I have been pet sitting for several years on Trusted House Sitters and House Carers as well as caring for friend's and family's companion animals when needed. I have experience looking after dogs, cats, rodents, sheep, birds, fish, goats, poultry, rabbits and cows in both the UK and France. Over the years I have built up an amount of excellent 5* reviews and references I offer pet sitting in your home or boarding. When staying in a client's home I take good care to leave it in an excellent, clean state. Your pet's welfare and happiness is of highest priority and I will ask for several details from you about his/her personality, likes/dislikes/routine/ health requirements and history etc including last flea and worming treatment and vet details. This enables a secure handover where both parties are happy in the knowledge your pet is in safe hands. I can also board small animals such as hamsters, rats, mice etc. I only board one pet at a tim unless they come together as one family. I have a secure high fenced back garden and a recreation field nearby for long walks. I have a certificate in pet first aid and DBS checked.( Please ask to see if you wish). As well as Rover reviews I have included copies of previous references and reviews in the photo gallery section of my profile from Trusted house sitters. There you can also see a selection of the animals I have cared for as a house sitter spanning many years. Please check my Rover calendar before contacting me to avoid disappointment. 🙂 I currently work from home so am available 24/7 to supervise your pet is boarding with me.. Please ask me for further details about availability and particular needs. I have a small, but welcoming house with wildlife friendly front and back gardens. There are no other animals living at my home so any boarders won't be sharing with any unfamiliar animals when coming to stay. In my past experience as a pet sitter I have cared for up to three dogs or four cats comfortably at the same time so I can board or come care for more than one pet if they usually live together. I understand the importance of sticking to routines and feeding schedules. Cats will be boarded at my home as house cats, with 24hr access to toilet facilities and a lap :-). I have experience administering tablet form medications and caring for disabled older dogs in their own home.
About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner I have hands on experience caring for a wide variety of pets including cats, rabbits, tortoises, turtles, lizards and frogs to name a few. I understand that every animal has unique needs from feeding routines and habitat maintenance to providing attention enrichment and companionship. I treat every pet as if they were my own ensuring that they receive reliable attentive and compassionate care whilst you are away. I am currently working part time in a school so I am available most of the day. Giving me plenty of opportunity for multiple drop ins for your pet. I understand that no two pets are the same and some require specific care. I am happy to work on a care plan with the owners to ensure that their beloved pet gets the right care. To board pets in my home you would be required to provide a temporary habitat for example a small cage for furry animals or a vivarium for reptiles. Heat sources can be provided.
“Great pet sitter and very accommodating. My pets all love her especially my cat who can be a little shy, even my rats love her who she had no prior experience dealing with but she took it in stride and makes sure they all have their needs met while paying attention to detail :)”
“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.”
“This was the very first time I've ever used a pet sitting service and I was a little bit nervous about trusting a stranger into my home to look after my pet, but I couldn't have asked for a nicer and more considerate person who genuinely loves animals than Kaitlin. There was updates and photos after each visit which gave us constant reassurance and comfort knowing Napoleon was in safe hands. Top marks. Very reliable and trusting. Thank you so much x”
“Ria was lovely with our Joey, was very reassuring and always sending updates and lots of photos. I felt good knowing he was being visited by someone with cat experience and who could cater to his many moods! Would definitely recommend her services to anyone with a furry friend :)”
About: I've been looking after dogs from the age of 12 when I would walk and feed family/friends pets. I also had work experience in a doggy daycare centre (which was very fun). Because of this I've managed to spend time with loads of different breeds from puppies to older dogs. I've never done needles but I do have experience with medication too. I currently look after people's pets as my main job role. I have a couple walks every morning, the rest of my jobs are usually 0 hours contracts so are on my terms. I have a fenced garden and have had dogs of my own, I am fully insured and love to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible.
“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!”
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful. Communication was great, genuinely cared about our cats. One wasn’t too well while we were away and she took care of her, giving her the medication she needed and cleaning up. It’s hard to find someone to trust with your fur babies but please don’t hesitate, Sarah is wonderful and I’ll book her again in a heartbeat”
“Anzelika was such a good choice to sit for our cats. She clearly loves kitties and took the time to bond with each of them, including our most shy cat, Wyatt, ensuring he felt comfortable with her by the end of our short trip away. Would totally recommend. ”
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.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 7 years old. Pets are members of family with feelings and they just need love and attention. 15% off for first booking with me. https://www.rover.com/sit/madalt75648 I took a holiday from my managerial position and I am currently studying so I am available most of the day between late mornings and late afternoons. At the moment I am looking at buying my own house where I can take care of your pets. I will probably buy loads of toys and create a nice space for them in my backyard. Fingers crossed Xxx
“Olivia and Lewis did a great job looking after Sprout while we were away. He's an older chap so with it comes some slightly less pleasant jobs which they had no problem picking up for us. They gave us loads of updates and really set our minds at ease knowing he was really well looked after, thank you both would definitely book again”
About: I have 6 years of experience in animal behaviour and animal husbandry, ranging from aquatics, domestic and exotic species. I am trained in dog and cat first aid as well as behaviour training for all species, this is to degree level. I have experience with dogs that have additional behavioural needs and may need extra tlc to feel at ease. I use public transport and walking to travel however this Is no barrier as I used to live in the Welsh mountains. I am available full time with no other commitments. I keep dogs on leash unless me and your pet have developed a bond over walking and they have good recall. I will follow all owners instructions on handling the pet, whilst making it an engaging experience, such as engaging on leash activities, and before taking off leash making sure the area is secure. I have experience creating enrichment that is calming and can occupy your pets time and divert energy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Sandwell on Rover is £12.65 per Visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 807 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Sandwell. About 88% 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 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.
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 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.
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 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
