“Glenda house sat with our two lurchers and was brilliant - arrived early, sent updates and photos every day and kept us informed of everything while we were away. We came back to two happy dogs and a clean house. Would highly recommend Glenda, we’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“Sydney was absolutely fantastic! She was caring, reliable, and kept me updated throughout the visit with messages and photos. She handled everything with honesty and professionalism, and it was obvious how comfortable she is with animals. My pets were happy and well cared for, and I really appreciated the peace of mind she gave me. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”

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 dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been a huge part of my day to day life. Over recent years we've had numerous Labradors in the family, including raising multiple litters of puppies. I've helped care for the pups from birth, through those chaotic puppy stages and we even kept one of them, Milo! We also still have his mum, who has had two litters. I'm regularly trusted to look after our family pets when my parents are away, including three dogs and a cat, so I'm very comfortable managing a busy household with multiple pets and different routines. I've also looked after friends' dogs including one of the puppies from our own litter as well as helping care for my partner's three dogs. Because I've been around dogs of different ages my whole life, I'm comfortable with everything from energetic puppies who need plenty of attention and playtime to adult dogs who just want their usual walks, routine and plenty of cuddles. I'm a huge animal lover and I know how important it is to be able to leave your pets with someone you genuinely trust. I'll always treat someone else's dog with the same care and attention I'd give my own. I run my own online fitness business, which means my schedule is pretty flexible and I can work from almost anywhere with my laptop. This works really well with pet sitting as I'm more than happy to bring my laptop with me and work from your home, meaning your pets can have plenty of company throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods. I can work my day around walks, feeding times, playtime and your pet's usual routine, and because I manage my own diary, I have good flexibility during the week for walks, drop-ins and house sitting. Wednesdays are my main client check-in day, so my availability is much more limited then, and my weekends can often be quite busy too. Outside of that, I'm generally very flexible and happy to discuss what you and your pets need. 😊 I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your pet, so my priority will always be making sure they're safe, comfortable and cared for as if they were my own. When caring for pets in their own home, I'll always follow the routine and instructions you give me - including feeding times, walks, medication if required, where they're allowed in the house and any individual quirks or needs I should know about. I'm very respectful of the fact that I'm also being trusted with someone's home, and I'll always leave it exactly as I found it. I'm happy to send regular photos and updates too, so you can actually relax while you're away rather than wondering what your furry child is getting up to. For dogs who would be more suited to staying with me, I also have access to my nan's home, so depending on the dog and their individual needs, this may be an option we can discuss. I'd always want to understand your pet's personality, routine and needs beforehand so we can make sure whatever arrangement we choose is safe and comfortable for them.

About: Lifelong Dog Lover with Years of Experience I’ve cared for dogs since I was 7, starting in Ireland and continuing after moving to London. From Labradors and Cockapoos to Chihuahuas, I’ve lived with and loved dogs of all sizes. We have just moved from London to Birmingham and missing being around dogs! I work from home Monday to Friday, 9am–5:30pm, so I have some flexibility throughout the week. I’m available in the evenings after work and at weekends, which allows me to be flexible and fit around different schedules. ☺️ I prioritize creating a safe and secure environment for every pet in my care. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free. I closely follow any instructions you provide, from feeding schedules and exercise routines to special care needs, so your pet’s routine is never disrupted.

“Aleksandra did a brilliant job when looking after my rescue dog Freddie. My husband and I have used her twice now for sitting and wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Freddie was cared for brilliantly and our house left clean and tidy which was really appreciated. He quickly settled and soon accepted fuss from Aleksandra. From the updates and photos shared we could see Freddie had lots of fun with walks and play too which was lovely to see while we were away. So glad to have found Aleksandra as a sitter 😊”

About: Hi, I’m Vikki! I’m a lifelong dog lover with a huge amount of experience caring for and walking dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities. I’ve had dogs throughout my life, and my passion for caring for them started at a young age. From just 11 years old, I was walking dogs for neighbours, and over the years I’ve had the opportunity to work with all different breeds — from German Shepherds and Border Collies to Bull Terriers, Labradors and everything in between. I understand that every dog is different. Some love nothing more than a long, energetic walk, while others prefer a slower stroll, lots of cuddles or simply having someone around to keep them company. I take the time to get to know each dog and make sure their individual needs, personality and routine are respected. I’m confident handling both large and small dogs and understand the importance of responsible, reliable and safe care. Your dog’s wellbeing is always my priority, whether we’re out on a walk, having a play, or enjoying some quiet time at home. I also have a full, current DBS check, giving you extra peace of mind that your pets are in trustworthy hands. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a friendly drop-in visit, or some company while you’re away, I’d love to help look after them. 🐶❤️ I’m lucky enough to have a very flexible routine, which means I can fit pet care around my day and give your pets plenty of time and attention. I’m usually up and about between 7–8am and start my day by taking my own dog for his morning walk. After that, I’m generally available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins and pet sitting. I mainly work from home in the evenings, so I’m usually around during the day and aim to finish work by around 7pm. I occasionally need to go into work, usually no more than two days in a week, and not necessarily every week, so my availability can vary slightly. I also have my own dog, so I make sure he isn’t left alone for long periods — but this is one of the reasons Rover works so well for me, as I can build pet care around my existing routine. I’m very flexible and happy to work around your needs wherever possible. If you’re unsure whether I can accommodate your requirements, please just send me a message! I’m always happy to have a chat and see what we can work out. 🐶❤️ When caring for your pet in their own home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable and happy while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. I always supervise dogs when they are outside, taking extra care to make sure they cannot escape from gardens or get over fences. On walks, I will always keep dogs on a lead unless they have excellent recall and I have their owner’s permission to let them off. I’ll also work closely with you regarding your dog’s behaviour around other dogs. If your dog isn’t comfortable around other dogs, I’ll do my best to avoid busy areas and unnecessary interactions. Equally, if you’d like your dog to have positive social experiences around other dogs, I’m happy to incorporate this safely into their walks. I’m also more than happy to do more than simply walk your dog. Whether they want to play, have some extra attention and cuddles, explore somewhere new, or visit a secure dog field, I’m happy to tailor their time with me to what they enjoy. I can also take your dog to pre-booked appointments or activities, such as secure fields, wherever needed. Ultimately, I want every dog in my care to have a safe, enjoyable and enriching experience — while giving you complete peace of mind that they’re being looked after as if they were my own. ❤️🐶

Siobhan has really put my mind at rest after spending a week at my house looking after my lovely Spaniel. I was apprehensive as I’ve never really left him for more than one night with anyone before, let alone going abroad since having him but he settled really well with her. She sent me daily updates about their walks and his general wellbeing and all seemed absolutely spot on! She seems to really care about dogs plus she was very respectful of my property. I’ll definitely book her again soon. Thanks Siobhan!!

Katherine very kindly agreed to pet sit for me saving me from cancelling a large family gathering in Dorset. She sent me frequent updates which gave me peace of mind. My dog loves her and chows are very tight with their affection - but a tail wag is a tail wag! My cat is always elusive but he made an appearance too. My instructions were followed and she left my home in excellent condition. I wouldn’t hesitate to rebook or recommend her services to others. Thank you Katherine! ⭐️

FAQs for House Sitting – Sandwell

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Sandwell is £33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £26 and £46 per night.

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 1,417 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across the city of Sandwell. About 84% typically respond to requests within 60 minutes.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Sandwell walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

House sitting is priced per night and generally includes an overnight stay. In the city of Sandwell, the price of house sitting can vary between £26 and £46 per night.

Just make sure you and your sitter agree on the actual hours they'll stay in your home before you accept the booking. Each sitter has their own routine, and some might suit your schedule better than others. Keep your messages on the Rover app for future reference.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a 'home base' service. Most sitters in Sandwell maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for 'WFH' sitters: Many sitters mention 'Work from Home' on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical 'away' windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

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 , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
