“We will officially be planning our travel around Hunter’s availability. She was absolutely amazing. We have three large dogs (pitty, border collie, and shepherd) and Hunter was fantastic with them for the week we were gone. She’s the only person I will trust in my home and with my pups when we need to leave from here on out.”
“Fallin is an awesome sitter, she was very responsible and did everything we asked for! And she also did an incredible job on logging and feeding medications our cats. our cats had kidney disease and need to take meds twice per day, she sent us a very detailed log every single time so that we can track on their health. I would highly recommend Fallin and definitely work with her next time.”
“Aaliyah did a great job watching both our dogs!!! She took lots of picture and they looked so happy the whole time! She left our house in great condition and highly recommend!”
“Christina is an awesome and trustworthy dog sitter for our 2 playful Labs. The dogs had a great time with her playing fetch and I get daily updates which I appreciate. While mid-air and with spotty WiFi connection on the plane a problem with our sewage tank happened. Christina did what she could to prevent any water damage or any damage in the house. Truly appreciated her effort which is above and beyond! Thank you Christina! You’ll surely be hearing from us again.”
“Jamie exceeded my expectations and I will use her over and over and over! She even left a little report card! She was super helpful and even went above and beyond when my dog was itching. Again, she was amazing.”
“Alexis is an easygoing, fun-to-be-around lady. She listens, takes notes, asks specific questions and likes dogs even when they jump up and be rude. I wish I could hire her on a weekly basis to watch my babies, even without going on vacation, haha.”
“We absolutely loved having Zamiyah over. She provided such great care for Luna and Luna had an absolute blast. She was very responsive and sent lots of pics. We can’t wait for the next play date.”
“I recently moved to the area and had a business trip come up and needed to quickly find someone to watch my two Goldendoodles for a couple of days. Leah was super responsive, and arranged a meet-and-greet the very next day so I could introduce her to Ranger and Ember, and show her where everything is around the house that she would need. It quickly became clear to me that she is experienced, thorough, conscientious, intuitive, caring, trustworthy, and kind person. The updates and photos that she sent to me through the Rover app were very much appreciated while I was away! Thank you, Leah, for doing what you do so well, and for giving me peace of mind! I will definitely be reaching out to ask you to look after R & E for me again in the future.”
“So so happy Taylor was able to watch Java for over 2 weeks. This has been our longest trip away and he's an anxious dog. I'm happy with all the updates Taylor provided and providing comfort for him while we were gone. Will def be using her again!”
About: A pup in my care is treated like my own. I typically will take them out and about such as the trail near my home, lots of loving and stern understanding through our time together. I work from home so I have all the time in the world to walk the pup every two hours, feedings through the day and scratches behind the ear often. I live alone with a fenced in backyard with cameras in and outside my home. The pup is allowed on the couch and bed. Your pup will be comfortable in a smokeless home.
“Leslie was great with my pup Bogey! She communicated often, sent pictures and kept me updated on everything during the stay. The house was probably better than I had left it when I got home! I will definitely use Leslie again!”
“Booked with very short notice and Ashley was so kind to accommodate us. We were completely blown away by her true professionalism- most notably how she cared for our dog, Kiwi, who recently lost her bestie of 11 years and has been so depressed and lonely. We immediately recognized a difference in Kiwi, she is playing with toys again and has come back to her silly self. Ashley also went above and beyond cleaning our house and making sure that we came home and didn’t have to worry about anything at all. She also demonstrated excellent flexibility and communication most notably by dealing with our contractors who showed up unexpectedly to do work in the house. We are grateful to have Ashley and will absolutely be working with her going forward.”
“Sivani was wonderful and our dogs absolutely loved her. She sent plenty of pictures and kept us updated. We have a super high energy pup that can be a lot and she took amazing care of him. The other 2 loved laying around with her and cuddling. She was wonderful at following up in case I forgot a care detail as well.”
“Sidney was great. Very clear with any scheduling questions and made sure she knew what was needed for our pet. We are overly scripted and she made sure she had everything aligned to our needs. Always appreciated the updates and photos!”
“Jessica is amazing! She takes great care of our two huskies. They love her!! Also, our house is extremely clean when she leaves. This is the second time she has stayed with them. We plan to ask her to stay with them again soon!!”
“Sarah was fantastic! She watching both of our dogs for a full week in our home and not only took great care of the dogs but also left the house in perfect condition. She sent daily updates which was very much appreciated. We will most definitely use her again in the future!”
“This was the 2nd time Jordan stayed with our dog and two cats and we have been more than pleased both times! She is communicative sending pictures and updates daily, leaves the house straightened up and clean, and was even willing to water our garden and bring our trash cans out and back while we were gone. Millie, Milo, and Cali were VERY loved and cared for while we were gone. 5 stars!!!”
“Emily was a great help taking care of our fur babies during the July 4th holiday. The dogs loved her and she left the guest room and bathroom nice and clean. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Sara did a wonderful job taking care of our Willow and house! With Willow being reactive, she was kind enough to come for 2 meet and greets for her to get comfortable and was so patient. Definitely recommend and will be booking in the future!”

Noel did a fantastic job taking care of my fur babies while we were out on vacation. She was consistent with her visits and my dogs absolutely loved her. She was attentive and also was thoughtful enough to put a package we received in the fridge. I didn’t have to worry and was confident she would treat my babies with the utmost care. I will definitely be using her in the future and she is a god send since my pups tend to have separation anxiety.
Sariah gave us the best gift of all, and that was peace knowing our dogs were in good hands. She paid such great attention to our instructions regarding eating, going out, etc. We had a couple of cameras and could see that they were happy and tails were wagging. She straightened things up so that it looked nice when we came home from a long flight and also some tragic news about a death in the family. Our dogs aren’t always easy, but she had suggestions and knew what to do. I hope she will be available to come back the next time we need a sitter. She was great.❤️🐾❤️🐾
Zamiyah was so caring and attentive to Charlie. I loved that she communicated and sent updates on how he was doing and also made sure he felt right at home while I was away. I highly recommend her for your fur babies! I will be keeping her for future use. I’m glad she was the one to take care of my baby, he looked so happy while I was gone.
Hunter was very accommodating to my anxious cat. She was very understanding and patient with her, which I appreciated. She also made sure to keep me updated with pictures every day and let me know how she was doing while I was out of town. I will definitely be booking again in the future.
Chelsie is amazing! Super communicative and took care of my baby Phoebe. She took her for a walk while she was house sitting , made sure she was happy all day, and left the house clean! Also was understanding of a last min change I had to make which I greatly appreciated. Thank you for everything Chelsie!
Aram was absolutely amazing with our pup, while we were away. From the start, she was super communicative, attentive, and clearly cared about making sure he was comfortable and well taken care of. She followed all of our instructions, kept us updated, and even went above and beyond in a few areas without us asking. It gave us a ton of peace of mind knowing Kanye was in such good hands. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. We came back to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a home that was in great shape. Would 100% book Aram again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy sitter.
Rileigh did such a great job with Phoebe, I'm so grateful! My puppy absolutely loves her and that tells me a lot. She was on time, was giving me plenty of updates throughout the day, and can tell she was playing a lot with my high energy puppy which is all I can ask for and more. Thank you again for taking care of my baby!

FAQs for House Sitting - Berkeley Lake
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Berkeley Lake on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,801 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Berkeley Lake. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Berkeley Lake walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Berkeley Lake 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.
Tip: 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!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Berkeley Lake choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program 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.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 veterinarian. 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 authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization 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.
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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
