“Amy did a fantastic job taking care of my babies :) she walked Bee, made sure she took her medicine, and gave them both plenty of snuggles. I would absolutely rebook if needed <3”
“Rosie is awesome!! She took great care of our 8 month old puppy and our home while we were out of town. She sent lots of pictures and had great communication throughout the stay. She would check in with little videos and pictures of our pup and kept us in the loop about timing and everything. We did not have to worry or wonder at all with her here. And when we returned, our house was super clean even though it had snowed and our backyard was muddy. Above and beyond. Thank you, Rosie!”
“Dominic was fantastic. Very communicative and responsible. Not only did he do a great job taking care of our pup, our house looked great! It was such a relief to have someone like him while we were gone. We will definitely be booking him again.”
“Alicia is excellent! Watched our dogs over a weekend for us and took them on multiple walks, played with them in our backyard, brushed them, and sent plenty of update of pictures so we could see how much fun they were having with her. We would love to have her watch our pups again the next time we are out of town!”
“Braelyn was so awesome. She clearly loves animals and took such good care of our house. Everything was clean, bedding was washed, and the dogs seemed so relaxed when we got back. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be booking again :)”
“Maribel took such great care of our dog and home while we were away for a week. She sent daily photos and updates and we came home to happy pup and a cared for home! We will definitely be requesting her again in the future :)”
“Erika was wonderful with our old guy. She took great care of Bubba, gave him meds 4 times a day & did his workouts with him. She made our trip more enjoyable knowing he was in such great hands.”
“So glad that Carissa was available to watch my babies for a long weekend! She was great with updates and pictures and I felt really good knowing she was there with them. She took wonderful care of my babies and my home, leaving my place so clean and nice. She’s a gem and I will absolutely use her again! Thank you Carissa! 🙏”
“Natalie was an outstanding house and dog sitter. She took exceptional care of our Labradoodle, Hudson, making sure he got his medication on schedule, enjoyed long walks, and received plenty of love and cuddles while we were away. It was also wonderful that she brought her sweet dog, Junebug. The two dogs enjoyed each other’s company, and it was comforting to know Hudson had a canine companion while we were gone. When we returned home, our house was absolutely spotless. Natalie treated our home with the utmost respect and left everything impeccably clean. Throughout our trip, she kept us updated with photos and gave us complete peace of mind. We highly recommend Natalie to anyone looking for someone who is reliable, caring, trustworthy, and attentive. She went above and beyond, and we couldn’t have asked for better care for both Hudson and our home.”
About: While growing up, I have had cats and dogs my whole life! Ranging from small dogs to larger dogs, I am comfortable with anything in between. I have done pet sitting throughout the neighborhood, but I would love to have more opportunities. Animals are just the best. I work in Broomfield Tues-Thurs at the office from 8-5. However, on Mondays and Fridays I work from home and have a very flexible schedule so I can definitely make time to pop in and do an in-house check in and plenty of dog walks! I am usually pretty flexible on the weekends as well! I am very respectful in someone else’s home and ensure safety for your pet since that’s what I would want from anyone watching my fur baby! I follow instructions and would never go astray. I like to go on long walks and I would love to have company during them!
“Mckinzie treated our dogs so well! They are high energy pups and she took them for many walks and hikes during her stay. She sent lots of photos of them and left our house very clean. She also was intentional at the meet and greet to understand how to give our dogs the best care. Would definitely recommend!!”
About: I really enjoy time with animals! My personal favorite is to work with cats and I am always happy to water some plants while I'm visiting your home as well 😊 I am dedicated to giving the best care and helping you feel at ease while away from your fur babies. I have cared for dogs over the years including walks, runs, and feeding. Currently raising my own cat and always enjoy meeting more animals! My weekly routine includes working full time business hours Monday-Friday. I am looking to do pet drop-ins on Saturdays, Sundays, or weekday evenings that I have free. My first concern is the safety of your pet. I also am careful to treat your home and pet with respect, leaving them better than how I found it.
“Took great care of my animals and home. Lots of updates throughout the day. Made my vacation stress-free and I returned home to framed photos of my pets. Appreciated the extra effort! Great sitter.”
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats both personally and professionally for about 20 years. I guarantee the highest level of professional care and service for your furry friend. I'm currently working full time remote with opportunities to help friends and family during the day with their needs. I sometimes have unplanned meetings however that I have to abide by but typically I'm very flexible. I live in a one bedroom apartment currently so I do not currently offer services for boarding pets. Additionally I have my own cat who can be hot and cold for new comers.
“We've used Jacqueline before and love having her take care of our pup! She is incredibly attentive and communicative—we especially love getting pictures and Jacqueline sends some of the best. She takes amazing care of our home and we never have to worry if Ollie is doing alright. Ollie had an emergency a few days prior to Jacqueline staying with her that required taking meds we hadn’t planned for. Jacqueline was super flexible coming into this sit — willing to give Ollie her meds and modify activities for what Ollie was able to do at that time.”
About: I have been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Though I grew up with cats, I spent time with and caring for neighborhood dogs and my friends’ dogs as I got older. I now have one of each, a dog named Atlas and a cat named Sancho. I am also well experienced in training my own personal dog and am open to working with puppies. I am also comfortable giving oral medication. I am very active and would be happy to walk or run your dog. Young or old, energy or slow, I would love to spend time with them. I am reliable and communicative and love every pet I meet! I’m currently working full time Tuesday - Thursday and am available half days on Monday, Friday, the weekends! Usually I do walks and play time in the morning and night, and incorporate other activities as relevant to your pet throughout the day. It’s important to me to take care of your pet the way that feels best to you! I am non judge mental and know you know what’s best for your pets! I always communicate effectively to make sure I am understanding how best to support you and your pets!
“We are so grateful for the excellent care our dog received! Terri handled a complicated medication schedule with confidence and took amazing care of our dog through a few unexpected tummy issues and even a beeping smoke alarm. She kept us updated, was incredibly reliable, and truly went above and beyond. We had complete peace of mind while we were away and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Jared was great!! Communicated very well and came back to a spotless apartment. Very thankful to now have someone I can trust to watch my baby 🐶 Would definitely recommend Jared to anyone”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Berkley
Overall, this was an excellent rover experience! The is was the longest I was away from my munchkins and Dionne did such a great job of keeping me in the loop, scheduling intentional playtime with the cats and ensuring Yosso had her medication every day. I will definitely be using Dionne for my future trips! I came back and the cats seemed like they forgot about me! Ha ha!
Chiara did a fantastic job watching our two dogs in our house, for our 3 day trip. She provided prompt and constant communication the entire time. She followed all instructions for feeding, walks and other dog care. She sent us photo and text updates periodically, to let us know our dogs were in good hands. She also went the extra mile and stayed longer than planned due to a flight delay. I highly recommend using Chiara for your dog care needs and my wife and I would definitely book Chiara again for any future trips !
Alison was an incredible sitter for our sweet Sully! She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated throughout her stay. She introduced Sully to her own pup and they seemed to have the best time together! Alison was also great about bringing in our packages/mail and took great care of our home!
Leslie cared for my 12-year-old lab/shepherd mix for more than 3 weeks- which is longer than I had ever been away from him- with absolute and complete attention to his needs, and because of this, I was able to enjoy my vacation with my family and work without worrying about my buddy! When he had a medical scare- as us older models do- she handled it promptly and effectively getting him the attention he needed at the vet and keeping up with his dietary changes and meds. she went above and beyond all my expectations and I will be hoping she is avaiable the next time i am away! the pictures and videos came daily- and I was afraid he might not want me to come home! Thank you, Leslie, for all you did!
Melissa was fantastic with Gracie over a week-long stay, communicative from the start with frequent updates and photos. Gracie has never let anyone but me walk her, but Melissa earned her trust so quickly that they were happily walking together by day two. She and her husband Chase are clearly a great team, both attentive and genuinely caring with Gracie. I'm grateful to have found a sitter I can really trust with Gracie, since that's not something I give easily.
Hannah was wonderful! She stayed at our home for two weeks and took excellent care of our dog and cat. She was communicative from the very beginning, letting us know her work schedule ahead of time to make sure it would work for our needs. Hannah sent us regular updates and photos, was responsive to our messages, and gave us peace of mind knowing our pets were in good hands. She even washed the sheets before she left, which was thoughtful. We came home to two happy pets. We'd absolutely recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Lauren took care of our two dogs while away on vacation. She took excellent care of the dogs and our home. She was attentive towards our older blind senior dog with special needs and spent time giving extra walks and playtime with our younger more energetic pup with lots of anxiety. She communicated well daily and sent us adorable photos. Highly recommend! Will be using Lauren regularly from now on. Thank you!
Lauren was an incredible sitter for Stella during our honeymoon. We were out of the country and had so much peace of mind and reassurance. She did a great job updating us and we could tell our dog was doing really well, thanks for Lauren. We are so grateful!

FAQs for House Sitting - Berkley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Berkley on Rover is $51.76 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 8,981 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Berkley. 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 Berkley 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 Berkley 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 Berkley 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
