“Michelle did a great job sitting for our VERY high energy Husky. He couldn't be in his crate all night, and Michelle was on top of handling that. Our dog got regular walks, and the house was in the same condition that we left it in. Also, Michelle communicated with me very well with updates while we were on vacation. I would certainly recommend her to take care of your dog!”
“Michelle is amazing, recommend her services to everyone and anyone. She takes such good care of our Mayonnaise and she is so accommodating. Thank you Michelle, you’ll probably see a request come through for February/March! 100/10 recommend her!”
“Highly recommend! Briona has been very responsive and accommodating and our anxious senior dog loves her. She was great about sending us updates and photos and we absolutely plan to rebook with her in the future.”
“Sherry was wonderful. She was very responsible and took the best care of Dolly and Wrigley. She was very good to Wrigley when it started to rain. He gets scared and she sat with him calming him down. Definitely hoping our schedules line up for my next trip.”
“Jade was amazing with my dog and cat. Communication was awesome and Jade even helped my dad deal with my broken water heater. Definitely went above and beyond and highly recommend!”
“Christine was just wonderful. She took great care of our three dogs and we felt like we were in great hands when we went on vacation . She is a great communicator and sent us pictures at least twice every day. I highly recommend using Christine. We definitely will. Thanks so much, u r the best!!!”
“Nora was very attentive during the meet and greet, she asked a lot of great questions. Nora sent adorable pictures of my cat, Tiny, while cat sitting! No complaints. I would book with Nora again!”
“Nikki was great with our dog Lucy and went above and beyond to keep her comfortable during two anxious nights in a row due to fireworks over a holiday weekend! She followed all our instructions and comforted Lucy and made sure she was well taken care of! We look forward to having Nikki stay with Lucy in the future!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and have experienced every stage of all of their lives. Definitely not new to a majority of things!! I’m currently home after graduating college this past spring and I’m looking to make some extra money and with Rover I can have fun doing it! I understand the love and care that people have for their pets and want to be able to provide that for yours. I know different dogs have different needs and I’m here to care for them!
“Gabby was wonderful caring for my reactive dog! She quickly built the trust necessary and knew exactly what to do at every turn. She kept me updated just enough to know all was going well. I came home to a very happy dog! I recommend her highly!”
“Nevaeh was great with our dog Spot! Spot can get nervous around strangers, but he warmed up to her right away at the meet and greet and was very excited to play. Nevaeh asked questions to make sure she could best take care of him and make him (and us!) comfortable while we were out of town, and she sent great pictures and updates throughout our time away.”
“We cannot express enough how grateful we are for Shannon! My husband and I have 4 dogs and were fearful this would deter someone from wanting to take on that number. Shannon did not hestitate to answer the call and put us immediately at ease. Shannon came over on her own time to do a meet and greet and she was / is wonderful! She welcomed each dog with open arms and the dogs were overcome with joy that someone new loved them as much as they loved her. I highly recommend Shannon with no reservations. She is kind, inquisitive, patient and communicative. She sent frequent photos and updates which we were most thankful for. We would ask her to watch our dogs again, no questions asked. Thank you Shannon!!”
“Emily and Sarah were amazing with our dogs while we were away for the week. They not only cared for our pups with love and attention, but also kept the house spotless and treated our home with respect. We especially appreciated the daily photo updates—they gave us such peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
“Ariana and her daughter were amazing house/dog sitters for our 12 year old Puggle, Finn. Finn took to them immediately which instantly eased my mind. It was obvious that they were true animal people. Ariana provided excellent communication/updates throughout our weekend away, and the house was left immaculate upon our return. If you want stress-free, trustworthy care for your pets, I would highly recommend Ariana.”
About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats solely since I was 11 years old. We got both my cat and dog when they were just babies, and I cared for them into their senior years as well. I administered pills for both, and general young, teen, adult, and senior care. I also grew up watching both cats and dogs for friends and family! Your pet will be in great care of someone who treats them like family 🤍 I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability during the week, so I'm happy to work around your pet's usual routine! I'm available for walks and drop in visits on both weekdays and weekends. While I'm not available for overnight stays or weekend house sitting, I'd be happy to stop by throughout the day to make sure your pets get plenty of care, attention, and company while you're away. I have two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and well cared for while you're away! To keep my own cats comfortable and stress free, I provide care in my clients' home rather than bringing pets into my apartment. With that said, I treat your home with the same respect as my own, and I'll always follow your instructions and your pets usual routine. I'm also happy to provide updates so you know how your pet is doing while you're away. Depending on needs, I'm happy to take dogs for walks, let them outside, give them food and fresh water, clean up after them, play and give them company and attention. For cats, I can take care of feeding, fresh water, litter boxes, playtime, and cuddles... or personal space if that's what they prefer 🐾
“Sarah was AMAZING! Incredibly accommodating. Fantastic, even though last minute. And took care of all FOUR of our fur-babies when we were out of town! Will definitely be using her in the future. Our favorite Rover sitter yet!”
“David was a professional from beginning to end. Connected beautifully with my dog, was on time, and did everything needed for Jasmine’s we’ll being. Will definitely be hiring him again at some point.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Berlin is $60

Alex is a rare gem! Thoughtful, conscientious and caring for your pets and your home. She takes the time to understand your pet and follows their routine but also takes care of your house! Really appreciate her care when we are away! She takes care of everything and communicates regularly during our time away.
Kim was great with my pups. she went above and beyond. during her stay she encountered a snow storm which she still drove through to care for the pups and also cleaned an area of snow for the pups in the back yard.. She kept me up to date on daily happening. I would recommend Kim 100% she is great.
Grace came through last minute when we really needed someone to watch our pup at home because he came down with kennel cough and couldn’t be boarded. She took great care of him and the house and was a real trooper, even sticking it out when a storm knocked the power out. Regular updates, pictures, and good communication. Super grateful for her help!

FAQs for House Sitting - Berlin
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Berlin on Rover is $67.71 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,607 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Berlin. 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 Berlin 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 Berlin 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 Berlin 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Berlin. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
