“Thanks to Jennifer, we went away for the weekend and didn’t have to worry ONCE about our dog or our apartment! She gave us plenty of updates and photos, and was so caring toward our pup—infact she even went above and beyond and got her a ball since we had mentioned ours went missing recently. How thoughtful! Honey was so happy and calm when we returned. Thank you Jennifer!!”
“Chelsea took great care of our dog Bella. She was communicative, caring and sent us updates and pics which we appreciated. We would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Paulina did an amazing job taking care of our home and animals while we were away. She was incredibly attentive to our dog, who is very picky with eating, and made sure he was comfortable and well-fed. When our cat injured himself, she didn’t hesitate to offer to bring him to the vet—showing genuine care and responsibility. On top of that, she went the extra mile during the hot days by making frozen treats for our chickens to help them stay cool. I highly recommend Paulina for house sitting and pet care. We’ll be using her as often as possible!”
About: I find so much joy in caring for animals. I had a beloved dog for 10 years. For fifteen years I have been walking dogs in my neighborhood as well as providing overnight care in the pet’s home! I am comfortable walking dogs up to 70 pounds. I am comfortable with harnesses, regular collars and pinch collars. I love to bring dogs on long walks, but I think playing is potentially even more beneficial than walks as it challenges their brains! I have taken an obedience course. I would love to be a part of your dog’s care while you’re away and help make their day more fun and comfortable. I currently work full- time but work remotely. I have a lot of flexibility because of this setup and can manage around most hours needed. I’m an attentive person and follow care instructions well. I would be certain to be respectful and careful and considerate. I will always treat your home like I’m a guest.
“Jennifer did a great job staying in our home and taking care of our dog. She communicated very clearly, gave good updates (with photos), and our dog seemed happy, relaxed, and well taken care of when we returned home. We would absolutely book here again to dog and house sit”
“Jess was fantastic and showed Clay a lot of attention while we were away. She was very quick to respond when we had questions and sent lots of pictures during her time with Clay. I would strongly recommend her to anyone needing someone to look after their fur child while away from home.”
“We loved Kayla and so did Bella! Kayla gave us great updates/pictures on Bella and things going on at our house. When we arrived home everything was in place and she even took out the trash!! Don’t want to recommend Kayla, because we want to save her for ourselves!! No, Only kidding we highly recommend her, she was fantastic!! ;)”
“We have had good and bad experiences on Rover. Hiring Robert to housesit with our cat and dog was a GREAT experience. He’s extremely professional, responsible and communicative. During the meet and greet he asked great questions and wanted to make sure the pets were comfortable with him (which of course they were). During his stay he sent updates and followed our instructions for both pets to a T. Our pup is picky about his food and also takes a medication so I was worried he’d give Robert a hard time, but not issue at all for him! Thank you so much for being such a great sitter for our boys and for taking such good care of our house.”
“I was so pleased with Kendel's time with my pets. She was very thorough in looking after their needs, gave them lots of love and attention, and kept me updated with texts and pictures. I'm looking forward to using her again!”
About: I have been taking care of our bull dogs for seven years now. We adopt and had three before our oldest recently passed away. Bull dogs provide quite a bit of high maintenance care such as cleaning all folds multiple times a day, tail pockets, monitoring skin for yeast or allergies and of course… wiping butts after potty time. At least two walks or forms of exercise a day to keep them in shape for their health and breathing issues; if you see my babies photos, they are in super shape! So caring for three I feel shows my love, responsibility, managing skills and understanding of how to properly and lovingly care for pets. For many years now, I have also cared for a variety of my family members dogs and cats, whether that involves feeding, walking/ exercise, over nights, and loving attention. I am Corporate Life Coach & Counselor so I have a flexible schedule that I make myself, in a variety of towns in Massachusetts ( which is why my radius is so big) I also have a rental house in Dennisport MA, so providing pet care in the Cape is an option too! I love my fur-babies and providing love, exercise and quality time is what your pet deserves too! I will be providing services at your household, so any and all safety protocol will be provided that suits you and your pet to the fullest!
“Amanda was great! Our cats were well looked after and our house was left in good condition. She sent photos and updates to let us know how things were going. Looking forward to having her take care of our kitties again.”
“Kelsey was great with our 2 pups and when we returned from our trip our house was just as we had left it. She was responsive and responsible. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again for dog and house sitting.”
“Our almost 2 yr old Malamute was in great hands while we were away for 4- 5 days. KEVIN knows dogs and loves them. He communicated w us every morning and evening. Finally, we feel like we found a great fit for our dog. We hope Kevin feels the same way!”
“Julie was great! She was easy to communicate with and understood the needs of our two very different dogs. It was clear that they were well cared for while we were away.”
About: I have 15+ years in dog sitting / animal care experience. I am a dog trainer by profession. (8+ years). I'm an active full time dog trainer, training all types of dogs, excelling in puppies, behavioral dogs, reactive dogs, and even "dangerous" dogs. Animals are my passion and I strive to provide the best care and attention for said animals in need. I currently work full time as a professional dog trainer and kennel attendant. I typically work a regular shift of 7am to 3pm, so I am available for late afternoon and evening pet care. (More availability on weekends) I have a 2.5 year old lab who is extremely friendly with other dogs, animals, adults, young children and babies. If I were to take your dog home (my home) it is a secure, safe house with a fenced yard, as well as crates if needed / requested. (My dog is crate trained and I have extra crates).
About: I've grown up with all sorts of animals thru out my life...Quite comfortable with all working breeds the bigger the BETTER. Will consider a lil one who has the big breed attitude in his/her mentality....I've raised Akitas & owned them thru out my children's lives. My last doggie was a Bassett hound who has since passed. (Foto). If given the privilege of taking care of your big or small creature it will be treated as if they are my own. My experience speaks for itself & very capable , happy to take the responsibility of given ur pups/other a second home w/TLC. Thank you kindly in advance for your consideration in choosing moi as your trusted sitter ( now & longterm). Best y’all🐾 The pups that come in are either in yard or garden n house with supervision . Do work partime therefore I’m able to handle at least 5 dogs that are hopefully well trained. Being flexible is helpful when boarding & have a safe , good environment at a second home for your beasts. Besides having a long big yard to run around , also take pets to trails etc… walks are a must to get different smells & explore . If you like an additional specific outing I will try to fit that IN if possible.
About: Hi! We’re Laura & Phil — the husband‑and‑wife team behind Laura and Phil’s Pet Care! We’ve both grown up around animals, and today we share our home with two cats and a fish, each with their own routines and personalities. With 10+ years of pet‑care experience, we’ve learned how important it is to treat every pet as an individual. I’m currently pursuing a master’s degree in an animal‑related field, and I have hands‑on experience with medication administration, detailed feeding schedules, and caring for pets with unique needs. Phil brings a calm, steady energy that animals instantly connect with, especially shy or nervous pets. Together, we make a reliable, loving team that truly enjoys caring for your fur babies. Our schedule is flexible, and we work as a team to make sure your pets get consistent, dependable care. We plan our days around feeding routines, walk times, and any special instructions you provide. Because we work together, we’re able to offer steady coverage for walks, drop‑ins, and vacation pet‑sitting. We always communicate clearly and keep you updated so you feel confident and informed. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be our number one priority. We are reliable, safety‑focused, and mindful of your pet’s environment at all times. We follow leash protocols, monitor surroundings closely, and stick to your pet’s normal routine to keep them feeling secure. We respect your home, your rules, and your pet’s boundaries. Our goal is to create a calm, positive atmosphere where your pet feels safe, relaxed, and loved.
“Hannah was available last minute for an overnight stay when our original plans changed. She was able to squeeze in a meet and greet beforehand and put a lot of effort into helping our anxious dog feel comfortable. She sent updates throughout the stay and left our home clean and just how we left it. We would definitely use Hannah’s walking and pet-sitting services again!”
About: Hi there! I'm Amanda, and I'm a 43 year old lifelong animal lover & animal behavior nerd, that has been providing occasional petsitting and housesitting for friends and community for about 15 years in the metro Boston, Atlanta, & Asheville areas, and now petsit full time for cats, dogs, and small animals. I even have experience working at an animal hospital assisting veterinary technicians and doctors with testing, medication, grooming, first aid, and general care! I grew up with a Siberian husky, fish, and guinea pig, along with family that bred rottweilers, and have done rescue work and fostering with husky, malamute, and pug rescue groups, as well as sitting for dog breeds ranging from rescued pit bull terriers, to award winning toy, miniature, & standard show poodle breeders, to paraplegic rescue mutts, to great danes trained as mobility service dogs, so I have extensive experience with dogs of all sizes, activity ranges, and temperaments. As a huge nature lover and avid hiker, I'm always delighted to take your pup (or kitty, if leash trained!) on woodsy walks daily! While I am not a certified trainer, I'm familiar with many training methods and understand daily training needs as well, so I'm very happy to assist and continue with training during sits, whatever furry, feathered, or scaley species your babies may be! Cats are an absolute joy I've come to adore, having lived with many over the past 15 years, and recently gotten to live with and help raise a tiny kitten for the first time! I've worked with diabetic cats, giving daily injections, as well as numerous cats & dogs with various oral medication and special mobility needs, so I'm comfortable with all sorts of special needs furbabies. Over the years I've been fortunate to learn so much more deeply about and work with small pets like rabbits and guinea pigs, and love caring for these gentle creatures. I have some experience living with and caring for chickens, parrots, snakes, and lizards as well. While avian and reptile care is still somewhat newer to me, I've developed quick rapport with the few snakes, lizards, and parrots I've had the pleasure of meeting and caring for over the years! I have minimal experience with horses and livestock animals, but I do have some and very willing and excited to learn more. I do have a couple minor physical limitations due to lower back problems; I have medical restrictions on lifting over 20 lbs or working bent over for long periods, so despite my active lifestyle, I am unfortunately unable to work with animals over that weight limit that need to be lifted, carry large bags of food, litter, etc. I am totally able to break down bags of food/litter and moving them in smaller containers though, and do normal household chores like trash, laundry, and cleaning without any issues. As I haven't used Rover a whole lot for my work, I can also link you to my Trusted Housesitters profile via message to see my many 5 star reviews from other pet parents! I am currently petsitting full time. I do occasionally pick up some additional work, however the hours are on my own time and completely flexible, so my schedule can be fully adjusted to the needs of your pets and home. I LOVE house sits, especially long ones, and working with pets where they're most comfortable, and am willing to travel for extended sits! I also have extensive gardening and general basic home maintenance experience, so am happy to care for your home & garden during house sits. I currently offer full time, professional, highly experienced pet-sitting in my clients' homes, and have no pets of my own (my previous career unfortunately just wasn't suitable). I will happily walk your pup (or kitty! Or ferret, or iguana, you name it!) a few times a day, including longer walks and hikes if desired, and plenty of cuddles and playtime. I have considerable dog training experience, so can offer some continued training support if there is anything you're working on as well.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Berlin
Chelsea did an amazing job caring for my dog, Rue! From the moment we connected, she was professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Rue was in such great hands. Chelsea kept me updated, treated Rue like her own, and went above and beyond to make sure she was happy and comfortable. I couldn’t have asked for a better dogsitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving pet care. Five stars all the way!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Berlin is $61 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $94 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 November 2026, there are 5,831 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Berlin. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
