“SirJahad was a fantastic housesitter for my 5 month old puppy and cat. He sent plenty of pictures and detailed messages over the three days we were away. He followed our instructions and took our rambunctious dog on several walks daily.”
“One of the most important things when our family goes away is making sure we have a caring, responsible sitter for our dog, Bucky. Alyssa is amazing! We can go away and be certain that Bucky will be loved and cared for! We highly recommend her!❤️”
“Victoria was excellent to our cats. She gave them all the time and attention they needed while we were gone and despite them not generally being warm to strangers she got one of cats to pet her which is huge for a stranger to come in and do.”
“Christina is AMAZING!! We booked her for an overnight 6 day stay and we couldn’t have left our girls with anyone more perfect. Christina came for a meet and greet and the girls fell in love with her immediately! She dealt with all their little quirks with ease and they were so comfortable in her care while we traveled. On top of that she has done several day hangs with the girls while we are out of the house for work and she is so communicative, always on time and her passion and love for animals shows in how she takes care of our girls! Booking with her is the best choice you can make for your fur baby when you are traveling!”
About: Starting from the age of 10 my family has had many animals. Not only am I used to taking care of my own pets but I have farm sat as well. Being on a farm I became used to dogs of all breeds and sizes, ranging from english mastiffs over 200 pounds to small terriers no more than 20 pounds. Dogs with a wide variety of needs from primarily living outside to dogs that have their own couches in the house! Having my own dogs I am used to taking multiple dogs on walks at once and extremely used to dogs that have a certain way of doing things and want to respect how everyones dogs are because I want people to respect my dogs quirkiness as well. I am currently working full time but I do not work on weekends and have off in the summers. If I am booked I would ensure to fit pet care in as a priority in my routine. As someone who has had dogs almost my whole life I understand the importance of having a reliable person watching after my pet. In your home I would abide by your homes guidelines for the pet. If you would like them to spend time outside I would ensure that they are spending their time outside depending on the weather if that is their preference. My dogs are personally couch potatoes and only go outside if I make them or they have an emergency. I have also watched dogs that I let them outside in the morning and do not let them back in until the evening when it is time to feed them.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I was involved with HeavenSent Bulldog Rescue, where I helped care for and foster rescue dogs. Over the years, I’ve fostered multiple dogs and have always had three rescue dogs of my own at home. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, history, and needs. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, senior, or needs extra patience, I provide loving, dependable care and treat every dog as if they were my own. My experience with rescue dogs has taught me how to recognize stress signals, build trust, and create a safe, comfortable environment where dogs can thrive. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being will always be my top prio I’m a full time nurse at Chop but only work in the city 1 day a week. I am able to work from home most days which gives me flexibility. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on providing a safe, loving, and fun environment. I have a secure fenced-in yard where dogs can run, play, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. My dogs have plenty of toys, and I make sure all pets get lots of attention, playtime, and affection.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I make it a priority to help them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, medication if needed, and lots of attention. As a nursing student, I’m responsible, patient, detail-oriented, and committed to following instructions carefully. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m a nursing student with a flexible schedule and make time to provide reliable, attentive pet care. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends with advance notice. I’ll make sure your pet stays on their normal routine and gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special care your pet needs. I understand that every pet is unique, so I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and loved while maintaining their usual routine. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I have one fur baby at home to keep your pet or pets company and have a big backyard they can be free and play in.
“Sam was a wonderful sitter for both the house and my animals! She sent me constant updates with photos and just made me feel tremendously at ease! She really takes great pride in the job she does caring for our animals and appreciated that so much. Will definitely be booking her again and encourage anyone to do the same!”
“Jessica was wonderful with my dog Emma. Emma is an 11 year old rescue with hip issues. It is often difficult for Emma to climb stairs. Jessica slept downstairs so that Emma would not be alone. Very compassionate. Also Jessica left the house the same way she found it. She was reliable and compassionate. I would recommend Jessica to anyone.”
“Gregory was wonderful with our two dogs! He was communicative and very loving with our babies (one is a 4mo old puppy!) he was very respectful in our home and we will definitely hire him again!”
“Sky was wonderful with our 3 dogs! She provided many updates and was very professional. She was able to care for all of their needs. We look forward to having her again!”
“I needed a sitter with short notice and David was able and willing to come meet my 3 dogs within hours of contacting him. He was kind and gentle with my boys and knew how to approach one of them who is fearful. He listened carefully to my instructions and asked when something wasn’t clear. I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with him when we met the same day he stayed overnight. He stayed longer when we were going to be home later which I appreciated. When we got back, he left a kind note and some chocolates for us. I would hire David again!”
“Nicole was diligent in caring for our dog and bought him a couple of new toys that he loves! She was cheerful and exhibited a great ability in being able to manage his rambunctious behaviors from the very first day. We appreciated her dependability and punctuality.”
“Ashiera was fantastic with Ethan! She sent pictures everyday and was good at communicating with us. This was the first time since we adopted Ethan 2 years ago being apart for an extended time. When we came back Ethan looked as refreshed and excited as we did for our mini vacation. I wouldn't hesitate leaving Ethan with Ashiera again. She will love your fur baby as if they were her own.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Berlin
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Berlin on Rover is $55.5 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 4,930 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:
- 89% 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.
