About: I have done both dog and cat sitting for multiple people over the years, in addition to volunteering with a dog rescue center during the time i lived in Mexico. Ive also done my part in rescuing and helping animals in my own time. I am an avid cat lover, but also very comfortable with all dog breeds and am sure to make sure your pets feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I work part-time in hospitality, and have a decently flexible schedule. I always have time in my day for outside time and walks. I am happy to listen to my clients' concerns on schedule needs and adjustments. We have 3 cats and a dog in my household, so i am used to the happy chaos. I know how to stay on top of feeding times, litter box cleans, and outside time. I am happy to listen to my clients specific instructions on how their pets live, and how I can make them the most comfortable during my stay.

“We had a great first experience with Zach! He stayed at our home with our two older, somewhat needy girls, and they were immediately comfortable and at ease with him. It’s obvious he’s very experienced and comfortable with dogs. He was timely, did a meet and greet beforehand, and sent us plenty of photos, videos, and updates throughout our time away, which we really appreciated. He was also very respectful of our home and left everything exactly as we had left it. Most importantly, the girls were happy and well cared for when we got home. Zach is genuinely nice, reliable, and someone we felt comfortable trusting with both our dogs and our home. We’ll absolutely use him again!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for family & friends over the years, and I’m looking to pet-sit/house-sit more often by using Rover! I have experience with dogs and cats. I mostly stay in the home while the owner is away to maintain stability for the pet, while owners are away on trips. I love spending time with animals and snapping funny or cute photos of them to share with their owners while they’re away! I’ll take good care of your fur-baby and show them lots of love! I’m available for walks, feedings, potty breaks and play time for individual days or several days at a time! I work full time M-F but can work remotely from your home and take breaks! I believe that pets are most comfortable when we stick to their schedules, so I do my best to keep to them! I also enjoy texting photos and updates to their owner.

“Serena was so kind and patient with our dogs. On the initial meet, she really took the time to earn the trust of our corgi who is protective and fearful submissive. She was loving to our old dog who has trouble getting around. We received many updates from her and could tell the dogs were very comfortable with her and well cared for. She’s also prompt in communication and very friendly. Would highly recommend Serena to anyone with furry ones!”

“This was our first-time using Rover for our dog, and we had a very positive experience with Abigail! She did a meet & greet, which was very helpful and made us confident that she and Cooper would be a good match. She sent pictures and kept us posted when her plans changed, and she needed to take Cooper to her house to finish the week...the pictures she sent proved he made himself right at home! We were very pleased and will definitely use her again. Thank you!”

About: Having owned pets my entire life, I take note of the specific, well-outlined needs for each furry friend and I will always be happy to help! I am currently working full-time (Fri-Mon). My pet care days would on my off days which are Tuesday-Thursday. If weekend evenings are needed, I am also open to negotiation. I like to have a meeting with the owner and get an understanding of the needs of the pet prior to sitting for smoother process.

“We couldn't be happier with the way Eren and Luca cared for our two young cats while we were away! They gave them so much love and attention, and were very patient with our skittish kitty, monitoring him carefully to make sure he was getting enough food when he was too anxious to eat at regular mealtimes. They were great about checking in and sent us lots of video and photo updates, making it easy for us to relax during our trip in the confidence that our cats were being well taken care of. They followed our instructions carefully and left our house just as they found it. We highly recommend them!”

About: I grew up taking care of dogs and cats, eventually I started working at a Pet sitting company. I love the pets special habits or tricks Have taken some basic dog training classes. I have a hybrid job that allows me to do long-term stays! I have required meetings on Tuesday morning, but otherwise have a super flexible schedule. I am not available on Saturdays or Sundays. I am not able to board at my home due to a lack of space, but my job allows me to spend full time looking after your pet. I can do check-ins or long stays if your pet needs a companion. I understand the importance of following the pet's routine.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had seven dogs and six cats, so caring for pets was a part of my everyday life. From feeding and grooming to playtime, walks, and giving them plenty of love and attention, I learned early on what it takes to help pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for mice, turtles, and fish, giving me experience with a variety of animals and their unique needs. I’ve always had pets throughout my life, and caring for animals has never felt like a chore, it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I also spend time feeding and observing backyard birds, which reflects my love and appreciation for all kinds of animals. Whether I’m caring for a playful puppy, an independent cat, or another beloved pet, I treat every animal with the same patience, kindness, and attention I’d want for my own. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feedings, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day, and I can easily adjust my routine to meet each pet’s individual needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. Although I have an unfenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised, and dogs are always kept safely on a leash. We also have a neighborhood with plenty of sidewalks that are perfect for walks and exercise. If your pet is crate trained or you prefer they be crated when unattended or at bedtime, I’m happy to accommodate that routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions carefully to help pets feel secure in their familiar environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same respect and care I would my own.

“Suzy was awesome! She stayed at my house for a week. She sent daily updates and pictures of my dog, was flexible with keeping in contact since we were on a cruise and could only use WhatsApp. My house was immaculate when we returned. She even washed and remade the bed so we could immediately collapse after 16 hours of travel. I highly recommend Suzy.”

“Catarah and Patrick were amazing!!!! They came for a "meet and Greet" and were very professional and had a list of things they needed to know in order to take the best care of Brie! While we were away they were putting up pictures of Brie as well as updates as to how things were going. They cleaned the whole house!!!!!! And washed the linens they used. They left a nice note as well as a little treat for me and my husband. We were thrilled with them! And so was Brie! I would highly recommend them!!”

About: I can help you with housesitter at day or overnight and give the 100% attention to your pet. If you will be on vacation and you give me the facilities at your place (nothing fancy) I guaranteed that your pet will be on vacation too!! This will be my other part time job during the week, right now I am busy with a weekend job. However I know taking care of your beloved pet is a full time responsibility, and I will make sure they get fully taken care of when I'm with them or walking them. I spoiled them if I'm allow to. I enjoy to have them on couch and bed and play all time, go out to park, take them outside. Give lot of kisses and hugs. But of course I respect your rules and I will keep the your pets routine too. And about trust, I consider myself as the most honest and trustful person that you could know. I worked on houses (sitter/laundry attendant) and hotels (receptionist/night auditor) and I never grab something that is not mine.

FAQs for House Sitting - Berne

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 715 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Berne. 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 Berne 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 Berne 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 Berne 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 , 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 .

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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 Berne. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
