“Michelle stayed at our house for two nights to watch our dogs and was absolutely fantastic. She kept us up-to-date with pictures and videos and followed our instructions perfectly. Would recommend Michelle to anyone!”
About: I grew up with a standard poodle and multiple cats and have fostered a total of 13 cats (Austin Pets Alive). I have cat, dog, and house sitting experience. I have experience working with animals of all ages. I have experience working with incontinent dogs. I have experience working with cats who are on oral medications. I have experience working with animals wearing a cone/donut I am self employed and work part-time at a coffee shop Tuesday through Friday which allows me to be extremely flexible and available for assistance! I treat every animal as if they were my own! Consistency is important (routine, feeding times, exercise, etc). I follow my intuition and listen to what an animal is trying to tell me based on their behavior and/or body language
“Briona was absolutely amazing with my 2 dogs and cat. She updated me regularly and was able to give my old geriatric dog his meds. I will absolutely be booking her again if I need a pet sitter.”
About: I had a maltese puppy for 10 years from age 9 weeks onward and most recently had a shih tzu puppy that turned 1 on 5/28/25. In the past I've had pets including hamsters, guinea pigs, chickens, and fish of my own. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so your pup will get lots of attention and care throughout the day. Here's what a typical day looks like when your dog is with me: 🐾 Morning (7am–10am): Potty break, breakfast, and a light walk or play session 🐾 Midday (11am–2pm): Walks, potty breaks, enrichment games, or just relaxing cuddle time 🐾 Afternoon (3pm–6pm): Another walk or active playtime in a safe, calm environment 🐾 Evening (7pm–9pm): Dinner, a final potty break, and winding down for the night I'm available for: ✅ Drop-in visits ✅ Dog walking ✅ Puppy care Weekend and holiday availability included! I’m happy to accommodate special routines, medications, or specific instructions your dog needs to feel comfortable and loved. When you trust me to care for your dog, I show up with love, respect, and attention to detail — all in the comfort of your dog’s familiar surroundings. 🐶 In-Home Peace of Mind: I care for pets in their own homes, where they feel most secure. Whether I’m dropping in for a quick visit, taking your pup for a walk, or staying overnight, I follow your routine closely to minimize stress and keep your dog calm and happy. 🦴 Personalized, Gentle Care: I specialize in small breeds and have over 10 years of experience. From meal schedules and potty routines to medication or calming techniques, I provide care tailored to your dog’s specific needs. 🚶🏽♀️ Safe & Engaging Walks: Walks are done one-on-one in familiar areas, with close attention to your pet’s energy level, leash behavior, and comfort. I avoid crowded dog parks or risky environments to keep your dog safe. 📝 Trustworthy & Transparent: I communicate clearly, provide updates, and send photos during every visit. You’ll always know how your pet is doing, whether I’m there for 20 minutes or staying the night. Your pet stays safe, your home is respected, and you can relax knowing your furry family member is in loving, responsible hands.
“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.”
About: I have owned dogs and cats my whole life. At one point we had 4 dogs in the house! I am a dog-lover above all, but I also LOVE cats and understand them and their boundaries. I look forward to making new furry friends :) I currently work part-time on Saturdays and am a grad student during the Fall and Spring. Pet care is an AWESOME addition to my open schedule! I have overnight “cat-sat” on and off for the last two years. I do not leave any messes and am respectful of others’ spaces. I keep to myself and read books or do homework online when I stay the night somewhere—as well as hanging with critters!! I am professional and respectful about the work I do🩷
“Taliah was nothing short of exceptional! Our dogs were so happy to be with her. She sent us updates multiple times a day, showed care and concern and asked questions when needed. I can’t recommend her enough. Looking forward to the next time we are away and can book her! Will 💯 use her again!”
“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!”
About: I grew up with dogs since I was 8. I have cared for my own pets since 18. My neighbors and friends trust me to care for their fur babies while they are away from home. I have experience with puppies, adult and senior dogs as well as cats. I can walk, play, feed, administer medication or just hang out with your pets as needed. I will follow your instructions and respect your home. You can trust me caring for your pets, making them happy and provide updates to you while you are away. I am currently available most of the day and night to provide the care your pup needs. I am available to stay at your place after 7pm if you require house sitting and will leave in the morning. I will provide visits and walks during the day. I will follow your instructions to provide the care and attention your pup needs in your home, during our walk or play time. I will provide updates as needed. My mission is to make your pup and you happy.
“Nikki was terrific with my kitties as I was out of town for 8 days. She delivers and additionally left my home in tip-top shape. My cats were very well taken care of and calm upon my return. I could not ask for more.”
“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!”
“Both my dogs love Ethan. My little female dog is weary of strangers. Not Ethan. She goes right to and paws at him for his attention. I've never had a previous pet sitter that she trust. Animals sense a good person. Also, Ethan was terrific handling our large male Siberian Husky who is a very bratty, stubborn and at times difficult. Ethan knew exactly how to handle him. I highly recommend Ethan. He is now our permanent pet sitter.”
“Chris took very good care of our dog, Millie! He was very communicative at the end of every day letting us know how our dogs day was, along with pictures. I also appreciated while staying at our house it looked the same way when we left it. (No mess). We will definitely use Chris again for future dog/house sitting!”
“We just came back from our first vacation in years and Jessica was a huge reason our trip was great. We have two dogs we care deeply for and boarding them for just a weekend was stressful… and expensive! Our older dog has incredible anxiety every time we leave. So we decided to give Rover a try and we’re very happy we did. We met with a couple of sitters before our trip and Jessica impressed us with her flexibility and professionalism so we asked her to dogsit for the three nights we were away. She was great with our dogs and cared for them the way we wanted. In addition, she sent us pictures and texts with updates on the dogs. She made a great impression and completely sold us on Rover. I now feel confident that we can take more relaxing vacations knowing how well she took care of our dogs! I couldn’t have asked for more.”
“Christine is a wonderful dog sitter! She stayed 9 days with our 2 high maintenance dogs and took excellent care of them. Christine’s communication both before and during our trip was exactly what we needed to feel comfortable. She sent pictures of our boys daily and sent us updates on their behaviors, eating, sleeping, and general wellbeing. It allowed us to relax and enjoy our trip!”
“We are first-time Rover users and had a great experience with Brooke. Brooke stayed at our home with our dog and our cat for 5 nights. Upon meeting her, she was kind and professional and demonstrated her knowledge of animal care and ease being in new situations. She left our house tidy and took care of normal house stuff during her stay. We are so grateful to Brooke and would highly recommend her and plan to use her in the future. Thanks so much Brooke that we could be on our trip and have the peace of mind that you offered in staying with our animals!”
“Jade stayed at our place for a week watching our 2 pups and everything went great! We were kept up to date with pics and details of their days together and overall would recommend! Thanks again Jade!”

Wow, Tasha is the absolute best! So thoughtful, responsible, and communicative in sitting Murph and our house. She sent us regular updates including the cutest pics and videos, left the house in better shape than when she arrived, and gave Murph all the attention and care an energetic puppy needs. He was sad to see her go at the end of the weekend but you can bet we’ll ask her back for next time.
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!
We were able to have a worry-free get away because Christopher was taking care of the homefront. He was very reliable and was great at communicating with us the whole time and he clearly took great care of our boy, Domino. Thank you Christopher. We will certainly call on you again!
Very responsive to my messages, she was on time and my pets loved her. She was very sweet and very nice when I met her and she did everything I asked her without an Issue. She stayed overnight and was very respectful. I will be primarily using her going forward. Loved!!

FAQs for House Sitting - East Berlin
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in East Berlin on Rover is $46.62 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 1,645 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across East 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 East 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 East 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 East 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
