Key considerations when hiring a dog sitter in Essen

Deciding to hire a dog sitter involves several important considerations to ensure everything runs smoothly and in the best interest of your dog. Here are some key points to keep in mind:

How to hire a dog sitter properly

Hiring a dog sitter can vary depending on whether you need occasional or regular care. Here are the key points to consider:

  • Unpaid occasional dog sitters: For occasional care by friends or neighbours, a formal contract is not necessary. However, it's advisable to document important information about your pet to facilitate care.
  • Paid pet care by private individuals:
    • For freelance dog sitters, you pay directly for their services.
    • For regular care, hiring as a mini-job with a monthly earnings limit of € 538 may be beneficial.
  • Important aspects of hiring:
    • A work contract is recommended to clearly define hourly wages and working hours.
    • Create a checklist with essential information about your dog to simplify care.
  • Professional pet care: When choosing professional care, such as dog boarding facilities or freelance dog sitters, a detailed care contract is often part of the agreement. Review this carefully.

By considering these points, you ensure you find the right dog sitter for your needs and that your pet is lovingly and responsibly cared for.

What information is relevant for your dog sitter?

Use our chat function to discuss your dog's habits and special requirements with the dog sitter:

  • What are the care times, days, and specific needs of your dog?
  • What are the pick-up times, and where can your dog be picked up?
  • Does your dog require medication, have food intolerances, or allergies?
  • How much exercise does your dog need?

Insurance and legal aspects

It is essential that both you and the dog sitter have adequate insurance. Liability insurance for the dog sitter can cover potential risks. Additionally, check if your own liability insurance covers damages caused by third parties, such as a dog sitter.

As a dog owner, you are responsible for your dog and liable for any damages it causes. This includes:

  • Civil Law
  • Criminal Law
  • Animal Welfare Law
  • Regulatory Offences Law

In some regions, paying a dog tax is also required. Check with your local authorities for the applicable regulations.

Insurance for your dog

  • Dog liability insurance: Often legally required, it covers costs for damage claims caused by your dog.
  • Dog surgery insurance: Covers high surgery costs and protects you from unexpected financial burdens.
  • Health insurance for dogs: Covers veterinary treatment costs and provides additional security.

During care by a dog sitter, liability remains with you unless the sitter is a professional and has their own business liability insurance. Therefore, sufficient insurance is essential to protect both you and your dog sitter from potential risks.

How much does a dog sitter cost in Essen?

The cost of a dog sitter can vary depending on the required care time, your dog's specific needs, and the sitter's experience. Average prices range from € 7 to € 20 per hour, with more comprehensive services like overnight stays costing more.


Frequently asked questions about dog sitters

How can I be sure that a dog sitter is trustworthy?
All dog sitters on Tierio.de can undergo a verification process, where their identity is verified with an ID.

What is the difference between a dog sitter and a dog caregiver?
A dog sitter takes care of dogs for short periods, often while the owners are away. A dog caregiver offers more comprehensive care, including overnight stays, and focuses more on long-term care and the well-being of the dog.

What if my dog needs special care?
We recommend discussing this in advance with your dog sitter. Many sitters on Tierio.de have experience with special care requirements and can accommodate your dog's needs.

Can I meet the dog sitter before booking?
Yes, a personal meeting is highly recommended. Use our secure messaging function to arrange a meet-up and ensure the dog sitter is a good fit for your dog.

How are payments handled?
Payments are processed directly with the dog sitter, ensuring transparency for both parties.

What if I need a dog sitter on short notice?
Tierio.de allows you to enter your postal code, making it possible to find a suitable dog sitter in your area even on short notice.
