How to write a pet sitter profile that gets bookings
Updated 12 November 2026
Owners decide in a few seconds whether to read on. A clear, honest profile with good photos makes the difference. Here is how to build one.
Photos: show the place, not just the pets
Owners want to see where their pet will be. Add bright photos of the rooms your guests use, the garden or nearby walks, and where they sleep. Add a clear photo of yourself as your profile picture. People trust faces. Photos with your own animals are great, as long as the space is visible too.
Title and description: be specific
A title like “Quiet house with a fenced garden near Fælledparken” says more than “Animal lover”. In the description, tell owners:
- Your experience with animals, and with which kinds
- What a day looks like for a guest: walks, play, rest, feeding
- Your home: house or flat, garden, other animals, children
- What you don’t take (that builds trust too)
- How you keep owners updated
Prices and services
Set a price for each service and each kind of pet you take. Look at other sitters in your area to get a feel for the level, and remember that SnudeRo keeps a 20% fee of each paid booking. Starting a little lower can help you get your first reviews.
Keep your calendar up to date
Mark the days you can’t take guests. Owners searching with dates only see sitters who are free, so an up-to-date calendar means you only get requests you can say yes to.
Answer quickly, and offer a meet & greet
Owners can send requests to more than one sitter, so a fast, friendly answer matters. Offering a free meet & greet before the first stay makes it much easier for a nervous owner to say yes. You can also answer care requests from owners within 40 km with your own offer.
