A local edge

Local know-how pays off in Biel/Bienne

Biel/Bienne owners book overnight boarding and daytime daycare around work trips and holidays. Sitters who can host from a home or apartment near a park stay busy through the year.

When demand peaks

Boarding fills up around school holidays and business-travel periods, while daycare runs steadily through the working week.

Know your Biel/Bienne areas

The town is compact and the outlying villages do the driving. Port, Lengnau, Pieterlen and Meinisberg are short hops by train or car, and owners there expect to come to you. Inside town, the Old Town and Madretsch are walkable and Bozingen sits at the mouth of the gorge. Say which side of the tracks you are on and whether you can take a handover at the station, which sits in the middle of everything here.

Breeds you will meet in Biel/Bienne

Owners here mostly keep Bernese Mountain Dogs, Labradors, Border Collies, French Bulldogs. Knowing how those breeds behave, and saying so on your profile, is what turns a first booking into a repeat client.

Bilingual owners book faster

Biel/Bienne is officially bilingual, sitting on the German-French language line. Sitters who speak both serve households from both communities.

Dog care in Biel/Bienne

Two languages, one boarding profile in Biel/Bienne

Biel/Bienne is officially bilingual, and a boarding profile written in one language halves the households that can read it. German and French owners live on the same streets in Madretsch and Mett, and the reply you get depends on which language you wrote in. The geography is unusually generous for a town this size: the Taubenloch gorge starts at Bozingen, the vineyard paths above Vingelz climb straight out of town, and the lake shore runs flat for as long as a dog wants to keep going. That mix lets you promise a boarded dog a different walk every day without ever getting in a car.

Common questions

Dog Sitting Jobs in Biel/Bienne

What new sitters ask before signing up on Petme in Biel/Bienne.

How much can I earn dog sitting in Biel/Bienne?
Dog boarding on Petme in Biel/Bienne runs CHF 40 to CHF 75 per night, with daycare and walks adding daytime income. You set your own rate per service, and you keep up to 90% of every booking.
Do I choose which dogs and bookings I accept in Biel/Bienne?
Yes. You review each request, arrange a meet first if you want, and accept or decline. No assigned bookings and no minimum hours, whether the owner is in Old Town or Madretsch. You set your rates and availability per service.
What protection do I get on dog sitting bookings?
The Petme Protection Plan offers up to CHF 20,000 for eligible vet costs for the dog in your care, subject to its terms. The same terms apply across Old Town and Madretsch.
Can I board dogs in an apartment in Biel/Bienne?
Yes. You set your own house rules: the dog sizes you accept, how many dogs at once, and whether your home suits high-energy breeds. Many Biel/Bienne sitters board small and medium dogs from a flat near a park in Old Town or Madretsch.
What is the difference between dog boarding and doggy daycare?
Boarding is overnight, billed per night, while the owner travels. Daycare is daytime only, billed per day, for owners at work. You can offer either or both and set a separate rate for each.
When does overnight dog sitting peak in Biel/Bienne?
Around the weeks owners are away: the summer holidays, Christmas and New Year, and the ski season and February sports week. Biel/Bienne owners book those dates well ahead, so opening your calendar for them early is what fills a new host's first season. Winter stays mean more indoor time and grittier walks, so agree the walk and drying routine at the meet and greet.
Are there part time jobs in Biel/Bienne that fit around shift work?
Boarding does, because it is billed per night and needs you at home rather than at a workplace. You choose the dates you host and how many dogs at once, and you turn down what clashes with a shift. There are no assigned hours and nothing you are required to reach in a week.
Which language should my sitter profile be in here?
Both German and French, because the town is officially bilingual and owners search in the language they speak. Add English if you handle it, since that is the common ground for international households. Keep the handover notes about feeding and medication in whichever language the owner used to write to you.
