Pricing

Free to look. Paid to write first.

There is no commission on the sitter's fee, no booking fee and no charge for replying. The only thing you pay for is starting a conversation.

Looking is free and always will be. Replying is free. You pay only to start a conversation.

No commission on the sitter's fee. AlpenSitter takes nothing from what you agree with the sitter. The platform only charges for contact access (subscription/Pass/verifications). What you pay the sitter for the engagement stays between you and her.
Look first, decide later. Nobody asks you for money to browse profiles. If you want to write first, choose between a monthly subscription or a simple one-off unlock.

Sitters

Signing up and appearing in search results is free, with no expiry date. Only the verifications and the featured placement are paid, and only if you want them.

Verified identity
ID document and a selfie holding it, checked by eye. Email and phone validated with a code.
Free
Introduction video
The sitter records two minutes and uploads it. We watch it, publish it on the profile, and you see the person before writing to her.
€ 29.90
Insured
For those who show us a valid personal liability policy.
Free

Get found first

There are other sitters in your valley, and families look at the first three. A featured placement puts you at the top of the results and of your area's pages.

Featured Profile

€ 19.90

Thirty days at the top of the results for your valley and your area's pages. The Featured badge appears on your card: whoever looks knows it is a paid position.

The period that matters

Featured — Winter Season

€ 49.90

From 1 December to 31 March, the four months when families on holiday actually search. Costs like two and a half months and covers four.

Notify me when it opens
We say it as it is. A featured placement moves the order, it adds no verification at all. Your card carries the Featured star. Next to the results it says that this is a paid position — by law, we have to tell whoever looks. If you want a longer-lasting effect: an introduction video and two verified references get you contacted more than any bought position.

How it works

What is always free

  • Seeing every profile, and every introduction video where there is one
  • Replying to a family or a sitter who has written to you first
  • Signing up and keeping a sitter profile online
  • All the guides, the area pages, the emergency numbers and the FAQ
Payments are switched off at the moment. Nothing on this page can charge you today. The buttons lead to a waiting list: leave your email and you will hear when subscriptions open. Sitters can already sign up, free.

Not sure which one you need?

If you live here, the 3- or 6-month subscription pays off. If you are on holiday, the Tourist Pass costs less than a pizza and never auto-renews.
