About: I have always been an animal lover. I believe all animals deserve respect including the smallest mice. I have 10 years of experience with dogs and cats and i’m looking to make it more! What makes me stand out is I genuinely bond quickly with even the grumpiest dog. Yes, even pugs I’m currently a stay at home mom looking to bring in some extra money for our family so I can go to school for interior design. At the moment I have an open schedule specifically for mornings, afternoons. I can work with evenings and nights as well if you let me know in advanced. Although I live in a pet friendly apartment complex, we have a giant park and dog park right next to us. Dogs deserve to have outside time and explore just as much as we do.

About: Hello! 🙂 I have been a devoted cat mom since I was 10 years old and have cared for two beloved cats for over 20 years. Cats have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly understand their unique personalities, behaviors, and needs. Whether your cat is playful, shy, independent, or requires extra attention, I will provide patient, loving, and reliable care. I treat every cat as if they were my own and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family member while you’re away! Cats are fed on their regular schedule, with fresh water always available. I make sure to keep their routine consistent and provide plenty of attention and playtime during each visit. As a cat mom for over 20 years, I know that a clean, fresh, and quiet environment is everything to a cat. I’m very strict about keeping litter boxes spotless, food areas fresh, and the entire space free of dangerous hazards. I make sure their surroundings feel safe, cozy, and just like home so they can truly relax.

I am so grateful for Lauryn watching my cat while I was away. She was very communicative, and she provided me lots of peace of mind since this was my first time leaving my cat home alone. I think my cat really liked her, because he would be meowing at me angrily if he didn’t. He seemed to adjust pretty well. Thank you again Lauryn ??????

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I actually begged my parents to let me get a dog, promising them that I would be responsible and take great care of him—and I’ve kept that promise ever since! Taking care of my own dog has taught me how much patience, attention, and love pets need every day. I’ve taught my dog eight different tricks, and I love spending time training, playing, and going on walks with him. Whenever I’m at my grandma’s, I always make sure to walk and spend time with her dog too. More recently, I’ve started dog-sitting for friends, which has given me even more experience caring for dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’m a freelance dancer, so I have a flexible schedule and make my own hours. This allows me to make time in my day to give pets the attention and care they need. I’m available for walks, playtime, feeding, and keeping your pet company, and I’m happy to work around their normal routine. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I’m flexible and willing to adjust my schedule to make sure your pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I treat every pet like they are my own and make sure they are always in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special routines or rules. I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep pets away from anything unsafe, and always pay attention to their behavior and needs. I want every pet to feel comfortable, loved, and at home while their owner is away. I’ll also keep owners updated so they can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.

Although i still cant commit to having a new dog of my own just yet, i want to hang out and spend time with dogs pet sitting for other pawrents. Any breed/size/age welcome ❤️ Im currently working a hybrid schedule. Some days i work from home, some go to the office. I have plenty of time to take care of your pup!

Murray was an excellent cat sitter. He fed and played with my cats every day and even got my most timid cat to come out of hiding. He also took care of some minor things when I asked him like a camera the cats knocked over. I am really glad I hired Murray and Ana to take care of my cats while I was gone - and my cats were glad as well.

This is my first time using rover and at first I was skeptical because I have a very anxious and not so friendly Pitbull. I introduced her to Alex and while he met her he was calm and letting her sniff him. I had warned him that she doesn’t like to be pet and he respected that and let her be the one to get close to him. After meeting him and letting him walk her 3 times I was able to go on my trip for 4 days and he would go to my house and walk her with no problem. We have cameras and I saw how comfortable she was with him which was unbelievable to me and my husband. He kept us updated every step of the way and sent us multiple videos a day. To say I’m beyond satisfied with Alex’s service is an understatement. Will definitely book him again in the future!

About: Just moved to the city. Animal lover! I have had dogs and cats since I was 6. I have been fortunate enough to have taken care of my cousin’s cats and dogs for the past 10 years, as well as taking care of animals professionally for the last 7 years. I also specialize in taking care of animals with special needs. Whether that be administering medicine, giving special food, etc., I am so happy to do whatever your animal needs! I am a super active, young girl, and always love taking my pets on fun adventures, which I would love to do for your sweet animal as well. I also am happy to cuddle up inside and comfort your pets! My schedule is pretty open and manageable so I am able to care for pets frequently, whether that be day visits, overnight stays, walks, etc! I’m an actor, so my schedule is pretty open! My schedule remains the same throughout the year, meaning my availability will stay the same! Early mornings are always free, as well as night time stays! I have a daily walk and I’d love to take a pet along with me! My sweet dog, Simba, just passed away in November. He and I were two peas in a pod, often walking 3 miles a day together, cuddling up every morning and night, and constantly showering each other in love. I have so much love to give to sweet animals now, and I really appreciate animal care gives me the opportunity to share the love with other animals. I love talking to animals, helping with training, walking with them, petting them and playing, as well as giving them time to be silly and happy!

I also provide regular updates, photos, and videos, so you’ll never have to worry about your fur baby while you’re away—you’ll always know they’re safe, happy, and loved. I would love to care for your pet and give them lots of love while you are away! I will walk your dog, play with your cat, and give lots of enrichment to ensure they stay active and happy. I also provide regular updates through photos and videos so that you'll never have to worry while you're away! Working remotely for myself gives me the freedom to offer consistent, high-quality care throughout the day. I’m experienced with all types of pets and special needs—from giving insulin shots to diabetic dogs to helping a cat with asthma. I also regularly care for my parents' two dogs, so pets are a part of my everyday life.

I'm a full time content creator and freelancer and have all the flexibility to give your pet the best care at all times! I may even feature your pet in my content if you're okay with it. I may leave the house here and there to go to the gym or attend an event. I have no issues staying home with them as long as they need it! I make sure to give your pet the best care I can! I will walk them or take them out before I leave if needed. I can give medications or insulin shots if needed. I also have experience with administrating an inhaler to a cat with asthma. I can also take any type of safety precautions if needed such as closing gates, fences, doors and putting away hazardous objects or food. If they need to go in the kennel before I leave the home, I will gladly do so and be responsible of that!

About: I love dogs and understand that yours is part of your family. I have owned dogs for over 18 years (male german shepherd mix and female pitbull) and I know what makes them tick! I have experience walking fussy/reactive, even aggressive dogs, both big and small. I just can’t live without them. With reasonable notice, I am available pretty much all day long for dog walks and sits. I can always easily adjust my schedule and am very flexible when it comes to last minute arrangements. No issues moving dates around if my calendar is open. I have a fenced in yard and the house is plenty spacious. My goal is always to provide a safe and comfortable experience for your pet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Guttenberg on Rover is $28.86 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 26,666 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Guttenberg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Guttenberg stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Guttenberg 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!

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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Guttenberg with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Guttenberg. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.

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.
