“Natalia was great with our boys and took great care of our home. She looked after them for a week while we were in Greece and sent frequent updates — our kitties love her. She was very attentive to their needs and when we had a bit of an issue with our fridge too. Will definitely be seeking her services again in future.”
“Genesis was an amazing dog sitter for our 2 year old Goldendoodle. Kaiya has a ton of energy so we need her to go on multiple walks a day or to the park. Genesis sent tons of pictures on their walks and hilarious ones at night with Kaiya completely exhausted snuggled up by her. She also went above and beyond cleaning the guest sheets she used!! It’s was the added stress of cleaning everything completely taken off my shoulders. It’s been tough finding great dog sitters in the city but will definitely be booking her again.”
“Gwendolyn did great work house sitting Coco and communicated very well throughout. She left our house in pristine conditions. Thank you Gwendolyn and I look forward to working with you again.”
“Joy is super great! She came to stay with my kitty, Mel, while I went out for a few hours. Mel loved her and she even got a video of him curling up in her lap. So sweet. Joy has a wonderful personality. One that is perfect for caring for our pets - she has a calming and caring way about her. I took to her right away and knew Mel was in good hands. I will definitely ask Joy to come back and Mel.”
About: I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of love for you pets. I've cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and friends and family often trust me with their pets when they're away. I work Monday-Friday full time, but I have flexibility to work from home so my schedule is flexible. I'm happy to arrange my schedule as needed. I am easily adaptable to different environments so I will stick to ground rules set by the client. Strong communicator so will make sure everything goes smoothly.
“I can’t say enough good things about Candiance! She was so communicative throughout her stay with our dog and provided us with amazing photos and videos. She sent daily updates and our dog was so happy he barely even noticed we were gone. If I could give 10 stars I would!”
“True life saver thank you so much Emily!! She was communicative, such a delight to host in my apartment, and took such great care of Rusty. She came to me when I was especially in a pinch too!!”
“Alex came to our home to sit with our Ridgeback. He was on time and very attentive to Bodhi. He sent us videos and pictures throughout the day. Bodhi is a reserved dog but Alex made very effort to win him over. I would highly recommend him and will certainly use him again.”
“My father passed away unexpectedly and I had to leave for New York within minutes. My biggest concern was my two dogs. I reached out to Anna and she came immediately without hesitation. From that moment on, I was completely worry-free. She sent consistent updates, photos, and videos, and my dogs were clearly happy and well cared for the entire week. She stayed with them full-time and kept me calm during a very difficult time. When I returned home, my house was spotless and beautifully organized. She truly went above and beyond. She is the best dog sitter I’ve used in 9 years — 100% trustworthy and reliable. I will absolutely be using her again.”
“We had a great experience with Anita. She stayed at our apartment for around 10 days while we were abroad. We got many photo and video updates from her which showed how happy the dogs were. She took them on adventures to the park and cuddled and slept with them in our bed. She is friendly and jovial, and was respectful of our home - we would love to book her again next time we travel. Her pricing was fair, and most importantly our dogs were loved on the whole time we were gone. 10/10 recommend!”
“Stephanie was kind and caring - she did a great job taking care of both our animals and our house. She even got our shy one to eat! Thank you so much for granting us peace of mind while we were out of town. Our girls had a great time and we would definitely use her again!”
“Bria watched our senior dog, Winnie, for 1 night and was absolutely amazing!! She was very communicative before the booking and during her time with Winnie. She sent lots of pics and videos and followed all the care instructions to a T! We really felt like Winnie was in good hands. Thank you so much, Bria!! I will definitely book again!”
“T was kind, respectful, and took care of our home and our dog throughout the stay. Our biggest concern was communication and the assessment of an injury our dog sustained while we were away. Our dog’s paw injury resulted in an emergency vet visit and required stitches. We understand accidents happen, and we appreciated the steps T took to care for the injury. However, while we were traveling internationally, we struggled to get clear photos and details about the injury despite multiple requests, and it took until the following day to understand the severity of the injury. This made it difficult for us to make timely decisions while traveling internationally. We appreciated the care she provided afterward, but pet parents booking may want to have very clear conversations about emergency situations and communication expectations before booking.”
“Michele was quick to respond to any of our texts while she was taking care of our two cats, and sent us pictures daily. She was so kind as to come two days early to stay with one of our cats who was having some health issues. She paid extra attention to one of our cats who has health/behavioral issues and notified us of any issues the cats were having. We felt comfortable leaving them in her care and would definitely hire her again!”
“Rebecca was great with our 2 babies. It was their first time with her and they settled in right away. She was sent pictures and updates throughout the night to ease our mind, which was so appreciated. She was able to handle our 55 lb puppy with ease. Can’t wait to have her back!”
“Dasja was great! She really took care of the puppies and kept us up to date with pictures. She was also extremely flexible setting the dates up and making sure we had everything set for her to stay with the dogs. Really awesome experience. Thank you Dasja!”
About: Well to begin with, I have experience walking numerous dogs since the day I could remember. My love for animals in general is immense, contributing to the positive well being of animals is my passion and being able to focus that into a career is something I would have never imagined simply by making sure dogs go when they need too. It all began by simply watching over my own dog, and then it lead me into walking my neighbors dogs and eventually I took it upon myself to walk others in the neighborhood. The first dogs I took care of was a chunky miniature pincher and a 70 lbs pit bull terrier, I am not prejudice towards animals specifically dogs since they are in my field and I have years of experience with different breeds of all sorts. As I am a new LLC on the rise I am in the midst of obtaining my ARC certifications for the health and general knowledge of animals, considering on a professional level I take this accordingly and not enough dog walking companies supply this for their walkers. Being trustworthy, reliable, respectable, caring and cautious are few of the many traits I carry and endorse for my business in which I believe are critical in the dog walking business. Every dog is unique, just like a person I would not want to disrespect their space and have them catch an unapproachable vibe from me. I like to make sure I build comfort and confidence with the dogs I will work with, considering not many may be comfortable with letting someone unfamiliar walk them, my specialty. Walking dogs for me personally is never something I like to do in a haste, I enjoy in executing my job correctly and efficiently. I make sure every walk is special at times they come back home with a better attitude than the dogs left in. My main goal for the dogs are exercise, safety, fun and making sure they are able to do their business enough. I am a full time dog walker and lifetime animal lover so meeting accommodations for him or her is never a problem. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile hopefully I gain the opportunity and trust of being able to walk your furry child! Taking care of pups is my daily life. I have my own pups so it comes to me naturally. To do what needs to be done to make sure our pups are well taken care of! I do this full time! First of all, i make sure the pup is as comfortable as possible make them feel as if the parents are home. I walked them as many times as possible, keep all their needs up to date & give lots of love.

Jenny took wonderful care of our dog and our apartment while we were away. After our meet and greet, we felt confident we could trust her. She asked thoughtful follow-up questions and clearly wanted to understand our dog's routine. She sent us updates every day, so we never had to wonder how things were going. Even our doormen, who knows our dog well and always keeps an eye on him, could tell how happy he was to be with her. We're so glad we trusted Jenny and would absolutely book her again!
Kerra has been wonderful taking care of my dog Rosie. Rosie has some special quirks, and Kerra took the time to learn them, followed my instructions to a T, and went above and beyond by helping me sign for a package while I was away and securing a few things in my apartment ahead of a storm. Overall, would highly recommend Kerra and will definitely use her again!
Kate was fantastic! She stayed with Lola overnight while I was away and took such great care of her. I felt completely comfortable knowing Lola was in good hands, and Kate was reliable, caring, and attentive. I would absolutely trust her with Lola again and highly recommend her!
Madison is outstanding!! She took care of our boys (cats) like her own. We came back and they were so content and happy. She played, rub took really good care of them. She sent pictures and videos which really helped put ease to my husband knowing they were well and eating good. Thank you Madison and we will definitely reaching out to her again.
Nishita was genuinely one of the best sitters I’ve ever had! She took care of my cats while house sitting for several days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly responsive, patient with all of their individual needs, and proactive about communicating with me throughout the stay. She regularly kept me updated on how they were doing, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Most importantly, it was very clear that she treated my cats with genuine kindness, care, and love. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her hands. I would absolutely recommend Nishita to anyone looking for a responsible, trustworthy, and genuinely caring cat sitter. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!
Desiree was awesome! My 8 month old pitbull puppy jojo can be a total handful but Desiree was perfect for her - was very high energy and absolutely great with dogs. Jojo loved her! And I felt so comfortable leaving jojo in such capable hands. I knew jojo was going to have a great time. Desiree was also very communicative the entire stay. Would absolutely book again and recommend to anyone!
Randy is proactive, thoughtful and goes above and beyond...but, the most important measure for us is how Boomerang, our senior dog (with anxiety issues) fared under Randy's care when Randy house sat with him. Through patience, experience and careful attention, Randy successfully eased Boomerang's anxiety and to our very pleasant surprise, Boomerang was able to sleep, ate a few bites and went for a walk. Randy cleaned up after Boomerang when he used his wee wee pad - above and beyond. Thank you, Randy!
We had Dasja stay at our apartment with our dog and cat for the first time on the recommendation of our neighbor. Dasja was very comfortable with our pets, especially our dog who has some anxiety. Dasja is kind, friendly, punctual, extremely responsive and sent great updates and photos. We left lots of instructions, including some for meds that our pup needs, and Dasja was confident and followed through with all requests. We came home to very happy pets and a super clean apartment. We highly recommend Dasja and will most certainly call on her again next time we are in need of a pet sitter!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Guttenberg walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Guttenberg maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
