“Harley was amazing! Our original sitter canceled super last minute, and she stepped in to help us over the long weekend. She took such great care of Nala, gave her lots of love and attention, kept us updated regularly, and left the house clean and well cared for. We were so grateful she was able to help on such short notice and would absolutely book with her again!”
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.
“Madison was so incredible with Nala! She took really great care of her and sent me lots of updates, and took great care of the apartment. She went above and beyond to help Nala as Nala had recently had surgery, and was wonderful to work with.”
“Candiance is so thorough in everything she does. I got so many detailed updates and photos while she was caring for my pup. I felt very comfortable with her in my home, taking care of my baby. Highly recommend!”
“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!!”
“I have booked with Natalia multiple times for my puppy, Watson. She is a fantastic communicator and very reliable. I feel completely at ease relying on Natalia to look after my dog.”
“Bria was an absolute dream. We had originally booked her for 10 days to stay at our home with our cat and dog, but was totally amendable to adding my parents dog as well. She sent us daily updates and I could tell from the photos and videos that our babes were acting as they would when we're home, which is the best feeling in the world. We will absolutely be working with her going forward. Nothing is more reassuring when you're away then knowing your babies are cared for!!”
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.
“Denise is a blessing! I have no words to describe how grateful I am and lucky to have found Denise during the holidays. While no one was available on this app, Denise was flexible and kind to watch my senior dog while I was traveling to see my family for a week. I highly recommend Denise because she demonstrates everything that you hope for while you are away: she sends daily updates makes you feel that your dog is safe, she is trustworthy and honest, she is very flexible and communicates clearly. Thank you Denise and I will definitely rebook your services if your schedule permits. Sailor misses you!”
About: I have been pet sitting for over five years and have gained experience caring for a wide variety of animals with different personalities, needs, and routines. My background in animal care also includes working in animal shelters, where I developed experience handling and caring for animals from many different backgrounds. I currently work as a veterinary assistant, which has allowed me to further expand my knowledge and hands-on experience in animal care. I am passionate about working with animals and always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Whether your pet needs companionship, exercise, feeding, medication, or extra attention, I understand how important it is to provide reliable and compassionate care. I treat every animal as if they were my own and would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I am typically available for pet sitting in the mornings and evenings around my work schedule, making it easy for me to provide reliable care before and after regular working hours. On my days off from work, I have much more flexibility and availability to spend extra time with your pets and accommodate their individual needs. I always do my best to provide dependable, attentive care and make sure your pets receive plenty of love and attention while you’re away! Between work and school, I carefully plan my schedule so I can provide reliable and consistent care to the pets I sit for. I am primarily available for morning and evening visits, making me a great option for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, dog walking, medication routines if needed, playtime, and spending quality time with your cat. I understand how important consistency and routine are and I will always make sure your pet receives the attention and care they need during each visit. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I genuinely love and do every day. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet behind, which is why I will treat every cat or dog as if they were one of my own. My goal is to give your pet plenty of patience, attention, and personalized care while also giving you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring and experienced hands. 🐱🐶🐾
“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!”
About: Hi! My name is Kat, short for Katarina and I'm a proud dog mama to my little pup, Brownie! Brownie and I would love to take care of your furry baby. Our mission, to make your pup feel home away from home. After a wagging-tail discussion, we came to the decision that Brownie will handle playtime and snuggles, during your dog's stay with us. I'm a freelancer working from home and I make my schedule around the dogs’ schedule. The dogs are my priority. While staying with me your dog will have potty breaks every 2 hours and long morning and afternoon walks with playtime at my apartment complex's gated dog park. I live in an apartment within a gated community. There is a pet spa and a dog park at my apartment building. As mentioned I have a little pup, who will keep great company to your dog! He's extremely friendly and playful with every dog!
“We couldn’t have asked for a better Rover sitter! She was incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, sending regular updates and making us feel completely at ease. It honestly seemed like Winnie had the best time with her—I’m not even sure she missed us! She was also so respectful of our apartment. It’s such a relief to come home to a happy pup and a home that’s just as clean as we left it. We would absolutely book with her again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Winnie!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Genesis was amazing!! She kept me up to date with cute pictures and took such good care of my dog, giving her so much love and attention! I can’t recommend her enough!!”
“Alicia did a great job watching Ernie for the day. She communicated well beforehand, took pictures and updated me on how he did, and left the apartment the same as when we left. I definitely recommend her and would use her again!”
“Nicole was such a great sitter for our 3 month old 40lb little bear. Nicole was early, attentive to every single need of puppy, kind, respectful, and just a joy to be around. We highly recommend her to anyone considering her and we definitely plan to uses her services again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Guttenberg
Anna took great care of Finita while we were away for a week. She was very responsible and attentive, gave her oral medication, sent us photos and updates every day, and made us feel reassured knowing Finita was in good hands :). We really appreciated her help and would completely recommend her!
Ariana really helped us out with a last minute sitting request. She was responsive and came early for a meet-and-greet to make sure everything would go well. When I returned, my dog was happy and the apartment was in order. Ariana is a great choice if you need someone to stay with your pet while you’re away!
Daniella is the absolute BEST! She took amazing care of our dog Oliver and gave him so much love during our week long trip. We got daily updates and pictures and Oliver seemed so comfortable, happy, and doted on throughout the stay. She also took great care of our apartment! She is very caring and genuine- highly recommend! We will definitely reach out again ♥️
I can't recommend Julia enough! I always struggle leaving my cat Oliver and he can get sad and anxious when I'm away, but I came home this weekend to find him as peaceful and happy as could be, which doesn't always happen. It's such a relief to have someone who's genuinely loving and attentive with him, and who gets to see just how special he is. Thank you so much again Julia! ❤️
Ashley is the best! So reliable and trustworthy. We feel totally comfortable having her stay at our apt to watch our cat. She kept us updated with routine texts and photos while we were away. She was also very understanding when we had to change our booking last minute due to our dog passing away, which we can’t thank her enough for. Thank you, Ashley!
Randy is 10 out of 10. He cared for our dog, Arkham, for a week while we were out of town. Randay is incredibly communicative, flexible, and reliable. He offered a quick meetup before the sitting, and graciously accommodated our last-minute booking—we're so grateful! When our return flight was rescheduled, he went the extra mile and extended his care for Arkham without hesitation. Our dog had a wonderful time and we were able to travel without any concerns, thanks to Randy. As both a dog owner and someone who knows the value of great pet care, I highly recommend Randy! We look forward to working with him again.
Francisco was more than excellent. He knew intuitively how to care for my 15 year old pup. Knew how to give her her meds, understood complicated feeding, knew how to walk her so she actually walked instead of being carried. Knew when it was time for her to rest too. He was so sweet with her and she warmed to him immediately.
Harley was amazing! Our original sitter canceled super last minute, and she stepped in to help us over the long weekend. She took such great care of Nala, gave her lots of love and attention, kept us updated regularly, and left the house clean and well cared for. We were so grateful she was able to help on such short notice and would absolutely book with her again!
Mark was absolutely fantastic with our 6 month old puppy Fig! So much so that we tried to book him again before our first booking was over! He was attentive to her, taking her out frequently as we’re working on potty training, and even teaching her new tricks! He sent videos and pictures and provided updates. He was also very prompt with timing which we appreciated. He is such a kind and caring person- one we trust in our home and with our furbaby anytime. Doesn’t get better than Mark!
Isabelle did a wonderful job watching Chestnut and Walnut. She was super responsive and provided regular updates and photos. She also went above and beyond handling mischievous cat issues like knocked-over objects or torn plants, and made one bonus visit to check on the cats right before my trip was done. Would highly recommend — thanks so much Isabelle!
Bria was an absolute dream. We had originally booked her for 10 days to stay at our home with our cat and dog, but was totally amendable to adding my parents dog as well. She sent us daily updates and I could tell from the photos and videos that our babes were acting as they would when we're home, which is the best feeling in the world. We will absolutely be working with her going forward. Nothing is more reassuring when you're away then knowing your babies are cared for!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Guttenberg
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Guttenberg on Rover is $88.57 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 19,304 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Guttenberg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
Tip: 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Guttenberg. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
