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.

About: Hi, I'm Janise! Thanks for stopping by. I'd love to meet your pup and give them a home away from home. 😊 Feel free to reach out with any questions. I can't wait to meet your pup! 🐶🥰 I'm home full time on all holidays and school breaks, and my parents are home full time. My husband and I both have flexible work schedules, so we're in and out throughout the day, which means your pup is almost never alone. Between me, my husband, our kids, my parents, and our dog Frankie, it's a full house of animal lovers. We have a big backyard where the dogs can run and play, and we all pitch in to take care of them like they're part of the family. I keep each dog on their normal routine for meals, walks, and any meds. Our backyard gives them room to run and play, with supervise outdoor time. New dogs meet Frankie slowly so everyone feels comfortable. We can also do a meet and greet first so I can learn your dog's habits and personality.

About: I have worked with cats and dogs over the past 8 years. I have a cat of my own and have fostered, rescued and socialized stray cats. I also have experience walking dogs and taking them out on pee and poop breaks! I love animals and would love to take care of your pets so you can travel carefree! I work a hybrid tech job so I can come by during the mornings and evenings and might be more flexible during the day depending on the day of the week. Please drop a message so we can figure out the schedule! I am very meticulous when it comes to pet safety - whether it is looking out for an approaching dog, caring for a cat/dog that is a shy/skittish etc.

He administered my dog's medication prescribed from the vet, cleaned up after her mess, took her for walks each visit, and sent me many photos throughout the visits so I would know she was OK. I would 100% use Leslie's services again and would recommended to anyone!”

About: I grew up loving and surrounded by animals, and learned how to care for them at a young age. I have acted as a dog/cat/fish/plant/house sitter to friends and family in addition to caring about my own pets since I was eleven. I am continuous dog/cat/house sitter for a family of two large, somewhat chaotic, lovable huskies and two cats, that hire me multiple times a year to care for their pets and their home for several days and up to a week at a time, so I have extensive experience with maintaining the care of multiple animals and being entrusted with keeping a home safe simultaneously. While my current circumstances/lifestyle, don’t allow me to have a pet of my own, I jump at every opportunity to express that love and care for the animals of others. I stop and say hi to almost every dog I meet and I love to walk dogs from the shelter in my spare time. I have incredible memory, attention to details, and am very thoughtful and caring, so you can always trust that I will go above and beyond in caring for your beloved pets and home. I’m currently working from home most of the week, so I have flexibility and time to walk your pups, care for your cat, or housesit for you! I love to walk, and am typically very flexible in the mornings and evenings. Like humans, each dog has a personality and needs of its own. I make sure to get to know your pup and cater to their needs :)

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, I work four days a week from 7:30am-6pm in Hoboken. (Please contact me directly for what days I work as they change every week.) This makes 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. 🐱🐶🐾

“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!”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Guttenberg

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Guttenberg is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $53 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 27,788 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Guttenberg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
