“Annabelle went above and beyond for our boy! She came and checked on him when it was outside her window and didn't ask for anything in return, sent pictures and did everything he needed for him including snuggles and pets.”
“Marina took excellent care of my shy dog, Lady. She came to meet us beforehand and reassured us that Lady would be in great hands while I was out of town. She was communicative and gave plenty of updates each time she visited Lady. Will definitely book Marina again!”
“Trina is so great! This was our second time utilizing her services. She is very communicative and does a great job with our kitty! Very trustworthy and kind. ❤️”
“I was really nervous, but he did real well and treated my Leo right and it was really smooth. I love that he was very responsive and took pictures for me so I can have peace of mind. 💕”
“Benjamin was extremely professional with me and sweet to my cats. They can be a little picky about who they interact with and shy around new people and he made them comfortable while I was away.”
“Jessica was simply amazing! From keeping me fully updated with my puppy, to making sure I felt comfortable that my puppy was safe. I can’t express how grateful and happy I am with her care. Would recommend 100%!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. My husband and I have two dogs of our own, and they truly are our world, so caring for dogs is a natural part of our everyday life 🐾 What sets me apart is my experience with senior dogs and administering medications, even to dogs who may be hesitant or a bit stubborn. I’m patient, calm, and detail-oriented, and I take the time to make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. As a fellow dog mom, I understand how important trust and communication are. I follow routines closely, treat every dog like family, and provide regular photo and text updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pup and help make your time away stress-free. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine since I work fully remote and am home throughout the day. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, attention, and companionship rather than leaving dogs alone for long periods. I follow a consistent routine with scheduled feedings, walks, enrichment, and rest, and I’m happy to adjust to each dog’s specific needs. Caring for my own two dogs has made pet care a natural part of my everyday life, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, loving environment for every dog in my care. I care for pets as if they were my own, following their usual routines to help them feel comfortable and secure. In my home, dogs receive regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Since I work fully remote, they are rarely left alone. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely and respect their space, ensuring pets receive consistent care, exercise, and any special attention they need. I also provide regular photo and text updates so owners feel informed and at ease.
“What a great person! Valeriia was wonderful with our dog Monster, and she did a great job communicating how every visit went. I'm so happy that my boy had someone caring and friendly to be his buddy while we were away. Thank you, Valeriia !”
“Genuinely one of the best people I've ever had watchy pets. They treated my dog like family and even helped with a few chores so that I wouldn't have to worry about them on my way home!”
“Tori has been walking Maverick for almost a year now! We are moving out of state next month but she DEFINITELY deserves a review! Mav just looooves Tori! She gives the Best and cutest updates! He is so much more relaxed when I get home when Tori walks him...he just loves her. We will miss her sooooo much! Definitely book with Tori!!!”
“Cassidy was awesome! She took such great care of my babies. My cat loved her and followed her around everywhere. She was very prompt and sent me detailed notes and photos daily. Highly recommend her! Thanks Cassidy, until next time :)”
“Kaitlyn was great at communicating and coordinating visits to check on my cat. She always responded promptly and was incredibly amenable to any requests we had. I was so grateful for the detailed messages about each visit and the photos she took. Exceptional job overall!”
“Jaclyn was great with my baby and took so many pictures! She was also so organized and communicative. I really enjoyed working with her and will definitely hire her again!”
“Dee Dee is amazing - we were lucky enough to find her as soon as we moved to Austin and have been with her ever since. Our two large dogs absolutely love her and are grateful that Dee Dee is so reliable and kind. She didn’t even break a sweat when I requested a booking 24 hours before! She is truly an awesome dog mama and anyone is lucky to work with her!”
“Clem was amazing with our kitties! Great communication, picture updates, and responsiveness. It was wonderful to know our kitties were well cared for! 10/10 would book again!”
About: I am licensed veterinary technician and have worked at the same vet clinic for over 20 years.

My cat was in good hands with Jeremy! She seemed to really enjoy his company, and I returned home to a happy healthy kitty. Jeremy also helped monitor a few things around the house which I greatly appreciate, as I would have not been able to relax without him doing so. Highly recommend
Jessica went above and beyond, especially when my keyless door lock decided to stop working. 🫠 In addition to this, my boys were very well taken care of, and I’ll most definitely be using her again when I’m out of town! A+ communication and photos.😸 It was also super nice to come home to a tidied and swept apartment. ❤️
This is the second time I've booked Debra for a week+. She took excellent care of Sascha, going above and beyond. Debra's detail oriented, and made sure any/all instructions were followed to the letter. She sent thoughtful daily updates with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Sascha is normally very skittish and tends to hide from new people, but Debra was so patient and wonderful with her that Sascha started coming out after just a day or two. It was clear that Sascha felt comfortable and safe with her. I’m very grateful for the care Debra provided and will absolutely book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and attentive sitter!
Stephanie was absolutely awesome to have watch over our kitties while we were away for a week. She wrote detailed notes on how the visit went and how each cat was doing, and she sent plenty of photos which was always fun to look at. I can't recommend her enough - thank you Stephanie!
Trina is a fantastic petsitter! I feel completely at ease when she is taking care of my cats because I know they are in expert hands. She leaves detailed updates every day, takes great pictures of my cats, and brushes (and even gets mats out of) my long-haired cat! You can't go wrong if you are booking Trina for watching your pet.
Sophie did a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I was away. She was very responsible, responded quickly to all my questions, and shared daily photos and updates, which gave me great peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my cat and made sure everything was well taken care of. I would definitely ask for her help again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.
Val is great and a joy to work with. Our two dogs, Willow and Aspen, immediately liked her, which is unusual for Willow. It usually takes Willow a few minutes to stop barking, “Stranger! Stranger!” But with Val, it was within 10-15 seconds that she settled down and did a sit for pets. I took that as a very good sign and it gave me immediate peace of mind. Thank you, Val!!!
Ashley was and has been absolutely fantastic! I came home after a 12 day trip, and my cat seemed so well loved and cared for! Ashley noticed her automatic water fountain seemed a bit dirty and she went out of her way to find a bowl to ensure that the water she was consuming was clean and good. She emptied the litter box, swept up Riot’s room (I know she gets feisty with her cardboard scratching box), and followed every note that I left to the smallest detail. I even asked her to water my larger plants every day while I was away, and they’re flourishing! She is absolutely wonderful and so so so kind. I will endlessly trust her with my little Riot as long as she’s available. Thank you so so so much, Ashley!!
Kaitlyn was amazing!! She went above and beyond - she even came for a meet and a greet with our kitties before we went out of town. Our extremely shy and skittish cats even warmed up to her, and I think that speaks to what kind of person she is. She also kept us super updated with lots of pictures while we were away!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Dessau on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 3,708 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Dessau. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 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 cat, 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.

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.
