“Simply the best! We couldn’t make it through the week without Renada! She is so calm and patient, and really works with our young pup to meet him where he’s at and help train him along the way. She is Morty’s best friend!”
“Marina did an awesome job taking on a last minute request for me, AND as a first-time sitter for me! She is very detail-oriented and did an excellent job ensuring my cat received several supplements and a medication.”
“Jaclyn stepped in to help take care of my two cats when our original rover person was unavailable. She did a fantastic job taking care of both cats! Everything was very easy and effortless from the initial meet & greet to the 5.5 days she took care of the kitties. Jaclyn will definitely be a go to rover person when we’re out of town”
“Cassidy was great with my cat Chewy! She sent tons of pictures and did everything I asked of her. I plan on booking with her again the next time I need someone to check on my cat.”
“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%!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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. 💕”
About: I’ve always loved animals and started pet sitting when I was 15. I’ve taken care of many sizes and types, from small dachshunds and cats to big golden doodles. I also grew up with two dogs who I frequently babysit when my mama is out of town. I’m experienced in walking, feeding, boarding and consoling animals who miss their owners (: I am home full time all week during the summer. I have my own cat who does get along well with other dogs and cats. I love to play with animals and I’ll make sure to keep your pet entertained while I’m visiting. I have a fenced in yard at my home. If they get along with other dogs, i’ll let them hang out at the nearby dog park as well.
“I highly recommend Sabrina, she took great care of me dog. She is reliable and trustworthy. I feel safe and comfortable with her caring for my dog and being in my home while I’m gone.”

I am highly skilled at monitoring animal well-being, managing senior dog needs, and following strict schedules with absolute precision.

With 30 years of personal pet care experience and a professional background as a Registered Nurse, your pet’s safety, health, and happiness are my top priorities during my in-home visits.

Every visit includes fresh water, precise feeding, plenty of playtime, safe outdoor breaks, and expert medication administration. My medical background means I’m highly attentive to animal behavior, physical well-being, and strict dosing schedules while looking after your furry family members.
“Magda is helpful, reliable, friendly, and exceptional. She provided exceptional care for my small dog the past few months. She frequently would check in and provide updates during the walks, and following the end of the session. I’d highly recommend Magda’s services.”
“Amanda came highly recommended by a family member and now I can see why. She was communicative, friendly and most importantly, took excellent care of my pups! This was my first time using Rover and she made it very easy to navigate the process.”
“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.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Dessau
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.
Debra is an angel for my boy, Luke! She makes sure he has toys and she takes care of meds, food, treats, and litter. She monitors his food n drink and reports anything unusual for me to assess and respond. Debra's been Luke's sitter for several years and we look forward to more.
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!
Magda was absolutely amazing with Milo! From start to finish, she was incredibly communicative and thoughtful. She made sure to check in regularly and was very attentive to any preferences or instructions I had, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Milo’s well-being, and I could tell she was in great hands. I really appreciated how proactive she was in keeping me updated and making sure everything was going smoothly. I would 100% recommend Magda to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Dessau on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 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 .

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.
