“Jordan was absolutely amazing!! I’m new to town and needed to find a new cat sitter quickly for a trip. She made me feel comfortable with her presence and my cat adores her (and she adores no one). Thank you for caring so well for my baby!!”
“Courtney dove right in and took care of my two, somewhat complicated cats for almost two weeks. One needs daily meds and limited outside time to stay happy, and the other one is new to the family and is still getting used to everything. I got almost daily communication with pictures. It was great to have someone staying in the house as I was gone for so long, Courtney was very respectful of the house as well! I hope to hire her again in the future.”
“Tyler is just so great! She really goes the extra mile in taking care of my older cat - administering multiple medications, checking on her health, and just being extra sensitive to her needs. My normally shy cat really responds to all the extra love!”
“Heather has been a communicative, responsible, and caring caregiver for our two kittens. She always sends updates and photos that let us know they are happy and cared for. We have really enjoyed working with her!”
About: Ive cared for pets since childhood. I’m a father to one very anxious cat and have experience with many different cat and dog personalities. I’m a medical student and have a flexible schedule. I’ve dealt with both human and animal emergencies so rest assured your pet is safe with me! I’m here to work with you and your schedule.

About: I’ve loved being around pets for as long as I can remember, and growing up with dogs taught me just how special they are. Caring for animals is my absolute passion! I am dedicated to providing a safe, loving, and fun environment for your pups, and I can't wait to meet your fur babies! Because I maintain a fairly flexible schedule, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I structure my day around your pet's established feeding, walk, and play schedules. Whether your pet needs early morning check-ins, midday play, or evening snuggles, I'm able to prioritize their specific needs so they stay happy, comfortable, and on track while you're away. Your pet’s health, safety, and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal in my care with the same patience and devotion I give my own. Every pup is unique, so I customize my approach to fit their specific needs—whether that means high-energy playdates, quiet 1-on-1 neighborhood walks, or specialized care for timid and senior dogs. I maintain a secure, calm environment and keep you updated every step of the way with photos and notes for complete peace of mind.
About: My first “job” was dog sitting when I was in first grade. I included snuggling them every night in my promise to owners, and to this day nothing has changed. I work at the children’s hospital as a pediatric audiology extern from 7:30 am-6 pm every day. I would love to dog walk on weekday evenings and I am available to pet sit and dog walk on weekends. Pets’ safety is always the number one priority. With me, your pet will never be unattended or in dangerous situations. I also value other people’s space and home.

“Catherine took wonderful care of my boys, 2 large male cats, on 2 separate occasions. What I particularly appreciated so very much was that when I came home after being away, they were very calm and not at all needy, which is a sure sign to me that they were well taken care of. It was just so reassuring to me to know that! I will be using Catherine regularly in the future!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Branford Center
Claudia was flexible about scheduling and met with me due to a last minute change in my travel plans wherein I could not take my dog with me. That in itself was a game changer. An added bonus was that my dog bonded with her almost instantly. My girl is usually very protective of our home but Claudia was great with her. Even my cat, who is extremely timid and usually hides until new people are gone, came out to check Claudia out which speaks volumes about her caring connection with animals. Claudia sent me wonderful photos daily of her outings with my dog, who looked very happy, giving me such peace of mind. Claudia is a very good communicator, making sure of my return date, where to leave the keys, and feeding schedules. She is trustworthy and all was in order when I returned. I was so pleased with her service.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Branford Center is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $32 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.

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 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.
