This was my first time leaving these pets for any length of time and I was nervous. Lauren immediately put me at ease. She’s very caring, my pets loved her, and she communicated and sent pictures with every visit. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her in the future.

Michelle is epic, she accommodated me on such a short notice (5 hours!) and she is super sweet with our senior dog Mayonnaise. She sent a few videos and a photo of her short time with him, as we just needed her for a drop in. Thank you so much to Michelle, and we already have her booked for more services. She’s awesome and responds fast!

About: Hi there! My name is Ellie, and I’m a passionate animal lover with over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have pups of my own, so I know how much trust it takes to let someone else care for your furry family member — and I treat every pet I meet with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. Whether your dog needs a fun walk to burn off energy, a drop-in to check on meals and snuggles, or full-on overnight care, I’ve got you covered. I’m reliable, patient, and fully committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby and give them the care they deserve! I currently work full-time during the day, but pet care is truly a passion of mine and a fulfilling part of my daily routine. I’m available for check-ins and walks in the early mornings before work and in the evenings after I get home. In some cases, I’m also able to swing by during my lunch break for a quick visit, depending on location and timing. I also offer overnight stays, which allows me to spend quality, uninterrupted time with your pet — perfect for dogs who need extra comfort or company while you’re away. While my weekday daytime availability is limited, I’m dependable, communicative, and always make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve when I’m with them! When your pet is in my care, their well-being is my top priority. I understand that every animal has their own unique needs, routines, and personalities — and I take the time to get to know them so I can provide care that makes them feel safe, seen, and loved. You can trust that I’ll treat your pet like one of my own, with patience, affection, and respect. I’m mindful, responsible, and always keep safety at the forefront — whether that’s making sure harnesses are secure, sticking to feeding instructions, or giving them their favorite toy at just the right moment. I believe animals know when someone truly cares for them — and I make it my mission to create a peaceful, loving environment where your pet can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

About: I have been taking care of my own dog since I was 8 years old. I have been surrounded by dogs my whole entire life as my family and I are big dog lovers. I also have experience with cats because I have 5 cats as well! I have experience with senior dog care as well! At this time, I can care for pets at any time during the week, with some short time spans not available here and there. For example if I were to have a doctors appointment At this time, I am able to take care of dogs in my own home as well as in the clients home. If it is an overnight, I do prefer it to be in my home. Safety is always important to me and I always make sure the house is similar to “baby proofed” so the animal can’t get into anything dangerous or escape.

Our usual Rover sitter wasn't available. So we went with Angela D. who is new to Rover as a sitter. She lived nearby so we gave her a try. Angela turned out to be awesome for our feral cat I rescued. He took to her almost immediately. She did all we asked plus more and we returned home to a happy cat. I highly recommend her.

About: I’ve had multiple pets since I was young and always had a great love for all animals. I have had my dog since I was 6 years old and been taking care of her since then. Neighbors and family members have always trusted me taking care of their cats, dogs, bunnies, and birds and I love meeting and forming a connection with them all! I also have experience with senior and special needs as my dog had some behavioral issues in the last few years of her life and she has taught me a lot about having compassion for everyone. 🩷 My school year is over so I am currently home for the summer and will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I also am available on breaks as well and would love to walk your dog during those times! I am majoring in animal studies with a minor in environmental studies in college and have a very strong love and passion for all animals. I have a big fenced yard for your dog to run around and play in! My both love all types of pets and are super welcoming.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 12 and have experience with all kinds of personalities and ages, from puppies to senior dogs with medical needs. I currently have a senior dog myself, so I’m very patient, attentive, and comfortable with extra care routines. Friends and family always count on me first for pet sitting because I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like my own. I also have experience caring for cats and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is extremely flexible, so I’m able to accommodate all kinds of pet care needs including walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, puppy care, and senior pets who need extra attention. I make sure pets feel comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or a client’s home, they’ll get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day.

About: In the past, my Aunt had 2 dogs that I absolutely loved taking care of. I would willingly bathe them, play with them, walk them, and even pick up their poo! I also really enjoyed practicing some training techniques that I was able to help her implement. Getting to know your dog and you are my top priority-your interactions can tell me everything I need to know! I am looking for a part time job that I love, and that is flexible, as an extra source of income so that I can buy my first car! I find that caring for a pet in a familiar environment is extremely beneficial to your pets-it causes them less stress, and gives you peace of mind! It gives me the ability to keep them following their normal routines within their normal space, and still making sure that they are happy and safe.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - New Britain

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in New Britain on Rover is $27.75 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 1,249 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across New Britain. 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.

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

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
