“Hayley was a wonderful choice to care for our two boxers! Her drop in visits were on time and she was a great communicator!! Our two boxers can be fussy but they ate well because she made them comfortable. Highly recommend Hayley!!”

I would highly recommend Jessica, and would hire her again the next time Mona needs care!”
“Tara was excellent. She was prompt and prepared to start right in, We found her energetic, kind, thoughtful and most thorough. She immediately engaged our trust and confidence. Our dog was totally smitten. Tara was just like family. I recommend Tara most highly. She is a delight to work with.”
About: You know that person animals just gravitate towards because they feel calm and safe? That’s me. A lifelong dog and cat owner, I've also fostered kittens and puppies for 10 yrs through the Animal Rescue League in Boston. I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and ages. I have a Great Pyrenees mix and used to have a Bernese, and was a longtime foster of a pair of chihuahua mixes. I've bottle-fed kittens, and given senior pets their meds (and slow walks). I’m an active mom of 5 grown human kids, so patience is my middle name. Professionally, I’m a work-from-home journalist (higher ed, travel) and happy to work from yours if your animal wants more companionship than just a drop-in visit. See photos of kittens, puppies and bunnies serving as editorial muse beside my laptop. I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule, can do drop in visits or even work from your home for the day while hanging out with your pet(s). Let's talk about your needs! Animals know the people they can trust -- they might be entertained by pizzaz, but they sidle up against the calm, patient, consistent presence. That's me. I'm a mom of 5 nearly-grown children, so I understand order and systems, and will be a quick learner of yours.
“Katie was great! She provided very quick responses to any questions, and getting the pictures was nice. I also appreciated her willingness to take an extra step (feeding a fish!) after I did not bring it up when I first met with her.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 16 years old. I am now 22 with three cats of my own and a love for taking care of furry friends!!🐈⬛🐕 I am currently a college student available from 1-6:30 every weekday. After 4 pm on Saturday I am available and all day Sunday! My whole life I have been called an animal whisperer, as I get along with any animal I interact with. It brings me a lot of joy to care for pets and make owners feel secure in their decision to hire me. I am very detail oriented when it comes to their routine and will ask questions to confirm I am taking care of your pet correctly.

“From the moment I met Lee I knew that my dogs would be in good hands. He was sending me photos of my dogs every time he went to visit them so I wasn't worried about them at any time. When I returned from my vacation I found my home clean and my dogs well taken care of!! I will definitely hire Lee's services again.”
“Our lab girl can be shy and nervous around strangers, Nataliia quickly made her feel comfortable. She was patient, gentle, and found the right way to Bella’s heart. We’re very grateful and highly recommend her!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Simsbury
Chava was absolutely amazing with our cats! She took such great care of them and treated them with so much love and attention. We received plenty of updates, photos, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that our cats felt comfortable and happy with her. She is kind, reliable, and truly cares about the pets she looks after. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter and will definitely book with her again in the future. Highly recommend! ❤️🐾
Katherine really stepped in to help at the last minute due to an emergency. She was on time and took great pictures. Dependable and was able to figure out everything with minimal, last minute instructions. Definitely highly recommend her! She gets an A+ in our book!
Lynn is very pleasant, attentive, and reliable. She promptly communicated with me and reached out when she had questions, which made me happy to know she would ensure our cats received the best possible care. I felt comfortable knowing my cats were in good hands while we were away, and they were happy and healthy when we returned home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Simsbury on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 1,104 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Simsbury. 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 Simsbury. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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.
