“Shannon was absolutely amazing! We felt completely at ease during our vacation, knowing our dogs were in excellent care. She provided frequent updates and photos, which we truly appreciated.

“Nikki was great with our dog Lucy and went above and beyond to keep her comfortable during two anxious nights in a row due to fireworks over a holiday weekend! She followed all our instructions and comforted Lucy and made sure she was well taken care of! We look forward to having Nikki stay with Lucy in the future!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life! Friends and family have always said that I’m an animal whisperer. Since I can remember, I’ve taken care of neighbors, friends, and family pets. I’ve worked at a doggy daycare for 3 years spend a majority of my time with animals! I am a recent college graduate and am exploring this new phase of my life. If you leave your pets in my care, I can assure you they will receive constant love and attention! I am a recent college grad looking to dive head first into my pet sitting business! My schedule is currently wide open as I also search for my first post-grad career! I have a lot of experience working with pets and can deal with practically any temperament! I feel comfortable learning your dogs daily routine and staying in your home, as long as you are!
“Christine is a wonderful dog sitter! She stayed 9 days with our 2 high maintenance dogs and took excellent care of them. Christine’s communication both before and during our trip was exactly what we needed to feel comfortable. She sent pictures of our boys daily and sent us updates on their behaviors, eating, sleeping, and general wellbeing. It allowed us to relax and enjoy our trip!”
“Emily and Sarah were amazing with our dogs while we were away for the week. They not only cared for our pups with love and attention, but also kept the house spotless and treated our home with respect. We especially appreciated the daily photo updates—they gave us such peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
“Stephen took amazing care of my dogs and my home while I was away. He provided lots pictures and updates of my dogs while I was gone. I would highly recommend Stephen to anyone who needs a reliable pet sitter.”
“Darylin was fantastic with Spanky, my 2 year old Basset Hound! It was the first time I’ve ever left him with anyone other than my son. She was great, sent me pictures, updates on his eating and treats. I would highly recommend her. Spanky was well cared for and very happy!!”
“Jennifer was reliable and came through last minute when another sitter cancelled. Took great care of the house and animals and was responsive while we were gone sharing pictures. Highly recommend.”
“Rebecca is incredibly reliable, caring and phenomenal with my dog Cash. I trust that when she’s with him, she is giving him all the attention, multiple walks a day, and she even takes him on adventures while they are together. Cash gets visibly excited to see her each time and it’s easy to see that he loves spending time with her. When I’m away I have all the peace of mind knowing that Cash is in the best hands. Rebecca always leaves my house better than she found it and makes sure Cash is fed, cared for and exercised! I can’t recommend her more for help with animals!”
About: I currently own 3 rescue dogs and have grown up with dogs my entire life. I have a habit of loving what some would call "bad" or "untrainable" dogs. My dog, Ham, frequently lunges and nibbles my face. I am used to being jumped on and it doesn't bother me. Although I try to correct the behavior, I understand some dogs are just goofy. I adopted Toast when he was about 12 weeks old, so I have experience with puppies. My oldest dog is currently 15, so I'm great with senior dogs as well. I have experience walking, playing, boarding and doggy day camp. I hope that I can fit your needs :D I currently am a freelance artist, so I'm home pretty much all the time. I have a flexible schedule and am extremely punctual. I have a great schedule for animal care and love animals :D I have a fenced in yard with 3 dogs living here full time. if you want to board your dog with me or do doggy day camp at my house, they will need to either be a good with with my dogs OR stay with me in my office during the day and be let out individually.
About: I have had dogs in my home since I was in fifth grade! My family and I currently own a dachshund:miniature pincher mix who is missing her back paw!

My schedule can fit yours and I am happy to accommodate your needs. I firmly believe that my dog and your dogs are a member of the family and should be treated with the same love and care as anyone in the home.

“If I could give 10 stars I would! Elizabeth is absolutely amazing with pets and I highly recommend having her care for your pets. She was so engaging with all of my animals and sent pictures and updates, she’s incredibly kind and genuinely cares for your animals. She even came another time for me when I asked last minute and she was more than helpful to us. I am very grateful I found her and her services and will be using her again. Thank you so much Elizabeth!!!! ~Alyssa, Ben, Lili, Max and Lana <3”
“This is the second time Elizabeth has taken car of our pets. They seem to love her. She left the house in good shape and sent lots if pictures. We don't worry about the cat and dog when Elizabeth is there.”
“Kimberly has a beautiful energy that the dogs responded well to. I could tell from the photos she sent that they were having a fabulous time playing with her. When I got home they were safe and sound and relaxed...and even a bit tuckered out, which was perfect considering I'd had a long day!”
“Michelle was awesome. She took care of Dulce making her confortable with her, playing with her in the backyard and eventually with walks around the neighborhood. Dulce was her happy self when we came back. We look forward to Michelle taking care of Dulce again this coming April.”
“We were really lucky to find Carol! She took great care of a grumpy, elderly Shih Tzu and was clearly patient with my old lady. I received regular updates and photos, and she reviewed all of the crazy instructions for Coco’s care. She also left the house in great shape! I would highly recommend her!”

She even addressed a plumbing problem with the house when there was an emergency. Great pet sitter and house sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in East Hampton on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,537 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across East Hampton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred East Hampton walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in East Hampton maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in East Hampton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
