“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!”

“Alyssa was fantastic! I have a house full of different pets, and she did a fantastic job managing all of their unique scheduling and dietary needs. She kept us informed of how things were going, and the house looks like she wasn't even here ( with the exception that she cleaned the litter boxes and took out the trash even though we didn't ask her to do so). Will definitely be booking with her again!”

I highly suggest booking her, your fur babies will be well taken care of!😊😊”

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to four adorable cats and two kind-hearted, animal-loving children. Growing up, my home was always filled with furry, feathered, and scaly friends — from my loyal German Shepherd to curious hamsters, chirpy parakeets, gentle iguanas, and, of course, lots of sweet kitties. With a lifetime of hands-on experience and a deep respect for all creatures, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. Whether it's a weekend getaway or a long vacation, you can relax knowing your pets are in loving, experienced hands. I am a teacher, and will be home for the summer beginning mid June and going through late August. My availability this summer will be quite open. I am a dedicated, special education teacher, who would love nothing more than to take care of your pet’s needs in the evenings and on the weekends during the school year. During the summer, I am available mornings, afternoons, and evenings to care for your fur babies. We currently have four indoor only cats, who are comfortable with respectful dogs. I am trustworthy, respectful, honest, and always strive to do the right thing. I am someone you can count on to provide care either in your home or mine for your beloved pets.

About: I have years of experience dog-sitting and cat-sitting for friends and clients, often staying at their homes to make sure pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. My friends and clients trust me to care for their pets as if they were my own, and I'm committed to providing the best care possible! My schedule allows me to visit or walk your pet after work, Mondays to Thursdays (7 am or 6 pm), and anytime from Friday to Sunday. I am also available on weekends, Friday to Sunday, for house pet sitting, so your pet will have plenty of attention and care even if you're away for an extended period! With years of experience in dog-sitting and cat-sitting, I understand the importance of creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I follow a consistent routine, ensuring pets feel secure and comfortable, and I take precautions to maintain a safe space within your home. I'm committed to reliable communication, sharing updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. By allowing each pet to approach me at their own pace, I foster trust and a positive bond, ensuring they feel comfortable and relaxed in my presence. Your pet's safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities.

About: I have had dogs of all sizes in my life-from mastiff to dachshund. From puppy to senior. I have plenty of experience administering medicine, giving baths and caring for pets. I work from home and am available to take care of your pet(s) after 12pm. On the weekends, I am pretty open to take care of your pet whenever you need so long as I am not out of town. I live in a townhouse complex so it would be best if I came to take care of the pet at your home. There is also a fenced in dog park just down the street from my house that I would plan on frequenting so long as you're comfortable with me taking your dog there.

About: A forever-friend of animals and pets of all sizes. Experienced, friendly, reliable and flexible. Looking forward to meeting your pets and providing care and companionship for your loved ones. I am pursuing a degree part-time and have a flexible work schedule. I am centrally located in Middletown, CT and am willing to drive within about an hour of there to provide care. I like connecting with you and your pet before sitting to develop rapport and to get an understanding of their routines. I like to mirror the way you provide a safe environment for them within your home. This offers a sense of consistency and calm in what may sometimes feel like a stress-inducing situation for your animal. Their safety and health are the priority while they are under my care.

FAQs for House Sitting - East Hampton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in East Hampton is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $69 per night. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 1,499 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 , 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 .

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 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.

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

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
