About: Ever since i was a little kid i’ve been around all sorts of animals. Growing up i had multiple cats, dogs, reptiles, and other animals. i have always had a passion for caring for animals, and i have 4 years of experience working at a doggy daycare/boarding facility and dog sitting! i am very well versed in animal behavior and body language, and i am also very experienced in medication administration, including shots, as i have a three year old diabetic kitty who receives shots twice a day! i can guarantee your fur baby will be treated just like family with me :) I am a part time college student currently, so I can be super flexible with scheduling! During the summer I am generally completely open, and during the school year I am still totally open besides some morning classes! I am experienced in working with easy and difficult dogs with compassion and patience. i have studied animal behavior in my free time and enjoy working with animals to reinforce good habits and behavior, doing lots of exercise and enrichment time, and of course a lot of cuddles and love!
“Once again, Erin was such a lifesaver in helping watch Sprocket last-minute while I was at work. She took such wonderful care of him while he was sick. Definitely a huge relief for me knowing I didn’t have to worry. So thankful!”
About: I grew up around animals of all kinds, but find myself most comfortable with dogs and cats. I have two dogs and three cats currently, two of the five being seniors. I enjoy catering to my furry friends and would love to help yours! I’m a stay at home pet mom after sustaining a leg injury in March so I have a very flexible schedule and am looking to fill my free time helping people by assisting them in caring for their pets. My yard is fenced in for my senior husky and senior Yorkshire Terrier. My dogs are also crate trained so I am familiar with crating animals and following schedules. Both my dogs and cats are on a feeding schedule which I strictly follow. I am familiar with routine and prioritize safety and comfort.
About: 5+ years of walking dogs + dog sitting. Worked with all sizes and ages, and in multiple dog households. As my Great Grandpa was a vet, I have been around animals ever since a young age, and have developed an unconditional amount of love for them. I am currently a full-time student at UNCW and have classes everyday throughout the week. I am completely free majority of weekends and majority of weekdays besides times during class. I love to go on a walks and being outside with my dogs and would love the same with yours! I am also a huge snuggler and will give your dog all the love it deserves while you’re gone!
About: I love being active and playing so your pet will get enough active play time. I used to have five dogs of different breeds of my own that I cared for in a previous relationship. I care for other pets of all breeds and sizes as if they were my own. I give treats/rewards for good behavior. I don’t mind getting down on the ground with them playing or just relaxing with them. Either way is fine with me. Your pet has an individual personality just like a human. I will be happy to send you pictures of updates on your amazing pet. I’m sure they’ll have a great time with me. My dream dog is a German Shepherd. I am currently available weekdays Monday-Friday all day long. So I have a pretty open schedule as of right now. I appreciate all of you! Thank you for booking with me! I keep pets on a routine schedule so they know what to expect and when to expect it. Staying active with walking, playing, or even just watching tv with them is all fun to me. Pets love rest and cuddles too :)
About: Hi, my names Imani and anyone who knows me will say I love animals!! I’ve grown up with animals since I could remember! I currently don’t have animals of my own so i get my fix by caring for others !! I can’t wait to love on some of your furry kids! I do have a full-time job but im off on the weekends and evenings are free, which makes it perfect for overnights or weekend drop ins! I care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, making sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and the BEST care while you’re away. I’m happy to keep their normal routines, provide outside play and walks when needed, give lots of cuddles and attention, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

“Courtney has been my go to sitter and hasn’t disappointed once. Every time I see the pictures of my baby girl she looks like she has been the happiest she has ever been. Great job Courtney thanks for all the help!”
About: Growing up, I took care of almost all of my four pets' (two dogs, two cats) needs until I recently moved for college! I also cared for horses for the past two years! I have experience with puppies and senior dogs, through several years of paid dog-sitting and cat-sitting experience. I can handle meals, administer medication, take pets on walks, as well as being a source of company for the animal. I truly love animals and would love to help you! I am a full time student at UNCW! However, I have a lot of free time, especially in the afternoons and evenings. I can be flexible! My current apartment doesn't allow animals, so I am looking for dog-walking and petsitting opportunities within the clients home! I can keep the environment clean and secure while caring for your animal.
About: I have taken care of animals for the majority of my life whether that be nursing stray kittens back to health, assembling special meals for my dogs specific health requirements, or pet and house sitting for friends and family members so they could take a well needed vacation. I have always held a deep love for animals and a career where I can be around them all day sounds more like a dream than a job. While not a certified dog trainer I do have experience with training puppies for small tricks such as sit, place, stay, down, etc. and would be happy to teach your fur baby as I take care of them. As a full time student I have a very open schedule with asynchronous classes that allow me to be there when your fur baby requires. I make sure to keep my pets on a regular schedule with grooming, food, vet visits and play sessions so they may have the best experiences as they grow and develope.
“Milena was a great drop-in sitter for my cat. She kept me updated and sent pics at every visit. My cat can be shy at times but judging by the cute playing and snuggling pics my cat really liked Milena! I would highly recommend her”
About: I’m a mother of two daughters and a grandmother of one grandson and I have my own Pomeranian though I don’t bring her to other pet sits. I’ve been around animals all my life having been raised on a farm for part of my adolescence. Animals feel comfortable around me. I’m new to the area and I’m looking to help out those in the area by doing something fun that I enjoy well providing some financial abundance for myself during my settling down in Wilmington. I’m an energy, healer, spiritual guide and Empowerment Coach Looking to help you help me in return :-) I won’t be caring for any dogs in my home, but I am more than happy to go to yours where I’m sure your pets would be most comfortable at while I care for them.
About: I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable pet parent who understands that pets are family! I’ll make sure your furry friend feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, feeding, or giving extra cuddles, I’m happy to provide personalized care based on your pet’s needs. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving hands, and hang out with more dogs! I am currently working Part Time at a dog training company, with a set schedule. I am happy to fill up my time off with walking dogs! I have a large fenced yard with my very friendly pups of my own. We have two broken down crates that can be used if needed, and lots of other accessories

About: I’ve been pet sitting for 4 years and have worked with all sizes, breeds and ages of dogs. I do drop ins, house sitting, and walks. I also am in the process of becoming a service dog trainer. I’m a college student at UNCW with a light class schedule, so I have plenty of flexibility throughout the week to care for pets. I’m able to work around my classes and am completely available on weekends. My schedule allows me to be flexible with walks, drop-ins, and other pet care needs. I have a dog park located at my townhome where pets can safely play, exercise, and get fresh air. I make sure they are always supervised, comfortable, and cared for. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special needs.
About: I have had my fur baby now for 8 months. He’s still a puppy and lots of fun! I have fostered a few pups this year and enjoy spending time with dogs. I work from home during the week and I have time to give your furbaby non stop attention. My building has its own gated dog park and a park for lots of exercise during the day. I enjoy grooming at home, playing with toys and training with delicious treats. I would treat your fur baby just like my own lil guy (Tino)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Hampstead is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $26 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. 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 1,344 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Hampstead. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Hampstead 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!
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 .
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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 , 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.
