“Erin was beyond amazing with Charlie. It was the first vacation we took where we came home and he wasn’t stressed out from missing us. The house was even cleaner than when we left it and Erin even left Charlie a cute toy and his favorite treats. We will definitely be booking her in the future. Thanks Erin!”
“Again, Sarah was wonderful in taking care of Lucy. She was available for my last minute request and managed everything well. She even watered my plants! Sarah always goes above and beyond. Lucy always seems very happy and content upon my return. I would highly recommend her.”
“From the very first meet‑and‑greet, I knew Carina was the perfect match for my boy, Sheppy. She connected with him instantly, and the peace of mind I felt from that moment only grew throughout my trip abroad. Carina went above and beyond while staying in my home and caring for Sheppy. She checked in regularly, shared the sweetest photos, and kept me updated in a way that made me feel completely at ease. It was clear she treated him with the same love, patience, and attention she would give her own dog. Carina is responsible, thoughtful, and genuinely gifted with animals. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I’m so grateful for the care she gave my boy. I would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their furry family member. I will be booking her again even without travel plans just to keep Sheppy and his new BFF Carina connected.”
“Allison was truly a blessing and if I ever need this service again, I will absolutely contact her! This was my first time ever leaving for multiple days and our planned sitter (a friend of ours) fell through shortly before our trip. Allison gave us the peace of mind that our dog's would be taken care of. She stayed with them for more time than I had even dared hope for and sent us regular updates. She was transparent, responsible, respectful and kind. Upon our return it was obvious that our dogs missed us but it was also obvious that they had been well cared for and treated with nothing but love and kindness. I can't possibly be even more thankful than I am.”
“Christine is a fantastic housesitter/petsitter! She took great care of our 14 yr. old Cavalier King Charles. She sent us cute photos of our dog throughout our 6 day vacation. She also kept us abreast of household matters. Upon our return we found the house in order. We recommend her and plan to request her services again!”
About: I have had 2 dogs for the last 6 years although one recently passed and have helped out with dogs since I was 16. Not great with cats but could watch it needed. I can administer medication as well as I had to for my dog. Monday and Friday I can use my lunch break for a visit, middle of the week days , I am available after 3, weekends are wide open I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space and our dog cannoli is very very friendly and will love to have a friend. She is up to date with all vaccinations.
About: We are a family of four! We have my kids 50 percent of the time- they are 9 and 7! We have a fenced in yard that the animals can run in! I work from home so I’m home majority of the day- I leave for some meetings randomly but not for too long. We are members at a great dog park in NH that we take our dogs to often especially with nicer weather! We have two dogs- A 3 year old Bernadoodle and a 2 year old long haired chihuahua. Both very friendly with other animals! We also have a 10 month Mancoon Cat who loves playing with the dogs and acts like a dog herself! We have been caring for animals for a long time and we welcome all types of animals into our loving family! We give our dogs a lot of attention and we will do the same with yours! I work from home and my job is very flexible. I will be home majority of the time and will be able to give a lot of attention and love! I have a full fenced in yard! I have a screened in porch also that provides some outside time when not in the yard! It’s a very safe area!
“Keirsten house sat for us while we were away for the week and made sure our 2 dogs were well taken care of. She was very good at communicating throughout the stay and sent plenty of pictures. When we returned home our girls were very happy and healthy and she left the house incredibly clean. Will definitely book again.”
“Jennifer was great - she came to our home for 3 nights that we were going to be out of town to take care of our 10 lb. chihuahua mix. The house was left spotless and our dog seemed like she had a really great time while we were away (which isn't always the case). We'll definitely be booking again for our in-home pet sitting needs.”
“Mikayla stayed with our active Jack Russell for 2 weeks while we were away. I never worried about our pup, knowing that she was being taken care of and played with. Mikayla shared updates and pictures, and answered promptly when I checked in with her. I recommend her without hesitation, we have never been so at ease while away.”
“Becky is wonderful with Buddy and he is excited when she comes over. I feel comfortable leaving him when she is there, she does a great job of sending pictures and asking questions to make sure Buddy is ok. Great job!!!”
About: I have two Australian Shepherds at home that I miss while being away at college, so I love any chance to spend time with dogs. I’ve had years of hands-on experience caring for them, including walks, feeding, and daily attention. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m a college student with a busy schedule, but I make time for pet care and am available on weekends and select weekdays. I also work part-time, but I’m reliable with scheduling and communication. I’ll have increased availability over the summer and can be more flexible then. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I follow all care instructions closely and make sure your dog feels safe and well cared for. I’m attentive, reliable, and happy to send updates while you’re away.
“We had a wonderful first experience with Melanie as our dog sitter. Our plans changed a few times, and she was extremely patient, flexible, and responsive throughout the process. She arrived right on time, stayed later than originally planned, and took excellent care of our dog. Melanie sent us pictures and regular updates, which gave us great peace of mind. She was pleasant, reliable, and very easy to communicate with. We highly recommend her and look forward to using her again!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have grown up around both dogs and cats. Whether it is keeping up with an energetic dog, taking them on a walk, or taking care of an attentive cat, I am passionate about making them happy. I have always been a go-to when it comes to friends going on vacation. There hasn’t been a time in my life where I wasn’t around a pet! As a student, I am currently on summer break, so I am available on a daily basis. I am available all day or night for care, walks, and check-ins. To ensure the best possible care for your pet I will familiarize myself with the home environment. I can utilize toys or tools you may have for your pet, or can even bring some of my own if need be! Able to walk around in neighborhoods or play in yards.
About: I have taken care of friends and families pets a few times over the years. I’ve walked dogs. Given meds. Refill food and water. I normally spend the overnights with the pets. Lots of pets and snuggles are always given. I do work 2 jobs so I would be there every morning for morning routines. On the days I have my 2nd job I will come back between jobs for check in and potty. I’ll come back and spend each night for nighttime routine. I work 2 jobs. I have time in between the jobs to do a midday check in. I am able to do overnights. I would be there each morning for morning routines. Midday check in between jobs. Come back each night for nighttime routine. Days that I don’t have my 2nd job I’d be in for the night after my first job. I will not be able to care for pets in my home at this time. I care for pets in a home by sticking to a normal routine. Let them out when needed. And most importantly give them lots of pets and snuggles!
“April is amazing and made some new friends! Gave Lilly her meds that she had just received the day before. Managed to get Molly to give up some socks (a task I struggle with!) and and sent Proof of life pics ! I would definitely recommend April”

I couldn't be happier with Allison. She and our dog Suka had an immediate connection which put my mind to ease right away. I was very relieved that Allison would be working remotely from our home and spending that extra time with Suka. It gave me peace of mind knowing our fur baby and home were in such capable hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hampstead on Rover is $79.92 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 4,890 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hampstead. 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 Hampstead 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 Hampstead 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 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!
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.

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.
