“Jenna was great. Super communicative, very attentive during the meet and greet, and sent regular updates for both my pets. I would definitely have her house sit again!”
“Emily was amazing with our two dogs. Sadie and Bruno were so well cared for and Emily sent updates and pictures throughout her time with them. Bruno is a bit scared of new people and Emily was patient and did so great with him! I highly recommend Emily!”
“Jennifer goes above and beyond, helps with watering the plants as well as making our little lady feel loved and safe while we are away. It’s hard being away from our dog while we are traveling but we know Ilsa is having a great time without us because she’s with Jennifer.”
“Randy did an excellent job taking care of our kiddos this weekend. He sent us frequent updates with photos and all our kiddos seemed happy when we arrived back home. We would definitely recommend him to others!”
“Ellie did a great job! She came to meet Breck a few days before we left. She came on time and sent us updates, even brought in the mail and put out the trash. I’ll use her again!”
“Isabela was great with our two dogs. We booked her for house sitting while we were away on vacation and our dogs were well taken care of. She stayed with them for long periods of time, not just quick check ins and we really appreciated that. She was also great with communication! Would definitely recommend her and plan to book her next time!”
“Erika took great care of our dog and cat while we were out of town for a week. She sent us daily updates with pictures, and when we got back home the house was clean. We really appreciate the care and peace of mind she provided!”
“Susan sat for us in our home while we took a 12 day river cruise in Europe. We have two dogs (one an eight month old puppy) and three cats. She did a great job accommodating all the pets need and the normal house chores like taking out the garbage and watering plants. She texted us when our garage door opener started making a beeping noise and we were able to work with her and a neighbor to get that resolved. She left the house clean when she was done. I definitely recommend her services.”
“Karen did an amazing job watching our Millie and Mylo. We really appreciated the daily updates and pictures showing they were being well cared for. We will definitely reach out to Karen if we need a dog sitter in the future!”
“Alyssa did a great job with our anxious doggies! They seemed very content when we came back from our trip which is a testament to how well she did with them and how comfortable they were with her. We will definitely look to her in the future!”
“Lilia was amazing with our rescue pup, Berkley! She is super calm and kind - we could tell our Berkley already felt comfortable around her the first time she met her! She sent us many photos throughout the weekend. She was very communicative and professional. We would recommend her to any friend or family member!”
“She was great with the animals even with our lengthy instructions. Took very good care of our house and sent pictures everyday with updates of what they were doing. Definitely recommend using her!”
“Shantanice was amazing! She took excellent care of our home and kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. Our dogs clearly loved her and were so happy and well cared for when we returned. We would absolutely hire her again without hesitation!”
About: Hi! 🐾 I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, rats, hamsters, guinea pigs, crested geckos, bearded dragons, and iguanas! I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and routines, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. Expect lots of love, attention, playtime, and photo updates while you’re away! 🤍🐶🐱🦎 I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of availability to provide your pets with the attention and care they deserve! 🐾 I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, litter box care, and plenty of cuddles. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule so they can stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you’re away. 🤍 Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. 🐾 I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, routines, medications, and household rules. I understand that every pet has different boundaries and personalities, so I’m patient and will always allow them to warm up to me at their own pace. I’ll treat your pets, home, and belongings with the same care and respect I would want someone to show my own. You can also expect regular photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! 🤍
About: I have cared for and owned animals of all shapes and sizes for my entire life, including dogs, cats, horses, gerbils, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, mice, pigs, and goats! I am very experienced in feeding, watering, cleaning up after them, administering medication and supplements, playing, and snuggling. I am also very active, so I would love to take your dog of any size on a walk or run! I'm currently working part-time and my schedule is very flexible, so I can easily work around your and your pet's needs! I will always treat your animals like they are my own, so their care and happiness is my number one priority, no matter what else is going on in my schedule. I am extremely clean, organized, and reliable. I used to work for the government with a Classified clearance, and I have been certified in CPR and First Aid. I am also very tech savvy and handy, so rest assured I will close and lock every gate, door, and alarm with ease.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, raising my first puppy on my family farm at 10 years old. Since then, I’ve worked professionally in a boarding facility where I supervised group play, monitored behavior, and made sure every dog stayed safe and comfortable. I also have hands-on experience in a shelter environment, working with animals of all temperaments, including shy, reactive, and high-energy. This has taught me how to read body language, build trust, and adjust care to each individual’s needs. I focus on creating calm, enriching experiences for all kinds of animals, whether that’s a structured walk, playtime, or just giving your pet the patience and attention they deserve. Please let me know if you have any questions in booking me for your next walk or stay! Caring for animals is something I intentionally build into my weekly rhythm. I am typically available Monday through Saturday and have a flexible, open schedule, so I can give pets the time and consistency they need throughout the day. I also run my own art business, which allows me to work independently and stay flexible. This means i’m able to be fully present for each visit, whether that’s a long walk, playtime, or a calm check-in for more sensitive pets. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every home I enter. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, boundaries, and body language so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar and low-stress. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s established routine. I’m especially mindful with shy or reactive animals, giving them patience, space, and gentle consistency to build trust. My experience in boarding and shelter environments has taught me how to read behavior, prevent conflicts, and create a safe, secure environment for pets of all temperaments.
“At our meet and greet, my first impression of Daniel was, he has a very calm demeanor. Murphy is a very large and energetic dog. Daniel didn't flinch when he came barreling in towards him. He stayed with Pebbles and Murphy for 3 days. He was very early the first day. His communication is OUTSTANDING! I received so many pictures and updates. He even took out the trash! On one day, one of the dogs had vomited before he got here. He sent me pictures and asked what I'd like him to do. The next text I got said that he cleaned it all up, and that there were towels in the trash that he brought with him. He is so prepared, punctual, responsible, and trustworthy. I'm so glad I found him on Rover. I will most definitely book him again if he's willing to come back. I can't say enough good things about Daniel. I was able to relax and truly enjoy my time away with my new grandson and not worry about our fur babies. They were in excellent hands.”
“Lilly was so great! She kept me updated with photos and stayed responsive throughout the stay. She left my home as she found it and even took the trash out! There was a crazy storm during her stay and she assured me the pups were safe and well cared for. Would love to use Lilly again!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Hampton is $48
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hampton
This was our first time ever leaving our Leroy over night. It was a huge relief having Billi looking after him! Billi kept us updated and sent many pictures to let us know Leroy was being well taken care of. We hope that any future trips we may have that Leroy cannot come with us that Billi is available. We will definitely want her to take care of Leroy again.
Billi is a fantastic find! My husband and I wanted to take advantage of an opportunity for an 8 day trip to Europe, but we were very reluctant to board our beloved boy that long. After a meet and great with Billi, I knew I could relax. Billi’s heart for animals shines, and her maturity and confidence was apparent. We received several check ins during the trip - with photos and videos - and came home to a clean house and a very happy dog. Thank you so much Billi!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hampton on Rover is $26.75 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 1,419 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across 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 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 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hampton. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
