“Hannah was fantastic! She took very good care of my two fur babies. She was a great communicator as well. There was a little glitch with her ability to get into my house, and Hannah remained calm and figured out the situation before I even had a chance to respond to her text. I highly recommend Hannah!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better friend for Honey! Lots of walks snuggles and play time. And pictures and videos showing just how well she was being cared for. 100% recommend Ronny for your pet sitting needs!!”
“This was the 2nd time Melisha watched our fur babies & our house while we were out of town, and just like the first time, she did an amazing job! She was super attentive & kept in touch with us multiple times throughout each day. She also sent pics of our dog & cat every time she communicated. She also handled a situation between our dog and an unexpected groundhog in the yard, like a champ. I would definitely recommend Melisha. She truly is a pro with regard to pet sitting!”
“As always, Miss Lonnie gives so much love to the dogs and goes an extra mile to reassure us when we're gone. They miss her when we return home...Thank you!”
“Chloe is awesome! My pets were well taken care of and happy when we returned. She came over before the appointment so my dog will be used to her and she was super friendly, professional, and clearly loved animals! I will definitely be using her again!”
About: I’ve been pet/home sitting for 7 years with different families all over Maryland. My goal is to give clients ease and know their pets/home is in good hands! 😊 Since I work in the evenings, my mornings and afternoons are free to walk, play, or just keep your fur baby company while you’re away. And with house sitting, I’ll make sure your plants watered, etc. What started out as something I did to help our family and friends has grown to something I thoroughly love to do! While I do not have any pets of my own, I know there is great l responsibility when taking care of animals . My promise is to keep your pets in the safe environments you’ve provided/created for them.
About: I have several years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals. I am currently pursuing my education to become a Small and Large Animal Veterinarian and specialize in Animal Psychology and Internal Medicine/Oncology. Through my experience, I have developed strong knowledge and skills in pet training, dog walking, proper nutrition and feeding, and medication administration. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work a part-time job on Mondays, Wednesdays, and every other Saturday from 2:30 PM to 8:30 PM, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for my pet care clients. I keep my Rover calendar up to date to accurately reflect my availability, though occasional changes may arise. If you don't see the dates or times you need, I encourage you to reach out anyway—I’ll always do my best to accommodate your schedule and provide exceptional care for your furry family member! I do not offer in-home boarding, but I am happy to provide care in your home. I strive to maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. When possible, I am available for extended stays, which can provide added consistency for your pet’s care and fit well with my schedule. I also recommend that clients leave detailed care instructions, as every pet has unique needs, routines, and preferences.
“Destiny took great care of our three pups, Dolly, Brewster and Clifford! When Clifford had an upset tummy, she handled it calmly. She cleaned him up and kept me updated the whole time. She was thoughtful about keeping the dogs safe, like closing the bathroom door so they couldn't get into the trash. I'd happily book her again!”
About: As a lifelong dog lover and owner of a friendly mini golden doodle, I specialize in dog walking, pet sitting, feeding, and care. With experience caring for dogs of all sizes, I provide a safe and welcoming environment for your furry friend. Pet-friendly and full of love, I'll give your dog the attention and care they deserve! I'm currently working full time but Monday-Friday I'm available after 5. Depending on how early, I can do the morning on weekdays too. I’m available all day and night on weekends. When I am with your pet, it will be loved all the way until you return. There are already dogs that live with me, and they will learn to love your dogs. There isn't a fenced in area, but I always have the dogs on a leash and watch them carefully.
About: Having the background of being raised on a farm has given me an innate love for animals. I have become a go to person for my friends and family in the city with not only dogs, but farm animals as well (cows, goats, pigs, chickens, rabbits etc.). I have experience with injured and ill animals as well in care taking. I am able to follow dietary restrictions and diets in general as well. Pets, cuddles and walks are no problem of course! :) I currently work from home (Thurmont, M-F 8-5) so I am very flexible with me being in home for either a whole work day, half day or drop ins (if close by). I cannot board in home. I am able to follow the direction of your pets care. Food schedules/diets, crating, walks etc. I keep every pets area clean and tidy so they feel as comfortable as possible. I simply ask for communication ahead of time in expecations.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats my entire life. I have pet sat for family and friends since I was a teenager. I have done a little of everything from potty breaks, walks, to over night stays. I do have a full-time job 9-5:30 but have time in the morning, evenings, and weekends. Also my job will have a remote option in 2027 give me more flexibility. I take the time to ask the best way to keep your pet safe and what a typical day looks like for your family. I can walk dogs, let them out into a yard, and crate them if needed. Nothing is too much for me I have been around a lot of pets with different needs.
“Annalize is a great provider who demonstrates compassionate care for animals. We left three dogs, two cats, two chinchillas in her care for the weekend. One of the dogs is very elderly and needs a lot of hands on care. Annalize brought it, and kept everyone cool, comfy, fed, and happy. I would recommend her highly.”
“Hannah was flexible with some last minute schedule changes. She did a great job of caring for Ripley (my dog) as well as my chickens. She communicated throughout my time away. Would definitely use her again in the future!”
About: I am a lover of all animals and will treat yours like my own. I was a Dog Trainer at Petsmart for 3 years. I have two dogs, two horses, and a cat of my own. We live on a farm that opens up to the woods so we love to exercise and we also love to hit the trails at Solider's Delight or the Westminster pond. All sizes and breeds are welcome. If they need special care or medication, I am also able to assist with that. If there's any other pets in the house, I am knowledgeable with most. You’re welcome to call and check in at any time, and you’ll receive text or email updates daily. I hope you will consider me in your search to find someone to care for your pet family. I work full time, but happy to help your family out with the furry, feathery, or scaling member of the family just like my own. Just like my own! I try to stay as organized as possible, so a list to go off of is preferred! I'm happy to spend time caring for your pet.
About: I have loved animals my entire life. At 8 years old, I got my first kitten and have been caring for animals of all kinds since then. I've even successfully hatched praying mantises! I have handled special needs animals, including cancer patients, and I am a quick learner. Happy to administer meds and do basic grooming as well (brushing, nail trims) if your animal is cooperative. I love cats, dogs, bunnies, and reptiles and am open to sitting for most any creature. As an entrepreneur, I am super flexible, so I can almost always work with your scheduling needs unless I'm traveling for an event. I can even make multiple visits per day or do overnight pet/house sitting. I am an avid cuddler and will be your pet's ultimate companion while you're gone. I am highly empathic and am currently studying feline reflexology. Your animal's comfort and serenity are as much of a top priority to me as their physical needs. I will love your baby as much as you do and will do my absolute best to keep them happy and safe for you. After all, animals are family. 🫶🏼
“We happily had Laurie spend a long weekend with our 2 dogs at our house and everything was great! She sent lots of photos of the dogs and they seemed very much like they enjoyed themselves. She even got my picky dog to eat. Respectful with the house and we returned to happy dogs and a clean house.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 841 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
