“Jenna was very accommodating to our last minute need for a sitter. We have two fairly large dogs and she got a long great with both! She was punctual and sent photos daily. I would absolutely use Jenna again.”
“Anna is terrific! We have not used Rover before and were a little hesitant with someone staying in our home when we plan on going on vacation. Several weeks before our trip, Anna Mei came to our house and spent about 2 hours with us and our dogs. That was a great way for us to get to know each other and see how comfortable our dogs were with her and she with our dogs. At her suggestion, we spent one night in a hotel as a trial run while she stayed with our dogs. Everything went really well, and she kept us updated on what was going on. She definitely earned our trust, and we are relieved that we found a reliable sitter for when we are on our vacation. We will definitely request her again. Thanks Anna!”
About: I've taken care of pets from dogs to lizards since I was 12, and have been doing drop-ins and house-sitting for family, friends, and my community for as long as I've been able to drive. I'm able to give meds for older dogs with more needs, and have trained my own dogs well in obedience training, so I have plenty of experience with a firm voice for more unruly dogs that need a little extra attention. I'm good with all animals (even the wild ones), and have experience caring for animals that need to stay separated, and am willing and able to adapt to any family I need. I currently am between jobs, the only duty I have is taking care of my own pets (amd occasionally younger siblings) so I have plenty of time to look after and care for pets I have a gentle hand and a firm voice, and have experience with obedience-training dogs particularly, and have faith in my ability to care for even the more unruly of pets. I am comfortable with crate-training and crate-trained dogs, as well as shutting them in their own room when no one is present in the home. I also have good leash experience, so walks would be easy and comfortable for me.
“Emily was FANTASTIC! Our cats felt soooo loved and Emily was great with communication, sending pictures, and just loving on them. Can't wait to reserve our next session with her!!! FIVE STARS!”
“Rodney came to my rescue! Recently I had to go to the ER during the night and I was worried about who would take care of my dogs in the morning. I was able to contact him around 7:00 a.m. so he could come over and take care of the dogs. Potentially it could have been an overnight, but that wasn't needed. It was so wonderful to know that my dogs would be well cared for before and after my return home! Usually he just comes for a drop-in visit every other week, but this required more visits. The dogs are still getting used to him, but he works very hard to get them to trust him and it is paying off. Thank you, Rodney!”
About: Skills include: medication application, IV fluids, walking, playing, vet appointments, pregnancy assistance in birth, feeding, cleaning, bathing and most importantly cuddles! (Cuddles with consent of course) I have a remote job that doesn’t take up a lot of time so I am usually available and I have a love and passion for caring for animals and pets! I love animals and I had a cat named Precious for 18 years. I got a job at a vet hospital not only because I loved pets but because it was best for Precious. I was able to give her the best quality of life through my job and she sadly passed away in 2025. She was my special girl and I am ready to start caring for animals again. They matter a lot to me and I can’t bring myself to get another cat so I figured all the love and care I have in my heart, I should use it for good and help others in taking care of their precious babies. I’ve learned a lot while working at a vet hospital as well.
“Barbara was truly wonderful! Everything about our experience with her was perfect. We had a lovely meet and greet where she came to our house and met our two dogs, who instantly loved her! She stayed with them for four days/nights while we were away. Talk about going above and beyond the call of duty! Gus is a very old, enormous Rottweiler who needs help getting up from the floor. Barbara was totally willing to help this dignified old guy up, and also guiding him outside (he is deaf and partially blind). I could see that Gus felt very safe and comfortable with her, which is not the case with everyone since he feels very vulnerable now in his elder years. And our youngster Sammy who is a bundle of energy, was ecstatic to have a new friend who would play with him. Unfortunately Sammy had a bad tummy during the weekend, and Barbara was up with him several nights, making sure he was comfortable and taking him out for frequent relief walks. During my time away Barbara sent pictures and updates throughout the day to put my mind at ease. This was my first time leaving my precious fur babies with anyone other than a family member, and I was nervous, but Barbara did everything she could to make this a very special experience for all of us. When I came back, both dogs were totally bonded with Barbara and Sammy especially did not want her to leave! We will definitely be using Barbara’s services again!”
“Trevor was attentive to my highly active german shepherds and two cats. He left the house in great shape, and walked the dogs willingly, which ive never had another pet sitter do before. He was inquisitive about the house and responsive if I had any questions. He was extremely communicative throughout watching them as well”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and currently have two cats of my own & previously owned a medium sized dog. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets while you’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding, playtime, walks, litter box care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! I work mornings and am typically off by noon, so I have plenty of availability for pet care in the afternoons and evenings. I occasionally have afternoon appointments, but my schedule is flexible and I’ll always communicate my availability in advance. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m attentive, patient, and respectful of your home, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of care, attention, and love while you’re away.
“Mia was great. She took top notch care of our dogs. She was a great communicator and kept us updated with pictures while we were out of town. She was very tidy. Exceeded all expectations.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and many other species since I was a young girl! I recently have gone to vet assistant course and worked at Banfield for a year or so. I am currently a trade student available Monday through Thursday after 3 pm. I am also open to Friday through Sunday varying times upon request! I have experience in shelter kennels as well as veterinary and my own life experience. I am comfortable with all sizes and breeds. I am good with feedings/walks/play etc!
About: I have personal experience from caring for my own dog, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and maintaining a consistent routine. I understand how important it is to provide pets with patience, attention, and plenty of love. Pet care fits naturally into my routine through caring for my own dog. I’m available to provide attentive care around my work schedule, especially on weekends. I will follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and medications if needed. I’ll provide plenty of attention and companionship while keeping their home clean, safe, and respected.
About: I love helping people and if that means caring for their fur babies while they’re gone, then I’m more than happy to help! I’m always the first person my friends/family call when they need a sitter! I work at a dental office so I have more than enough time after work to care for pets! I will be in school starting the end of August so I’ll have even more time! I have 2 cats that are strictly indoor. They are fed Costco rotisserie chicken every morning and dry food in the evening. I also take them on walks in their backpack as long as the weather is nice.
About: I’ve previously owned both dogs and cats and understand the responsibility that comes with caring for pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and keeping pets safe and comfortable. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual routine and needs. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I own and operate a pressure washing company, so my schedule is flexible and I’m able to plan my days around pet care. My business naturally slows down during the winter months, giving me more availability during the week. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention and care they need. I care for pets by following their normal routine and their owner’s instructions closely. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention and playtime, and regular walks or bathroom breaks when needed. I keep their environment clean and safe and give each pet time to feel comfortable around me. I’ll also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know how their pet is doing.
“Tiffany was amazing with our two huskies. Her experience in animal welfare and with the breed gave me so much peace of mind. She followed the instructions I left for her to care for our babies perfectly and we came back to two happy dogs. She also sent a lot of cute pics and plenty of detailed updates! Thank you so much Tiffany, we will definitely be booking with you again:) Highly recommend!”
About: We’re sisters—Elizabeth (37) and Racheal (15)—who love caring for pets of all kinds. Together we provide reliable, loving pet care: walks, playtime, feeding, litter-box/scoop, and medication when needed. We have two dogs and two cats ourselves that are a range of sizes and ages, and we have experience with confident dogs and more reactive ones as well. We will respect your pets' needs and love taking care of them. Dependable, punctual, and great with shy or energetic pets. Happy to send photos and updates. During the summer we are available at any time, any day, so we'll be glad to stop by any time your pet needs us! We will always leave your home the way we found it, and make sure that your pet is as comfortable as possible. Whatever guidelines you give us for how to handle your pet and your home will be followed exactly!
“Halley was awesome! Super responsive and very kind. She treated our house with respect and our little beagle was a happy fella when we got home! Hoping to stay in touch with Halley for our dog sitting!”
“Lisa did an amazing job house sitting the week we were out of town. She was very accommodating with our last minute request/booking, and was very knowledgeable on working with pets, therefore streamlining this whole process. She was very communicative and always kept us in the loop of the wellbeing of our pets while we were gone. As a house sitter, Lisa displayed many signs of etiquette and respected our property. All-in-all, I'm in a much more calmer state of mind knowing that whenever I need to take vacation, I know who to call. Thank you so much Lisa! <3”

I work a full-time day job, but I'm free evenings, weekends, and holidays. Exceptions are on a case-by-case basis with advanced notice of at least two days. I am willing to stay overnight with your pet. Willing to negotiate special pricing. I’m comfortable caring for pets with all kinds of personalities and needs, including providing baths, medications, playtime, special feeding, and plenty of companionship.

She took very good care of my dog well I was out of town and sent plenty of pictures and updates as well. She took the time to get to know me and my dog at the meet and greet and it eased my mind immensely. Since this was the first time I have let someone I didn’t know watch my dog.I will definitely book with her in the future.
Trevor was attentive to my highly active german shepherds and two cats. He left the house in great shape, and walked the dogs willingly, which ive never had another pet sitter do before. He was inquisitive about the house and responsive if I had any questions. He was extremely communicative throughout watching them as well
Leah took such wonderful care of our elderly cat and dog for 6 days. Our animals love attention and need human interaction. Leah spent so much time with them and took such great pictures of them while we were away. The animals were so happy and we couldn’t be more pleased with her service. She followed feeding instructions perfectly and made our animals feel so loved. We definitely recommend Leah and will use her again in the future.
I could not have asked for a better dog sitter!!! She went above and beyond with the care she provided to my baby!!! From the moment I met her at our meet and greet, it was evident how knowledgeable and experienced she is with pet care. She didn’t bat an eye at the extra care Luna needs for some health issues and she was comfortable administering Luna’s medicine. I had complete peace of mind while I was out of town with the many updates, pictures, and even videos Ashley would send to me!! I cannot recommend her enough!!! I will definitely be using her again! Thank you Ashley!!!
Courtney is highly recommended! She’s wonderful with my girls and takes great care of them! She’s able to travel a bit from her home and is able to work from your home so just ideal for a pet sitter! The girls and I would be lost without her! She’s GREAT and we love her lots!
Thank goodness we found Kynleigh when we did! Kynleigh went above and beyond to make our five year old, often a handful, labradoodle, comfortable (and happy :) while we were gone. She sent pictures and videos every day and we even came home to a clean home and sheets-- thank you, Kynleigh! We will be using her next time and feel fortunate we now can!

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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.
