“I am so glad we found Anna to take care of our dogs while we’re away. She sent me daily photos, updates, and communicated any questions or concerns in real time. I have a puppy who is very anxious/skittish around new people. Anna recognizes her body language and works with her to meet her needs at her comfort level - by the end of Anna’s stay at our home, my puppy was willingly sitting in her lap! She doesn’t do that for ANYONE so to me this is an excellent reflection of the way my pets were cared for while in Anna’s care. She did a great job following their routines and went above and beyond to keep them happy while we were gone. My home was treated respectfully and in the same condition I left it when I returned. We already have Anna booked for another stay and look forward to working with her again in the future.”
“Barbara was a true professional while spending the week at our home with our Doberman Kingston. Kingston has never been without his mama, and Barbara made sure to give him the love he needed and keep my wife’s nerves at ease with pictures and videos showing he is in good hands and doing just fine. We will use Barbara every time Kingston needs a sitter.”
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’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.
About: I’ve house sat for a number of families for almost a decade. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, puppies, and turtles! I can manage multiple animals at once, and have been known to complete a few home chores in the process. I am reliable and hard working and love sending you pictures of your fur babies while you’re away so you can see how they are doing! Communication is the most important key to house and pet sitting. I look forward to working with you and your family! My typical schedule: Work: Monday, Wednesday, Friday - Sunday School: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday ** I have a few hours in between classes so depending on how close the sitting location is I can do a check in or walk! ** I always make sure I am at the pets home if I am not at work or school so they constantly have company, or if they require outside time or an emergency I am there. I enjoy sending photos of pets to their family so they can see how their baby is doing! I have experience administering medications and following specific feeding routines.
“Sam took great care of my dog while I was away. Gave consistent updates and also reached out if she had questions about anything needed. Highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone to genuinely care for your animal.”
About: I have always had a passion for pets since I was little. Once I reached high school I started taking care of pets for people in my surrounding areas. I would love to expand my experience and work with your pets while I am here in school! I am currently a student at CNU with free time in between my classes. I have time during the day, in the evenings and over the weekend. I have a very flexible schedule so I am able to help your needs. Unfountranly I can not do care in my home but I am able to travel to yours. I have reliable transportation so that will not be an issue!
“Breeona was the Perfect furbaby sitter for my Bubba boy. He's an old soul so needs a little special care. She brushed him, spent quality time and I was thrilled to come home to a clean house! 5stars!”
“Great job. I could tell Peanut was treated well and on schedule with her walks when we returned from our trip. Erin was very communicative, kept us up to date and the house was great when we returned. I will definitely use her again.”
“Jennerifer was 20/10. We were struggling to find someone who would stay at our house and hang out with our kids. From the moment we met Jennifer she was so kind, professional, organized, and clearly loved animals. Her communication was phenomenal from the meet and greet to the moment we came home. I cannot recommend Jennifer enough. We will 1,000% be asking her to come back in the future!”
About: I’ve cared for neighbors’ and coworkers’ dogs on and off for about 7 years. I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, including seniors. I currently have a 16 year old Dachshund, so I understand the extra patience and care older dogs may need. I treat every pet like family and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I work 7-4 at Langley Air Force base so depending on how far it is from base I could stop by during lunch but if not I can stop by during the week before 7 and after 3:30 pm. During the weekends and holidays, I should be free whenever to care for your pet! I live in a comfortable apartment with an enclosed patio where pets can get some fresh air and relax. I’m also happy to take them on regular walks and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout their stay. I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home!
About: I’ve always loved animals and I started studying animal care from a young age. I have had many different pets throughout my life from mice, hamsters, and guinea pigs, to cats and dogs. I have a shelter background with experience as a foster for puppies, kittens, seniors, and sick animals. I’ve also had professional training as far as safe handling, engaging exercise and enrichment, and ensuring all interactions and transitions are as stress free as possible.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hampton
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.
Clara was more than wonderful and so kind and caring with our corgi Francis, who suffers with Degenerative Myelopathy and has special needs. We knew from our Meet & Greet when Francis immediately responded to her that they would enjoy their time together. We felt more than comfortable leaving him with Clara and knew that if there was ever an emergency, she would handle it with the utmost professionalism and care. Clara's training and experiences makes her excellent in working with all kinds of animals. She was punctual and asked key questions about Francis' needs and what was required during her visit. We would give her the highest rating of any of the excellent Rover sitters we have used. We hope to be able to have her sit with Francis again soon.
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!
Cassaundra was absolutely wonderful. She kept me updated with photos while we were gone and made sure our animals were loved and cared for. She also went the extra mile and cleaned our house which looked even better than when we left it! Will definitely book her again to house sit when we’re out of town.

The average cost of House Sitting in Hampton is $38 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $67 per night.

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 , 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 .
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 .
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.
