“Felicitas was absolutely amazing! We needed a sitter last minute to check in on our dog while out of town, and she was very accommodating. She sent us lots of videos during each check in visit, and we felt very comfortable leaving our fur baby in her care. Our golden doodle Benny absolutely loved her and we will definitely book with her again :)”
“Laurelyn was an amazing sitter for our three cats! She sent updates and pictures which meant so much for us as we missed our babies. We will definitely try to book with her in the future, can’t recommend enough!!”
About: Hello! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly enjoy caring for them. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for years to help with feeding, walks, check-ins, medications, playtime, and overnight care. I’m reliable, detail oriented, and patient, and I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities. As both a pet owner and healthcare trained professional (prior military), I prioritize safety, communication, and making pets feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, feeding care, and check-ins throughout the day. I do my best to maintain each pet’s normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m dependable with communication, punctuality, and following detailed care instructions for each pet’s individual needs I care for every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medications, walks, litter box routines, and any household rules or special instructions provided by owners. I understand that both cats and dogs have different personalities and comfort levels, so I take a calm, patient approach to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I also provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind so you always know your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for (if requested).

“Kimberly really took a load off my mind while I was away. I was traveling with my Mother and I was able to concentrate on making her experience great instead of worrying about my pup back home. I would recommend Kimberly to anyone who needs a compassionate, trustworthy care taker for their pets. I was very pleased with her service... A+++++ ;-))”

“Lisa did a great job taking care of my cats while I was out of town. I had a last minute change of plans and had to find a petsitter on short notice.

My family is military and when we were stationed in New Jersey, I regularly offered pet sitting for many military families that can attest for my quality of care. After moving from New Jersey to here in Virginia I worked at care a lot pet supplies in the boarding and daycare section for 2 years and then ended working at a vet office in the kennel.

About: I love animals, and I would love to start getting out of my house more. I have been taking care of pets since I was 12, and would love to get back into it. I am good at basic training things such as : sit, stay, lay down, and I can also teach them to play dead. I don't mind feeding them or bathing them either. I can't wait to meet your fury companions! I have two littles and would love for us to start getting out of the house. I am basically always free, and would love to take care of your fury family members! I have fenced yard if I were to have your pet at my home. I also have a female dog who is super energetic while outside. I own a dog crate as well, just in case.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hampton
Emilie was amazing with my pups! 🐶💕 She took such great care of them and made sure to spend time playing with them and giving them lots of attention. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for while I was away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly great with dogs. I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her! 🐾
Alexis was great! Very accommodating and took wonderful care of my babies while I was away for the weekend. I loved the picture updates and she was very communicative and showed concern for one of my babies who’s a little antisocial, timid, and scared of everything lol. She handled them both well and with care. I already look forward to trusting her with my babies for future needs! Thank you Alexis! From myself, Snow, and Otto.
Renee was amazing. She gave us complete peace of mind while we were away from our babies. Our big pup can get anxious, but Renee was so great with her. And her communication was great! We miscounted the food we left and she communicated early enough that were able to order the food to the house without any interruption. Will for sure be using her for future bookings!
Ashley did such an amazing job taking care of our 2 cats, Nala & Luna!! She followed my instructions for their meds & food to a T! Both cats loved her & enjoyed their extra attention, treats, & playtime while we were away for a week! Ashley also brought any mail or packages in & took our trash & recycle out to the curb on pickup day. I thoroughly enjoyed all the updates & pictures at every drop in visit! We will definitely be having Ashley watch Nala & Luna again!! :)

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hampton is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,499 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hampton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hampton. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
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.
