“Madison is an excellent sitter! She stayed at our home for 7 days with our two very large and excitable dogs. This is the longest we have ever been away from them in the almost 9 years we’ve had them. We were very anxious as these dogs are our children. Madison was thorough and went above and beyond to make sure that us and our boys had a good experience. She did brushing, gave medication and helped them brush up on some of their training skills. The boys loved her, and her updates gave us great peace of mind. She left our house very tidy, and was considerate of our space. This was my first experience with rover, and Madison knocked it out of the park. Tucker and Toby can’t wait to have her back next time. 100/10 recommend Madison for your furry friends. ❤️”
About: I’ve had pets every day of my life, from cats to dogs of all sizes and personalities. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I love making each pet feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, administering medications, and providing companionship tailored to each pet’s needs! I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to be with your pets. I do not have any animals of my own and I only work In my home, pets are welcomed into a safe, comfortable space with plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I keep their routine consistent so they feel right at home. In a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely—feeding, walks, play, litter, or medications—while giving pets the same care and affection they’d get if you were there. I also make sure your home is respected and left just as you like it.
“Braelyn is fantastic! She watched our senior dog for 2 days and kept us updated from start to finish. Our dog takes daily medications and has unique quirks, and Braelyn handled everything perfectly and made us feel totally at ease. We came home to a very happy pup and a clean house. Highly recommend her and can't wait to use her services again!”
“Great dog and house sitter! I would absolutely have them over again! Very communicative and responsible. Left our place very tidy. Pepper got lots of attention and exercise.”
“I enjoyed meeting Tammy and Sophie did very well under her care. She was prompt, texted me when she would arrive and took Sophie for a walk as soon as she arrived. She also took her for a walk right before I got home which eliminated the need for me to walk her when I got home in the dark. Tammy has a very interesting background having been a raptor rescue volunteer. She had some interesting stories about rescuing owls for a wildlife rehabilitation program.”
About: Hi! I’m a high school teacher and lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both cats and dogs. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me over the years to help care for their fur babies, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, or simply helping pets feel safe and comfortable while their humans are away. I’m calm, dependable, highly detail-oriented, and understand how important routines and communication are when it comes to pet care. I’m especially comfortable with cats and small to medium-sized dogs, and I’m always happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away, or just so you can see their sweet little face. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone truly trustworthy, attentive, and kind to care for your furry family members. As a high school teacher, my schedule is very routine-oriented, which makes me dependable and organized when caring for pets. During the school year, I’m generally available evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks, with more flexible availability during the summer months. I do my best to work with each pet’s established routine so they can feel comfortable, safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, attentive, and respectful to care for your fur babies and your home. I approach each pet based on their individual personality, comfort level, and routine, whether they’re highly social and energetic or more shy and independent. I’m highly detail-oriented, dependable, and always respectful of feeding schedules, medication instructions, boundaries, and household expectations. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away, while still getting a glimpse of their sweet little face.
“Angela did a great job taking care of our boys while we were away! She sent updates and pictures. We didn’t have to worry knowing she was with them. We will definitely request her anytime we’re going out of town. Highly recommend!”
“Eric was able to jump in fairly last minute to watch our girls when other accommodations fell through. Eric was a great communicator, logistics were easy and our girls had a great day with Eric. We are super thankful!”
About: I’ve lived with pets my whole life, and have experience caring for both cats and dogs of varying difficulty levels. I can handle dogs of any size and energy level, having grown up with a very high strung Vizsla and a small rescue. I am gentle, caring and will always do my best to ensure that your pet gets the best care possible. I am currently a student at Western Washington University, so i will have plenty of time in the mornings and evenings to ensure that your pet gets the utmost care. While I don’t have space at home to crate or board your pet, I am happy to take them on walks in the many beautiful parks and forests around Bellingham, or play with them in their home yard or house. I am also always happy to sit and snuggle with your pet to comfort them while you are away.
“Zoe was great! She filled in a last minute booking after our pet sitter cancelled. Above and beyond in pet care as well as leaving our space better than when we left! The animals loved her and we definitely would have her back!”
“Willow did a fantastic job staying in my home with my Ziggy. She had clear and quick communication. She left the house very tidy and Ziggy enjoyed his time with her. Thank you Willow!”
“Kelcy is amazing with Ru. She's a great communicator and works collaboratively to problem solve when Rufus doesn't want to walk or listen. I trust her in my home and with my dog, and am so grateful I found her!”
About: I'm a 25-year-old full-time student who was born and raised on beautiful Whidbey Island, where animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up around all kinds of animals. I've actually used Rover before and had some wonderful experiences caring for pets, but life got busy for a while. Now I'm excited to jump back into pet sitting and get back into the swing of things because, honestly, spending time with animals hardly feels like work! Whether your dog is tiny enough to fit in a purse or large enough to pull a sled, I'm happy to care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Shy pups, energetic zoomie experts, senior sweethearts, and attention-seeking cuddle bugs are all welcome. As a full-time student, earning a little extra money on the side is always helpful, but the real perk is getting to spend time with amazing pets. It's honestly one of the best side hustles I can think of. When caring for your pets, I treat them like family. I'm responsible, dependable, and respectful of both your home and your pet's routine. I'm comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and making sure your furry family members are safe, happy, and loved while you're away. My promise? Your pets will get plenty of attention, care, belly rubs (when approved by management), and companionship. And I'll probably end up sending you more photos of them than you asked for because they're cute and I have no self-control. I'm currently a full-time student taking online courses, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to stop by and care for your pets throughout the day. I understand that trust and safety are the most important parts of pet care. When caring for pets in a client's home, I always follow the owner's instructions closely to maintain their pet's normal routine and ensure they feel comfortable and secure. I treat every home with respect, keep doors and gates secure, provide regular updates, and pay close attention to each pet's behavior and needs
About: I've been an animal person my whole life; from originally wanting to be a vet (decided to pivot due to the sadness that probably comes from being a vet) to caring for pets of my own. I've always felt I've been able to understand animals better than most people. I think it stems from my ability to innately understand their non-verbal communication. Hence, the Dolittle reference. A typical day in my home is calm, comfortable, and centered around the pet’s normal routine. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, a clean space, plenty of attention, and time to play or relax depending on their personality. I’m happy to follow any specific routines you have at home so your pet feels as comfortable and familiar as possible. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box or potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions from their owner. I also pay close attention to their behavior and comfort level, giving them plenty of affection when they want it and space when they need it.
“Meagan was fantastic with our two cats! She left our cats and house in fantastic condition after her week long stay with them. She was quick to respond and sent lots of pics as requested. She was great about communicating any question or requests.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 595 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.
<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.
