We have a morning hamster who prefers out of cage time in the morning. My retired OH always has his morning coffee in the company of "his" hamster. She climbs on his feet when she wants back in her cage.

Hamsters do communicate with us humans but it can be very difficult to figure out what they want.
Often enough it's a matter of trial and error.

Could be to do with timing. If practical, you could let her out in the morning and see if that works better for her.

Another one of ours who "claimed" me as his human bar chews when he sees me but doesn't necessarily want free roaming time. I let him out of his cage and sniff around on me for a bit while i talk to and stroke him. He usually settles after a bit of attention.

Maybe you've already tried allsorts of things and i'm just jabbering on.
