You need to use what's called a selector.

You can read about them and get a tutorial from this site.

Keep in mind that there really isn't a concept in Android as "hover" since you can't hover your finger over the display. But you can create selectors for, say, when a button has focus. Normally a button can have three states: Normal, Focused and Pressed.
