About: I grew up with dogs, cats and horses. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to check in with, feed and play with their pets. I work full time during the week. I am available for those who enjoy going out on Friday nights or on the weekends! I’m available after 2pm on Friday's and all day Saturday & Sunday. I am very active and enjoy going for long walks and runs. I have a fenced in yard and one friendly small dog that loves to play and run around. I have an indoor porch where my animals and yours can stay separate if need be. I am able to comfortably crate your dog if needed.
“Eric is super reliable. He shows up on time and he is very gentle with my anxious dog, Boo. She takes time to become comfortable with new people, and she is off to a good start with Eric.”
“Holly is great! She’s so kind, caring, and understanding. I had the opportunity to puppy sit for Milton. Milton is wild and crazy and she was nothing but calm and amazing energy. Holly will definitely be my go-to sitter/ walker. Thank you, Holly!”
“Julie-Ann was so great with our dogs, so communicative with us, and so thoughtful that it's hard to express our gratitude. Both dogs are rescues and they obviously fell in love with Julie-Ann. We came home to two relaxed and happy pups. The house was well cared for and we are very very happy customers.”
“Chelsea did an amazing job caring for my dog, Rue! From the moment we connected, she was professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Rue was in such great hands. Chelsea kept me updated, treated Rue like her own, and went above and beyond to make sure she was happy and comfortable. I couldn’t have asked for a better dogsitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving pet care. Five stars all the way!”
About: I love animals and caring for them I love playing with them and making sure they are comfortable, happy and healthy pups as they should be. I only work at my other job for two days so I have plenty of time off my week to petsit whether its dogs or cats or any animal at all! I love all animals and consider myself almost an expert on animals. I allow them to feel free to roam anywhere in my home as long as I can see them and my environment is very safe for them and comfortable.
“Jennifer did a great job staying in our home and taking care of our dog. She communicated very clearly, gave good updates (with photos), and our dog seemed happy, relaxed, and well taken care of when we returned home. We would absolutely book here again to dog and house sit”
“Paulina was absolutely fantastic! I was so happy to receive updates while she was looking over our fur baby. We needed a sitter super last minute and honestly we couldn’t be more grateful. Paulina was super attentive and sweet! Definitely recommend 🩷”
About: Hi there! I'm Amanda, and I'm a 43 year old lifelong animal lover & animal behavior nerd, that has been providing occasional petsitting and housesitting for friends and community for about 15 years in the metro Boston, Atlanta, & Asheville areas, and now petsit full time for cats, dogs, and small animals. I even have experience working at an animal hospital assisting veterinary technicians and doctors with testing, medication, grooming, first aid, and general care! I grew up with a Siberian husky, fish, and guinea pig, along with family that bred rottweilers, and have done rescue work and fostering with husky, malamute, and pug rescue groups, as well as sitting for dog breeds ranging from rescued pit bull terriers, to award winning toy, miniature, & standard show poodle breeders, to paraplegic rescue mutts, to great danes trained as mobility service dogs, so I have extensive experience with dogs of all sizes, activity ranges, and temperaments. As a huge nature lover and avid hiker, I'm always delighted to take your pup (or kitty, if leash trained!) on woodsy walks daily! While I am not a certified trainer, I'm familiar with many training methods and understand daily training needs as well, so I'm very happy to assist and continue with training during sits, whatever furry, feathered, or scaley species your babies may be! Cats are an absolute joy I've come to adore, having lived with many over the past 15 years, and recently gotten to live with and help raise a tiny kitten for the first time! I've worked with diabetic cats, giving daily injections, as well as numerous cats & dogs with various oral medication and special mobility needs, so I'm comfortable with all sorts of special needs furbabies. Over the years I've been fortunate to learn so much more deeply about and work with small pets like rabbits and guinea pigs, and love caring for these gentle creatures. I have some experience living with and caring for chickens, parrots, snakes, and lizards as well. While avian and reptile care is still somewhat newer to me, I've developed quick rapport with the few snakes, lizards, and parrots I've had the pleasure of meeting and caring for over the years! I have minimal experience with horses and livestock animals, but I do have some and very willing and excited to learn more. I do have a couple minor physical limitations due to lower back problems; I have medical restrictions on lifting over 20 lbs or working bent over for long periods, so despite my active lifestyle, I am unfortunately unable to work with animals over that weight limit that need to be lifted, carry large bags of food, litter, etc. I am totally able to break down bags of food/litter and moving them in smaller containers though, and do normal household chores like trash, laundry, and cleaning without any issues. As I haven't used Rover a whole lot for my work, I can also link you to my Trusted Housesitters profile via message to see my many 5 star reviews from other pet parents! I am currently petsitting full time. I do occasionally pick up some additional work, however the hours are on my own time and completely flexible, so my schedule can be fully adjusted to the needs of your pets and home. I LOVE house sits, especially long ones, and working with pets where they're most comfortable, and am willing to travel for extended sits! I also have extensive gardening and general basic home maintenance experience, so am happy to care for your home & garden during house sits. I currently offer full time, professional, highly experienced pet-sitting in my clients' homes, and have no pets of my own (my previous career unfortunately just wasn't suitable). I will happily walk your pup (or kitty! Or ferret, or iguana, you name it!) a few times a day, including longer walks and hikes if desired, and plenty of cuddles and playtime. I have considerable dog training experience, so can offer some continued training support if there is anything you're working on as well.
About: Hi! I just really love dogs. I sadly can’t have my own right now, so being able to care for yours is the next best thing. I am a homebody, love nature walks and being outside, and I live on a quiet street with a large backyard with lots of room for a dog to play and run. I have experience with all sizes, ages, and temperaments of dogs. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so plenty of time for walks, parks, play, and cuddles. I love having a pet to care for because it gets me out of the house and active :) Your pet will be treated like a king/queen and spoiled with so much attention and love. Depending on your requests and your pet’s activity levels, etc. we’ll do multiple walks a day, and other adventures (if you are comfortable) like parks and hikes.
“Jacqueline took excellent care of our two goldens while we were out of the country for two weeks. I was very nervous to leave our girls for so long but she sent us photos and updates nearly every day and respected our home completely. Hire her! You won’t regret it.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Hudson is $63

Wonderful! Kelly’s dog behavior knowledge, attention to detail, and friendliness is unmatched. She sent lots of pics and videos to make us feel at ease during our vacation. Every picture and video, we could tell everything was as good, if not better than if we were home with them. I could not recommend anyone more!
Jen was super great with our older dog. It was our first time using an in-home sitter, and it could not have gone smoother from meet and greet to the last update. When we returned home from our trip, there were clear signs that our pup was well taken care of and not stressed (an issue we’ve had with regular boarding in the past). Would book again and refer to friends!
Ashley did an exceptionally good job house sitting for our Aussie, Nova during our recent trip. This was Nova’s first time with a sitter and judging from the photos that Ashley sent us every day, Nova had a ball. We had asked Ashley to water quite a few plants, fill the bird feeders and birdbath, take in the mail, etc., and she followed our instructions to a tee. She contacted us with a few questions which were glad to see. Ashley was diligent about removing ticks from Nova and Nova’s coat looked silky and well-brushed when we returned. She left the house spotless and even washed her sheets and towels and made the bed without being asked to do so. Ashley is intelligent, personable, mature and responsible. We will definitely invite her to care for Nova again.
I had a great feeling about Anastasia from the moment I read her profile, and she absolutely lived up to it. My two 100+ lb dogs can be a handful, but she took on the booking with confidence, and everything went smoothly during her week with them. We received consistent updates, and they always looked happy and relaxed. When we returned, they were not only happy and calm but even better behaved, which really says it all. I would highly recommend her to anyone!
I am a CEO with high standards. I can not say enough good things about Carlos. I met him because my 15 year old Cav is on his last road and I travel a lot. Carlos was meticulous about prep and our dog's issues, meds, needs, situation, etc. He took detailed notes of our conversations and came over to meet in person before either of us committed. I just returned from Asia. Carlos texted every day I was away - with photos!! He is extraordinarily skilled at vet medicine because of his job. The dog's issues were fewer when I returned -and - Carlos had weaned him down on his meds as well. It was amazing. In addition, Carlos truly loves my dog. When I got home he had left a portrait of my dog he had taken and framed - a gift to me. Lucky to have found him!

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 Hudson 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 Hudson 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 Hudson 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.
