“I'd give more stars if I could! From the meet and greet via Zoom, to pre-stay communication, to pictures during the stay, Bobbie was absolutely fantastic. She was professional and reliable and may have treated our dogs better than we do! Just kidding... sort of. We'd use her again in a heartbeat.”
“Michelle was so great with our pups! We came back after a long weekend away to a clean house and tired pups! They seemed to love Michelle and we can’t wait to have her back again!”
About: Hello, and nice to meet you! I’m a full-time Rover sitter and dog walker, and I take this work seriously because pet care is not just a side gig for me. I dedicate my time to giving each pet the care, attention, and routine they need to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have 10 years of experience caring for dogs and am also open to caring for other animals. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, learning their personalities, and adapting my care to fit their individual needs. Book with me if you’re looking for a sitter who is reliable, communicative, detail-oriented, and attentive. I’m happy to provide detailed updates during your pet’s stay, walks, or drop-ins, including photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. If you love detailed reports, I’m your person! ;) For boarding, I like to provide a mix of enrichment, play, and relaxation depending on your dog’s personality. Some activities may include fetch, find-it games, snuffle mats, puzzle toys, walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of rest. If your dog is more of a lazy potato, that’s perfectly fine too — they’ll get a cozy, calm environment, affection, and whatever helps them feel most at home. I value your insight as the person who knows your pet best, so please feel free to share their routine, preferences, quirks, comfort items, triggers, medical needs, or anything else that would help me care for them well. The more I know, the better I can make their experience. I also have a 5-year-old Corgi of my own. She is playful, chill, and delightfully lazy. She is well-mannered, well-behaved, and used to being around many different dog personalities and breeds, from Greyhounds to Maltese Shih Tzus. She enjoys having dog friends over and is generally a calm companion. Her one little quirk is that she may bark excitedly when she hears the doorbell because, to her, that means a new friend has arrived! I look forward to meeting you and caring for your furry family member with the same thoughtfulness and attention I would want for my own dog. :) I do Rover full-time, so pet care is part of my everyday routine, not something I squeeze in around another job. I’m typically available during the times pet parents need help most, especially during business hours for walks, drop-ins, and daytime care. Because this is my full-time work, I have the flexibility to provide consistent care and accommodate many different routines, including walks, drop-ins, boarding, medication schedules, feeding instructions, potty breaks, and other special requests. I do my best to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I may not have a large fenced yard, but your dog will still have plenty of opportunities for safe, supervised outdoor time. I don’t believe in just putting dogs outside and hoping they entertain themselves; I prefer to actively engage with them through walks, sniff time, enrichment, and play. There is a trail right behind my house that leads to a park, and I live in a quiet neighborhood with a large open field nearby. Dogs can enjoy walks, fresh air, and extra space while safely on a long leash. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure the basics are covered: food, water, potty breaks, exercise, comfort, and attention. I’m also happy to provide plenty of photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing throughout the day. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and try to leave the areas I use tidy, including food spaces and litter boxes.
“I cannot recommend Mark enough. I was nervous leaving my babies and elderly father for a week, but Mark had everything under control. He gets it! He is responsive, on-time, caring, organized and puts one's mind at ease. He is also very trustworthy. We look forward to working with Mark again. Thank you SO MUCH.”
“Leslie took care of my little senior dog Chester when we had to go out of state for a weekend. It was comforting having somebody we could trust and who communicated well with us watch our dog while we were far away. He got to hang and play with her kids too for extra attention. I didn’t worry the entire time we were gone, which is the best feeling!”
“Lisa stayed in my apartment for a long weekend. I received pictures of my dog, Phoebe, updates and check ins. She communicated well and Phoebe was very happy after her stay.”
“Rory was amazing with my Duchess. Being a giant she can intimidate people as well as she is nervous to meet new people. Rory and Duchess bonded quickly after introductions and I trust my girls instincts. He was very professional and was very flexible and accommodating for my spoiled Duchess’s needs. I will be rebooking with Rory with all my future fur baby sitting needs.”
“Carolyn was fantastic! She loved on my dog so well and I felt completely comfortable leaving her in Carolyn's care. She was prompt with the timing of her visit and was quick with her communication. She played with Jeans the whole weekend. And to top it off, we came home to a clean house and even clean sheets! I will definitely book with Carolyn again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.”
About: My family dog passed away in 2024, since then I’ve filled my doggy-shaped hole by volunteering at Coco’s Heart (dog rescue) and house/dog sitting for families in my area. I work from home, so I’m able to give your animals their much-deserved attention throughout the day! My experience ranges from young puppies just brought to rescue, teenage dogs, to senior dogs, all needing special attention in their own ways. I am punctual with medications, meals and bathroom breaks. I currently work from home, and while house sitting am able to provide around the clock care. For walks or part-time, my schedule may vary slightly. Maintaining and respecting my client’s home is of upmost importance when caring for pets. Keeping not only their environment clean and safe, but the owners as well is important to what I offer. Whether it’s expected or not, I will leave the place the same, if not better than you left it. I strive for frequent communication and avoid outside environments that may stress pets out.
“Natasha was wonderful with our senior dog, gave meds, and lots of kind attention. She was incredibly organized and communicated on all direction. Natasha stayed in our home and retrieved the mail, organized packages, took out the garbage, etc. Wow! We could not be happier or more confident in the care she gave our dog. We will definitely be asking Natasha to care for her again!”
“Amazing!! That’s all there is to say. We’ve gone thru a few different dog sitters recently due to life changes and we are so impressed by Eliza! She truly takes care of your dog like it’s her own. We were gone for two weeks and had not used her so was a little nervous but she was great! We will be reaching out again!”
About: I grew up being around dogs my whole life. We typically had at least 2 and they have always been treated as family members. I lived with a cat in college and brought my own baby home shortly after. We have two cats at home, and I would love to spend even more time with animals!! I work full time and live in the same city. Depending on the weekend, I don’t typically have a lot going on and would love to be around animals more. I am pretty active so I would gladly take walks! We have two cats that are strictly indoor. They basically have free rein of the house. I understand that pets can be reserved around unknown people, so I am willing to build that trust and just hang out if needed.
“Lisa was outstanding with our dogs. She loves your dogs like they are her own! She is great at communicating, trustworthy, and responsible. Also our house was cleaner than we left it!”
About: I have been animal sitting, more specifically dog sitting for two years consistently now, but have taken care of animals for 10 years. I tend to take on extended stays, which include taking care of the home. The longest stay I’ve had was two months for two sweet yorkies. Not only can I take good care of your animals, but my job as a nanny has honed my house keeping skills! I have two mini Aussie-doodles and an orange cat at home, my pride and joys :) all animals deserve a lot of love, and doing this job is a total win for us both! I am timely, clean, organized, and I LOVE taking soooo many pictures of all of the animals I get to meet. Meaning I will be sending you lots of photos you can treasure while you are away and when you get back! I am available for boarding any day of the week! I work 7:30-3 PM on Monday-Thursday, and 7:30-1:30 PM on Friday. I do not get a lunch break, so the animal would need to get through the day without being let out until after the above times. I am not busy without my out of work lifestyle, meaning I would be in the home (for boarding) when I am not at work. This would exclude time for going to the gym. Drop in’s are available any time I am not at work! After chatting and meeting with my clients, we will find the perfect routine for your fur baby! I understand each animal has a different daily routine and has different needs, so I can accommodate to that! I ensure quiet, playful, and gentle environments with lots of pets, cuddles and attention to keep the animals stimulated and happy.
“Michelle did a great job with my 4 animals. Took them and their care in stride. Shared the right amount of updates and made it feel good when I got home, everything was as tidy as I'd left.”

Maiya is fantastic! Great communicator and worked really well with our sweet pup. She not only took great care of our Cleo, but also our home while we were away. We highly recommend her- even though we selfishly would love to gatekeep her. ;) Thank you Maiya for everything. We look forward to working with you again in the future!
Leslie was absolutely amazing with our two Boston Terriers, Gracie and Gus! From the very beginning, it was clear that she truly cares about the dogs she looks after. She took the time to get to know both of them and made sure all their needs were met. I felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care — she kept us updated, and it was obvious that Gracie and Gus were happy, safe, and having the best time. They went on fun adventures and came home relaxed and content. It’s such a wonderful feeling knowing our pups were so well cared for and loved while we were away. We can’t thank Leslie enough and will definitely be booking with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hudson on Rover is $26.75 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,038 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hudson. 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 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.
Tip: 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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.
