About: I grew up in California on a cattle ranch. I've been caring for all types of animals since I was young. I absolutely love pets and promise to treat yours like my own. I currently lost my 15 year old coonhound, Nelson and want to spend time with your companions to fill the void Nelson left behind. I love to stay active and miss my walking companion. My neighbors and friends like to rely on me for help with their pet needs including weekend stays, morning and evening walks and making sure everyone stays on schedule with feedings. Since growing up on a ranch I have been conditioned to administer medications including shots to our animals. If you have a pet that is in need of attentive care while you are away, I am more than comfortable doing so. Friday -Sundays are free. My work hours are Monday- Thursday, 8am - 5pm. Weekends are best for round the clock care. I am used to waking up at 5 am to get a long walk in prior to work and coming home to immediately repeat that long walk. I prefer to stay in your home to care for your pets. I believe that when pet parents are away it is crucial to keep the pets in their same routine to reduce stress and anxiety. I love sticking to a schedule and routine.
“Mark did a fabulous job watching our dog. From the meet and greet to the final goodbye, Breck was in very good hands with Mark. I appreciated the great communication, and daily picture and video updates. Breck even had a playdate with Mark's pup. Mark not only took care of Breck, he also left our house in clean conditions. I highly recommend Mark for your pet sitting needs.”
“Ashton kept us informed daily with texts and pictures of our dogs as well as giving our dogs the comfort of staying in their own home. It truly was a great experience for our dogs and just knowing that they were well cared for. Will be using this service again!!! A+++”
“Michelle was awesome!! Extremely communicative and attentive to instructions. She asked good questions during our meet and greet that made me confident she would take great care of Odie! I don’t trust many people with Odie and I will definitely use Michelle again :)”
“Natasha is a gem! My pups and cat absolutely love her. She provides fun updates with pictures and left my home cleaner than I left it! Natasha is a sweet, kind and generous person. I’m truly grateful she is in our lives! 🙏❤️”
About: My life is National Dog Day. When I was little my dad was a breeder, so every summer we had about 15 lab puppies running around. I named one Buddy every time. I have over 20 foster dogs and cats under my belt and recently had a mama and 7 puppies in my home for 2 months. I can guarantee the ever important photo and video updates of your pet. Thank you for looking and feel free to reach out! Annie I currently work part time at a clinic. However, On days I work I am available early mornings and evenings after five as well as weekends! With my experiencing in fostering I’ve learned every dog has drastically different needs, wants and energy levels. Feel free to reach out if your dog has special needs and wants!
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.
“This is our maybe 7th time we’ve booked Katy, I’ve lost track lol. She is our #1 pet sitter! Does an AMAZING job. Goes above and beyond and sends multiple updates and photos. We trust her very much. Thanks Katy!! Mia already misses you”
“Briana was amazing with our two very high maintenance dogs even with some big last minute changes to their plans and care. Both of my dogs warmed up to her quickly and she took wonderful care of them. Absolutely recommend her!”
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.
About: Your pets are part of your family, and they deserve the best care possible. That's exactly what I give every animal I look after. I'm a proud cat mom to Salam and Binx, and I've been caring for other people's pets for years. I've dog sat for my family's goldendoodle for several years and regularly look after friends' cats. I also volunteered at Caring for Cats, where I got hands-on experience with cats of all personalities. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can easily fit visits and walks around your pet's routine rather than squeezing them in. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking for cats and small to medium dogs in and around Lake Elmo. You'll get daily photo updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you're away. I truly love everything about caring for animals, and I'd love to meet yours. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can easily fit visits and walks around your pet's routine rather than squeezing them in. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking for cats and small to medium dogs in and around Lake Elmo. I don't host pets in my home, so all of my care happens in yours. Your pet stays in the environment they know best, with their own bed, their own routine, and none of the stress that comes with a new place. In-home visits: Fresh food and water, litter box scooped or potty break handled, medications given as directed, and real time spent with your pet. Play, brushing, or a quiet lap sit, depending on what they're into. I don't rush in and out. Dog walking: Leashed walks at a pace that fits your dog, whether that's a brisk loop or a slow sniff around the block. I keep a close eye on other dogs and traffic, and I always clean up. While you're away: I'm happy to bring in mail and packages, adjust blinds, and keep an eye on things so your home looks lived in. I leave everything exactly as I found it. Before every booking I do a meet and greet so we can go over your pet's routine, quirks, medical needs, and anything that makes them nervous. I want to know where the leash lives and what your vet's number is before you ever leave. You'll get daily photo updates, and I'm always reachable if something comes up.
“We have a dog with a lot of anxiety and a cat that is apathetic about humans. But Kari won them both over!!! She is an incredibly caring person that obviously loves animals. She has my highest recommendation!”
“Beth was awesome. She took loving care of our 5 year old dog and 14 year old cat. We got pictures every day and updates on them. We already have her booked to stay with our crew in December! So glad we found her”
“Melissa was attentive with my pets, and they were very much at ease when I returned. She has a great deal of experience with animals, and she clearly enjoys being around critters of all kinds. She was a pleasure to talk with, and I wouldn’t hesitate to contact her again.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life. Currently, I have two dogs (Great Pyrenees and pitbull) and two cats. I have experience giving medication (pill and liquid format), as well as giving insulin, and even subcutaneous IV fluids. Because my dogs are so big, you bet I’ll be able to walk your dog(s) no matter their size! I love going to dog parks or just chilling on the couch for some cuddles. I also have experience with spicier critters who just need a little time and space. No matter how big or small, how old or young, I’ll take the best care of your babies. I work from home with a flexible schedule so popping over for play/potty breaks or house sitting for you during the work week is no problem. I’m available 5pm onwards and on weekends for sitting or more extensive care. I am flexible with my availability. I am very good at following any instructions you have for your fur baby when I come to your house. Anything you need me to do I’ll do it. The best possible feeling is knowing your animals are in good, safe hands when you’re not available to take care of them yourself and I promise to deliver.
“Amber was great! She gave us daily updates and pictures. Did great talking care of my 3 older dogs and giving the oldest her meds. The house was left tidy and she was very responsive. Would recommend using her to dogsit/house sit.”
About: Growing up with multiple dogs in the home, I am comfortable with dogs of all ages, dog dynamics, sizes, behavioral needs, and medical cases. I have been trusted by my neighbors and friends to care for their furry family members for over 10 years now, with 2 years of experience in a dog daycare setting. I will take care of your pups like they are my family. I work full time at the Animal Humane Society, with most afternoons and weekends off, and a lunch break that can be used to check in on your furry family. I have a car, and am also equipped with the basic care needs, aside from a crate. I clean up after any messes and make sure your family has everything needed before leaving.

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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Hudson is $27 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $49 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.

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.
