“Karen did a wonderful job watching our three cats and sent so many great photos and updates, which we really appreciated. She is responsive and conscientious, and comes across as a very gentle and caring person. Thanks again Karen!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better person to spend the week with our fur babies than Yareli! 😊 She sent us regular updates of their playtime, walks, and lots of cuddles. We came home to a house that was even cleaner than when we left it, a vase of fresh flowers, and the sweetest thank you card from her. We are so happy to have found such a wonderful, dependable person and hope to have her back in the future! ❤️”
“Corrine is amazing! My dog loved her from the moment he met her, and she’s great with him. She sent me updates while I was gone, even though it was just for a few hours. I would definitely recommend her to others, and will be asking her to sit again for me!”
“Oanh is an excellent pet sitter. My cat is very sensitive and has been through a lot, yet she handled him with so much care and patience. She followed every single instruction carefully and made sure he received all his medications exactly as directed. He truly loved her, which gave me so much peace of mind. She’s reliable, a great communicator, and updated me twice a day with detailed messages about him. I would absolutely trust her with Demitri again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: ’ve been a cat owner for over 10 years, so I understand the importance of reliable, compassionate care. While this is my first time offering pet care on Rover, I have plenty of hands-on experience with feeding, playtime, and keeping pets comfortable and safe. As a college student, I’m responsible, organized, and flexible with my schedule. I’m especially good with cats and enjoy giving them the patience and attention they need, but I’m also happy to help with dog walking, drop-in visits, and general pet care. I’m a college student here in Ann Arbor so my main time commitment is classes, but I’m very flexible outside of this time. I have Fridays and weekends open, as well as some mornings and evening throughout the week. I keep pets safe and comfortable by sticking to their routines and giving them plenty of attention. In your home, I treat your pets like my own and make sure everything is left just as I found it.
“Nikita had an amazing time with Denise again! I’m so grateful for having found such a caring individual to help look after my fur baby. Denise is very patient and loving to my girl—thank you a million for watching her!!”
“Melissa was an excellent communicator and easy to work with. She took great care of our dog and our home while we were away. Would 100% work with her again and highly recommend.”
“Milo did an excellent job watching our puppy while we were away! He communicated very well, sent us updates and photos, and kept the house neat. It’s clear how much he loves and cares about animals and we would gladly have him back to watch out pup!”
“Rafa exceeded all our expectations - and those were pretty high after reading his reviews! We got pictures every day of our happy Bernese - getting walks in the woods, and other neighborhood locations. He left our house absolutely immaculate - pup was even freshly groomed! He was also kind enough to send me a collection of “wallpaper” portraits of Boca - one of which perfectly captures his happy, playful spirit (and preference for life up-side down). We plan to keep Rafa on speed dial as our go-to house and pup sitter! Thanks, Rafa!”
“Molly did an excellent job watching our dog at our home. Our dog can be a handful, but Molly followed all our instructions to the letter and clearly knew what she was doing. She took great care of our house too. Everything was exactly as we left it when we got back. Communication was easy and reliable throughout the stay. I highly recommend booking with Molly. She will take great care of your pets and your home.”
About: I grew up with three dogs and have taken care of them from the puppy stage to old age. I am well-versed with elderly animals and not alarmed by the messes that may come with them. Pet sitting was often a summertime job for me in high school, and my love of animals has continued into adulthood. I have looked after cats, dogs and even frogs. The one thing every pet needs is a vigilant eye to make sure they are healthy and living their best life. If you hire me, you will know your pets are in safe hands. I currently am taking classes at WCC and work gigs in photography and other art fields. I have a fairly open schedule and am often able to adjust my schedule to your pets needs. I am not bothered by late nights or early mornings. I live in an apartment, but there is a small dog park in the middle along with several parks nearby. I love taking frequent walks and will make sure your dog gets plenty of time to play and work off their energy. I love to listen to what the animal is telling me. When they have energy and want to play it is time to bring out the toys, and when it is time for a nap I provide a quiet safe space.
“Elayna stayed with our dog Winnie for the weekend while we were away. As always, she was communicative and professional. Winnie loves her and her dog Bowie and we trusted that she was in great hands while we were away!”
“Rhiannon was absolutely amazing housesitting our 2 dogs, who are 3 and 8 years old, while we were out of town. She was very flexible in coming over to meet our dogs prior to watching them. Both our dogs loved her immediately. We definitely will be rebooking her in the future while we are out of town.”
“Hanaa did an amazing job caring for our golden doodle while we were away for 10 days. Our pup went on daily walks and had lots of playtime and cuddles. She was very communicative, responsible, and willing to go the extra mile. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to feel at ease about your pet being cared for while you are away!”
About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors dogs for years on end and I’m pretty free no matter what! Big dogs small dogs I’ve dealt with them all! I don’t work I’m a disabled artist that needs to put up stuff I usually dog sit for neighbors dog but not for long I have a lot of experience to take care of pets including dogs and cats because of my work and my home I make sure they are all doing good and listening to every introductions and also I love hanging around all animals
“We will 100% use Jonathan and Kayleigh’s services again! They were able to help us out on short notice, and both our dog and cat loved them. Even after we got home, our dog even checked the driveway for their car a few times, which to us, speaks volumes as to how well they cared for him 10/10”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my background as a licensed pharmacist combined with my genuine passion for caring for dogs. My professional experience has strengthened my attention to detail, reliability, and ability to follow precise care instructions, which is especially important for pets with medical needs. I am comfortable administering medications, monitoring for changes in behavior or health, and following specific routines provided by pet parents. I also have experience caring for both energetic puppies and senior dogs. With puppies, I focus on consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement to support basic training, leash manners, and house routines. For senior dogs, I prioritize comfort, gentle exercise, and close attention to mobility, appetite, and overall well-being. Whether your dog needs active playtime or calm companionship, I adapt to their individual needs to ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine as I work part-time as a pharmacist, which gives me a flexible and structured schedule. My pharmacy shifts are planned in advance, allowing me to reliably set aside dedicated time for pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits on my off days and around my work hours. Because my schedule is organized and consistent, I’m able to give pets my full attention when I’m with them rather than rushing between commitments. I enjoy starting or ending my day with walks, playtime, feeding routines, and check-ins, and I’m comfortable adjusting my availability to meet each pet’s needs when possible. This balance allows me to provide dependable, attentive care while maintaining a professional work life as a pharmacist. I would like to eventually grow this into a full time commitment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I carefully follow all instructions provided, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medication needs, and any special care directions. I treat every home with respect and make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other safety measures are handled responsibly to prevent any accidents or escapes. I work part-time, which allows me to be organized and dependable with my scheduling so pets receive focused, unhurried attention during each visit. At home, I also have a family of three teenage daughters who love animals, which helps reinforce a calm, pet-friendly mindset in my daily life. While I remain the primary caregiver during any pet sitting, our household’s appreciation for animals reflects the caring and responsible environment I bring to every visit. I always aim to build trust with both pets and their owners by being consistent, patient, and attentive, so pets feel comfortable and secure while their family is away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hudson Mills
We had an excellent experience with our house/pet sitter, Gordon. I was nervous having a stranger in our home and with our pets, but from the start, he was great at communicating with me. That continued while we were away with daily texts and photos. It put our minds at ease knowing they were being taken care of so well. We came home to happy pets and a spotless house. He even went out of his way to schedule things around our dog who requires special attention and medication. Would definitely book again.

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 Mills 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 Mills 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 Mills 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.
