“Amy was absolutely lovely. She took such great care of our pups and our house. The dogs loved her. She also brought in our packages that were delivered! She sent pics throughout her stay which I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend Amy and will be using her services again!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Lyle. His communication was excellent—very friendly and approachable, which made me feel at ease leaving my dog in their care for 4 nights. He is clearly experienced with dogs, showing genuine kindness and attentiveness. The check-in documentation and pictures were thorough and helpful, giving me peace of mind. Despite having a busy schedule, he managed to meet all expectations for check-ins and updates. He also left the house in really good shape, which we truly appreciated. Highly recommend!”
“Christopher did a wonderful jobs taking care of our Zoey. He sent plenty of updates and photos to us while we were gone. Our girl is reactive with other dogs, but he handled her well on walks. We appreciate the level of care he gave her as well as the respect for our home that he showed. We will be hiring him again.”
“Rachel was amazing—hands down the best experience! She met Blitz beforehand so they could get to know each other, which immediately made me feel more comfortable. She was incredibly communicative and made sure she had all the information she needed to provide the best care. You can truly tell she’s passionate about animals and their well-being. More than that, she genuinely wants pet owners to be able to enjoy their time away without worrying about their furry family members. She put me completely at ease, and I knew Blitz was in great hands. I would absolutely recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Sarah house sat for me and even stayed an extra night on late notice due to a family emergency. She sent lots of pictures and in every one the dogs looked like they were having a great time! She is very communicative and I look forward to having her again!”
“I reached out to Alex to watch my pup on very short notice. Not only did she respond quickly, but came to visit a day prior to my departure to get to know Bailey before I was to leave early the following morning. My pup has significant anxiety, but from the moment Alex walked in she was at ease. Alex provided pictures and updates throughout her stay. Recommend her highly!”
“Elizabeth was outstanding! She kept us informed during our vacation, and took great care of the house in addition to our dog! She also took our dog for nice walks despite the frigid weather. We will happily use her again.”
“Diandra was incredible! She was so communicative and so kind! She left our house in SPARKLING shape- I think it was cleaner when we got home than when we left! She swung with some annoyances too- our house lost power in 95 degree weather and I messed up our days off and asked literally the day before she was going to leave if she could spend an extra night. She was super easy going about both. I feel so lucky we found her and I will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Judy provided great communication the entire trip and ensured my dog got the correct medications. She left the house clean and it gave me peace of mind knowing Judy was at home with my dog.”
“We are so happy we discovered Abby through Rover! She stayed with our 18 year old kitty while we were away at a family reunion, and she did a wonderful job! Oliver is no easy-to-deal-with cat, as he requires medicine twice a day, eats only canned food, and also has a bottomless pit for attention. She was there for him, kept us updated, and we also found our home spotless upon our return. In addition, she kept our wild birds happy by keeping their feeders and baths full, along with watering our potted flowers. Over and above!”
About: I’ve been around fur babies my entire life, caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I’m comfortable using the intuitive understanding of their needs and behaviors that I have gained throughout my years to adapt my care to match each dog’s unique temperament and routine. I’ve also spent time caring for senior pets for family members, so I understand the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentleness they require, whether that means maintaining routines, supporting mobility, or offering calm companionship. On top of that, I’ve raised and cared for my own stubborn shih tzu, which taught me a lot about patience and how to handle strong-willed dogs with both structure and love. What sets my care apart from most, I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach, I focus on truly knowing each pet as if they were my own: learning their personality, respecting their routine, and creating a safe, stress-free environment where they feel secure and loved. Clients can expect reliable communication, updates, and the peace of mind that their pet is not just being watched but cared for. As a college student home for the summer, pet care fits seamlessly into a very open and flexible schedule. With ample availability throughout the day and week, there is plenty of time to provide attentive, consistent care. This flexibility allows for adapting to each pet’s routine and ensuring they receive the time and attention they deserve. Creating a comfortable and trustworthy environment is always the top priority. Care is tailored to each pet’s routine to keep things familiar and stress-free, with close attention to feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions provided. Walks are always done with safety in mind, using secure leashing and awareness of surroundings. In a client’s home, respect for both the space and the pet’s comfort is key: keeping things clean, calm, and consistent while maintaining open communication. The goal is to ensure every pet feels secure, cared for, and happy, while giving owners absolute peace of mind.
“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!!”
“Nick did a great job watching our two Pitbulls for 10 days. The dog loved him. He kept the house clean and tidy and did a few small tasks for us as well. Definitely will use him again.”
“Avery really went above and beyond for us. She spent so much time at our house with the animals- playing and walking them. She was always quick to respond or send picture requests. We ended up having to stay on a vacation for an extra day and a half and she just made it work. We are so thankful for her!”
“Jennifer was such and amazing dog sitter for our two Australian Shepherds. We had a chaotic week before a trip we had planned for months. Both our dogs had to go to the vet for paw injuries that required them to be in cones and kept separate. On top of that our first sitter we had planned did not show up for our meet and greet before our trip. We booked Jennifer the night before our trip and she responded immediately and ask if she could come over within an hour to meet the dogs. She paid extreme attention to detail when we told her all she would have to do with our dogs and asked a ton of questions which really helped to ease our stress. While we were gone she sent us regular updates with photos of our dogs which also eased our worries. All in all Jennifer was punctual, professional and very caring toward our pups and the special situation. I would strongly recommend her to anyone.”
“Absolutely Amazing!!!!! I could not recommend Jennifer enough. Her love and care for my two dogs was out of this world. They were sad to see her leave and cant wait to have their new play friend back. She took such great care of my home as well and went over and beyond. I would give her a 10 star review if it were possible.”
“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!”
“Aurora is absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of our senior dog, our reactive dog, and our rabbit while we were away. She handled medication without any issues, and sent detailed updates and photos so that we always felt connected to what everyone was up to. She gave each pet including our rabbit one-on-one attention and knowing they were getting such great care really put us at ease with being away for so long knowing they were in excellent hands! We came home to happy, relaxed pets, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with Aurora again!”
About: I started dog sitting in 2022 for a coworker at the time, and since then I now have 9 different families I regularly sit for. I have experience with a range of dogs (from Toy Aussies to German Shepherds) as well as cats, which I grew up with, and some experience with fish and birds. I love all kinds of animals and getting to know their individual quirks and personalities! I am primarily doing online classes for school and working part-time. My working schedule can be flexible with advanced notice so I can spend the most time with your pet(s)! Whatever is best for you and your pet is what I provide! I’ve cared for very high-maintenance dogs that need multiple walks a day, special diets, etc., as well as very chill dogs that just come in and out as they please and eat whenever they want. I’m very flexible to provide whatever care the pet requires!
“Charles took good care of our dogs, He was not fazed at the initial meet & greet when our younger but larger dog was quite excited and jumpy. He arrived on time and provided creatively silly updates on our pups. We would definitely like to book his services again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Hudson
Our dogs absolutely loved Rhiannon, which says a lot because our little rescue usually takes a long time to warm up to new people. She has a special touch, and they trusted her almost immediately. She kept us updated with great communication and sent the sweetest photos while we were away. Knowing our dogs were so well cared for gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our time away.
Had all 3 of my fur babies enjoying Lyle in our home for a week. Each one of them have their own personalities: independent, princess and one with anxiety. I left specific detailed notes. But received many photos, even some new positive behaviors that had come out with Lyle. When returned house was clean as I left it. My 3 dogs were of course excited to see me but I could tell they were relaxed. I’m have another short stay scheduled with Lyle and will not hesitate in planning another week long trip.

FAQs for House Sitting - New Hudson
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in New Hudson on Rover is $51.73 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 2,454 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across New 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 New 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 New 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 New 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.
