I am a sponsored spouse and I am currently employed, but I am seriously thinking of quitting my job before my PR is finalized. Would that cause a problem in any way? Will I need to report the change? If I have no job back in the US when I go visit my husband in Canada and want to stay awhile, would they give me a hard time?

It has no effect on the app and you are not required to update CIC on your employment status.

Given that you have a PR app submitted, as long as you don't show up at the border with a U-Haul full of stuff, you shouldn't have any issues entering Canada to visit your husband.
