“Blanca was amazing. She was so patient with our nervous and anxious dog. All of our animals, cats and dogs, received their medicine and all special food needs were met.”
“Winta was amazing with our two pups - she found creative ways to keep them entertained with it being so hot outside, and sent lots of updates with adorable pictures. She was super responsive and proactive in her communication, and went the extra mile to leave our house in tip top shape. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Alexis did a great job house sitting and watching my Shiba Inu, Yuki. She took good care of Yuki each day and ensured she had plenty of interaction including walks and treat time. Alexis also did a great job of keeping me informed of Yuki’s daily activities and sent pictures. I recommend Alexis for doing a great job with Yiki while I was away.”
“We are completely happy with Bertha our pups like her she sent videos and pictures this was the first time we left them with someone other than family they were not stressed out and she left our home as clean as we left it, we definitely recommend her and we will absolutely use her again.Thanks again Bertha.”
About: I am a Retired Veteran looking to be your next pet sitter. I am Trustworthy & Reliable. I will treat your fur baby’s like they were my own. I can only pet sit in your home since I have 3 dogs of my own. I would love it if you want to set up a meet and greet. I am not working as of now so my schedule is wide open to schedule short notice or long term care if needed. I do require a meet & greet. I can only do care in your home because I have 3 dogs of my own. Just let me know what your preferences are and we can work it out.
“Una was very caring attentive and loving to my girls they were calm and settled when I returned. She took good care of my home as well I recommend Una and would definitely book with her again.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Katherine caring for Charlie! From the beginning, communication was excellent, and it was clear that Charlie was in caring and capable hands. We appreciated the updates, photos, and attention given to his needs while we were away. Charlie was happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which gave us great peace of mind. It’s not always easy leaving your pet with someone else, but this experience exceeded our expectations. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend Katherine to other pet parents looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring.”
“I can’t leave enough reviews for Ms. Nita! She is the number #1 and only person we trust to take care of my dog babies while I am gone. She takes care of them like they are hers. I am very grateful for Ms. Nita”
“Brandi was wonderful! This was our first dog sitting/house sitting we’ve done and she quickly put our minds at ease. Our pup took to her immediately and she was very communicative while we were away. We would absolutely book Brandi again!”
“Isaiah was wonderful with Waffles! She felt comfortable jumping right up in his lap and hanging out right alongside him the entire time they spent together. The updates were great, I'll be requesting him to keep Waffles company in the future!”
“Rebecca was so attentive and communicative. She was very patient with Wally being anxious. She was able to handle Wally on a leash! I’d recommend Rebecca for house sitting anytime and will definitely ask her to watch Wally in the future.”
“John did a great job watching over Boog & our house. We are so thankful for the amazing communication and that we didn’t have to worry all week about our dog! Highly recommend & we will use him again when needed!”
“Gushing review alert! If I could give Chanel 10 stars that still wouldn't suffice. This angel responded to my slightly desperate outreach at the last minute and almost took better care of my furbabies than me. She was everything - punctual, reliable, communicative, responsible and responsive. Chanel showered my pups with love and attention. Faced with my boxer mix's version of a mid-walk "power nap" on a neighbor's lawn, Chanel just sat on the curb whilst my old girl got her second wind. That's Chanel in a nutshell. Need I say more? Thanks Chanel. You're a superstar!”
About: I’ve grown up with multiple pets in the household and have taken care of many close friends’ and neighbors pets! I love animals so much! I work a eight-hour shift M-F, so I’m able to spend all my time with pets both before and after work. Also depending on the location, I can always pay your pet a visit on my break. I always make time for play, walks, and care whenever I’m available. Understanding and learning your pets boundaries are key. All pets have certain personalities that dictate behavior and personal interest. I am a very flexible person and will take my time to make sure the pet is comfortable and trusting of me.
About: I’m a mom and a wife! My husband and daughter stay at home. If your pet is okay with family vibes we would be a perfect fit! Growing up on a farm, I was surrounded by animals of all kinds—cows, goats, chickens, dogs, and more. Caring for them wasn’t just a chore; it was a way of life. Because of that, taking care of pets comes naturally to me. Whether it’s feeding, grooming, or just giving them the love and attention they need, I instinctively know how to handle animals with patience and care. Beyond basic pet sitting, I have experience training puppies, caring for senior pets, and handling animals with special needs. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, a structured routine, or gentle care in their older years, I’m here to make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for. We don’t do big dogs for boarding we focus on 0-15 lbs or something close. Pet care isn’t just something I do—it’s my main job and my passion. Since I grew up on a farm caring for animals every day, looking after pets feels like second nature to me. Now, as a professional pet sitter, my daily and weekly routine revolves around making sure every pet I care for is happy, healthy, and well looked after. From morning walks and feeding schedules to playtime, training, and even senior pet care, I tailor my days to fit each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s a midday check-in, an overnight stay, or specialized care, I’m fully dedicated to giving pets the love and attention they need while their owners are away.
“Janet is wonderful! I needed a sitter on very short notice and she immediately responded and even offered to do a meet and greet that night. She sent lots of updates of my pup and made me feel at ease having to leave him during my work trip. Highly recommend!!”
“Hannah was amazing house sitting for us! She followed all of our instructions. I have a very old Chihuahua and she kept a close eye and did all her specific arrangements. She also took our bigger Pitbull out to play and walk outside so he could get some energy out. She left everything pristine at our home. There was a mishap with our apartment complex's parking and she handled it so graciously and understanding; I was very grateful for her patience and initiative in getting it sorted out while we were so far away.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting since 2021, starting while I was serving in the military. After getting out the military, I was a canine handler 2 years working with explosive detection canines and my love for animals has only continued to grow. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I have a Goldendoodle and an orange tabby cat, so I’m experienced with both dogs and cats and comfortable caring for a variety of animals. Whether you need pet sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or just some extra attention and companionship for your pets, I’m happy to help. I take pride in everything I do and treat every pet with the same care, patience, and affection I would want for my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 Available on your time. Seven days a week for boarding, walks, playdates, and pet sitting. Providing reliable, loving care tailored to your pet’s needs. 🐾 Care varies by service and each pet’s needs. Whether in my home or yours, I provide feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, companionship, and plenty of attention while maintaining their normal routine. You will always be in the loop when I’m taking care of your fur babies.

FAQs for House Sitting - Grand Prairie
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Grand Prairie on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,303 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Grand Prairie. 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 Grand Prairie 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 Grand Prairie 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 Grand Prairie 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.
