“Excellent sitter. On time kept us informed on how things were going and very friendly and dependable. Wouldn’t hesitate to welcome. Lanka back whenever we are in town.”
“Bertha is amazing! Hands down the only person I will trust Gatsby to. She sent me messages and photos each day and I was able to FaceTime. I felt more at ease knowing he was having a good time. The sweetest person ever.”
“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.”
“Nita was very nice and professional. We received several updates during the stay. Max really liked her and that was a great sign. Our house was as we left it. We will use her again. We highly recommend her.”
“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!”

“Maggie was amazing! It was the first time we had someone stay in our home with our dogs and it went so well! Maggie sent us pictures every day with updates which we really appreciated. One of our dogs tends to be anxious around new people, but she was so comfortable with Maggie from the start. We will definitely be rebooking with her for our future trips!”
“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.”
“Deanna is my go-to sitter. She's amazing with my fur babies and takes wonderful care of my home. I can't sing her praises enough. I had one sad pug sitting by the doorway mourning the departure of his one source of love and treats. Although a little jealous, I am grateful that she makes my boy ungrateful for my attention.”
“Susan was lovely. She was very patient with us and really listened to all of our worries and concerns. All of our animals did great of course. We already have her booked again!❤️🐾”
“Chanel was wonderful will my babies. She watched all five of my animals (2 dogs and 3 cats) so she definitely had her hands full and she was still able to send me updates multiple times a day. My babies loved her and I will definitely be using her services again.”
“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!”
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.
“Syerra was wonderful! She came to our house to dog-sit our three dogs, and we felt very comfortable having her in our home while we were away. She was kind, responsible, communicative, and great with our dogs!”
“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!!”
“Querhea is an absolute delight and pleasure to work with. She took care of my babies while I was in surgery and they love her. She even stayed past her scheduled time until we got home from surgery the next day. I will be booking her for all our family needs”
“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Grand Prairie
She was absolutely amazing with my dogs! She kept me updated every step of the way with pictures and messages, letting me know how they were doing, if they didn’t eat, or if their allergies were acting up. She was very attentive to the hot weather, making sure they stayed hydrated and comfortable. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!

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.
