“Bree did a great job with our two pups, Leonard (Lab) and Lola (Corgi-mix), and we highly recommend her. She stayed at the house while we were away and left it as clean, if not cleaner, than when we left. She walked the dogs, took them to the dog park, and bathed them and kept us in the loop with videos and photographs of their adventures. Bree is very responsive to texts and punctual. She's also a joy to be around and we felt very comfortable having her in our home.”
“Rebecca was great with my dog Nacho! Friendly, communicative, and kind. She had great attention to detail and made me aware of a small rash on his muzzle and cleaned it up. She was flexible and understanding when I experienced travel disruptions and left my apartment spotless. Will def book with her again in the future!”
“Isabel is an exceptional pet sitter, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! She recently took care of my dog, Zeke, and provided absolute peace of mind. Isabel is incredibly responsible, and attentive. She kept me constantly updated with daily photos and regular check-ins, which made being away so much easier. When I returned, Zeke was completely relaxed and happy. I am so grateful to have found someone so reliable and loving, and I will absolutely be booking Isabel again. 10/10 recommendation!”
About: I have had cats for 20 years or more and I enjoy taking care of them. I love dogs and have been helping a friend with walking dogs. I always make a special connection with dogs. They like me. I can see their tail wagging. I want all pets to get the care they need. I am working part time so mornings and evenings would work for me. I can also work on weekends and on days I do not work. I can come to someone's home to take care of the pets or take them for a walk. Feed them and clean up after them.
“I was down to the wire needing a last minute sitter for my pups. It was my first experience with Rover so I was very nervous trusting someone I. Just met with my home and dogs. Ngina was sweet and eased my mind by staying communicative and sending pictures often. I would definitely book again.”
About: Any pet welcomed! Home with AC, large backyard with privacy fence, back building with AC units, lots of space! Whatever works best for your pet.

“Ann is a true gem. She stayed with my pups and was able to pick up and treat one of my dogs, when she got sick. She’s always so reliable and professional. She loves my dogs and it’s very obvious. I will use her anytime I can get her.”
“Fernanda was absolutely amazing with our blind dog, Callie! I truly cannot say enough good things about her. We felt completely at ease, and throughout the stay she kept us updated with constant photos, messages, and detailed updates. It was so clear that Callie was happy, loved, and incredibly well cared for! We will be booking Fernanda again in a heartbeat! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring and communicative, look no further. Thank you, Fernanda!”
“Lisa did a great job taking care of our pups! Our babies were brushed and walked twice daily. She also sent us daily “pupdates” so we can know how they did for the day including how much of their food was eaten and their behavior throughout the day. Our dogs were so happy with her and we would definitely have her again!”
“Briggite was absolutely amazing! She took wonderful care of Ribs and Gon, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was reliable, communicative, caring, and clearly loves animals. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands while we were away. Ribs and Gon were happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we returned. We would definitely trust Briggite again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and loving pet sitter. Thank you, Briggite—you were the best!”
About: I have done pet sitting, pet boarding, dog walks, transporting pets to vets and to their new homes. I've done meds and other things needed Pets are my business and my life, my own 3 small dogs and other people's fur babies too. My life is pretty great for it I do dog walks in my home. And my own dogs can hangout in the bedroom while yours can enjoy run of the home or they can be together if yours prefers company
About: I am fully retired and dogsitting is my only job. Therefore no distractions and your dog will get my full attention. You also get three pairs of eyes. 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.
“Luis was awesome! He took great care of the girls and kept us posted along the way. It wasn't easy for us to leave our home and girls to someone we didn't know. But, he brought Mocha a few weeks ahead of time so he and she could meet us and the girls... and things went well. As a matter of fact, he'll be watching them again less than a week later.”
“Symone was amazing with my animals, they loved her right away, she was always sending me pictures and giving me updates which made me feel safe and secure. I would highly recommend Symone she's the best☺️☺️ I can't wait to use her again! Thanks so much ❤️”

Katherine was very communicative and very helpful taking care of my senior cat while I was gone. She would send at least 2-3 messages each day, with pictures, which was very helpful when I was missing her. I look forward to working with her again in the future!

The average cost of House Sitting in Grand Prairie is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $71 per night.

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 , 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.
