“Aleecia was amazing! We needed a last minute request for someone to come to the house a couple of times to tend to our dogs and she was awesome. Very communicative and caring. Thank you Aleecia!!”
“Priscila has done a drop in visit for us and watched our dogs while we were out of town. She did a great job both times and took great care of my dogs. She gave plenty of updates and pictures during our trip away. We have already rebooked her to watch our dogs on our next vacation. I would highly recommend Priscila to watch your dogs.”
About: My attention to detail and the pride I take in all my work. Whether it comes to school, my personal work, or taking care of animals, I want to be proud in knowing I did my best! I know how anxiety inducing it can be to leave your animals at home while you’re away or not being able to care for your pet due to unforeseen circumstances. So I want to provide my service to make that easier on you! I can send as many updates and photos and videos as you’d like! I’m also a very active person, I can take your dogs on walks or runs as far as you’d like. I work full time Monday through Friday, but I get off at 3 and always available on weekends. I am beginning to go back to school so I decided to start a side hustle that doesn’t feel like work to me! Taking care of animals genuinely feels like a treat to me. I waited until I had a my own space and steady job before making the decision to get my cat. I knew that I’d rather wait until I could give my pet the best! I believe what you feed your animals and the cleanliness of litter boxes/water/food bowls are extremely important. And I believe animals need lots of attention and mental stimulation!
“We’ve been looking for someone who is comfortable with our high energy dogs and Matthew has been great! Super prompt and responsive and gives great feedback on how they are all doing.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my entire life and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I currently have two German Shepherds and four cats of my own, including a Sphynx cat, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of breeds and temperaments. I provide dependable in-home pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, allowing your pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment while you’re away. I’m experienced in administering medications, following special care instructions, and maintaining your pet’s regular routine to help reduce stress. I also worked at a veterinary office during high school (2005–2006), where I gained hands-on experience with animal handling, basic care, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention. You can count on me to treat your pets like family and provide regular updates for your peace of mind.) have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week, including weekends when needed. I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and your scheduling needs. I believe pets are happiest in their familiar environment, so I provide attentive care in your home where they feel most comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, fresh water, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and plenty of affection. I’ll also respect your home, keep things tidy, and send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in caring, reliable hands.
About: I regularly help care for my parents’ 6 year old Schnauzer and my sister’s 7 year old dog, so I’m very familiar with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving them lots of attention and affection. Spending time with them has helped me understand every different personalities and energy levels, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m a recent college grad working part-time, so my schedule’s pretty flexible. I’m available a good chunk of the day to take care of cats and dogs. Feeding, walks, litter box or playtime, all of that fits in easily, and since I’m not gone for long stretches, they won’t be alone too much! For drop-ins and walks, I will follow your routine for feeding and care needs including litter box scooping for cats, keep leashes/harnesses secure for dogs, and stay attentive the whole time. I clean up after walks, refresh water and food, and double check doors are locked before I leave. I always send an update with photos afterward :)
About: I've taken care of the family dogs for 20-ish years, bathing and brushing their food comes easy. We can go for extended walks if necessary as I know many trails in the area. I'm available in the evenings Monday through Friday but all available almost all day Saturday and Sunday. Let me know how and when I can help!! Depending on what is easier for you and your pets, I can care for them either way my house or yours. It's all good what's best for your little one(s)
“Dorothy was kind, friendly, and so easy to work with! She made sure to keep me updated throughout the stay and sent me updates that gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands. She was very attentive and caring, and I really appreciated how communicative she was. I would definitely recommend Dorothy and would be happy to have her watch my dog again!”
About: Living the WFH dream! I’m so lucky to be able to spend my workdays curled up with furry friends. I love getting to know animals — their boundaries, personalities, quirks, and needs. I especially like multi-day stays because it allows animals time to adjust to a new presence and settle back into their routine. I work from home Monday-Friday, so I’m available for pet care all day any day! I’m able to work into my day things like play time, walks, and cuddle time. When I’m caring for your pet, I’m also caring for your home and the environment around them. I’m more than happy to tidy up, bring in the mail, water the plants, whatever is needed to keep things running. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to deliver care that makes them feel safe, comfortable, and calm. Transitions are hard, and I know how crucial consistency is to reducing an animal’s distress when the pet parents go out of town.
About: I got a dog just recently and I love her as if she's my own daughter. I am a better person because of her, and I am so glad that I rescued her and gave her a home with so much love and attention. I do a lot of work at home stuff on my PC as well as a lot of Doordash, Instacart, etc. when I am not busy at home. I am very flexible and care about giving humans and animals a sense of safety when dealing with me. I tell them and show them what I do as well as have an open conversation about everything upfront. I honestly like getting to know people first before doing business.
“Abby was a life saver! Very punctual with all of her visits & made sure to send pics & updates! I can tell she was a good sitter because Boe was looking for her when I returned home today haha.. def will be booking Abby again soon!”
About: hello! I have 8 years of experience with dog sitting and taking care of pets. I own two dogs of my own, and I regularly dog sit for friends, family, and neighbors. I love dogs and cats and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I am recently unemployed and decided to commit full time to pet care. For the most part, I can be available whenever you need me, even if it happens to be last minute. I have my reliable transportation, so getting to and from your location will never be a problem. I am fully comfortable with dogs of all shapes and sizes, and I am very gentle with all pets and animals. thank you! I am currently unemployed, apart from taking a few online summer classes, so I am usually always available during the week and on most weekends. I have a spacious yard for dogs to play in, and I go on long walks often, which any dog would love. I have never encountered an unfriendly dog in my neighborhood.
“Samantha was great with my three-month-old puppy, showing a lot of patience and care. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure he felt comfortable. My puppy took to her right away, and I could tell he enjoyed his time with her. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
About: I have loved and experienced dog sitting since I was in middle school. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and love their animals! I work part time for the oldest clock shop in Dallas. I can’t wait to love your fur baby as if you were there! I love to take my dog Lucy for a walks and give her treats. She can do a few tricks, but my favorite thing about her is that she cuddles with me when I sleep!
About: I’ve taken care of pets when I used to live in Hawaii since I was 15. And would often give them baths, walk them, and feed them. I’m currently part time which means I’ll have plenty of time to take care of pets as well as take them on walks or to the park. I’ll often take them on a walk in the morning. I’ll feed them breakfast if that’s in their routine. Play with them in my apartment and then take them out again in the afternoon. I’ll then feed them dinner around 6-7 and then take them out once more.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mesquite
Rachel did an excellent job when watching our dogs while we were out of town! Her communication was incredible, and I loved the pictures and videos. She was never in a hurry and sometimes stayed longer than expected. We will definitely be using Rachel in the future.
Dania has been so great this week with our baby Lucy. We lost our other fur baby last weekend and all been taking it hard, when we had to return to work we needed a sitter for our babygirl towards the end of the week. We booked with Dania and are so grateful we did. ❤️ Dania is so sweet, loving and patient with Lucy it’s means a lot especially during this time that she been hurting for her brother. She has kept her happy, safe and nurtured. She has kept us updated and asked all the questions to make sure we were ok as well during her in home visits. Lucy is a shy girl and she has warmed up to Dania’s loving vibe. She played outside with her and kept her happy. We will always check for her availability and trust her with the safety of our baby girl. Thank you Dania for you services!❤️🐾🫂
Tiffany takes excellent care of our babies while we are away. Communication is consistent and clear, and we always knew how things were going thanks to regular updates and photos. We can rest easy knowing everything will be handled just the way we ask. We’ll definitely book again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Mesquite is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $37 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 6,517 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Mesquite. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Mesquite 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!
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.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
