Kendra did a great job, even though there was a winter storm she still went thru all the trouble to make sure my dogs were taken care of, she’s very attentive, kind to our dogs and great communication with us, throughout the stay.

It was my first time using Rover and Rachel made sure it was a good experience. She clarified any needs for the dogs, asked what was acceptable to not cross any boundaries already set, and made sure they had an enjoyable day. Couldn’t be happier to have them watched by her. Would recommend her if you need a sitter.

Eboni handled my pets very well! I have a mini pig who is constantly testing and needs lots of attention and firm instruction and Eboni handled it very well and I came home to a very happy pig. She also cared for my chickens well. Eboni is a quick learner and respects the rules you have for your pets and your home and gives them lots of love and attention. She is also someone I was very comfortable leaving alone in my home and left things neat and clean after a few days pet sitting. I highly recommend her.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable, caring, and attentive sitter who truly enjoys being around animals and creating a safe, calm environment for them. I currently stay at home with my baby, which means your pet will get lots of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day, they’ll never feel alone or neglected. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I have a gentle, hypoallergenic dog at home who is very friendly and well behaved, so I’m comfortable managing multiple pets and making sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I’m happy to accommodate different personalities, energy levels, and routines, whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or just a peaceful place to relax. What you can expect from me: • A clean, safe, and pet-friendly home • Lots of attention, affection, and supervision • Flexibility with scheduling when possible • Clear communication and updates while you’re away I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to make their time with me as stress-free and happy as possible. Feel free to reach out with any questions, I’d love to meet you and your pet! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine since I’m home most of the day with my baby. I’m able to provide consistent potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. Pets are rarely left alone and are always supervised. I follow a calm, structured routine and can easily adjust to your pet’s specific needs, energy level, and schedule. Caring for pets is a natural part of my day, not something I squeeze in. I provide a safe, calm, and fully supervised environment for every pet. In my home, I keep a clean, pet-friendly space and only take a small number of dogs so each one gets plenty of attention. I’m careful with introductions and always prioritize safety and comfort. Pets get regular potty breaks, playtime, and a routine that matches what they’re used to at home. I’m happy to follow any feeding schedules, crate routines, or special instructions. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and stick closely to your pet’s normal routine to keep things familiar and stress free.

Marisol watched my sweet girl who I was recovering from my very serious deep eye ulcer. This required her to put in antibiotic eye drops in both of my dog’s eyes three times a day. I was nervous about hiring a sitter because I wasn’t sure how they would be able to handle this, however, Marisol made sure to ask a lot of questions and was able to give my dog all of her drops! I’ve always had family members take care of my dog whenever I go on vacation, but I moved out of state and so I had to rely on a sitter. Marisol was very responsive, she was on top of all of my dogs antibiotic eye drops, and helped put my mind at ease while I took a long weekend trip away.

About: I've owned dogs all my life. A home is not a home if you don't have paw pals. If I care for your baby I will take care of him as if he were mine. They will go for walks everyday. We will play fetch. I also have a fenced yard so they will be safe and well taken care of. Your pet will not be bored. I have one dog myself and she is solid rotten. I do work but, I do 3 days on 4 days off. My son is home during the day, and he's off on weekends. He loves to play with the dogs, and he also helps walk the dogs when needed. 😍 Your baby will go for walks everyday. We will play fetch.

We have used Andrea a few times for our 3 fur babies and she has always been extremely accommodating and friendly. All 3 of our dogs have different temperaments and she handles them accordingly and gives them all the love while we are away. She’s always good with dogs that are not too happy about having a pet sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Mesquite

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Mesquite on Rover is $41.63 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 4,150 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mesquite. 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 Mesquite 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 Mesquite 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 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!

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mesquite. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
