“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.”
“Carla watched our three dogs while we traveled for our wedding. She is truly the best! I felt completely comfortable the whole time and knew they were in good hands. She really knows dogs. Not to mention she is a lovely person to talk to. If you are looking for a sitter and have any hesitation definitely consider Carla you won’t be disappointed!!”
“Regina is great! My puppies just love her and I highly recommend her! One of my pups is very skittish and he warmed right up to Regina and even ate his dinner for her. Thank you so much Regina for watching my pups! Sherry Seale”
About: I've always been around dogs, whether it was my mommas at home or my roommates pets! Ive come to love them and maybe one day will have one of my own! In the meantime, I'd love to care for your baby while you take care of you! I'm currently transitioning from teaching to a new career so I am pretty flexible right now! I just needs a heads up in advance and am happy to make time! My current roommates dog is an indoor dog and so when she's not home, I make sure to give him potty breaks and whatever it is she asks of me! I've been told i'm such a rule follower haha I don't think its a bad thing so whatever it is your pet needs, just let me know!
About: I’ve taken care of two senior cats for two years now. I have also taken care of my friends and family pets while they were out and about. I can provide the basic needs for your pets and lots of love! I work 4 days out of the week, so I will have plenty of time to attend to your pets needs and wants in any situation. When I did care for my two senior cats I would make sure their basic needs are met of course, but because they were so much older I was more attentive to them since they were more fragile and would immediately handle any limp I saw or cough or sneeze. I will treat your pets as if they are my own.
“Courtney and John were awesome, if you’re looking for dog sitters who goes above and beyond Courtney and John are the sitters to choose. They were awesome with communicating and sent updates every day while we were on vacation as well as responding super quick whenever I needed. While on vacation we ended up being stuck at the departing airport for more than 10 hours Courtney and John went above and beyond to make sure all my worries were taken care of if we couldn’t make it home. I cannot not say enough good things about this amazing duo! They were absolutely spectacular and left my pup with a smile on his face when we returned home from vacation. Definitely choose Courtney and John for the next time your pup needs a sitter.”
About: Ive had pets my entire life, and my own dogs my entire adult life. I was a pet sitter in collage and have watched friends and families dogs for years! I currently work 5 days a week in Seagoville, but am avaliable after in the evenings and weekends! Particularly for nightly walks or evening nights out! I am experienced with walking dogs of all sized and leash skills. My own two dogs are pullers and high energy on a leash! I am more than comfortable feeding and administering oral medications!
About: I have always had a soft spot for animals and truly enjoy caring for them. I am a loving, patient, and responsible caregiver who understands that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I have experience caring for dogs of different personalities and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and a safe environment where they can feel comfortable. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust, and I will treat your dog like part of my family while they are in my care. I am happy to follow your dog’s usual feeding, walking, medication, and daily routines so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you are away. My goal is for every pup to feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I spend a lot of time at home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give dogs plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. I can provide regular potty breaks, feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love and companionship. I enjoy having dogs around and am happy to give them the attention they need rather than leaving them alone for long periods of time. I will follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they can feel comfortable, safe, and at home while their family is away. My priority is always making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I provide a clean, calm, and welcoming home where dogs can relax, play, and receive plenty of attention throughout the day. I regularly care for my three-year-old grandchild, so there is a young child in the home. I understand the importance of supervising both children and pets and making sure they interact safely and appropriately. My home has a securely fenced backyard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time and potty breaks. I do not have any pets of my own, so your dog can receive plenty of individual attention without having to share the space with other animals. I make sure doors and gates are securely closed, keep potentially harmful items out of reach, and supervise pets throughout their stay. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and daily routines. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I will treat every dog with patience, kindness, and care while making sure they feel safe and at home.

“My quick review is Cidell was prompt, knowledgeable, responsive, and trustworthy with house sitting my dog - I highly recommend him for your pet sitting needs! Now here’s the details: Cidell house sit my Rott boxer mix for 3 nights. Tank, my dog, was extra stressed due to my son recently moving out of the house and then the fact that he had never stayed with a stranger that long. Cidell was amazing- he kept me updated on Tanks well being, and by day 3 Tank was more calm and relaxed then when Cidell first arrived. I felt assured Tank was in good hands and Cidell was great at keeping him to his daily routine. It was also nice coming home and seeing the house in the exact same condition as when I left. I don’t normally leave reviews, but I am so impressed with the professional and caring manner that he dealt with Tank, that I wanted to let people know Cidell is your guy if he is available.”
“Our first time using Rover was a success. Our dogs loved Katherine and she did a better job of playing fetch with them than we do. We got a lot of updates and pictures during their stay. I will definitely have Katherine watch our pups again.”
“We booked Dykan for the first time for a long weekend away for house sitting. He volunteered to meet us and our two dogs before the booking to make sure we had a match which was greatly appreciated! Dylan is highly responsive, always providing updates, photos and videos throughout the day and night. Not only did he take incredible care of our fur babies, he also cleaned up everything that he used, from towels to toilet! We’ve already booked him again for our next trip. Thanks Dylan!”
“Amalia was incredible! Our dogs adore her and she took such great care of them AND our house. It was great to come home after a long day of travel and find our pups happy and our house in order! We received daily updates and pictures. We felt like our pups were in the best possible hands while we were gone. She will always be our first call when we go out of town! Thank you Molly!”
“I’m so grateful to have found Dariia! She took wonderful care of my five babies and kept me updated with the sweetest photos. Everyone got plenty of walks, cuddles, and attention, and I never once felt worried while I was away! She offered to come meet everyone before the booking, took her own notes and paid attention to little details! She even washed the sheets and folded laundry before leaving. You can tell she puts love and care into both your pets and home! Such a thoughtful, beautiful person—I would absolutely have her back! 🩵”
“Omg… KELILA IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. So kind, so helpful and most importantly my baby loved her so mix. She was the best sitter I have ever had, and I will definitely be using her again. Thank you Kelila.”
“Haley is the best sitter we have had! She takes the time to meet and understand your dogs’ needs first. I really appreciate all the updates she provides-videos, photos and messages so you know what is going on with your babies. She is extremely kind to my dogs and communicates very well. Highly recommend!”
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!
“Ive used rover a couple of times since moving here and Emely is one of the best sitters I've had the pleased of working with. She was nice, Punctual, provided great communication and consistently provided photos of my dogs. I came home and my house looked exactly as it was when I left. She provided a peace of mind that should be the standard for all dog sitters, I will be using her again in the future!”
“I was so pleased with Tania, would I book her again absolutely. I probably have to leave Kittycat no more than twice a year and so she is not use to having a person she doesn’t know live in her house, but Tania loved her and took care of her so well the pictures that Tania sent showed how Kittycat was completely comfortable and well looked after. Thank you again Tania.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mesquite
Kendra was amazing! Skipper and Flower loved her and she took such good care of them! She was great about sending me updates and pictures at least once a day. I could tell they were being loved well. Kendra also took great care of our home. She even washed the bedding in our guest room for me! That is above and beyond. I’m so thankful for her.
Karina was great!!! She dog/house sat for 5 nights. I could tell she paid attention to all the notes I left her (which was a crazy amount lol) and kept the dogs in their normal routine. It’s been such a relief to find someone we trust to stay at our home with our doggies while we’re away. Highly recommend! 💕
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.

The average cost of House Sitting in Mesquite is $32 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $100 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 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 , 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.
