I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received this weekend! Leaving your pets with someone else can be stressful, but from the moment we met, I knew they were in great hands. I received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious my babies were well cared for, comfortable, and getting plenty of love and attention. When I came home, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful stay. I truly appreciate the kindness, professionalism, and genuine love shown to my pets. It’s clear that caring for animals isn’t just a job—it’s something Rachel genuinely enjoys. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of my fur babies!

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: I’ve been dog sitting for over 10+ years for family, friends, coworkers, and other referrals!! This is something I’ve enjoyed and decided to expand my services! I’ve taken care of healthy, elderly, disabled, and pets under recovery, all shapes and sizes!! Im self employed so I’m typically available to turn my full attention to pet sitting!! My time is very flexible and majority of the time I’m able to accommodate to your preferred schedule. My referrals — the ones you won’t find on the internet — speak for themselves! My clients trust me enough to have me stay full weekends overnight, knowing their pets are cared for and they can have complete peace of mind while they’re away.

All those efforts really allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my little one was in good hands. I will definitely be a regular.

Carla stayed at our house and cared for our dogs like noone else has. She is amazing with dogs! She had excellent communication with us during our vacation and sent pictures every day. Sam and Lacy thrived under Carla's care and relieved us of any worry about their well being. Carla is a true "dog whisperer"; so glad we found her. Don't hesitate to hire Carla, A+ in my book!

About: I have been taking care of all kinds of animals since I was 10 years old. We had many cats and dogs growing up who I would feed, take on walks, and give lots of love! In my older years I have even taken care of horses, goats, pigs, and other livestock-type animals. I have many friends who have relied on me to take care of their animals when they are away as well. These responsibilities included taking on walks, feeding and watering, cleaning up after pets, and being there to spend time with them. Since I have experience with veterinary medicine, I am comfortable and able to give medicines to pets as well! I am currently a part-time student with a part-time job, so I have plenty of time to watch after your friends on the weekends and limited availability during the week! I am available Friday and Saturday all day! I will give your pets the most excellent care in your home. I will leave your home in great condition and make sure that your pets are given quality care and love!

Michael was incredible. He took such amazing care of our pup while we were out of town. He sent us so many pictures, videos, and live updates. Michael communicated so well with us and followed all of our request to a T. Our pup has a lot of energy and high anxiety and he did an amazing job of keeping her active with serval walks and calm by giving her lots of love. We already rebooked with Michael and will continue to use him in the future. I already recommended him to friends and family. Highly recommend! He was amazing!

We needed dogsitter who would be comfortable staying in our home with our pups. We got that and more with Lyn. She did an excellent job caring for our pups. They found a new snuggle companion. Which was quite amazing because our 10-month-old Staffordshire terrier mix doesn’t warm up to anyone quickly. Additionally she cared for our plants inside and out. She respected our home and took excellent care of it. We look forward to working with her again in the future.

About: As a full-time work-from-home professional, your pet will enjoy constant companionship and a highly predictable routine throughout the day. I specialize in providing attentive care for both energetic puppies who need consistent potty schedules and senior dogs requiring gentle pacing and precise medication management. My home is a calm, hazard-free environment designed for safety, and I intentionally limit bookings to one family at a time to ensure your dog receives my absolute focus, regular exercise, and undivided affection. As a lifelong animal lover with over 5 years of pet care experience, I treat every furry guest like a member of my own family. My goal is to provide a safe, high-energy, and stress-free environment tailored specifically to your pet's unique personality and daily routine. Whether your dog craves long, structured neighborhood walks, intense fetching sessions, or just a quiet spot on the couch for endless belly rubs, I ensure they receive constant attention, love, and mental stimulation. I am extremely detail-oriented, highly communicative, and will text you frequent photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away with absolute peace of mind. Whether hosting your pet for a fun-filled staycation at my house or caring for them in the comfort of their own home, safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. In my home, your pet will enjoy a fully secured, hazard-free environment with plenty of cozy spaces, separate boundaries for safety, and constant supervision. When checking on or sitting at your home, I strictly respect your property, follow all security protocols, and replicate your pet's exact feeding, walking, and medication routines to minimize separation anxiety. I keep emergency vet contacts ready at all times and send frequent, reassuring updates so you always know your best friend is safe, happy, and loved.

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 $36.08 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,072 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
  • 96% 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.
