“Anna was amazing! At the first meeting it was clear she was a ‘dog person’ and Dean fell for her. She gave him lots of attention and much cuddling as he is a bit of a needy pup. She was very responsive during the week she watched him. She sent regular updates and some great photos which left me feeling sure he was well cared for. I recommend her highly.”
“Melissa was such a blessing! She took the best care of our sweet Lucy. I knew Lucy was comfortable and in great hands because she ate her food everyday and usually she skips days because she’s anxious when we’re gone. Melissa sent wonderful daily updates and photos, too.”
“Julie was fantastic! She took the best care of our furbabies (who have special needs) and made us feel at ease while we were away. We knew our babies were in good hands and that allowed us to enjoy our trip to the fullest. She is a great communicator and truly cares for your pets as her own. We will definitely be booking her again!!”
“Ms Heather was a God send! She was great with our furry babies, we could not have asked for a better experience from any individual or company. We are looking forward to her services in the very near future!”
“Michelle and Blake were very kind and left my house clean. They were both attentive to my dogs and provided updates daily to me. Her communication was excellent and we had no issues. :)”
“We had such a great experience with Dawn K! Taking care of three labradoodles is no small task, but she handled everything so smoothly and professionally. Our dogs were clearly happy, well-exercised, and well cared for when we got back. What really stood out was how clean everything was—the yard was spotless, and the house was just as tidy as we left it (if not better!). It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets and home were in such good hands. We would absolutely book again (I already have done so) and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive sitter!”
“Tim is awesome! I’ve used many sitters through Rover and Tim is the best! This is the 2nd time he has watched my 4 dogs and chickens at my house. He feeds them and spends a great deal of time with them. He also goes above and beyond by sweeping my floors and washing the bedding in my guest bedroom he slept in. It’s nice going on vacation and not having to worry. It’s also great coming home from vacation to happy dogs and a clean house.”
About: I have had dogs all my life, they are my fur babies. I also have had cats as well. I love all animals and treat everyone's fur babies as if they were my own. I have experience with all types of dogs, as I have had small dogs to large dogs. I also volunteer with one of the local animal rescues. Love to throw a ball around with the dogs or just snuggle and give them belly rubs. Anything your fur babies like to do, I would be more than happy to provide them with the interaction they need. I have a very flexible schedule so being available for your pets needs is no problem at all. Walks, play-time, baths, or just some quiet snuggle time. Your dog will have a great time on walks or playtime with me. Look forward to time with your fur baby! If you have a kitty, I am able to provide care & play for them while you are away as well. Also can help with horse care too. Look forward to meeting you and your fur babies soon. Let's set up a FREE meet & greet to find out how I can make life easy for your fur babies while you are away. I work from home. I have a pretty flexible schedule. I do book up fast. Please try and notify me as soon as possible. Love to help take care of your fur babies. I take care of everyone's fur babies as if they were my own. Always make sure they are safe whether it is on a walk or in the safety of your secured backyard.
“Jasmin was great! She is very responsible and took great care of my dogs. She also sent us pictures and kept us updated every day. I would definitely recommend her and I plan to use her again!”
“Marci is literally the best! Our dogs are elderly and she took such thoughtful care of them and gave us the best photos and updates! She also took amazing care of our home! We highly recommend her and will book her again!!!”

About: I have grown up with animals since I was a child, and even have my own dog now. Beyond that, I started pet sitting at a young age for family friends and neighbors. I have also spent summers in-house sitting for family in my surrounding area. I have been trusted to bathe, feed, walk, and create extended care for others’ animals. I’m a student in college, so I have plenty of time to spend with your dogs! I have a few classes during the week. Otherwise, I am available to check-in and care for your pets. I have a dog of my own who I care for independently. I will most definitely treat your pups and cats with the same amount of love and care that I give my own. If there are any accommodations, such as crating or boundaries, or feeding requirements, I would be more than happy to adjust my procedures.
About: Ready to give your pets the best vacay possible? All animals deserve the best love and care and when you’re not there I’m the one to give it!

I also have a dog that will make yours feel comfortable. I am very attentive and watch for signs of what they are needing whether it be a walk or needing a small treat!

FAQs for House Sitting - Meldrim
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Meldrim on Rover is $45.48 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 628 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Meldrim. 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 Meldrim 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 Meldrim 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 Meldrim 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 Meldrim. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
