“Daniel was so great! He came over and met my fur children before I left for my trip and I felt very comfortable leaving them in his care! He was great with sending me updates throughout my trip and left my house pretty much as was when I left. He cleaned up after himself and my pups (since they had accidents inside and I had told him how I clean it). Would definitely have him back and couldn’t recommend a better house/fur children sitter!!!!”
“Danny did an amazing job taking care of our fur babies. We have two large Irish Wolfhounds and two pampered cats. He did not shy away from the challenge. The dogs loved him and enjoyed their long walks. Danny was great with communication… asked questions I didn’t even think about before we went out of town and communicated regularly with us with any questions that came up. Highly recommend him.”
“Kayla was fantastic from start to finish! Great communication while she house and dog sat Daphne go a week. She gave me a bunch of updates and pictures and I came back to my house just the way I left it! Daphne would love Kayla to house sit her anytime! Thank you Kayla!”
“I can't say enough great things about Traci-she took such good care of my dog Hazel and my home. She is easy and responsive to communicate with and was very attentive to Hazel's needs. Traci went above and beyond caring for Hazel when a health issue arose, which was so very reassuring to me that she was in good hands. Thank you, Traci-you're the best!”
“Andrea was fantastic! She took great care of Duncan and the house. We received updates with pictures through out the day. You can tell she really puts a lot of time and energy into the animals she cares for. We will definitely contact her for future visits!!”
“Christian did everything that was expected. House was left clean. Both of my big dogs were walked at least once a day, and also played with outside. They were given lots of attention. I would use him again.”
“Second time Mignon has watched our dogs. Came home to happy pets and our house was cleaner and more organized than when left! Communicates very well with us and I love the pictures/videos she sends. Definitely recommend, she is great! Already have her booked for the next stay. :)”
“Erin was awesome!! She was quick with responding, provided pictures and updates of Max while we were gone and had a great fenced yard that Max loved 😃. Will definitely use her again!!”
“Ron and Monica watched our fur baby for 10 days and we felt so comfortable leaving her in their care. They walked her and took such good care of her that I doubt that our baby missed us at all! They went above and beyond taking care of our home and we will definitely use them next time we go out of town. We highly recommend Ron and Monica as responsible and caring pet sitters.”
“I was so very grateful for Emily. She sent pictures, texted, responded quickly to my texts. When she came to do a meet and greet, before we went on vacation, I knew in a few minutes that I could trust her with my house and my three 80lb+ dogs. I was able to relax on vacation knowing she is very responsible and communicative. Thank you again and again Emily. I will recommend you to all of my friends up here on the mesa. Tracy McDonald”
“Dyllan did a great job while I was on vacation. Bowie was well taken care of and the house was all in order. I find Dyllan to be very responsible. I’ll have her watch Bowie again.”
“Wendy was great. I was gone for several days for work and she stayed with my chiwas. I am deeply attached to my dogs/family. I got a few pics which was great since i missed them terribly. When I got back home everyone was happy and healthy. I would definitely recommend :)”
“Ashley was pretty much the best house sitter i have had in a very long time. My cat was very well taken care of, she sent plenty of updates, kept my home in good order and even left me a thank you card and drew a picture of my cat by hand for me :) Will be using her again!!!”
“Shaun was very engaging with our dog and made sure he was active and well cared for while we were gone. He also took very good care of our home and made sure we were satisfied with its condition before he left. I would recommend Shaun and would be pleased to hire him in the future.”
“Nikki and Britney provided wonderful care for my two Golden Retrievers. I needed someone for a half a day, two days in a row. They arrived on-time, gave my boys lots of love, and sent lots of pics. The boys were very happy when I got home. I would highly recommend them to others.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Meridian is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Meridian
We had the best experience with Erin. This was the first time we hired a dog sitter, and it was perfect. Erin was so good with our three dogs. She was caring and attentive to each dog’s individual needs and personalities and she spent a ton of time playing and interacting with them. She was very professional and asked great questions. She managed dog medications and complicated meal routines with ease. She was super responsive when I checked in and proactively sent me lots of photo, video, and text updates. Also, she left things so tidy we couldn’t even tell someone was there! She made our time away from home so much less stressful. I would definitely recommend her, and we will absolutely be booking her services again.
Arica was an incredible dog sitter, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She was so kind, patient, and caring with our dog, who can be a little anxious at times. She kept us updated throughout our trip with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her communication was excellent, and she was always reliable and thoughtful. It was obvious she genuinely cared about our dog like he was her own. We’re so grateful for everything she did and are already looking forward to having her watch him again in the future. 100% recommend!!
I am in awe of the care our animals and home received from Mignon while we were out of town. While the kitty was more elusive (we knew she would be), the dog got to live her absolute best life with Mignon! We now pale in comparison. In addition to watering the flowers, feeding the squirrels, taking Stella for car rides and visits to new places - she kept us updated on a daily basis with texts and photos. Our house was cleaner when we got home than when we left. To top it off, she left a lick mat in the freezer for Stella and the sweetest diary of her experiences with the "kids" in our home. I want to keep her all for myself, but I do HIGHLY recommend Mignon if you need someone to care for your animals and home while you are away. She is amazing!
Cecilia was great with our 2 senior dogs and our last minute trip. She communicated promptly and eased all my worries while I was overseas. She also sent lots of pictures. For my first experience with a sitter and rover this was great. Will definitely rebook.
Lisa was outstanding! She was friendly, personable, prompt, and communicative throughout the entire process. When we arrived home, our house was in immaculate condition. She even thoughtfully asked if we would like our sheets washed. Lisa was incredibly easygoing and adaptable, which I really appreciated. Everything felt effortless and stress-free. We look forward to working with her again in the future and would highly recommend her to others.
Duncan was well taken care of by Rosalyn! She sent us great pictures and videos of their play time. She took him for long walks and played fetch with him in the backyard. Rosalyn also took wonderful care of the house. Thank you Rosalyn! You went above and beyond! We look forward to using your services again!
As our first time using Rover, we scrolled through lots of options for a sitter, but after reading reviews, we felt Ava would be a good fit. And we made the right choice. After booking, we set up a time for her to meet us and Coby, and we felt a sense of relief that Coby would be in good hands. Ava arrived at the scheduled time, which allowed us to leave after we said our "see you laters" to Coby. Soon we were on the road, knowing Coby was being taken care of with Walks, Feedings, and support as she would be missing us too. Ava provided us with good communication and pictures, and it allowed us to not have to worry about Coby at all. We would definitely recommend Ava for anyone needing a dog sitter, and will most likely use her again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Meridian on Rover is $44.35 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 939 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Meridian. 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 Meridian 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 Meridian 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 Meridian 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 Meridian. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
