“Daniel was wonderful with my puppy. I was so nervous to leave my puppy for the first time and he made it a very comfortable experience. He had a great response rate to all my questions and was very personable. He came over for a meet and greet before I booked him, and sent me lots of pictures of their time together while I was away. After I returned, my puppy sat by the guest room door looking for her new best friend, you could tell she really missed him, it was really sweet! I will hands down book with Daniel the next time I need pet care!”
“First time using Rover. Overall great experience. Elise responds quick and was on time. She sent pictures and daily updates. Dogs seemed to really like her. We will be using Rover again!”

“Here’s a clean, warm option you can post as-is: We had a wonderful experience! Jenn took such great care of our dog, Theo, and kept us updated, which gave us total peace of mind. Our pup was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. Reliable, kind, and attentive — we would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for excellent pet care!”
“Ron and his wife Monica are the BEST house/pet sitters around. They really love our dogs and cat. More importantly, our dogs love them (cat too)! I feel so blessed to know them and know that all is safe in their hands when we're gone. They have become part of my family and I couldn't ask for anything more. Thanks so much, Ron and Monica!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Meridian
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.
Rosalyn came by for a meet and greet and then sat for us one afternoon. We have just added a puppy to our household so he’s a handful, but she was fantastic! She asked lots of questions about their schedule and habits and we knew they were in great hands when we left! She was on time and friendly! We’re already planning to use her again!

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.
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 $42.8 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 946 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.
