About: Hi, I’m Hailey! I’ve had a deep love for animals since I was little—always rescuing, adopting, or begging my family to let me bring home every creature I found (yes, even bugs and fish!). Caring for animals is second nature to me, and I’d love the opportunity to give your pets the same love and attention I give my own. My home is full of love and energy. I have an 12 year-old son who is gentle, playful, and absolutely adores animals. I also have a sweet 4 year-old who keeps to herself and doesn’t interact much but loves watching the pets. Rest assured, your furry (or scaly🤪!) friends will be safe, spoiled, and treated like family here. I’m currently looking to do something I genuinely love—helping care for animals—while also earning a little extra to support my family. Your pets will be in loving, responsible hands. I can’t wait to meet them! During the summer, I have open availability, so your pets will have around-the-clock care and attention. I’m home all day and rarely leave except for quick errands. During the school year, I still offer boarding and daytime care—I work very close to home and always come back during lunch to check in. My schedule is flexible and I’m committed to making it work for you and your pets. I’m available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends. Just let me know when you need care, and I’ll do my best to help however I can. Your pets will be loved, spoiled, and safe here—just like family. We have a big fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, play, or just relax. I also have friendly dogs who love company, but if your pet prefers space or alone time, I’ll make sure their needs are fully respected. I can easily crate your dog if needed or wanted, but we’re big cuddlers over here and love letting animals sleep with us or on the couch with if that’s something your pet enjoys and that’s something you are okay with. :)

“Marisa is a true gem! She took amazing care of our Rottweiler as if he was her own! We asked she come 3 times a day and she didn’t skip a beat! I recommend her 110%!!! Thank you, Marisa!”

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs over the years since I was a child. I have done drop in visits, boarded dogs and am good with following rules/directions from the owner. I have had dogs my whole life! I also was in 4-H and have trained dogs. I know some tricks to teach your dog. But mainly my role on rover is, I want your dog to think of my home as a sanctuary and have them have fun and feel loved on their get away. I have always loved animals and they are in safe hands. I have 2 fur babys as well, a pug and a brussel griffon who love dogs and love to play. My schedule is extremely flexible being a small business owner. I never leave the house for work until 9:30 am or later in the day. I am up at 6 am for my dogs. I have lunch break to come check on the pups and work close by to come home for breaks. Since my business is appointment based, I only work when I have appointments booked in my calander. I also will block out time to go check on the dogs. I always am off work Sundays and Mondays and occasional Saturdays. I have a big fenced yard. I can crate your dog if needed when I am not home. I also have a pug and brussel griffon to keep them company who love other dogs. :)

About: I've always loved animals since I was a child and grew up with dogs cats and quite a few others. I've been taking care of neighbor's pets and family members' pets for years. Sadly, my sweet senior boy passed away a few months ago and I am happy to help watch your pet and get all the snuggles and time that I can with them while you're away! I work full time Monday-Friday but I can reliably come by for morning and evening care. Weekends are usually open and I have my own transportation. Drop-in care is preferred so I can meet your pet where they are most comfortable while you are away and they our out of their normal routine.

About: Hi, I’m Meg! I was born and raised in central Florida, but in 2006, my husband and I made the big move to Idaho to build a safe and peaceful life for our family. We’ve been in the Boise area for 19 years now, where we raised our three boys—who are all grown now—alongside our beloved fur babies. I’m a nature lover and passionate animal enthusiast. I enjoy backyard fire pit time, porch sitting, stargazing with my husband, movie nights, and family game nights with our kids. I adore all animals—big and small—and truly believe our furry companions bring so much joy and meaning to our lives. With over 21 years of experience caring for animals, you can feel confident that your pets will be safe, loved, and well looked after while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! Pet care fits into my daily routine naturally and is something I truly enjoy. I plan my pet care responsibilities around my work schedule to ensure each animal gets the time, attention, and care they need. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, or just relaxing together, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. It’s not just a task—it’s something I genuinely look forward to every day. In my client’s home, I do my best to follow their usual routine to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of playtime, and of course, lots of love and attention. I also keep the home tidy and always respect the space as if it were my own. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I am primarily on this app to be of service to our dog training clients when they go out of town. I am sometimes available to take other pets, but not always. I understand that each animal has their own personality and quirks. I am able to care for pets of any age. I have experience administering medications as well. I work full time at a dog training facility. I spend most of my free time taking care of animals. I am able to bring pups to work with me during the day, so I can potty and let them run around on my breaks throughout the day. I will either bring your pup to my house or go to yours! Whatever your preference is. I do have two dogs of my own, both are friendly to all different types of pets. We also have a cat, so my dogs know how to behave around them (not chasing, bothering, etc.) As I mentioned above, I work at a training facility and will be able to bring your pup to work with me instead of them being home alone during the day. I have lots of experience crate training dogs, and can help continue or start that training for you.
“Lori did 4 drop ins for us this week and we cannot wait to use her again! She left detailed notes, took great pictures, always on time, and even stayed longer than required. Thank you Lori!!!”

“Kelci has been wonderful with our shy cat! Even though our kitty tends to hide when we’re away, Kelci is always so patient, gentle, and understanding. She takes the time to make sure everything is perfect and keeps us updated with sweet messages! We really appreciate her care and reliability — we’re repeat, very happy customers!”

About: Growing up alongside animals of all kinds including goldfish, guinea pigs, cats, and dogs it has given me a lifelong love for pets. Currently, I manage a demanding, high activity routine of my own five year old female Rottweiler. Though my expertise lies heavily in handling large, high energy breeds, I am also well versed in providing the gentle, attentive care that senior or slower paced dogs require. Caring for your pup is my priority, because I am home full time, I can dedicate my day to their well being and comfort. You can have total peace of mind knowing your dog will receive constant companionship and will always be within my sight or reach. Pets can safely burn off energy in my fully fenced in backyard alongside my friendly female Rottweiler, who loves making new friends. To ensure a balanced and stress free stay, I also offer dedicated separate rooms so every pet can have cozy downtime and their own personal space whenever they need it.
“Bailey is so good with my little dog. The 2nd time she came over, Fuji saw her coming to the door and wagged her tail like crazy! Bailey has the energy to give Fuji a workout like we as seniors sometimes don't have. We are very glad to have found Bailey!”

About: I'm a huge dog lover and I enjoy spending time and learning more about dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My family has 4 year old Standard Poodle that I've helped raised and take care of since he was a puppy. That being said, I understand the amount of patience and attention dogs need to feel happy and comfortable. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, shy and reserved or somewhere in between, I'm pretty confident handling all types of energy levels. I believe that every dog deserves the best care, love, and a safe, comfortable environment while their family is away. When I'm with your dog, they'll always be my top priority. I'll treat them with lots of love, care, and affection like I would with my own pets. Making sure they feel comfortable, happy and safe is important to me! My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and dependable hands. :) Currently my schedule is very flexible. I am available most weekdays, weekends, and even holidays. Please feel free to message me to ask about my availability!! Let me know what you and your pet needs. I can accommodate to your fur babies daily routine, from feeding to walking, light grooming and more.
“Traci did a great job with our pups. One can be very guarded with a new walker but Traci got her to loosen up. Traci is very reliable and was there everyday at the agreed upon time. Which is a wonderful attribute for a dog sitter/walker. Thank you Traci.”
About: My family has owned cats and/or dogs since I was a child. I've been a cat or dog owner in my own home since 1999, became a dog trainer in 2017, and started housesitting for people with pets in 2021. I've worked with the same client - a world-renowned bodybuilding transformation expert from Wales, along with his wife - nonstop since 2021. My work for them involves taking care of their pitbull (who was 2 when I started with them), including two 30-minute walks per day, feeding him twice a day (and making sure he sits and waits to eat, per their instructions), making sure he has plenty of fresh water to drink, letting him out to go potty (if he's not already outside in their fenced backyard), and petting/playing with him. In addition to cleaning up for myself, I go above and beyond for them with things like watering plants, rotating laundry (they've never asked me to), vacuuming, wiping down the kitchen counter, taking out the garbage I fill up, and emptying (or turning on) the dishwasher. I also send them plenty of pictures of their sweet boy (something previous sitters hadn't thought to do) and communicate with lots of updates, including when I arrive and when I leave at the end of the stay. I bring and eat my own food for overnight/longer stays, because I'm usually eating for a goal, and it's just easier to bring what I need. I've also been a housesitter for a woman with six labs. It involved feeding them and letting them into the backyard at specific times, and in a very specific order. Right now, I'm dog mom to sweet blue heeler X named Juno. I currently work from home with a flexible schedule, so as long as there's an internet connection, I can work from anywhere. This means I can easily swing by your place for walks or drop-ins. It also means staying at your place to watch your fur babies in their own comfortable environment is very doable, too! As a dog and cat owner/lover myself, I understand how vulnerable it is to entrust your fur baby's care to anyone else. As a dog trainer, I understand how to meet dogs where they are and help them feel safe and loved. I care for your fur baby/babies as if they were my own. When I stay in someone's home, I like to leave things better than I found them, which means cleaning up after myself, watering plants, taking out the trash, bringing in the mail - so that when you get back, you're coming back to peace instead of chaos.
“Faith is great. She really likes our kitties and they really like her. The daily check-ins kept us connected and we could tell all was well. We highly recommend Faith to anyone looking for the best in pet care.”

“Kristina took great care of our two cats. We adopted them 5 months ago so they are still a little skittish but she won them over. Loved the updates, pictures and videos. Also, one of our cats threw up and she let us know right away and cleaned it up. I would highly recommend Kristina and will use her again in the future.”

I was so thoroughly pleased with having Ava take care of my dog! She sent multiple photos with each visit which I absolutely loved! She communicated nicely, and was very attentive to my dog’s needs!! I wasn’t worried at all because I knew she was taking such great care of him for drop ins! I highly recommend Ava and would use her again should I need Rover services in the future!

Mitchell is fantastic! He loves cats and extremely knowledgeable about their care. My cats all were happy and healthy while I was gone, and he made sure to play with them. He adds plenty of pictures for each check in so you can see your fur babies too. I was nervous leaving them alone with a babysitter for the first time, but he knew what he was doing and thought of stuff I didnt even think of, such as what to do in an emergency and taking them to the ER if needed. This is the longest Ive ever left my cats, and knowing they were being cared for by Mitchell made it so much easier.

Yasamin was exactly what I was looking for! She did a fantastic job taking care of everything I needed and wanted. I have two cats, and one of them requires insulin injections, which she handled without any problems. She went above and beyond by giving my kitties lots of love and even playing with them and their toys! When one of my cats threw up on the carpet, she found some cleaner and took care of that, too. I couldn’t be happier with her care and thoughtfulness. I will definitely be using Yasamin again and highly recommend her! ❤️🐱

We had a great experience! She took wonderful care of our dog, followed all of our instructions exactly, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. She also spent time hanging out with our dog instead of just stopping by to feed and leave, and that meant a lot to us. On top of that, she was willing to help us on very short notice after our original plans fell through, and we really appreciated her flexibility. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative Rover sitter!

Five stars for Jamie! She did fantastic drop-in visits for Chewy, providing walks, feeding, and consistent updates. The photos she sent made it clear that Chewy trusted her and was in great hands. She was also highly professional and accommodating when my schedule changed. I will absolutely be using her again and recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable, caring dog sitter! Thank you so much!

Casey was great with our elderly little guy. She took great care of him. She was able to do drop-in visits for us twice a day to give medicine & food. She took him out for walks and sent us lots of pictures. It was great to see some pics of him each day and to get updates. I felt comfortable with her coming into our home and checking on our dog. We will be using Casey again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Meridian is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,518 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Meridian. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Meridian. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
