“Madeline was fantastic with the 5 pups. Highly recommend her services. She went above and beyond to ensure that the pups were fed and loved while we were away with an especially rough week losing both in laws and an aunt in the same week. Can't compliment her enough.”
“Alex was absolutely great with our pups! She gave them tons of attention while she stayed with them for a weekend including some training, lots of walks, and even a hike! She sent lots of updates/photos and had excellent communication. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Brooks was excellent at taking care of our dog Cooper while we were away. They were very attentive and gave regular check ins on how Cooper was doing and what he was up to. The also administered medication as requested and followed all care instructions. I would definitely use them again in the future for my pet sitting needs!”
“Abigail immediately instilled such confidence for us leaving our Kolbe with her, it was such a relief. She’s extremely professional, highly communicative, easy to engage with, and Kolbe seemed to love being with her. He was totally his normal self when we returned which I think speaks volumes in puppy language. Very happy with Abigail’s service and will be booking her again!”
“I can’t recommend Gabriela enough! She helped me out on very short notice, and I’m so grateful she was available. My dog can be a handful—he’s big (around 100 pounds) and very affectionate—but she handled him with so much patience and confidence. It’s clear she really understands dogs, especially larger breeds, and knows how to manage their energy while still giving them the love and attention they need. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely great with dogs, Gabriela is the one!”
“10/10 recommend Karin! She took wonderful care of my car and dog while I was out of town for two weeks. It made me nervous to leave them for so long, but Karin quickly showed how much love and affection they’d get while she was there!”
“Hannah has been great to watch our dog multiple times when we are out of town. She is reliable with good communication throughout the stay. We will continue to reach out to her!”
“Emily watched our 4 babies: 2 dogs and 2 cats for 4 days while we went on vacation. She did everything we asked, and sent us so many updates and photos. We had never left them before, (and our oldest is almost 7). So to say I was anxious, is a huge understatement. She even got our extremely antisocial cat to interact with her, she’s the best.”
“Lo took great care of our dogs and the house. I will be using her again and highly recommend. My dogs take a minute to let new people in their circle and she did great with them. They loved her!”
“Sha was great! We could tell our dog fell in love with her quickly during the meet and greet. And when we arrived home our highly sensitive dog was in good shape and spirits. Sha was also very communicative about a power outage in our neighborhood and helped us trouble shoot things from far away. We definitely recommend her and will for sure call on her for pet sitting in the future!”
“Zoe did a great job caring for and watching our dog while we were out of town. She kept me up to speed on how things were going and was very responsive to my messages and texts. Upon our return, the house was in great order with all of the dog toys put away and everything like we had left it. We will reach out to Zoe in the future when we need to be away. Thanks again, Zoe!”
“Miranda took great care of our dogs and bunnies! She communicated with daily reports while we were gone. She went above and beyond to keep our house neat and tidy. As a first time Rover customer this was a great first experience. I would rebook with Miranda in the future, and recommend her to others.”
“Maddie did an amazing job. Stayed with my two cats for 10 days. She took great care of them and went out of her way to send me pics and updates. My kitties couldn’t have been in better hands.”
“Nicole was fantastic with my two senior dogs. She kept a consistent schedule, made sure they had their meds and supplements on time, and was an extremely respectful house guest. You can always tell your dogs felt safe and care for when they’re so calm greeting you after your trip. I would absolutely recommend her, she was amazing!”
“Alexis is the best!!! This was our first extended period of time away from Cubby (our 8 month old Great Pyrenees) and she made us feel so at ease. She sent daily pictures and updates. There were some curve balls that were thrown at her that she handled beautifully! We will 100% be booking her in the future!”
“This is the second time Jason has dog sat for us and just like last time he went above and beyond! He truly cares about our dog’s wellbeing even though one is special and hard to deal with sometimes 😅 thank you so much Jason!”
“As usual Trinity did a great job taking care of our furry kids. I got a lot of pictures and updates! And we always appreciate knowing what they are up to when we are not home. Thanks so much!!”
“My husband and I came to Indy for a car show. We needed someone to be with our new 3 month old puppy. Ellen was wonderful! She met me where I was at comfort wise as a new puppy mom! She was sweet to my baby and I appreciate the care she gave. I will be a repeat customer if I'm traveling to *Indy again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Meridian Hills
Alexandra was amazing! She took incredible care of Delilah and my home. She was active in playing with and walking Delilah. She sent many pictures and even sent a video, which was lovely. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a caring dog sitter!
Heather was awesome with our lab, Matilda. We felt totally comfortable with her and this made our overnight more enjoyable. Heather was patient with Matilda and went the extra mile when Tilds was being stubborn. We will definitely book Heather again and recommend her highly.
Sofia was so fantastic in communicating before and during Michigan’s sitting. Felt totally comfortable leaving Michigan with her and giving her total access to my house while away. She even took pictures to check in during the sitting. I highly recommend Sofia to other pet parents. 10/10
Brittany has become a go-to house sitter for me. My dog loves her. Her schedule aligns really well with my remote working schedule so the pal is never alone for long periods. I can leave the house with complete peace of mind knowing she’s going to be here for both short and longer stays. Thank you Brittany!!!
I can not provide enough positive feedback about Justin. He is professional, personable, responsible, proactive and extremely trustworthy. I have never left my chihuahuas, with anyone except a close family member, until Justin. I hope that Justin, will watch my fragile babies again! HE is amazing!
Holli & Susan are absolutely incredible!! We had them watch our three dogs (2 chihuahuas & 1 husky shepherd mix) for the first time for 4 nights and 5 days and they were so kind. They send us photos every day and communication was excellent the house was spotless when we came back too. I would highly recommend them!! They are the best!
I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received. Eileen was incredibly attentive and patient and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Not only were my dogs well cared for, but my home was too. Everything was kept tidy, secure, and exactly as I left it. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets and your home with real care, Eileen is the person you want. Truly outstanding service and someone I’ll absolutely book again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Meridian Hills on Rover is $29.96 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 1,485 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Meridian Hills. 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 Hills 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 Hills 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 Hills 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 Hills. On Rover:
- 94% 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.
