Meteor showers are just trails from decaying comets that intersect Earth's orbit, so there would logically be trails that intersect other planet's orbits.
How does a meteor shower occur?
Meteor showers occur when a meteor comes too close to the earth and gets drawn in by the earth's gravity. The light you see trailing behind the meteor (shooting star) is Ice melting off of it from the sun's heat.

They appear when Earth passes through a dirty part of space, usually through the trail left by a comet. There are particular times of year as we orbit the Sun that we pass through these areas of space. The Perseid Meteor Shower occurs in August, for example. The Leonids occur in November. They usually have a peak night, but you will see meteors on other nights around the peak. Some meteor showers are better than others and factors like weather and what phase the Moon is at will influence how much you can see and how bright some of the meteors will appear to be.

When we see a meteor showerit means that?
When we see a meteor shower, it means that Earth is passing through a stream of debris left behind by a comet or asteroid. As these small particles enter the Earth's atmosphere at high speeds, they burn up and create bright streaks of light, known as meteors. Meteor showers typically occur at specific times of the year when Earth intersects these debris trails. Prominent meteor showers, like the Perseids or Geminids, can produce many visible meteors per hour under optimal conditions.
