You can't enable granular auto merges: I'm fine with auto merging minor/security update PRs from dependabot. Not anything else. You can't set up that.

You could probably use a GitHub Action and check the API for author of the pull request if you want to require additional verification. If have done something similar with auto accepting docs-only pull requests in the past.
Dependabot PM here:

We've provided an action that will provide metadata (e.g. semver bump) that you can use to enable granular automerge. See https://github.com/dependabot/fetch-metadata/#enabling-auto-... for an example.
