“Jack had a blast staying with Valerie and Kevin. He did lots of running and playing came back home and slept all afternoon. Next up he’s doing boarding, I’m sure he’ll have a blast!”
“Savannah, took us on very last minute which allowed us to see friends we hadn’t seen in quite a while. When we went to pick Charli up she seemed very happy and went over to toss a few of the many toys she had around.”
About: I have two goldendoodles named Lacy & Prince. I also have an english springer spaniel / doodle mix rescue, Manny. Lacy is 9 years old, Prince is 5, and Manny is 2. I work for myself so I create my own schedule, so I would love to spend my extra time loving on someone else’s fur babies! I am a sucker for all animals as I grew up on a farm in southern Illinois. At one time we had 13 family dogs, numerous cats, goats, donkeys, horses, you name it- all running around! I was made for this 😌 I am a stay-at-home mom and small business owner, which allows me to create my own schedule and be flexible throughout the day. Because I work from home & control my hours, I am able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I already care for and spend time with my own dogs every day. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have three friendly dogs of my own and understand how important it is to leave your pet’s care with someone you trust. I treat every dog as if they were part of my family, providing plenty of love, supervision, playtime, exercise, and cuddles. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and routine, and I am happy to provide photo and video updates anytime.
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve cared for my own animals, friends and family pets, and many adorable fur babies through Rover. I work from home so I can provide regular walks and play. Having the ability to work virtually and create my own schedule allows me to have plenty of time in my day for pet sitting. I can be available for lots of movement and walks. My home is pet friendly, clean, and has an enclosed backyard (brick wall). I have an 11 yr old who also enjoys having animals around and an 8 month old son. I'm available on weekends and weekdays and my husband is also home after work hours to help and love on our furry friends.
“I don't think I could have found a more entertaining place for Guido to spend his day. I'm just sad that they're almost an hour's drive for me, or I would continue using them. I think Guido is actually disappointed to leave.”
“Marisa was very kind with Mo. I booked a play date to make sure Mo was a good fit while I go out of town. With lots of photos and communication for the short visit; I will rest easy when I go on my trip. Mo looks forward to his next visit.”
About: As a proud owner of three rescue dogs and a cat, I have years of experience caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. I’m used to the beautiful chaos of a multi-pet home and know how to provide a safe, structured environment. Your pet will receive plenty of affection and personal care in a home that truly understands what it means to be part of the family. My day starts at 5:30 AM with morning potty breaks and a structured feeding schedule. After the school drop-off, I dedicated my mid-mornings to long walks and playtime. Since I am home throughout the day, I let the dogs out every two hours or whenever they bark to let me know they need a break. Your pet will be part of a consistent, active, and very attentive routine. Safety is my top priority. My home is set up to keep pets secure, with a fully fenced yard and constant supervision during outdoor time. Because I have a multi-pet household, I am an expert at managing slow introductions and ensuring every animal feels comfortable. I never leave guest pets unattended with my own pack, and I make sure my curious cat and friendly dogs interact safely with all visitors.
About: I am an avid animal lover I know you have heard that often but I do not discriminate dogs cats birds alike are all top on my list… I am currently working from home and will be able to fit any animal into my schedule I have a fenced in yard with a gate and I will never leave animals unassisted I have two dogs and one cat and that has never stopped me from taking care of any other animal either at my home or in the pets home It's my full time passion, I love meeting new pets and providing them a safe and friendly, playful environment that their families can trust. I have a fenced in yard and the dogs can play anywhere in the house. I also have a garage where they can run around in iCan. Take them to a doggie park if the owner says it’s OK my other dog will play with them and the cats love dogs.
“Sonia is absolutely amazing — truly the best sitter I’ve ever had. She gave constant, thoughtful updates and showed so much love, care, and attention to my pup. She even accommodated me last minute, which meant the world. She exercises my dog and treats her like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands. Thank you so much, Sonia”
“Kim was positively wonderful with our 2 small dogs. She was so warm & accommodating to their needs & provided videos, pics & feedback throughout the day. They had a great time with her & they were so happy at pick up. The yard is safe & fenced in, & they had easy access to the backyard. They were well taken care of & we’ll definitely be using her again.”
“This is our third time having our dog Abbie stay with Kathy during our stay in Arizona for baseball's Spring Training. Abbie loves going to Kathy's house. We rest assured that she is well taken care of and is given all the attention she needs (which is a lot) during her stay with Kathy. Thanks Kathy...see you next year!”
“Suzelande was very sweet and professional. She sent a bunch of pics and videos throughout the day, and my baby even took a nap at her house so I know he was comfortable. Will definiotely book again in the future (:”
“Brittany and her husband were fabulous! Jack loved staying with them for two days! They helped watch him while we were watching a golf tournament on the course they live on. We were a bit worried our Jack wouldn’t behave for them but he behaved much better than he does with us! My wife and I are convinced they are both Dog Whisperers! They were so good to Jack and I can tell he enjoyed being with them. They even sent us fabulous pictures of our Jack with the perfect AZ sunset in the background. 5 star rating and then some for sure!”
“This was my first time ever using this app and having anyone outside of immediate family watch my fur baby. I was so nervous and anxious but by day 2, my dog was crying for excitement when she realized where we were. The immediate updates and photos eased my mind so so much. Asia and Brennan are such lovely people and just really made the entire experience comfortable for me and my Yuki. Yuki will definitely be back so she can play with her new friend Berry. I can’t thank these guys enough for taking care of my girl and making sure she had the best time. Poor girl went straight to sleep after every day so she was so tired! 😂🩷”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sun City
Lamb Chop gave kisses and wags of approval, and was tired but not overly so for his elderly joints. He was able to rest and relax while mommy and daddy were, too. Lori was prompt and communicated clearly, remembered everything, and Lamby was clearly well looked after. He’s got a lot of allergy and skin related needs, so it’s always nice to find someone who’s conscious of what care that entails - no pun intended!
I’m so grateful for the amazing care my senior dog Bella receives! They’re incredibly attentive and send updates throughout my long 12-hour workdays. I get plenty of messages and pictures, and it’s clear Bella feels comfortable and well cared for. It gives me such peace of mind knowing she’s in such caring hands. Highly recommend! 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Sun City on Rover is $33.3 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Sun City commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AZ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 2,013 sitters in Sun City, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
