“I was so happy with the care Kaela gave my three dogs while I was away. She administered eye drops to my one dog who is admittedly temperamental at times; she provided photos throughout her stay to ensure me that the dogs were alright; the backyard was picked up and water tubs were full; I believe she even cleaned my house! She is an absolutely trustworthy, respectful, and responsible individual. I will definitely call her to dog sit again!”
“Maddison was incredible! The pups and cat adored her, we will absolutely use her again! She communicated any issues and sent lots of updates, pictures and videos of what they were doing, and playing. The animals felt right at home with her and we felt very confident and comfortable leaving her with them and our home.”
“This was our first experience with Rover.com and Daela. I was feeling anxious and really appreciated the initial visits for reassurance. Daela was very comfortable and so willing listen to and apply my "list". We have a puppy and 2 cats. I appreciated the pics and communication while we were away. We arrived home to happy pets, well cared for, and a tidy house. We will definitely be calling her again. Thank you. ???”
“Avivah was wonderful! She came in at the last minute when my normal sitter was unable to watch Nina. Responded right away to any questions. Sent me photos and updates throughout the trip. She even got my shy girl so comfy as to be able to send cuddling pictures. I will absolutely use Avivah again to sit for Nina.”
“Monica was absolutely fantastic! Our pups loved having her there, especially our dog who is terrified of fireworks. Knowing they were safe, comfortable, and well cared for gave us so much peace of mind. We will definitely be using Monica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Monica! ❤️”
“Leslie was so great with my two pups while I was out of town for the weekend! She gave them a lot of attention and provided me with plenty of updates/photos to make me feel at ease. They had such a great time with her, and I will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Kat was wonderful. I could tell my dogs were at ease around her, and she sent updates every day. My home was exactly how I left it, which was so nice to come back to. She's so chill and understanding, and took notes as I overexplained everything.”

“Gina was a great sitter for our puppy while on a weekend trip! Took great care of our house and our 6 month old puppy. Sent multiple pics each day and kept us updated with everything! Easy to communicate with and we felt very comfortable leaving our home and puppy in Gina’s hands! Will be our go to for future sitting needs :)”

My dog of 14 years recently passed away a couple of months ago so I looking to get more experience with any animal.
“Richelle was a great communicator and took wonderful care of Payson during the 4th of July weekend. She sent so many updates and asked questions to make sure he felt at home. She also helped tidy our home which we’d weren’t expecting and which was such a weight lifted when we got back!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sun City
Sydney was amazing with our cavapoo! He tends to have anxiety when he knows we are leaving and she was able to navigate it brilliantly which made us feel more at ease too. She communicates well and sends pictures daily. Very professional. I highly recommend her.
I almost don’t want to leave this review so Kalin doesn’t get booked up the next time we have a trip lol but of course I want her to have lots of business when we can be at home with our Dexter. He always is very happy to see her under the stressful circumstance of us pulling out that evil luggage which means we are about to disappear for a few days. Kalin is reliable, communicative, and loving to our pup so it’s a great piece of mind to have when we can’t be there with him ourselves. Thank you as always!
It is obvious that Angela is very experienced, kind, and patient with her four legged babies. She arrived when she said she would, stayed as we agreed and I felt gave my little girl the best care possible, in my home. Her sense of responsibility and committment is very comforting.
Sydney did an excellent job caring for our pets and keeping our home tidy (it can be hard sometimes with so many animals in the house)! We have a big crew and she managed effortlessly and kept us updated along the way. I would recommend her to anyone and will love to use her services again in the future!
Jean is a wonderful pet sitter! She cared for my 5 lb Yorkie, Mindy, in our home. Mindy LOVES Jean. I could tell from the numerous pictures she took, including doggie kisses. Jean was in communication with me daily which is so important to this doggie momma. She cared for our home like it was her own. Thank you, Jean, for the great service you provided. I will definitely be hiring her again. 💗
Daela has a big heart for animals! She is loving, responsible, and thoughtful. She took great care of our little 2 year old dog, who we left for the first time in her life. Our dog had anxiety and was so uncertain at first. Daela was patient, giving Goldie her space while always being available to her. I would highly recommend her!
We couldn't have asked for a better pet and house sitter! She stayed in our home for two weeks while caring for our dog, Kona, and gave us complete peace of mind the entire time. She sent constant photo updates, which made being away so much easier, and it was obvious from every picture how happy and well cared for Kona was. She truly went above and beyond. Not only did she make sure Kona was well-fed and even picked up more food for him when he needed it, but she also took wonderful care of his skin (bulldogs can be difficult!) and overall well-being. When we came home, Kona was happy, healthy, and clearly loved. She also took exceptional care of our home. It was absolutely spotless when we returned, and she even took care of extra household tasks like outdoor cleanup and taking out the trash. On top of all that, she left us thoughtful goodies, which was such a sweet surprise. She is reliable, communicative, caring, and incredibly thoughtful. We trust her completely and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets and home. We will absolutely be booking her again!
Vanessa was so great with my three dogs…she made sure that their feeding and medication schedule was followed, she took extra care with my one dog who was timid and afraid, and she left my house as clean as it was before my trip. I will definitely be contacting her again for our next trip!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Sun City is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $78 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 4,002 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sun City. 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 Sun City 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 Sun City 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Sun City 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
