“SUPER, Tiffany and her family treated my dog (Mazie) like family. Especially, thru the hard time of Mazie not knowing where and why she was there. They texted me to keep me informed and we worked thru it together. Mazie, adjusted and finally relaxed and everything was good.”

“You couldn’t ask for better sitters! I received daily (unprompted!) updates including pics. I could tell they were really paying attention because they noted personality traits I had not mentioned, including my puppy’s fascination with lizards!”

“I couldn't sing higher praises of Rachel! Rachel's about me is exactly who Rachel is. A respectful, humble, and down to earth person with a deep reverence for animals and their pet parents. I had to go out of town on a family emergency, and Rachel generously accommodated me into her schedule. This is the first time that I have ever left my fur child outside of family Care, so I was naturally nervous. At the meet and greet I was instantly put at ease and the environment she creates for the pets she watches is exactly the way that I would keep my house. I felt put at ease talking to Rachel and had full confidence leaving my dog with her. Rachel's neighbors even had high praises of Rachel of how kind she is, and how much she loves animals! She took great care of my fur child, and even spoiled her more than I do! Daily walks, play time, letting my dog pick her favorite spot to take her daily naps, giving her allergy medicine and a lot of love! She went absolutely above and beyond my expectations. My dog got in the car and decided Thank you so much Rachel, not only for loving my fur baby as much as I do, but also for taking a part of the stress of this trip away! You are my definite go to for watching my dog, and my dog has her new favorite friend!”

“As most pet parents can relate, I was very apprehensive about leaving my furbaby, Bentley, with someone new while we were out of town. However, after a meet-and-greet with Nicole and her husband about a week before, I felt completely at ease. They were warm, welcoming, and very friendly. I got to see exactly where Bentley would be staying and meet their two sweet dogs—everything was clean, organized, and their fenced-in backyard was a big plus. Bentley usually gets along with other dogs, and he had no issues at all with theirs. Throughout his stay, Nicole sent me daily updates and plenty of photos (often more than once a day), which really reassured me and showed how content and well-cared-for he was. When I picked Bentley up, he was happy, relaxed, and didn’t experience any of the stress or stomach issues he’s had in the past after staying at boarding facilities. Nicole truly treated him like one of her own, and I couldn't be more grateful. I would absolutely use Nicole again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and responsible dog sitter. Thank you, Nicole, for taking such wonderful care of Bentley!”

Both dogs took to her very quickly and were clearly well cared for while we were gone. Tamara responded to messages quickly (before and during their stay), and made sure to keep us updated with pics and notes on how they were both doing. Highly recommended!”

“David is absolutely amazing! He watched my senior dog while I was out of town for a weekend and kept me updated with messages and photos. My dog Cupid felt like he was at home and not with a stranger. David by far is the best host I think anyone can ask and I’ll always be using David in the future! Only downside is I feel like my dog Cupid didn’t want to come with me because he has such a great time with David lol”

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received while I was out of town! 🐶❤️ From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. I received updates and could tell he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It gave me so much peace of mind being able to enjoy my trip without worrying about him. I truly appreciate the love, attention, and kindness you gave him. I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to take care of their fur baby. Thank you so much! 🐾💕

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Sun City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Sun City is $40 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $56 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 3,240 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Sun City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

96% of sitters in Sun City can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Sun City home-away-from-home, packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Sun City.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Sun City sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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 .

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 FL 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.

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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
