“Sarah was amazing to my dogs.

About: I have been taking care of animals, all my life volunteering and working on farms as well as having dogs and cats of my own. I have walked dogs for my neighbors before, as well as House sat and pet sit. I recently just graduated college and I work part time as a waitress so I am often very available and have a flexible schedule when needed When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. I ensure they have a clean environment, plenty of fresh water, and lots of love and attention. I also keep the owner updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain cleanliness while focusing on the pet’s emotional and physical well-being.
“This was our second time working with Rachel and she did an excellent job taking care of our dog while we were away. She is prompt, polite, and easy to communicate with.”
About: Throughout the years, I have had the privilege of caring for a multitude of pets. From energetic and playful youngsters to wise and delicate seniors. I have gained valuable experience in tending to the needs of beloved animals. Rest assured, I am fully equipped to handle all the responsibilities that come with caring for your cherished pet! I currently work from home and am able to care for your pet as if you were home. The most I would be away is for an hour or so. I am fortunate to possess a dog-friendly haven, perfect for leisurely strolls and a large fenced in yard for play! My home is always clean for myself and my guests, regardless of how many legs.
About: My family and I have fostered dogs for years. That hands-on experience has taught me how to handle everything from nervous rescues to high-energy pups with patience and love. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets like they’re my own. Whether your dog needs playtime, snuggles, or a calm routine, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and cared for. My job is hybrid so I’m in office 2 days a week but my work is flexible so there’s always room for adjustments. I care for pets exclusively in their own homes to help them stay comfortable in their familiar environment. Animals that love to cuddle or play go hand in hand with my personality. Tiring out a high energy dog is no easy task but I love a good workout. Doesn’t happen often but when a cat is feeling needy for some ear scratches and and the zoomies to start chasing a laser… I’m there!
““Aunt” Claudette and “Uncle” Will were amazing with Bella! Claudette took a chance on us very last minute, and I could not have been happier with the love and care Bella received! They got to know her personality very quickly, and treated her like one of their own! I would not hesitate to book Claudette again and hope future opportunities arise 😊”
“She truly puts so much effort into making sure your dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I will definitely be using her services going forward and highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! I’m Tyler! I’m a calm, detail oriented, and animal loving person who finds joy in caring for both cats and dogs. As a proud pet parent to two cats, I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family. I’m the kind of sitter who notices the little things; like when a pup seems a little more tired than usual or when your cat’s whiskers twitch just before they pounce. Whether your pet is shy and needs a gentle presence or full of energy and ready to play, I adjust my care to meet their needs and personality. With years of hands on experience and a true love for animals, I make sure every visit or walk is safe, engaging, and stress free for your pet (and for you!). From belly rubs and fetch to quiet cuddle time and careful medication routines, I’ve got it covered. Let’s set up a meet & greet, I’d love to learn more about your pets and how I can help! I make sure to feed, play with, and care for pets every day, paying close attention to their needs while giving them plenty of love and calm time. When caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment tailored to each pet’s needs. At your home, I follow your routine closely, including feeding, exercise, playtime, and any special care like medication or grooming. In my home, I provide a calm, loving space where pets feel relaxed and engaged with plenty of attention and affection. My goal is always to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress free while you’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sun City
We had an excellent experience with our dog sitter. She took wonderful care of our two dogs over a three-day period and kept us updated with regular check-ins and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. Our dogs were well cared for, comfortable, and happy when we returned home. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly experienced with handling multiple dogs. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable and caring pet care.

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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
