Raegan took great care of my two cats! My cats unexpectedly got into a bag of treats making a mess and Raegan cleaned it all up and gave us peace of mind while we were away from home. She even brought in a package for us which we really appreciate. Great communication throughout and we would definetly recommend!

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember — right now that’s a high-energy 2-year-old golden retriever who keeps me on my toes. I know what active dogs need: real exercise, play, and a calm routine they can count on. Friends and family trust me with their pets when they travel, and I treat every dog like my own. My home has plenty of space, and I’ll send you photo updates so you always know your pup is happy and well cared for. I’m currently working full time, but I’m available every night after 5pm if you need someone to walk your pet or feed them or just have someone to play with them! I have a big fenced backyard and a friendly 2 year old golden retriever who loves to make new friends! I can also crate your pet if needed!

Linnea did an amazing job. I needed a last minute sitter to drop in and check on my dogs and she was very communicative, efficient, and caring. She was also very flexible and went above and beyond to make sure our needs were met. I appreciate her so much.

About: Hi, my name is Klarissa and I am a reservist in the U.S. Navy. I have 2 furbabies named Ash (9) and Mona(4). Ash is a Border Collie mix and Mona is a Cavalier King Charles spaniel. I would be more than happy to do a meet and greet with your babies first. I really enjoy learning about each dog’s personality and their funny quirks. If your goal is to help train your fur baby, I can absolutely do my best to see what I can do to help achieve that goal in respecting your pups schedule and manners. I look forward hearing from you and seeing your adorable fur babies! My day to day schedule is flexible and manageable when needed for some fluff time. If any specific day or time is needed with your pup, please do not hesitate to ask. Safety is paramount. I have 2 dogs who I normally take everywhere with me or I leave at home. I live by a popular off leash dog park, but if your dog is not so friendly, I do not mind doing one on one walks with your pup. Your babies are my babies. I adore dogs and love everything about them from ears to toes. They are my family. In your home, I will treat your home as if it were mine. Any details please let me know of the home or of your precious pooch.

About: I have sat/walked/and cared for many dogs and cats many times. I also have experience with giving cats and dogs medication. I do well with keeping dogs calm when in distress. I used to be a vet tech and worked at a shelter. I am always free unless already taking care of another animal. I am super flexible as I do not have another job or taking classes at the moment. I have a yard and a friendly neighborhood. I also have a dog park near me, I do have 2 cats and 2 dogs so if your cat or dog does not do well with other animals then I cannot board animals in my home.

Cheryl was amazing caring for our dogs. This was the first time we had left them for more than a short time and she was awesome. Cared so much for our senior frenchie and our chiweenie. Sent tons of pictures and communication on how they were doing. Gave us peace of mind knowing she was dropping in on them. Went above and beyond when they were not eating and getting my girl to take her meds. She is the best!!!!

About: I have always been around dogs since I can remember. My mom got me my first dog when I was 8 years old and from there I have been in love with dogs. I’m currently working from home which gives me time to dedicate time spend with your fur baby and play with. My schedule most of the times is pretty flexible. I have a french bulldog that is very friendly and loves to play with other dogs. He loves to play ball and spend time running around. I do have a dog park near my apt which is most of the times empty.

About: I have experience with both cats and dogs, making sure they have fresh food and water, clean spaces, and lots of attention. I enjoy taking dogs on walks and keeping cats’ litter boxes tidy. Above all, I’ll make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. During July and the first half of August, I’m on my summer break from working in education, which gives me a much more flexible schedule. During this time, pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening drop-ins, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any other care needs. Because I’m not tied to the school-year schedule, I have the flexibility to take on recurring visits, extended care, or adjust times based on what works best for the pet and owner. On a weekly basis, I can consistently commit to scheduled visits and maintain a reliable routine, making it easy to provide dependable care throughout the summer months. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I prioritize keeping them comfortable and maintaining their routine. I ensure they have fresh food and water, clean up after them, and provide attention and playtime. For cats, I clean litter boxes regularly, and for dogs, I take them outside for bathroom breaks and walks as needed. Routine Updates: I’ll send updates and photos to keep you informed, so you can have peace of mind while away.

About: I have had the enjoyment of 3 cats and 3 dogs in my life over the past 45 years . There is nothing better than unconditional love from a pet. I was a professional pet sitter for a local business with rave reviews. Being the best caregiver for your furry family while you are away is my goal. If your pets need medications, no problem. I can handle that. While at your home, I will bring in your mail and set out and or take in trash barrels as part of my visit. I will snap a pix of your pet and send it to you on a daily basis, if you would like. I am retired and recently moved to Sun City Center. I have time in my life now to care for other pets when their family is in need of assistance. I know how difficult it is to find a dependable human to care for your pet. You can count on me. My area for sitting is within Kings Point, Sun City Center. If you are nearby, I will consider, but the rate will be adjusted to $22 per visit, based on your location. I will follow your routine that you have for your individual pets. I will feed, walk and play with your pets at your home and walk in your neighborhood.

About: Pets have always been an important part of my life. It’s easier for me to enjoy vacations knowing my furry friends are cared for by a sitter in their own home & I’m excited to offer you the same peace of mind. I have experience with cats, dogs, reptiles, & aquariums (additional fees apply—message me for rates if you have aquariums/reptiles you’d like me to check on while you are away. Also willing to water plants! I am available for in-house sitting or drop by. I do have appointments, volunteering, and occasional work on some days of the week, so let me know if you need a sitter in house at all times or if your pet is able to spend a few hours solo. For each client, I'll take into account your needs and my schedule to determine if it is a good fit for both of us and, of course, your furry friend! I am able to accommodate medication administration/particular needs if you show me what is needed. I can also keep up any training you are working on with your pet while you are away. Care can be customized to your pet’s needs during an initial visit. I am available to stay in-home for overnight stays. Please let me know if your pet needs someone on-site at all times or if they are able to be left alone at times and for how long.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Sun City Center

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Sun City Center on Rover is $18.19 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 6,793 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Sun City Center. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Sun City Center stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Center 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!

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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Sun City Center with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sun City Center. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
