“Fiorella and her family were great! She responded when I needed someone to take extra care of my puppy at the last minute. I can tell by all the photos she sent throughout the day that Smoke was so happy to be there with her family and other pups. She was responsive and made sure to give me updates regarding his current stomach issue. She was so attentive and noticed a small detail about my puppy that I forgot to mention about him. I felt comfortable all day with him there with her. I will be a returning customer! Highly recommend!”
“Kaity and Sebastian did a wonderful job watching our pup! They were able to keep up our dog’s routine and sent updates and pictures throughout the day so we never had to worry about our girl. They took such great care of our dog and we can tell she had a such a fun time hanging out with Kaity and Sebastian!”
“I was very happy with Connie's flexibility. I need to drop my dog off pretty early, around 7am and that was no issue. My dog mixed with her 2 dogs easily. I will definitely book again. Security, safety and love. Can't beat that combination.”
“Andressa & Alex where the best sitters I’ve had in a long time. Welcoming from the beginning of connection. You can tell they really love dogs. My dogs have never been so tired and happy to see me. I think Bear and Tigger have found new sitters. Thank you guys and thank you for all the photos. Barbara Richardson”
About: I have owned and taken care of animals for a good part of my life. The past 15 years I have been sitting for friends as well as owning 3 dogs. I am now down to one dog Bella. I would love the chance to take care of your furry family member. I am home full time so your pets would be getting the attention they need to stay on schedule with walks, feeding, playtime or medications I live in a nice neighborhood with other dogs in the area. I do not have a fenced yard but do have a large screened in lanai for playing or just laying out in the sun.
“I’m a repeated customer and I can honestly say that Seda & Aron are awesome! Caring, friendly, and very communicative. Their house (and yard) are very welcoming and I feel safe leaving my dog with them! I received updates during the day which makes me feel much better, by the photos and videos I could see my dog was having so much fun! Definitely recommended!!!”
“Tressa was amazing. Our pup had his best day ever playing with her animals and kids. Lots of pics of Levi having a blast all day long and he is going to sleep so well tonight after all of the fun.”
About: I have been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. In addition to owning pets, I have pet sat for friends and family and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. My family is very pet-friendly, and my children love interacting with pets through playtime and affection while I provide all care and supervision. I am committed to ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and homeschool my children, which allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. Our family spends most of our time at home, providing pets with plenty of attention and supervision. While my children participate in sports activities on some evenings, pets are never left unattended for extended periods, and I plan my schedule to ensure they receive consistent care, exercise, and affection. My flexible routine allows me to accommodate each pet’s individual needs and maintain their normal schedule as closely as possible. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they can feel relaxed and at ease. I follow each pet’s regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, potty breaks, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of playtime and affection. Because I work from home and homeschool my children, pets receive frequent attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My goal is to make every pet feel like part of the family while ensuring they are safe, happy, and well cared for during their stay.
“My wife and I were extremely happy with Tamara. At first we were a bit nervous leaving our dog with someone other than family that he knew but Tamara made us feel very comfortable. She updated us throughout the day and treated our boy as if he was part of her family and we couldn’t have been happier. Definitely recommend using her and we will for sure be using her services again!!”
“Melanie was great with Rocky and before the day was over, they were friends. He had a great time with Bandit and the other dogs. This is so good for Rocky...he is socially challenged. Thank you Melanie for a great day. We will be back!”
About: I was a longtime volunteer with CARE in Ruskin, along with 2 years at Hillsborough County Pet Resource Center. Working in the Pitt Bull ambassador program. I had time to learn from the best instructors and trainers. I have experience with all breeds and age groups. I have lots of love and patience to give to your Fur Babies. I have recently retired, and I have lots of time now to get back into what I love and miss. I would love to get back into this field again. I have so much love for animals and would love so much to be able to help others. I don't have a fenced in yard, so I take walks around my community. I live in a gated community. We also have a small dog part here with lots of shade.
“I have only left my fur baby with 3 people in the last 5 years and Abigail is the 4th...I trust Abigail with Madyson... Madyson had love and attention not only from Abigail and Abigails daughter, but also from Abigails fur babies... I loved not only the updates about how Madyson was doing but also the pictures that Abigail sent to me... This was the first day, of I hope many days, that Madyson will stay with Abigail and play with her new friends... Thank you Abigail for giving me the peace of mind knowing that Madyson is loved and cared for when I am away and she is with you!”
About: Hi there, I'm JM! New to the Indy area and looking to give your pets the best care possible. I currently have two dogs and have had them for 10 years. Even though they are seniors, we stay very active with daily walks and trips to the dog park. My love for pets started at an early age when I adopted a cat at the age of seven. That started my lifelong love of pets. Since then I've raised two other dogs and cared for numerous pets. Friends often call on me to watch their dogs when they go out of town or take their dogs out for much needed outdoor time (whether that's smelling all the scents or just getting some exercise)! I have experience training dogs - I've trained three dogs including my current two. I work from home so I'm home most of the day. I also take classes, so I'm away from home 2-3 hrs M-Th. Classes vary I have a fenced backyard and there's a dog park in walking distance. Dogs will have free range to go outside when needed. I take my dogs out daily for walks and will offer the same service for dogs in my care. Dogs will have a separate feeding area and I have an extra room if pets are overwhelmed to relax. We have tons of toys and puzzles if your pets likes to stay busy.

Gabriela went above and beyond for my young puppy. I was nervous about leaving her with someone since she’s a puppy and still going through potty training. Gabriela accepted my fur baby with open arms and even suggested a bath and a nail trim, which was an amazingly convenient service option. We have a new long term puppy/ dog sitter in our family now.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Sun City Center on Rover is $37.45 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Center 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 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.
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 2,450 sitters in Sun City Center, 85% 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.
