“I had a great experience with David while he watched my dog, Marleigh. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about Marleigh’s comfort and routine. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. It’s obvious he truly enjoys working with animals, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust him with Marleigh again. Highly recommend!”
“Tina saves the day. Always dependable always responsive. Am so grateful to have her taking care of my fur baby. We are so lucky to have her in our community and it gives me such a sense of peace to have her looking after my little one when I can’t.”
“Grace did a great job with our dog, Avery. We met her to drop off keys prior and she was on time and very friendly and nice. She took good care of our Avery and we'd highly recommend her to others.”
About: Lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for puppies through senior dogs. I’ve helped rescue and rehome dogs, so I’m confident working with different needs and personalities. Attentive, active, and consistent with care. I work from home full-time, so I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. I can easily schedule walks, playtime, and feedings, and my fenced yard allows for safe outdoor time. I keep a clean, safe, and calm environment in my home. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, respect your space, and make sure your pet stays on their normal routine. I’m reliable and detail-oriented.
“Marina is absolutely THE BEST! Since the first meeting all the fur babies loved her, she has such a great energy around them. During the entire time kept us at ease with updates, pictures and even videos. Our beloved pets were cared for like if we were there, we traveled with the peace of mind that everything was in order, which was priceless. We are so grateful for her professionalism, kindness to our pets and understanding to our needs. We were really lucky to find her! BEST EVER!!!”
“Marti came over the day before to get acquainted with the dogs and for us to meet her and what we needed for the dogs . The next day she came over twice to take the dogs out and visit with them. Over all we and the dogs had a very good experience.”
“Halle did an excellent job watching my cat for 10 days while I was gone. The photos she sent me every day show him looking up at her adoringly. He was clearly in love! She also left my house (and the litter box!) spic and span, which is very much appreciated. Highly recommend.”
“Kaytee was wonderful with Wally! She took him for a great walk and he was happy and tired when he got home. Kaytee was really good with communication and sent pictures of her visit with Wally. We would absolutely recommend her and when we visit the Keys again, we will definitely book her! Thank you, Kaytee!”
“Deborah was wonderful with our Rosie and Raven. Raven is very skittish and she was patient and worked with her and Raven even ate out of her hand by the end of the visit. She kept us posted on her visits and sent many pictures. I am very thankful to have found her for our girls.”
About: I’m currently a pet mom of 2 awesome pups and also have multiple grand pups and cats! I grew up on a farm raising every kind of animal imaginable and have continued my love for all animals throughout my adult life. One of my current pups is deaf so I have experience with special needs and my daughter works at the local vet which offers me extra perks as well. I absolutely love all animals (probably more than humans😜) and will take care of your babies like they are my own! I am self-employed and work from home so my schedule is super flexible. I can stay at your home for overnights or simply come visit your babies every couple of hours for walks, feeding and playtime. Depending on your pet (dog only), I can also bring them to my home for playtime with my pups. I am super attentive (maybe too attentive!) and very cautious when dealing with any animal. I understand they are your babies and safety is number one! If we visit my home, my dogs are super friendly sandbar dogs and I have a fenced yard for everyone to play.
About: Growing up I had many pets, my mom could never say no so we were often a foster home for strays. In college I worked two years in a veterinary clinic and boarding facility. Now, I work as a seasonal wildlife biologist and though they are not domestic animals, my life is dedicated to the comfort and well being of all animals! I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes as well as some exotic pets. Currently I am working as a delivery driver making my own schedule, so whatever is needed I most likely can make it work for you! I have three roommates who are more than willing to give extra loving! I'm also a runner, so if your puppy is one with extra energy I'm sure I can keep up with them!
“Lindsay was amazing! She was exactly what we need to check in on Rue all day! She was friendly and kind and on time! Would highly recommend for all your fur baby needs!”
About: Hi! I’ve been around pets for over 20 years, ever since I lived in Mexico, so I truly understand how much they mean to us—they’re part of the family. I’ve always loved being around animals, caring for them, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I have a home with a fully fenced yard, which is perfect for dogs to play, explore, and enjoy themselves safely. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Happy to help your dog to be health and socialized more. Im available monday - friday 4-7pm Tuesday and thursday 8-10am, im gonna make sure your dog receives the best care possible. I have a fenced big yard and a cute almost 3y lil boy that also loves dogs to play with. If you dont have time I can walk your dog around our neighboor hood
About: I have lived in the keys for over 12 years and have helped many residents find dogs to adopt and have helped with training and exercising dogs. I have been caring for dogs and cats most of my life. I run a non profit animal rescue and have cared for as many as 20 dogs at a time. I am a PhD professional and I work from home. I am looking to raise money for my rescue and looking for dogs to exercise with. My 3 dogs will only do so much!! It has always been challenging to find people I trust to sit my dogs or care for them if I can't so I want to help my neighbors by offering this service. Let's discuss what I can do to assist you and your furry friends in living your best balanced life together. I work from home so I can easily take a break to let your dog out or take him for a run or walk. I can even take him to a sandbar or a paddle board ride. Dogs for boarding or day care in my home will be based on a case by case basis. I will come to your house as many times as needed to care for your pets. Dogs that come to my house will be exercised in whatever way they need, I have a fenced yard. I prefer to have over night dogs crated...but any over night dogs will be screened prior to make sure it's a good fit.
“We are super thankful to have Dawn to spend some time with jag and take care of him while we were away for a week. She’s very nice and responsive in letting us know that jag was taken care of. We would certainly have her back if we go away again.”

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Big Pine Key on Rover is $16.65 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 Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 113 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Big Pine Key. 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 Big Pine Key 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
