About: I’m a huge animal lover and the type of person who will absolutely stop to say hi to every dog I pass. I truly love caring for animals and making them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while their owners are away. I’ve been watching dogs and cats for years for friends, family, referrals, and people I’ve met along the way, and I genuinely enjoy every minute of it. Growing up, my family helped with dog rescues — and still do today — so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I love getting to know every pet’s unique personality. I also have experience with longer-term care and have watched pets for entire summers (up to 3 months at a time), so I understand how important consistency, patience, and trust are when caring for someone’s furry family member. My goal is always to make your pet feel like they’re on their own little vacation while you’re away and make sure they are happy, loved, comfortable, and cared for. I know leaving your pet with someone is a big deal, and I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and someone you can genuinely feel comfortable trusting with your pet. I would be so excited and grateful for the opportunity to meet you and your pet 🐶🐱. I work from home remotely a lot and am able to take full care of your pets on the weekends and most weekdays. It is a hobby/job for me because I love animals so much! I treat everyone’s pets like my own. Growing up, I had cats, dogs, horses, and every animal you could think of. I would love to have an animal now of my own, but I travel often!
“Diane was super flexible, responsive, and willing to go the extra mile by dealing with our RV park (fiesta key RV) security guards. In all the picture of our dog she sent he has a big ole smile!”
About: Friends and family have relied on me to be their pet sitter for the past ten years. I work a full time job as well as a student. Extremely flexible work schedule and I live a quiet laidback lifestyle. My weekends and Friday nights are always free. I love filling my free time with physical activities so walks are great to me! Safety is my top priority, which is why I never leave pets unsupervised while outdoors, even in a fenced in yard. On walks, I am hyper vigilant about my surroundings
About: Recently moved back to Islamorada. 6 years I used to work as a Kennel Attendant, and Groomer's Assistant. Supervising and cleaning up after dogs big and small, While I know the job can sometimes be challenging, I also know how rewarding it can be. I walk daily on my own so exercise and being active would be no problem to incorporate, I have experience working with even the biggest of dogs and letting them know who's Alpha. I am sensitive to dogs needs regarding hot pavement, and would work to do my best to keep them in shaded or softer areas for walking. Since I worked as an attendant and bather, a simple bath and brush would be easy to arrange if shampoo and towels are available and your pet feels safe having a stranger do it. I would love being able to provide that little extra to make your dog feel like a personal client and special friend. I work a rather unpredictable schedule, but often have off weekends, where I'm home almost the entirety of the day if you check with me I can best let you know if I can host your pup. I care for a very very nice dog named Finley who would love a friend to hang out with, we have an outdoor porch and a big grassy yard, and I stay close by, playing with toys between chores or cuddling while watching a movie. There are also parks around if you feel comfortable having your pup come with me on a longer walk or to socialize with others. I am looking for more even tempered dogs to host but good playful energy is welcomed if they get along with others.
“Erin was great with my rabbit. It was a bit of a curve ball I threw but she was willing to take it on and was so helpful. She sent picture updates and gave him everything he needed.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 30 years. I have great references. I pride myself on providing high quality care for your furry family members. I am a writer and a massage therapist. My schedule varies and I have plenty of free time to walk and exercise your dog or play with and provide company for your cat. As a licensed massage therapist for 22 years, I am also certified in companion animal massage and reiki, so I am here to help if your pet needs any healing work for pain relief or anxiety. I will always put your animal’s safety and comfort first in all situations. I am experienced in special needs diets and medical care for dogs and cats.
“Abigail was perfect. Communicated really well, was right on time and sent some great pictures. Highly recommended, and we will definitely be scheduling with her again!”
About: Hello! Are you looking for an experienced pet sitter/ walker? well I’m that person! I’ve work with a variety of different animals, in ERs, surgery, internal medicine and in zoos and aquariums as a licensed vet tech. I am the friend everyone calls when they need animal advise or help. I would love to be able to care for your pets as well. Sorry I don’t book more than 2 months ahead of time. Let me know if you need a last minute walk or pet sit and I’d be happy to see if I can help. I currently have a flexible schedule but do work shifts that are 6-8 hours long. I do not provide constant care, I will only be able to care for dogs that can be left alone for at least 6 hours. Let’s chat and figure out what you need and how I can help you and your pets! I can not currently watch dogs in my own home but am able to come stay with them in yours. I can stay overnight and be there for them or come for long visits throughout the day which is better for you and them.
About: Friends always come to me to watch their beloved fur baby's. They know how much I'll love them like they're my own. I know how I want my precious Astro to be treated if I'm away and I'll live up to those high standards with your precious ones. I've recently relocated to Islamorada from Los Angeles with my dog Astro. He is a gentle soul, very playful, very well behaved and loves other animals. I am looking to care for animals full time. I wake up early and can spend the days exercising and playing. Smaller dogs can be in my home. Larger dogs will be cared for your in your home as I am not in a home with a fence yet.
About: Hey there! My name’s Kyle, and I’m a nursing student living here in Key Largo. I own a property with multiple units and a fenced yard/backyard. I own a small, male Shiba Inu! In general, I’ve owned and taken care of dogs since I was 10! (So just a little over 18 years as of 2025) I love dogs and haven’t gone very long without a canine companion in my life. That being said, I have plenty of first-hand experience with many dogs from volunteering, my personal life, and from informing myself whenever available. I’m very flexible and will make sure all of your and your pet pals’ needs are met. I am currently working DoorDash on the side, so I will be in/out of the house but have the ability to immediately return at a moments notice and will never be too far from the home. I am already taking care of my own dog for walks, potty breaks, etc, so most pets will be following the same routine unless requested otherwise or are young and need constant supervision. My home is large enough to care for dogs of all sizes, including a property with a fenced in yard and backyard, as well as a puppy-proof room available to house young kittens and puppies.
“We took a last minute day trip & was in need of someone to help with our pups. Caitlin was an absolute treasure! She came in the morning to meet our babies & came back to let them out and feed them! We are so grateful. Thank you so much, Caitlin!”
About: I have lived with and cared for animals for as long as I can remember! I walk, bathe, feed, and play with my own family's dogs all the time; And, I have several extended family members, friends, and neighbors who have been able to count on me for dog walks, dog and/or cat sitting drop-ins, as well as overnight stays when they are away from their pets. I am hoping to work with animals in the future and am even vegan for animal rights. I assure you that you're fur baby will be in good hands with me :) *I have experience with puppies, middle-aged, and elderly doggies! I am currently home from college, for summer. Other than a few scheduled vacations on my end, I am available any day of the week or weekend, any time of day! I am available to feed, walk, play with, and just hang out with your pet. If there are any other specific services you may need or have questions about, feel free to reach out to me!
About: I’ve lived with animals my entire life. Even when I moved away from home for college I would fill my free time with fostering dogs and cats. I have some prior experience providing basic training to dogs and I have experience administering multiple types of medication. I’m currently working full time but will be transitioning into my PhD in the fall. Currently, I cannot house anyone in my home but I am free for very early morning and late afternoon walks and check ins! I care for your pets as if they were my pets. I can adapt to needs and am happy to give as much enrichment, love, and attention as you and your pet desire!
About: I grew up on a farm for 20 years and worked as a vet assistant for 10 years. Very experienced around all animals and not afraid to take on big, energetic or challenging pets. I’m a very nice, calm person that I almost guarantee your pet will love. I have a flexible job and can check on your pet as many times as you need. I have no problem trusting your pet in my place so they can hangout all day and I will check on them all day and be with them all night. I live in a big house with a big yard outside so I’m certain your pet will enjoy a day at my place. We also have a pool we can swim in if they are allowed
“Elizabeth is great! She has great communication and will send you beautiful pictures of your pet. She went out of her way and picked up some packages that had been delivered and placed them inside the house. Your pets are in good hands with Elizabeth.”
About: I have cared for my own and others’ pets for over 35 years—large and small dogs, different kinds of cats, birds, hamsters, bearded dragons, even fish. I have the most experience with dogs – I’ve loved and owned dogs since I was a young girl. Most recently I volunteered with and fostered dogs (& one kitten) for Detroit Dog Rescue for 8 years, which only stopped because I moved away. I have fostered and trained puppies, young to mid-age rescues, and also adjusted as my dog became a senior. I can walk your dog, have play time in a yard or a park, just have some chill time, and I can incorporate some enrichment to get them thinking and busy if you would like. I am also an expert at administering medicine with dogs and don’t mind doing this. I am also trained in Fear Free® pet care which focuses on behavior and body language with strategies to lower stress and anxiety in pets. I have vast experience with fearful and reactive dogs, owning one and fostering a few myself. My approach is patient and never pushy, letting the pet choose how they would like to interact, which could be none at all for some. I used Rover for many, many years for my pittie girl Penelope and understand the importance of clear communication, doing what the client wants, being on time, etc. I am excited to meet your pet and take care of them the way you would like. I am currently working part-time at a dive shop and have a bit of free time until we get busier. If I work, it can be any day of the week with weekends more busy than during the week. I can have a morning or afternoon shift or both. Mornings are 7am until noon and afternoons are 1115 to close to 4pm. I can travel directly to work to and from your home in the morning and afternoon. I can do drop-ins, longer stays, or overnights. I will make sure your pets are safe and secure in the yard when we are out there. I can easily crate them as well. I will do as you wish in your home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Islamorada on Rover is $30.53 per visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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, 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.
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.
