“We had four young golden retrievers in our daughter’s wedding. Kyle did a fantastic job helping us watch them during the wedding and taking care of them for the night during the reception. We will definitely book again when returning to Key Largo, Thank you for keeping our babies happy and safe Kyle!”

“Lauren took such good care of our two dogs and bird! She really went above and beyond to make sure that everyone was taken care of and happy. We got lots of pictures and updates and it made our weekend so much better knowing that we didn't need to worry about our puppies.”

About: I had the good fortune to retire early at 53. Recently moved permanently to Key Largo. I have the time to properly care for your fur baby in your home or do walks or drop in visits. I’m not doing this to make a living. I’m available because I love dogs. I treat them like they are my children. I’m extremely honest, dependable and trustworthy. I like to teach each dog something as I interact with them. I enjoy training and highly encourage play and exercise. I’ve had dogs all my life. Many different sizes and breeds. I promised to love, protect and care for every one from the first day to the last. I will do the same for your furry friend every time I care for them. I can watch any kind of dog, young, old, energetic or chill. I’m retired and my girlfriend works from home. We have the time to watch your fur baby every day without distractions. Can provide care during weekdays or weekends. We keep our puppy inside our house. Will do the same with your pup. We exercise her on walks around the neighborhood and runs in the back yard. We can exercise your pup on or off leash depending on your preference.
About: I have been taking care of many different animals since I was around 10 years old. I have graduated college, and have been working aboard and would like to make some extra money while I’m back in the states. I have watched and walked most dog breeds and ages anywhere from puppies to older dogs. I am good with sick dogs or cats. And a fast learner if I run into a new situation. I’ve been working in the pacific for the past 2 years. I am back home to take some time off but would still like to make a little bit of money. Schedule is pretty flexible. My apt unfortunately does not allow pets. But I have a reliable car and am able to travel to yours for walks or pet setting!
About: Hi! My name is Albert Hernandez! I'd be taking your furry friend for multiple walks a day and feeding them according to the schedule you give me. I've had dogs my entire life, and I even grew up on a farm! (we had six dogs!) I love dogs and really appreciate having them as company. I'm currently a full time student, with all of my classes being online, so I have plenty of time to take special care of your family friend. It is a pleasure to be able to take care of your fur babies and making sure they truly enjoy their stay away from home. From years of experience my girlfriend and I know how to make sure your pup feels at home.
About: My wife and I provide a special service, we care for your beloved little friend with love, dedication and total security, we are attentive to his needs full-time, we have extensive experience with all types of dogs, large, small, restless, strong, even those that are somewhat aggressive, we care for them and attend to their special needs. My wife and I are available full-time, 7 days a week, to care for your beloved little friend, and if you need it, we can pick him up immediately upon your request. We have a fenced yard where your little friend can do his business freely, we also have rooms specially prepared so they can rest or be quiet and away from other dogs if their owners wish, or if they need to feel safe in a cage, We also walk them through parks and fenced play areas especially for dogs, so they can run freely and release all that accumulated energy.

About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for animals. Throughout my pet-sitting journey, I’ve had the pleasure of caring not only for furry four-legged friends, but also barn animals, reptiles, rodents, and aquatic pets. I am a reliable, communicative, loving, and attentive sitter who provides not just the experience your pet needs, but also the love, care, and peace of mind every pet parent deserves. Pet sitting is my full-time profession, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care and flexible scheduling. I intentionally limit the number of bookings I accept to ensure each pet receives my full attention, so early reservations are recommended. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions exactly as provided. I maintain a clean, secure environment and closely monitor behavior to ensure comfort and well-being. I provide regular updates with photos and detailed communication so you feel confident and informed while you’re away.
About: Hi, I’m Mari! Animals have been part of my family my whole life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve had three Dalmatians, a Dachshund–Chihuahua mix, and a Pomeranian, so I know how different every dog’s personality can be! I’m currently a proud dog mom to Eve, my sweet Dalmatian. 🤎 I have volunteer experience with the Humane Society of Greater Miami and have rescued both cats and dogs. I’ve also boarded dogs in my home and provided house sitting in their own homes. These experiences have taught me to be patient, pay attention to each pet’s needs, and give them time to feel comfortable with me. Now, I’m building my own pet sitting business, Mari and Eve Pet Care, around something I truly love. Whether your pet enjoys playing, going on walks, or simply having someone nearby, I want them to feel loved and cared for while you’re away. As a pet parent myself, I know how much it means to find someone you feel comfortable trusting with your baby! 💕 During their stay or visit: I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, favorite activities, and little quirks. Care can include walks, playtime, meals, potty breaks, and quiet time, depending on their needs and the service booked. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can see how your baby is doing! 📸🐾 For house sitting, I’ll follow your care instructions and respect your home while keeping your pet comfortable in their familiar surroundings. What I’d love to know about your pet: Tell me a little about your baby! What do they love, what makes them nervous, and what helps them feel comfortable? Please share their feeding and potty schedule, sleeping habits, allergies, medical needs, and any behaviors I should know about. For care in my home, I’d also like to know how they feel around other dogs, since I have Eve. Let me know if this is their first time staying with a sitter so we can talk through what would help them settle in. For boarding, please bring their usual food and any familiar items, like a favorite toy, bed, or blanket. I’d love to arrange a meet and greet so we can get to know each other before their stay! 💕 Open availability Mon-Sun. I will walk, feed, play and bathe your pet as needed. And love them and take care of them like I do with my dog, Eve. ☺️ I will make sure with the owners to meet their pets’ dietary needs and buy them the necessary food to meet those needs. If they are a dog, I will walk them according to their walking needs. I will also have new toys for them to play with. If they are a cat, I will have carpet pieces for them to climb and toys as well. If the pet needs a bath or to be taken to a vet/training/playdate appointment I can do that as well. ☺️

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m reliable, organized, and attentive to pets’ routines and comfort levels. I enjoy spending time with animals, going on walks, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, giving medications if instructed, and providing updates/photos for peace of mind. I just graduated college and am waiting for my internship to start, so I am completely free and open for work at this time. I’m available for weekdays, weekends, walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I can provide dependable care and quick communication. I understand that every pet has different routines, personalities, and comfort levels, so I always try to create a calm, safe, and positive environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking instructions, medication directions, and any special requests from owners. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and will provide updates and photos so owners feel comfortable and informed while they’re away. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care during visits.
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by them—from dogs and cats to rabbits, turtles, birds, ducks, chickens, goats and cows, along with a very beloved ferret who still holds a special place in my heart. That lifelong experience has made me comfortable around animals with all kinds of personalities, routines and needs. I've learned that every pet is different: some want to be right by your side, some need time to warm up, some have endless energy, and others are happiest simply knowing you're nearby. Today, I'm a proud cat mom to three, and my love for animals is a huge part of why I'm here. I know how much trust it takes to leave a beloved pet in someone else's care, and I want every owner to feel confident knowing their pet is being looked after with genuine affection, patience and attention. Whether I'm caring for your pet for a few hours or while you're away, my goal is simple: to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved and as close to their normal routine as possible. I'll care for them with the same thoughtfulness I'd want someone to give my own. ❤️ I currently have availability during evenings, nights, and weekends, allowing me to provide attentive care. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual schedule and routines so their experience feels familiar, comfortable, and well cared for. Since I provide care in my clients’ homes, my priority is making sure your pet feels comfortable in the environment they already know. I’m patient and attentive, and I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, routine, boundaries, and any special instructions you have for their care. I’m also very respectful of the homes I’m trusted with. I’m naturally extremely tidy (admittedly, a bit of a neat freak!), so I’ll keep your pet’s spaces clean, tidy up as needed, and treat your home with the same care and consideration I would my own. My goal is for you to return to a happy, well-cared-for pet and a home that feels just as you left it—if not a little tidier. :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Key Largo is $75 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $59 and $95 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 282 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Key Largo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Key Largo 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 Key Largo 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.
Tip: 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 Key Largo 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.

- 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.
