When we dropped our boy, Goose off for day care he took to Donna right away and didn’t even give a glance back at us haha. He had a great time! Donna was quick to reply to messages and we felt confident he was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up with a dog, then had a dog and 2 cats. My dog was rescue from an animal hoarder and very anxious, my 2 cats were both special needs (dog and one cat passed recently). I started dog sitting when I was 10 for 2 beautiful dogs in my neighborhood and have had many more along the way. I will be between jobs all of November and December with my primary work being picking up catering jobs, leaving me with tons of availability for pet care! I currently live with my parents and cat so I am unable to bring a dog home with me, but I do have a car and am able to to check on/ visit with/ stay with a dog any time.
“Maryna graciously helped us with Margo while we were in Key West for a day! She made sure our pup got lots of walking, which is appreciated for an active breed. She was communicative and kept us updated throughout the day.”
About: I’ve taken care of many pups from walks, rehab, and overnight stays. My husband and I have always had a dog throughout childhood and adulthood so have extensive experience. We will treat your little one as our own! My husband and I both work from home so we will spend all day with your pup and we frequently go on walks so they’ll be getting steps in! Since we work from home and take calls for work we are not able to accommodate vocal dogs (ex. Excessive barking, whining, etc.) please keep this in mind prior to booking. We live in a C class rv at Leo’s Campground where there is a dog park on site and we do have a fenced in patio so plenty of outside and play time for your pup(s) 😁
“Elsa was so great with Lola,my 3 month old puppy, took her to the park played and played with her made her a little bed to sleep on and have her chew toys on and sent me pics and videos through out the day. Will use her again.”
“Rejane is so loving and knowledgeable about animals. Our very young toy poodle had a great day with her. We felt like he was safe and loved on. She sent us cute photos and updates during the day. We 100% recommend her.”
“Belinda was an absolute pleasure to meet! Our puppy was so happy and well taken care of. We received updates as necessary, she was very easy to coordinate pick up and drop off with and genuinely cares about the well-being of dogs! She was very kind and gave our pup her undivided attention.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have always loved animals. I have been a dog sitter countless times over the years and have enjoyed every second. I took a break from Rover due to a knee injury and am excited to start taking care of some pups on Rover.com again. I enjoy going for walks and would love to have the company of a four-legged pal while you are out of town. I'm fine with dogs on couches but am happy to abide by any standards you have set for consistency purposes :) Send me a message if you'd like a loving, kind, responsible, and playful companion for your dog to keep him/her entertained while you are out of town. =) I work from home full time so have plenty of time for walks and chill time with your four-legged friend! I have a flexible schedule so can accommodate a variety of situations. I provide a similar, comfortable lifestyle for your pet(s) so they dont have to adjust much in your absence. I keep the schedule you typically provide and am more than happy to follow their routine.
About: Love all types of pets! Lots of space for play In good hands, safe space Elder/disabled pet experience with dogs and cats, able to give medicine Message for meet greet Rover is currently my full time gig which helps assure your pet will get the most attention and will be the main priority! This also gives more assurance that your booking won’t be canceled and your scheduled pick up/drop off will be on time. As for safety, trust, and environment, I live with no other pets, no kids, and always make sure nothing is ever left out for a pet to get into. I have taken care of elderly and disabled dogs who have scheduled medication, large dogs who need a lot of strength to be walked, and hyper active dogs that need a lot of exercise! I typically don’t take pets on drives for safety reasons but if you give me the okay I try to bring them to a park/trail that’s at a close distance if they are booked with me for more than a few days. I send daily updates and pictures while sitting and always aim for a quick response time. If you have any questions or want to schedule a meet & greet, feel free to message me!

“Lisette truly saved our vacation! We found ourselves in a tough spot when our sweet elderly dog became too anxious to stay alone in our rental. With almost no notice, Lisette stepped in with warmth and calm reassurance, welcoming our pup like family. She was patient, gentle, and incredibly attentive — sending us updates that let us relax and enjoy our trip knowing our girl was safe and loved. It’s rare to meet someone so caring and trustworthy at the last minute, but Lisette exceeded every expectation. We’re beyond grateful for her kindness and the peace of mind she gave us. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who genuinely loves and understands dogs!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Key West
This was my second time using Patricia and the dogs had such an amazing time. She was so quick at responding to my messages and keeping me updated. She was also super flexible with the drop off and pick up times, which was awesome. I will definitely be using her services again.
Belinda was very quick to respond to my last minute request to watch our beloved pup, Atlas so that we could explore Key West. Great communication from start to finish, with plenty of pictures throughout the day to ensure us that he was having a good time and was in good hands. We will reach out to her whenever we are in the area again!
Betsy is an outstanding and super friendly pet sitter. Our dog Philo has never been left with anyone but my wife or I and initially we were very nervous about leaving him with anyone else. Turned out to be a wonderful and extremely stress free outcome. Philo was immediately comfortable in his new surroundings and took to Betsy immediately. When we picked him up he was very relaxed and happy. Philo had made a true and genuine friendship with Betsy and for the first time we feel no hesitation in leaving him with Betsy in the future so we can do some things not suited for a dog. We feel blessed to have found Betsy, she treated our dog like he was her own. Don’t hesitate to contact Betsy or you’ll pass up a chance to have a great person take care of your family member! Our only concern now is he won’t want to go back home with us next time we pick him up from Betsy. Thanks Betsy!
Carli was wonderful to work with! She communicated well and offered to meet Wally before he stayed with her. She greeted Wally and made him feel comfortable, listened when we told her about him, and sent us pictures throughout his stay. We felt completely at ease leaving Wally with her and he was SO HAPPY and tired when we picked him up. We would highly recommend Carli!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Key West on Rover is $61.05 per day (as of June 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 Key West 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 29 sitters in Key West, 96% 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.
