“Our mini schnauzer had a great time with Patricia. We could tell she was loved and enjoyed her visits while we were exploring the Everglades and Biscayne National Parks.

“Jessica was an amazing dog sitter for my dog Toby 🐶🦴. From the start, she was super friendly, reliable, and clearly loves animals. Toby can sometimes be a little shy around new people, but he warmed up to her right away, which says a lot. She kept me updated while I was away and made sure Toby got plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. When I came back, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. I’d absolutely recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Toby and I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
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!
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 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
“Kristin was increíble. She was so beyond lovely to me and specially to Remi. I thank you so much for taking care of him. I would pick Kristin over anyone to take care of my little baby. ?”
About: Cats, dogs and other critters are all great. I'm open to learning about your pet's needs and their special qualities. I live in a central location in Key Largo so it's easy for me to get around. My schedule is open any time of the week. Just let me know and I will work with you. I've worked hard my whole life. I'm familiar with the Upper Keys and have friends throughout various neighborhoods so I'm happy to come to you for your pet's needs. I have a reliable vehicle.
About: I have been pet sitting for years! I previously worked as a dog groomer, but retired and moved on to human hair! I have experience working as a pet sitter at Zoomies Pet Villas in Key Largo. I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities—from tiny teacup pups to large, lovable giants. Whether your dog is full of playful energy or prefers a slower pace, I tailor my care to meet their unique needs. I’m also experienced with administering medications, including oral and topical treatments, so you can feel confident your pet is in safe hands. I treat every dog like they’re my own, with plenty of love, attention, and belly rubs! I work as a cosmetologist in the FL Keys with a very flexible schedule! I am able to tailor to you and your pets schedule and needs😊 I live on a quiet, dead end street in Key Largo. I have a fully fenced in backyard on the water. There is a sandy area to dig, and plenty of room to lounge in the sun!
About: I just like to spend time and show love to all the fur friends out there. Sure thing, bud, I’ll pat you on the head. I’m out here walking, might as well bring some friends along. Let’s go for a nice ol’ stroll, buddy. Smell the outdoors. Take in the breeze. We’re running around until we’re tired. Then we go for some snacks. Then we’re falling asleep on the floor and do it all over again when we wake up.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Tavernier
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Tavernier on Rover is $29.96 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 .
As of June 2026, there are 104 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Tavernier. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Tavernier 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 104 sitters in Tavernier, 97% 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.
