About: Dogs are the best! I’ve raised a lab, a pit bull and even a mix from puppies. My childhood dogs were a lab and cockapoo so I’m used to large and medium dogs. It’s a joy to care for dogs in their home where they feel familiar and loved. Funny fact … I’ve been peed on twice at a dog park, once by a Great Dane! 🤣 I used gentle training methods (and lots of cheerios) with my puppies. With our previous dog, we took the PetSmart training course with our lab mix and that was really helpful. I teach at the high school so early mornings, after school and evenings are open times. Dogs need play time and connection as well as their own little space. Whatever they’re feeding schedule is, I would stick to that so it feels as close to their home life as it can. I never feed human food (unless directed by you) and discourage begging from the table by keeping their food near the kitchen. Whatever your dog’s schedule is, I can accommodate it and they’ll be in the cuddle pile with me anytime they want. My dogs were always crate trained so I’m confident in helping a dog have their safe space if that’s their normal. Basically, think of this as granny’s coming to visit. I might spoil them. I won’t leave them all sugared up though! I’m in a classroom teaching high school when school is in. Holidays and weekends I am home and available with greater frequency. Early morning, early afternoon and evening walks would be my best times to take care of your pet. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow their rules. I’m an active person so long walks or playing ball, running the beach and a bath after are all part of the fun.

We will definitely book again when returning to Key Largo, Thank you for keeping our babies happy and safe Kyle!”

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.
“We are so happy to have found Berenice for our two babies. She accommodated us with only a few weeks notice for a 18 day stay. The house was in great condition and most of all, our dogs seemed to love Berenice. We got lots of videos and photos during our absence and they seemed very well loved. We will definitely contact her again!”

About: Hey parents, my name is Lin. What sets me apart is the genuine love and personal experience I bring to caring for dogs. I’ve raised my two chihuahuas since they were puppies—they’re truly family to me—so I understand how important it is to find someone who treats your pets like their own. I’ve created the most pet-friendly home environment, with a large fenced backyard that has grassy areas to run around, doggie pools to cool off in, and plenty of space to play and explore. Inside, the rooms are air-conditioned and cozy, so your pup will always be comfortable. I encourage socializing and active playtime, and I keep crate time to a minimum—usually zero—unless it’s part of your dog’s routine. I also have experience with both extrovert and introvert pets as well as puppies and senior dogs, so whether your pup is full of energy or needs a slower pace, they’ll be in safe, loving hands. Me and my fiancé are home full-time, so your pup will always have someone around giving them love and attention. I run my own online business, and she’s a full-time nursing student taking classes from home, which means we’re both here 24/7 to supervise, play, and care for the dogs throughout the day. Whether it’s potty breaks, cuddle sessions, or keeping up with their routine, we’ve got it covered. Your dog will never feel alone or ignored—they’ll be part of the family while they’re with us. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities. We’ve created a calm, welcoming, and secure environment where every pup can feel right at home and keeping you updated with pictures and videos throughout the day of their activities. Our large backyard is fully fenced for safe outdoor play, and we’re always supervising to make sure everyone is happy and safe—no dog is ever left unattended. Inside, the space is clean, cozy, air-conditioned, and monitored with cameras so we can always keep an eye on everything. We take the responsibility of caring for your pet seriously and treat every dog like they’re part of our own family. You can trust that your pup will be safe, loved, and well cared for every step of the way.
About: I will always make sure that your pets have all the attention and care that I can possibly give and all their needs covered. My house has always revolved around our pets because my mom is a dog lover and we have always had multiple pets at our home. I usually work approximately 20 hrs a week at Publix as a part time. My mom and her girlfriend work from home and they tok support my side hustle. Your pets will be in our home environment and not kenneled. My only other hobby now is the gym which ai get out of the way early mornings as well. I make sure that I give every pet their own space and watch as they find their space in a pack scenario (with other pets). I feed separate and give them all individual attention.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Tavernier
This was our first experience with Rover and it was a great one! Mackinzey provided pet-sitting services in our home for two weeks. Our Yorkshire Terrier mix (Annie) has only been with us for a few months and Mackinzey made sure Annie had all the love and companionship she needed while we were away. Mackinzey was so concientious of Annie and her schedule, and also of caring for our home. She provided wonderful, compassionate care and afforded us peace of mind in being away. We look forward to working with Mackinzey again in the future!

The average cost of House Sitting in Tavernier is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $68 per night.

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 Tavernier 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 Tavernier 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 Tavernier 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.

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.
