Can anyone recommend a land taxi service from Venice to Marco Polo airport? We are a family of 4, and I'm struggling to find a service that is reputable.

The only land taxis would leave from Piazzale Roma as there are no roads in Venice
Any official taxi would work and doesn’t need to be booked in advance
Here are your options for getting to the airport

There is a taxi stand in Piazalle Roma where the official white taxis line and wait for fares. Piazalle Roma is busy and can be a confusing place but if you come over Ponte della Costituzione or from the vaporetto stop bear left and ignore the bus circle in front of you and you'll see the orange taxi stand and a line of taxis waiting or people waiting for taxis.
Just get in line and trust the system as these taxis cycle back and forth from the airport bridging that gaps for people coming in and going out. There is also a bus option but with 4 people the taxi is probably cheaper and more straightforward.
Taxi drivers prefer cash but are obligated to accept cards as well.
Enjoy Venice,
