Cat Sitting in Ahuimanu

About: I’m a reliable and experienced pet sitter with over 10 years of hands-on care for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, fish, and multi-pet households. I’ve completed stays ranging from a few days to over two weeks, and I’m comfortable managing multiple pets at once while keeping each one safe, happy, and on routine. What sets me apart is my experience across all life stages—from energetic puppies who need structure and patience to senior pets who require gentle care, attentiveness, and consistency. Having cared for my own senior dog as well as others, I understand the extra level of compassion and awareness older pets need. I prioritize clear communication, reliability, and treating every pet like they’re my own. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM, but I’m available for pet care in the evenings and fully open on weekends. I build pet visits into my daily routine after work and dedicate my weekends to providing attentive, flexible care. I provide attentive, reliable care in your pet’s familiar environment, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and routine at all times. I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly how you left it while maintaining clear communication and updates you can trust. My goal is to create a calm, stress-free experience where both you and your pets feel completely at ease.

“Keala was amazing. Very attentive and communicative. Appreciated the questions she asked in prep of caring for my cats - Sophia and Rain - and all the care and feedback she gave while I was away. Made the trip so much enjoyable knowing they were being well cared for. Thank you.”

“Kalyn was absolutely wonderful with my high energy, anxious dog! Communication was great, she was timely with her check-ins and sent many pictures so I could tell Cleo was a happy camper! She even offered to get her out of the house and took her to her son’s baseball game, which was greatly appreciated and above and beyond! I would not hesitate to use Kalyn again!”

“Julie and Peter were wonderful to work with. Peter did drop-in visits for my senior kitty while we were traveling. His check in’s gave us such peace of mind and our kitty was happy to get the attention and interaction. Both Julie and Peter are professional, responsible, and very communicative! We hope to book them for future services :)”

About: As a devoted dog lover and experienced pet sitter, I've cared for a variety of dogs since the age of 10. I've walked, fed, and provided medication for family and friends' pets, and I'm skilled at handling multiple dogs at once. Your fur baby will receive exceptional care and love when they're with me. I work a full-time from 9am-5pm Monday through Friday from home. I take early morning walks, lunch walks, or after-work walks. I’m happy to work with you to get your pet care and exercise week nights to weekends. I am highly organized and always make sure to read detailed care instructions. I can crate your dog, share mid-walk photos, and send care updates.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs ever since I was born. Presently, I have my own 5.5 year old kitty named Leia who I adore and my cattle dog, Rocky. Used to volunteer with LA County Animal shelters where I would feed, walk dogs, and play with them! I work remotely until early afternoon M-Fri and have a flexible schedule! I have a 1.5 year old cattle dog and 5.5 year old kitty of my own which I am always taking on adventures around the island! I will only be doing drop in services at this time! I’ll be sure to share lots of pics of your furry friends during the drop ins and/or walks!

About: Hello! I am looking to spend time with your furry family member! I have grown up with pets my whole life, so I understand the time and commitment it takes to love and care for them. I have experience walking dogs big and small so that I can take your pup for a short walk or long adventure. Looking forward to meeting you and helping out with all of your pet sitting needs. I currently work a hybrid 9-6 job. I am most free in the early mornings and certain days over the lunch hour or early afternoon. I am comfortable watching your pet indoors or outdoors, at the beach or at the park. I am very careful and good at following any special instructions or directions.

About: I've had pets my whole life growing up. I’ve cared for dogs and cats in home settings, following detailed routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I’m comfortable with pets of different personalities—from energetic, playful dogs to shy or anxious pets who need patience and reassurance. I’m very safety-conscious and always double-check leashes, doors, and gates. I pay close attention to behavior and health, and I communicate clearly with owners if anything seems out of the ordinary. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away—like you never left. I currently have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to accommodate early mornings, mid-day visits, evenings, and weekends. This allows me to work around your pet’s routine rather than fitting them into a rigid schedule. Whether your pet needs consistent check-ins, longer walks, or extra attention during the day, I’m happy to tailor care to what works best for you and your pet. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are my top priorities during every walk and drop-in visit. I’m careful to double-check leashes, doors, and gates, and I stay aware of surroundings to keep your pet safe at all times. I treat your home with respect, follow your instructions closely, and provide reliable, consistent care. During visits, I focus on creating a positive, comfortable environment—whether that’s a good walk, feeding time, potty breaks, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. I’m happy to follow any specific routines, preferences, or safety instructions you have for your pet.

About: As a professional hypnotherapist specializing in emotional trauma, I bring a calm, empathetic presence to pet care. Combined with my nannying background and experience raising three dogs from puppy (2 Bullterriers & 1 Staffordshire mix) and currently caring for my recently adopted 1.5 year old female doberman, I create a balanced environment perfect for soothing anxious pets, and caring for dogs of all ages I am currently building my business and have plenty of flexible home office time, so there is lots of time and opportunity to go for walks and play time. Our home is roomy & secure and I can fit a small to medium crate if needed. We have lots of walkways and I love to go take dog for beach walks or easy hikes when I can

About: I got my first dog when I was 4 and started dog sitting for neighbors when I was 8. I worked with a group when I lived in Kansas City that did short term in-home dog fostering for 1 day to two weeks. My puppy experience comes from a few of my friends having puppies, but adult dogs are my favorite. I work full time from home, and can schedule walks in between meetings during the day. If the dog(s) are up for it I would love to take them hiking, SUPing, kayaking, to the beach, and to hang out with my friend's dogs. I prefer to keep the dog on a similar schedule to what they are used to and not overwhelm them with new experiences while their owners are gone. Please provide me with the needed information of your dog's routine.

“Jacquelyn D was very good with our two fur babies. Seems they got along with her very well. She did everything we asked her to do. We recommend her for watching our pups at our home.”

About: I have always been an animal lover but am waiting for the right time to get a dog of my own. Through my busy schedule, I have always made time to volunteer at local animal shelters to provide time walking dogs, shelter care as well as foster care. I would be honored to provide your furry friend all the love and care every dogs deserves. I enjoy staying busy and am willing to be very flexible. I love all pups, no matter the breed, shape or size. Willing to provide leisurely walks or a quick run, whatever is needed. Will do anything necessary to provide a safe and happy experience for your pooch. I can provide care for any medical, physical, behavioral or dietary needs. Stay well and thank you for your consideration!!!

“She did an amazing job! I appreciate her report cards and she did an awesome job at taking pictures of their activities. She was very professional and just the dog sitter/walker my dog needed! Will definitely rebook her!”

About: Hi! My name is Samm. I am a current dog owner of two; Charlotte, a 3.5 yr old, spayed, Am. Staff. Terrier who acts like a princess & Kai, a 2 yr old, neutered, GSP who is a busy bee. Talk about polar opposites! I love a healthy balance and what I have learned in my 18+ years of animal care is, just like people, pets have their own personalities and needs. Knowing your audience is key and I treat every animal with that approach. The more you tell me, the more I know how to implement a healthy setting and approach for your pet. I have had family pets (dogs, cats, rodents, fish, & equine) in the home since I was 6, personally starting to care for them around age 10- taking on full responsibility of a horse at the age of 15 and was also partially financially responsible for the same horse to understand the whole realm of that responsibility, becoming fully financially responsible for my first dog, a 135lb Mastiff, at the age of 17. I have fostered 43 puppies, 3 adult dogs, and 1 kitten since 2020 as I was working as an Adoption Manager for a Non-profit shelter based out of Chicago from 2020 - 2021, I now am still in the business of animals and am an Assistant Hospital Manager of a reputable Veterinary clinic here in Oahu with a flexible schedule. I have experience with handling mobility restriction, medication administration, behavior intervention, healthy play and social styles, and all things puppy training and management. I am in a place where animals bring joy. Also, since moving to a remote island, I have seen how difficult it is to find a boarder when needed without jumping through a trillion hoops (some warranted, but others, a bit excessive). I am also a military spouse and truly understand that things come up, so not only do I have access to military bases, but reply swiftly to last minute requests - I GET IT! I am truly hoping to help you out while bringing in an additional source of income for my knowledge and desire to help others. I do want to preface this blurb with yes, I do work full-time (work day is 8 hours) however, I have flexibility within my work schedule. I live (depending on traffic) a 10-14 minute drive from home and choose my schedule. When caring for your pet, depending on service, I treat your pets, like mine. We have a schedule: morning, midday, afternoon, evening. If I am boarding your pet in my home, after discussing your routine for your pet, I will either implement your pet into the routine of my two dogs during my work day, coming home during my hour lunch to spend quality time or get in an additional walk or run on our dog treadmill. OR I have the ability to bring your pet with me to the hospital to our boarding space where your pet will be personally visited by me every 2 hours for quality time, reassurance, and potty breaks until my work day is done. We can talk more specifics depending on your pet and the following; separation anxiety, their energy level, medication requirements, mobility requirements, animal aggressions et cetera. All of this information is vital in order to determine the level of service I can provide for each day and how that would look in order for you to feel comfortable. As a pet owner, knowing the person caring for my pet has their best interest in mind and action, is vital for me to feel at ease. For that consideration I am even willing to pay a premium price because it matters to me. I want you to feel at ease knowing that I want to discuss with you the characteristics of your pet and your training & care style so I may implement the same all the while providing other areas of mental and physical stimulation to help your pet through a season of change with me as their "new-intermittent" care giver alongside the potential of your pet being in a new environment if boarding at my home. If choosing to board your pup in my home/ coming for daycare for play and stimulation (either all at the house OR a combination of at the house and at the boarding facility within my hospital), your pet will be with two other neutral dog friends with an outdoor, secure fenced in space in a neighborhood, with an outdoor (actual) dog house with ceiling fan + beds, access to clean water, an outdoor doggy pool, and all of the lizards to chase! If it's too hot, all dogs will simply be in our home hanging out in the A/C until the day is done with appropriate potty breaks depending on the dogs age and need. For walks, I am to the T when it considers your dogs time and attention for our agreed upon walk routine.
