Top rated Akupu cat sitters

“Arianna was fantastic in her responsiveness and communication both in initially setting up our drop-in visits and throughout our time away. She was flexible and dependable. We will definitely use her services again. Highly recommend!”


“This was my first time using Rover and leaving my fur baby alone, which I was really anxious about especially during the holidays. Throughout this process, Steven was responsive, reliable, and very caring for my cat Simba sending me updates when he visited. I really appreciate all of his help and reassurance while I was gone allowing me to enjoy my trip. I highly recommend Steven and will definitely book with him again. Mahalo!”


“McKenzie was incredible! She took genuine interest during our meet & greet and did an amazing job with our high-energy golden retriever during the first drop-in. We will regularly be requesting McKenzie's services. I would 10/10 recommend her to my friends and family!”


“Our Mittens was a bit shy during our time with Avery. Even so, Ms Avery was kind enough to send us beautiful picture of herself and her husband. Mittens came out to play one day and looked happy and comfortable with Avery. It didn’t sound like there were any issues at all so that’s great! Thank you Avery and Mr Avery!”


“This is the second time that I've booked Amber and she's been great both times with my two fur babies that she's never seen, lol. My babies are so afraid of strangers that they never come out. They were well taken care of. Amber went above and beyond for me and my household. Will definitely book her again and recommend her to everyone 😚”


“Annika did a great job! I came home to happy healthy fur babies. We through her for a bit of a loop as one of dogs was sick right before we left and needed medication and another is a picky eater who likes to give new sitters a tough time. She did great through it all!”


“Alyssa has been nothing short of excellent. Her attentiveness to care, training, and friendliness stand out and you can tell she goes that one step above for the services she provides! If you’re nervous about looking for a sitter, she’s the one to pick! 10/10 for Mrs. Alyssa!”


“Fantastic communication and provided so much love and enjoyment for our kitty. It was a pleasure watching our cat warm up to Karina and it was awesome to know she was well taken care of while we were gone. Highly recommended.”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years—everything from sweet, laid-back couch potatoes to high-energy chaos gremlins (and I say that lovingly). I used to think I had it all figured out… until I met my current family dog, who’s got a little extra spice in his personality. He’s taught me a lot—about patience, behavior, body language, and how to earn a dog’s trust when it doesn’t come easy. Because of him, I’ve gained real experience working with reactive and aggressive dogs, and I know how to keep things calm, safe, and positive for everyone involved. Whether your dog is a cuddle monster, a shy introvert, or a little rough around the edges, I’m here to meet them where they’re at—with kindness, confidence, and a few treats in my pocket. Let’s make your pup’s day awesome! 🐶✨ ⸻ Let me know if you want to mention any specific training methods or certifications too! I work part-time, which means I have plenty of availability to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. Whether your pup needs midday walks, drop-in visits, or flexible sitting hours, I’m happy to work with your schedule to find the perfect fit. Your pet’s routine is important, and I’ll do my best to stick to it so they feel safe, happy, and right at home—even when you’re away. I’m super adaptable when it comes to caring for pets in their own environment. Whether your home is calm and quiet or full of energy and activity, I’ll respect your space and follow any house rules you have in place. I know every home—and every pet—is different, so I’m happy to adjust to your routine, preferences, and setup to make sure your furry friend feels comfortable and cared for. Just let me know what works best for you, and I’ll take it from there!

About: Hi, I’m Katie! I’m a full-time teacher and part-time pet whisperer 🐾 I have two spoiled cats (Tubby and Gnocchi), and I absolutely adore animals of all kinds. Whether your pet needs a buddy while you’re at work, a trustworthy sitter while you travel, or just someone to pop in and give belly rubs, I’m your girl! I’m reliable, experienced, and know how to keep pets safe, calm, and happy. I can administer medication, send photo updates, and follow detailed routines (teacher life = master of structure 😅). Located in Ewa Beach but happy to travel nearby. Let’s chat and see if I’m a good match for your fur baby! 💕 Weekends + weekdays late afternoons/evenings I’m a full-time teacher, so I’m available: • Weekdays after 3:30 PM • Evenings for drop-ins or overnight stays • Most weekends—flexible hours! I treat every pet like my own—with love, patience, and close attention to their routine. Whether it’s a cat, dog, bunny, or bearded dragon, I do my best to make them feel safe, calm, and cared for. When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I stick closely to your instructions and routines—feeding, water, walks or playtime, litter or potty cleanup, and making sure everything is secure before I leave. I always double-check doors, gates, and anything that could pose a risk. I send daily updates and cute photos so you’re never left wondering how things are going. As a full-time teacher and lifelong animal lover, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone—and I take that responsibility seriously 💕

About: Hello, my name is Rebecca. I have over 10 years experience pet sitting for friends and family and have had pets since I was nine. I love walking dogs and am happy taking care of senior and special needs animals! I am also comfortable taking care of cats, birds, and fish! I love making new pet buddies, and want to ensure they are as happy as can be. I am patient and experienced in how to interact with pets that may be a bit timid, or shy with new individuals. Pets are great companions and I look forward to meeting many new buddies! The safety of your pets will be my highest priority! Looking forward to meeting you! I have a flexible schedule and will be able to care for your pet as much as is required or preferred! I have lots of energy and availability. I have a fenced in yard, one dog and one cat. As long as your pet is friendly with others and is crate trained, having them stay in our home will be a treat!

“Moana was very content when we arrived home last night. I was so glad the photos Bridget sent us and Moana looked like two connected together 😃🤙🏻 When we planned another trip we will definitely contact Bridget to watch Moana 😃🤙🏻”


“Love Stephanie! Very reliable and treated my kitty like her own. Very in depth reviews and photos so I never have to worry while I’m away. Could not recommend more, no one else I would trust!”


“We needed some drop in visits for our 2 dogs after a recent surgery and I reached out to Marissa after reading her profile and reviews. She responded quickly and was ok with talking to me before booking as well. We had a quick call and I felt confident that she was the right person for my dogs. All visits went smoothly and Marissa handled my one leash reactive and super strong pup like a champ and gave my almost 15yr old the time she needed. If you are looking for someone to not only care for your dogs like she cares for her own, but listens and cares for them the way you want them cared for, look no further. My dogs LOOOOVE Marissa. Circle wags and smiles at each visit. 10/10 recommend.”


“Yasmeen did an excellent job with my cat while I was away. She kept me well informed of how she was doing with pictures, and updates everyday. She even accepted a booking for an extra day, when I realized I had misbooked my dates. I will definitely try to use her for future needs.”

Isabell D.
“We first met Isabell years ago when she was still in high school, volunteering at a local no-kill shelter here in Los Angeles. Even then, it was clear how passionate and dedicated she was when it came to caring for animals. So when we needed someone we could trust with our dogs, she was the first person we thought of-and she exceeded every expectation. While she lived in L.A, Isabell helped us with everything from overnight sitting to drop-in visits and daily walks. Our dogs absolutely adored her, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such kind, capable hands. She's incredibly reliable, always kept us updated, and treated our pups like her own. We truly miss having her here, but we're so grateful for all the love and care she gave our dogs over the years. Anyone who has the chance to work with her now is incredibly lucky!”

Rebecca D.
“Rebecca helped us while she was visiting Ecuador. She took care of my 10 years old French Poodle for over 2 weeks. She made sure Lisy had enough water. She fed her just the right amount and took her out for walks plenty of times a day! 100% recommended.”

Lawrence & Janice M.

“Lawrence was so helpful taking my girl out for a break. Felt very comfortable she was in good hands.”


Mackie W.
“I have known Mackie her whole life and have watched her develop relationships with at least 10 different kinds of animals. I fondly call her the "dog whisperer" because she has always been able to somehow create strong trust connections that allow her to train dogs even without any formal training on her part. I always thought she would become a veterinarian! Even though she's on a different career path, she loves animals and strongly desires their presence in her life. At any time, our family had up to five different species of pets based largely on her requests (she is persistent!). I would trust her with even my most frail furry friend. She is gentle, loving, and confident.”
