Dog Walking Ala Moana-Kakaako

About: I have two years of experience taking care of small and large dogs. I provide patient and attentive care to each dog’s individual needs. I am also an experienced dog owner having owned two Labrador retrievers. I am currently available for drop ins and dog walking visits Monday - Friday. I am willing to see multiple pets on the same day. I am flexible and willing to work around each clients schedule. I will ensure safety when taking care of my client’s pets by following all instructions given to me and ensuring safety at all times. The dog will always remain leashed on walks and during and after walks each dog will be given water to cool down. I will provide photos of your dog during our walk/visit to keep clients updated on how their dog is doing and to help them feel relieved knowing their dog is being safely taken care of.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have two cats of my own, so caring for animals is second nature to me (for reference: my chore starting at age 5 was to feed the dogs 😁🐶). I’ve worked with breeds ranging from pit bulls to chihuahuas, and I’m especially comfortable with pets that need a little extra patience—whether that’s a high-energy dog or a “difficult” cat. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile. I’m comfortable administering medication to both cats and dogs, brushing teeth, and clipping nails. I’m also a runner and love taking active dogs on short to mid-length runs or long walks if that’s something they enjoy. Whether your pet needs exercise, enrichment, or calm, reliable companionship, I tailor my care to meet their unique needs and routine. I’m currently a law student, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Monday through Friday, I have one morning class and one afternoon class, but I’m available to check on your pets during lunch, as well as in the mornings and evenings. My weekends are completely open, and as long as you don’t mind me doing a bit of studying at times, I can spend the majority of the day with your furry family—making sure they get plenty of attention, care, and companionship. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I follow care instructions closely and take time to understand each pet’s personality, triggers, and preferences. In a client’s home, I respect the space and strive to keep everything as familiar and stress-free as possible for your pet. I’m attentive to things like secure doors and gates, leash safety on walks, and monitoring food, medications, and behavior changes. I never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations and always prioritize calm, positive interactions. I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

About: I provide dependable, loving care and make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while their owners are away. I am attentive to routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and keeping pets calm in new situations. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs, whether they are energetic, shy, or older and need a gentler approach. I am responsible, communicative, and focused on making sure pets get consistent care and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I am organized, dependable, and able to plan my day around a pet’s needs. I can make time for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins while keeping a consistent schedule. I understand how important routine is for pets, so I make it a priority to follow their normal habits as closely as possible to help them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I care for pets by creating a calm, clean, and secure environment and by following the owner’s instructions closely. In a client’s home, I respect their space, keep pets on their normal routine, and pay attention to details like feeding, walks, medications, and behavior changes. I focus on safety by monitoring doors, leashes, gates, and anything that could put a pet at risk. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable and owners feel confident that their pet is in good hands.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and intention I bring to each visit. I don’t rush through walks or treat them as routine tasks—I make sure your dog gets real engagement, structure, and positive interaction every time. Whether it’s a high-energy walk or a calm check-in, I adapt to what your pet needs that day so they come back happy, balanced, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to plan walks, drop-ins, and visits around the pet’s needs rather than forcing them into a rigid time slot. Since I’m already home throughout the day, I’m able to provide consistent availability, quick response times, and reliable scheduling for morning, midday, and evening care. I can also easily adjust my routine if a pet needs extra attention, a longer walk, or last-minute care. Overall, my flexibility lets me prioritize each pet’s routine and well-being while making sure owners can count on dependable, stress-free support. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain a calm, clean, and consistent environment while making sure pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they’re used to. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions provided so nothing is disrupted. During visits, I focus on creating a safe and positive experience—whether that means structured walks, playtime, potty breaks, or just calm companionship for pets who prefer a quieter presence. I also make sure to communicate updates so owners feel confident and informed while they’re away.

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and love them dearly! Your kitty will get ALL the pets & attention during their stay if you choose me to be your sitter. My own senior kitty passed away in December and my husband and I really miss having a pet at home. This is why we would LOVE to channel our love for cats into being an amazing cat sitter for you. I also now work part-time at the Hawaii Cat Cafe in Waikiki if you want to stop by and say hi! 🙂 Now accepting dog walking requests too! Although I can’t board your pup at my home I do offer walks throughout the day. I only work part-time so I have lots of spare time to spend with your kitty! I moved to Hawaii a few months ago and am taking time to relax & explore before jumping back into a full time gig. Me and my husband have a 2 bedroom apartment. Your cat will have full access to all rooms and furniture, except for the balcony which will stay closed for safety purposes.

“Courtney was easy to communicate with and made sure to pay attention to all the specific needs of my pup. I would both recommend her and book her again.”

Heather S.

“Many thanks for all you’ve done in the past couple of days to keep the routine going for the dogs. Appreciate the communication, responsiveness, and care while we were away. Anyone who books with Emily will be lucky to have her.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember, with experience ranging from energetic puppies to senior adult dogs. I genuinely love dogs and all animals, and I understand how important it is to know your pet is in caring, reliable hands. Whether you’re heading on vacation, out for dinner, enjoying a date night, or simply need an extra hand, I’d love to provide your furry family member with the attention, care, and love they deserve. I work from home on Fridays and don’t work on weekends. I’m hardly away from my apartment aside from going to the gym which is right across the street from where I live, giving me quick and easy access to my apartment at any time. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible by following your feeding schedule, exercise routine, potty breaks, medication schedule, and any other care instructions you provide.

I maintain a clean, smoke free, and alcohol free environment, and my home is equipped with air conditioning to keep pets comfortable. I enjoy staying active and love taking dogs on walks, playtime adventures, or simply spending quality time with them based on their energy level and needs. Whether your pet prefers a crate, their own dog bed, or is used to sleeping in bed with someone, I’m happy to accommodate whatever helps them feel most at home. I work from home on Fridays and am home throughout the weekends, allowing me to spend plenty of quality time with your pet. Throughout every stay, I’ll provide regular photo and video updates so you can relax and enjoy your vacation, date night, or time away with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is safe, loved, and well cared for.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 15 years old. Back in Argentina, where I’m originally from, I rescued stray animals, provided them with their first care, and helped them find loving forever homes. That experience taught me patience, compassion, and how to make animals feel safe and loved. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or overnight care, my goal is to make sure your dog or cat feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’ll always provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring hands. I’m currently working part time from home so I have plenty of free time to enjoy the outdoors and take care of your pup while you can’t! . There’s plenty of room at my house to play and there is a lot of beautiful places arround the neighborhood to go for a walk

“Malia was professional, punctual and communicative throughout the process. Highly recommend her! We’ll certainly be using her services again! Thank you Malia for caring for our dog, Rio.”

“Nicole did a fantastic job w my pup Darwin, he is very shy and skittish but she was extremely patient with him. Would definitely trust her to take care of him any time”

“Dionnet was excellent! He was very reliable, and was great with our Husky. He made friends with him to get our dog comfortable first, and then our dog began looking forward to his daily walks with Dionnet over the 2 weeks we needed help. Our husky is very strong and likes to pull, and Dionnet was strong enough to easily handle a big, strong dog. I would request him in the future if in need of a dog walker.”

About: Most recently in March 2022, I enjoyed housesitting a sharpei for 3 weeks. Before that I housesat a very adorable golden doodle for a week. In 2021, my friends would often leave their dogs with me when they would travel lasting from days - weeks. I recently completed the Google UX Design Certificate. Therefore, I’ll be job hunting full time; I have time throughout the day to walk, feed, and hang out with your dog! Since I will be housesitting, your dog will be familiar and comfortable in their own home, decreasing the possibility of anxiety and maximizing their comfort!
