“My husband and I went on a two-week trip. We were so lucky to find Tracey and her family to help us to take care of my dog Shadow. They were quick to respond to texts, if I had any questions or concerns. They were very professional and accommodating. They genuinely love and care about all the dogs and their well being, their home is so neat, tidy and clean! They have so many toys, more than enough for my dog and other dogs to play with. I also like how Shadow was able to hang out and socialize with other dogs. My dog came home all happy and content. I know Shadow had a great time and enjoyed staying at Tracey’s house! I also received many pictures of my dog daily during my trip! I really appreciate the pictures. It was wonderful to see Shadow having a great time with other pups while I was away. If we ever need to go away for another trip we won’t hesitate to contact Tracey’s family! Thanks again for helping us to take great care of our dog Shadow! We really appreciate all your work!”
“Catalina is amazing!! My dog Booker fell in love with her immediately. Catalina is a true animal lover who took wonderful care of my boy. I will definitely be using her again!”
“The sweetest host and my baby had such a great time! I loved my picture updates and how happy my girl looked. Even when I picked her up, Karma seemed so happy but also worn out from all the playing so I know she was well taken care of. Another great sign is that Karma didn’t come back itchy!! She has skin and food allergies so that means Samantha was good about sticking to her diet and there was nothing around to irritate Karmas skin. Absolutely love!!! Thanks again!”
“Great pawsitters! My furbabies had an excellent time with them and their furbabies. The daily updates with lots of photos gave me peace of mind that my doggies were in good hands while I was away. I am happy to have found a new sitter and will be booking with them the next time I go out of town.”
“Mayra is an amazing dog sitter. We had two dogs she took care of while we were out of town for two weeks. The pictures she sent each day shows how well our dogs were doing and we were very happy that they were in such a good caring environment. Especially our second dog was his first time at a sitter and he requires quite care (daily brushing, etc) and he seems so well taken care of. Definitely we would like to use her service at any time when we are out of town. Two thumbs up!”
“Such a sweet woman with a beautiful family. Have no doubt that my dog was given the upmost care. Definitely enjoyed the photo updates as well! Thank you April! Will book again.”
About: I have always had a love for animals! I work with animals daily. I have owned 2 of my own dogs now and I grew up with a family dog. I currently work Monday-Thursday. I am available to walk your pets or do drop ins before and after work. Friday-Sunday I have all availability anytime to walk or do drop ins. I will make sure your pets get the attention and exercise needed for them to be happy! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog and cat, who will enjoy keeping your pet company. I have an extra crate and baby gates to make sure that everyone has their own spaces.
“I would recommend Christine as a sitter for your pet. She genuinely shows how much she cared and went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable while I was away. She kept me updated shared photos regularly. She provided extra attention to my pup as he has medical issues. Her attentiveness, transparency, and honesty about how everything went meant so much to me.”
“Jacque was very accommodating on my close in booking. She had great communication throughout my trip and my dog seemed happy at her house. Highly recommend her and would love to book again.”
“Mindy and her family are absolutely amazing!! Our golden retriever Rocky stayed with them for 2 weeks and truly had a vacation of his own! Mindy kept our minds at ease our whole trip back to the mainland, with picture and video updates daily! Rocky got to play with the kiddos, went to a baseball game, walks and a water/spa day (head massages included)! Will definitely be using Mindy again in the future and highly recommend! Thank you again to Mindy and her family”
About: Animals have been a part of my life since I was growing up in El Salvador. ❤️ I have experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds, and I truly enjoy making every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable. One thing that sets me apart is my patience with shy or nervous pets. I cared for a Husky-German Shepherd mix who was initially afraid of me, but with time, patience, and consistency, he learned to trust me and became excited to see me. That experience taught me how important it is to respect each pet’s personality and let them build trust at their own pace. I have also cared for cats for many years and helped look after a sweet Pit Bull and a small Shih Tzu. I will treat your furry family member with kindness, attention, and love, just as I would want someone to treat my own pets. 🐾💕 I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule and a lifelong love for animals. I’m available on weekday mornings and afternoons, and I can also help on weekends with advance notice. Living in beautiful Hawaii, I know families sometimes travel between islands or go away for the weekend and need someone trustworthy to care for their furry family members. I can offer boarding in my home or visit your home to provide loving care while you’re away. My home has a fully fenced yard, giving dogs a secure outdoor space to enjoy under supervision. I would provide a loving, calm environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and opportunities to relax. As a mom, I’m mindful of maintaining a safe environment for both children and pets. I would always supervise interactions and make sure each dog has the space and care they need. When caring for pets in their own homes, I’ll carefully follow their routines and their owners’ instructions, including feeding schedules, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, and any special needs. I’m also happy to send photo updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Steve took fantastic care of my chocolate lab for over a year! He went above and beyond to make sure my boy was always comfortable and got the care he needed. He also sent plenty of picture and video updates so I’d always know that he was having a good time and well cared for. I knew it was a good sign when my dog would always be so excited to see Steve. My dog is 96 lbs and still has a lot of puppy energy but it seems Steve was more than apt to handle it. He was always our trusted go-to sitter and also our weekly dog walker! Steve walked ‘Umi every weekday during lunch, assuring he got the exercise and attention he needed when I was at work. Mahalo, Steve!”
“"Johenid was amazing! Leaving my cat in a new place is always stressful, but her home was a total cat paradise—safe, quiet, and very welcoming. She gave my cat time to adjust and sent photos of him everyday. I could tell he felt right at home. Drop-off and pick-up were incredibly smooth. I will absolutely board him here again!"”
“Nichole was TRULY AWESOME!! I was gone for 10 days, and my dog is not used to being with unfamiliar people. But she did an amazing job of keeping me informed about how she was doing and clearly treated my dog super well. Would use her again in a heartbeat!!”
“Thank you Robert, Jack looked content, at home with his stay at your home in the daily photo's you sent to us. Since he has been home with us, he has no anxiety, no negative vibes. You made him feel at ease, at home, transition has been great. Thank you again for making Jack feel right at home.”
“Brody had a fantastic stay. He is one tired pup now and that can only be down to the incredible attention and playtime he got whilst with Jay and the family. They provided photos and videos frequently. Kept us up to date on anything important and gave Brody so much love and attention. I think he’s going to be missing his buddies for a while! Thank you for taking such good care of him 🐾”
“Thank you so much for watching our dog. It was such a relief knowing she was well cared for. She’s a senior dog with daily medications and special needs, and Erin and her family did a wonderful job making sure she was comfortable and safe. We’ll definitely be using them again as our dog truly became part of their family!”

Charlene was great with Bambam! This was my first time boarding my dog and she was very patient and understanding with me. She took great care of Bambam and I will definitely use her again. It was very important she only takes one dog to watch at a time. I feel it provided a safe environment for my dog. Much Mahalo!!! Jennie G.
Aimee was super amazing with our dog hero. She would consistently send us photos while we was on our trip. I would have her watch our dog again when we go on a trip again. Plus this was our first time doing this with our dog and she made us feel confident that everything will be okay while we were away.
Samantha is the best! She took such wonderful care of my dog and two cats while I was on vacation. She sent pictures and updates throughout my trip, which gave me so much peace of mind. Seeing how happy, relaxed, and comfortable my fur babies looked made my heart happy! It truly felt like they were being cared for by someone who loved them as much as I do. Samantha was so kind, attentive, and responsive from the very beginning. It’s not easy leaving your pets behind, but she made the whole experience stress-free. I’m so grateful for the love and care she gave my fur babies. I highly recommend Samantha and will definitely be trusting her with my little crew again! ❤️🐾
This was my fifth time using Tracey and her mom on Rover. I knew that my dog was in very good hands and my mind would be at ease. Communication was fantastic! I received daily texts with pictures and updates throughout my trip. My dog was allowed access around the home. She really enjoyed herself while being there. I highly recommend Tracey if you need someone to watch your dog while you’re away. Tracey and her mom will always be my only dogsitters on Rover, and I will definitely be booking with them again.
Lily was absolutely wonderful taking care of my Boxer while I was on vacation! She provided daily updates along with pictures, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was happy and well cared for. Her communication was excellent, and I truly appreciated the attention and care she provided. I highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. I will definitely be using her services again. Thank you, Lily, for taking such great care of my Boxer!
Giselle provided exceptional care for our Kobe, and we couldn’t have been happier with our experience. From the moment we met her during the meet-and-greet, we felt completely comfortable leaving Kobe in her care. Her home was extremely clean, safe, and welcoming, and Kobe immediately felt at home—he was exploring the house almost as soon as we walked through the door. We actually decided to book with Giselle right after meeting her. Throughout Kobe’s stay, Giselle followed all of our care instructions exactly as requested. She also went above and beyond with communication, sending us detailed updates with pictures and videos at least twice a day. Every photo and video showed Kobe looking happy, comfortable, clean, and well-groomed. Knowing he was so well cared for gave us tremendous peace of mind and let us truly enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. We genuinely appreciate the time, attention, and care Giselle gave our little Kobe. She treated him like he was part of her family, and that meant a lot to us. We will absolutely re-book with Giselle in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and trustworthy sitter!
Andrea took such good care of our dogs! One had an unexpected medical emergency the day we left and she handled additional medication on short notice with ease. She was communicative and sent us plenty of updates throughout the week and change our dogs were with her. We are so grateful to have left our pups in such caring hands!
Another great visit for Rocky! Mindy sent multiple picture and video updates to keep our minds at ease! Playing ball in the backyard, watching baseball games, and even a beach day! Thank you so much again to Mindy and her family, they care so much & it really shows! Will definitely book again if we need a sitter!
Emma is awesome!! While on our trip we were so comfortable and at ease knowing our dog Saydee was well taken care of. Emma gave Saydee her daily required meds and sent us updated pictures and videos and we could tell Saydee was content and relaxed. I would highly recommend Emma as your pet sitter when planning a trip. When we plan our next trip we would definitely use Emma again. Thank you Emma for taking care of Saydee!!!
Makayla provided outstanding care for Meli and Kekai! She was attentive, caring, and kept me updated with pictures, videos, and messages throughout their stay. I felt completely at ease knowing they were happy and in great hands. I highly recommend Makayla and would absolutely book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Camp H. M. Smith home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Camp H. M. Smith.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Camp H. M. Smith sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , 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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in HI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
