“Very responsive, kind, and attentive to both of our dogs (and to us). From the moment we picked them up from boarding, we knew that they truly enjoyed themselves. Photos throughout the boarding helped to put our minds at ease. Everything was truly great and we definitely know that we will use Tracey again! Mahalo for loving our babies as much as we do!”
“My lab had so much fun at her house and came home happy and tired after the weekend. Samantha kept me updated with photos and even took the extra care to reach out to me about my dog's allergies. Drop off/pick up was easy as well. I would 100% recommend her!”
“Camille was great with Stella! I really appreciate how easy the whole process was with her. Great communication and provided pictures daily to keep us updated with Stella. Definitely would trust her to watch Stella again.”
“Again, took great care of my fur baby. I appreciated all the updates and their fur babies get along so well with mine. He is always happy to see them and sleep over. Would easily recommend.”
“Dianna is the best! She takes the best care of our pup ili. We feel so safe and reassured knowing our pet is in the best hands with Dianna and her family. It’s make taking vacations so easy and care free for us. Dianna is must book for any of dog sitting needs!”
“Becky is a very nice lady and has s lovely family. My dogs seem to have had fun with her. She sent photos while I was away for a short trip. I like that she does a meet and greet at her home instead of a dog park. I feel more welcome and comfortable. Thank you Becky for caring for Raijin & Kuma. We will definitely use her again.”
“My dog did very well on his first 4-hour daycare with Christine 3 months ago. This time, it is overnight stay. I was worried, felt uneasy, then came updates. She sent photos of my dog cuddling to his son, even slept in their bedroom (just like home). She even hand-fed my dog and offered other dog food when my dog refused his food. The whole family took care of my small Pom like their own. She is really true to her word, "care for them like they’re my own."”
“This was my first time using a dog sitter, but Jacque sent video updates frequently, which made me feel completely at ease. She even gave Daisy a bath, and she smelled so good when I picked her up. Jacque is very experienced and provided wonderful care. I would definitely love to leave Daisy with her again.”
About: As a lifelong pet lover, animals have always been a central part of my home and heart. I have extensive, hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. Whether your pet is an energetic pup who needs long daily walks, a high-strung rescue needing a gentle touch, or a senior kitty looking for a quiet lap, I tailor my care to their individual routine. I am particularly experienced with sensitive and special needs pets. I understand that nervous, anxious, or fearful animals require extra patience, soft communication, and strict adherence to their comfort zones. I am fully comfortable and meticulous with routine medication administration (oral/topical), managing specific dietary needs, and monitoring behavioral cues to ensure your pet feels secure, safe, and loved while you are away. I own and operate my own internet-based business, which allows me to work 100% remotely from my laptop. Because I set my own schedule and work from home, your pet will rarely be left alone. I am available for frequent pot-breaks, playtime, mid-day walks, and strict medication schedules throughout the day. My flexible routine allows me to adapt entirely to your pet’s typical home environment, making my care ideal for sensitive, anxious, or special-needs pets who thrive on consistent company and minimal disruption. When caring for your pet, safety, trust, and keeping their routine intact are my highest priorities. Because I work remotely, I am able to give your home and pet dedicated, low-stress supervision throughout the day. I treat your living space with the utmost respect, maintaining high standards of cleanliness, security, and privacy while ensuring your pet feels completely safe in their own familiar environment. To minimize anxiety, I strictly adhere to your established ground rules, feeding schedules, and medication routines. During our daily activities, I maintain full focus on your pet's well-being by keeping dogs securely leashed, staying mindful of environmental triggers, and providing a calm, patient atmosphere where sensitive or special-needs pets can relax and feel completely cared for while you are away.
“I was so worried dropping off my 6-month old Labrador Retriever. We have never been away with him but we knew we had to rip that bandaid off. Rachael sent us update pictures and messages throughout the day! Our boy was so happy when we came to pick him up, it seemed like he didn’t want to leave! 10/10 recommend”
About: Throughout college I cared for many dogs for family, friends, and as a side gig. I am experienced in dog walking, feeding, oral medication administration, and light grooming. I always enjoy sending pictures of your pet to show what a great time we are having! As a stay at home mom, I have great flexibility. I would also like to share that I have two friendly dogs that are kennel and potty trained in our home and a two year old daughter. I am currently a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to walk dogs and do light care during the day. As for overnight care, we have two dogs that love pet friends as long as they are friendly and get along with others. We typically go to an on-leash park in the evenings and do outings on weekend mornings. We have two small, friendly dogs and a toddler that will keep your dog more than entertained! We have a small outdoor area for on-leash play and are a three minute drive to a big park/field where we have a good dog community. We want your dog to feel comfortable and happy during their stay so the first 24 hours is just about learning about your dog and gaining their trust!
“Shandri is absolutely the best sitter we have ever used. She was very professional when it came to caring for our Frenchie Delilah making sure we covered all her needs. She also sent daily updates and so many pictures that we were able to relax because Delilah was in great care.”
“Giselle was amazing! Honestly the best pet sitter I’ve had on Rover. She kept me updated everyday and I felt like my fur child was had the best care taken of her. Will definitely rebook”
“So appreciative of Halina watching my cat Johnnie while I traveled. She put me at so much ease with it being my first long trip away from the island and made me feel like Johnnie would be loved and safe while gone, which she 110% was. Communication was super fast and always helpful and informative and Johnnie was always in good spirits in videos. I will certainly be booking again with her 😊”
“Robin was amazing! She sent many updates and lots of pictures of my pup. She made my dog, Dixie, feel comfortable and at home. She’s truly a miracle worker and took my pup in, despite not having much notice. I’ll most definitely go back to her in the future! 10/10 recommend”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Camp H. M. Smith
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.
