Hayley checked in on our pup a few times and spoilt her. Hayley sent lots of photos and provided a detailed update of her visit too, which was much appreciated. Thank you! We would definitely book with Hayley again.

Brandi is great! She is very communicative and is always on time. My two pups absolutely love her! She brightens their day when she comes over to give them a potty break during our long work hours. Our older dog has some health problems and she gives him his mid-day mediation. Their quality of life is so much better now that she’s a part of it!

About: Born & raised around dogs and cats. I understand how important they are & how they’re family more than anything. I’ve taken care of dogs from German Shepard’s to Labradors to Miniature Poodles etc. I’ve taken care of older dogs who need to take medicine and younger dogs who need to be house trained. Seen it all! I go on walks throughout the day & make sure food & water & temperature is all good. I work very close to home, so I am able to come home for lunch if necessary. Activity outside is just as important for animals as it is for humans. I live close to a fenced dog park & take toys with me for playtime!!

About: I love fur babies more than I love humans✨💝 they're such pure souls ! Ever since I got to own my dogs and interacted with animals , I've been in love ever since. I hope to someday open a shelter for all dogs , whether it's for strays,abused,neglected etc! Every dog deserves love and affection ! And I thank you for entrusting me to care for your loved one🥰 I understand it's never easy to leave your fur baby with just anyone in general, so that's why I'm here to give your baby love&attention while you feel at ease wherever you may be at work or just for a quick outing! I am home throughout the week typically as I do majority of my schooling remotely.And work here and there on the side outside of rover, I have a lot of time to care and love on your babies! Once I care for your baby , they are already a friend till the end of mines! I live in a gated complex and my apartment has a lot of space for your fur baby to roam around including multiple fenced yard spaces for your baby! Flooring is wood tiled and we keep all areas of the apartment clean (as we are germaphobes) to ensure your fur baby is protected and safe. Your fur baby is welcome always on pillows to lounge on including our beds (we do laundry/wash/sanitize DAILY). I also ensure to wipe paws after each walks. We have AC/fans on constantly so there is no concern if your baby is getting cool air! However , if you have specific requests , I am always able to accommodate if needed (ex. on the bed or off the bed , etc etc ). My goal is always to love up on your babies and to make sure you as the pet owner is comfortable and at ease ALWAYS!

About: Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s what I love. I’ve spent years working hands-on with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I truly believe every animal deserves patience, respect, and individualized care. From energetic puppies and shy rescues to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I’m experienced in adapting my care to each pet’s unique needs. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of reliable care. I’m primarily available during the morning and early afternoon, which allows me to provide attentive, unrushed visits that fit well with pets’ daily routines. I care for pets in their own home, where they’re most comfortable and relaxed. I follow your pet’s established routine closely—feeding, playtime, litter or potty care, medications, and quiet companionship—so their day feels as normal as possible while you’re away. I treat your home with respect, keep spaces clean and tidy, and take time to make sure your pet feels safe, calm, and well cared for. Thoughtful attention and reliable updates are always part of my in‑home care.

About: I've been taking care of dogs since last year. My neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, and take care of their pets whenever they go on vacation. I'm currently applying to work at various hotels. I'm avaliable after 2 pm on weekdays, and I'm also avaliable on the weekends, but it varies depending on what I have going for me that week. In my home I feed, and walk our dog. I play with him. and make sure he gets the proper attention he needs. I also make sure he is secure at night. When walking him, if he wants to meet other dog friends on the way, we do that, but I make sure both dogs are calm and happy before engaging.

About: I’m a lifelong dog and cat lover with four cats of my own, and I grew up in a home filled with both dogs and cats. I’m very active and enjoy taking long walks, playing at parks, and spending quality time with pets. I understand how important it is for cats and dogs to get the attention and care they need, and I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I am currently between jobs, and the government furlough has delayed the start of my new job. Because of this, I am searching for alternative income. I have a very open and accommodating schedule and am able to work when you need me to. I am a very attentive pet owner. I make sure that my pets are loved and cared for. They always have a clean-living environment with food, water, and the amenities they need. I am sensitive to animals and their needs and will make sure that your pet gets the attention and care they need.

Sarai provided great report cards at every drop in visit - often with fun details about who our dog met while out on the walk (both human and canine). She was able to manage eye drops, special hygiene needs, and cater to our dog’s vision and hearing impairments. We would recommend Sarai and hope to rebook with her in the future.

About: Growing up, my family always had at least one dog, but there was even a time we had 4 dogs and several puppies to take care of all at once, too! (Plus my sister and I convinced our parents to get a cat!... I'm sure they felt a little out numbered..) I was in charge of making sure the pets were properly fed, had fresh water, and of course that they got to see a little more of the world on their daily walk or occasional run...I am pretty active, so if you feel your pup needs a little extra movement and would like to run, I am open to all their needs! I am here to listen to your wants and concerns for your animal and am here to help! I am open to caring for dogs of all types, size, ages, and stages. I've helped take care of everything from a few second old newborn pup to nursing momma to an old dog that has all the tricks. Here in Hawai'i, I have not been able to have a pet myself (not an optimal space, or not allowed), so I thought it would be a great opportunity to help others like you take care of their furry friends!!! :) My schedule is currently open for anytime to care for your special animals! In the near future, anytime in the mornings (great time for a cool walk while we go into the hot summer!) or late evenings will be my optimal time to assist and take care of your furry friends, but I will of course communicate and update my availability when the time comes. I am free on the weekends anytime, so if you need someone to check in on your pup while on your weekend getaway, I am there for you! :) I will care for your animals likes and needs as YOU see fit. I believe pets are family and deserve just as much of a healthy happy life as we do! And though I hope to be somewhat a part of your pets daily life, there's no one that knows them like you! I will take your guidance of their usual routine and activity, plus any notes of their personality to make sure your fur babies are getting the best routine and care suitable for them!

Victoria was a great sitter for my 2 cats! She was quick to respond and very accommodating even with a short-notice request.
