“Auntie Dianne is an ABSOLUTE gem! She is in a word… INCREDIBLE! We are so lucky to have found her!!!! She has dog sat for us twice now and has provided TOP NOTCH love and care of our furbabies! She is very proactive with her communication both with initial meet up and during her service! She shows up on time and checks in at appropriate intervals with updates of our fur-kiddos (with adorable pictures of course!)! She is easy going, flexible, relatable and sweet as pie! In addition to treating our babies with the same tender love and care as she would her own, she treats our home with the same level of respect — consistently leaving our home even cleaner than how she received it! Can’t beat that! We can say with absolute confidence that when we leave, we know and trust our furbabies and home are under her competent, watchful and loving eye! She is our first call for all our doggo sitting needs! Mahalo Auntie Dianne! Till next time! 💕”

“Kristen was a wonderful sitter for our two dogs and two cats. She communicated throughout her stay and shared cute photos. We returned home to a few happy critters! Would highly recommend her!”

“Cathy went above and beyond with our pets and house while we were gone for the holidays and we can’t thank her enough! She was great with communication, is familiar with the island and great with animals. I don’t think I’ve ever returned from a trip to find our pets so relaxed and well cared for :) thanks Cathy!!”

“Best pet sitters I've found on the island! They LOVE dogs, which is really the most important thing. And they're very friendly and easy to work with. Plus, they have a ton of experience pet-sitting, so they aren't easily ruffled. Definitely consider Jody when you're looking for a pet sitter on the Big Island!”

“Austin was great. He and his wife communicated constantly, they always sent us pictures, the dogs were extremely happy when we got back from our trip and the house was spotless. Would absolutely recommend.”


“Daisy is a reliable, thoughtful and caring petsitter. She listened very well to our needs for our dog and outdoor cats. She went above and beyond our expectations, taking our dog out for more than just walks but fun car rides and adventures. She even asked if we had a seatbelt for him, and when we didn't have it at the house for her, she went and bought one "to have for next time." We really appreciate how Daisy is proactive in her job, she isn't afraid to ask questions about anything our dog may need. She communicated throughout her stay and sent photos which always made us feel reassured. Through our talks with Daisy, we learned what an animal lover she is. My husband and I highly recommend Daisy for petsitting any animal, and for housesitting. We will definitely call on her again!”

“Gregory was amazing during his stay with our Frenchie! He took him on walks and little adventures and we’ve never come home from a week long trip to a more happy and healthy doggo!”


“Andie cared for my home and 2 cats while I was away. She sent an update within first 24 hours & left my house cleaner than I left it. She responded quickly to questions & did not hesitate when I asked if she could stay an additiona day. Thank you Andie!”

About: I have been around and cared for dogs and cats for most of my life. This care has included walking, feeding, bathing, nail clipping, and maintaining proper sanitation. Being the son of a veterinarian, I also grew up learning the basics on animal first aid, administering routine medications, and caring for senior animals with mobility issues. I currently care for dogs and cats with special needs including skin dermatitis and allergies as well as diabetes. More specifically, I have experience administering sub-cutaneous injections and monitoring blood-glucose levels in cats. I currently work full-time as a research biologist, but typically have a flexible schedule during the week, particularly in the mornings and evenings. My weekends are typically free for any pet care needs. I care for pets based on what the client wants. This includes basic care (feeding, sanitation, exercise) as well as any special treatment the client requests.
“Katalin was fabulous with our dogs. She asked a lot of questions and really got to know them before we left. Our dogs were well taken care of and we would hire her again without hesitation. Great job!”

“Bob was exceptional with communication from start to finish! He had all the right questions to ask to make things go as smoothly as possible and have the best care for Pearl. She is intimidated when she first meets men but he knew just what to do and knew to ask the right questions to ask in order for me to convey this to him. They left the place cleaner than they found it and I appreciated that! I heard positive comments from neighbors about how well she was taken care of so I will definitely be calling on Bob again.”

About: I raised 5 different dogs over the years from the puppy stage and I understand and enjoy their company more than most people. I get along with dogs I love dogies of all sizes. My current dog is passed away so I don't have a schedule. Looking forward to taking care of your fur baby. Thank you very much. If I'm at your home you tell me the rules for your dog and I reinforce them with your pet. I am open for taking the dogs for rides in the car adventures and walks it's up to you.

“Kai made our stay away a lot less stressful. He sent some awesome pics of our dog getting hugged and spoiled...just what we hoped for! Looking forward to having Kai stay again in the future!!”
“Dani was absolutely amazing! Our usual sitter wasn’t available, I was extremely nervous and she was so sweet communicating thoroughly the entire time. So grateful she was available during the holidays and still able to enjoy her holidays! Cannot wait to utilize her expertise again! Thanks girl! ☺️”

“Aly was amazing!! One of our dog was injured needed some extra care and Aly was wonderful in providing that care. She was also great about communication and texting us updates. Not only do I plan on using Aly again, I’ve also been recommending her to my friends.”
About: We have been taking care of all types of dogs for the last 3 years. We are embarking on a new journey to Volcano in Hilo, Hawaii. In this location we will have more room for your babies to interact with and a safer environment. We are proud to continue baby sitting your babies in our new location if you allow us to. I will walk, feed, play, brush etc. your dog according to your schedule. We will try to maintain your dogs normal home schedule to avoid any behaviour change. Currently we make organic dog treats for Haru when he stays with us. Your pet will be hanging out with me all day around the house and outside in the neighborhood. No small items will be left at the reach of your pet to avoid any incidents.
