I work part time and my schedule is pretty flexible, as long as I know ahead of time, we can work out a schedule that works out! I have a fenced in yard for bathroom breaks or for play time. If your dog is crate trained during the night and you wish to continue, I have medium size crate but you are welcome to drop off their own crate with them, if they like to rest in their own crate, otherwise they are free to roam around the house and rest anywhere!

About: Aloha! My name’s Mackenzie and I genuinely love animals. I worked at a humane society in California where I grew up, and I’ve cared for many dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I’ve lived on Oʻahu for the past three years, and I have two cats of my own. I also grew up around dogs, cats, and other animals, so being around pets has always been a huge part of my life. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medications, supplements, walks, playtime, and more complicated care schedules. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I treat every animal with patience, love, and attention like they’re my own 🐾 I work in Waikīkī, so I’m available for drop-in visits before and after work and on my days off. For boarding, I’m typically away for about 6 hours during my shift. Your pet will get plenty of attention, exercise, and care before I leave and as soon as I get home. I’m happy to be flexible with drop-off and pick-up times whenever possible. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about my schedule! I follow feeding schedules, walks, medications, litter box cleaning, and any instructions carefully. I’m also very communicative and like to ask questions and be thorough so I fully understand your pet’s routine, personality, and needs. I know how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets and in your home, so I always try to be reliable, respectful, and communicative. I currently only offer boarding for cats. Visiting cats stay in their own private room, completely separate from my two resident cats, to help everyone feel safe and comfortable. For longer stays, if both cats seem interested and ONLY if the owner is comfortable with it, I may allow short, supervised play sessions to help with enrichment and socialization.
About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs, ranging from puppies/kittens through adult/senior cats and dogs as well. I will always make sure your pet is taken care of and well loved!

I will always ensure that your pets are comfortable in their environment. Whether that is in their home or on a walk. I will be vigilant when watching your pet so that you don’t have to worry!

About: Hi, I’m Kari! I’ve been a dog lover my entire life and currently share my home with Lola, my senior terrier mix. As a pet owner myself, I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet behind, which is why I strive to provide the same level of care and attention I would want for my own dog. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, including senior pets who may need medications, extra monitoring, or a slower pace. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, my goal is to help them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. You can expect: • Dependable and attentive care • Regular updates and photos • Experience with senior dogs • Comfortable administering medications when needed • Clean and pet-friendly environment • Plenty of love, patience, and attention I know every pet is unique, and I’m happy to work with owners to maintain routines, preferences, and special care instructions. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already care for my own senior dog, Lola. I work a consistent daytime schedule, which allows me to provide reliable drop-in visits, walks, and pet care before and after work, as well as throughout the day and on weekends. I understand the importance of routine for pets and will do my best to keep them comfortable, happy, and cared for while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care requests provided by owners. I believe every pet is unique and deserves individualized attention. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for while you're away. Whether caring for pets in your home or mine, I strive to create a calm, safe, and loving environment.
About: I have had pets and the responsibilities of pet care all of my life. I grew up with a variety of pets, including Persian cats, boxers, pit bulls, cocker spaniels and french bull dogs. In 2021, my husband and I adopted our own dog, Summit. He is a pit bull hound mix from Kauai Humane Society and the world's biggest sweetie. My friends and family have trusted me for years to give affectionate, responsible care to their animals and homes. Since I work from home, I'm able to be around 24/7. I love a change of scenery, so leaving my home to stay in someone else's for a week or more is no problem at all, ensuring your pet has consistency. I'm affectionate and will make sure your pet has cuddles, play time, and all of their needs met and exceeded. I work from home and have completely open availability. As long as I have enough notice, any day or time works. I can accommodate up to 7 consecutive nights of caring for your dog in your home. If I watch your pets in my own home, we will need to ensure your pet and my dog are a good fit together. He gets along best with small dogs. I have a fenced in backyard. But if I watch dogs or cats in your home, then I'm good with any pets!

About: I’ve had a passion to make animals lives better since I was a kid.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Shafter
My fur-babies had a wonderful experience with Cora! She was dependable and attentive, adjusting to the needs of their different personalities. She made sure they were comfortable and well taken care of, and she left everything very clean. Her daily updates and pictures provided me with peace of mind knowing they were being loved and cared for. I highly recommend Cora - she is a true gem. Thank you, Cora … I look forward to rebooking you again! 💎😻😻

Karina is amazing! She is so good with our three pups! Karina took extensive notes during our meet and greet regarding each of our dogs and their individual personalities. We have one dog that is very selective with new people and she loved Karina immediately! All our dogs absolutely love her drop in visits, and we trust her to be in our home and care for our pups.

We couldn’t have been happier with the care Haily provided to our dog. It was clear that our dog was comfortable, happy, and well cared for while we were away. Haily was dependable, caring, and great at communicating with us. She gave us complete peace of mind, and we would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Very grateful and appreciative of Chloe’s help with dropping by daily to check in on my dog while I was away on a last-minute vacation for over a week! She provided daily updates with pictures and is professional, courteous and kind. My neighbors also happened to meet her when she visited and said the same. She was a pleasure and easy-going to work with! Would recommend again.

Our two small doggies had very good care while we were away. Both doggies were happy and comfortable, and our doggie on meds got them twice a day without fail. Dagmar has excellent communication - couldn't be any happier there. We recommend and wouldn't hesitate to book her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fort Shafter is $13 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $8 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,439 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fort Shafter. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
