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!”
“Charlene was super flexible and communicative, she sent pictures of our dog at her place. Our dog seemed comfortable and happy to be with her. We plan to use Charlene again!!!”
“We were so lucky to meet someone like Dianne. Such a kind, patient, loving, attentive person is hard to come by. She has really help us more than she knows.”
“Giannina and her mother were wonderful. They had other dogs at their home which is what I wanted for my puppy so she could play and socialize. She had a great time! When she got home, all she did was sleep. She was worn out which was great! (Either that or depressed that she had to leave their house:) Zyla will be staying with them again in the future. Thanks!”
“Our dog, Panda, immediately felt at home under the care of Maddy. We were so happy to see Panda fit right in to her family. Maddy even provided updates and videos/pictures of our dog throughout her stay. Would definitely recommend Maddy to anyone looking for a trusted sitter for their dog. Thank you, Maddy! Until next time.”
“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.
“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”
“Although my dog was traumatized and stayed in his kennel most of the times..because he was afraid of her 2 dogs..Lily gave him the best care ...and kept me up to date on his progress.”
“Simply wonderful!! Yi, Ta and Irene made our Aussie a part of their family with daily walks and rope tugs while we were off-island for about a week and a half. Having frequent photos and videos of our girl playing, eating, sleeping and whatever else, showed that she had become comfortable with their family and made our trip that much more pleasurable, knowing that she was in good hands! Our pup came back to us well adjusted and happy from the constant attention! We would definitely use Yiye, Ta and Irene again and would recommend their services to others!”
“Erin and Colby are awesome! Their son also loves dogs as much as they do and they kept our young dog entertained and happy, we appreciated the pictures and videos they sent! Thank you so much!”
“Robin and Nick are the best!!!! My very first boarding for my Stella girl was last month Jan 2022. Ever since then I’ve been having my kitty Stella board with her every week due to my hectic work schedule. Robin is so understanding, kind, and very caring!!! She always updates me through the day with lots of pictures which I love! I love how my Stella gets a long so well with her cats! Always playful with them! She always has fun at aunty robin’s house! I would definitely recommend using her!!! I have no cons!!! Thank you so much Robin for helping care for Stella! ??”
“Giselle is so flexible and communicates so well. She is very detail oriented and wants to make sure she does the absolute best for our fur babies! I love all of the photos and can tell our girls are so comfortable and happy with Giselle and her husband.”

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.
Daylin was fantastic! She is always on time, communicates well, and sent me daily updates with photos of my dog, which I really appreciated. My flight was delayed, so I had to pick up my dog two hours later than planned, and Daylin was very accommodating with the change in schedule. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter. I will definitely book with her again in the future!
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!
Nothing but good things to say about Nicole and her week of taking care of our dogs. She sent pictures regularly with updates and went above and beyond to make sure the pups were happy and comfortable. In the past our dogs have at least a few days of being shy and not eating well and generally being sad. But by the end of day one with Nicole and her family she was sending pics of them both having a good time and eating and being happy. Would strongly recommend to anyone needing a good place for their dogs to stay. I would not hesitate to send dogs back to her.
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!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Halawa is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $55 per night. 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.

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.
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.
96% of sitters in Halawa can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Halawa home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Halawa.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Halawa. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
You and your Halawa 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
