Cat Sitting Hanamaulu

About: Born on Kauai, HI, All my life i've cherished animals, and my love for them grows everyday. I currently have 4 dogs, 2 cats, and a bird, and have experience in dog grooming and training. I've raised and cared for puppies, kittens, senior pets, pets with special needs, and other four legged friends alike! I live by carrying gentleness in my hands and patience in my heart. I currently work from home and care for my 7 pets every single day, from playful young pets to gentle seniors. Each one has their own personality, routine, and little quirks, and I've learned to meet them all where they are. I hope to spread that same love and care to as many pets as I can. I believe every animal deserves a warm, patient, and understanding home. I'm available all days of the week, so I can be flexible whenever your pet needs me! Whether that's a quick visit, a long stay, or just someone to sit with them and give them attention. I care for each pet based on their individual needs: their age, personality, and comfort level. I make sure every pet has a safe space to settle into, and do my best to keep routines consistent so they feel at ease. I also have a big fenced backyard where they can run around and play safely. For pets who need extra care, like my own special-needs cat, I'm patient and attentive to their specific requirements. I also keep dogs and cats in separate areas of the house when needed, so every pet feels comfortable and stress-free. Above all, I treat every pet like family, with the same love and patience I give my own.

“We were gone for a whole week and Lauren made sure our socially awkward pandemic kitties could somehow still feel the love in spite of their own shyness- not an easy or straightforward task! Aside from this triumph of caring patience she kept the alley strays we regularly care for fed, cleaned throw up off the rug, and kept the house from becoming completely coated in litter and fur. We are so grateful for her skills and kindness, and were able to enjoy our time away with the peace of mind she instilled in us. Thank you!”

About: 🏡 Home boarding • 🌿 Fenced yard • 🚶 Daily walks • ❤️ Hi!! I am Sarah, I have enjoyed being a dog mama and also fostering dogs through out the years. After losing my own dog about a year ago, I'm not quite ready to welcome another dog into my family yet. But, in the meantime, I've found so much joy in being the “auntie” to other dogs and cats! I have experience fostering dogs though out the years. I have fostered with Kauai Animal Welfare Society and the Kauai Humane Society. Those experiences has been really rewarding. It is so sweet to see a shy, scared dog learn how to relax and trust the world. I offer boarding for one dog at a time (or two dogs from the same household). I intentionally keep boarding small so your dog gets plenty of individual attention and doesn't have to compete with a house full of other dogs. I have a secure fenced yard and live in a wonderful, safe neighborhood that's great for daily walks. Your pup can enjoy the comforts of a home, outdoor time in the yard, and regular walks while receiving plenty of one-on-one attention. And I love to send photo updates to let you know your pup is dong great. I want boarding to feel less like a kennel and more like a stay with a friend who genuinely loves dogs. Whether you're a local heading out of town or visiting beautiful Kauaʻi and need someone you can trust with your pet while you explore the island, I'd be happy to help. I work from home and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give each pet plenty of attention throughout the day without feeling rushed. I’m able to make time for walks, play, feeding, and lots of companionship, while still being home with your pet. Since I only board one dog at a time, I can give them plenty of one-on-one attention and make them feel right at home. For boarding, I only care for one dog at a time and have a secure fenced yard and a safe, quiet neighborhood for daily walks. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and make sure they have plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, relaxation, and companionship. For drop-in visits, I follow your instructions carefully and keep your pet’s routine and your home as you’ve left it. I’ll always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort, and I’ll send photos and an update after each visit so you know how they’re doing.
