House Sitting Hanamaulu

“Lauren was great watching our 2 large dogs while we were out of town. They get excited sometime last and can be a lot to handle, but they loved playing with her and she was able to walk them.”

“We found Kaleta on Rover as first-time users and couldn’t have had a better experience. She was responsive from our initial contact and quickly arranged a meet-and-greet. Both we and our dog, Lolly, felt comfortable with her right away. Kaleta stayed with Lolly for a week and kept us at ease by sending regular updates and photos. She took Lolly on lots of adventures and clearly treated her with genuine care and affection. When we returned home, our house was clean and Lolly was happy and relaxed. We would absolutely feel confident booking Kaleta again and are so glad we found her.”

About: Hello! I can offer sitting, drop in visits, and walking for cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. I have worked closely with a veterinarian and a vet tech and have certifications in animal behavior and training. I have taken care of many cats and dogs throughout my years and have fostered kittens as well. I sincerely love all animals and hope to provide all necessary care and attention to yours and will make sure to treat them as if they were my own. I will make sure to communicate with you and keep you updated about your pet and make sure that they feel safe, loved, and cared for at all times. I hope you choose me to take care of your beloved pets as it would be a wonderful privilege and experience. Sincerely, Sophia Pearce I have a flexible schedule, especially in the evenings. My shifts are typically finished between 12pm-3pm, and I have Thursdays and Fridays off. However, this can change as I’m in the tourism industry. I have training in safety and animal behavior and will take care of them as if they were my own pets and communicate any issues if necessary.

“Sarah was awesome. Our pups had a great time with her and we will definitely have her come back!”

About: We have raised all types of dogs. From working dogs to avalanche dogs. Even wolf dogs. I have been involved with dogs my whole life. They are part of our family I am around the house all day. I have different fenced areas for the dogs to play. I also have different apartments the dogs can stay in. But i prefer all the dogs live and eat and sleep around us. I go on 1-2 walks a day. The Back of our property is a fenced 1acre fruit forest we allow the dogs to sit on couches and we have multiple dog beds around the house.

“My family and I decided on a last minute trip and booked a house sitting gig with Diana. We have two dogs and a cat, and as a first time Rover user I was hesitant to have a stranger look after everything. I couldn’t be happier with who I found. She was incredibly kind and attentive to our fur babies’ needs every step of the way. You could tell she loves what she does. She even met us the day before to get acquainted with the animals and listen to me ramble about where she should start (I’m a bit of a control freak). To top it all off, she left the animals a care package! Diana is all aces!”

“We have two grown dogs and a puppy, so Annabelle definitely had her hands full, but she did great. She stayed at our house. The dogs totally fell in love with her. Can’t wait to use her again.”

“Hannah is an AMAZING sitter. All of my animals loved her. She did a great job looking after our mountain house and left it cleaner than we left it for her :) She was so responsive, I never had to wait to hear from her and she even checked on my chickens and gave them a special snack, which was so nice! I was so relieved to be able to trust someone completely while I was far away. Would 10/10 recommend ❤️”

“Meaghan took great care of Spatch and Giroux and was very communicative and responsive! We will definitely readh out to use her services again!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my 9-year-old golden doodle, Reggie, while I was abroad for two weeks. Alex treated Reggie as if he were his own, giving me complete peace of mind throughout my trip. He sent frequent updates and adorable pictures, which really made me feel connected even from far away. On top of that, Alex went above and beyond by providing Reggie with homemade food, regular showers, and fun-filled park days. Reggie was clearly well cared for and comfortable, thanks to Alex’s thoughtful attention. I highly recommend Alex for any pet-sitting needs!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for 8 years! I currently work part time at a dive shop right across the street from my house! I work part time throughout the week and have a pretty flexible schedule. I work nearby and can easily check in during the day and have frequent breaks! I offer both boarding in my home and care in your home, depending on what is best for your pet. My home is warm, pet-friendly, and shared with 3 other people who also love animals so your pet will get plenty of attention and affection.

“We have 2 chihuahuas, a 1 year old and a 6 month old, that are extremely special to us. We have never left them alone for more than a few hours, so with an upcoming week long trip out of town, we were worried about leaving them. We heard about Rover and researched all the potential house sitters, we were so thankful to have found Sierra. Not only were we concerned about our puppy and temperamental 1 year old, we were nervous about having a stranger in house, coming, going, and spending the night. However, we were relieved and thrilled how professional she was, so friendly, sweet, calm, & respectful with our dogs and our home. She popped over to our place the day before we left town to acquaint herself with us, the dogs, and our house. Then she stayed 6 sequential nights and days, fed them twice a day, doled out copious treats, took them on car rides, walks, hikes, and to the beach, as well as played and cuddled with them at every night. Even our skittish 1 year old dog, after a day or so, along with our love-bug puppy, fell in love with her, and probably miss her now. She sent us status updates 2 or even 3 times a day, sharing photos of the pups on their adventures, lounging around the house, and cozy in bed with her at night, which quelled our nerves and made us happy so we could enjoy our trip. Also, she cared for our house, she was immaculate as there was not a dish in the sink or pillow and towel out of place, she cleaned up any pee spots, and even re-made the bed for us with fresh sheets for our return home. She was wonderful to work with and we look forward to booking her again for our upcoming wedding week out of town in a couple months, we highly recommend her! Thank you Sierra! :) April, Edis, Charlie & CJ”

“Carla is top notch at taking care of my French Bulldog Mitch! He didn’t even seem to miss me. Which is a great thing for me. Carla asked a lot of important questions and took amazing care of our home. I will definitely have her take care of Mitch again!”

About: My name is Chrissy! Since a very young age, I have always had a special spot in my heart for animals of all kinds, although it’s especially soft for dogs 🐕 I have raised and cared for many different breeds of dogs, all sizes too! I have experience with puppies, special needs and elderly animals. Most of my time is dedicated to caring for animals, while my husband manages a skate shop (he’s a dog whisperer too) & our littles are very respectful, loving and kind with all the different animals we’ve been blessed to spend time with. We are a pretty active family, always outside exploring & appreciating what the universe has given us. We love a long walk on the beach and we’d love for your pup to join us! 🌊 Mahalo nui loa for your consideration in choosing me to care for your loved one. 🐶 🐱 ❤️ My schedule is completely open for boarding, check ins, daily walks and doggy day care. Please feel free to message me with any questions regarding scheduling and pricing. I am more than capable of providing your pups with plenty of enrichment, exercise and companionship. Whether it’s a beach day, daily walks, or help administering medications - I’m your girl! I have my own transportation and am available between the areas of Kalihiwai to Kapa’a.

“Our pup adores Greg, and so do we! Greg kept our sweet pup exercised, rested, fed, happy, entertained and safe while we were on our first trip away from our little guy. We felt so happy knowing Mookie was in Greg’s capable hands. Would recommend Greg to anyone, and can’t wait to have him with our sweet pup again soon. Thanks, Greg!”

About: YOUR PAWS ARE IN GOOD HANDS WITH US :) :) Solution oriented, highly experienced with canines, and have a heart for helping people, and caring for animals...look no further. My wife Susie & I are originally from Missouri, and are high school sweethearts. We have lived on Kauai for 9 years, and are passionate in every way about dogs! We owned & operated a very successful in-home dog boarding business in Homer, Alaska for 3 years, where we averaged 6 dogs per day, and had almost 30 dogs staying with us on major holidays in our large 3-story home on five acres. We offered board & train services there as well. Besides boarding experience with all ages, breeds, and personalities, we have experience with training, breeding, volunteer vet work, canine healthcare, and have also served as dog handlers for an Iditarod sled dog team. Boarding with us: We have a wonderful home at the base of sleeping giant in the Wailua Homesteads in Kapaa. If your dog loves hiking, we certainly can fulfill that desire! We have cool tile flooring, and air conditioning for those hot Summer days, so there are no overheating concerns in our home. We have dog beds, human beds, and couches- all of which dogs are welcome on (we allow dogs to sleep with us too). We have a large backyard, and an enclosed back deck. We do not isolate our guests- they have complete freedom inside our home. When we go on walks, hikes, or trips- we utilize a leash for safety. We are not your average Rover sitters. We have such a great deal of experience, we know canine behavior, how to identify & treat health issues, how to adapt to every unique dog and their needs, and we care about our human customers just as much- acknowledging your specific needs & requests is very important to us, and we always maintain excellent communication. We are accustomed to some dog parents being hesitant and reluctant to leave their loved ones for a time, and we offer our support, reassurance, and patience with customers during that time, wether it be answering numerous questions, an extended delay to leave at drop-off, or several calls/texts requesting photos/updates- we're here for you, and completely understand. Feel free to reach out to us as often as you'd like while your dog(s) are with us to request updates/pics, otherwise we typically give you your space. We can pick-up and/or deliver your dog(s) to ANY location you’d like, just let us know (additional charges apply). Always stay in good communication with us regarding drop-off & pick-up days & times. Never arrive unannounced…we need notice before you are coming over (this is our home- not a commercial boarding facility with staff). What to bring at drop-off:  
1. Food- enough for the length of your dog's stay with us. Sealed containers with kibble are preferred. We do not store guest dog food in our fridge, so please bring appropriate food (no frozen, cooked, or raw foods that need stored in our fridge or freezer). 
2. Collar (or harness) & leash. ***Dogs must be kept on leash during drop-off & pick-up*** Please do not let them exit your vehicle upon arrival unless they are leashed. Same goes for pick-up...keep them on lead from our door to your vehicle please. Dogs that we DO NOT accept into our home for boarding (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY): 1. Aggressive dogs (aggressive towards humans or other dogs) 2. Dogs that have fleas 3. Intact males 4. Intact females during their heat cycle 5. Dogs that have extreme separation anxiety 6. Dogs that have accidents inside or not fully potty-trained (or mark inside) 7. Excessive barkers 8. Escape artists 9. Dogs that are destructive when left home alone House sitting: We offer premium house sitting services island-wide. We do require to meet with you first at your property to make sure it's a good fit, as we are very selective on where we stay, and who we're working with for live-in house sitting jobs. We're experienced home owners ourselves. Besides estate caretakers, we have been entrusted with the care and management of farms- both vegetable & orchard farms, & also livestock farms. We have personally owned dairy cows ourselves, and also have experience caring for horses, llamas, alpacas, sheep, goats & chickens. We are excellent with property management! Between Susie & myself, we also have experience with carpentry, electrical, plumbing, painting, power washing, house cleaning using natural non-toxic cleaning products, landscaping/lawn care, & tree pruning/hazardous tree removal. We are very well connected here on Kauai, and anything we don't know or can't handle ourselves- we know someone who can. We are caretakers at heart, and caring for animals is what we do best. We are the trustworthy family you have been looking for! We LOVE our job! We do not isolate dogs (unless owner requests us to), or it is absolutely necessary (we usually don't accept dogs for most of the reasons they may need to be isolated anyways). We treat them like they are part of our family (and they truly are while with us). The way we care for dogs varies specifically on a case by case basis. No two dogs, or owners, are the same, so we go with the flow (and requests/requirements/best interests) of the dogs & their owners wishes.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11. I love to take them on long walks, trips to the park, and out for a “pup-cup”. Recently my 14 year old golden retriever passed away, so I’m hoping to share my love with others’ pets that are in need of care! I’m currently working remotely full-time so would plan to work from your home while I’m watching your furry ones. This is an ideal solution as your pet is guaranteed focused attention and multiple bathroom breaks or walks per day. I treat every pet as if they’re my own. I love to make sure their needs are met & exceeded, plenty of pets/love are given, and that we send picture updates while you’re away! I am quiet & respectful and love to keep spaces clean, so I will treat your home as my own.

“Best pet love care I have had. Aubrey is attentive, thoughtful, and professional. My little doggo was very well cared for. Excellent communication, and care. Very grateful!”

About: My experience with dogs started at my home. I've had 2 dogs at home for 10 years, but my relatives all have four-legged friends, so I've always given them help when they couldn't be around. My experience in America began here in California with two very sweet poodles with whom I shared my weekends. Then I met three other fantastic friends, so I decided to register on this site to find other four-legged friends in the area❤️ I'm an Italian au pair, my schedule is constant and organised, but I'll be available every day of the week 🤩 I am also available during the weekend. I plan on caring for pets in my clients home ! I will give them the exercise they need, play fetch, feed them and play/cuddle with them ❤️ even watch tv with them if that’s the kind of company they like

“Ashleigh was awesome house sitting for my super high energy Aussie. She took him on multiple walks per day. House was in great condition after her stay. Highly recommend.”
