House Sitting in Hanapepe

“Diana was fantastic! She messaged me every day of my trip with my photos and updates of Pippi. This was my first time having a sitter at my house and it worked so well with my senior dog. I was so happy knowing she was comfortable at home and in good hands. I will definitely be using Diana in the future!”

About: It is a privilege to take care of your pets while their parents are away. I will love your pets and treat them as if they were part of my family. The love, time, and care your pet will receive will put your mind at ease and allow you to enjoy your time away. I am open to questions, so let me know if you would like to meet. Thanks! Why I love pet sitting I have loved animals ever since I was born. I have had my own dog for 13 years. Being in your home, I will follow any schedule you provide to keep your pets happy, healthy, safe and comfortable while staying on their schedule. As I stated above. My goal is to follow your wishes and desires for your pet. Their comfort and safety are my primary concern always.

“Leilani did excellent, the dogs and cats were well taken care of. She followed our written instructions and was great at keeping us updated on how things were going. The home was taken care of very well and we will definitely book her again in the future.”

“Kaleta is amazing! The moment we met I knew she would care and love our animals and house as we do. She took great care of our dog who LOVED getting the exercise she needs with a 3 mile walk and daily park outings. We were spoiled with pictures of our fur-babies during our absence making us feel even more comfortable with our choice to use Kaleta. The most notable thing that set Kaleta apart is that she got our very elusive tortoiseshell cat out of hiding. This is no easy feat, so you know Kaleta is good people when she did this within a couple of days. We are so thankful for Kaleta and the wonderful service she provided. I highly recommend Kaleta!”

“My 4 furry kids took to Sarah immediately! As an individual she is reliable, loving and kind and quick to learn the somewhat complicated matter with food allergies and feeding, medication and supplements. She also shared pictures on text.”

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: As of May 2025, I relocated from Santa Fe New Mexico to the island of Kauai. House and pet sitting provides a fabulous opportunity to get the know the island and her people in a unique way! While living in Santa Fe over the past year, I have been housesitting for friends and clients who frequently travel to Europe on extended visits. Each time they returned from their journey's, they found their homes well maintained, tidy and organized. My experience with animals primarily comes from my ownership of 9 dogs spanning over three decades. I also briefly owned a bird while in college and grew up with 4 feline friends as a child. Each one of these precious animals holds a special place in my heart. Since I currently do not own any pets, I cherish the company and companionship of others' pets. I've had successful vegetable and flower gardens in my backyard in the past and would enjoy watering and caring for your garden as well as any other duties, like bringing in the mail, taking out the trash and of course, cleaning up when my visit is concluded. I am a solo traveler and would welcome the opportunity to sit your home and pets while acclimating to life on Kauai-offering you peace of mind with a responsible and mature sitter. I am a former teacher which will offer plenty of flexibility in my schedule for walks and care of your pets as well as looking after the property. I will do everything I can to make sure your beloved pets receive the best care while you are away from home! Understanding your specific needs for your home and/or pet, I will carry out all instructions, keeping the routine of your home/pet(s) in sync with what is the norm. All exercise needed, play-time, meal times and any other specific requests for the home that we agree on will be carried out. I have been praised for leaving homes tidy and clean.

About: Hi! My name is madison and I love animals! I grew up with my own dog who loved to run around the house and go play outside. I learned how to take great care of animals and have had the opportunity to watch friends and families pets for several nights. I love to exercise and would love to bring your pet along with me if that’s something that fits them. We have a big grassy area right outside our apt and a trail for short walks across the street. When your pet stays with us I can assure you they will get plenty of attention from my husband and I. I am starting a work from home career so I will be available constantly to take your pet outside to go to the bathroom and play with them. The longest I would be out of the house would be 2-3 hours at most. I will make sure they are fed and taken outside as often as instructed. In addition to that, I will make sure to give your pet as much attention as it wants. I probably want to play with them more than they can imagine!

My daily routine and days are open to prioritize your pets care and attention. I live out of town so I will be mainly doing a tiny bit of video editing. I spend a lot of time outside and indoors with pets and would love to spend quality time with your pet, giving them the attention they deserve.
