“I was in a bind looking for a sitter for my boy Max. On short notice Andrea was able to watch Max. She came over each day to take care of Max and provided pictures. We were missing Max and those pictures meant a lot!”

About: As well as having my own pets throughout my childhood and adult life, I have worked in an animal rehoming centre for 3 years where I cared for dogs and cats on a daily basis. I also worked for a dog walking business and volunteer at the local dog shelter! I am a British Royal Air Force veteran with work experience as an Explosive Detection K-9 Handler. My husband is active duty and we will be here in Honolulu for the next 3 years! I have lots of spare time to take care of your fur babies and cater to their needs! I live in a 2 story house with a yard that is securely fenced. I have a 3 year old catahoula leopard mix named Piper who is great with other dogs. All breeds of dogs are welcome in my home and will receive plenty of love and care!

About: From the first day I was born, I was surrounded by cocker spaniel puppies of my mother's. I was raised to care of different types of animals from dogs, cats, fish, turtle, bunnies, and mice! I have a great fondness and love for animals, especially dogs. We lost our 9 year old Maltese last August and would like to take care and provide some love for other dogs. I've house-sit/dog-sit my neighbor's black lab since 2008, and occasionally dog sit my friend's Australian Shepherd-Corgi mix puppy. I've also house-sit/dog-sit my coworkers black German Shepard several nights last year. I'm sometimes described as a dog whisperer, as dogs have had a natural fondness and friendliness with me. I have a night job as assistant manager/server in DT Bellevue, but morning and afternoon are wide open to take care of your furry companion.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and am comfortable caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I have experience with everything from energetic pets who need a good walk to seniors who need a little extra patience and care. I also have plenty of experience with large breeds—I trained and raised our 120-pound Bloodhound, who was part of our family for 12 years, so big dogs definitely don’t intimidate me! I’m comfortable with basic training reinforcement, different temperaments, and adapting to each pet’s individual routine. I currently offer drop-in visits and dog walking, so your pets can stay comfortable in their own home and familiar surroundings while getting plenty of attention, exercise, and care. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and am primarily available for drop-in visits and walks during school hours. My availability varies slightly from week to week, but I’m usually able to accommodate a few appointments throughout the week and have some limited evening availability as well. I keep my Rover schedule updated and am happy to work with you to find times that fit both your pet’s routine and my availability. I’ll care for your pets in their own home with the same respect and attention I’d expect for my own. I’m careful to follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, medications, litter care, and any house rules. I’ll respect your home and privacy, make sure doors and gates are secure, and keep you updated so you can feel confident that both your pets and your home are being well cared for.

“Veronica was great! Our three kitties were well taken care of. Everything was done as we had asked and then some. We’ve been putting off going away where we would be gone for more than a day for a long time now. Because we didn’t think we could trust anyone with our kitties. But now at least we trust one person, Veronica. So thanks Veronica!”

About: I have taken care of my 2 dogs for the past 10 years and I have taken care of my neighbors dogs many times. I have a very needy dog so I know when a dog needs to go for a walk or needs food. My only job is pet sitting so I am extremely available as long as I have time to go on hikes or walks around the city. I walk one of my two dogs 4-5 times a day and I walk my other dog only once or twice a day because she is very old but I feed both of them 3 times a day. I only gives them baths when they get stinky.

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’ve always had multiple dogs growing up and once I got out of grad school, I decided to get a dog to call my own. But I tell everyone that she found me, not the other way around :) From walks, to dog parks, to hikes, and many more, I enjoy spending time with dogs and seeing them happily play with their friends (both new and old). I have experience caring for dogs who are sick or who may have some anxiety. With that, I’m big on taking photos of pets, so you’ll constantly receive updates from me. I work from home full time and am able to take fur friends out on walks throughout the day. My neighborhood is very dog friendly and there’s always a new dog on the block to make friends with. I recently lost my fur baby of 11 years. I work from home full time so I’m able to care for your pup depending on their needs and how often they need to walk/be outdoors. I still have three beds to choose from so your pup will also be able to choose from that selection.

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life and they are truly my passion. I care for their health and needs, possibly more than my own, and I will put in the same care and care into your fur babies! Connecting with each animal and earning their trust is my protocol first and foremost. I have a lot of experience caring for a wide range of pets, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors, and can provide personalized care while carefully following any instructions given. If you book with me I promise to earn you and your precious fur baby's trust! My schedule is very flexible as I work part-time remotely at the moment and I am also available on the weekends for any Rover bookings. At this time I do not offer pet sitting in my home but when in my client's home, my priority is providing a calm and safe space for the pets. I will follow all instructions given as well as any specific care instructions for those with special needs. My goal is to mimic the pet's normal routine as much as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I focus on building trust by respecting each pet’s comfort level and offering gentle, positive interactions while staying attentive to their needs. I also take safety seriously by securing doors and gates and closely supervising outdoor activities. My goal is to ensure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for just as they would at home with you!

About: As a lifelong pet lover, animals have always been a central part of my home and heart. I have extensive, hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. Whether your pet is an energetic pup who needs long daily walks, a high-strung rescue needing a gentle touch, or a senior kitty looking for a quiet lap, I tailor my care to their individual routine. I am particularly experienced with sensitive and special needs pets. I understand that nervous, anxious, or fearful animals require extra patience, soft communication, and strict adherence to their comfort zones. I am fully comfortable and meticulous with routine medication administration (oral/topical), managing specific dietary needs, and monitoring behavioral cues to ensure your pet feels secure, safe, and loved while you are away. I own and operate my own internet-based business, which allows me to work 100% remotely from my laptop. Because I set my own schedule and work from home, your pet will rarely be left alone. I am available for frequent pot-breaks, playtime, mid-day walks, and strict medication schedules throughout the day. My flexible routine allows me to adapt entirely to your pet’s typical home environment, making my care ideal for sensitive, anxious, or special-needs pets who thrive on consistent company and minimal disruption. When caring for your pet, safety, trust, and keeping their routine intact are my highest priorities. Because I work remotely, I am able to give your home and pet dedicated, low-stress supervision throughout the day. I treat your living space with the utmost respect, maintaining high standards of cleanliness, security, and privacy while ensuring your pet feels completely safe in their own familiar environment. To minimize anxiety, I strictly adhere to your established ground rules, feeding schedules, and medication routines. During our daily activities, I maintain full focus on your pet's well-being by keeping dogs securely leashed, staying mindful of environmental triggers, and providing a calm, patient atmosphere where sensitive or special-needs pets can relax and feel completely cared for while you are away.

About: I’ve always had pets of my own and love to give them the best care of their needs, whether it’s love & affection to mental or physical stimulation, I’m ready to enjoy the day with them, Your pup will have so much fun with my dog (Oreo) & I. We hike daily and if your pup is active, they are more than welcome to join us on any hikes that we do! Or if they just like simple short walks that’s great too! 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! Does your dog have any allergies to food/other things? or is reactive with another dog, or around food? • please let me know in advance so I can take precautions. I love updates of what my pup is doing throughout the day, when I’m not with her, so if you love getting updates of pictures of your pup throughout the day or at the end of the day just let me know!

About: Aloha! My name is Anna! My family and I recently moved to the beautiful Oahu, and are excited to experience this amazing island! We welcomed a baby girl in September of last year, so I am currently focusing on motherhood, and it has been nothing short of amazing. In saying that, I sincerely miss my life in the non-profit world as well as meeting various new furry friends as a part-time pet sitter. If you think I’d be a good fit for your family, I’d love to chat! Taking care of my/your pet will always be my number one priority. I ensure you that I wil put their needs first when planning out my daily routine. I personally allow my dog to roam, couch surf, bed hop, etc. in my home, but can enforce rules if you do not do the same.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Hickam Air Force Base

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
