Patricia is so incredible!! She’s great about sending photos and keeping everything clean and neat! She also definitely can speak cat because my kitty is very shy but absolutely loved Patricia right off the bat! I’m so thankful to have had my pets in good hands while I was away, Patricia is the best!

Kristen is a superior pet sitter. She took care of my dogs and chickens for 1.5 weeks and was on time for her visits. She made sure the dogs didn't escape from the fenced area, she played with the dogs, and even brought them a toy to play tug of war with. When we initially met, she had paperwork for me to fill out, which felt very professional, and in the meeting before we left, she took notes. When I was on my trip, I had forgotten to log into Rover from my phone, so in addition to submitting her photos and comments to Rover, she also sent me the pictures and comments to my phone directly. Lastly, our water system malfunctioned during the trip, resulting in beeping from the filter system. She took it upon herself to send me a video to inform me and asked me if there was anything I would like her to do to address the issue. This wasn't in her pet-sitting duties, but it was kind and thoughtful. I highly recommend Kristen for drop-in visits.

Maaike was so caring with my anxious little Tank. She did such a great job making him feel comfortable and making sure he was well cared for and happy. I especially appreciated her for filling in last minute after 2 other sitters canceled. Would absolutely book her again!

Marya is an excellent pet sitter. I was unable to physically take care of my cats due to heath issues. She responded quickly and I was able to know that my animals are well cared for. She sent photos of my pets so I could see the care they received. I highly recommend her for your pet caring needs.

About: I havent been on here in a few years. Getting back out there now that I'm back home in Hilo. I have had dogs most of my life. I have cared for freinds dogs for months at a time. I think dogs are family members. I'm that person that knows the names of all the dogs on my street, and some of the people. My current dog is a sweety and gets along great with other dogs, so I can bring a play buddy if they get along. I can't wait to meet your dog! I work from home, so I can make sure your dog gets the attention it needs. Day care or boarding can be a possibility on a case by case basis. Whatever your dog's needs are I can make sure they are taken care of. I can do short walks with smaller dogs and play with all dogs.

About: My dog of 15 years (lab mix) died a few years ago. I miss her, but travel a few times a year and don't want to leave a dog that long. I have lots of love to give and I love walking with a dog. I have extensive house and dog sitting experience with references. I send owners photos of their happy pups while caring for your pet as if were my own. I work at home (writer and online teacher) so your pet will be by my side during the day and we will take frequent walks together, if your pet likes that. I work at home and walk several times a day so I can bring your pet with me if they’d like to go for a walk. I’m also affectionate with animals, and they are affectionate with me so cuddles will be on the agenda. I have a park nearby and access to nearby home wirh fenced where I could visit with your pet so they could run around even more.

Dawn was fantastic. Always prompt & made sure our 12yo cat Salem got 'scritches' as affection is the only medicine he needs. We had not thought to mention how to handle a hairball ralph since they seldom happen but OF COURSE it did during our away time! He's a domestic longhair so the ralphs are pretty big. Dawn handled in stride & let us know exactly where it had happened in case our wood floor might need follow-up attention to the cleaning she did. Dawn is trustworthy & I wanted to show here that she goes beyond the call if something odd happens. Aloha

Vanessa was great. We were comfortable with her as soon as we met her. She simply stopped by once a day for three days to feed our two house kitties, clean their litter boxes and check on their welfare. She shared pictures of our babies each day and gave us daily updates to let us know they were doing fine. She followed our instructions very closely and had a very attentive, professional and cheerful attitude. Our kitties agree. We recommend her to care for your pets.
