Dog Walking Holualoa

About: Hello, I have cared for dogs for 6 years and love them to death. I have a lot of energy for your dog or I can chill and pet him all day... whatever your baby wants I'm down! I am very flexible with my schedule due to my work. I work part-time so scheduling with me won't be a problem. If your furry babies have specific times I would be able to do so. I will take care of your pets like they are my own! I will make sure I have detailed instructions so your babies get the same care they would have in your hands. I love walking dogs or chilling with him with cuddle and pets. I am comfortable crating your pet or letting it roam based on your desires whenever I am not present with your pet. I am also knowledgeable in particular behaviors or needs such as anxiety, medication, and old age.

About: I've been an animal enthusiast my whole life! I love caring for pets but travel a lot so I can't have any of my own at this time. I am committed to making sure every animal gets the care and love that they need and deserve! I am great at paying attention to detail when it comes to schedules for check ins, feeding, walking, etc. I love to take active pets on adventures such as hiking or to the beach as well! I am experienced in caring for dogs, cats, fish (fresh and salt water), and reptiles. My schedule varies from week to week, however I can always make time in my day to make sure I am giving the proper attention to each pet! My apartment is not pet friendly but I am open to caring for animals in the comfort of their own home. I can house sit as well, making sure cleanliness and maintenance are a top priority.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, small animals, and hoofed animals, and my experience extends far beyond pet ownership. I hold bachelor’s degrees in biology, psychology, and anthropology. My studies in animal behavior, physiology, and research help me better understand animal body language, behavior, and individual needs. Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide variety of species, including exotic hoofstock and birds in a zoological setting, as well as pigs, goats, and birds through wildlife rescue and animal care work. I also volunteered in an animal shelter environment for approximately three years, where I handled and photographed thousands of dogs to help them find loving homes. Through that experience, I became comfortable working with dogs of all sizes, ages, temperaments, and energy levels. I have experience administering medications and genuinely enjoy caring for senior pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’m also passionate about exercise and an active lifestyle and am happy to provide outdoor walks and enrichment for energetic pets. In addition to my animal background, I hold a master’s degree in counseling, which has strengthened my communication skills, patience, and ability to remain calm and attentive in a variety of situations. Whether your pet is outgoing, shy, energetic, or senior, my goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care tailored to their individual personality and routine so both you and your pet feel comfortable and at ease. I’m a small business owner and public school teacher, which gives me a structured yet flexible schedule that works well for pet care. I generally have the most availability on weekends, school holidays, and breaks—especially during the summer months—when I can provide extended, consistent care and house sitting. During the school year, I’m typically available in the mornings and evenings on weekdays, with greater flexibility on weekends. I’m always happy to discuss specific dates and needs to see what works best for your pet’s routine. I value consistency, communication, and reliability so that pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for, and owners can enjoy peace of mind while they’re away. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where I focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine in the environment where they feel most comfortable. I follow all care instructions closely and make sure feeding, walks, medication, and daily routines are completed on time and as directed. I treat every home with a high level of respect and care, keeping spaces clean, organized, and exactly as I found them. I’m mindful of both the pet’s needs and the owner’s home, and I prioritize reliability, safety, and consistency in every visit or stay. I also believe clear communication is essential, so I provide updates as needed to give owners peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I grew up with cats, dogs, horses, ferrets for a while, horses, a turkey, chickens, and fish. Experienced with bully breeds, huskies, labs, French bulldogs, golden retrievers (from the very codependent to the aloof 😬), beagles, toy poodles, bichon, and many more. Education background in clinical psych with extensive behavior change training. Positive reinforcement is the only reinforcer I will utilize with pets and have taught dogs commands, better leash behavior, and even how to give high fives and piggy back rides (one needy golden retriever). I love all animals but sadly can’t have them in my building. Experienced with huskies both young and old (mine lived to be 16 as a rescue with a broken back and needed assistance often) and their unique personalities (e.g., selective hearing, never off leash unless it’s one of the two huskies I’ve trained to go off leash 🤣, boredom, and running away as a game) Flexible work schedule and able to accommodate almost all schedules and needs - whatever works best for you and your pets. Feel free to reach out I am available to housesit or do check-ins and walking and more. Not able to have pets in my home and miss having animals in my life.

About: Hi! I’m Shay, a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and animals of all kinds! 🐾 I’ve volunteered for years at Animal Care Centers of NYC, New York City’s only open-admission animal shelter, where I gained valuable experience working with animals from different backgrounds. I’ve also fostered multiple dogs, providing them with a safe, loving environment while helping them prepare for their forever homes. I recently worked at a farm animal sanctuary for 3 months full time with sheep, goats, pigs, chickens, geese, cats, bunnies, and dogs. Now I currently volunteer multiple mornings a week at another animal sanctuary here in Kona, where I care for a wide variety of animals including turtles, macaws, guinea pigs, chinchillas, bunnies, and more! Through my shelter work, fostering, and sanctuary experience, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal behavior, patience, and the importance of making every animal feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pup needs a fun daytime walk, some extra attention while you're away, or a loving and reliable overnight sitter, I’ll treat them like one of my own! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive, and compassionate care. I can't wait to meet your furry family members❤️ I own a small handmade jewelry business and work a combination of freelance and part-time gigs, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of daytime availability! I love spending time outdoors and with animals, so dog walking and pet sitting fit naturally into my lifestyle. I'm available for morning, midday, and afternoon walks, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting. I can often accommodate last-minute requests, recurring weekly walks, and your pet's specific routine. I'd love to become a familiar, trusted face your furry friend looks forward to seeing :) Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! Through volunteering at shelters, fostering multiple dogs, and working at 2 animal sanctuaries on the island, I’ve gained valuable experience caring for animals with different needs and personalities. I always follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions closely. I’m especially mindful of Kona’s heat, hydration, and safe walking conditions. I prioritize clear communication, regular photo updates, and treating every pet and home with love, care, and respect! 🐾

About: I’ve dog walked and dog sat for over a year and on and off for about 5 years.

They’re truly happiness and every dog I’ve ever met has always put a smile on my face. As of right now I currently work part time so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your dogs. Do any days of the week work I’m a trustworthy and reliable person and will prioritize spending time with your animals making sure they’re happy and safe.
