About: I’ve had a passion to make animals lives better since I was a kid. Taking care of animals is not just cleaning up their messes, but it is making sure we know their needs and reading their body language. To ensure your pet is comfortable it means to understand their needs and how they feel. But most importantly just spending time and having fun with them! I currently have a lot of free time on my hands so whenever you need a helping hand I will be there. Just reach out and I can make time! I will follow directions with what you are comfortable with in your home and also send photos through out the day or time that you request services.
About: I've been around animals since I was young so caring for them has always come naturally for me. I genuinely take the time to understand each pet's personality, routine, and needs. I'm comfortable caring for pets of different ages and am super patience with those that might need extra bit of attention or care. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I would want someone to give my own. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and happy while you’re away. Friends and family usually reach out to me in regards to taking care of their pets because of how much I enjoy spending time around animals, but also the level of care, patience, and love I provide. I'm excited to hopefully do the same with you! I'm currently an active Marine, however my current schedule is very flexible. I work a typical 8-4, and I'm 100% free on the weekends! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they are with me. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to follow the owner's instructions and keep their normal schedule as much as possible. Whether I am caring for a pet in my home or in a client's home, I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I also understand how important trust is when someone is allowing me to care for their pet and enter their home. I treat every pet as if they were my own and every home with respect. I pay close attention to a pet's behavior and surroundings, keep doors and gates secure, maintain a clean and safe environment, and communicate with owners so they can feel comfortable knowing their pet is in good hands.
About: I have owned dogs my entire life, and I have extensive experience in dog-walking and sitting, cat care, and home care, ever since I was a teenager. I love animals and am even a wildlife photographer. I have personal experience service training dogs for psychiatric service, as well. I am able to ensure not only premium, safe, and reliable love and care for your animals, but also your plants and the general welfare of your home while you’re away. If your animal has special needs or training curriculums, I am able to meet them, so your time away doesn’t become time off from necessary routines or specialized care. Additional services and excursions (hikes, dog parks, beach days, etc.) are available upon request. Mahalo for thinking of me for the care of your pet! I work part time in the evenings and am a member of a canoe paddling team that practices three to four times per week, so my schedule is flexible with plenty of time for your pets! Being a dog-owner myself, maintaining routines and going the extra mile for play and exercise is important to me. I am currently self-training my rescue for psychiatric service, so I am very comfortable working with dogs from a variety of backgrounds with different levels of confidence and social comfort. I have also cared for cats and am comfortable with their often varying levels of social needs, as well as their basic care. I will never use negative reinforcement with your animal, ensuring a gentle, fun, and trustworthy experience for your pet. Additional services and home care (plant care, delivery reception, maintenance/vendor monitoring, etc.) are available, as well.
About: I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up having multiple dogs and cats at a time. I have helped by grandma, neighbors and family friends with dog sitting, bathing, and walking since I was young. I love cats and their personality! I am unfazed by cleaning up after animals and am a professional litter box cleaner. I would consider my professional experience to be close to 7 years (definitely longer but I have been reimbursed for my services for the past 7 years). I’m currently very flexible with my schedule, which allows me to easily work around your needs and your pet’s routine! Whether your furry friend needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, feeding, companionship, or some extra playtime and attention, I’m happy to be there. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I’m more than happy to accommodate their schedule as much as possible. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away or busy. Whether you need occasional help or more regular care, I’m flexible and willing to work with you to find a schedule that works best for everyone! I currently live with roommates, so unfortunately I’m unable to accommodate pets in my own home. However, I’m more than happy to travel to your home to care for your pets! I can provide walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and any other care they may need in the comfort of their own familiar environment. I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away!

“We are so grateful for Darby! This was our first time booking with her and at first we were so nervous because it was also the first time we were leaving island for over 2 weeks. She took amazing care of our 3 cats and sent lots of updates, photos, and videos. She even spent extra time with them and also made sure we came home to a clean house. I highly recommend her!”

About: Hi, my name is Taylor, and I absolutely love animals! Growing up with both cats and dogs, I’ve developed an equal appreciation and care for both. As your pet sitter, I’ll make sure your furry friend gets everything they need to feel loved, cared for, and happy. My goal isn’t just to care for your pet but to build a connection with them. Whether it’s burning off their energy by playing with their favorite toys, practicing their tricks, or enjoying an adventurous walk, I’ll ensure your pet feels engaged and fulfilled. I’m patient and attentive, making each walk or play session all about your pet’s happiness. I also prioritize staying on top of your pet’s dietary needs, ensuring they receive the proper nutrition to stay healthy. With me as their sitter, your pet will be loved, well-cared for, and ready to relax after a fun-filled day. I look forward to giving your pet the best care possible I currently work remotely, which gives me a lot of flexibility in my daily routine. I’m able to take breaks throughout the day to care for your fur baby and ensure they get the attention and care they need. I prefer to start with an initial visit with you and your family in my home to ensure your fur baby feels comfortable and familiar with the space. This visit allows them to explore and adjust while I learn more about their needs. After the initial visit, bringing their favorite items, such as their bed, toys, and treats, will help create a welcoming environment and make them feel even more at home

“Debbie was simply amazing with my dogs. They took to her immediately and she took extra special care of both of them. She also promptly sent me pictures which are very important when I am traveling and really miss them. Don’t pass her up when booking !!!”
About: My pups are my heart and my life! 💖 They are the center of my world, and like many of us pet parents, I take care of my sweet babies better than I care for myself. My husband and I have had our little Marshmallow for 12 wonderful years and counting! For six amazing years, we also had our sweet CocoBear, whom we adopted as a senior with multiple health issues requiring special care. She has since crossed the rainbow bridge, but she is still loved, missed, and cherished by us every single day. Now that it’s just Marshmallow, she’d love some company! She’s super friendly and gets along very well with other doggies! 😊 Although I may be new to Rover, I’m definitely not new to caring for pets! I've been dog-sitting for over 12 years, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. In addition to dogs, I’ve had hamsters, rabbits, and birds throughout my life, and I’m also a very proud cat auntie! 🥰 I have very high standards when it comes to caring for my own babies, and I treat any pup in my care as if they were my own. I know firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your baby with someone else, so making both you and your pup feel comfortable and at ease is incredibly important to me. I’ll make sure your baby feels safe, happy, loved, spoiled, and right at home! I also love sending pet parents lots of photos and videos because I know just how much you’ll be missing them. 💖 As a stay-at-home dog mom, I’m able to give your pup constant attention, companionship, cuddles, and care. I have tons of love to give, and I’d love to shower your baby with all the love and affection in my heart! An added bonus: my husband also has a very flexible schedule and is home much of the time, so that’s double the TLC! Your baby will be petted and pampered and treated like the precious gem that they are! 🥹 I take so much pride in providing the best care, and I can’t wait to treat your baby (or babies) to a fun vacation and a warm, loving home away from home while you’re away! 🥰 I am a stay at home dog mama, so your baby will have all my time and attention! Additionally, my husband has a flexible schedule, so that’s double the love your baby (or babies) will receive! 💕🐶 My husband, pup, and I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex. We have a lanai where we have fresh sod that dogs can use for going potty any time they need in addition to their daily walks! Dogs are allowed on our furniture and our bed - everywhere! I am very flexible and can adapt to whatever your dog’s needs are.
About: Hello, my name's Rachel and I'm a 3rd year student at Drexel University. I have had pets since I was 10 years old. I just finished working at Penn Vet Working Dog Center in assisting to train working dogs that are trained for different disciplines such as; search and rescue, explosives, narcotics and medical detection. I'm experienced with very high energy and strong dogs. I believe I can handle and provide the best care for your dog. I believe both my profession and personal experience with dogs and cats has helped me gain the skills necessary to work with almost any dog. I have some experience caring for a blind and diabetic dog and feel it would not be an issue to aid those dogs with special needs.

Daniela was absolutely wonderful with Nemo! She was kind, dependable, and attentive, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about him. I felt completely comfortable knowing Nemo was in such capable hands. I highly recommend Daniela to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, and I would gladly book with her again!
Rebeca is responsive, communicative, and reliable. She understands different dog breeds and was able to meet my dogs needs, which made us feel comfortable and at ease while away. Rebeca is gentle and takes instructions well. If you’re looking for loving pet care while away, I’d recommend her and would book again in the future 😊
Jenna went above and beyond to make sure my Bubba boy was well taken care of! Her warm energy makes it so clear that she has a genuine love for animals and her curiosity for his routine helped me feel comfortable knowing she was open to adapting if needed. Bubba can be stubborn and tricky but quickly warmed up to her which is a testament to her as a person and as a professional pet sitter. 100/10, would absolutely book again :) Thank you so much!
Very grateful and appreciative of Chloe’s help with dropping by daily to check in on my dog while I was away on a last-minute vacation for over a week! She provided daily updates with pictures and is professional, courteous and kind. My neighbors also happened to meet her when she visited and said the same. She was a pleasure and easy-going to work with! Would recommend again.
Emily was absolutely wonderful with our two toy poodles! From the moment she met them, they took to her immediately, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and went above and beyond what we asked of her. It was clear from her updates and photos that she genuinely cared about our dogs and spent quality time with them during each drop-in visit. Thank you so much for everything!!
I rarely leave town but after meeting Janey I knew my old gal would be in great hands. Every walk came with photos of my baby and they gave me peace of mind that it was OK to be out of town for the weekend. Janey made the entire experience seamless and even fun Her attention to detail and positive attitude was what my family needed. 10 out of 10 would recommend and rebook again.... that ryhmed btw. Lol... Great job again and we hope to see you soon. Love J S and B
Sonja was such a great sitter. My pups were looked after and cared for while I was on an international trip and I had to have her look in on them last minute. She was very responsive and kept me updated the entire time. Will definitely reach out for any future trips!🐶😊

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Honolulu choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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 Meet & Greet .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
