“5 Stars – Truly the Best Dog Sitter! We are beyond grateful for the incredible care our three dogs received while we were away. From the start, it was clear our sitter was not only experienced but genuinely kind and attentive. She took the time to get to know each dog’s unique personality and needs, and it immediately put us at ease. We got regular updates and adorable photos that gave us so much peace of mind—it really felt like our dogs were on their own little vacation! It was obvious how much love and effort went into every part of their care. Reliable, thoughtful, and truly a gem—this is someone who goes above and beyond. We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book again or recommend them to anyone looking for top-tier pet care.”

“Ryan was great with my little "anxious" tender guy, who loved having someone work online at home with him all day! He took good care, gave medicine, and reported in with pictures daily. I came home to a healthy, happy pup and a clean house!! Lyn”

“Hayley has been amazing! She was able to accommodate our situation on short notice and was incredibly effective in communicating throughout. We received constant updates with photos and notes about Coco, which gave us total peace of mind. Her care, attention to detail, and reliability are top notch. We trust her completely and feel so lucky to have her looking after Coco. Highly recommended!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and energy levels. From wiggly goofy little puppies learning the basics to senior pups with all the wisdom and grey whiskers to match. My time volunteering at the animal shelter taught me how to build trust with shy or nervous dogs. I’m patient with training reinforcement, leash manners, and introducing new environments, (with the owner's permission, of course). I'm also experienced with pups who need a little extra care, including medication administration. Whether it’s long walks, play sessions, or quiet companionship, I tailor care to each dog’s personality and needs, so they feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I currently work part time from home, which gives me the flexibility to care for your pets with plenty of attention during the day. As I am very flexible, we can create a schedule that works best for you and your loved ones. I’m happy to spend quality time with your animals, whether that means playtime, walks, or just relaxing companionship while you’re away. I live in a condo with plenty of space and a large lanai, perfect for pets to relax or play. I’m committed to ensuring any pet in my care feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I create a pet friendly environment by setting up a quiet, dedicated area with their favorite toys and bedding. If your pet is rambunctious and needs to burn off some energy, I’m happy to work with that too. I keep harmful items and hazards out of reach and supervise pets closely at all times. When caring for pets in their own homes, I follow your routines carefully to maintain consistency and reduce stress. I build trust through gentle handling, patience, and clear communication with both pets and their owners. Whether at my home or yours, your pet’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities.

“CJ was very reliable and communicative. He sent updates and photos that gave us peace of mind while we were gone. Best of all, he was genuinely excited about spending time with our dog Emme and did a great job meeting her needs and following our guidelines/preferences. We definitely hope that he will take care of Emme again (and Emme hopes so too).”

“Ashley did a wonderful job taking care of our pup and house while we were gone. Our pup needed some extra care after having surgery and she did an excellent job administering her meds and giving her the care she needed. Thanks Ashley!”

“Christian is our current dog sitter. He is very patient and loves animals. My dog is very happy with him. I highly recommend.”

I’m dedicated to providing your pets with plenty of attention, playtime, and love, ensuring their safety and happiness while you’re away. I’m available for drop-in visits during evenings and weekends, ensuring your pets are well-cared for and given plenty of attention. Whether they need feeding, a walk, or just some company, I’m committed to providing consistent care to keep them happy and relaxed while you’re away. I prioritize your pet’s well-being and comfort by caring for them in their familiar environment and routine.

I respect your home and ensure it’s left just as I found it, giving you peace of mind while ensuring your furry friends are happy and safe.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was young, helping family and friends whenever they traveled or had busy schedules. Whether it was just for the day or a few weeks, I’ve always loved making sure their pups felt safe, happy, and well cared for. A couple of years ago, I had the incredibly rewarding experience of fostering a rescue dog here on the island—and that’s when I decided to take my passion for pet care more seriously. When my neighbor had to move away, I stepped in to care for her pup and eventually found her a loving forever home. Caring for dogs is something I genuinely love and take pride in. I have a very flexible schedule this summer while I’m on break from school, which allows me to spend plenty of quality time with your pup! I'm available for frequent check-ins, walks, and extended stays to make sure your dog is well cared for. While I’m currently exploring a part-time job on the side, pet care is a top priority, and I remain very open and committed to my availability. I live up in the valleys with plenty of other furry friend owners! It is a calm area with a super friendly community! I also have a little yard they can use for quick potty breaks.

“Excellent and trustworthy! Felt very comfortable while we were away. Received updates and pictures which made us even more relaxed while on vacation. Kathaleen even watered a few plants for us! Highly recommend.”

“Sasha was great! Our cat and dog were thrilled to have her for company. She was attentive and quick to respond to messages. She also gave good photo/video updates.”

About: I've been around dogs since I was a little kid. My family always had a dog, and many of my fondest childhood memories involve spending time with and taking care of them. When I started college was the first time I had full responsibility of taking care of my dad’s two dogs while he was away on a trip. Caring for two dogs with their distinct needs while juggling the demands of college coursework was a challenge especially as this was for an extended period of time. However, as I began to understand their unique needs and develop a routine that provided the necessary care and support they needed, the process became more manageable. Recognizing the importance of being attentive to their needs and ensuring their well-being was crucial. This experience not taught me how to be on top of their needs and give them the proper care and attention, but spending one-on-one time with them also helped me bond with them even more. At this moment I realized my love for dog sitting. I work a part time job during the day. Though am available for overnight dog sitting. Able to give morning walks, before I leave for my job at 11am. Finish work at 4:30pm and am able to give afternoon and night time walks/feeding. Please let me know if you have more questions. I prefer to care for pets in the clients home. I feel that this make your pet more comfortable, as they will be in both a familiar and safe environment.

“Our two giant bears 🐼 & 🐻 (St Bernard's) were so very well taken care of with Dominic! As a helicopter dog mom, I'm very particular. And having two hip dogs with very different needs who spend all day everyday with us work from home parents, I couldn't have asked for a better sitter experience or trip away (at full ease). We'd love for him to stay with our pups again! 💯”

About: Dogs of all sizes and breeds were a part of my family growing up. I've pet-sit for friends on trips, including caring for a senior dog, and multiple pets (2 pups and 3 cats) at once in the same home. I've fostered a few times, including a puppy being treated for heartworm but, my current place doesn't allow me the opportunity to care for animals. I'm able to provide care for your pets in your home and neighborhood. If they're on a special diet or require a specific feeding method, please let me know. I also have experience in giving baths, applying treatments, and administering medication. When taking pups on walks, I like to be mindful of the time and temperature so the pups aren't walking on burning asphalt. I also like to be mindful of cleaning up after your pups, so we're not leaving a mess for the community if we can help it. I can check-in on, play, feed, walk, and give attention to your pups. I'm available during the week and on the weekends, including nights. If you require walks &/or feeding outside of my available neighborhoods, there might be some additional fees depending on distance and time of day (if applicable). I'm able to pet sit in your home so that your pups are more comfy and relaxed. I like to provide a calm atmosphere for them, giving them lots of attention based on their needs, and try my best to stick to their routines. I'm available to stay the night or do drop-ins. I'm not a partier, and believe in taking care when handling other's things so rest assured that your home is in good hands.

“Motomi provided exceptional care for my 12-year-old fur baby, Sammie, during my recent trip. Given Sammie’s age and need for daily medication, I appreciated Motomi’s attentiveness and the tender love she showed. She regularly sent photo and video updates upon request and was proactive in addressing any questions or concerns. Initially hesitant to welcome a stranger into my home, I was relieved when Motomi followed my instructions and even tidied up before leaving. I will definitely reach out to her again for future pet-sitting needs.”

About: New to Rover? Please ask for my promo code for $20 off when checking out. :) Aloha! I am a working professional living in Honolulu (Kakaako) and I work from home so your beloved pet has more attention and care than usual. I am a dog lover and have grown up with dogs my entire life. I will definitely be a dog parent one day but my doggy clients are amazing and keep me quite busy so I’m happy with this at the moment! Your dog is the only dog in my home when I am dog sitting. I like to provide 1:1 attention and provide a little more premium experience for your dog. This is why my rates are a bit higher. My clients like to say their dog is going on vacation too when they are with me! :) Your dog has my utmost attention, and I ensure they are well-loved and cared for as if they were my own dog. I am responsible, communicative, and respectful. I am happy to follow all the rules you have set at your home (ex: dietary restrictions, being allowed on bed or not). You can look forward to receiving pictures of your pet while you’re away and be reassured they are comfortable and well-cared for. I will always notify you immediately if there is an emergency regarding your pets. I will consider littermates or two dogs from the same household or if they are friends as long as they are both house-trained and do not exhibit aggression towards other dogs or people, since it’s more difficult to control two dogs while on a walk. Owners: Please be upfront about your dog and any issues, such as separation anxiety, no leash training, or aggression towards other dogs, or people. It's helpful to have this information and expectations when dog-sitting. :) Note: I live in an apartment building and, unfortunately, cannot care for a dog that is extremely aggressive towards other dogs or people. Mahalo for understanding. Drop-off: I can be flexible, but I may need to schedule some meetings outside of work hours. Pick up: I prefer around the same time they were picked up, but am flexible, given it's an hour or two. If it's 3 hours or more, a surcharge may apply; Rover will calculate the rate automatically. I work from home, so I am home most of the time with your dog. Dogs may be left alone during work hours for a few hours at most. On weekends, I either take your dog with us on outdoor excursions (if permitted). If your dog has separation anxiety, I try to take them with us, or I stay home and make a weekend to stay in. I live in a low-rise condo/apartment building and they have access to my whole apartment. I will always notify you immediately if there is an emergency regarding your pets. If no emergency vet is listed, I will go to the nearest available one. I typically walk dogs 3-4x a day minimum: first thing in the morning, a mid-day walk, after work, and before bedtime. If permitted, I will take them to the beach or hiking, or the nearby dog park. I always follow the owner's feeding schedule and other rules so as not to break any habits at home (ex: being allowed on furniture or not). I specialize in older/senior dogs so I know how to administer medications (oral medications, eye drops, and injections like insulin shots). I have also taken care of rescue dogs with trauma and understand dogs with anxiety or fear of things like loud noises, fireworks, etc. I can easily crate your dog if needed. If they tend to chew on things or go through the trash, let me know, and I can prevent that from happening. :)

About: I've been taking care of dogs since last year. My neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, and take care of their pets whenever they go on vacation. I'm currently applying to work at various hotels. I'm avaliable after 2 pm on weekdays, and I'm also avaliable on the weekends, but it varies depending on what I have going for me that week. In my home I feed, and walk our dog. I play with him. and make sure he gets the proper attention he needs. I also make sure he is secure at night. When walking him, if he wants to meet other dog friends on the way, we do that, but I make sure both dogs are calm and happy before engaging.
