“Hugo had an amazing time. His first encounter to have a huge yard to play and explore. He definitely was spoiled. The family taking care of Hugo was awesome. They are trust worthy, under standing and accommodating . We also received daily updates and pics of Hugo’s progress which was really nice to get. We would definitely use them again and recommend his service .”
“This was our first time sending our dog off to a sitter, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything worked out. Kyrie and her family did a wonderful job watching Tuxedo, our boston terrier. We were gone for a whole week. She sent daily photo updates, which gave us peace of mind. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter for their pet!”
“So appreciative of Halina watching my cat Johnnie while I traveled. She put me at so much ease with it being my first long trip away from the island and made me feel like Johnnie would be loved and safe while gone, which she 110% was. Communication was super fast and always helpful and informative and Johnnie was always in good spirits in videos. I will certainly be booking again with her 😊”
“Tracey was amazing with watching our Timmer. She sent pictures everyday of him enjoying himself. He looked like he had a great time. Thank you again Tracey”
“Emma is absolutely fantastic, she is very communicative and always sends photos of my Natsu to keep me updated on how she’s doing. It was great to see how happy Natsu was to be able to have some more space to run around ar Emma’s place. Emma is very thorough and flexible as well, I will definitely rebook her in the future!”
“Jacque is always pleasant and loving as evidenced by the videos she sends. Kanani never seems stressed after her stay there. And there are other dogs there to interact with, although Kanani is more of a loner. Highly recommend Jacque to care for your dog.”
“Joel is the best, and is my first choice to take care of my girl while I'm away. My dog is shy and takes time to warm up. Not only is he patient with her but takes her on multiple walks to help her get comfortable.”
“Jess (and family) were absolutely fantastic with our pup while we were off island for nearly 3 weeks! Jess was wonderful with communication and provided updates as well as pictures and videos every single day. They spoiled our pup as if he was their own, and even took extra care on the 4th of July to ensure he wasn't too anxious. He was happy and energized when we picked him up! I can't recommend Jess enough!”
“Pei, what a professional. Our dog was in his care and we were so happy that we could go on a trip without having to worry about our dog that we love so very much. Pei communicated with us, and showed us how much knowledge he had with not only caring for our dog but what he offered as a dog trainer and dog whisperer. He met with us and our dog to ensure that we were all a fit to proceed with this interaction. I will forever take my dog to Pei anytime my family and I are out of town. He also let us know that we can utilize his skills to train our dog to be more balanced and this is exactly what we plan to do. Thank you Pei!!!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for more than 20 years and have always been the person friends and family trust with their pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, personalities, and energy levels, and I’m attentive to each dog’s individual routine and needs. I have a dog of my own, so I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone who is patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoys spending time with them. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I’d want for my own! My husband works from home and I work a few hours every day on campus, so someone is always here to keep an eye on the pups. We currently have a 7-year-old dog who is very gentle and loves canine company. We do multiple daily walks, scheduled feedings, and lots of snuggles! In my home, our lives revolve around our dog! It’s important to us to take walks out of the house, scheduled feedings, and playtime. We don’t have kids around, so we appreciate the energy and companionship of our dogs.
“Casey was awesome in welcoming our Kanalu to her home and introducing her to her two dobermans! We were very relieved to know that our puppy was in good hands! Her communication was instant and our questions answered on daily check-ins. Definitely recommend Casey for caring for your family dog!”
“Diana was amazing! She kept us updated on our dogs activities during their stay with her and her family. It's very obvious that she loves animals. We highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”
“"Johenid was amazing! Leaving my cat in a new place is always stressful, but her home was a total cat paradise—safe, quiet, and very welcoming. She gave my cat time to adjust and sent photos of him everyday. I could tell he felt right at home. Drop-off and pick-up were incredibly smooth. I will absolutely board him here again!"”
“Daylin did an amazing job taking care of my dog. I received regular updates, including videos and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. From the pictures, I could tell my dog was calm and happy, so I know Daylin took excellent care of him. Communication was also very efficient throughout the entire stay. Thank you so much! I highly recommend Daylin without hesitation.”
“Natalia is amazing! Our dogs had a seamless transition to her home, which she made so accommodating to the dogs she hosted. Natalia provided daily photos and updates of their adventures, which were all above and beyond! She was flexible when we thought our plans would be impacted by the Kona Low, every bit of communication was timely and thoughtful.”
“Christine did a wonderful job watching both our puppies and handling their different energy levels with ease. I was never worried at all with their stay and she kept us updated with pictures and what they were up to. Would definitely choose Christine over other sitters when booking my dogs!”
“Loved Shauna, great sitter! Our pup stay with Shauna for a month while we were on a long summer vacation and she made it very comfortable to leave our family member for so long! Shauna was kind, caring, kept me updated and sent pictures throughout. Annabel was so happy and well cared for while we were gone! Would recommend 👍🏼”
“Hailey and Ben were lifesavers taking our pup last minute and was so sweet about changes in plans. Sent daily pics and took good care of Gordo pup! Thank you guys!”
“Brody had a fantastic stay. He is one tired pup now and that can only be down to the incredible attention and playtime he got whilst with Jay and the family. They provided photos and videos frequently. Kept us up to date on anything important and gave Brody so much love and attention. I think he’s going to be missing his buddies for a while! Thank you for taking such good care of him 🐾”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Kaaawa on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 600 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kaaawa. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
98% of Kaaawa sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Kaaawa landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Kaaawa home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Kaaawa.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Kaaawa sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in HI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
