“Katara-Riana took such good care of my kitty and home. She is very competent and I didn’t worry at all leaving my cat in her care. I can’t wait to book with her again!”
About: I grew up with a mom who had a passion for fostering animals, especially those that needed a little extra TLC. I got to grow up taking care of dogs and cats of all ages, and would love to take care of yours as well. Now that I am 28 and have my own house, I don’t have any dogs or cats as my husband is allergic. Getting to watch your pet in whatever capacity will be a treat for me and hopefully for them! I work remotely 4 days a week until 4:00pm, so housesitting during the day is an option as well as dog walking after 4:00pm or on the weekends. I am also open to early morning (before 8:00am) walks. I am able to follow any directions for housesitting and am adept at identifying signs of stress or needs of animals. I have walked dogs (and cats!) of all sizes since I was 6, and have taken a dog walking training course. I treat every animal as if they were my own, so you may have to worry about me spoiling them.
“Rebecca was awesome as always! I really appreciate her great communication, with photos and/or videos every day so I know my baby is doing well. Rebecca house sat for me this time and took care of everything (watering plants, feeding fish, collecting mail) and I didn't have to worry about a thing. Always highly recommend!”
“Alexa is a great sitter whom I highly recommend! She was so kind and amazing to work with! She sent photos and updates of Ari and made sure to keep in contact with me while I was gone. She communicates flawlessly and is extremely responsible. Definitely asking her to come again!!”
“Kira was very honest about her availability due to her regular job, and arrived promptly as promised in between work hours to watch my big baby. She followed my instructions and dog’s routine carefully, and went above and beyond with extra physical therapy exercises I had left, as well as taking excellent care of my house while she was sitting. She kept me well updated while I was gone, and even left detailed notes of how each day went for me to see when I returned. It was so comforting to know that my baby was in such good hands while I was gone, and I will definitely try to book her again in the future!”
“Shalyn was fantastic! She stayed in my home with my pup while I was away. She was a respectful house guest, and took great care of my pup! She sent me updates and pictures daily, so I knew how my pup was doing. I never worried about my pup while I was away because Shalyn engendered so much trust and confidence with me. I will definitely book with Shalyn again to watch my fur baby!”
“It's hard trusting a stranger with your fur babies but Ryan did a wonderful job and made us feel safe to leave them! She took care of our home and 2 dogs and we absolutely will be booking our dogs for a month with her because we trust her completely! Thank you!”
“Karen was terrific house sitting our two doggies for one week. I felt reassured with the updates and photos she sent while we were away. The girls were in great spirits when we returned, and the house was in good condition. I highly recommend Karen!”
“I was worried as a first timer on this App, but, Toni was great with our two fur babies Elsa and Guero. Toni fed them, played with them and reached out with updates to keep us informed. Would definitely book in the future 😀”
About: I am a dog person who lives on a 2 acre farm. I have owned and cared for animals all my life including: dogs of course, horses, cows, rabbits, cats, etc. I spend almost all my time outdoors with the wild creatures of the world. I am retiring from a career in emergency services and would like to hang out with some nice pets in my spare time. I speak and understand dog language and your dogs will love me. I’m working on cat communication 😉. Cats like me but dogs LOVE me. I am retired and spend my free time caring for people and pets. Pet care has been a daily part of my life for 40 years. Ideal pet care in my home is free range, inside and out. We have a fully fenced 2 acre farm where your pet can follow us around or explore on their own. Pets, kids, and guests, are treated as part of the family. I can provide food, basic training, and attend to some special needs or restrictions at additional cost if needed. I will provide a friendly, supportive and welcoming atmosphere to all dogs.
“Alandra is great! She took excellent care of the doggies and the house. She was very responsible and did everything we asked for, the dogs looked very happy with her and so we are.”
About: I have taken care of multiple dogs and cats constantly throughout my life, in addition to tadpoles (eventually frogs), rodents, and rabbits, and I also have experience bottle feeding kittens and puppies. I am currently semi-retired and when I do work, it is not often and usually no more than 6 to 8 hour days, and no more than 3 days a week. In my home, dogs and cats are allowed on furniture; my own pets in addition to boarders always flock to my bed to sleep next to me at night. Pets can be fed separately or together, your preference; playtime and toys are frequent.
“Our dog really seemed to enjoy her time with Sara! We don't leave Lili alone often, so we appreciated Sara sending us updates. We'll definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“Fabulous hem and doggie sitter. Megan is prompt and reliable and gave us daily updates. We are so grateful she took such good care of our babies.”
“Second time we’ve had Arianna watch our fur babies. She’s great and communicates often to keep us updated. She even left the dogs some toys and treats. She’s amazing and we will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Nicole is my best Rover Doggie caretaker, and we had many. She is super responsible and truly cares about our dogs and our home. Her communication is excellent, she gave us peace of mind and put a smile on my face during and after our trip. I highly recommend Nicole.”
About: When it comes to pet feeding, I understand the importance of sticking to your pet's regular feeding schedule and ensuring they receive the proper care and attention. I'm also diligent with mail collection, making sure your important deliveries and correspondence are kept safe until your return. With my experience as florist's assistant, I take great pride in caring for plants, ensuring they receive the right amount of water and sunlight. I'm currently self-employed and working as a freelance video editor, but my schedule is open enough for me to monitor your residence daily, or even stay overnight if needed. Back when I still cared for my dog, I would let him wander around the house as he was house broken, but I still kept a small fence to block him off from the side of the house with the bedrooms and bathrooms. I fed him once a day and let him run around our back yard for 1-2 hours daily and had him go on walks every weekend for at least half an hour around the neighborhood in Pearl City.
“Malcom did a terrific job taking care of our two dogs and the rest of the house. His communication was excellent and timely. I would highly recommend him for your dog and house sitting needs.”
“Kristi is a very kind and expert dog sitter. Our Australian shepherd can be difficult at times with strangers, and Kristi was wonderful with her. They went on excursions to the beach and had fun playing together. I suspect our dogs might have been a little sad when we came home.”
About: I am experienced at caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and ages. I grew up on a small farm with 3 dogs, 2 cats, a horse, a pig and many chickens. I am currently a college student working to pay for tuition. As I am not able to have pets on campus, I am more than happy to care for your furry friends! I am an advocate for animal protection and healthy living for domesticated pets. I am prepared to help your pets to stay active, engaged and in good spirits. Please inquire about specific services. I am willing to walk, bathe, and play with your pets. Mahalo for visiting my page. Please feel free to reach out! I am available for petsitting Monday and Wednesday morning/afternoons between 10am-4pm. I am also available for all day/overnight sitting on the weekends Friday-Sunday. I can walk pets in the evening after 5pm on Monday-Tuesday and Thursday-Sunday. I ONLY offer care for pets in their own homes. I can provide basic pet training using positive reinforcement and crate training. I can walk pets for 1/2 mile-2 miles depending on size and physical necessity. I am also willing to maintain litter boxes and/or backyards. Feeding and water schedules will be consistent and specific to your pet's diet.
