“I would highly recommend Ky for all of your pet sitting needs! She took care of our high maintenance pups while we were out of town for over a week. Both of our pups come with their own unique behavioral issues and Ky handled them like a pro. She sent us daily updates and left our place nice and clean. We will definitely be using her again!”

About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and have been a central part of my family and friendships. I currently live with five Australian Shepherds, three of whom have puppies, so I understand firsthand what it takes to give each animal individual attention and love. From newborn puppy care and socialization to managing a multi-dog household, I know how to keep pets safe, happy, and stimulated. You can trust that your pet won't just be looked after they'll be genuinely cared for. I currently am in a hybrid program so majority of the time I am at home doing school work from Monday through Thursday. I also am paddling in kailua on MWThF 5:30-7 pm with races on sundays. I am very dependable and will always give your pet the best care possible. I will treat them like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I will follow all feeding schedules and any special instructions you provide. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I will keep you updated with regular check-ins and photos so you always have peace of mind
“We used Veronica to house sit and to watch our cat and dog. Veronica communicate with us daily about our animals and sent us pictures. She was super friendly and listened to all of our needs in taking care of our animals. I would recommend Veronica and definitely will be using her again to watch our animals.”
“We have two grown dogs and a puppy, so Annabelle definitely had her hands full, but she did great. She stayed at our house. The dogs totally fell in love with her. Can’t wait to use her again.”

About: Have constantly dog sat for the past ten years of life as a side gig for friends and family. Just moved to North Shore from Utah so have nothing but time to take care of your dog in any which way. Very outdoorsy will be happy to walk with them all the time. Just moved to the North Shore of Oahu from Utah currently seeking employment options but as of right now am completely available any time currently to look after dogs. Constantly going on walks/runs so a furry companion would elevate my experience greatly. Will constantly be in the vicinity of your pet have a large front yard and constantly can walk and let them out to go potty. Treat pet owners houses with upmost respect and always clean up after myself and/or the pet.

About: As owner of Doggie Paddles for nearly 25 years,I'm confident, but not cocky regarding my ability to anticipate the needs of both pets and their owners. I've cared for every size dog from teacup to giant. Some impeccably trained, others not so much. I loved them all equally. I recognize while many pet sits are similar to each other, each pet brings his/her unique process in how they react to being away from their owner. I currently work from 830 am to 330 pm in an office in Temple Valley Monday through Friday. For cats, this shouldn't affect their care. For dogs, their mid-day visit would fall between my office hours. If for whatever reason the mid-day doesn't seem necessary then I won't perform one. Likewise if your in Kaneohe I can likely run over there. I'm a non-smoker and rarely cook in an owners kitchen. Privacy/security is important to me. I'm off the grid as far as socials for the safety of my clients and myself. I'm also not on vacation. While there's no job that makes me as happy as working with pets, I'm there for your fur-kids.

About: Aloha! I’m Morgana, a longtime Oʻahu local, lifelong animal lover, and someone who’s generally happiest around animals, the ocean, or both! I have a degree in Marine Science from UH Mānoa and have spent years working and volunteering with animal care and conservation organizations here in Hawaiʻi and abroad. Animals have always been a big part of my life, whether they’re furry, feathered, or swimming in the ocean. I’ve also spent time working in a veterinary setting, which has taught me to pay attention to the little things, like changes in an animal’s behavior, appetite, or energy. Every pet has their own personality and routine, and I really enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel happy, safe, and comfortable. Outside of work, I’m a creative person who loves music, , hiking, and reading. I’m just as happy going for a nice walk as I am having a quiet evening at home with a furry companion curled up nearby. I’ve also spent years managing and caring for private homes also a prior Airbnb host/owner so I understand how important it is to feel comfortable with someone in your space. I’m tidy, respectful, communicative, and always try to leave everyplace I go a little better than I found it. One of my favorite things about pet sitting is getting to know each animal’s little quirks and building a relationship with them over time. Whether your pet is a cuddle bug, a playful goofball, or a slightly suspicious cat who needs a little time to warm up, I’m happy to meet them where they are and my goal is pretty simple: happy pets :) and owners who can enjoy their time away without worrying about what’s happening back home. And yes, I’m always happy to send photos and little updates along the way! 🐾 I work a hybrid schedule here in Honolulu, so my mornings, evenings, and weekends are when I have the most flexibility for pet care. I enjoy starting and ending my day with some fresh air, a walk, and a little animal companionship! Some days/weeks I have the ability to work remotely other times I will go into the office. For overnight stays, I’m happy to keep pets comfortable in their own home and maintain their usual feeding, walking, and bedtime routines. I know every animal has different needs, so I always like to chat with owners beforehand to make sure my schedule is a good fit. I’m especially happy to build ongoing relationships with local families and become a familiar, trusted face for their pets. I think the best pet-sitting relationships start with good communication and a little trust on both sides! I’m always happy to arrange a meet-and-greet in person or virtual before booking so we can get acquainted, go over expectations, and most importantly, make sure your pet feels comfortable with me. Being local to Oʻahu makes this especially easy, and I love having the opportunity to meet families in person. When staying in someone’s home, I’m mindful of their privacy, belongings, and household preferences. I like to ask questions upfront rather than make assumptions, whether that’s about visitors, household rules, emergency contacts, or your pet’s favorite hiding spot. I’m also a big believer in keeping owners in the loop. I’m happy to share little photo updates, funny moments, and reassurance that everything is going smoothly. My goal is for you to feel like you’ve left your home and furry family members with a trusted friend, not a stranger.
“Colleen was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter. She was incredibly flexible with our schedule and consistently attentive, patient, and loving toward our pups. She truly went above and beyond by taking them on hikes, giving them plenty of walks, and making sure all of their individual needs were met so they stayed happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Her attention to detail really stood out, especially since she gave one of our dogs medication and made sure it was administered correctly. What also meant so much to us was her communication. Colleen provided daily check-ins and updates, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away from home. It was clear how much she genuinely cared about our dogs, and we felt completely confident knowing they were in such great hands. We would absolutely recommend Colleen to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and dedicated dog sitter, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Alondra! She stayed at our home for the weekend to take care of our dog, Molly, and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter. From the very beginning, Alondra was accommodating and professional. She came by ahead of time to meet us, get instructions, and pick up the keys, which helped us feel confident that everything would go smoothly. While we were away, she sent us daily updates, which gave us peace of mind knowing Molly was happy and well cared for. When we returned home, Molly was her happy self, and it was clear she had received plenty of love and attention. The house was also spotless—you honestly couldn't tell anyone had been there except for our happy pup waiting to greet us! What really stood out about Alondra was her genuine, warm spirit. She is kind, friendly, and easy to communicate with while also being dependable and professional. It's never easy to leave our sweet girl behind, but knowing Molly was in such caring hands made it much easier for us to enjoy our trip. We would absolutely book with Alondra again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to other folks looking for a sitter. Thank you, Alondra, for taking such great care of Molly and our home! We appreciate you.”

About: I would prefer to help you out with your cats or even small kittens) I adore to see how playful they are! I may give very good care for any kind of cats! I do work during weekdays and it will be a pleasure to take care your pet on weekends. Cats 🐈 are my favourite, we get connected right away! I can definitely be a great company for your cat!

“Rochelle is an A+ sitter! She took great care of our high energy German Shepherd, communicated clearly and regularly before and during the booking, and left our house spotless. Thanks Rochelle!”

About: *Location: Hau'ula, HI* Registered Nurse for 10 years. Competitive athlete for 20 years. Throughout my childhood I grew up with Dobermans, Bichon Frise and Standard Poodles. I have unconditional love for all dogs and all their personality. Some breeds I've watched over the last 6 months include Rhodesian Ridgeback, Pitbull mix, French Bull dogs and Standard Poodle. I've trained dogs to swim and even surf. I am comfortable with post operative care and administration of medication. Pet sitting experience also includes rabbits, cats, exotic birds and small reptiles. Happy to spend time with your pet at any time of the day. Starting next month my goal is to transition to provide full time pet exercise service to the community. I enjoy going to the beach and being outdoors which is something I have found most dogs to enjoy as well. I can do as little or as much exercising as you request and the pup can handle. If they just want to cuddle and cruise I'm well versed in that program as well.

“Giselle was simply wonderful! She sat for our two dogs over the weekend and kept us updated the entire time. She sent photos and updates and cared for our boys like they were hers!! 🐾”
About: I have had pets and the responsibilities of pet care all of my life. I grew up with a variety of pets, including Persian cats, boxers, pit bulls, cocker spaniels and french bull dogs. In 2021, my husband and I adopted our own dog, Summit. He is a pit bull hound mix from Kauai Humane Society and the world's biggest sweetie. My friends and family have trusted me for years to give affectionate, responsible care to their animals and homes. Since I work from home, I'm able to be around 24/7. I love a change of scenery, so leaving my home to stay in someone else's for a week or more is no problem at all, ensuring your pet has consistency. I'm affectionate and will make sure your pet has cuddles, play time, and all of their needs met and exceeded. I work from home and have completely open availability. As long as I have enough notice, any day or time works. I can accommodate up to 7 consecutive nights of caring for your dog in your home. If I watch your pets in my own home, we will need to ensure your pet and my dog are a good fit together. He gets along best with small dogs. I have a fenced in backyard. But if I watch dogs or cats in your home, then I'm good with any pets!
“Such a sweet, trustworthy person. We booked her last minute and she did great. Sent lots of photos with our pups, handled some house things that came up and overall very communicative and responsive!”

About: As a dedicated dog owner and animal lover, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment where pets receive the care, affection, and attention they deserve. I am responsible, dependable, patient, and attentive to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, companionship, or simply relaxing, I strive to make every experience comfortable and enjoyable. I understand the importance of following feeding schedules, maintaining routines, providing regular updates, and treating every pet like a member of my own family. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. I currently work independently with a flexible schedule, which allows me to make pet care a priority throughout my day. I have the freedom to adjust my availability to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship. Since I manage my own work hours, I can offer weekday and weekend availability, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care that fits your pet’s routine and gives you peace of mind while you’re away. As a dog owner myself, I understand that pets are family and deserve to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet with the same patience, affection, and attention I give my own dog, Leonidas. Whether caring for pets in my home or visiting yours, I prioritize a clean, safe, and comfortable environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and daily routines. I also believe communication is essential, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel connected and reassured. My priority is building trust, respecting each pet’s individual needs, and ensuring they receive quality care and companionship while their family is away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kaaawa
We had an amazing experience with Ky and highly recommend her! From the very beginning, she made us feel completely at ease. During our meet and greet, she asked thoughtful questions about Apollo and Harper's routines, personalities, preferences, and care. It was clear she genuinely wanted to get to know them and make sure she could provide the best possible care, which gave us so much confidence before we left. While we were away, she took wonderful care of Apollo and Harper, treating them with so much love, attention, and patience. We knew they were in great hands, and it gave us real peace of mind to be able to enjoy our trip without worrying. She also took excellent care of our home. We came back to a spotless house, and everything was exactly as we had left it. It's obvious she is responsible, trustworthy, and takes pride in caring for both pets and homes. We're so grateful for everything she did for Apollo and Harper and wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. If you're looking for someone who is caring, dependable, and truly goes above and beyond, we wholeheartedly recommend her!

The average cost of House Sitting in Kaaawa is $47 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $94 per night.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Kaaawa walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Kaaawa maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Kaaawa 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!
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 , 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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
