About: Hi, I’m Skyla! I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have a deep passion for their care and well-being. My mom is a veterinary technician, so I was lucky to learn about animal care from a young age. Over the years, at veterinary clinics i’ve gained hands-on experience with a wide range of dogs—from tiny Chihuahuas to large, energetic breeds. I’m comfortable working with all kinds of temperaments, whether your pup is high-energy or more laid-back. In addition to caring for my own pets (a Pit Bull, a Chihuahua, a few cats), I’ve also supported causes like the Street Dog Coalition by helping raise funds and awareness. When your pet is with me, I’ll make sure they feel loved, safe, and entertained—and I’ll send you lots of picture updates so you can follow along on all of our fun walks and adventures! I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry friend—feel free to reach out with any questions Pet care is currently my full-time job, and it fits perfectly into my daily routine. I dedicate all my time to providing the best care for pets. I provide a safe, loving home with a big yard and pool. My two friendly dogs ( pit-bull and chihuahua) can keep visiting pets company during their stay.
“We love Haunani! She is friendly, responsive and very professional. This was our first time using her for our dogs and house sitting, and she was great! Right before we left on our trip, one of our dogs developed a medical issue and she handled it very well. She kept us updated with photos and reports, so we were able to relax completely while away. I highly recommend her!”
“Josh is the best with our husky Roxy! We went away for an extended period for the first time since getting our dog and were nervous to leave her since she can be anxious in unfamiliar situations. Josh took special care to make sure Roxy was at ease. He followed all of her care instructions perfectly and sent wonderful photos of their walks along with detailed updates. His passion for working with animals enabled him to build a strong bond with Roxy quickly and we could tell she was so happy to have him as a new friend. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Roxy was so well taken care of while we were away. We highly recommend Josh :)!”
“Lexie took great care of our girls while we were away for our wedding! She was attentive and very easy to work with. We will definitely be booking with her again for our future travels!”
“Matt house sat with our dog Alfie for 2 weeks and kept him active with long walks, runs and trips to the beach. Alfie liked Mike as soon as he met him. Mike kept our home clean and even took care of the garden. We hope he'll be available next time we travel.”
“Nancy was great! My cats absolutely loved her. She was communicative throughout the entirety of our trip sending cat updates every day. She left our house clean and tidy. We would definitely book again and recommend her to our friends.”
“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!”
“Having just moved on-island and required to travel back to the mainland for an important family event, I was skeptical about using this service to find the right dog-sitter. I'm so grateful that I was able to find Amber! She did a preliminary visit to meet the dogs and see our house and there was an immediate connection. Amber has a very calming energy and made us feel comfortable that everything would be taken care of while we were gone. She stayed at the house with the dogs, took them on walks, and sent us pictures. She left the house exactly as she found it, meaning you couldn't even tell she'd been there - very neat and tidy. I would highly recommend Amber and I will look to rebook with her when my next trip is finalized.”
“Joey cared for our two dogs in our home while we were away on an extended trip. He was communicative and sent updates/photos of our dogs and home. We returned to a clean home and happy pups. We recommend Joey and will definitely book with him again!”
“I cannot recommend Alyssa enough! She watched my dog Riley for a full week and went above and beyond. She took Riley on tons of walks, played with her endlessly (which is saying a lot because Riley is very energetic!), and even started teaching her new tricks. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup who was absolutely exhausted in the best way possible haha. I felt completely at ease knowing Riley was in such great hands. I already booked with her again!”
“I am very appreciative that Karen was able to take over for another sitter. She was at a disadvantage because we did not get to meet before the stay started. So, she missed out on the intricate details of each dog and their behavior. But, she was caring and professional and did what was required. Also left the house so clean and even vacuumed! During the stay we gave her some tips to control one of our anxious dogs. She followed the instructions and made the rest of the visit much better. I would definitely recommend her.”
“We were so pleased with Melissa’s stay with our pets. She is reliable, communicated well with us while we were away by sending photos and updates. We also appreciated her flexibility when our travel plans changed last minute. We came home to happy dogs and a well kept home!”
“Jackie watched our two French bulldogs for an evening and was wonderful! My frenchies are sweet but can also be a handful, so we are so grateful for Jackie’s patience. My younger pup requires medication at a certain time and has a risk of seizures, and she handled all of that perfectly. She gave lots of updates throughout the night, which we appreciated. Thank you Jackie!”
“This was our first time having a house sitter to watch our dog and two cats in our home so naturally we were pretty nervous about the experience, however after meeting with Aiyana we felt assured and knew we could trust her from the get go, especially getting to know her and her experience. our animals can be a handful but she showed a calm and patience with them the second she met them. She kept great care of our house as well as being super responsive to all of our check-ins while we were gone, sending pictures, updates, and we came home to a happy, healthy fur family with our home just as we left it. Highly recommend her as a trustworthy, reliable, and responsible person to have around, will be reaching back out to her for our next out of town trips!”
About: Hi! I’m Olivia. I’ve been pet and house sitting for about 5 years alongside my career as a labor & delivery and NICU nurse. I also have two furry family members of my own- a lab mix named Zeke and a black cat named Binx. Most of my experience has been live-in pet and home sitting when families leave town for work, vacation, etc. However, I’m happy providing daily visits as well :) I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and chickens, with the majority being dogs. I have cared for puppies, seniors, and dogs with medical conditions that require special attention, such as prescription medications and chemotherapy appointments. While I am new to Rover, I do have a Trusted Housesitters profile with reviews from my past clients. Since I recently relocated to Hawaii, I decided to create a Rover account as well to expand my network in hopes of continuing to care for pets in my new home! I am currently working full-time as a nurse at Kapiolani Medical Center, which is 3 12-hour shifts per week. On my off days & nights, I am fully available to provide pet care. While I am unable to bring additional pets into my home in Kailua, I am happy and willing to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I have a car and am able to commute as needed.
“Taylor was great! She sent me pictures of my baby while I was gone. Fast to respond when I reached out. She also washed my sheets and towels so I have something to use when I get home! Thanks Taylor!”
About: I've been working in the animal welfare field both full time and part time for the past 9 years in animal behavior and training. I started volunteering in 2010, and have loved caring for and training animals since I was a kid. I now provide pet caring services (walking, feeding, med administration etc) along with behavior consultations/training for both cats/dogs (specializing in reactivity, fear, anxiety, leash walking, basic obedience training etc.) My favorite dog breeds include herding and working dogs, but I love them all! I also have a special place in my heart for cats, as I've had quite a few throughout my life of all temperaments and medical issues. I work remotely from home and have flexibility during the week and weekends to help take care of your animals. My availability can range from 7am-9pm+ per day. I can also do overnight stays if needed. I take the utmost care with ensuring the safety of my own animals and those in your home. Whether through carefully entering and exiting a home, securely closing doors and gates, properly collaring/harnessing/leashing animals, and being watchful of door darters.
About: I have a genuine love of all animals, and I would love your pet as if it was my own. I have the most experience with dogs and cats. I’m generally home at about 2pm each week day. I am available to walk or feed your pets in the afternoon and weekends as needed. I offer dog/cat feeding and play time, plus dog walking. I will spend time with your pet so he/she does not feel lonely each day.

Alyssa was a last-minute overnight, in-our-home pet sitter, and she was excellent! Our usual non-Rover helper was sick and we scrambled! She was so prompt that we were able to communicate almost immediately, and she was very respectful. I felt heard while voicing my concerns, and respected when my young child woke up and I had to interrupt our conversation. She is promptly communicative, she left the home in better shape than she found it, and most importantly, she took perfect care for our two little baby dogs, with receipts :)! I will definitely reach out for any future trips, as she’s professional and trust-worthy for your fur babies!
Kayla was EXCELLENT with our pitbull Percy. He loved staying with her and she sent updates and pictures regularly. She stayed in our house while we were gone for a week and even helped take out trash and kept the place tidy. Would absolutely recommend and use her in the futures.
Joey was absolutely fantastic with our Frenchie, Lilly! He watched her for 13 days and went above and beyond the entire time. We got frequent updates and amazing pictures that showed just how happy and comfortable she was. Joey kept us informed about everything going on with Lilly, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he watches. We couldn’t recommend him more highly — we’ll definitely be booking with him again!
We were so pleased with Melissa’s stay with our pets. She is reliable, communicated well with us while we were away by sending photos and updates. We also appreciated her flexibility when our travel plans changed last minute. We came home to happy dogs and a well kept home!
Adiella was wonderful, we received regular updates and our neighbors mentioned that Ghost was very happy on his daily walks with her. She also managed a very challenging situation with an area wide power outage at our house. Highly recommend and we will use her again.
Jackie watched our two French bulldogs for an evening and was wonderful! My frenchies are sweet but can also be a handful, so we are so grateful for Jackie’s patience. My younger pup requires medication at a certain time and has a risk of seizures, and she handled all of that perfectly. She gave lots of updates throughout the night, which we appreciated. Thank you Jackie!
Nicole is the best dog/house sitter we’ve ever had. We travel a fair bit and have struggled with finding someone we trust and who cares for our pups like we do. Nicole seems to GENUINELY love what she does. She has an amazing attitude, is a problem-solver, is responsible, kind, gracious, and our dogs love her. I’m impressed with her efforts to go above and beyond to meet the needs of our high energy dogs. She also cared for our home so well. Her communication is amazing! We are SO GRATEFUL. We hope Nicole is willing to come back! 🥰
