“Alice provided wonderful care to my dog and 2 cats. She went above and beyond from start to finish. The regular updates gave me complete peace of mind — it was clear our animals were happy, comfortable, and in great hands. She also treated my home with total respect. Everything was exactly as I left it when I returned. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibility seriously. We will absolutely book her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and caring pet sitter.”
“Amber was great! She’s very communicative and is good about providing updates. We have a really anxious dachshund who needs a lot of attention, and Amber was patient & attentive throughout learning our pup’s needs. She was respectful of our home during her stay and came across as an experienced pet-sitter. I was nervous about having someone new watch my dog and my house, however, Amber’s calm demeanor and experience as a sitter brought comfort. Definitely recommend!”
“Madison watched my 2 dogs while we took a long weekend in Kaua'i. It was the first time we left our dogs with someone who was not a friend or family and she was amazing! We got pictures daily and the dogs loved her! We will for sure be using Madison again!”
“Have used John about 5 times now and absolutely love his service and how he treats my dogs . He’s great with them and goes above and beyond to take care of them . This was the first time we left both of our pups for an entire week and he kept us informed the entire time of when he was there and what our furbabies are up too ! We appreciate him and what he does and 1,000% would recommend him to all of our friends and family !”
“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 :)!”
“Michelle was extremely kind and had great communication, kept me updated on my dogs overall status throughout the day. Was also very flexible with her times and scheduling. Would highly recommend and I would book her again.”
“My dog is on five different types of medications to address her irritable bowel and her arthritis. The doses cannot be missed and have to be administered on a strict schedule. Over the years, my dog has learned how to hide the pills in her mouth then spit them out when you’re not looking. If she misses her medications - especially the ones for irritable bowel - she gets sick very quickly and will get diarrhea. Sometimes violent and frequent diarrhea. So I was quite nervous about leaving her with people who weren’t familiar with her issues and her tricks. But Karen and Tony handled her like pros. How do I know? Because I came home to a healthy dog who showed no signs of having missed any meds. I can’t thank them enough for taking such good care of my Coco. Oh, and bonus, they are respectful sitters who left my home just as I had left it. They even laundered the sheets! Thank you, Karen and Tony, for caring for Coco and letting me enjoy my trip without worry. They are pros.”
About: I’m a reliable and experienced pet sitter with over 10 years of hands-on care for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, fish, and multi-pet households. I’ve completed stays ranging from a few days to over two weeks, and I’m comfortable managing multiple pets at once while keeping each one safe, happy, and on routine. What sets me apart is my experience across all life stages—from energetic puppies who need structure and patience to senior pets who require gentle care, attentiveness, and consistency. Having cared for my own senior dog as well as others, I understand the extra level of compassion and awareness older pets need. I prioritize clear communication, reliability, and treating every pet like they’re my own. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM, but I’m available for pet care in the evenings and fully open on weekends. I build pet visits into my daily routine after work and dedicate my weekends to providing attentive, flexible care. I provide attentive, reliable care in your pet’s familiar environment, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and routine at all times. I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly how you left it while maintaining clear communication and updates you can trust. My goal is to create a calm, stress-free experience where both you and your pets feel completely at ease.
“Lei is a true animal lover at heart, you can just tell from how happy and excited she was to care for our pup. She was a reliable and trustworthy care taker for our dog and home while we were off island. She made sure to communicate well about our pup and home. Our pup was happy and seemed to have a great time with Lei. I would highly recommend her for house/pet sitting or any other needs.”
“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!”
“We were elated with their enthusiasm and attention to detail with our dog Rufus. He fell in love with their every instantly! Great communicators. Reliable. Timely. Can’t wait to book again.”
“Alyson was lovely!! She really took care of my baby with a bunch of walks and snuggles. She constantly sent photos and I felt like Lincoln (our pup) was in the best of hands!! Thank you so much!! Highly recommend!!”
About: Since childhood I've had pets of all shapes and sizes. Let me care for your pet as you would do. They are ohana and deserve the very best! I'm currently working part-time and am home for the majority of time most days. Occasionally I do have to go into the office for 4 hour periods. I will visit or stay with your pet in your home. I will walk them as requested. Provide multiple potty breaks throughout the day. Clean drinking water will always remain accessible, and the feeding schedule will follow your directions. Leave me with clear instructions and I will make sure that they are safe, comfortable and happy while you are away.
“Janey is an absolute gem! She recently cared for our beloved cat, Davey, while we were away, and we couldn’t be more pleased with her service. From the start, she was incredibly punctual and followed through on every commitment she made. Janey ensured Davey was well-groomed, kept her food and litter box impeccably clean, and maintained a consistent routine, which gave us such peace of mind. We especially appreciated the frequent updates—Janey sent us multiple photos and videos, keeping us informed and reassured. Her sincerity and honesty were evident in every interaction, and her genuine love for animals shone through. My husband and I are so grateful to have found someone as kind-hearted and reliable as Janey. We felt completely at ease knowing Davey was in her care. I wholeheartedly recommend Janey to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dedicated pet sitter. Once you meet her you will know she’s the right fit! Thank you Janey for all that you did! We love you!”

Ashley was great with our 4 month and 8 year old Goldendoodles while house sitting for us and even did so on short notice. Managing a puppy is never easy and she did a wonderful job. We came home to a clean house and felt the house was safe with Ashley staying in it. She kept us up to date with great photos while we were away too. Highly recommend Ashley for any dog walking or other sitting services !
Gabby was wonderful with our anxious dog. He takes some time to warm up to new people, but she was patient, calm, and clearly made him feel comfortable. She sent thoughtful updates and photos that gave us peace of mind, and it was obvious he really liked her. We’re so glad we found Gabby and absolutely plan to use her again in the future.
We love Jackie! We have used her in the past and she will always be our first pick. We recently lost one of our dogs and the other was definitely feeling his absence. Jackie took great care of him and he seemed to come out of his funk while she was here. She gave frequent daily updates and left our house in great condition.
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!
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.
