Dog Walkers in Kailua Kona, HI

About: My name is Lyrics. I grew up with a family dog which we had 17 years, it was amazing then I had a service lab for 12 years that was my puppy, R.I.P. she had breast cancer and sadly left me in 2015. I now have one rescue pup and he's very well trained from private lessons and from myself. He eats Hills plus some snacks. He always goes to work with me, non barker. Before work we go to the dog beach for an hour and a half then another hour walk before bed. On the days off, we hike and go boarding, he has great balance on the paddle board. I love to train him in sign and spend time with him, I'm hoping my pup gets to be friends with your pups. I'm available everyday for walks before 930a and after 830p for cooler ground and drop ins everyday before 9a, between 2-5, and after 8p. My pups are always in Positive reinforcement training vs obedience school, I think positivity helps them grow. We praise the good acts vs punishing the bad acts. I am willing to give your puppies free service dog training, organic snacks, and of course cuddle them. I own my pet store so I can work around needed times 75-5744 Ali‘i Dr ste145 right in town so easy to drive anywhere I prefer early walks before 9a after 8p for heat on the feet but can anytime if your dog has booties or shaded paths near home. Drop ins prefer before 9a, between 2-5, and after 8p. So they're not inside all day. I have a fenced in private yard but as well I use the dog walking large sidewalks around town. In your home I would leash inside to bring outside for walks. I have no criminal or civil record and I do not mind if you want cameras on me in your home in common areas. I also do not mind training on camera. I take lots of photos too for the furparent to enjoy. I do bring my dog w me after dogs have met and feel comfortable with each other. He's service dog trained. I usually don't leave home w o him. I babysit at my pet store too that's right in town so your Pup doesn't have to sit home alone 75-5744 Ali‘i Dr ste145

About: From having a pet dog, to dogsitting and catsitting countless times throughout my life, I’ve learned how to meet the needs of each animal- from puppies & kittens to the elderly of all different shapes and sizes! It’s important to me to make sure they’re getting enough love and care throughout the day. I believe taking care of a pet’s emotional needs is just as important as meeting them physically, so I do my best to make sure they’re staying happy and comfortable while they await the arrival of their parents later on :) My week availability is very open as I’m in between jobs, so I have a lot of free time to dedicate to pet lovin’ on Mondays-Fridays, especially between 9 am to 7 pm. I respect the space and property of others, so I do my best to take care of your pet in whatever way you see best fit, and in a way that respects the home I’m coming into.

About: Although I recently joined Rover, I have taken care of animals consistently for 3 years+ on the Islands with excellent references and past experiences. I moved 2 years ago to the Islands to pursue working with animals full time and follow my calling to be of service to animals in a deeper way. I am vegan and have been for 6 years now for my love and respect of animals. I also grew up with a dog and cat so have years of experience with them, including training my dog when he was a puppy ~ I have experience with puppies & kittens, adult dogs and senior dogs of all sizes. I also have experience with farm animals (horses, cows, pigs, sheep, goats, chickens, turkeys) I have administered medications to animals as well - I love to spend as much quality time as I can like going on long walks, riding to the beach together, and cozily working from home together so that they can feel loved and cared for while you are away🌺 I work full time online as a women’s coach and can work from anywhere - I can work my schedule around any needs or any special requests that you have for them - I want to keep them as comfortable as possible and staying close to their daily routines I take care of animals typically in the client’s home, always respecting your home and leaving it cleaner than I found it 🪷 I have also done other work around the house such as taking care of clients’ airbnbs, plant care, and am happy to take care of your garden or do any extra chores/tasks

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, and bunnies over the past 14 years. I've also fostered and sheltered 1-2 cats at a time for weeks while they were awaiting adoption. Most recently I spent 2 weeks housesitting and caring for 3 dogs of a family friend of ours, one of them being an elderly poodle who required special attention in diet and medicine, as well as needing help standing up in order to go outside. I love taking care of and creating bonds with our furry friends! Currently my schedule is very flexible and I can very easily work around your schedule. I work on my own time so any time of day/any day of the week works for me. I intend to treat your home and pets with the utmost respect and kindness. In and out at my scheduled times and leaving things as I found them. I also want to make sure your pet feels safe and happy, and that we have a lot of fun whenever we spend time together!

About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals, my love for pets is a lifelong devotion. I’ve shared my home and heart with dogs and cats throughout my life, and I’ve been a trusted pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. I have experience with animals of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—including senior pets and those needing extra tenderness or special care. In addition to hands-on experience, I bring a calm, grounded presence and a deep sensitivity to the emotional needs of animals. I’m trained in energy healing and often incorporate gentle, calming energy into my care when appropriate—helping pets feel safe, seen, and loved while their humans are away. My approach is intuitive, attentive, and heart-centered. I treat each pet as the unique soul they are, and I feel truly honored to care for them. I work from home a lot and I have the freedom to be available and present full-time. I’m devoted to being with your pet providing all their needs. I prefer to provide care in the clients home but I can also bring your pet to my home. I have a big yard and a deck that is fenced. Pets will are welcome.

“Caitlyn was great! Pickle, our dog really got along well with her. Caitlyn listened to everything that Pickle needs and we will definitely be using Caitlyn again for more walks!”

About: I have had many special bonds with many kinds of animals & I’ve always given them the love & kindness ALL animals deserve. I love training puppies to become the best doggie they can be! When my Jude was a puppy, I used “tricks-for-treats” method using hand signals & now that Jude lost her hearing she knows her commands only by my hand signals! I have taken care of a handful of elderly dogs and cats whom I know felt very safe and loved my company so much. Whenever I’m with any animal I always feel like I’m making an impact in their life and I shine my light on their beautiful hearts every time. They are my world 🌎 ❤️❤️❤️ Currently, I am open available anytime, day or night, rain or shine! Even last minute I will be available. My doggie approved house is filled with dog beds of all sizes, and dog crates if that’s what they like, & hardwood floor for cooling off. My yard is fenced in and surrounded by a forest of trees. Plenty of play toys and green grass for sunbaths! This is my passion…… I eat, sleep, & take care for animals. I’m very grateful for any furry friend to come into my life. Even if it’s just for a day ❤️ When I’m not busy with pets, I am the voice for the voiceless...I am a very active animal rights activist, I am a member of the Dominion action movement, I am very very passionate about all animals. My dream is to have my own animal sanctuary where every animal will love their life free just as our pets do. I will also find homes for homeless/abused/abandoned animals. My house is dog approved. I have a lot of toys and doggy beds & In my breezeway I have a dog ramp for elderly or injured dogs to use to get into my house.

About: Hi there! I’ve been caring for animals for over a decade and truly love what I do. I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and personalities — from tiny seniors who need a gentle routine to big, goofy pups who love adventure. I grew up around animals, have volunteered with local shelters, and have years of hands-on experience with everything from daily walks to administering medication and helping with special needs pets. I always focus on keeping pets comfortable in their own space and maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule for check-ins, walks, and in-home sitting. Friends and clients describe me as reliable, communicative, and incredibly patient. Whether it’s last-minute help, unique care instructions, or a pet who just needs a little extra love, I show up fully every time. I’d be honored to care for your fur family and make sure they feel happy, loved, and well taken care of. With a remote college schedule, I have the flexibility to be at home all the time, which allows me to devote my attention to watching pets through Rover. 🏠🐾 Whether it's weekdays or weekends, I can ensure that your furry friends receive round-the-clock care and companionship. I'll be able to tailor their routines to suit their needs, providing them with the love and attention they deserve while you're away. Your pets will have a caring and responsible companion by their side throughout the day! 🐶🐱💕 In my home, I provide a safe and nurturing environment for pets, ensuring they receive regular outdoor time, playtime, and ample attention throughout the day. When caring for pets in my client's home, I follow their specific instructions, maintaining their routine and providing the same level of love and care as if they were in their owner's presence.

“Kerri was great with Nahla and even stopped by earlier in the day to do a meet and greet before their scheduled walk. I will definitely be reaching out in the future for her care :)”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve personally cared for dogs, cats, and small animals throughout my life, and my experience extends well beyond pet ownership. I hold a degree in biology with coursework focused on animal behavior, physiology, and research. This background helps me better understand animal body language, behavior, and individual needs. I’ve worked with a wide variety of species, including exotic hoofstock and birds in a zoological setting, as well as pigs, goats, and birds through wildlife rescue and animal care work. In addition, I spent approximately three years working in an animal shelter environment, where I handled and photographed thousands of dogs to help them find loving homes. Through that experience, I learned how to safely interact with dogs of all sizes, ages, temperaments, and energy levels. Whether your pet is outgoing, shy, energetic, a senior, or requires a little extra patience, I strive to provide attentive, reliable care tailored to their individual personality and routine. I’m a small business owner and public school teacher, which gives me a structured but flexible schedule that works well for pet care. I currently have more availability during weekends, school holidays, and breaks (especially during the summer months), when I can offer extended and consistent care for pets and house sitting. During the school year on regular weekdays, I’m typically available in the mornings and evenings, with greater flexibility on weekends. I’m happy to discuss specific dates and needs to see what works best for your pet’s routine. I care deeply about consistency and communication, so pets feel settled, safe, and well cared for, and owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where I focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine in the environment where they feel most comfortable. I follow all care instructions closely and make sure feeding, walks, medication, and daily routines are completed on time and as directed. I treat every home with a high level of respect and care, keeping spaces clean, organized, and exactly as I found them. I’m mindful of both the pet’s needs and the owner’s home, and I prioritize reliability, safety, and consistency in every visit or stay. I also believe clear communication is essential, so I provide updates as needed to give owners peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I worked in a dog boarding and pet day care facility all through high school. Afterwards I did dog walking and pet sitting for those same families after I graduated and continued until recently when I moved. I grew up with lots of pets and I love every single one of them. Dogs hold a very special place in my heart. I have practice dispensing medication to animals due to my past job experience. I’m very active and love playing with dogs and taking them for walks. I also volunteered in my local animal shelter in the beginning of college. I’ve spent plenty of time around dogs, cats, and lots of other animals through out my life. Thank you for reading.(: I’m currently working from home part time while also taking my last few college classes online, so I have a lot of free time and flexibility to care for animals and make sure they’re getting the play time they deserve. I have lots of experience with high energy dogs and fostering a safe environment for them to get out the energy through fun play and runs.

“Callista is just great with Max! He has some quirks and she really listened to our instructions and worked to get his needs met. Great communication, arrived on time and sent photos of their walks together. We so appreciate her help…makes it easier to go away when we are confident in who is watching our pet.”
