“Koda continues to love his vacations at Courtney’s. It makes it easier to leave him knowing that he’s more excited to go see her then stay with us!”

“When it comes to taking care of fur babies, Dani is absolutely gifted. Our normally shy Australian Shepherd, Maeve, thrived in her first pack experience as she played, hung out, and got taken on long walks with other sweet dogs that were also boarding at Dani’s place. The spacious, rural land upon which Dani and her husband live provides an excellent environment for canine frolicking and exercise. Each day we received daily photo, video and text updates that conveyed how happy our girl was while in Dani’s outstanding care. We highly recommend Dani!”

“I am very grateful for Tamiko and her patience and assistance. My fiancé and I are getting married in September and are going to be away for 10 days. We wanted to find a sitter we felt comfortable with and we knew Milo would be comfortable with. For about 2-3 months now we have been doing small test runs to ensure he feels comfortable with her space. Wee just completed our first overnight stay and I am happy to announce it was successful. Could not be more grateful for all her help and her family’s help.”

About: 🏡 Home boarding • 🌿 Fenced yard • 🚶 Daily walks • ❤️ Hi!! I am Sarah, I have enjoyed being a dog mama and also fostering dogs through out the years. After losing my own dog about a year ago, I'm not quite ready to welcome another dog into my family yet. But, in the meantime, I've found so much joy in being the “auntie” to other dogs and cats! I have experience fostering dogs though out the years. I have fostered with Kauai Animal Welfare Society and the Kauai Humane Society. Those experiences has been really rewarding. It is so sweet to see a shy, scared dog learn how to relax and trust the world. I offer boarding for one dog at a time (or two dogs from the same household). I intentionally keep boarding small so your dog gets plenty of individual attention and doesn't have to compete with a house full of other dogs. I have a secure fenced yard and live in a wonderful, safe neighborhood that's great for daily walks. Your pup can enjoy the comforts of a home, outdoor time in the yard, and regular walks while receiving plenty of one-on-one attention. And I love to send photo updates to let you know your pup is dong great. I want boarding to feel less like a kennel and more like a stay with a friend who genuinely loves dogs. Whether you're a local heading out of town or visiting beautiful Kauaʻi and need someone you can trust with your pet while you explore the island, I'd be happy to help. I work from home and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give each pet plenty of attention throughout the day without feeling rushed. I’m able to make time for walks, play, feeding, and lots of companionship, while still being home with your pet. Since I only board one dog at a time, I can give them plenty of one-on-one attention and make them feel right at home. For boarding, I only care for one dog at a time and have a secure fenced yard and a safe, quiet neighborhood for daily walks. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and make sure they have plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, relaxation, and companionship. For drop-in visits, I follow your instructions carefully and keep your pet’s routine and your home as you’ve left it. I’ll always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort, and I’ll send photos and an update after each visit so you know how they’re doing.

About: Dogs are our babies! They need so much love and attention. I absolutely love dogs, but in my current situation, I am not allowed to have one, so im hoping to live out my love for them through doing this. I have 2 kiddos, and would love to go on daily walks and the park often! I am working part time, but super flexible to hopefully fit your needs. I can do overnight especially for kittens and puppies! Otherwise I tend to be available all day Wednesday Thursday Saturday and Sunday. For house sitting, I would love to be able to bring my two kiddos with me if on the weekdays. I have a small apartment, so i am only able to care for small animals. I do have 2 kiddos and 2 cats who keep to themselves, but i do have a separate room I can set up if your pet needs their own space! If you have a dog I can watch for the day, we will most likely be outdoors at the park or out for a walk! If your pet had special needs, just let me know what they need and I got it! I understand trusting your fur babies with a stranger is a scary thing, i am more than happy to send pictures and updates if desired!

About: Aloha 🌺 I’m a calm, reliable, and attentive pet sitter based in Kauaʻi. I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 15, and animals have always been part of my daily life. I’m self-employed and work online, which means I’m very flexible and able to give pets consistent attention, not just quick visits. I follow routines carefully and adapt to each pet’s needs and personality. I enjoy daily walks and gentle outdoor time, and I always prioritize safety, comfort, and calm energy. I treat every pet as if they were my own. During your time away, I stay in close contact and send daily updates with photos so you can feel relaxed and confident your pet is well cared for. I’m a self employer working online so i’m very flexible with my schedule. Is very easy for me to adapt my schedule according to your needs. I enjoy daily beach walks and i have a safe neighboor for leash walks. I love having an excuse to go for a beach walk or hike. I love spending time with dogs and cats. Taking dogs on adventures or play and relax with them. I would take care of them as if they were my own. I mantain contact with the owner during their absence including daily reports and lots of pictures.

We are so lucky to have found and booked with Courtney! Her genuine passion for caring for your dog is so clear from the get-go. Courtney was communicative from the beginning - helping us to solve a minor scheduling mishap and continued to be so while we were away. We got update texts and the cutest photos of our guy regularly. I really enjoy the way her calm and loving demeanor puts both us and our dog at ease. I also appreciate that Courtney treated our dog as a member of her family while he was staying with her, because that’s exactly what he is to us! While this was our first booking with her - it most certainly won’t be the last! Mahalo again Courtney! With love: Gabe, Talia, and Tui 🐾

★★★★★ Highly recommend! I can't say enough good things about our experience with Courtney. Zoe has special needs, and leaving her with anyone is always stressful, but Courtney made it easy. She took great care of Zoe, followed all of her routines, and treated her like family. Courtney stayed in regular contact throughout and sent plenty of photos and updates, so I never had to wonder how Zoe was doing. I felt completely comfortable leaving Zoe in her care, and she came home happy and relaxed. If you have a dog with special needs, or any dog, I highly recommend Courtney. We'll definitely be booking again!

Jack did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, BowBow. From the beginning, I felt confident that BowBow was in good hands. One thing I especially appreciated was that Jack sent me photos during his stay. Seeing those updates gave me real peace of mind and reassured me that BowBow was happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. It's never easy leaving your dog with someone else, but Jack made the whole experience stress-free. I wouldn't hesitate to leave BowBow with him again, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable, caring dog sitter. Thank you, Jack, for taking such great care of BowBow. Five stars all the way! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Kalaheo

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Kalaheo is $43 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 25 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kalaheo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

90% of sitters in Kalaheo can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Kalaheo home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Kalaheo.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kalaheo. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 90% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Kalaheo sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in HI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
