“I can’t express how happy I am with Polina’s time watching my baby Aina boy. She is an outstanding sitter! I actually enjoyed my few days away because I felt he was being cared for and loved to such a high standard, which is a first for me. She went over and beyond to keep his daily routine in terms of exercise which is something I am so very grateful for. She sent me pics and updates so I always felt in the loop. She also kept my place so tidy and clean!”
About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! I have experience with everything from horses and livestock, to birds, reptiles and fish. I am currently working very part time (3 hours a day) at a Kennel. I am usually always home by 11 am and am only away from home for a very short time. I have a large fenced yard, but will crate or kennel pets while unsupervised for a very short amount of time. I spend a majority of my time at home with my own pets and hanging out in the yard.
“Highly recommend Kaylee! She saved the day. We had a change of plans last minute and had be out of town longer and within 2 minutes she responded yes so we could stay and didn’t have to worry. She was constantly updating us on how Bentley was doing with pictures of their walks and playtime. We knew she took good care of him because he was so calm and happy when we got home. We will be using her again!”
“Izzie was wonderful! She took great care of our anxious pup. Our home was spotless and we received multiple pictures of him daily. We really felt great about Izzie watching our home and senior dog. We highly recommend her!”
“Amy was available at the last minute. She was able to work around her schedule to accommodate my request. She did a great job! My cat warmed up to her, which is no easy feat. I would use her again.”
“Spencer and his partner Ruby did an amazing job with our corgi Theo! If we could give them 10 stars out of 5 for the care they gave our doggo, we would! They are very friendly and enthusiastic, Theo loved them immediately. They kept Theo safe and happy, we even had neighbors tell us how well cared for our boy was while we were on our trip. We got daily updates and pictures, which we super appreciated.”
“Excellent sitter! Quickly developed a genuine bond with my dog and was super caring and helped my pup ( a recent senior rescue) live her best life. Good communicator, very friendly, went well beyond to give my dog a great experience. I highly, highly recommend.”
About: Aloha! We have cared for many animals, plants, and homes over the last 5yrs as full time caretakers + pet au pairs. House sitting in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Bali, Vietnam, California, and Hawaii. As a medical professionals (nurses), we are extremely comfortable with administering medications and special care when needed. *** 50+ reviews on another platform - available upon request! *** Full time pet au pairs, so most of the time is spent caring for the pet and being comfortable in the home environment together - while enjoying the vibes of the local community. Prefer long term care arrangements of 2wks - 3 months. This allows time to bond with the pet, establish routines, and enjoy the experience at a slower pace.
About: I grew up with all sorts of animals. I’ve also taken care of dogs/cats in my community since I was a kid. I am a HUGE animal lover, and would love to spend time with your pets! I have plenty of time throughout the week and weekends to hang out with your animals. It is de-stressing for me, and something I really look forward to. I am clean, respectful, and dependable, I also follow any instructions very strictly and will take very great care of your pet and its needs.
About: Aloha! I’m a tradesman by day and animal-lover 24/7. I’ve had animals since i was born and know they’re more than pets, they’re true ‘ohana. Taking care of your ‘ohana isn’t a job, it’s a connection. I’d be honored to take care of your ‘ohana. I’ve volunteered at various shelters across a couple states; from quick walks to multi-hour hikes, from playing fetch to administering medication, i will treat them as my own. Mahalo! I do have a full-time job, as a carpenter, so i am occupied Monday thru Friday, from 6am-4pm. Any animal that needs to be let outside will be taken care of every morning, every afternoon, and at lunchtime if possible. We can discuss what kind of schedule would make you (and your animal(s) the most comfortable! I believe there’s no better comfort for an animal than being in their home. I find it more tolerable for animals to get used to a new person rather than a new person AND a new habitat. My commitment is to making your time away from your animals as smooth as possible for you and them.
About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs. I got my first dog when I was just 2 years old, my second at 3, and since then I’ve had the joy of sharing my life with seven dogs in total. What started as a lifelong love has become my full-time work. What sets me apart is my personalized, one-on-one care. I closely follow each pet’s routine, provide frequent updates, and create a safe, calm, and comfortable environment. I’m trusted, experienced, and dedicated to making every pet feel loved and secure I have a flexible schedule and dedicate myself full-time to pet care. This allows me to spend quality time with each pet, follow their routine closely, and provide the attention, comfort, and care they deserve I care for pets with love and attention, whether at their home or mine. I follow their routines, give plenty of one-on-one attention, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Pets in my home enjoy a calm, friendly environment where they can relax and feel like part of the family. I adjust care to each pet’s personality and needs, so every visit is stress-free and full of love
“Maja was great. She took excellent care through attentiveness and genuine care for our baby Nalani. Being only 5 months old, Maja did an awesome job and kept us in the loop the entire time. She left our apartment immaculate and would love to have Maja back again.”
“Leana took such great care of, Watson. Kept him entertained and well looked after. I cannot think of a better person to watch my little guy when I’m away. Thank you, Leana. You’re amazing!”

He is a sweet miniature dachshund named Amigo. I am available Friday, Saturday and Sunday and federal holidays I always leave a place better than I found it. I will take care of your pets and home with the upmost respect, stay tidy and communicate efficiently. Thank
“We are always nervous leaving our two doggies with a new sitter, but Zakk's meet and greet went so well that we knew our pups would be in good hands. They took an instant liking to him and from the very first photos that Zakk sent, we knew that they would be well cared for while we were away. Hiring Zakk came with a couple of extra bonuses - one, he's an experienced dog trainer and not only did he walk our pups as requested, but in addition he provided individual care (extra walkies/runs) for them. In one week, he turned two barky puppies into well behaved, much less reactive critters. We are absolutely amazed at the difference one week with Zakk made for our fur babies. They are no longer barking their fool heads off at dinner time or when people/vehicles pass our windows. In addition to this amazing transformation, Zakk and his service dog provided socialization in our home which provided another learning experience for our dogs. Not only did they hang out together, they actually played with one another, which Zakk said was unusual and positive for all three dogs. In addition to the outstanding pet care, Zakk also did the laundry, watered the plants on the landing, and left the house in good shape. We highly recommend Zakk for dog sitting and hope he's available the next time we leave and need care for our pups.”
“Great person. She loved our dogs and we needed that to entrust them into her care. She also was very responsible as she watched them at our house in our absence. I would recommend her to anyone who truly loves their dogs.”
“I 100% recommend Mandy! I am VERY picky about who cares for my dogs due to many reasons, but right when they met Mandy they LOVED her! She cared for them greatly and she kept me posted about everything throughout the whole time!”

Peach stayed at our condo for 1 week and took great care of our cat and home. She entertained him, gave him lots of love and cuddles and he felt super comfortable with her from the start. The entire time she sent pictures and videos and gave us updates. She was flexible with a last minute change and communicated well from the beginning. She also left our place spotless.
This is the second time Bailey watches after Haywood. She was amazing & he is so much more comfortable with Bailey than the first time. She always goes above and beyond. We highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone to care about your pets & take exceptional care of them!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Kalaoa on Rover is $74.9 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 74 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Kalaoa. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Kalaoa 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 Kalaoa 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.
Tip: 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 Kalaoa 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 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 .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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.
