Top rated Kamuela house sitters
“Best pet sitters I've found on the island! They LOVE dogs, which is really the most important thing. And they're very friendly and easy to work with. Plus, they have a ton of experience pet-sitting, so they aren't easily ruffled. Definitely consider Jody when you're looking for a pet sitter on the Big Island!”
“Callista was just great with our Max. He can be a little finicky, and Callista was able to make friends with him during her stay. She kept us updated with photos and shared how he was doing while we were away. She was housesitting, and when we returned everything looked great. We definitely look forward to Callista watching Max when we go away again.”
“Cathy was excellent! Our boys were well cared for and she gave them all the attention that they loved. Playing with the boys was apparently the best. Our dogs looked for her for days later. Cathy is a gem!”
“As was immediately apparent during our meet and greet, our pups were super comfortable with Dizzy (Faith) and we felt good about leaving them with her. We hired her for the day to get her acquainted with our setup and our doggies. She is responsive on the app and we look forward to using her for our upcoming trip.”
“Lindsay did a wonderful job taking care of our dog Tucker and our house while we were away for a few nights. She sent regular updates, photos and videos of Tucker ,so we knew he was in good care and having fun. She also went above and beyond caring for our house; it was cleaner when we got home than when we left it. We will be using her again!”

About: Aloha! I'm Shanon, a naturopathic physician who loves to take care of pets in people's homes. I began caring for my neighbor's cat when I was 10 years old, graduating to dog care in my teens. Since then I have done pet sits in many states and countries, seeing some pets through their lifetimes. My clients have included dogs, cats, bunnies, tortoises, snails, fish and birds. I have also cared for chickens and horses and am willing to look after small farm animals such as goats and sheep. If requested, I take care of gardens/plants, mail/packages and any other issues that may arise while you are gone. Want local or distance references? There are many. Please ask for them! I look forward to hearing from you. Aloha, Shanon Much of my work is online so that I can spend the maximum amount of time with your furry, feathered and scaled friends - I aim to be at home 75% of the time. I treat all pets as my own so they get the attention, love and care they deserve. My services can also include administering medication (pills, subcutaneous injections for cats, insulin shots etc). I strive for your home to be in the same, if not better condition than when you left, and for your pets to be as well-tended to when you are away as when you are home.
“Our house sitter/pet sitter was wonderful. S. Titania was very loving toward our two cats and two dogs. She administered daily medication to one of our fur buddies without difficulty. She spoiled them with massages, and belly rubs sending us pictures throughout the day. I would definitely schedule Titania again.”
“Gina was one the best dogsitters that has ever helped me out. I felt so at ease with her watching my quirky senior pup. she kept me very well informed, and was very communicative. you can tell she has lots of experience with dogs and that she is a natural doglover, and just a great person!!

About: Aloha! My name is Ashley and I’m the proud pet-parent of two dogs. I have never known life without a pet. Growing up, we had numerous dogs and cats, but we also had some out of the ordinary pets, too- pigs, hamsters, turtles, snakes, geckos, etc. Now, my husband and I own two dogs- a ten year-old lab-pit mix, and a two year-old cane corso. I know how important it is to keep them entertained and exercised and I instill the same care in other’s pets, as well. I currently work full-time Monday-Friday, so I am available to do evening walks during the week. For boarding/home-sitting, I am available on the weekends from Friday evening through Sunday evening or potentially Monday morning. I am a homeowner and know first-hand how stressful it can be to trust someone else in your space, but more importantly with your babies. I also know it can be stressful to your pet to have someone new in their home. I am a responsible and caring person, who follows directions well.

I am currently traveling during the off-season of gardening in New York and am on the Big Island in Hawaii for a couple weeks!

My schedule is open with full availability during the week and weekends. I have been pet/housesitting for 6+ years, and will care for your pets in the comfort of their home with respect to your space so you have a clean home to return to.
“Jeremy did a house sit at our house for a few nights. Our dog had a great time, the house was very neat/tidy when we returned and Jeremy prepped our dog's food for the next day so we didn't have to do it when we got home (very nice of him). The updates were just enough to give us peace of mind but not so much that we were thinking about it a lot on our weekend away. We would definitely work with Jeremy again.”
