About: Just a dog owner who loves all the doggies and only wants the best for them. I have sent both my large dogs to a month long professional training facility and have learned how to train and maintain training of my dogs from professional handlers. I have a good sense of dog psychology and have rehabbed many fosters (>30+) to be able to be adopted. I am able to care for all dog types and needs, however, I will only consider active and independent dogs for boarding. The extra care required for young (<6mo) or aging dogs is not conducive to caring for the amount of dogs I watch at any given time. I am retired and stay at home FT working my business of Doggie Day Care while watching my own dogs and fosters. At the most, the dog will be alone for 2 hours once a week while I complete errands like shopping and/or appointments. Some Fridays, I am away for more than 5 hours, however, they will be left in an isolated secured yard with 7’ fences. What a day would look like is dogs get up when I wake up. Then hang out in the house or the yard until outside morning chores are completed. From 8:00 am to 11:00 am, we will have play time at the dog park for up to 2 hours. From 11:00 am to 3:00 pm we move into the house to either nap, watch tv or do inside chores. From 3:30 pm to 4:30 pm is dinner. From 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm is outside play at the park again. From 6:30 pm to 10:00 pm is indoor recreation and hanging out with hoomans. Finally, bed time from 10:00 pm till 8:00 am. I abide by owners’ requests for specific care of the dog. Owner is welcome to inspect the location where the dog will play and sleep. Dogs are free to roam off leash 24/7 with access to grassed yard for play or bathroom. There is no kenneling unless specified by owner or use during sleeping hours (Based solely on my discretion for the boarded dog's safety and/or my dogs’ safety).

Even though this was last minute Kate took the time to come meet me and my dog. She was wonderful with my dog. I was gone for eight days and I came home to a happy and healthy dog.

He ensured that my pup was taken cared of. Nobu is an anxious pup being never separated from me but Annikan and Frito Lay welcomed him intro there home and showed him love.

About: Animals have been a part of my life since I was growing up in El Salvador. ❤️ I have experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds, and I truly enjoy making every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable. One thing that sets me apart is my patience with shy or nervous pets. I cared for a Husky-German Shepherd mix who was initially afraid of me, but with time, patience, and consistency, he learned to trust me and became excited to see me. That experience taught me how important it is to respect each pet’s personality and let them build trust at their own pace. I have also cared for cats for many years and helped look after a sweet Pit Bull and a small Shih Tzu. I will treat your furry family member with kindness, attention, and love, just as I would want someone to treat my own pets. 🐾💕 I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule and a lifelong love for animals. I’m available on weekday mornings and afternoons, and I can also help on weekends with advance notice. Living in beautiful Hawaii, I know families sometimes travel between islands or go away for the weekend and need someone trustworthy to care for their furry family members. I can offer boarding in my home or visit your home to provide loving care while you’re away. My home has a fully fenced yard, giving dogs a secure outdoor space to enjoy under supervision. I would provide a loving, calm environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and opportunities to relax. As a mom, I’m mindful of maintaining a safe environment for both children and pets. I would always supervise interactions and make sure each dog has the space and care they need. When caring for pets in their own homes, I’ll carefully follow their routines and their owners’ instructions, including feeding schedules, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, and any special needs. I’m also happy to send photo updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

It’s clear that Grace genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five stars!”

About: I have extensive experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, patience, and ability to adapt to each animal’s unique needs. I’ve provided consistent care for energetic puppies, helping with basic training and routine building, and I’ve also worked with senior pets—offering gentle handling, administering medication, and supporting mobility or dietary needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing safety, comfort, and emotional well-being. I’m also highly reliable and committed to clear communication, so you’ll always know your pet is in good hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I build my schedule around the pets I care for, ensuring they receive consistent attention, walks, feeding, and playtime. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle sessions, I make sure every pet’s needs are met on time. I also regularly set aside time for cleaning, grooming, and basic training when needed. Being around animals brings me joy and purpose, so caring for them isn’t just a task—it’s something I look forward to every day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I carefully follow any routines or instructions provided, including feeding schedules, medication needs, and behavioral preferences. In my home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment—free from hazards, with secure spaces for rest and play. When in a client’s home, I respect their space and ensure pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I also stay attentive to changes in behavior or health and will communicate any concerns promptly. My goal is to create a calm, secure atmosphere where pets feel loved, and owners feel confident.

About: Dogs have been part of my life since I was 8 years old, when my family got our first dog, a Labrador. Ever since then, Labradors have been a part of our family, and over the years, I’ve also had a Puggle of my own. Most recently, our beloved family dog was Foco, a Husky who sadly passed away. In addition to caring for our own dogs, I’ve also occasionally helped friends by looking after their dogs when they needed a helping hand. Dogs have always held a special place in my heart. I’m now looking forward to sharing that love with other dogs and helping fellow pet parents feel comfortable knowing their furry family members are in caring hands. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to give dogs plenty of affection, companionship, playtime, and attention. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I want each one to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a stay-at-home mom in a military family, I have flexibility in my daily schedule to provide attentive care for your pup. I understand how busy life can be and would love to help pet parents whenever I can! I’ll do my best to follow your dog’s usual feeding, walking, playtime, and rest routines, and I’m happy to provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! We have a fenced-in backyard where dogs can enjoy some outdoor time, play, and take potty breaks in a secure environment. Our family has two young children, ages 2 and 5, so it’s very important that any dog staying in our home is comfortable and gentle around young children for everyones safety. I want your pup to feel right at home! If needed, I can provide a kennel, dog bed, and food and water bowls. All provided items will be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected between stays to maintain a clean and comfortable environment. I’ll follow your instructions regarding feeding, exercise, potty breaks, and any special needs. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is being cared for.

We are forever grateful for Yiye and her family taking care of our senior dog while we were away. It was our Kisu girl first experience away from family and she had difficulty with the transition. Yiye sent lots of pics and videos daily and communicated often throughout the day. With the challenges that came with caring for Kisu, Yiye provided the best care and biggest heart. Our Kisu girl was well taken cared of. We can’t thank her enough. We highly recommend Yiye & Ta and hope Yiye will be open to pet sitting Kisu in the future.

Been taking my dog Makana to Ines since 2023. He absolutely adores her and sometimes I think he likes her better than me lol. Shes so attentive to him, goes on walks, has play time and is so knowledgeable of dogs. She has prior experience with behavior training and has helped Makana with all types of training. He usually goes to her house and stays, the longest has been for two weeks. I even needed her once to go to my house to pick him up(needed to leave the island), I trusted her with my key and she locked up and picked him up for me. There was also a time where he wasn’t feeling well and I think had some allergies. She kept me updated and even suggested a few things to help him feel better. I know he’s in good hands! If you’d like to ask me questions as a reference for Ines. Please reach out to her and she can connect you to me.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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 .

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

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