About: I have been caring for animals since I was about 10 years old and have worked in a boarding facility caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments,and health concerns. I am comfortable, experienced & patient with senior dogs and see them as my elder too. There's so much we can learn from our senior fur-baby companions. I love to help puppies explore their environment and build confidence in their own life experience through positive reinforcement training and LOTS of love. 🩷 I am also a musician, and every time my Gretel would be anxious, I would play and she would calm down and relax. I have seen this happen with many other dogs as well. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I would take my dog outside nearly anytime she asked. We'd go on walks or just sit on the hill, soak up the sun, and people-watch. I will care for your fur-baby as though they were my own and will accommodate any requests within reason to ensure your pet(s) are safe, trust me and have a safe and fun environment. I love to take photos too, so I'll send all the updates & photos to ease your mind that your fur-baby is in excellent care (at your request of course).

“Michael did great with my girls. They had a nice walk and he even sent pictures. Would happily recommend him”

About: My love for animals began in childhood in Puerto Rico—caring for my grandma’s chickens, bottle-feeding kittens, and cuddling with my first dog, Coby, a gentle Boxer. Over the years, I’ve cared for a variety of exotic animals including frogs, bunnies, hamsters, and birds. I have a natural bond with animals. My family adopted four Yorkshire Terriers and I was deeply involved in their daily care—feeding, walking, bathing, and playtime. I’ve also helped raise a litter of puppies. I also walked dogs through Wag! where I consistently earned 5-star reviews. I love spending time outdoors—walking, hiking, swimming, or biking—but I’m just as happy to relax and cuddle up with a furry friend. I’m flexible and available for house sitting, walks or drop-ins on weekdays and weekends. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’m here to make the experience smooth and worry-free. I’ll gladly follow your pet’s routine and keep you updated with texts and photos during our time together. Let me know if there are any preferences or special instructions—I want your pet to feel safe, loved, and at home. I work in the morning- part time. I am flexible and can create a schedule that works for all of us. Let’s talk about it! I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in every environment. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your pet’s routine closely, keep spaces secure, and provide plenty of care, attention, and updates. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and at home.

“Kayli was great! Communicated well and was wash’s on time…im so grateful she was willing to go the extra mile with my very energetic dog! Highly recommend”

About: Hi I'm Natalie. I'm originally from Ohio, went to school in St. Louis and was in Arizona for 4 years. I moved to New York in 2017. I work full-time from home Monday-Friday as an account executive for a company called Scentair. I love dogs and cats, I've had dogs most of my life. They are a lot of work but definitely worth it. I would be happy to watch your pup when you need a hand. There are the piers/multiple parks right around the corner from me where we can walk around. Dogs and cats are welcome big or small. If you feel more comfortable I can also dog sit wherever you’re located or drop by to take your pup out for a walk. Let me know if you’re interested and I’d be happy to meet you and your pet. I do currently work remote so they can get some extra belly rubs and attention during the day. I do go on runs in the morning where they are more than welcome to join. I have a fenced in backyard area where your fur baby is welcome to get some extra time outside if needed. I can also crate them if that helps with their sleep schedules etc.

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: I don’t have any experience with dogs, during all of my life I was surrounded by cats. But I am happy to help and to be useful. One important thing for you to know- I have a 28 month old daughter and she is obsessed with all pets. My ohana is tiny, so I can’t take any doggy over 20 pounds I’m rather flexible . Working part time and studying, but I can find time to watch your furry baby. Just need to know a few days before to adjust my schedule My yard is not fenced, it can be a problem. But I can spend time with your little one inside my ohana. One detail- our neighbourhood has a lot of abandoned cats

“Ashley is reliable and kind. My dog ipo immediately loved her.”

About: Over the years I have owned and cared for various breeds of dogs which has thus created skills that I utilize during my car of your pet. My number one principal is to create a peaceful, loving environment for your animal while under my care. I am a very flexible sitter and I’m willing to accommodate to any requests you may have. Thank you for your consideration. All of my work is based out of my home office. I spend a lot of one on one time with my clients pets which I believe brings a much better experience for both me and your pet. Boarding services are my favorite services because I get to spend more one on one time with the animals. Doggy Daycare is my home daycare service, taking the clients out for most of the day, playing and relaxing instead of waiting alone for their owners to return home for the day. Drop Ins and Walks are services provided at the clients residence. I want all of my clients to feel loved and safe while in my care and I would like their owners to know they are in good hands.

About: Hi there! I’m a proud military veteran with a deep love for dogs and years of hands on experience. I personally trained my own service animal, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to truly understand a dog’s needs. Whether it’s a high energy pup or a senior dog needing gentle care, I’m confident and compassionate with all kinds of dogs. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Your furry family member will be in safe, loving, and reliable hands with me! As a dive instructor, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care throughout the week with enough notice. I treat every home with respect and make sure pets stay comfortable by sticking to their usual routines. I follow all care instructions closely and keep things clean, calm, and safe. You’ll always get updates and photos, so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi my name is Madison and I have recently moved to Kona from Honolulu while attending PA school. Previously, I was a Veterinary Technician for 7 years, and have extensive experience with canine handling and training. I can also administer oral medications, injectible medications, insulin, as well as medical therapy, care for geriatric dogs and can assist with physical therapy. I have worked at veterinary clinics ranging from spay/ neuter clincs, farm animal, and emergency and critical care. I love playing with everyone's fur babies and wish I could have them all! I enjoy long walks, especially through the rapids with my golden retriever and running around the park wearing him out! My love for all animals makes me an experienced and dedicated Rover for your own babies whenever you need it! My schedule is currently very flexible, I am generally free throughout the day for walking and letting pets out for bathroom breaks. I am in class from 8-3 other days and can manage your pets schedule accordingly then. All pets cared for in the clients home safely stay within the clients home. No other pets or people are brought over, and they are always on a leash whenever outside in an unfenced area.

About: I’m a young active female who would love to spend more of my free time caring for other loving, furry souls. I specialize in long, disciplined walks as well as frolicking freely wherever the wind takes me. I was a collegiate athlete and studied communications, both which have prepared me with the skills to work interpersonally with my clients and approach adversity in a calm and collected manner. I am well fit for any and all of the exercise needs your dogs (or cats) may have. My experience caring for young children in the comfort of their own home has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to understand what it means to be a guest in the home of my client I’m working for, and preform accordingly. I believe this experience can translate directly into the necessary care needed for in-house dog sitting, and will provide a stress-free environment appreciated by all.

“Jennifer is fantastic! She goes above and beyond and takes my pup to the beach when I work long shifts. She even hoses her down each time after. Frankie always comes home happy and exhausted. I feel like my pup is in good hands with Jennifer!”

About: I grew up caring for cats and dogs. I have an innate understanding of the behavior and needs of animals. I truly enjoy caring for animals; almost as much as they enjoy me : giving them all the attention they need, walks, hikes, and/or trail runs. I'm an elementary teacher and available after 3:00 during the weekdays I am available for over night stays any night of the week and free on weekends. I can care for your pet at your home, since I do not have a fenced in yard. I will follow the schedule and instructions for your animals.

“Toni is great. Selmer is happy. She always keeps me updated.”

About: I am an active, dog-lover that would be so excited to get to know your sweet pup! I am newer to this area so I love taking dogs for walks and going out and exploring the neighborhoods (and dog parks!) around me. They will get endless amount of love and attention in this household! I currently work remotely, so I am able to stay home for most of the day with your furry friend. Please reach out and let me know if you are in need of a dog-loving sitter! I work from home Monday-Friday and have a 5-1pm schedule. Within that timeframe, my work is pretty flexible so I will often play with the pups on breaks/lunches. I go on walks every evening between 1-4pm, usually 3+ miles. I am not able to offer stays at my own home at this time, but would love to help out and house sit or come stop by to take your sweet pup for a walk! I like to understand each individual dogs needs, so please don’t hesitate to let me know if there are any specific requests for activities/enrichment for your dog.
