“Madison and Dylan were fantastic! They took excellent care of my three kitties and kept me updated throughout the stay with regular messages and pictures. I came home to a spotless house, which I really appreciated. Both my cats and my home were in great hands, and I would absolutely book with them again.”
“Casey watched my 2 nuggets this past weekend while I was out of state- he sent photos while I was gone, kept me updated and responded right away when I reached out. He took them to the park, made sure they got their meds, and lots of cuddles. I highly recommend Casey to take care of your fur-babies anytime!”
“Chose Christie based on her reviews and she didn’t disappoint. Very thorough, outgoing and kind. I found Christie to be competent and professional as well as friendly! Great communication, lots of pictures and left my home spotless. My golden was well taken care of and I didn’t worry at all and was able to enjoy my trip. Thanks Christie!!!”
“Courtney was amazing while I was away. She took great care of my pets and my home and sent me updates each day, which I really appreciated. Coming home was so nice, the house was all set and she even left me flowers. I felt at ease knowing everything was in good hands and will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“Hannah is a GEM! She is so sweet and gentle, listens and cares about "your" thoughts and concerns. She took care of my dog and two cats. I received updates and photos while away and came home to a sweet report card.”
“Lauren was great with our pups! She checked on them frequently and spent a good amount of time with them as well! The house was just as we left it and had no damage. Will definitely use her in the future!”
About: As a teacher and mother, I’m a natural caregiver and there’s nothing I love more than caring for dogs. I have a gift for understanding them and providing the right kind of love and affection. I’ve worked at a vet, helped dog rescues in Korea, and have been a dog sitter since childhood. Our dog Prim lives a splendid life in our new fenced backyard. We brought her to Maui from Korea and have showered her with love. Along the way we’ve watched many buddies for her, always making these dogs feel like part of the family. Let me put your mind at ease, give your dog a safe and loving second home, and provide you with some cute photos too! I am a teacher so I’m usually home by 3 pm and have a lot of holidays off. My husband works four days a week. We’re always home on the weekends and have a great setup when we’re not here so that pets can enjoy both the house and the backyard. My yard is fully fenced in and live on a quiet cul-de-sac. We are very aware of potential dangers and try to always have a plan in case it’s needed. We’re informed on all feeding precautions and exercise care during play and meal time. Both our kids, even our toddler, are careful and kind with all animals. I passed my dog whisperer genes on to them!
About: I have been dog and cat sitting since college, taking excellent care of many precious animals. I have experience with puppies and will respect and adhere to your training styles and needs. My goal is to allow your dog to feel as wholly taken care of as it does with you, although you can never replace the connection, you can certainly spark a new one! I currently have full-time availability for pet sitting and care! I just moved to the island and don’t have my weekly flow set up yet so let me find it while making your pet a #1 priority! Our home has a lovely fenced in yard to keep your companion safe and sound from the dangers of roads. We have a small Pom who lives next door in the ohana on the property. She loves to play, but not always around so when we are inside your animal/s can truly make it their own! I love being outside, so if your dog likes fetch this is the right home! If I come to your home, you can expect full respect for your sacred space, as that’s what I expect in mine. I am very type-a and understand how to leave things how they were, and in an appropriate setting I know how, and like, to leave them better.
“Anela took care of our pups for 3 nights and stayed at our place while we were off island. Both our dogs immediately warmed up to her - she’s definitely got the touch! Anela sent picture updates regularly without having to ask and she left the house in the condition we left it in. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“Thank you so much for taking care of my cats while I was away! I really appreciate your time, effort, and responsiveness throughout the booking. It gave me great peace of mind knowing someone was there to check in on them. Thanks again for your help!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Makanalani expertly cared for our crazy household of 2 dogs, 3 cats, and even our plants while we were away—and we came home to a house that was sparkling clean (honestly cleaner than when we left!). She was incredibly responsible, attentive, and responsive throughout. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our house and animals were in such capable hands. We would highly recommend Makanalani to anyone looking for top-notch care! We will be requesting her in the future as our go-to pet sitter while away!”
About: I’ve had two amazing dogs and cats in my lifetime, volunteered at an animal shelter since I was 13, and researched canine cognition at Duke University! I was also prevet in college, worked with many dogs and pups, and have experience training service puppies. I have most weekends off with occasional weekdays off from my full time job. Happy to house sit or dog walk outside of my work hours and commute! I have been a pet sitter for many people over the years and I’m extremely responsible, attentive, and comfortable around dogs and cats. I’ve had two dogs and two cats of my own and worked training service puppies in my free time. Very active and love being outside will give your pets lots of love and attention while you’re away!
About: I have been a Rover sitter and dog walker since 2023 and have always had a lifelong love for all animals. Growing up on a farm in rural Nebraska, I was responsible for horses, cattle, pigs, chickens, goats, cats, dogs, and even fish. This hands-on experience honed my understanding of different pet needs and personalities. My cat, Milly, has been a part of my family for 9 years and counting. I have worked at a vet clinic and interned at the California Wildlife Center, which gave me veterinary medical knowledge and skills. I am comfortable with medication administration and special diets. With 20+ years of pet care experience, I'm dedicated to ensuring your fur family receives the utmost care and attention they deserve! I'm thrilled to offer my flexible availability to cater to your pet's needs! I am available on weekdays in the mornings and afternoons, and can schedule for midday as well depending on your location. Most weekends I am available to schedule for any time that suits you best. Based on the pet parent’s guidance, I tailor my care approach to match their pet’s personalities and preferences. I have experience working in veterinary medicine and can help administer any medications or give special diets. Safety, happiness, and well-being are my top priorities.
About: I have experience with taking care of dogs and cats of all kind for the past 6 years. I myself have always had some sort of animal my entire life. Whether it be a dog, cat, fish, or reptile, I have owned many different kinds and understand what it takes to give them the best care. Every one of my clients have come back with positive feedback and have always come back to me for their animal needs. Whatever animal you may need help with I am here for you! Animal sitting and walking is my main job so I am available for the animals almost always. I am pretty flexible and try to accommodate all your needs. On a day to day basis I will feed them and walk them whenever it is needed, and make sure they have access to the bathroom as much as possible. When those are all attending to, we will spend the rest of our time playing, snuggling, or enjoying petting and cuddles.
About: Hi there, I’m Brooklen! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them comes as naturally to me as caring for people. With years of experience as both a veterinary technician and pet sitter, I bring not only love and compassion but also the skills to keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, medication administration, or simply keeping your furry family member company, I approach every pet as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to have peace of mind while you’re away, so I make communication a priority—sending updates, photos, and little stories from our time together. From energetic pups who need adventure to senior pets who need gentle patience, I adapt my care to each animal’s unique personality and needs. Your pets deserve someone who’s reliable, responsible, and genuinely devoted to their well-being—I’d love to be that person for you. 🐾 I work part-time and home fairly early in the afternoon. I have some freedom with my schedule and am eager to plan around your pup/kits schedule. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, my goal is to keep them safe, comfortable, and loved—just like family. 🏡 In My Home: I create a cozy, pet-friendly space where your furry friend can relax and feel secure. I follow their normal feeding, potty, and exercise routines so they feel right at home. Fresh water is always available, and I provide plenty of toys, walks, and snuggles to keep them happy and engaged. Safety is a top priority, so I make sure all hazards are out of reach and each pet has their own comfortable spot to rest. 🚗 In Your Home: I respect your space while giving your pet the care and attention they deserve. I’ll follow your instructions carefully—from feeding and walks to medications and house rules. I also keep your home secure, tidy up after meals or litter changes, and make sure your pet feels loved with playtime and companionship. 📸 Communication: You’ll always feel connected while you’re away! I send regular updates with photos and notes so you know how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to have total peace of mind, knowing your pet is happy, healthy, and cared for.
“Mandi was so incredible! She took such great care of my Jackson, even taking him to the park multiple times a day to play fetch and sent pictures to keep me updated. She also dealt with his reactivity well which is always a concern of mine when I leave him with others. Responses were quick and as a house guest she left everything clean, even cleaned the bedding in her room which was so kind and nice to come back to one less chore after a busy vacation.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kīhei
Christy and Michael are new to Maui, and initially they were a bit concerned. After meeting with them, we realized the property management expertise they brought, along with their passion and love for animals, would far outweigh any concern about whether they knew the best route to Petco from Kula! And after the 8 days they spent in our home, caring for our 3 pups and the forever home we built and everything in it - we feel like we struck gold, and now we hope and pray our island is good to them as they are to us, and they can be our OG pet folks. Having used multiple others, both here and on the mainland, they were hands-down the best, not just because our home was immaculate when we returned - including a bouquet waiting on the kitchen counter - but because we know within seconds how our 3 dogs were treated and how comfortable they had been from their spirit and energy when we walk in the door. They loved the time with Christy and Michael, and our dogs range from a year-old fireball Golden pup to a 13-year-old cocker who has back issues and requires love and a constant helping hand - otherwise he stresses out, and it would show - trust me, we've seen the other side and have been forced to back off travel plans until now. I write this review reluctantly, as undoubtedly these two will be in demand as they meet new clients - but they deserve our 10-star endorsement, and we'll be booking them as far in advance as possible!
Makana watched our 2 dogs for 3 nights and was the best dog sitter we have ever had. I think our home was left in better condition than how we left it. We had updates daily of the dogs as we preferred and they looked so happy and well taken care of. Makana was extremely thorough in our dog care, routine, and knowledge beforehand and it overall was professional and comforting knowing how serious she treats puppy sitting. We will definitely be reaching out again whenever we need dog care!
Our pups had an amazing vacation with D! She has a great yard thats small dog proofed. My chihuahuas loved sniffing around and playing all day. We received lots of photos and texts from D to put our minds at ease. When we returned they were excited to see us but also exhausted! We will def book w D again!
Courtney was amazing while I was away. She took great care of my pets and my home and sent me updates each day, which I really appreciated. Coming home was so nice, the house was all set and she even left me flowers. I felt at ease knowing everything was in good hands and will definitely be booking with her again in the future.
Madison and Dylan were fantastic! They took excellent care of my three kitties and kept me updated throughout the stay with regular messages and pictures.

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 Kīhei 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 Kīhei 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Kīhei 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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
