“Cheryl was EXCELLENT! We got to do a meet and greet with her before I booked. Riri got to meet her dog Jose too. Cheryl gave us daily updates & pictures/videos of Riri during her stay. This was Riri’s first time being around another dog & she did so well! Seeing the videos & pictures Cheryl sent was so assuring that she was in good hands! She looked like she was having too much fun that I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come back home with me🤣 Cheryl treated Riri like her very own. On the day of pick up, Riri came home with a cute little reversible dog bandana sown by Cheryl☺️ 10/10 recommend & we will definitely be using Cheryl again👌🏼 Thank you Cheryl for your service!”
“First time boarding my fur baby and it was so scary! But Sarah made the process as easy as possible and was so communicative. She sent daily pictures and updates which was so nice! I definitely recommend and will definitely be back to her for future boarding needs!”
“Alexander was great again with our pup, Koa. We've hired Alexander for doggy daycare several times, but this was the first boarding. There was a small mix-up at drop off, but he apologized and worked quickly to rectify the mistake. Koa is an anxious little guy, and Alexander was great with him. He accommodated our needy pup wanting to be glued to him the entire stay. They worked on the computer together, mowed the lawn together, and I'm sure there were countless other hours of lap snuggles. Warms my heart knowing that our little Koa was treated with compassion and support while away from home.”
“Rebecca is not only a great and well respected pet sitter but someone who for us is also a dear friend. Her experience and education are well suited for animal care but more importantly her heart is in what she does. We cannot imagine anyone with whom we would feel more secure leaving our cat Hobo in the care of. The photos she sends of him inside her home interacting with the other cats and dogs in a safe and happy environment are both pleasant and adorable. It’s almost as if he’s at “school” learning to play and be well with his friends! Rebecca makes sure everyone interacts comfortably and safely and the result is a healthy social environment that is beneficial for the animals and reassuring to owners. It’s amazing to see! Separation is of course possible if necessary.Yet seeing our cat enjoying the benefit of safe and healthy social interactions in Rebecca’s care he might never enjoy in some cage filled kennel makes having Hobo in her care a treasure. She is a Godsend and we a so blessed to have found her for our precious little guy.”
“We have booked with Natalie many times. She is trustworthy, provides stellar care to our pups, provides daily updates and is 1000% worth the drive from Keaau. She is truly amazing and I wouldn’t trust our pups with anyone else.”
“We absolutely love Dianne! Ellie stayed with her while we were in Kona for my niece’s graduation party, and it was such a relief knowing she was in great hands. I was so busy with the party that I often forgot to check in, but Dianne always sent thoughtful updates and photos multiple times a day. A friend reminded me that it wasn’t that I forgot—it’s that I knew Ellie was safe and well cared for, and that couldn’t have been more true. Ellie had the best time, and I’m sure she can’t wait to visit her Aunty Dianne again!”
About: I have loved and trained our own Bernese Mountain Dogs (Germany and Belgium) for over 20 years, and fostered dogs (senior dogs, puppies, and Animal Control rescues) the past 3 years, sometimes taking in dogs who had no reason to trust humans, dogs that learned through our care that comforting routines and training through play helps them to trust again, and leads them to becoming more adoptable dog companions. I believe trust has to be earned with our dogs. Only then, will they let us care for them with love through routines they can count on. I look forward to continuing the routines you have already established with your pupper. I raised our dogs believing every day, every moment is an opportunity for training of basic dog citizen behaviors (come, sit, down, leave it, etc.) through active engagement and play, and daily walks and cuddles. Note: We still welcome in Foster dogs, and hope your non aggressive dog(s) will also be good pup ambassadors in interacting with senior dogs or other fosters. I work remotely part-time from home, and I am retired so aside from short trips away from the house for errands, I am here to care for your dog(s). With our own dogs, we held to a consistent schedule: a morning walk (7-ish), then breakfast, rest (to avoid bloat in large dogs), playtime several times per day in our fenced yard, and an afternoon walk, then dinner. We have a fully fenced yard on 1/4 acre. Potty-trained dogs are welcome in the house and on some covered furniture. We have a 30ʻ deck with an outdoor couch and chairs with with rolling gates to the outer yard. We also have a smaller fenced area for dogs who prefer to be outside in cool shaded grassy areas. I specialize in large non-aggressive dogs. Most of these dogs do not like like to sleep in human beds; I welcome pet guests to bring their own large dog beds for their stays.
“He responded right away to my request. When we met, he showed me around where Gabby would be. He introduced his pack to my girl the right way, one at a time and slowly. Having a little pup, that put me at ease. He also sent me pics with updates which was really nice too. Solid choice for pup watching.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, bunnies of my own and just being with them is my passion! I would love to be able to take care of your pets. I am trying to find a job for some extra cash for college. You can contact me any time and I will most likely be free! I’m very flexible and loving when it comets to animals. As long as you have directions I’m sure I will be able to take care of your animal!
“Athena took really good care of our corgi Roxy in her home. She would send pics and videos throughout the day to let us know how happy Roxy was doing activities with Athena and her dog. They all got along so very well. Roxy loved her time with Athena. I hope that Athena will be available to watch Roxy again the next time we need a sitter.”
“Just a wonderful experience. Kandice is caring and thoughtful with her care of my dog Eevee. I felt that she was loved and in a family environment. Just couldn’t have asked for more. Will use her services again.”
About: I bring years of experience of loving and caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes, both at home and while families are on vacation or on a weekend getaway. I look forward to getting to know you and the needs of your fuzzy companion.
“I recently boarded my dog with Austin and had a WONDERFUL experience. Austin provided a warm and welcoming home environment for my furry friend, making the transition from my home to a boarding situation much easier for both myself and my dog. He was attentive to my dog's needs, offering plenty of love. The updates and pictures I received of my dog made me feel confident that my pet was in good hands. The boarding facilities were top-notch, with a spacious backyard for my dog to play in and a cozy bed for him to rest in. Overall, I would highly recommend Austin for anyone looking for a dog boarding option that feels like a second home for their pet. The level of care and attention Austin provided was exceptional, and I would not hesitate to use their services again in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kurtistown
Andrea was a dream dogsitter: so loving, reliable, knowledgable, present and communicative. My dog was at ease with her immediately and I felt fully confident leaving him in her care. She's also an excellent photographer, so I received regular portraits of him :) Andrea's fenced property gives dogs a lot of space to roam whilst being secure. She was hosting another lovely dog and has a dog of her own, so my dog was in good company. I couldn't recommend Andrea more highly!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Kurtistown on Rover is $52.17 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 36 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kurtistown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Kurtistown home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Kurtistown.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Kurtistown sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
