Pet Sitting Laie

About: I have had dogs my entire life, but what truly sets me apart is my professional, hands-on experience working with them every day. I spent over three years at a dog daycare, where I grew from a daycare attendant to a dog trainer, and eventually became the daycare manager. This experience gave me the opportunity to work with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and personalities in a structured and supervised environment. In addition to my daycare and training background, I have been a responsible dog breeder since 2022, raising four successful litters of Golden Retrievers and Labrador Retrievers. This has given me an even deeper understanding of canine behavior, development, and attentive, hands-on care from early life stages through adulthood. I have a strong understanding of dog body language and behavior, which allows me to safely handle everything from high-energy dogs to more nervous or reactive ones. My goal is always to create a calm, safe, and positive experience for every dog in my care. Dogs are not just a job to me, they are a huge part of who I am. I currently have a Golden Retriever and a Labrador Retriever, and they continue to deepen my love and understanding of what dogs need to feel secure, happy, and well cared for. When caring for your pet, I treat them as if they were my own. You can expect consistent communication, reliability, and attentive care throughout your time away. If you have any questions about my experience or would like to see if I’m a good fit for your pet, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I would love to connect with you. Pet care is a consistent and important part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule around providing dependable, attentive care, including regular feeding times, exercise, and enrichment tailored to each dog’s needs. While I do have dogs of my own, they are on a stable routine and well cared for, which allows me to plan my time responsibly and show up fully for the pets in my care. Because of this, I am mindful about how long I am away from home at a time, but I ensure that every visit and stay is intentional, reliable, and focused on your pet’s comfort and well-being. Whether your dog needs structured walks, playtime, or a calm and consistent presence, I am able to incorporate their routine seamlessly into my day. At this time, I provide care exclusively in my client’s home so that your pet can remain comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I take pride in following each dog’s specific needs, whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training reinforcement, or simply providing a calm and attentive presence. I am very mindful of safety, structure, and reading dog body language to ensure your pet feels secure and well cared for at all times. If your dog enjoys walks, I am happy to take them around your neighborhood or to appropriate outdoor areas, depending on your preferences. I tailor each visit to match your dog’s energy level and routine. I offer a range of services including drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting depending on availability. My goal is to provide reliable, thoughtful care while keeping your pet happy, safe, and comfortable in your absence. If you have any questions, special requests, or concerns, I am always happy to communicate and make sure I am the right fit for you and your pet.

“Excellent, attentive care for our beloved cat, Hiwa.”

About: Dogs and cats have been considered family members as long as I can remember. From grouchy 14 year-old Mama Gray to escape artist Kona we've loved 9 cats and 4 pups. Now that we have downsized Marty and I split our time between a cottage in Hauula and our van on the mainland. We miss our association with our furbuddies and love opportunities to care for them -- even on a short-term basis. We'll brush, bathe, walk, cuddle and scoop. We're comfortable with large and small breeds and don't mind extras like medicine or taking care of minor cuts or scrapes. We're okay with puppy schedules and are happy to take a slow pace with our older buddies. We send a daily picture of your pets (if desired). We know you're putting your trust in strangers to take care of your home and animals. We respect your rules and leave your home clean and tidy. Thanks for considering us! Marty works full time and I work part time. We both work remotely so we are very flexible and able to accommodate the needs of most people and pets. We ask for and follow your guidelines for taking care of your pets. We are very respectful of rules regarding where the animals can be, how much exercise they need and any dietary needs.

About: I have been blessed to have grown up with dogs in my household so being with them is like being with family. For 17years I got to learn common behaviors, body language, and how to do basic training with them. I get along well with all animals, but I love being with dogs the most. I am very reliable and believe communication is key, it's very important in providing the best care as possible. I am available most days but I just need a heads up so I can plan and prepare for your pet. I can give full care to your pets such as feeding, walking, bathing and even some much needed belly scratches. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pet! Mahalo for your consideration. I am a home caregiver and have short hours throughout the week usually 8am-12pm and off for the rest of the day. Weekends are completely open and I can be with your pet. I do not have a yard, but we often get out of the house and go to the park or to a nearby beach to let out some energy. I work 8-12pm and off for the rest of the day. So fitting in a drop in or a walk is perfect! So getting in your pets daily walk while you’re away at work fits perfectly with my schedule. I have pet seat belts when going for car rides to the beach or to a hike to keep them safe while transporting. Keeping all gates and doors closed while in the home will avoid any quick get aways.

“Sarah was so great! Kept us informed at all times, sent pics of my happy dogs. I was very pleased.”

“Amanda is the absolute best! We feel so safe having her take care of our dogs, and she loves them like they’re her own. We’ve book her in every time we go away and it’s been perfect every time. Thank you so much!”

About: I love animals and believe they deserve nothing but love and care. I have had dogs and cats throughout my whole life and have always been responsible for their care. I helped train my parents beautiful Old English Bull Dog puppy when they received him when he was just 13 weeks old :) he is a very intelligent dog. I also took care of our very old and sick long time family dog of 17 years who I had known since I was born, he had arthritis, pulse he was blind with cataracts. I love all other types of animals as well as pups! I can't wait to meet your furry friends!! I’m currently a stay at home mom, which gives me the flexibility to be there for your fur babies! Also I go on walks and to parks an awful lot so they will get to play and have plenty of exercise. I have a fenced yard and near the beach so we can always go on nice long walks. I love making sure they have what they need and plenty of toys.

About: i’ve been around pets big and small, from kittens to huskies, I love animals. I am a long term care giver for a Australian shepherd. i work part time, so on the days i’m not working i would love to get out and take a dog for a walk or two. I care for pets in a loving way, discipline can be very important, but i like to reward for good behavior and ignore bad, but of course use appropriate discipline when needed.

About: I have plenty of sitting experience ranging from short stays of 3-4 days to long stays for more than 30 days in Europe for friends and family (first time turning my hobby as a job, if you need recommendation don't hesitate to ask me). Dogs, cats, I get along with them all and can handle any necessary household task. To me pets are members of the family. My purpose is to keep things running smoothly while you're away and provide necessary care. I am extremely responsible and resourceful, so I am usually good at quickly fitting into a new place. I'm also a home and flat owner so I understand the responsibilities that come with both and am super tidy and considerate. I'm an international (from Portugal/Switzerland) part time student at KCC, since I have a lot of virtual classes I spend a lot of time staring at my computer screen and greatly appreciate it when I’ve animals about to distract me. I’ve had some house-sitting cats take the role of supervisor very seriously over the years, and my class mates always enjoy the feline interruptions during video meetings. Animals have always inspired me and spending time with them is one of my favorite things. I’m happy to answer any questions you have, so please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

About: *Location: Hau'ula, HI* Registered Nurse for 10 years. Competitive athlete for 20 years. Throughout my childhood I grew up with Dobermans, Bichon Frise and Standard Poodles. I have unconditional love for all dogs and all their personality. Some breeds I've watched over the last 6 months include Rhodesian Ridgeback, Pitbull mix, French Bull dogs and Standard Poodle. I've trained dogs to swim and even surf. I am comfortable with post operative care and administration of medication. Pet sitting experience also includes rabbits, cats, exotic birds and small reptiles. Happy to spend time with your pet at any time of the day. Starting next month my goal is to transition to provide full time pet exercise service to the community. I enjoy going to the beach and being outdoors which is something I have found most dogs to enjoy as well. I can do as little or as much exercising as you request and the pup can handle. If they just want to cuddle and cruise I'm well versed in that program as well.

About: Hi Everyone! My name is Drew, I moved back to Florida this month from Hawaii. I love walking and taking care of dogs. I’m comfortable with all different breeds and sizes of dogs! Growing up, my family would always rescue dogs. I’d love to help out with your dog(s) in anyway I can, whether that’s dog sitting, walking, or stopping by to let him/her out! I work mornings so I can feed/let out dog before I leave and when I get back. My schedule is very flexible and I can be more available.

About: I provide attentive, personalized care—not one-size-fits-all pet sitting. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, routines, and quirks so they feel comfortable and secure. Reliable, patient, and genuinely invested in your pet’s well-being. Caring for pets is already part of my everyday routine. I structure my day to make sure pets get regular meals, exercise, playtime, and calm companionship. Because I’m intentional with my schedule, I’m able to be fully present during visits and give pets the consistency and attention that helps them feel comfortable and secure. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine and personality. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, medication if needed, and lots of affection. I keep pets comfortable by maintaining consistency and minimizing stress, whether that’s in my home or theirs. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication, and I always send regular updates so you know your pet is being well cared for.

About: I love animals and feel comfortable with them. I am responsible, efficient and reliable. I have lots of experience and references. Joy and play included. I have part-time work right now so i am home often and have time to care for your furries. I also have a responsible son who's 16 and available to help. I have a large fenced in yard for your pet happily roam. Also love taking walks around the neighborhood. No other pets on the property.

About: Grew up with at least 2 dogs and 2 cats at the house at a time. 5+ years of experience walking, taking care of dogs apart from my own. No fear of small or big dogs, I believe respect is earned with animals. I am currently working part time, and school online so I am very available and flexible to hangout with your pups!

About: I’ve had pet dogs ever since I was 5 years old and have grown to love all breeds. Big or small dogs, I love them all. Im available anytime for pet sitting or walking. I have experience with many different breeds and different animals as well. Just looking for some extra work. I’m a regular dog walker and sitter for family and friends. I pay attention to the dog and how they walk and what they need from me during that time.

About: I am honored to have been trusted by neighbors, friends and strangers, to watch their pets while they are away. I have always had a connection with animals, they tend to show up at my front door, often lost. I am a big animal lover and look forward to the next pet I meet. I am currently a college student, and my classes are only Monday, Wednesday and Fridays from 8am to 2pm. This enables me plenty of time to walk and give special attention to your pet and ensure they are treated correctly and never left behind. I am all about respect in the home. I will come to your home to stay with or care for your pet while respecting your space and ensuring you come home to everything the way you left it and nothing out of place. I will keep your pet on a leash at all times outside of your home and never let my attention wander.
