“Meranda was amazing with Rey! This was our first time using rover and we were a bit nervous but Meranda was very good at communicating with us and made us feel at ease leaving our car at home!”
About: Hey! I’m Ashleigh! I’m a nurse, a dog mom to two Mini Aussies, and pretty much always happiest when I’m outside with my dogs. We love hiking, camping, and finding new adventures. I know how hard it can be to leave your pup behind, so I want to make sure they get plenty of love, exercise, and care while you’re away. I’ll be their second best friend! 🐾 I’m a nurse with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to hang out with and care for your pets! I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your furry family, and I’d love to help out whenever you need. I’m here to make sure your pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll stick to their normal routine, give them lots of attention, and make sure they get whatever they need, whether that’s walks, meals, meds, or just some extra cuddles. I’ll treat them like my own and make sure they get plenty of love while you’re gone!
About: I've been surrounded by animals my whole life—starting with my mom's pug when I was born, to my first pet turtles, now in their 30s! Over the years, I've cared for a variety of pets, including birds, hamsters, fish, and even a hedgehog in college. My Labrador lived a long, happy 17 years, and I currently have a miniature schnauzer I trained myself. I also have experience with senior pet care, making me a trusted go-to for friends and colleagues who often rely on me to watch their pets when needed. Caring for animals isn't just a responsibility; it's my passion! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I’ve always structured my days to prioritize their needs, from early morning walks and feeding schedules to playtime and grooming. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. Whether it’s ensuring a senior pet gets their medications on time, engaging an energetic puppy with fun activities, or simply offering companionship, I integrate pet care seamlessly into my life. It's second nature to me, and I truly enjoy the joy and connection it brings. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I provide a secure, fenced yard where your pup can safely explore, play, or simply relax in the sun. I have two friendly, well-trained dogs who can offer great companionship for social pups, or I can ensure a peaceful, quiet space for pets who prefer a calmer environment. I keep a close eye on all interactions and tailor the experience to your pet’s personality and needs. In a client’s home, I follow their specific care instructions closely, maintaining their pet’s routine for consistency and comfort. From feeding and walking to playtime and cuddles, I strive to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved in my care.
About: What really sets me apart from other dog sitters is my personalized approach to pet care, driven by a deep understanding of each dog's unique needs and personality. I prioritize creating a nurturing and stimulating environment, tailored specifically to your dog's preferences and routines. With a background in canine behavior and training, I not only ensure your dog’s physical well-being but also engage them mentally and emotionally, fostering a sense of security and happiness. My commitment to open communication means you’ll receive regular updates and photos, so you can rest assured your furry friend is receiving the highest level of care while you're away. I work part time, walking/watching dogs and cats is how I would like to spend the other half of my week. Monday - Sunday I’m available. I focus on maintaining your pet's routine as closely as possible, ensuring they feel secure and comfortable. I provide consistent feeding, exercise, and playtime, as well as any necessary grooming or medication according to your instructions. I also respect your home environment, keeping it clean and tidy.
About: At this time I’m working with cats and drop in visits in the Lihue area ( if you’re outside Lihue please message me to discuss) open to boarding cats and very familiar with cat personality and behavior. I’m happy to work with you for drop in visits daily for cats and other animals. At this time I am not boarding dogs. I am open to working with other various animals. I’m very knowledgeable with cats and kittens. I have worked with cat rescue, fostering and administering meds to cats. I am open to working with other animals also.
“Cristina was amazing!! She showed up on time each day and took Kicho for a walk, feed him, and let him out of the kennel! She even stopped by on a Sunday to see all through the steps before showing up on Monday! I would fully recommend her to anyone on the island!! Thank you for the help!!”
About: I have a few friends that travel often and I get to go see their dogs and take care of them. This includes playing, brushing, walking, and bathing :) The companionship and love between humans and man's best friends are priceless. I truly enjoy not only helping the owner, but caring for these beautiful creatures who care for us right back. I would be happy to travel to help with feeding and walking schedule. I have a whole lot of love to offer, and would be honored to help your family. I have no limitations on breeds or sizes. Usually the bigger the more cuddly. Thank you so much for your interest. I look forward to connecting with you and your fur baby soon. I am open, flexible and available. I live in Kapa'a but travel often to North Shore to be with friends and to help with their fur babies. I have a four year old, Obie, doggy, pictured in profile. He loves other dogs and especially other humans attention. Very grateful! I am currently working at a school part time, summer hours, and have flexibility. I look forward in working together and helping with your fur babies. Currently I live where I work, at a pet sanctuary, so I would love to come and care for your loved ones at your home, where they have all their comforts and needs met.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lihue is $23 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 59 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lihue. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lihue. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
