“Amazing! We have never left our two dogs in boarding before. They have a complicated diet and they believe that they are a part of the family. Shanelle (husband &children) took them into their home and loved them as if they were their own! Rides in the car, walks with other dogs...sleeping on pillows… under blankets haha. There just isn’t anyway to express this much gratitude. What a BLESSING 💕”


“What an awesome experience! Bridget gave us great updates throughout our pup’s stay. We had no doubt that our pup was living his best life the whole time. We have nothing but good things to say!”


“Casey was very accommodating and took such great care of Mamu even at the last minute. He definitely spoiled her! We received photos of her daily while on our vacation. It was a great first time experience!”


“My little dog, Buddy, had a marvelous time with Leah. Leah provided great communication and kept me updated while I was traveling. Buddy made a new friend in Marley. We would absolutely use Leah again!”



“I highly recommend Marion for dog boarding. My dog really felt at home and really enjoyed their dog Cola’s playful company! She sent a constant stream of photos of my dog, it was great! I can’t say enough good things!”

“Sam loved his time with Rachel and her family. Lots of great distractions to keep him busy. Her daughter and her dogs are amazing and excepted my lil guy and gave him lots of love. Glad to have found that spot for Sam, I’m sure he wouldn’t mind another visit.”

“Wish I could give more than 5 stars! Kule was so well taken care of! Jo and Tame treated our baby like their own and absolutely showered her in love. Kule unexpectedly went into heat during her stay and I felt so bad but they took care of her and went out of their way to make her feel comfortable. They always sent pictures and videos of her on her walks and was very communicative during the whole 3.5 weeks. I will totally stay in touch with them and even meet up at the dog park for the pups to play. It’s hard trusting people with our fur babies while we are away but I 100% recommend them to everyone and will use them if ever we are off island again.”


About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who’s always had two dogs at home and a soft spot for all furry friends. I’ve cared for pets while their families—many of whom I’ve also nannied for—were away on vacation. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I’m confident and comfortable with all dogs and cats. I also have experience with high-energy pups and administering medication. I’d love to give your pets the same care and attention you would while you're away! I'm currently not working, so I have plenty of availability for frequent visits, walks, and potty breaks. Walks are already part of my daily routine, and I'd love to have some furry company along the way! I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved—whether I’m caring for them in my home or theirs. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. In your home, I make sure to respect your space and keep things tidy. If caring for pets in my home, I create a calm and cozy environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and cuddles. My goal is to keep your pet happy and stress-free while you're away!

“We cannot recommend Gina enough, a true blessing when you are looking for someone to watch your beloved pup while you are at work or off the island. A day later, my dog is still tired from the walking and playing for days. Gina's golden retriever Stevie is also a sweetheart and gets along with other dogs and loves to play. If you are between anyone else and Gina, choose Gina.”


“I’d recommend Johnathan! He’s like a dog whisperer. Mika always has issues with new sitters and I was a bit worried at first she kept barking non stop as usual but after a while she settled in but still barked several times. Lacey was no problem she’s always mellow and friendly. Mika in the other hand is very defensive but Johnathan took them in with short time spent with Johnathan Mika barely barked going home after the meet and greet. Then back at it when I dropped them off-when I picked them up Mika made a good connection with Johnathan and she didn’t even bark in my car just crying a bit but no barking she didn’t even want to get out of my car to go inside our home! Amazing improvement!! I’d go to Johnathan for my dogs anytime and highly recommend him as well got updated a few times in the day to keep me updated on how they’re doing. Johnathan is the new dog whisper on Maui!! Love it!!!! Thanks a million!!😊😊😊😊”


“This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We were texted an update and video half way through so we could be reassured our dog was having a fun time. Jurassic Bark is a super professional set up: basically doggy Disneyland! Our dog came home happy and tired out from playing all weekend! We couldn’t recommend this sitter more!”


“Very satisfied with my dog's stay with Diann. She was always helpful and responsive before and during boarding. Will definitely go to her the next time I need boarding for my dog.”



“This was our first experience with DogVacay and it far exceeded our expectations. Nancy and Eric welcomed our dog and took care of her as if she were their own. They walked around the neighborhood and took several walks to the park. Nancy even taught our dog a new trick! We also received many updates and photos every day. I would book with Nancy and Eric again, in a heart beat.”
