House Sitting in Maalaea

“Lexis was once again great with the boys. They were both fast asleep when we came home which showed us they were tired from playing and were in good hands.”

“Carey was great! She was very approachable and easy to talk to during the initial meet and great. I appreciate the fact that she has a lot of experience with dogs over the years. She was prompt in arriving at the agreed time. My dog warmed up to her quickly. She sent pictures daily. I really loved that she was able to spend a large amount of time at my house with my dog. We will definitely use Carey in the future. Thank you Carey!”

“We got tons of pictures and updates from Johnathan and our pup was the most calm he has been after being away from us for a few days. Will definitely rebook!”

“Racheal is very sweet and professional! Our dogs Lucie and Ricky had fun and we felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. We highly recommend her!”

“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!”

About: I’ve taken care of every type of dog since I was a teenager. I’ve been relied upon often to watch multiple animals at a time and always prioritize their happiness and needs! I’m currently working part time so have an open schedule and am able to give your critters lots of love! Any day of the week or time works. I love to spend as much time outside with the animals as possible and love to go for walks and exercise. But adjust based on the pets needs!

About: I have been house sitting dogs and cats since 2015. I hold a degree in zoology with a concentration in animal behavior. I have a vet tech background here on Maui and have cared for hundreds of pets. I have a strong intuition when it comes to caring for animals and do my best to cater to each individual's needs. I am trustworthy, understanding, considerate, and a hard worker. I am also a very good communicator. For Cats: I started loving cats when I volunteered as a Cat Comforter at my local humane society growing up! I have pet sat for many wonderful cats over the years and used to work as a vet tech here on Maui. I pay very close attention to a cat's behaviors, always monitoring their health, to fully understand what they want and need! They are truly interesting and incredible beings and I tried to cater to every individual's comfort level. My hours of availability vary week to week but I will absolutely prioritize clients, their pets, and their needs to the best of my abilities! Not currently providing home services but will happily do drop in visits or house sit to make sure your pet is comfortable while you are away. For walks I am happy to take your pet to the park, go on walks ranging in mileage, or go on a run with them!

About: As a lifelong pet owner, I have looked after many diverse pets for friends, family, and clients on a regular basis for as long as I can remember. I pride myself on being responsible and adherent to your rules and preferences. I will treat your pets like family! I am not new to pet-sitting, but I am very new to Rover! I am a substitute teacher, so my best availability is on weekends, but I am happy to arrange services for after school as well. Notes on housesitting: if your dog cannot go 6-7 hours without a potty break while I am in school, you would need to hire an additional dog walker for either late morning or noon(ish). I can specify in advance which days I would be teaching! While I cannot bring your pets into my own home space or car, I am happy to come to you and treat your home space with the utmost respect. If you would like me to take your pet for outings during housesitting services, it would need to be in one of your own vehicles.

“Makana was thorough, professional in the days leading up to our scheduled pet sit, and so good about updates and photos in the time I was away. I would highly recommend Makana to any one🙌”

“Jennifer was AMAZING! She loved my babies as if they were her own! She sent many pictures and videos, was super clean, and hands-down the best Rover experience I have had. I will definitely hireher again and again.”

About: Hi I’m Sydney 🫶🏼 I innately connect with all the pups and kitties all over 💕 I’ve had pets my whole life, including another shih tzu, rescued both a black lab and adult calico cat, and I now have an almost 6 year old shih tzu named Kai. I provide excellent service and unlimited love for your fur babes, guaranteed to make them feel safe and happy. Aloha 🤍 I am available most days and nights. I have a very flexible schedule! Whatever is needed, I will do my best to accommodate any schedule you need and I can work with last minute changes ;) I provide my baby Kai with the utmost love and care as he is my only child! I will replicate that love and care for your baby as well! I am trusted, reliable, and I can adapt to any and I think all walks of life, you are in good hands!!!

About: Hi, my name is Claire 🐾 I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from tiny pups to gentle giants. My own dog is a 65lb German Shepherd mix, so I’m comfortable managing larger breeds, but I also love working with playful puppies and sweet senior dogs. I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! Pet care is a natural part of my day. Since Kihei heats up quickly, I prioritize early morning walks to keep dogs safe and comfortable. I plan my schedule around each pet’s needs, making sure they get plenty of exercise, potty breaks, and attention throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just hanging out together, I’ll make sure your pup feels loved and cared for. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide, making sure they feel comfortable and secure. I keep a close eye on them during walks, use secure leashes/harnesses, and always watch for potential hazards (especially in busy areas).

“AMAZING! Alexander was perfect!! She loved our fur babies and our home like her own. All 4 boys loved her ! We didn’t worry about a thing while we were gone. We came home to clean home and happy dogs. She was great at communicating and sending photos to keep us updated. We completely trust her and will use her again. Everytime. She is always welcome in our home even if she wants to stop by and see the boys and have dinner. ❤️”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and they’ve always held a special place in my heart. When I was six, our family dog passed away, and before my parents were ready for another, I would visit our neighbors every day just to play fetch with their German Shepherd. From that young age, I knew I’d always want dogs in my life. In college, I worked full-time at a dog boarding and daycare facility, caring for multiple dogs at once—sometimes up to 20 in the yard during playtime! My responsibilities included feeding, administering medications, and ensuring each dog felt happy and safe. It was a challenging job, but one I truly loved. Most recently, I shared 12 wonderful years with my dog, Ana, who traveled the world with me until she became ill. Losing her was incredibly hard, and I miss the joy of having a dog around every day. That’s why I’ve reactivated my Rover account—to share my love, care, and experience with dogs in my community once again. I work full-time at the hospital, now on a 4-day schedule, which means I have more time for pet care! I’m available for house sitting every night, as long as I’m within a reasonable distance from work. While caring for your dogs, I can stay at your home to keep them comfortable—or take them out for fresh air and fun at the beach. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their normal routines as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and happy. I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, and plenty of love and attention. I enjoy engaging pets with playtime, walks, or quiet cuddle time—whatever they enjoy most. If requested, I can also take dogs to the beach or on outings for fresh air and exercise.

“Fantastic! I was so happy to have found Emily to house sit and watch my cat for me. She was incredibly helpful and reached out when my unit ended up flooding so I can quickly get it handled by our property manager. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“After returning from a two week trip, I found my two pets just as I had left them, happy and healthy! Erin sent photos with reports of my dog and cat, which reassured me they were doing well. Melo, my previously feral cat, doesn’t warm up to many people, but he liked Erin! Likewise, Bella, my rescued GSD, quickly learned to trust her. That spoke volumes to me. I highly recommend Erin to anyone looking for a pet sitter; there is no need to feel guilty for leaving a beloved pet/s with Erin at the helm. They will be in caring hands. I will definitely request Erin in the future. Thanks again, Erin. 😊 🐕‍🦺 🐈”

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 am a dog fanatic, they are very special to me. I have had many dogs growing up of all breeds and sizes. I will love them whole heartedly, I have a 2 year old furry baby and I understand how much love and care they need while you're away. I do have a 5 year old who is dog crazy as well, he has lived with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Animals have a very special place in my heart (especially dogs) and I would love to be the one to take care of your special friend. I know the importance of trust with your loved ones. I would like to bring good energy into you and your pets life with a whole lot of love. Mahalo I am flexible, I don't mind traveling around the island to take care of animals. I have been fortunate to work with animals all over Maui for the last 10 years. I am very open to any specific instructions your special friend will need; first timers, allergies, high energy, separation anxiety and any extra care your pet may need

“Jill was excellent and my dog Charlie was well cared for. He stayed at her apartment for 6 days. She sent daily texts and photos which I loved! She was also very accommodating when I asked her to bring Charlie back home for me as my flight was arriving late. I would highly recommend Jill and will be booking her again in October.”

“My kitty Lola is so happy staying with Catherine… she’s so caring and responsible. I highly recommend her for your next pet sit.”
