“We couldn’t be more grateful for Alyssa and the incredible care she’s given our pup, Koa. From the very first walk, she connected with him instantly—tuning in to his personality, energy levels, and subtle cues with ease and genuine affection. Alyssa has been walking Koa twice a day, and each time he returns happy, calm, and clearly well-cared for. She’s dependable, communicative, and has a warm, intuitive way with animals that put us—and more importantly, Koa—completely at ease. We highly recommend Alyssa to anyone looking for a thoughtful, attentive, and truly exceptional caregiver for their pet.”

“Rebecca was prompt and so kind. The dogs got the walkies they needed!! She was always on time and sends lots of pictures!! We can’t wait to use Rebecca again and again in the future!!”


About: Hi! I’m Kerissa!! Im the kind of person who will stop mid-conversation to say hi to a passing dog (no shame 😄). Whether your pet is playful, shy, snuggly, or sassy, I treat every animal like family! I’m excited to be apart of this community and see all the different pets as well as their personalities! I’m all about creating comfort and consistency while you’re away. I will follow your routines, send regular photo/video updates (because I know you miss them!), and make sure your pet gets all the love, attention, and playtime they deserve. Let me know your pet’s quirks, favorite toys, or anything else that helps them feel safe!! I’m happy to go the extra mile. Can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I have a decently flexible schedule, which means I can give pets the time, attention, and care they need without rushing. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon check-ins, I make sure they feel loved and cared for throughout the day. I’m usually more available in the mornings/afternoons, night time depends if I am working my job. I like to say yes to pets that are in Kapolei/Ewa area for easier commute. I usually start the day with a walk or play session, and I make time throughout the day for feeding, potty breaks, cuddles, and check-ins. When pets are in my care, I do everything I can to make them feel safe, loved, and at home. I keep a calm, pet-friendly space where they can relax, play, and be themselves. Whether your pet needs cozy naps, playtime, or lots of snuggles, I match their energy and needs. I follow your routines as closely as possible!! feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, and even bedtime rituals. I keep water fresh, treats on hand (if allowed!), and I’m always happy to give updates throughout the day. If your pet is used to a crate, they’re welcome to bring it for comfort. If they’re free roamers, that works too! I just ask for any info you can give me (favorite toys, quirks, routines) so I can make their stay feel like home away from home. - I don’t have pets of my own, so your fur baby gets my full attention - I keep floors clean and free of anything chewable or unsafe -fenced backyard

“He was very professional and followed what was discussed. Very well with my Shiba Inu although they are known to be as “difficult”. Thanks for your service Steven!”


“Always punctual, responsive, amazing with the dogs, and extremely informative during every single walk. Highly recommend. My dogs are always delighted when she shows up. She and her father have been absolute life savers for me with my tight work schedule.”

About: I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs for neighbors and friends for many years. Have raised some of my own since they were babies. Im a teacher at Kapolei HS. I’m free morning and nights and live in Kapolei. I’m free almost every day of the week to help. I have extra treats and toys for cats and dogs In my home. I can be available at a moments notice for your convenience !

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for as long as I remember and can’t imagine a moment without a 4 legged companion. I have two dogs of my own who are both miniature dachshunds and my whole world. I have had both of them since they were 10 weeks old, Ollie is a year old and Oscar is 5 months old. Dachshunds are an exceptionally difficult breed, but I have loved every minute of it and seeing a puppy learn and grow is so rewarding! I strongly believe that pets are family and love being able to ease pet parents minds who need to leave their fur babies at home. I have experience with puppies, elderly dogs, reactive/anxious dogs, and dogs who require special care. My dogs are very high energy and playful so I love looking for new ways to train and keep them entertained and happy! I am not currently working so I have a very flexible schedule for those who need day care, walks, or a check up on their pets! My husband and I are new to the island so I’m on here looking for some new furry clients to love! I live in a townhouse with a fenced yard and a large grassy park directly behind the home for those who are interested in daycare! I also have reliable transportation for doggy pickup/dropoff and scheduled walks or visits! My dogs are very high energy and playful and I have yet to meet a dog that they don’t love or get along with! I have been dog sitting consistently throughout their lives so they are well adjusted to new furry friends inside and outside of their own home. Since I have two young dogs, the inside of my home is also party gated off so that I can ensure that I always am able to keep an eye on them and that they can’t get into anything that they shouldn’t be.

“I’m happy to provide a strong recommendation for Kerissa, who is applying to be a dog sitter. Having known Kerissa for 2 years, I can confidently say that they are one of the most responsible, kind-hearted, and animal-loving people I know. Kerissa has an incredible connection with dogs, and I’ve seen firsthand how well they care for animals. I’ve been around Kerissa and her dogs, Sammy and Koby, several times, and each time, I could feel the love they have for each other. Whether it was taking them on long walks, making sure they stayed on schedule with meals and playtime, or offering extra cuddles and attention, Kerissa always went the extra mile to ensure Sammy and Koby were happy and well-cared for. I wholeheartedly recommend Kerissa as a dog sitter. They are trustworthy, dependable, and deeply caring. Any pet would be lucky to have them look after them, and I have no doubt they’ll provide an exceptional experience for both the dogs and their owners. Please feel free to reach out if you’d like to discuss Kerissa further. I am happy to provide more details about my experience.”

“Ohana means family and family means NO ONE gets left behind, pets included!! I've known Mia for 10+ years she has taken care of my dog Diamond. I have seen Mia care for her dogs, witnessed her care for her dog's puppies for both labors and watched her care for other dogs for other people. She's one I can trust because I know she would treat my dog as if it was her own! You can definitely see the love, care, experience and compassion she has for dogs! My dog is practically one of my children and times are rough now, one thing that puts me at ease is that she would send me pictures and videos of my dog during their stay, which is greatly appreciated! I appreciate her always going above and beyond for diamond! Mia will always be my first choice when it comes to watching my diamond!”


Nathan W.
“I've known Nate Walker since he was in high school and college, dog sat and house sat when I travelled. Treated my older dog fantastically, he acted 10 years younger after Nate watched him. Also watched over my property, once spotted a leak in an upstairs bathroom and shut the valve that would have been major damage. Always reliable.”

I would not hesitate to use her services again in the future!”

Lawrence & Janice M.

“Fantastic!..great communication & pictures from the walk. Will book again.”


Mackie W.
“I have known Mackie her whole life and have watched her develop relationships with at least 10 different kinds of animals. I fondly call her the "dog whisperer" because she has always been able to somehow create strong trust connections that allow her to train dogs even without any formal training on her part. I always thought she would become a veterinarian! Even though she's on a different career path, she loves animals and strongly desires their presence in her life. At any time, our family had up to five different species of pets based largely on her requests (she is persistent!). I would trust her with even my most frail furry friend. She is gentle, loving, and confident.”
