“100% would recommend!! Thank you Yiye, Ta and Irene for taking such wonderful care of Saint! The daily photos and videos were surely comforting to see him enjoying his time at your home. I appreciate your loving and caring attention with Saint and will be definitely requesting your dog sitting services in the future.”

“Wendy and her parents were great with our two dachshunds. Our fur babies had a hard time with adjusting but they did their best to make to feel at home. Thank you again”

“Miho walked our pup every morning and evening. She sent pictures and updates daily. I know that our fur baby was in good hands while we were away! I would highly recommend Miho!”

“Our dog, Panda, immediately felt at home under the care of Maddy. We were so happy to see Panda fit right in to her family. Maddy even provided updates and videos/pictures of our dog throughout her stay. Would definitely recommend Maddy to anyone looking for a trusted sitter for their dog. Thank you, Maddy! Until next time.”

“Simeon was great and knowledgeable about dogs. We are appreciative that he accepted our booking request last minute as our previous one failed through a day before. We had “meet and greet” with him and his pup a day before, which went well. We will definitely board our dog with him again. Thank you!”

“Robin and her husband were great care givers. They had a big yard for our dog to enjoy and a large shaded area for her to be outside. They treated her like their own.”

“Rieko was absolutely fantastic, and I would gladly board my dogs with her again. One of my dogs struggles with separation anxiety, so we were quite concerned about leaving her. However, she seemed to have such a wonderful time that we weren't sure if she wanted to come home with us! When I pick up my dogs after a trip, I can always tell how well they were cared for, and both of them were just so happy and in a great mental state. Thank you, Rieko, for taking such excellent care of Juneau and Sitka!”

“She was really able to come through for me when I needed someone to look after Spoofy last minute. She was attentive and caring and always put his needs first. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”

“I highly recommend Ying and her husband, Ben, to be your dog sitter! They were excellent, caring and loving with my 15 year-old, Tibetan spaniel, HACHI. Hachi has anxiety and separation issues, but during our first meet and greet, Hachi felt very comfortable being around them and the other dogs. I like the fact that he did not have to be in a kennel and was allowed to sleep on their sofa and anywhere in their living area. While I was on vacation for a week, she sent lots of pictures and videos everyday, which made my mind at ease !! I will definitely book with them again in the future. By far, the best boarding experience for Hachi and me !!! Thank you Ying and Ben!”

“My dog did very well on his first 4-hour daycare with Christine 3 months ago. This time, it is overnight stay. I was worried, felt uneasy, then came updates. She sent photos of my dog cuddling to his son, even slept in their bedroom (just like home). She even hand-fed my dog and offered other dog food when my dog refused his food. The whole family took care of my small Pom like their own. She is really true to her word, "care for them like they’re my own."”

“Shandri requested a meet and greet with Pitbull “Chevie” and instantly I knew from meeting her and her husband, that Chevie would be in safe hands. Asked all the right questions like her food schedule,bathroom schedule, alergies,sleeping habits, and medication. She’s very thorough! She also, took pictures and gave me updates! I will definitely be returning to use her services.”


“Eliana took such amazing care of my dog, Jack, while I was away for 2 weeks! I highly recommend her for overnight boarding. Jack felt right at home and I was able to relax knowing he was in great hands.”

“Shane was wonderful! Spoofy had such a good time and was well cared for. He was thorough with Spoofy’s care instructions and did everything to make him feel at home. I knew Spoofy was in good hands with him and will definitely recommend him in the future!”

“McKinsey was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire Rover experience—from the initial meet and greet to the full four-day boarding. She kept me updated with pictures and made sure my girl had the best time. I am so thankful to have had such an amazing dog sitter that lives close by too! Anyone considering booking with her, I’d recommend her 10x over. Thank you so much Mckinsey!!!”

“When we did our meet, Kenn was very attentive to our dog's behavior. He asked questions to make sure he understood our dog's personality and his routine. He did a great job keeping us updated while we were away. I would board our dog with Kenn again.”


“Tracey and her family took such good care of Yumi while I was away. I did not worry about her at all. They sent me photos daily and it didn't look like Yumi was homesick or had time to miss me!”

“We are so grateful for the loving care Koa received from Kelly and her family. Communication was great and we received regular updates and photos that we really appreciated. We would highly recommend anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

“Robin, much mahalo to you and your ohana for caring for Fluffy. From the looks of all the photos you sent, it seems the company and care you provided proved to make her feel content and comfortable. Happy New Year to you and your ohana. Much mahalo and Aloha!”

“Cristal was great! Quick to respond to any questions and provided updates while we were away. Met with us prior to booking to be able to meet her and her dog Finnegan. Highly recommend!”

Makakilo-Kapolei dog parents share their Rover experiences
Apollo had his 2nd visit with Wendy this week and it went great! We love how she treats our baby like her own. She shares so many cute pictures of Apollo and takes him on plenty of walks throughout the day. He is always so happy to spend time with her and we know we can trust that he will be well taken care of. Can’t wait to book again for our next trip!

I’m so grateful for the amazing care she provided over 4 days. My dog has visual impairment, and she handled everything safely and thoughtfully. She sent lots of photo updates, and it was clear she genuinely cares and loves my dog. My pickup was delayed due to flight issues, but she was very flexible and understanding with the timing. I highly recommend her!

Dana was so easy to communicate with as far as planning the meet and greet and the whole time while we were gone. We appreciate the daily photos/videos and updates of how our two girls were doing. I am usually hesitant about leaving my dogs while on a trip, but I was less anxious leaving them this time knowing they would be with Dana and her lovely family. I was happy to see that their enrichment treats were almost all gone, and all of their fresh food was used up so I know my girls ate well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dana. We will definitely reach out to her in the future.

My Cinnamon was in great hands with Simeon. This was our first time leaving my fur baby with anyone but Simeon was a great fit and available during the time I needed especially for the holiday. He communicated everyday and was very open to doing a meet and greet a few days before I travel. Upon coming back , I ran into an issue with my car therefore he was very understanding , patient and helpful, so I really appreciate this. Cinnamon enjoyed his time with his friends at Simeon’s place. I saw the small improvement in my fur baby like just going into his crate on his own. I felt assured with Simeon and will definitely be booking again in the future.

This is our second stay with Naimaj, and she helped take care of our very energetic dog while we were away on vacation. It’s hard being away from our fur baby, but Naimaj sends photos and updates which relieves some of the stress and know our boy is in good hands! This time since he was there for so long (2 weeks!) she even gave him a bath, totally unexpected but very sweet. Thanks again Naimaj!

We had a wonderful experience with our pet sitter while we were away. They took excellent care of our dog, Wilson, and it truly gave us peace of mind. We loved receiving so many photos and updates—it was clear Wilson was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. The communication was great, and the care felt very genuine and attentive. We would absolutely recommend them and would happily book again!

I just had Kerissa watch my dog, Kahlua, and she was amazing! Kahlua is 18 years old, blind, deaf, and still super active, so she can be a handful, especially in a new place. Kerissa took such great care of her—she even gave Kahlua multiple baths. It was clear she really paid attention to Kahlua's needs while she was there. Kahlua loves to roam around, and Kerissa was right there with her, making sure she was safe and happy. What I loved most was how communicative Kerissa was. She kept me updated on everything—when Kahlua ate, when she slept, and sent me tons of cute pics and videos. It was so reassuring to see Kahlua having a great time! Thanks, Kerissa, for taking such good care of Kahlua!!

Thank you, Joyce & Brandon, for taking such good care of Koko, making her feel safe & comfy. This was the first time she stayed away from home, but we know she enjoyed the slumber party with new friends. We loved receiving the photos & updates thru the days, of all the fun that Koko had.

We couldn’t be happier with the amazing care Kristi and Jarrod gave to Mango! They treated him like family, and it was clear how much love and attention they put into everything they do. Mango had the best time during his stay and even made a new best friend—Ginny, Kristi and Jarrod’s sweet Australian Cattle Dog. Their kindness, professionalism, and reliability truly stand out. A genuine five-star experience all around!
