“Kerissa was amazing! She accommodated a last-minute booking and went above and beyond—from her clear communication and quick responses to thoughtful updates and plenty of photos. We could tell our little Summer adored her! We’re so grateful and would absolutely book her again.”
“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!!”
“As a veterinarian, one could say I'm a little particular with who I trust for my dog 😅😬. I wholeheartedly trust Steven with my pup anyday. You can tell he truly loves working with dogs. I feel like it's less of a job, and more of a passion for him. I never have to worry about heat stroke or any other health issue, as Steven is very well versed and capable of knowing Samson's limits. Without asking, I can tell he brushes Samson everyday by the lack of fur on my floors and presence of fur in my trashcan 😂. I also love the abundance of pictures he takes throughout his visit, as well as the detailed Rover cards showing how far they walked, which puts mind at ease. He always goes above and beyond. Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors over the years, including feeding, walking, playing, giving medications, and overnight stays. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and personalities, and I always focus on keeping them safe, happy, and stress-free. I don’t have pets of my own, so your pet will get my full attention in a calm, quiet environment. I’m available any time — weekdays, weekends, mornings, evenings, and even holidays. I’m flexible and happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pet gets the care they need. Calm, pet-free home with no kids. Your pet gets my full attention in a clean, secure space. I follow care instructions and send regular updates.
“Nicole is amazing! I book her every week for dog walking and she’s always so prompt in her responses. She’s also really good at communicating and I love when she sends me my fur babes rover cards b/c she’s very detailed and I love the photos she takes on their walks 😊”
“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.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years—everything from sweet, laid-back couch potatoes to high-energy chaos gremlins (and I say that lovingly). I used to think I had it all figured out… until I met my current family dog, who’s got a little extra spice in his personality. He’s taught me a lot—about patience, behavior, body language, and how to earn a dog’s trust when it doesn’t come easy. Because of him, I’ve gained real experience working with reactive and aggressive dogs, and I know how to keep things calm, safe, and positive for everyone involved. Whether your dog is a cuddle monster, a shy introvert, or a little rough around the edges, I’m here to meet them where they’re at—with kindness, confidence, and a few treats in my pocket. Let’s make your pup’s day awesome! 🐶✨ ⸻ Let me know if you want to mention any specific training methods or certifications too! I work part-time, which means I have plenty of availability to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. Whether your pup needs midday walks, drop-in visits, or flexible sitting hours, I’m happy to work with your schedule to find the perfect fit. Your pet’s routine is important, and I’ll do my best to stick to it so they feel safe, happy, and right at home—even when you’re away. I’m super adaptable when it comes to caring for pets in their own environment. Whether your home is calm and quiet or full of energy and activity, I’ll respect your space and follow any house rules you have in place. I know every home—and every pet—is different, so I’m happy to adjust to your routine, preferences, and setup to make sure your furry friend feels comfortable and cared for. Just let me know what works best for you, and I’ll take it from there!
About: I bring hands on vet experience, a deep love for dogs of all breeds, and a judgment free approach rooted in patience and respect. I’ve worked with puppies, seniors, and reactive dogs always adapting to their unique needs. As a mom and lifelong dog lover, I understand the importance of trust, consistency, and creating a calm space where animals feel safe and understood. I show up with heart, reliability, and aloha just like I do for my own family. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I’m a stay at home mom with the time, flexibility, and heart to give each dog the attention they deserve. I already structure my days around care whether it’s for my child or my own dog, who truly saved me and that rhythm naturally extends to the pets I walk and visit. I’m home based, reliable, and always nearby, which means I can offer consistent, loving care throughout the week. Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday check-in, or just some playtime and cuddles, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I care for pets by meeting them where they are literally and emotionally. As a dog walker, I focus on creating safe, calm, and enriching experiences right in their own neighborhood. I take time to understand each dog’s personality, energy level, and comfort zone before we head out. Whether it’s a slow stroll for a senior pup or a playful walk for a high-energy dog, I adjust my pace and approach to fit their needs. I always prioritize safety, clear communication with pet parents, and making sure every walk feels like a moment of joy and connection.
“Yasmeen has been great, and my dog just loves her. We are sorry to see her move and Rex will miss his walks. If you are looking for a friendly, warm, caring person to walk your pet you have found one of the best”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and have lots of experience taking of care and providing a safe and happy experience for them. My last fur baby was 18 year old silky terrier and still miss him so not ready emotionally for my own but do enjoy caring for and being around others fur babies. I would appreciate and enjoy taking care of your doggies in my home as I did my own. I work from home remotely but have a flexible schedule, normally evening ours I’m online but will still be in living area with dog(s). I will be available to sit with, walk or play in yard/home throughout day and take care of any needs of dog(s). I have a larger home with fenced in yard, grass for playtime and potty. I also would enjoy and can provide walks with your dog(s) if desired. Also if dog(s) enjoys fetch and outdoors, my backyard has high rock fenced area that is safe for roaming and playing. Interior is spacious and centrally air cooled so very comfortable during warmer days and cozy safe living area.
“Seifullah is incredibly reliable and always able to help me when I'm in a pinch. My dogs love him, he is very responsive, and if he can't help, his daughter will. Excellent dog walker. 5 stars easy.”
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.

Gianni M.
“Gianni is a total dog whisperer and I say that as her sister who’s watched her bond with every pup she meets like they’ve known each other forever. 🐶💫 She’s not just a dog lover she’s a true animal care pro. Gianni worked at a vet clinic, so she knows how to handle pets with both compassion and confidence. Whether it’s giving meds, calming anxious pups, or spotting when something’s off, she’s got the experience and instincts that pet parents dream of. And then there’s her own dog the love between them is next-level. You can see it in the way her dog lights up when she walks into the room, and how Gianni always knows exactly what she needs. It’s the kind of bond that shows you just how deeply she connects with animals. She’s patient, playful, and incredibly responsible. She treats every dog like they’re her own, and I’ve seen her go out of her way to make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and totally adored. If you want someone who’s not only trustworthy and experienced, but also genuinely passionate about animals, Gianni is your girl. Your pup will be in the best hands and probably fall a little in love with her too. 🐾❤️”

Makakilo-Kapolei dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kerissa will absolutely love your pup like her own. She notices the smallest details on walks and is so attentive to your fur baby’s needs. You can feel her passion in every update. When our little Summer got into some mischief, Kerissa went out of her way to make sure she was safe—even offering to take her to the vet. This isn’t the first, second, or third time she’s gone above and beyond, and it certainly won’t be the last. We trust Kerissa completely with our lil Summer!
