Dog Boarding in Makawao, HI

“Shanelle is the best!!! My dog stayed with her for a week and I got updates and pictures of a very very happy dog every day. Shanelle is very responsive and always messaged me right back. It was clear she treated my dog like a member of her family. If you are looking for peace of mind when looking for care for your pet, look no further.”

“We absolutely love Bridget and Tiger and their family. Our girls love them and are always happy to go to their house. I appreciate all of the communication and pictures of our girls’ day. They are well taken care of, receive hugs from their daughters, and are well loved.”

“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.”

“My first time having someone else watch my dog was with Jessica. I was so nervous especially since my pup can sometimes struggle with anxiety. She updated me throughout the day on how he was doing and took the time to send me photos. I felt like he was in great and loving hands and I felt like my fur baby was safe with her. I am very happy I decided to go with Jessica and have booked her again in a few months ♥️.”

“Hasen is incredibly considerate and thoughtful. She spends a lot of time with your pet and takes the effort to understand their needs. Before my cat Hank arrived, she asked detailed questions about him and even suggested bringing an item of my clothing and Hank’s favorite toys to help him feel more at ease in the new environment. Hansen went the extra mile by preparing a separate room for Hank to gradually adjust to his surroundings. She sent me daily updates with photos and messages to keep me informed about Hank’s status. When it was time to pick Hank up, she had everything neatly packed, including the litter box and other supplies, making it super convenient for me to take him home. Hansen’s service is truly outstanding, and I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter!”

“They were seriously the sweetest ever. Their dog Maile was very easy going with Zeus and they warmed up to each other quite quickly. We had to leave on a short notice and left Zeus with their ohana for a few nights. Zeus was very good with them and in their home. Josephine & Aric sent us updates throughout the days and took Zeus walking, did playtime and showed him so much love and attention. We honestly wouldn't choose anyone else to care for him again. They were very close to our home and made drop off and pick up so convenient. They absolutely love animals and you can see that when you meet them and their fur baby Maile. I know it gets hard to find that special someone you can trust with your fur baby, but this couple was THE BEST and have so much respect. Mahalo <3”

“Jurassic Park B&B/ Katherine was so wonderful. We popped over to another island for two nights and left Ziggy with them. Katherine immediately was so calming upon drop off and Ziggy loved the yard and was already exploring when I left. Throughout the stay Katherine sent me videos and pictures along with messages about Ziggy. When we came to pick Ziggy up he was so happy and we were so happy. Overall we will be using them again and cannot recommend them enough. So comforting knowing that Ziggy was safe and loved while we were away.”

“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!”

“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.”

“Beau's first overnight with Nicole and I know he had an amazing visit. Nicole took the time to meet Beau before our visit and introduced us to her beautiful puppy, Delilah. Communication during the stay was great, we couldn't be happier. Thanks, Nicole and Delilah!”

About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds since before I was 10 years old! I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like family. Whether it’s helping a new puppy learn basic commands or giving an older dog the gentle support they need, I tailor my care to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I also stay in close communication with owners, sending regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. I’m working part-time, so I’ll have a lot of time to dedicate to your fur babies! I regularly spend time with my cat and my caged animals and spent every waking moment with my previous dog, who just passed over a year ago. I have a fenced yard and a lot of room for your dog to play in! I can easily crate your dog if needed, but I allow dogs inside and on furniture as well!

“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!”

“Very grateful to Marion and Ohana! My beloved elderly dog is in such great hands! Marion has cared for Kailani multiple times before. My dog recently had cancer removal surgery and requires meds ever day. This time has been a special blessing for Kailani to visit her second home while my family was away. Thank you Marion! Segundo Ohana”

About: DOODLE SPECIALIST 🐶I’ve had dogs (and all animals actually) throughout my life from childhood, college and now as an empty nester, I’ve trained my own service pup and have a beautiful home with fenced yard and walking paths all in my neighborhood. I have an Aussie doodle mix so have extensive experience with HIGH ENERGY animals who require lots of activities and exercise beyond just a “walk around the block”. I’ve also trained my own dog to run on an indoor treadmill, do brain puzzles and engaging sniff and search drills, off leash commands, etc! Gotta keep it interesting for them, and I personally love the challenge and snuggle rewards after. Please note, I do not take on any aggressive dog breeds including pit bull or Rottweiler mixes. I love them all but they generally are not compatible with my doodle. Will consider on a case by case basis but a meet and greet is a prerequisite prior to any new boarding requests. Mahalo for considering us to take care of your fur babies in our home💕 When I’m not traveling, I am at home full time and have ample free time to dedicate to loving on fur babies, giving them the attention and service they need day or night. I have a large private home with a fenced in yard. I also have a swimming pool (also fenced) for the water babies who want to play outside on hot days or after a long walk or jog.. Also I have plenty of inside soft safe places and couches for naps, older dogs and those with a more relaxed demeanor.

“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!!😊😊😊😊”
