“Buttercup had a great time! Thanks for being so kind, conscientious, and professional. We will definitely be back, your house and yard are a perfect setup and communication was amazing! Five star experience 🤩”


“We booked at the very last minute & Gustavo was able to take out Dinky. He even went out of his way to meet us at our hotel. He provided us with updates as to how Dinky was doing. We would book again with him!”


“Dee was wonderful with our puppy Izzie. She stayed at our house and brought her dog Judd, who Izzie loved. Dee (and Judd) have a calming presence and made Izzie feel comfortable right away. Dee sent photo updates and was highly communicative. I would definitely recommend Dee if you are looking for a trusted companion for your fur baby.”


“We were initially hesitant to use a sitter for daycare for our 10 wk old puppy, but Jessica eased our worries and took great care of him. Our boy came home all tuckered out and clearly had a wonderful time! Would 100% recommend and use her services again.”


“I can't recommend this Katherine and Jordan enough! I had to leave my dog, Kira, while my dad had surgery, and from the moment we arrived, I could tell she was in great hands. Kira has separation anxiety, and I was really worried about how she'd handle being away from me, but they were so understanding, supportive, and flexible. They even invited us for a meet-and-greet on short notice, which made me feel much more at ease. The place itself is amazing—spacious and full of outdoor areas where dogs can run and explore. Kira felt at home almost immediately, and it was such a relief to see her so comfortable. They genuinely cares about the dogs, and it showed in how they interacted with Kira and me and how they took the time to ensure she was settling in well. Having her in such a safe, loving environment really took a lot of stress off me during a difficult time. I will definitely be bringing Kira back in the future—she had such a great experience! I am so so grateful to have found this place in Haiku! Thank you for everything!”


“Leslie did great with Liko and she took great care in trying to distract him, soothe him and make him comfortable in my absence! He is a high anxiety dog and he was totally cared for by Leslie! Thanks for sharing Honey and caring for Liko! 🥰”


“Rachel took the best care of our pups and provided us with updates throughout the day, which really put us at ease. She has a really nice yard and also took them out for walks. I loved the cute video she sent of the whole doggie crew going for a walk. Our dogs had so much fun making friends and it gave us great comfort to see them so loved upon. I highly recommend Rachel to take care of your pets! Mahalo Rachel for going over and beyond!”

She and Neala really seemed to get along but more than that, we were really busy having a wedding and decided a little late that Neala might be better off away from such a big crowd and stealing food from plates, and Madilyn came to our rescue. Will definitely use her services again.”

Laura M.
“Where do I begin? Laura has been taking care of all my dog needs for years! She treats my dogs as her own, if not better! She has been one of the few people I’ve met in my entire life where I can genuinely feel assured my dogs are being taken care of when I’m not around. That feeling of safety and security is second to none, especially when it comes your pets. She knows what she’s doing and she cares about what she’s doing. I highly recommend her services to anyone from any walk of life in Hawai’i. My only warning to those debating on booking Laura is making sure you’re okay with your dog having a better mommy 😂”
Over 75 pet parents in Makawao have booked doggy day care
Makawao dog parents share their Rover experiences
Gustavo was wonderful! My dog is an elderly dog recovering from two surgeries and I have felt fiercely protective of her as she struggles to recover. Gustavo was warm and patient with her and she felt at home with him in his space and started to explore immediately. After I left, it didn’t take long for her anxiety to settle and Gustavo was kind enough to offer me a few updates to reassure me. Today, the day after she spent time with him, her nervous system is settled, which is such a wonderful gift (she does not do well alone at all, and it can take days for her to recover if I leave her in her crate for even an hour). It’s wonderful to find someone who I can trust with my beloved pup. I will definitely seek out Gustavo’s support in the future if and when I need it!
