“Arianah is a wonderful sitter for Levi. She always gets him to eat all his food and takes care of him like her own dogs! Levi loves hanging out with her when I have to work.”

About: I’ve been hired throughout the years to dog walk, day sit, dog board and do basic wash & nail trims. I love working with dogs and want to bring my services to Rover for those in need of a trustworthy person. I have two small dogs myself and we would love the opportunity to work with you. I work from home so it provides me a flexible schedule for drop-ins and dog walks. For boarding services, I live in an apartment with my two small dogs & husband. We can board up to two small dogs at a time alongside our own. They will have access to a fenced yard and regular bathroom breaks/walks. A typical day in my house looks like waking up, going for a morning walk and then eating breakfast. Then it’s nap time and relaxation for the dogs while I work. Our nighttime routine is dinner followed by a bathroom break. My dogs sleep in their crate when I have to leave the house or when it's time for bed.
“Alexandra was really nice and updates us regularly. We were worried taking Budders to a stranger because he’s a shy dog and isn’t good with strangers but Alexandra knows how to handle Budders.”

“I was a bit nervous since this was my first time using Rover, but Daisy was incredible! She took great care of Tiny, sent updates, and made the whole process so easy. Will book her again😊”

About: I’ve had a family pet for 15 years, and my own doggy and cat for the past 8 years. I decided to join rover when I realized how difficult it was to find a reliable and inexpensive service last minute when scrambling to find someone. Your puppies will be in best company with my Kaia, 8yr old chihuahua terrier and my 3year old orange tabby. I will take them on long walks before work and again when returning home. I live in an apt right on the Ala wai, very close to two big parks. They willl be allowed to sleep with me. I will only board from one family at a time, however I do have a chihuahua terrier mix and an orange tabby.
“Great care for my dog, and I’d highly recommend Summer for anyone who needs a friend for their dog. Very responsive, sent pictures, and costly to great care.”

“Eon Ju was great with Huckleberry, and sent me lots of pictures, a video, and messages on how he was doing. Huckleberry also took a liking to Eon Ju right away and was so excited to stay with her. Eon Ju was also very responsive and understanding in meeting our specific needs. I highly recommend her.”

“Carlin is great. It’s so obvious that she loves dogs really and that’s the most important thing for me when trusting someone w my own. Communicative and flexible with time is also a big plus.”

About: I have taken care of pets for friends and family and friends of friends. Just like when I teach in schools, I provide a safe and welcoming space. I have experience walking, hiking, feeding, giving baths, giving medicine, and teaching new tricks to dogs. I have cared for cats as well. In my adult years I've had three dogs of my own and two cats. I have used Rover before for my dog, and now would love to provide great service for other peoples' dogs and cats, like how Rover sitters did for my dog. I value communication and look forward to sending my clients photos frequently of all the fun their pet is having when being taken care of by me. I have a baby, so I am home a lot. My schedule is very flexible. I can provide lots of love, playtime, and walks for your pet. If your pet stays with me, your pet will receive frequent walks as exercise is important to me for the pet's health and my own. Lots of love, treats, and cuddles to give here!
“Excellent care - so communicative, sent photos while I needed to be out, and my dog was returned to me so calm and happy. She was clearly well loved and cared for by Lovina and her partner. As a dog parent, I could not ask for any better! Highly recommend!”

“Aris took such great care of my little fur baby. She was very nurturing and so kind. She sent updates often and gave my baby all of her attention. I would definitely recommend! Thank you Aris for taking care of Sammie! She had so much fun with you! ❤️”

“We loved our stay with Selena! She sent pictures and videos throughout the day and made sure Benny had a wonderful time. Benny got along great with her pup Gizmo and we look forward to seeing them again!”

“Deanne is always great, Mei Mei is always happy and excited to see her. She sends lots of pictures and updates throughout the day and is always responsive. Very detailed with care.”

“Daniel was super flexible. We had to find someone new last minute to do a doggy daycare for our pup, and he was quick to respond and super caring for her! He sent photos and videos of taking her on a walk. I would highly recommend Daniel to watch your pup :)”
“Scott was so great with Kona and flexible with my schedule changes. He was patient, understanding, attentive, and informative of Kona’s time. He shared lots of pics, which made me feel at ease leaving Kona in his care. And he worked on some basic training with her. Scott and his family took such excellent care of her, couldn’t have asked for better.”

About: I’ve always had a dog in the family since I was young. I’ve had dogs from Yorkies to Pitbulls. I currently own a Aussie mix as well as outdoor cats. I give all my animals the extra time and attention they deserve I have a loose schedule currently therefore I have lots of time to enjoy my pets and others. I enjoy being outside and watching dogs have the best time outdoors. I make sure the dogs are always fenced in if outside at my own home. They are allowed on the couches, bed, and carpet. I make sure they are feed with treats so often. They are in a safe environment with me.

“Heather was amazing. We have a younger pup with separation anxiety and a lot of energy, and every night he came home from daycare happy and tired. The best review I can leave is the one that our dog gave each morning - he was excited to stay with her and wagged all the way up to her door. She was very communicative, supportive, and willing to work with our dog’s needs. I would highly recommend heather.”

“I can not say enough great things about Luis and Christine!! They truly love animals and could not have provided a more welcoming and loving environment for my dog. Christine baked homemade,nutritional treats specific for my dog :) Luis and Christine not only took my pup on several walks throughout the day, but took her on adventures throughout the island! They really are not your average sitter, but so much more! I hope to book again as they really are amazing people.”

Makiki dog parents share their Rover experiences
We are so thankful for Aaron and Ellie. They took great care of Aina and made her feel comfortable even though she was nervous at first. She settled in quickly and had a great time. I could tell she was happy and relaxed. Highly recommend them and will definitely book again❤️

Eon Ju was great with Huckleberry, and sent me lots of pictures, a video, and messages on how he was doing. Huckleberry also took a liking to Eon Ju right away and was so excited to stay with her. Eon Ju was also very responsive and understanding in meeting our specific needs. I highly recommend her.

Amy is a great dog sitter! She took care ok my dog, Kai! He immediately took a liking to Amy the moment we met her for the first time! I always trust my dog’s instincts and I already knew Kai was in great hands! I will definitely contact her again whenever I need a dog sitter 😄

Our dog Coco, is 15 years old. Recently, even a short time alone makes her anxious—she cries and becomes restless—so we realized we couldn’t leave her by herself and started looking for a dog sitter. Sunny was incredibly responsive and had such a warm and kind demeanor. From the very first day, Coco felt Sunny’s kindness and love, and she was completely relaxed, just as she is when she’s with us. We could see this through the photos and videos Sunny sent us, which gave us great peace of mind. Over the next few days, Coco continued going to Sunny’s home, and it was as if she had a second house—she felt completely at ease. While taking care of Coco, Sunny went above and beyond. She sent us multiple updates throughout the day with photos, videos, and messages, patiently hand-feeding Coco when she refused to eat, taking her for walks, and treating her like her own dog. We are beyond grateful! And without a doubt, we would love to ask Sunny for her help again in the future. Thank you Sunny!
