About: I have two years of experience taking care of small and large dogs. I provide patient and attentive care to each dog’s individual needs. I am also an experienced dog owner having owned two Labrador retrievers. I am currently available for drop ins and dog walking visits Monday - Friday. I am willing to see multiple pets on the same day. I am flexible and willing to work around each clients schedule. I will ensure safety when taking care of my client’s pets by following all instructions given to me and ensuring safety at all times. The dog will always remain leashed on walks and during and after walks each dog will be given water to cool down. I will provide photos of your dog during our walk/visit to keep clients updated on how their dog is doing and to help them feel relieved knowing their dog is being safely taken care of.

About: I'm amazing with animals. (Dogs specifically.) I can say this confidently, because I'm able to understand and reciprocate communication without a single word being used. I've been attacked before, and stayed because I understand that misbehavior probably has a deeper issue than just wanting to cause pain. - Simply put. I love seeing animals happy within a loving environment. But enough with the bragging and sob stories.😂 If you need a walker, a babysitter, or someone to love the bad behavior out of your furbaby, please reach out! I have 100% open availability. I'm currently working on breaking into the freelance lifestyle, so my flexibility allows for last-minute changes and needs! Open to all days and times! I live in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful but unfenced yard. Your place is honestly (probably) better than mine. I'm a single independent woman with both professional and personal references - can be available to sit at the owner's location with ease of mind guaranteed!

“Lyndi was awesome (as usual)! This is the third time booking Lyndi - she's always quick to respond, super dependable and I can tell my dog loves going on walks with her. It's not always easy leaving your pup behind when you go out of town but knowing Lyndi was there for him, put our minds at ease. She's absolutely amazing and I'm so grateful she takes such great care of our furbaby.”

About: What makes me stand out is that my business is insured for the safety and health of all pets in my care. I stay in frequent communication with pet owners to ensure that their beloved pet is safe, comfortable and shown the same love and care as they are accustomed to. I have cared for senior dogs and pay close attention to any behaviors or signs of distress that deviate from what their owners say is their norm. I have a car and have experience with vet er for my own guineapigs and am able to take immediate steps to get pets any vet care they need. I have taken care of dogs, cats and guineapigs. Drop off Time: ** For new clients, please drop off dogs prior to 5pm to allow pet time to settle in before night time. I work from home doing basic remote accounting work while I finish my online courses to pursue my CPA. I am home most of the time aside from stepping out to grocery shop and enjoy beautiful hawaii here and there. It is important that all dogs in my care are crate trained for their safety when I must make short trips out, lasting no longer than 3 hours, averaging 2 hours. (no dog will be crated that has not been crate trained. Dogs not showing any signs of destructive separation anxiety, such as scratching at doors, will not need to be crate trained. Dogs can be expected to be walked at 6am for 30 to 45 minutes depending on how much they like to sniff around. Then another potty break at 10am, 2pm another longer walk at 5:30pm and a final potty break between 8-9pm before bed. I always make sure dogs pee and poop the amount of times is normal for them and keep taking them outside until they go successfully. Night time is usually 9pm-10pm. Dogs that need extra toy play time get to play, fresh water ready for the night. For safety, my business is insured so all pets in my care are covered in any emergencies. The main area dogs will be at is in the living room safe from all things they may be tempted to chew on, knock over or swallow. There is lots of natural light and fresh pacific breeze coming off the mountains into my apartment that dogs love to sploot out on cool tile by the screen doors. Makes for excellent photos! Leashes and harnesses: I inspect all equipment clients provide as pet safety on walks is my top priority. Please insure that you provide safe collars, harnesses and leashes that will ensure your dog will be safe on walks. This means that they cannot slip out of their harness or collar and run off. On Walks: Regardless of your dog's past experiences with other dogs, I will refrain from allowing your dog interact with any dogs unless specifically authorized. I also watch for dogs sniffing around for dangerous "treats" and keep provided treats for if a dog grabs something they are not suppose to. Dogs will never be off leash in my care for any moment of time. This is to keep my insurance on them intact and will make sure that they safe.

“Kristi was absolutely wonderful! This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous, but she immediately put us at ease. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly great with our dogs. They came back happy, calm, and well-exercised after their walk, which says it all. Kristi followed all instructions perfectly and treated our dogs like they were her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience and will definitely be booking her again. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had a family pet for 18 years, and my own doggy and cat for the past 11 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, 11yr old chihuahua terrier and my 6year 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.

About: I have had pets my entire life. My family has had dogs, cats, and Guinea pigs. I’ve grown up pet sitting for neighbor’s and friend’s animals. They relied on me to feed, walk, give medications, and play with their pets. From puppies to seniors, I can take care of any age. Pets complete my life, and I’d love to take care of your furry friends! I am currently a Marine Biology Graduate Student at the University of Hawai’i at Mānoa. My schedule can be pretty flexible according to the needs of your pets. I am free on weekends, and I am free weekday mornings and evenings. I am a very responsible person who has had experience in both child and pet care. I will ensure your pet is safe and happy, and I will meet all of their needs!

About: I have had dogs since I was born and always helped with them. Just a few years ago I leashed trained my grandmas dog and taught her commands with hand signals. I do currently work part time, but I have plenty of time to work around that to visit pups! I can really come any time as my other job is flexible’ I follow the owners rules to make sure their dog is getting exactly what they are hoping for. I love to give lots of scratches and cuddles if allowed!

About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting for 40+ families across Oahu and have years of hands-on experience working with animals both through pet care and my job at a veterinary clinic. This has given me a strong background in animal health, behavior, and caring for pets with different needs, including medication and special routines. I really enjoy building trust with both pets and their owners and making sure every animal feels safe and comfortable while their family is away. You can also check out Emma’s Pet Pals on Instagram to see photos and testimonials from past clients. I am a full time worker therefore it's best to let me know your pets schedule to ensure I am a good fit with their schedule. If notified early in advance I am always open to adjusting my schedule to best suit your pets needs. Knowledge is key! I have experienced so much in the animal industry and I think it's best to know everything about your pet from their behavior, their allergies, their past history & your expectations.

About: I’ve dog sat while living in Japan (where I am originally from) and have experience caring for different dogs and personalities. I’m calm, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s needs and routine. I focus on making dogs feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Starting June 6, I’ll have a very flexible schedule and will be available most days. I can adjust easily to meet pet care needs, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnights when needed. I follow the owner’s instructions closely and keep pets on their normal routine for feeding, walks, and care. I make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and not stressed. I’m respectful of the home and always keep things clean and tidy while I’m there.

“Denise is a great help with walking our dog Coco. She’s reliable and communicative and we feel totally comfortable trusting her with our pet.”

About: I have taken care of and had pets since I was young. From dogs and cats, to birds and reptiles, I am the perfect candidate to get your dog, or anything else the care and attention it needs. I am very active and outside, and I love hiking, running, and walking around in general. Most importantly, I am very flexible. I would be happy to bring your pet as my companion for an adventure. I have been able to take care of puppies, any size dog, dogs with high energy, and even dogs with disabilities. I am very flexible, and usually spend at least some of my day walking, biking, running, and being outside. I prioritize pet care in my daily and weekly routine with my own pets, and make it a point to take them walking and take them everywhere I go. I have a car which makes it much easier to get around with them. I love taking them to socialize in public, grab a coffee, or take them running outside. When I housesit, I tend to spend a lot of time with the pets, and take more time to spend at home rather than having a busy schedule. With walks, I take them every day, and I cuddle them, feed them, socialize them, and clean up after them whenever is needed. In my own home I take care of my pets based on their personality and needs.

About: Hello there! My name is Ubaldo, and I’m excited to be back on Rover after taking a hiatus. I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs through both Rover and working at a dog daycare center, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure every pet feels safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every dog like they’re my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m currently not working (in between jobs) but I do still live an active lifestyle. Once I have a client scheduled, I shift my other activities so that I can prioritize your pets. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, exercise, medication, and any special instructions, while giving them plenty of attention, supervision, and affection.

“Malia was professional, punctual and communicative throughout the process. Highly recommend her! We’ll certainly be using her services again! Thank you Malia for caring for our dog, Rio.”
