Love dogs!

Pet care experience

I’ve been a dog lover my entire life. We always had dogs growing up. As soon as I was able I adopted two dogs of “my own.” In the early 2000s, I left Corporate America to start my own dog walking and pet sitting company on the mainland. I loved every minute. I’ve had clients ranging from puppies to seniors, healthy to frail, easy going to high maintenance, tiny to huge dogs. I enjoy all of them. Currently I’m a stay-at-home mom and would love to visit and exercise your dog while you’re at work. Do to logistics and my kid’s schedules, I prefer staying in Kihei and Ma’alaea.

Jo is great! She’s very responsive and made an instant connection with my dog. I feel very comfortable leaving my special needs dog in her hands. She is very trustworthy and reliable. Will definitely use her services again.

Jo is very professional and reliable. My 2 dogs loved going on walks with her. She sent me pictures and updates for every walk. I really appreciated knowing that they were well taking care of while I was away. I recommend booking her for your dog or dogs!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
