Local Pet Lover 💗

I have two pets - an 11 year old cat named Malfoy and an 11 year old Chihuahua named Tater. I’ve had Malfoy since he was 3 years old and since then he has lived up to his name completely. He has become very picky in his old age and has developed special health requirements but he is still living his best pampered life. Tater is a very mellow little man but as I adopted him as a senior dog he has health issues and I’ve adapted to make sure he is getting everything he needs and is still able to enjoy his life fully! I’ve had cats and dogs since I was 5 years old. I have also been very involved with several local rescues in my area. I have helped rescue dogs and cats from all backgrounds - rehomed, stray, injured, hoarding cases, etc. I know not every animal is the same so I approach every animal with respect patience and caution. I let them choose how quickly they want to interact because often times rescue animals are a bit more timid and anxious. I have worked with animals of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, ages, and health. I have experience caring for senior animals and animals with special health requirements such has assisted eating and providing oral medication. I work a hybrid schedule so during my remote days I can drop in and give your dog/cat some interaction and exercise. During my days home I can also provide doggy day care. I only host 1 dog for doggy day care or boarding. My fur babies are well loved and I treat every animal as if they are my own to rest assured your fur baby will be well loved and care for too. I know being away from your pets can be stressful so I aim to make it as stressless as possible. I provide photos and videos of your pets during checkins and stays that way you still stay connected with your babies. I look forward to caring for your pets!

Safety, trust & environment

Kahealani did a fantastic job! She gave oral meds to my shy cat, watered the plants, took out the trash. Our cats and home were in great hands. I’d highly recommend her. Thank you so much Kahealani!

This is our second time working with Kahealani and she's just wonderful. She's kind, responsive, and helpful. Our senior cat adores her. Thank you Kahealani for your help!!!

Kahealani was communicative, flexible and patient — all very helpful as we explore transitioning from boarding services to drop-in services to care for the fur baby.

Kahealani is just absolutely incredible. Our sweet senior cat is typically spicy and not a big fan of new people. Kahealani was able to charm her, give her meds and visit with her. Kahealani was a great communicator and very responsive. If we could rate her higher, we would!

Schedule

I work hybrid schedule. So the days I’m home I can drop in frequently and bring your pet outside for some exercise. I take my own dog out very frequently during the day so during day care visit your dog would go out often as well.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Kahealani can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
I have worked with dogs of all sizes. Please let me know if your dog is reactive to anything so that I’m aware of certain triggers or if there are any allergies.
