Dog lover and clean house sitter

Pet care experience

My basset hound passed 8 years ago. I miss canine company and would love to care for yours! I have a lot of house-sitting experience as well. I do online property management so am home more than I am away. I still have dog bedding and bowls or you can provide your own. I love walking with dogs; it gives me a great excuse to be outside! Look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)!

Lahi was awesome! She sent multiple updates of our animals and they all looked happily loved when we got back.

Lahi did a wonderful job taking care of our dog. Our dogs seem to love her and she took wonderful care of our home. We would recommend her to anyone who has a pet and a house that needs tending.

Great experience! Lahi took great care of my dogs, and my house was clean and ready for me when I came home from my trip. Would definitely recommend Lahi to anyone for their pet sitting needs!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small 16 X 20 studio with a loft, and a futon on the floor. I put a sheet on it and let pets use it or sleep on it, while I sleep in the loft. My yard is unfenced, but I am at the end of a dead end street that backs up against state forest. I will always put dogs on a leash when they go out, unless you assure me they will stick around! When I leave, I can either leave pets inside or put them on a tie-out as you prefer. Any dog not house-trained will need to be in a crate. When I house/pet sit, I prefer to walk the dogs around the neighborhood if it is safe.

Information Lahi V. would like to know about your pet

I prefer bigger dogs, but Iʻm ok with smaller dogs as well! I have been through obedience training with two dogs, and am good at working with them on a leash. Not afraid of any dog, am used to managing dogs that jump and are a handful.

A typical day

I love taking dogs to Kehena Beach or Mackenzie Park for long walks off leash if they are mindful enough. Daily walks are to the ocean front park in Seaview. There are often other dogs there they can socialize with.

I am home a lot. I go to tai chi class once a week, and play pickleball close by a couple times a week. ʻUkulele and hula classes once or twice per week. I like to take walks early before I go out, and before dinner around 5.
