Pet care seamlessly intertwines with my daily and weekly routines, harmonizing perfectly with my lifestyle as a business owner and fitness enthusiast. Each day, my flexible schedule as the founder of Kona Girl Fitness allows me the freedom to integrate pet sitting into my life, whether it's for an overnight stay or a day visit. Mornings often start with a refreshing run or walk, a joy not just for me but for the energetic dogs under my care. Throughout the week, my pet sitting aligns with my work-from-anywhere approach, ensuring that I'm always available for the pets' needs, be it playtime, feeding, or just some cuddle time. This blend of activities means that the pets I care for are treated to a dynamic, loving environment, mirroring the healthy, active lifestyle I advocate. On average, I spend about 5 days in a stay, fully immersing myself in providing a home away from home for these furry friends. This integration of pet care into my daily life is not just a service I offer; it's a passion that brings joy and balance to my days.

Information Lisa H. would like to know about your pet

Understanding your pet's unique needs and preferences is crucial for providing the best care possible. Before pet sitting, I like to gather as much information as I can about your furry friend. This includes their daily routines, dietary restrictions or preferences, any medications or special health requirements, their favorite activities, and how they interact with other animals and people. Knowing these details ahead of time helps me create a personalized care plan that ensures your pet feels comfortable, safe, and happy in my care. It's all about making the experience as stress-free and enjoyable as possible for your pet, giving you peace of mind while you're away.

A typical day

When it comes to spending time with dogs, I love to keep them active and engaged. Our days are filled with long, scenic walks where we can explore for miles, perfect for those dogs who enjoy a leisurely stroll or a brisk adventure. For the more energetic pups, I incorporate sessions of fetch, turning a simple game into a fun-filled, tail-wagging workout. And for those dogs who share my passion for running, I'm always ready to pick up the pace and go for runs, ensuring they get ample exercise and excitement. Each activity is tailored to the dog's preferences and needs, making sure they return home happily tired, well-exercised, and content>

Run, Play, Stay: Lisa’s Pet Care

Pet care experience

For decades, I've been the go-to pet sitter for family, friends, and neighbors, building a reputation for dependable and loving pet care. While previously balancing this passion with a full-time job, my schedule was more limited. However, now as a proud owner of Kona Girl Wellness, working flexibly from anywhere, I've expanded my pet sitting services. I regularly assist a growing client base, often staying overnight, averaging about 5 days per stay. As an avid runner, I bring an extra dose of joy to the pets I care for. They get excited knowing that with me, they're in for their much-loved long walks. This active lifestyle not only keeps them healthy but also happy. My commitment to providing exceptional care is reflected in the glowing referrals from my clients. Entrusting your beloved pet to my care means they'll receive not just a sitter, but a companion who understands and caters to their needs for physical activity and affection.

Lisa was absolutely fabulous! She is very reliable and showed our pups lots of love while we went out of town for a wedding. She gave us many updates so we knew our pets were doing well while we were gone. I definitely recommend Lisa and will be using her services again in the future.

This was the first time we ever used a pet sitter that was not a friend or family. We were extremely happy with the wonderful care Lisa gave to our Penny Lane! She spent a lot of time with her and took her on daily long walks. She sent us lots of pictures and updates. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was happy and safe. We would highly recommend Lisa to care for your pet!

Lisa, house sat for our Tri-paw’s bull terrier Woozy. Lisa took terrific care of Woozer. She feed her, walked her, cuddled with her and stayed overnight. Lisa provided pictures ever day and updated us as to how their days were proceeding. All of these allowed us to relax, knowing Woozer was in good hands. We highly recommend Lisa and we will engage her for our next house sitting and or daily walking needs. Thank you Lisa!

Lisa has done an excellent job with good availability for Maggie taking pics of her each visit and taking her out for plenty of playtime in the yard. Lisa took the time to understand Maggie's feeding and medication instructions as well. Thanks Lisa!
