Olinda pup sanctuary

Aloha :) My dogs and I would love to have your dog stay at our house in Olinda! We have a fenced yard and a few (partially fenced) acres of land beyond that for the pups to play and fetch the ball (depending on your comfort level with that, of course). Delilah is a sweet 4 year old golden retriever who loves equally to play and chill. Bear is a 2 year old golden Aussie who *always* loves to play and love on other pups! We live 10 minutes from both Olinda forest and Makawao forest so we usually go for morning walks there 4-5 days week. We would love to bring your pup along with us!

We are so grateful we found Nicole! Our usual sitter canceled right before a trip, and with our senior dog being such an important part of our family, we were nervous about leaving him with someone we didn’t know. From the start, Nicole was responsive, kind, and reassuring. She kept us updated with messages and photos, took him on hikes, and treated him with so much care and attention. It was clear he was happy, comfortable, and well loved while we were away. Knowing he was in such good hands gave us complete peace of mind and allowed our family to truly enjoy our vacation. We would highly recommend Nicole and would happily trust her with our dog again in the future.

We are so grateful for Nicole! She took amazing care of our dog Ginger and she came back happy and exhausted 🧡 She even started eating on the first day, which is unusual for her in a new environment. Nicole’s two dogs are the sweetest and they all had a great time together. Her yard is huge and amazing for runs and romps. She sent pictures and we felt at ease knowing Ginger was in good hands. 10/10, highly recommend.

Nicole was absolutely amazing pet sitter! Me and my boyfriend had to go to Oahu for a 24 hour Trip and needed a pet sitter desperately last minute and Nicole came to our rescue. We went to meet her and she was very knowledgeable and comfortable with our two mícro bullies! Also her personal pets were awesome with them and playful. She also gave updates really often which was perfect because my boyfriend was nervous about leaving his fur babies with a sitter for the 1st time . So I loved that. Thanks again Nicole ! We will be booking you again !

Beau's first overnight with Nicole and I know he had an amazing visit. Nicole took the time to meet Beau before our visit and introduced us to her beautiful puppy, Delilah. Communication during the stay was great, we couldn't be happier. Thanks, Nicole and Delilah!

Schedule

I work from home during the day. I’m never gone for more than a 5-6 hour time frame at a time and on top of that, we have a doggy door for the dogs to go in and out freely in our fenced yard.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard for the dogs to hang out in and a few acres beyond that (partially fenced) for them to run around and get their energy out in. I’m always watching the dogs when they are beyond the fully fenced yard. I will also make sure you are comfortable with your dog in this situation before doing so.

Pets

A typical day

I would love to start out each day either throwing the ball in the yard or with a walk in the Olinda or Makawao forest. The rest of the day the dogs have a ton of space here to run around, play with toys cuddle and rest.
