Professional Animal Caregiver

Pet care experience

Aloha! My name is Rob. My wife, Jojo, and I are avid animal lovers, and we would be honored to care for the beloved furry members of your family. We have extensive experience living with, caring for, and working with animals, dogs in particular. We both grew up caring for both dogs and cats as pets. We moved here to Hawaii in November, 2013, and we both began volunteering immediately at the Hawaiian Humane Society. As volunteers, our duties and responsibilities are dog feeding and kennel cleaning, dog walking, training, grooming, and massage. We're also experienced with handling, feeding, and caring for cats, and many other types of animals too. In addition to the volunteer work, I have been employed as an Animal Caregiver at the shelter for about a year now. My duties are caring, feeding, and cleaning all types of animals (dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, pigs, goats, turtles, ducks, chickens, rats, mice, and many different types of birds too). My wife and I have worked with and cared for many different breeds of dogs, as well as dogs with many different temperaments, energy and activity levels, and with special-needs and senior dogs as well. We love them all, and understand each animal is unique and special, and will give them the highest quality of care. As your houseguests, we will treat you, your pets, and your home with the utmost respect and love, the same way we treat our family and our home. I work full-time at the Humane Society but my schedule varies weekly. My wife is currently volunteering at the shelter, and is not working. Our schedules are flexible enough to accommodate all your needs, whether you need our services for days or nights, weekdays or weekends, and holidays as well. For now, since we are not allowed to have pets where we live, we will be pet-sitting in your home. When our lease ends in a few months, we will be moving to a pet-friendly home. We can then offer you the option of us coming to your home or you bringing your pet to stay with us and our dog(s), as we will definitely be adopting at least one dog from the Humane Society when we can have them as part of our family in our home.

Robert and Jojo are great with dogs because they unconditionally love and respect all animals. They will give your dog the utmost gentle care and full attention. I give them my highest recommendation as I have known them for several years and have witnessed how much animals respond to them. They are genuinely great people to deal with and your dog couldn't be in better hands!

I have known Rob & Jojo for 9 years. They are two of the most concerned, loving, sincere people I have ever encountered. They love ALL animals and part of their life's work is the relief of suffering in the Animal Kingdom. It is remarkable to see how even strange or stray critters trust them. These two are special...you'll see. I trust them with everything that is important to me.

Robert and Jojo are both dog trainers at the Hawaiian Humane Society. They are excellent with dogs. They are kind and caring with all animals. They are also very attentive to the dogs, especially when a a dog need a little more love and attention. Know that your doggie family member will be in good hands with Robert and Jojo.

It is my pleasure to write this testimonial for Rob and his wife Jojo. I know them from the Hawaii Humane Society where both provide a higher level of care to the animals that pass through there. Both are also undergoing dog training instruction from the trainer Andrew. Rob and Jojo genuinely care for the dogs they are responsible for and this should provide great peace of mind for anyone choosing to employ them to house and dog sit. Please feel free to contact me to validate this should you need to.
