Information Shelby & Jesse K. would like to know about your pet

We don't judge based on breed. We've owned a Pit Bull and Rottweiler in the past, so we are very comfortable with large Dogs. Would prefer friendly Dogs, non-aggressive.

A typical day

We enjoy taking the pups on long walks around our neighborhood or at parks, beach adventures, swimming, hiking, play fetch, car rides, and especially snuggle time.

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Shelby, my #1 passion is Dogs. I have had a Dog my entire life and would love to watch your Dog(s) for you. I'm from Seattle, WA but I currently live on the Big Island of Hawaii. Your Dog will love staying at my place, 3 acres in Hawaiian Acres, partially fenced with our friendly companion pups named Stinkaroo and Koa. "Stink" is a 50 lb rescue dog, Pitbull,Catahoula & Blue Heeler mix who is currently 4 years old, very friendly and submissive. Koa is a pitbull mix who is 2-1/2years old, also very friendly and has lots of energy. We also have an older pup who we rescued off the street. His name is Zeus and hes about 7 years old. He a bit of a mutt chihuahua, terrier mix. Zeus is smaller about 14 pounds, he is friendly but also can be a grumpy old man, very mellow. We lost 2 of our elder Dogs in 2019 to Cancer. Having new friends come and stay would be a joyful experience for all of us! Myself and my Husband both work from home, so we have lots of time to watch after your Dog and will never be left alone. For overnight visits, we are glad to send you pictures and updates Daily. We also offer drop offs and pick ups. Our Dogs sleep inside on a Dog bed or in our Bed. We do not chain up Dogs and prefer not to watch dogs that need to be chained up. We allow our Pup on the couch, but we are glad to follow all your house rules. If you have any questions, just ask! We'd love to do a meet & greet so we can make sure we're a right fit for you. Keaau, Kurtistown, and Pahoa are all 10 minutes from us. My husband and I work from home so we will have plenty of time to play with your pup, take walks, and potty breaks etc. We have a partially fenced in front yard, as well as a gate on our lanai so your pup can enjoy the nice weather safely. Anytime your pup is with us it will never be alone and will always be on leash when we go for walks, potty breaks etc. Our pups will also be here to keep yours company and happy.

We are so grateful for Shelby’s help with our two large, high-energy dogs. From the moment we met her, we felt completely confident in her care. She is an excellent communicator, keeping in touch before and during our trip—even sending pictures of our dogs having a wonderful time. Her ability to stay full-time at our home was especially valuable for our senior girl, who needs a little extra support. Reliable and responsive—both rare qualities here on the island—Shelby exceeded our expectations. We’ve already booked her for our next trip and feel so lucky to have found her. Thank you, Shelby!

Scouty enjoyed her time with Shelby, Jesse, Koa, Stinkaroo and Zeus! She was well cared for and enjoyed everyone! Thanks to the great care that both Shelby and Jesse took of Scout, we were able to focus on our sad task of saying goodbye to a dear friend that recently passed. We highly recommend Shelby and Jesse! Thank you!
