I run a small one woman show called Songsaa Hawaii which currently goes with me wherever I go! I just need a decent sized dining room table and I’m in business. This allows for great flexibility and more time at the dog park, beach, giving your pet attention & snuggles. I enjoy sunshine, yoga, reading and relaxing.

A typical day

For most dogs I've watched we start the day with a nice walk so they can smell the world and do their "business". Then they'll have their breakfast and later in the day we'll head out for a nice walk, to the dog park or beach. Fresh air & exercise is important for us all. I love to throw the ball or stick, jog on the beach and socialize with other dogs & their owners (if your dog likes to do that). For cats I'm here to admire and snuggle at their royal command :)

We had the pleasure of having Penny as our house and pet sitter, and we couldn’t be more impressed! She took exceptional care of our dog, Bocce, ensuring he was happy, well-exercised, and loved. Penny walked him regularly, and we could tell from the pictures and updates that he enjoyed every moment with her. Bocce is a one-year-old, big puppy, and Penny was good at working with his puppy needs and all that puppy energy. When we returned home after our three-week vacation, we found our house in perfect condition—spotless and tidy. Penny clearly went above and beyond in maintaining everything, and we felt completely at ease knowing she was looking after our pet and home. We highly recommend Penny to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and responsible sitter!

Penny stayed in our home for 3 weeks to care for our German shepherd puppy. Not only did she take incredible care of our baby, walking him for hours daily and giving him the attention and exercise he needs at his young age, but she also took such good care of our home, plants, garden, fish and more. Her attention to detail, cleanliness and knowledge of what needs to be done (without asking!) was so comforting for us while we were gone to not worry about anything. The peace of mind in having someone trustworthy staying in our home and caring for our pets is unmatched with Penny, and we can’t wait to have you stay in our home again soon!

Penny is reliable, responsible, committed, respectful, clean, and I trust her with my pets and being in my home when I’m away, which is a HUGE deal because! My pets, dogs and cats, are my children and Penny cares for them like they are her own. They LOVE her and are completely happy, comfortable and calm when I leave because Penny is there. I am a bit OCD, so I have a list of “do this/don’t do this” and Penny respects this 100%. If Penny wasn’t available to watch my pets in my home, I would postpone a trip. Honest!

Penny has a warm and gentle presence that endears pets to her easily and quickly. She instills trust and ease due to her reliability and clear communication skills. I highly recommend Penny.
