“Yuet and Irene took good care of my little one. I would definitely use them again.I was happy with the accommodations and the cleanliness of the area where the dogs are kept.”

“This is our Nala's second stay with Jacque and her family. They did a great job taking care of her with patience and understanding, as she is not quite the warm and fuzzy type with new people. She had an experience with a trainer when she was a puppy which left her very fearful and sometimes aggressive towards anyone outside of our family. With lots of patience, Jacque and her family were able to peel some of that fear away. All the pictures and videos of her playing with other dogs and sitting on the couch and hanging out with the family is a huge deal for Nala and for our family. We are grateful and were able to visit family off-island with peace of mind. Mahalo for helping our Nala to grow in trusting others and for caring for her.”


“Greg is really good with communication. He sent many pictures, left comments and answered my question while we were away for vacation. He took great care of my dog Coco. He looked happy in the pics, especially with Zephyr! Coco came back home same as before. Thank you Greg for taking care of Coco for such a long time!”


“I had to find a very last minute sitter for 9 nights for my pupper and Senne was so accommodating and welcoming. When I met her I felt like I didn’t have to worry. She was receptive of my instructions and sent me updates the entire week. I could tell she loved having my pup there. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Thank you Senne!”



“Piya was amazing with Buddy! She sent video and pics of him throughout the stay and was very prompt in her replies to us! We wish she wasn’t moving so she could watch buddy again!”


“Angela and her boys took wonderful care of my lab while we were away for a week. It was comforting to know she was well taken care of. I enjoyed the pictures Angela would send, her communication was timely and very helpful. Would definitely use her services again.”


“Malone loved his time with Angela (he came home very tired after all the fun). Angela is very nice, sent lots of photos and videos, and has a huge yard for our active doggy.”


“This was our first time using Rover, and we had a great experience working with Kyrie. She took good care of our dog and I could tell he was so happy and loved with her. She sent us pictures and videos of him having so much fun with her and her family. There was lots of fetch, adventures, and even a bath. We highly recommend her services and are already planning on booking future stays with her soon!”


“Denise is great! Simon had such a great time at the farm with them. Super easy to communicate and quick responses. Really appreciate them for taking care of Simon.”


“Jennifer was so wonderful! She was communicative and easy to book. We did a meet and greet beforehand and they welcomed Jango and made him feel so comfortable and at home. They provided us updates and pictures of Jango during his stay. Highly recommend booking with them! Will definitely book again! Thank you!”


“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was very responsive and sent the best pics during our vacation. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter in Kailua. Thank you again for watching Milo!”


“The best pet sitter ever! My two dogs had an amazing time with her! I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring and capable hands, which allowed me to truly relax and enjoy my vacation. She knew I had so much anxiety leaving them with strangers, but she made sure to send me extra pictures and updates. She treated them like her own, and I could tell they were happy and well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking again! thank you so much!”


About: Aloha! I recently moved to O’ahu, and while this has been an exciting new chapter, it's also been bittersweet. One of my dogs passed away during our move here, and I had so many Hawaiian adventures planned for him. While I'm not ready to bring another dog into my life just yet, I would love to care for yours and share the love and adventures I had planned. I've had pets for over 15 years and they have always been family to me. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well-loved when you're away. I’ve also spent time volunteering at animal shelters, caring for dogs with all kinds of personalities. I understand that every dog is unique. Whether it's long walks, playtime, brushing, or just relaxing company, I'll treat your pets as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and making sure they have the best care while you're away. I work full-time during the week and plan to care for pets over the weekend (or holiday weekends). This way I can give your pet my full attention with plenty of walks, playtime and snuggles while you’re away. I don’t have a fenced-in yard, but I make up for it with plenty of walking paths nearby and lots of opportunities for potty breaks. Your pet will get plenty of fresh air, exercise and attention while staying with me.

“Our fur baby had an adventurous stay with McKenley with her pug cause they went on a hike and walks not all sitters do that. We are greatful that we chose her to watch after our fur baby. Thank you!”


“Dale and Lauren are wonderful, highly recommend! Our pup always has the best time with them, they give her lots of exercise and attention and keep us updated with photos and videos!”


“Joey did an amazing job sitting our pup over a long weekend. He was very attentive to the dog's needs and communicated diligently with us while we were off island. Definitely recommend his services to anyone needing care for their pet! Thanks Joey!”


“Jessica was absolutely amazing with my two furbabies! One who never slept out and the other who didn’t get along with other dogs, she understood them and their needs! And to top that off, she took this job with only a day’s notice! I recommend and have her saved for future trips 🫶🏼”


“Natsuko came through for us after our previous sitter had a family emergency and canceled just a few days before our trip. She was easy to communicate with and took the time to meet us quickly and was very easy going about taking dogs at the last minute. She took excellent care of our senior dog, who struggles with mobility issues and needs meds. She also made sure our 2 year old lab enjoyed time with her big dogs and kept her busy every day. They came home happy and smelling good from a bath. Will definitely ask Natsuko to help us again next time! Definitely recommend!”


About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for wagging tails and happy paws. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy senior dog, I’m here to provide personalized, loving care while you’re away—so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in great hands. I offer patient, attentive care tailored to your pet’s needs—whether that means long walks, belly rubs, or simply quiet companionship. I understand that every pet is unique. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my week around being available for walks or drop-ins, and I make sure each pet in my care gets the time, attention, and love they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening playtime, I plan my schedule to prioritize pet needs first. I'm dependable, flexible, and happy to accommodate each pet’s routine to keep them happy and comfortable. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I take time to understand their routines, habits, and needs. I follow your instructions closely and do my best to replicate the environment they’re used to so they feel secure and relaxed. In your home, I respect your space as if it were my own—keeping things clean, locked, and safe at all times. I always double-check leashes, gates, and doors to ensure pets stay secure, and I never leave animals unattended in unsafe situations. If pets are in my home, they’ll enjoy a quiet, pet-friendly space with no hazards, plenty of supervision, and lots of love. I keep toxic items out of reach, monitor interactions carefully (if multiple pets are present), and make sure everyone has their own space to relax. I also send regular updates with photos or videos so you’re never left wondering how your pet is doing. You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and genuinely caring.
