About: I’m very patient and allow animals to introduce themselves to me instead of forcing an interaction. I love seeing all the different personalities that animals have and learning what their special love language is. I’m currently living in HPP in Keaau and I am willing to travel island wide for house sitting. I work remotely so I need reliable internet but I am available to be home with your pet most of the day. I have a little dog with a warrior spirit. We are willing to do a meet and great if you think I can bring my dog for house sitting. If you’d rather I don’t bring my dog, I can manage that too. He’s used to playing with large dogs including pit bulls and poodles/doodles. Feel free to reach out and ask questions. I am willing to just let your dogs out and feed them but I am also willing to be present day and night if requested. Just let me know your expectations.

“We trust our dogs and home with him completely!! Now having watched our dogs a number of times, they jump up to greet him and are so happy. We especially love that he keeps our house looking tidy and gives the dogs lots of playtime outside. Will use again and again!”


“Jody was fantastic! She stayed at our house with our 2 dogs while we were away and made sure both the dogs and house were well cared for. We will absolutely be using her again and recommend her to anyone! ”


About: I grew up in a zoo. I cared for just about every type of small pet as well as horses and other livestock when I was growing up. As an adult, I’ve always had dogs and cats running around. Having furry critters makes a house truly a home! I live in Volcano Village with my wife and 5 pets. I specialize and have many years of experience working with reactive and formerly abused dogs. I understand their way of thinking, triggers, body language, unique needs, as well as the best way to approach any given situation. Pricing is negotiable, especially for walks and drop-in visits. Living in Volcano, managing fuel overhead, commuting time, and scheduling can be a bit of a balancing act. I’m open to chat. Having had my own businesses since I was 19 years old, I’ve always had strong work ethic and entrepreneurial drive. You can count on my professionalism, reliability, and high quality care that can be difficult to find on this island. Available weekdays and weekends. Morning and afternoons for drop-ins and walks as long as I’m not previously booked. Overnights available for pet/house sitting while you are traveling. Not currently boarding at my property, that may change in the future. Only out-calls for walks, drop-ins, feedings, and pet/house sitting for traveling. Let’s chat!


“Shani is amazing - my dogs love her so much. She also took great care of our home in addition to our dogs. We are super grateful to have found her as we are new to the island. Thank you, Shani!”


“Regan handled our three dog pack like a pro. Our three rescues each have their own personality, are young and full of energy; two are even on meds. Regan did a fabulous job handling their detailed, daily routine and provided honest updates. We greatly appreciate her as a sitter and will definitely use her again.”

“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!”

About: I have worked with animals from a very young age! I treat animals like royalty (because they are) and I am a good animal reader and comforter. All of my family members and friends always call me to take care of their pets because they don’t trust anyone else! I’m also very knowledgeable about training dogs. Let me love your doggie❤️ I run on my own set schedule working from home as a silver smith, I occasionally have markets I go to, but I’m mostly free most the week if I’m not out adventuring! My home has a nice grassy area in the front and backyard, plenty of shade and fun places to play. I have a fence, but there are some openings and walkways in it so I’m willing to let dogs out on a leash if needed. If I’m able, I love to take dogs with me on walks, to the beach, and give them a fun time. I live with my boyfriend whom also loves dogs. Occasionally I will kennel the dog for small increments of time if I need to go out and do something that doesn’t allow dogs, but I prefer to be with them as much as possible.

I have experience training puppies, raising kind pit bulls and taken care of elderly animals gently and compassionately with lots of love. I own a yoga business and substitute teach in Pahoa. I teach Yoga classes a couple of days a week. I substitute teach 2-3 days a week during the school year. I spend time homesteading when I am not working. I have more than enough time to share with a fur baby or 4!!! I have a 1/4 acre with plenty of room for animals to enjoy. I can walk the dogs around the yard and the neighborhood. They would be treated like family. My home is my sanctuary. My home very peaceful, quiet and serene. I love to play with animals. I have a spoiled kitty that hangs out in the gardens with me.

I'm working part time so I'll have plenty of time to take care of your animals, I'm usually free on the weekend so over night stays won't be a problem! I make sure to let out dogs at least 2 times an hour to use the bathroom if they'd prefere to be outside I stay with them until they wants to come back, I feed and water them, I can bathe your pet if dirty!

Kristen P.
“Hi, my name is Chhaya and I am a double doodle with double the fluff and double the feelings. Whenever my people leave, I get a little sad (cue the soulful doodle eyes). But then — enter my next favorite human, Kristen! She's basically my emotional support human. Sensitive Stomach Specialist: I have a special diet and allergies, and Kristen never misses a detail - just the right food at the right time. My belly stays happy, and so do my people. Play + Adventure Buddy: Kristen knows how to match my energy — whether it’s running around the yard, chasing a stick, or on a sniffventure. She understands when I need to move and when I need to be lazy & snuggly. Swimming Sidekick: Sure, lots of sitters in Hawai‘i will hit the beach, but Kristen makes it fun. We’re basically teammates in the doggie-paddle Olympics. If you want someone reliable, caring, and completely dog-savvy, Kristen’s your person. She’s fun, she’s trustworthy, and she makes sure a doodle like me feels safe, loved, and perfectly cared for. Paws down, would recommend. 🐾 This review is endorsed by my humans - Gretchen & Bobby, they tell me that even though they miss me SO much, they feel safe and at ease when they travel knowing I am with Kristen. — Chhaya the Double Doodle”
