We are new to the island and had been looking for a safe place for our pup to stay overnight while we explore the island. Sarah took great care of our guy. Her home is open and very welcoming/dog friendly, and she has a large yard perfect for running a playing. We would definitely consider leaving S’mores with her again.

Bela had the most amazing service, great communication and made us feel very comfortable having our Naomi in her care. We had to travel off island last minute to Oahu for some Medical issues, and she let us come and do a meet and greet with not much advance notice. I was not well on the return and Bela had offered to meet us closer to airport, that was amazing! She sent lots of photos and videos and daily updates to keep us informed. We are so grateful to have found her! You can tell what an animal lover and all around good person she is, with all the love and aloha care she give our girlie! I would highly recommend Bela and will for sure being using her again! O

Dianne was simply awesome. After nine years with my fur baby, this was the first time I had a relaxing vacation. Communication was great, pictures daily showed she was being well cared for. I was a little worried cocoa puff would not welcome me home. Thank you Dianne for such great care of my “baby”

We have booked with Natalie many times. She is trustworthy, provides stellar care to our pups, provides daily updates and is 1000% worth the drive from Keaau. She is truly amazing and I wouldn’t trust our pups with anyone else.

Athena took really good care of our corgi Roxy in her home. She would send pics and videos throughout the day to let us know how happy Roxy was doing activities with Athena and her dog. They all got along so very well. Roxy loved her time with Athena. I hope that Athena will be available to watch Roxy again the next time we need a sitter.

Alayna and Ben couldn’t be kinder or more knowledgeable. Our dog had a blast and was understood as a hearding breed. She got tons of exercise and fit in well with the other dogs.

About: 20+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs through every stage of life, from energetic puppies to dignified seniors approaching 18 years old. My family and I have successfully raised and cared for dogs of all sizes (small, medium, and large breeds). I understand that each dog is unique and requires tailored care based on their age, size, temperament, and health needs. I work from home full-time and am available throughout the day to give your pet plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I like to take the dogs for daily walks along Beach Rd. Schedule is flexible, but prefer cooler times of day morning/afternoon. My home is shared with three well-socialized dogs (two chihuahua mixes and one larger dog), a friendly outdoor cat who roams our property, and backyard chickens. I have a gated property (not fully fenced, so I supervise outdoor time) with space for dogs to explore safely. Dogs who stay with me will have access to indoor comfort, outdoor supervised play, and structured routines that include regular walks, feeding times, and rest periods.

Shelby and Jesse's place was like Disneyland for my Minnie - from what I could see in the pictures Shelby sent, Minnie had an absolute blast with their dogs. I think she was a little sad to return home with me! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a homestay option that is both convenient for the owner and fun for the pup :)

Okay I was skeptical at first because he had only one review but how come Austin does not have as many reviews as he deserve? I absolutely am glad that I found him. He was just so great. He would send me pictures as often as he could and I could tell my dog was enjoying her time with him for sure in the pictures. Thank you!!

Aly went above and beyond to make sure my dog was taken care of. My dog has anxiety and Aly kept me in the loop as to how he was doing. She sent photos and was in contact daily with me. I felt assured that Frankie was excellent care. I recommend having her watch your dog!

Cicely is amazing! She gives our dog so much love and makes her feel at home. She sends updates with pictures, communicates well and is always so kind. We have booked with her twice and she will always be our first choice when needing a sitter for our little Frenchie, Robin. Mahalo Cicely! 🙏🏼🐾

I had an amazing experience with Vanessa! She watched my two dogs overnight and took such great care of them. She kept me updated with photos, made sure they were comfortable, and treated them like they were her own. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. My dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly loved being with her. I truly appreciate her kindness, communication, and the extra effort she put in. I’ll definitely be booking with her again whenever I need a sitter. Highly recommend!
