“Patricia was an amazing pet sitter for our 3 cats while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. She gave them lots of love and attention, kept their litter boxes clean, made sure they had fresh water and food, and even sent us daily pictures and videos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. Highly recommend her!”



About: I have always grown up with multiple animals (birds, bearded dragons, goats, small/large dogs, etc). I am a lover of all animals and am very active in my personal life. So whether your pet needs to be walked or just a simple drop in, you can count on me! I currently work as a Registered Nurse and am wanting something new to do in my free time. My schedule is very flexible since I work 3 days out of the week I am renting at my current place, so do not allow animals to stay with me. But I am willing to drive to you! Let me know what you and your pet needs from me and we can make it work!

“Dawn is wonderful and is a perfect person to look after your fur babies. So grateful”


“Jessie is great! She does an excellent job taking care of my cat’s needs, playing and keeping me informed with photos. It’s such a relief knowing my cat is in good hands while I’m gone at work. Very much appreciated, mahalo”


“Thank you for taking good care of my babies!!”


“Olivia is always the best!! Reliable and so good with our girls!!”


About: I have been a dog mom for the past 13 years. I have experience caring for all phases of life from puppy to the sweet senior stage. My oldest pup is 15 years old (I rescued her when she was 2!) and my youngest is 5 years old who I’ve had since she was a puppy. I even have experience caring for special needs as my youngest was diagnosed with an auto immune disorder so am no stranger to administering meds! I am available for any pet care, drop in visits and dog walking Monday through Friday 8am until 3pm and some weekends as well if needed. I will follow whatever instructions you have for your fur baby to a tee. Whatever they need I am more than happy to provide and keep them on their routine!

Dedicated to your pet’s comfort, health, and happiness.

“Vanessa is a great pet sitter, she was very attentive to the need of our animals and kept in close communication with us. She also provided many detailed photos and descriptions of each visit that we appreciate very much! 10/10”


About: I’ve had experience with puppies and can work on light training, I’ve also dealt with elderly dogs administering regular medications. Of course middle aged dogs are no problem as well I work full time but I don’t do much outside of work so I have a lot of free time to do what I like, like taking care of a furry baby! I can take dogs for regular walks, make specialized meals for those with dietary restrictions and can provide regular check ins for those who are nervous about leaving their fur baby

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old for neighbors, friends and family. These people have relied on me to walk, feed, and board their pets. I have worked and volunteered at National Mill Dog Rescue for four years where I have enjoyed socializing with dogs in a kennel or play yard, command puppy parties and walks, and have lead outreach programs and events. I'm currently a junior in college who is unemployed, so I'll have plenty of time to walk, run, and play with your pups or kittens! My schedule is currently very open on weekends and during the week it can fluctuate with my class times. I can always make a house stop or walk anytime after 9 am. Home services are currently inactive. However I can provide pet care in the comfort of your home to be sure your pup is enjoying their stay while you're away.

“Liz did an awesome job with Daisy (mini-Goldendoodle) and Rose (wobbly cat) while I was on vacation. She is super friendly and a huge animal lover! The animals loved her and were well taken care of. Liz is easy to communicate with and flexible on scheduling changes that may arise! Would not hesitate to use her again!”

I currently work at Krishna Cow Sanctuary and have a flexible schedule. I currently work part-time with a flexible schedule. I have been a nurse for the last five years in oncology.

About: I have cared for dogs for as long as I can remember. I was gifted my first dog at 6 years old, but it was until she had puppies that I really learned how much we can learn from dogs. I have cared for 4 litters of puppies throughout my life, but I am also familiar with adult dogs of all breeds. I have been my neighborhood’s pet-sitter for very long, but now that I have moved from my hometown I’d love to get to know some new furry friends. I am currently a student-athlete at UH Hilo, but I have pretty eventless afternoons along with some free days during the week and most weekends. I have a gate that will keep your pet in the safety of my home, as well as a lot of walkable, open grass areas to keep your pet entertained!

About: I have been dog sitting my bestfriends two dogs for years! They love there uncle Drake and his fun adventures! Love to see who can wear out who! I work from home in Reno so I'm always free to come check out some animals and get both of us some exercise and food! I treat pets as if they are my own! With the respect they deserve. As goes for the same with client's homes. I am a guest in the home and will always be respectful.
