House Sitting in Pearl City

“Argentina was a life saver. She dog/house for my three dogs for several weeks and on very short notice. She sent many photos of the dogs and was in constant communication. My dogs love her. She took great care of my home as well. She is such a sweetheart and I will certainly hire her again next time I need a sitter!”

“This is 2nd time booking Meagan and she’s proven to be reliable, kind, trustworthy and responsible with our 2 fur babies at our home ❤️ our one, usually aggressive doggie liked her from the first intro 🤗”

About: What sets me apart is that I truly love animals and have over four years of experience caring for pets. I’m responsible, patient, and make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable. I also have experience with puppies, including basic training, feeding, walking, and giving them lots of attention and care. I am a military spouse therefore I do have BASE access! Pet care fits well into my routine, but it depends on my part-time work schedule. I usually have plenty of free time before or after work and on my days off. I’m flexible and do my best to work around your pet’s needs, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, or check-ins throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. This includes feeding them on schedule, giving them fresh water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning litter boxes, and spending time playing with and giving them attention. I also keep the home clean and make sure the pets are always supervised and cared for. I treat every pet like my own and do my best to make them feel loved while their owners are away.

“Alexis did a wonderful job watching my boys, Hogan and Bulleit. She sent both pictures and videos and I could tell the boys were doing good and very comfortable with Alexis. I will definitely use Alexis again in the future.”

“Rebecca is very patient and loving with our Bella Girl. She follows our instructions and our Bella is comfortable around her. She also has Tibbies so she knows the special care they need. She is definitely our regular sitter now if we ever need besides New Year’s eve. Love that she also takes pics and videos of her 😊”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets since a young age, including raising guide dog puppies with my family. I’ve since owned dogs, cats, rodents, lizards, frogs, spiders, and fish so I can tackle many needs. I’m well-versed in basic pet first aid and dietary needs (having worked at a specialty pet shop that made its own healthy gourmet pet treats for several years). My own dogs have included a registered and trained therapy dog as well as my current rescue dog who I’ve trained through his struggles with anxiety and reactivity. He and I love outdoor adventures and being active! I’ve fostered over 20 dogs and cats through shelters of all shapes, sizes, and ages and can’t get enough. I’d love to get to know your pet and all their unique quirks! I’m a teacher, so my schedule is wide open during the summers and school holidays. During the school year, I’m free after 3PM weekdays and anytime on the weekends. I’m very conscious of pet health and wellbeing. I’m selective about the food and treats I give my dog and willing to adapt to the needs and expectations of other pet parents who know their pets best! I stick to a regular routine of walks and other outings with plenty of enrichment in between. My own pets get medication and supplements as well as nutritious food toppers with every meal and I’ll gladly do the same for yours.

“Lehua took good care of our house and dogs while we were away. She was very neat and prompt with communication. We got daily updates/pictures to put my mind at ease. Would definitely recommend!”

“Richard was great with Moosey! Fast communicator. Sent pics and videos. Super respectful and left my place clean. Moosey loved him. Definitely would recommend and would book again for my future trips.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all of my life. I received my first dog for my 7th birthday present and have always had a pet ever since. I have recently finished my contract with the United States Army. I currently have the time and experience to properly care for any pet. I’m willing to work with their daily routine. I have a fence in yard for my own two dogs. I do not offer boarding at my residence due to my current lease agreement.

About: A BIT ABOUT ME: I’ve been around animals literally all my life. Throughout elementary and high school, I volunteered at the Hawaiian Humane Society and the Honolulu Zoo. Growing up, some of the pets and animals I’ve taken care of were: Dogs Cats (currently I have three cats now) Smaller pets (rats,mice,birds and rabbits) Ducks Chickens A lot of fish and even a baby pig, that required nursing. I work at a dog daycare, but am currently seeking clients to transition to Rover full time and am willing to be flexible. If you are planning an extended trip and need someone to watch your pet everyday, I might be a great fit. I have worked at the pet daycare for 9 years and have experience with monitoring and working with a pack of around 40 dogs (or more) Some of the other jobs I have at the dog daycare are: -Cleaning kennels -Laundry/Dishes/General Cleaning -Cat playtime -Litter box cleaning -Rabbit Care -Preparing food bowls -Dog walking -Enrichment activities for the dogs (such as puzzle time, basic command training, arts and crafts for the dogs, bedtime stories) -Basic grooming (such as nail trims, baths, blow drying brushing and ear cleaning and teeth brushing.) -Monitoring dogs during swim classes -Administering medications to pets -Giving extra attention to animals who are seniors or have special needs PLEASE NOTE When I meet you and your fur babies I would like to spend at least an hour with them before scheduling a pet sitting or regular walking, to be sure they feel comfortable with me. Things I need to know from you: -If your pet has special needs, health problems, allergies, separation anxiety, issues with taking medications, is food/toy aggressive with humans, or other dogs. -If your pet requires medications, any tricks or treats you use. -If your pet has any anxiety at bath time, or during nail trims -If there is anything I can do to make them feel more comfortable, relaxed and happy, please let me know. What you can expect from me: -I will absolutely give your fur babies the love and care they need. Should they require extra attention, you can rely on me. -To give you peace of mind, after a walk visit is completed, or while you are away on a trip, I will update you with a fun report, via email or text. Please note that should an emergency arise, I will call immediately. All animals are special to me…with the exception of spiders. You can trust that while your fur baby is in my care, they will be well looked after. To start, I’m able to work Sunday mornings, Mondays and Wednesdays. If more time is required, I’m flexible. Currently I’m starting as a dog walker, if clients increase I will devote more time to dog walking and eventually sitting Currently, I am available for dog walking specifics on where to collect/return dog can be individualized to meet client’s needs. I would prefer not to enter the client’s home, but if it is necessary, I am willing to do so. If client requests home entry, I will need to meet with owner and dog in client’s home at least twice, to be sure the dog feels comfortable with me. If client prefers leaving the dog in an enclosed yard, one meeting with both dog and owner should suffice, but all decisions will be made case by case.

“Always a pleasure having Analiese puppysit my little man, Coda. Always communicative and updating me throughout the day while I’m at work. I feel secure that Coda is in safe and good hands when with Analiese.”

“Jessica was a life safer; allowing the whole family to go stateside while being able to leave our two older dogs with someone at home relieved a lot of anxiety. She was a good communicator, took great care of the dogs, and left the house in excellent condition. I would definitely recommend and hope to book her again in the future!”

“Giselle was simply wonderful! She sat for our two dogs over the weekend and kept us updated the entire time. She sent photos and updates and cared for our boys like they were hers!! 🐾”

“Thank you to Sulamita for watching Benjamin and Maple. We have two dogs that have very different personalities, one of them is reactive to other dogs, very guarded and cautious of strangers so we were worried about how he would do with someone new but Sulamita was able to get him to warm up to her within a few days. The other dog is a shy and nervous girl, but she is easy to win over so we weren't worried about her. She stayed with our dogs overnight for ever a week in house and she kept our house like we left it, kept up our dogs routine like picking up poop, bathroom/potty breaks, giving the dogs their daily supplements, and took out our trash bins as we requested. We very much appreciated it! Overall, we were extremely satisfied with her service as she communicated well, followed our instructions, asked questions to make sure she was doing the right thing, and treated our babies with love and respect. We would love to continue to go with her again for any future services until the next journey in her life. Thank you so much Sulamita for taking care of our babies, we are so happy to know that they were being cared for without any worries. Please don't hesitate to book with Sulamita, you can trust your fur babies are in good hands!”

About: We are a pack bonding and socializing experience! Better than a dog park, a nightly unleashed run through a 100 yards just for us! I have learned a lot about boarding dogs from doing it! There are extra fees if behavior is excessive! I teach Japanese and deliver goods around Oahu. Both are freelance jobs so when your dog is booked as a boarder they get basic kennel care and 2 walks. They are in a kennel for 9-11 hours before I get back usually to feed them again by 830pm. The industrial neighborhood I live in is safe. in back of 3 buildings is a fenced in area on three sides so we run without leashes in this walk. I have kennels if you do not. The day is long when I work but some days their kennel time is about 6-7 hrs. I walk them 2x/daily. Feeding! Then we sleep together by 10 or 11. We spend time at home for a few hours each day. Doggy Day Care for puppies or adventurers require the full day fee so I can not work and focus on your dog. Transportation might be required as well if you want us to go on a hike. My base rate doesn’t include this. I use calm, confidence and caring to be ALPHA of my pack, I see animals as family members and are responsible for other human children every day with the same sense of duty. I NEVER cuss or hit animals or people! EXCESSIVE BEHVAIOR is not tolerated however and I will do what is necessary for myself, my pack and other passerby’s to protect the peace. This might include training collars if your dog is a puller or a muzzle if there is aggression towards other dogs or people on walks. Some rebellious dogs might need to be in submission hold to learn who is alpha. A blended reinforcement method I use with my dog who is mixed with Jack Russell terrier and doesnt like to listen 100% includes a prong collar which is HER preference over the Gentle Leader. Emotional intelligence allows more choices for my animals. We lilve in a semi outdoor place. Rain and tsunami proof and all to ourselves. Off grid living. There is lots of fenced off running space for us and the neighbors know us and stop their cars or trucks when puppies run across the street as they do. It is much better than a professional kennel simply because of the love and activities I provide. I have references for my dog boarding in other people's homes.

“Jessica was amazing with my little Hazel. She was very accomodating to a unique sitting situation and made Hazel very comfortable. Would definitely have her doggy sit again.”

“Yasmeen did a great job with our two dogs while we were away. We were out of the country, and it was nice not having to worry. They were in good hands!”
