“Diana was fantastic! She messaged me every day of my trip with my photos and updates of Pippi. This was my first time having a sitter at my house and it worked so well with my senior dog. I was so happy knowing she was comfortable at home and in good hands. I will definitely be using Diana in the future!”


“Right off the bat, we found that Kaleta is a such warm and friendly person! She’s also very reliable, trustworthy and it’s evident she gave a lot of loving care. I came home to a very happy kitty, along with a cleaner house than I left her with! I sincerely felt at peace the entire time I was gone. She’s a true gem, and Shambala and I are very blessed to have her in our life!”


“My 4 furry kids took to Sarah immediately! As an individual she is reliable, loving and kind and quick to learn the somewhat complicated matter with food allergies and feeding, medication and supplements. She also shared pictures on text.”


About: I’ve taken care of pets of every kind from dogs and cats to fish since I was 10. Friend, family and neighbors have trusted me to pet sit/house sit for them many times. I am honest, reliable, caring, and attentive. I have raised and taken care of dogs all my life and treat them with great care. I work part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your fur baby! I am available all through the week. I am self-employed so my schedule is flexible! I have a friendly pup that loves to play. He’s great with other dogs and cats, and has a mellow demeanor. I can take your dog for walks runs, or to the local dog park where our pups can play together!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10. My families, friends and neighbors always relay on me for walk, feed and bath them I have very flexible schedule and I’m free mostly morning and afternoon. I like to spend my time outdoor at the beach and nature which dogs mostly love it too I always follow parent’s instructions to make sure their dogs will be safe and take them to safe environment that I know or recommended by them

About: It is a privilege to take care of your pets while their parents are away. I will love your pets and treat them as if they were part of my family. The love, time, and care your pet will receive will put your mind at ease and allow you to enjoy your time away. I am open to questions, so let me know if you would like to meet. Thanks! Why I love pet sitting I have loved animals ever since I was born. I have had my own dog for 13 years. Being in your home, I will follow any schedule you provide to keep your pets happy, healthy, safe and comfortable while staying on their schedule. As I stated above. My goal is to follow your wishes and desires for your pet. Their comfort and safety are my primary concern always.

About: Dogs have been in my family my whole life and I was a dog mom for at least 20 years. I know firsthand how our furry BFF’s are FAMILY and how important it is to have trustworthy and reliable care for them when we have to be away. I travel a lot, and by far, pet care was always the #1 stressor in planning and being away! My sweet guy was quirky and anxious, and towards the end he had a lot of special care needs. I always worried about if he was getting all his needs met or if maybe he was too much for others to deal with compassionately. Our sitter was a genuinely great guy who loved our sweet boy so much, so I knew and trusted he was fine but I still went through these feelings every time! So now, as a sitter myself, I can promise you that I will care for you sweet boy or girl as if they were my own family because that’s what I loved in my own sitter! My place is only about 10 minutes away from the airport, so it’s very convenient for quick drop-off and pick-up on your way if you’re traveling. I work FT from home M-F so there’s time for a walk before and/or after work, and then I am available for frequent potty breaks throughout the day as needed I have a well fenced in yard and we are two doors down from a park. The park is tucked away in our community so there’s not much traffic and it’s very safe. We don’t usually see other dogs there, but plenty of chickens. I’m sorry, but my yard does not have a sheltered space so I can’t host outdoor pets. I can only host pets who are full-time indoor pets and fully house trained. I do have most basic pet supplies (bowls, leashes, crate for den style napping and an elevated bed, etc.)

About: YOUR PAWS ARE IN GOOD HANDS WITH US :) :) Solution oriented, highly experienced with canines, and have a heart for helping people, and caring for animals...look no further. My wife Susie & I are originally from Missouri, and are high school sweethearts. We have lived on Kauai for 9 years, and are passionate in every way about dogs! We owned & operated a very successful in-home dog boarding business in Homer, Alaska for 3 years, where we averaged 6 dogs per day, and had almost 30 dogs staying with us on major holidays in our large 3-story home on five acres. We offered board & train services there as well. Besides boarding experience with all ages, breeds, and personalities, we have experience with training, breeding, volunteer vet work, canine healthcare, and have also served as dog handlers for an Iditarod sled dog team. Boarding with us: We have a wonderful home at the base of sleeping giant in the Wailua Homesteads in Kapaa. If your dog loves hiking, we certainly can fulfill that desire! We have cool tile flooring, and air conditioning for those hot Summer days, so there are no overheating concerns in our home. We have dog beds, human beds, and couches- all of which dogs are welcome on (we allow dogs to sleep with us too). We have a large backyard, and an enclosed back deck. We do not isolate our guests- they have complete freedom inside our home. When we go on walks, hikes, or trips- we utilize a leash for safety. We are not your average Rover sitters. We have such a great deal of experience, we know canine behavior, how to identify & treat health issues, how to adapt to every unique dog and their needs, and we care about our human customers just as much- acknowledging your specific needs & requests is very important to us, and we always maintain excellent communication. We are accustomed to some dog parents being hesitant and reluctant to leave their loved ones for a time, and we offer our support, reassurance, and patience with customers during that time, wether it be answering numerous questions, an extended delay to leave at drop-off, or several calls/texts requesting photos/updates- we're here for you, and completely understand. Feel free to reach out to us as often as you'd like while your dog(s) are with us to request updates/pics, otherwise we typically give you your space. We can pick-up and/or deliver your dog(s) to ANY location you’d like, just let us know (additional charges apply). Always stay in good communication with us regarding drop-off & pick-up days & times. Never arrive unannounced…we need notice before you are coming over (this is our home- not a commercial boarding facility with staff). What to bring at drop-off: 1. Food- enough for the length of your dog's stay with us. Sealed containers with kibble are preferred. We do not store guest dog food in our fridge, so please bring appropriate food (no frozen, cooked, or raw foods that need stored in our fridge or freezer). 2. Collar (or harness) & leash. ***Dogs must be kept on leash during drop-off & pick-up*** Please do not let them exit your vehicle upon arrival unless they are leashed. Same goes for pick-up...keep them on lead from our door to your vehicle please. Dogs that we DO NOT accept into our home for boarding (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY): 1. Aggressive dogs (aggressive towards humans or other dogs) 2. Dogs that have fleas 3. Intact males 4. Intact females during their heat cycle 5. Dogs that have extreme separation anxiety 6. Dogs that have accidents inside or not fully potty-trained (or mark inside) 7. Excessive barkers 8. Escape artists 9. Dogs that are destructive when left home alone House sitting: We offer premium house sitting services island-wide. We do require to meet with you first at your property to make sure it's a good fit, as we are very selective on where we stay, and who we're working with for live-in house sitting jobs. We're experienced home owners ourselves. Besides estate caretakers, we have been entrusted with the care and management of farms- both vegetable & orchard farms, & also livestock farms. We have personally owned dairy cows ourselves, and also have experience caring for horses, llamas, alpacas, sheep, goats & chickens. We are excellent with property management! Between Susie & myself, we also have experience with carpentry, electrical, plumbing, painting, power washing, house cleaning using natural non-toxic cleaning products, landscaping/lawn care, & tree pruning/hazardous tree removal. We are very well connected here on Kauai, and anything we don't know or can't handle ourselves- we know someone who can. We are caretakers at heart, and caring for animals is what we do best. We are the trustworthy family you have been looking for! We LOVE our job! We do not isolate dogs (unless owner requests us to), or it is absolutely necessary (we usually don't accept dogs for most of the reasons they may need to be isolated anyways). We treat them like they are part of our family (and they truly are while with us). The way we care for dogs varies specifically on a case by case basis. No two dogs, or owners, are the same, so we go with the flow (and requests/requirements/best interests) of the dogs & their owners wishes.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs from all ages and all sizes ! I can walk, do grooming, and supervise your baby to keep them safe I’m a at home dog groomer so I have a flexible schedule ! I also have to take care of my own two pups :) I have a playpen i use to let my kids play. We go potty every 3 hours and yummy treats are always offered when they’re on their best behavior :)

“Thank you Cristina for taking care of our babies over the weekend! I was very nervous leaving my pets with someone they were not familiar with but she put me at ease! Cristina communicated with me everyday, sending me videos and updates. I would highly recommend her! Thank you Cristina!”


About: Hi! My sister & I are hoping to spend some time in Kauai around Thanksgiving and would love to watch your pups! Message me for details! I have never met non-pet owners who love pets more than my family. (Very tough concept to grasp as a kid who desperately wanted a dog and never got one - but I'm here now). Ever since I was little my family has been the go-to neighborhood dog sitters. I'm so glad I was able to experience the joy of having a pet, even if it wasn't permanent. Being a young college grad in a new city I have found myself with a fairly open schedule seeking that same joy only a furry friend can bring (and understanding the massive responsibility I have decided not to commit to just yet). I have 3 families in the area I consistently dog sit for and 2 friends with cats I also check in on when needed. I am very flexible but currently not offering boarding per my new landlords requirements. I have experience with puppies, kittens, anxious dogs, small dogs, BIG dogs, super active dogs and older pups. I have experience caring for dogs who have a scheduled medical routine (meds with food, special meals, timed "treats" etc.). I'm just excited to share the love you feel for them and keep them feeling cared for and safe while their people are away. I am traveling to the island/ on PTO so would have full time capability to watch your dog and they would get my undivided attention :) I am very comfortable housesitting as well as dog sitting, and flexible to meet your pet where they are and hopefully being in their own space will ease any separation anxieties they experience when their favorite person is away! I'm adaptable for their current routine. Whether your pet likes to play outside/go for walks as often as they're allowed to, or would prefer to lounge around the house and reluctantly walks when needed - I'm ready for it.

About: Thank you for looking at my profile. I looooove pets and it is my joy to assist your pet needs. I offer walking, hiking and exercising options, pet/house sitting, and house visits. I work online and am able to adjust my hours around to accommodate your needs. I love getting outside with the pets consistently or just loving them up. It’s a mutually beneficial service. It brings my heart joy. I have a consultation with each client on what the pets needs are and adjust as needed. I offer a kind, and joyful space and company for your loved one.

About: I've been taking care of pets for 13 years. I used to do full time, now that I work from home I can again. Patient, loving and kind to all animals. Very comfortable with big dogs, older pets and puppies I work from home and will watch your pet all day. They will never be left alone for more than 1 hour at a time I provide near constant care at my home in Kalaheo. They will have access to all parts of the house. I have a small Cavalier that can be around your pet or kept separated. I care for all pets like they're my own.

About: Love to walk, run, hike with pet friends. Lots of attention and treats. I'm an art director/graphic designer working remotely with my own business so can be at home with your pets most of the day! I am a lover of dogs, and the outdoors! I understand your pet is part of your family and will do everything I can to make sure your little (or big) one is taken care of! Let me know if you have any questions. I work from home as an art director/graphic designer and have a flexible schedule! I'll make sure to communicate how much time I have and when works best for the both of us. I understand your pet is part of your family and will do everything I can to make sure they feel comfortable and loved while they are with me!

About: I grew up loving animals since I was a baby and connect with animals every moment that I can (I’m that person who walks up to a dog out on a stroll and wants to get to know your dog). I’ve spent time sitting old dogs & cats who have strict medication regimens, I’ve been with thunder-scared animals and felt comfortable supporting them when they were scared. My daily routine and days are open to prioritize your pets care and attention. I live out of town so I will be mainly doing a tiny bit of video editing. I spend a lot of time outside and indoors with pets and would love to spend quality time with your pet, giving them the attention they deserve.

Hakan C.
“Worried about taking trips to the mainland and leaving your pets behind? Don’t, Hakan is the best pet and house sitter you could ask for. We have a terror of a chihuahua and an indoor cat and he managed them perfectly for over a week. We’ve had bad experiences with pet sitters before but you won’t have to worry about that with Hakan. He’s honest and dependable. Worried your sitter won’t answer the phone or reply to messages for days? That won’t be the case here, he always responded in a timely manner and he always kept us updated on how things were going. I would strongly recommend Hakan for all your pet and house sitting needs.”


Riley B.

“I have known Riley for almost 10 years...she is by far the most caring and loving young girl I know of all animals, big and small, and is even very compassionate and understanding toward their human counterparts. I only wish she lived closer so I could utilize her services more often.”

We knew we could trust our fur & feather babies to her because we have know her for over a decade. She has watched our dogs in years past as well, and they are always clean, loved and cared for. She gave them 2 walks a day as requested, bathed and fed them and loved on them as well. Our dogs were happy and calm when we returned home. We highly recommend Sterling as a pet sitter!”
