“Rachael was easy to set a video call time with prior to her visit. We chatted and she was very thorough in her questions. She was on time for the visit, communicative with photos and updates, and Zena had a great time on their outing. Thank you, Rachael. We will book with you again and would recommend you to everyone! Mahalo!”
“Sarah was amazing. She was great at communicating and sent many pictures and videos of our fur babies. She took care of our home and respected it. And she loved our dogs and took care of them like her own. Our dogs loved her. I’m so happy we found her and will use her again.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life. I’ve always been really great with dogs, but when my fur child passed. I opted to download Rover! (Best thing I’ve done) I live alone, and my career is more stationary. I also have a field in my backyard for walks and playtime. PERFECT for a doggie 🐶 I invite you to view my photos of some of my visitors. I will teach them tricks and teach them obedience. I’m patient and kind and I've been known to make even the most anxious of pups, feel safe and calm and happy! I’ll send you photos and updates the whole visit which will leave you feeling relaxed while you’re away🤩 I’ve been using for about five yearsI love dogs and I don’t have any of my own, so I have a lot of love to share Upon arrival I ready through all instructions that owners share with me. From there on training and discipline accompanying lots of snuggles and affection. Also pictures to follow
“Kiaya is amazing! She was so sweet with our anxious pup, and went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and happy. She was communicative and sent pictures, and made us feel much more comfortable leaving.”
“Emily was the best with my new puppy! Constant updates and info throughout the night put this Mamma at ease. She also did a wonderful job putting a puppy with separation anxiety to bed. I truly her implicitly with my pup! ❤️”
“Megan was so great with our animals during our recent trip. it was during the big storm and our house was without power and internet for 2 days. As soon as power was restored, she sent us updates and pictures of our cats and dogs. When we came home, our house looked better than when we left and we had a house full of happy animals. I would highly recommend Megan and will definitely use her in the future.”
About: I am a dog fanatic, they are very special to me. I have had many dogs growing up of all breeds and sizes. I will love them whole heartedly, I understand how much love and care they need while you're away. I do have a 9 year old who is dog crazy as well, he has lived with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Animals have a very special place in my heart (especially dogs) and I would love to be the one to take care of your special friend. I know the importance of trust with your loved ones. I would like to bring good energy into you and your pets life with a whole lot of love. Mahalo I am flexible, I don't mind traveling around the island to take care of animals. I have been fortunate to work with animals all over Maui for the last 11 years. I am very open to any specific instructions your special friend will need; first timers, allergies, high energy, separation anxiety and any extra care your pet may need
“Kristina was a wonderful sitter for my two dogs at my house. She is obviously super comfortable and happy with dogs, and she was very communicative and easy to get ahold of with any questions. She went above and beyond what I asked of her. Highly recommend Kristina to all other dog owners!!”
About: I've cared for my own diabetic miniature schnauzer and understand the importance of managing a strict diet and administering medication. Dogs tend to love me and come up to me often when out walking. I grew up with dogs and cats my entire life. They are playful, loving, and honestly can warm your heart. My old dog Bella was diabetic, and it was hard to find a trusted sitter. I want to be the trusted sitter for you. So, you don't have to worry if your dog or cat is okay. Breeds I've owned: Miniature Schnauzer and Lhasa Apso. (cats typically have been rescue). Hi there! I'm Mari, a [Responsible and loving] pet sitter and a self-employed professional. When I'm not empowering clients as a leadership coach and energy facilitator, I'm spoiling furry friends as a pet sitter! Having owned homes myself, I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your space. You can rest assured, I'll treat your home and pets with the same love and respect I give my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family
About: Aloha :) My dogs and I would love to have your dog stay at our house in Olinda! We have a fenced yard and a few (partially fenced) acres of land beyond that for the pups to play and fetch the ball (depending on your comfort level with that, of course). Delilah is a sweet 4 year old golden retriever who loves equally to play and chill. Bear is a 2 year old golden Aussie who *always* loves to play and love on other pups! We live 10 minutes from both Olinda forest and Makawao forest so we usually go for morning walks there 4-5 days week. We would love to bring your pup along with us! I work from home during the day. I’m never gone for more than a 5-6 hour time frame at a time and on top of that, we have a doggy door for the dogs to go in and out freely in our fenced yard. I have a fenced yard for the dogs to hang out in and a few acres beyond that (partially fenced) for them to run around and get their energy out in. I’m always watching the dogs when they are beyond the fully fenced yard. I will also make sure you are comfortable with your dog in this situation before doing so.
“Alexandra was great with my three large dogs. One senior who takes medication, one 4-year-old Labrador and a Humane Society Foster. The Foster was a last-minute addition from when I booked Alexandra. She said no problem when I contacted her. She had a couple challenges and took care of them like a pro. The foster dog I had I could not get out of the yard for a walk as she was afraid of everything. Well, Alexandra managed this feat while we were away. I would not hesitate to call her again. My dogs were happy and relaxed when I arrived home. What more could I ask for”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced pet sitter who has been dog sitting and boarding for returning clients over the past three years. Caring for dogs has become one of my favorite ways to spend my time, and I love getting to know each pup’s unique personality. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or loves attention, I’m comfortable adapting to their individual needs and routine. I have experience caring for dogs with a variety of temperaments and always prioritize making them feel safe, loved, and at home. I’m very active and love being outdoors, so your dog can expect plenty of walks, playtime, exercise, and affection. I live in a pet-friendly apartment and offer both boarding and house sitting. I also have experience with basic training and reinforcing good habits, so I’ll happily stick to your dog’s routine and any instructions you provide. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind while you’re away and make sure your dog has a fun, safe, and loving experience from start to finish. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I am available to care for your pet everyday of the week. I work as a surf instructor 3 days a week (8am–1pm), which leaves me very flexible and home the majority of the time. On work days, I provide early morning walks and care before I leave, plus afternoon/evening walks and attention when I’m back. On my off days, I’m fully available for plenty of walks, playtime, and company. Your dog will always get a consistent routine, lots of exercise, and plenty of love based on their individual needs. Whether in my home or yours, your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. My apartment is dog-friendly, clean, cozy, and smoke-free, with easy access to safe outdoor areas for walks, potty breaks, and exercise. I keep my space tidy and calm so pets feel relaxed and at home right away. For house sitting, I treat your home with the same respect and care as my own.
About: Hi! I’m Rae! Ever since my dad handed me my first Boston Terrier when I was a little girl, my heart has belonged to the animals. I was lucky enough to grow up in a household with pets, and as an adult I couldn’t imagine not having pets. I also recognize that even though we wish we could take our furbabies everywhere, it’s just not a reality for a lot of us. So, I’m happy to be able to ease the worry of wanting or needing to travel, work, etc by offering to take care of your babies while you’re away. I’ve also traveled to help take care of pets while they’re pawrents were away, tending to both their pets and home. Currently I have a lot of open availability. I prefer to be able to come to your house as I have two pups and three kitties in my home, and I know a pet is usually more comfortable in their own environment. The less that has to change for pets, the better so they don’t have to experience the stress of a new place or dog boarding. So I’m happy to provide potty breaks, walkies, play time, and in home sitting if needed. With direction from you, I’m happy to follow guidelines that you have set up for your pets in your home from their daily routine, to walks etc.
About: I’m currently doing my undergrad and want to become a physical therapist so I can take care of the kūpuna. This past summer I completed 40 hours of shadowing. I’m on summer break so I have a lot of free time. Trying to make money before summer ends. I gotta go back to school soon. My girlfriend has 2 dogs that we feed, walk, and care for. I will do the same for yours. I can also pick up poop for extra cost.
About: I've been surrounded by animals all of my life, with a wild assortment of pets including dogs, cats, horses, goats, pigeons, an African Grey, hamsters, rats, chickens, and even an iguana! I grew up in the Midwest with parents who were talented breeders and trainers of German Shorthaired Pointers and Vizslas, as well as master gardeners. In my adult life I've lived with dogs, cats, and chickens, though currently have no pets of my own as I travel too much to provide consistent care. I am seeking longer in-home sits (1+ weeks) and am available to chat ahead of booking. I'm a semi-retired professional, and very much appreciating the flexibility therein! I am mainly interested in longer-term, in-home sits, and offer discounts depending on length of stay, number/ages/types of animals, and if use of car is included. The care I provide varies depending on the needs your animals! The flexibility of my schedule allows me to easily adapt to yours, making transition into caring for your pets as seamless as possible.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Pukalani is $65

I can’t say enough good things about Tess! She was extremely responsible, communicative, and went above and beyond in every way during her stay. She obviously loves dogs and my dogs loved her. She is super smart and highly qualified for any sort of job involving pets and homes. I would recommend her to anyone and would definitely hire her again in a heartbeat.Mahalo, Tess!
Bea was absolutely wonderful with our senior dog Juno!!! She took him on multiple daily long walks through our neighborhood and gave him all of his medication and supplements exactly as directed. She is very reliable and trustworthy and we already booked her for our next trip.
Megan was so great with our animals during our recent trip. it was during the big storm and our house was without power and internet for 2 days. As soon as power was restored, she sent us updates and pictures of our cats and dogs. When we came home, our house looked better than when we left and we had a house full of happy animals. I would highly recommend Megan and will definitely use her in the future.
Olivia was incredible. She did a great job with my senior girl, and was wonderful to have in our home. She was very neat and respectful. Did a great job communicating and sending pictures during the week. Knowing June was happy and safe allowed us to have a great vacation. Olivia really understands bully breed dogs, is calm and patient and easy to work with. Would absolutely hire again.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Pukalani walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Pukalani maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Pukalani choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
