“I would highly recommend Ky for all of your pet sitting needs! She took care of our high maintenance pups while we were out of town for over a week. Both of our pups come with their own unique behavioral issues and Ky handled them like a pro. She sent us daily updates and left our place nice and clean. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Kelly is simply FANTASTIC! She stayed with out little Maltese (who is a bit spoiled), and watch our house while we traveled for a conference. She sent lots of daily updates and photos. Our little Rocky absolutely LOVED her; so much so that he pouted a bit after we got home and she left. Kelly was responsive, communicative, careful and caring. We will certainly reach out to her again when next we travel.”

About: Aloha, my name is Malu, I’m born & raised on O’ahu. I’ve always been an animal lover with a natural connection to dogs & cats. I bring experience, patience, and a caring attitude to every pet I care for. I don’t work outside the home at the moment, so I have a very open schedule & will be fully present to every pet I care for. Right now i’m accepting small dogs only 🐶 30 lbs or less for boarding. I have small dogs of my own, so keeping the size limit helps make sure everyone feels safe, comfortable, and gets along well. I’m very dependable & committed to making your pet feel safe and happy 😊🐶🐱🐾 🐾 Dog Sitting / Boarding Providing attentive, loving care for your dog while you’re away. I ensure a safe & calm environment where your pet can relax, stay on routine, and feel at home. I always send photo updates throughout the day, your fur baby gets attention, playtime, & regular potty breaks :) I always make sure your fur baby will feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I pay close attention to their routine, body language, & needs. I love spending quality time with animals, giving them attention, playtime, cuddles, and making sure they feel relaxed while you’re away
“Alexis was so great with my dog! She sent pictures and gave updates while I was away. She even bought my pup a doggy cupcake! I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a dogsitter!”

About: I have grown up with dogs and had them in and out of my life. I am pretty experienced with young puppies and adult dogs. Although I am not experienced with senior care or giving medication. I am currently a part time college student that will be taking classes online. I have an incredibly flexible schedule. I will do my best to work with so that it works out for everyone. I cannot board any animals in my home however I would be happy to spend the night with your furry family members in your home. I take pet safety very serious and I’ll care for your pet like they’re my own pet. I’ll also follow any instructions, rules and dietary needs that you have for your pet. Further more I won’t leave your pet unsupervised unless in a safe or secure place and with your knowledge and permission.
“We had a wonderful experience with Alondra! She stayed at our home for the weekend to take care of our dog, Molly, and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter. From the very beginning, Alondra was accommodating and professional. She came by ahead of time to meet us, get instructions, and pick up the keys, which helped us feel confident that everything would go smoothly. While we were away, she sent us daily updates, which gave us peace of mind knowing Molly was happy and well cared for. When we returned home, Molly was her happy self, and it was clear she had received plenty of love and attention. The house was also spotless—you honestly couldn't tell anyone had been there except for our happy pup waiting to greet us! What really stood out about Alondra was her genuine, warm spirit. She is kind, friendly, and easy to communicate with while also being dependable and professional. It's never easy to leave our sweet girl behind, but knowing Molly was in such caring hands made it much easier for us to enjoy our trip. We would absolutely book with Alondra again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to other folks looking for a sitter. Thank you, Alondra, for taking such great care of Molly and our home! We appreciate you.”


“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.”

“Seriously, the best dog sitter ever. My two GSD’s are not typical dogs. They like to bond with a person and enjoy lots of walks. VIctoria treated them like royalty, sent me a ton of pictures and walked the dogs several times a day. My house was clean when I got home and she had even washed and tied the sheets. I can’t say enough good things about her”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for 8 years! I have fostered kittens for over a year and have frequently repeating clients because of my care! I work part time throughout the week and have a pretty flexible schedule. I work nearby and can easily check in during the day and have frequent breaks! I offer both boarding in my home and care in your home, depending on what is best for your pet. My home is warm, pet-friendly, and shared with 3 other people who also love animals so your pet will get plenty of attention and affection.
“We never were really comfortable with leaving our boys at the clinic while we travel. Kaya made it so easy for us. She is extremely friendly, helpful, kind and informative. We would definitely recommend her!”

About: I’m a ICU/ER Veterinary Professional with 9 years of experience. Check out my business Instagram and Facebook pages - Doggone Good Time Pet Services! I love all dogs. I've never met a breed I didn't love. I have a pit bull at home so I'm more than comfortable with "bully" breeds. In fact I love them most. I've been caring for animals for most of my life whether it be my own or others. I've been dog sitting for families with up to 5 pets for 10 years back home in Virginia. I am comfortable with all types of special needs I have experience with everything from mega esophaguses to diabetes. I hope I can help care for your loved ones while you can’t! I work at an animal hospital 3-4 days a week just during the day! I’m about to do walks/check ins before and after work and even over my lunch break if the location permits! I have a lot of experience in handling dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes! There’s no animal too big or too small for me!

About: I grew up on a farm and have had dogs of every shape and size my entire life. I have experience with dogs with diabetes and am comfortable giving them their shots. I am willing to drive to any part of the island but I am located in Ewa Beach so please allow grace for traffic if you are townside. Size does not scare me as I was watching over 12 horses daily in Kapolei, my elderly dog requires 4 medications a day so medications are a breeze as I’ve had to learn every trick in the book. *I have an elderly dog and young cat in my home so all animals must pass a flea inspection and have recent vaccines.* I am currently unemployed due to medical conditions not letting me be able to be in large crowds. I can adapt my schedule to you and your animals needs because of this and can be available anytime outside of my appointments and treatment days. I have a larger fenced yard in Ewa Beach, I provide filtered water for all animals and treat any animal in my home as if it were my own. In my house animals are allowed on furniture and beds. I will always leave a space cleaner than found, if I am house sitting/pet sitting I will lightly clean the area. If your animal becomes muddy, or dirty under my care I will wash them. If you don’t want them on furniture I will make sure they do not go on any.
“By far one of the best! We have a special needs Bull Terrier that Kristyn handled with ease. We were so lucky to find her. She is just an overall good hearted person with a calm personality to keep our four babies safe. Highly recommend!!”

About: My family has had so many different kinds of animals throughout my entire life. Several dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, tortoises, birds, pigs, bunnies, and chameleons! I work as a DoorDasher, so I make my own hours, which means I can give your pets my full time and attention! I’m constantly helping taking care of the animals in my family’s home, so I have a lot of practice! Since my family has many animals, I do not offer boarding, but my husband is a Rover sitter, so I have have already learned so much from him about making sure the pets we take care of are as comfortable as possible! We are very communicative with our clients and make sure to send frequent updates.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life- growing up with four rescues!! Now that I am away from them I would love to take care of your best friend like they are mine <3 I am a student on the island but my schedule is pretty free so I am readily available to be scheduled! Scheduling in advance or day of works- just communicate with me! I care for your pets like my own. My services are open to hatever you need. I will make sure your pet gets ample play time to tucker him out and is well fed during the day!
“Joseph is very professional, great communicator, and he is so knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors. Our dogs were treated like family and you could tell they were treated so well by how relaxed they were when we got home. Highly recommend!”


About: Aloha! I’m Morgana, a longtime Oʻahu local, lifelong animal lover, and someone who’s generally happiest around animals, the ocean, or both! I have a degree in Marine Science from UH Mānoa and have spent years working and volunteering with animal care and conservation organizations here in Hawaiʻi and abroad. Animals have always been a big part of my life, whether they’re furry, feathered, or swimming in the ocean. I’ve also spent time working in a veterinary setting, which has taught me to pay attention to the little things, like changes in an animal’s behavior, appetite, or energy. Every pet has their own personality and routine, and I really enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel happy, safe, and comfortable. Outside of work, I’m a creative person who loves music, , hiking, and reading. I’m just as happy going for a nice walk as I am having a quiet evening at home with a furry companion curled up nearby. I’ve also spent years managing and caring for private homes also a prior Airbnb host/owner so I understand how important it is to feel comfortable with someone in your space. I’m tidy, respectful, communicative, and always try to leave everyplace I go a little better than I found it. One of my favorite things about pet sitting is getting to know each animal’s little quirks and building a relationship with them over time. Whether your pet is a cuddle bug, a playful goofball, or a slightly suspicious cat who needs a little time to warm up, I’m happy to meet them where they are and my goal is pretty simple: happy pets :) and owners who can enjoy their time away without worrying about what’s happening back home. And yes, I’m always happy to send photos and little updates along the way! 🐾 I work a hybrid schedule here in Honolulu, so my mornings, evenings, and weekends are when I have the most flexibility for pet care. I enjoy starting and ending my day with some fresh air, a walk, and a little animal companionship! Some days/weeks I have the ability to work remotely other times I will go into the office. For overnight stays, I’m happy to keep pets comfortable in their own home and maintain their usual feeding, walking, and bedtime routines. I know every animal has different needs, so I always like to chat with owners beforehand to make sure my schedule is a good fit. I’m especially happy to build ongoing relationships with local families and become a familiar, trusted face for their pets. I think the best pet-sitting relationships start with good communication and a little trust on both sides! I’m always happy to arrange a meet-and-greet in person or virtual before booking so we can get acquainted, go over expectations, and most importantly, make sure your pet feels comfortable with me. Being local to Oʻahu makes this especially easy, and I love having the opportunity to meet families in person. When staying in someone’s home, I’m mindful of their privacy, belongings, and household preferences. I like to ask questions upfront rather than make assumptions, whether that’s about visitors, household rules, emergency contacts, or your pet’s favorite hiding spot. I’m also a big believer in keeping owners in the loop. I’m happy to share little photo updates, funny moments, and reassurance that everything is going smoothly. My goal is for you to feel like you’ve left your home and furry family members with a trusted friend, not a stranger.
About: Fortunately, I've had several dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been second nature. I even brought my own dog with me to college for three years before moving to Honolulu. Since being away from my pup, I've really missed having dogs in my daily life, which is what inspired me to join Rover. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I'll treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I'd want for my own. Whether it's walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to their routine, I'm here to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you're away. I’ve always had a natural way with animals and jokingly call myself a “dog whisperer.” I love helping dogs feel comfortable and happy. My experience training my own pups has taught me patience, positive reinforcement, and how to connect with every dog’s personality. Hi! I'm Mya, a recent Hawaii Pacific University graduate and member of the HPU Women's Basketball team. I'm currently pursuing my Master's in Business ONLINE while living here in beautiful Honolulu. I work a part time job so I have so much time on my hands! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, loving environment where pets can feel at home. I’m experienced with following routines, providing supervision, and making sure every pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they need. I can accommodate crates, special instructions, and individual pet needs.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Punaluu
We had an amazing experience with Ky and highly recommend her! From the very beginning, she made us feel completely at ease. During our meet and greet, she asked thoughtful questions about Apollo and Harper's routines, personalities, preferences, and care. It was clear she genuinely wanted to get to know them and make sure she could provide the best possible care, which gave us so much confidence before we left. While we were away, she took wonderful care of Apollo and Harper, treating them with so much love, attention, and patience. We knew they were in great hands, and it gave us real peace of mind to be able to enjoy our trip without worrying. She also took excellent care of our home. We came back to a spotless house, and everything was exactly as we had left it. It's obvious she is responsible, trustworthy, and takes pride in caring for both pets and homes. We're so grateful for everything she did for Apollo and Harper and wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. If you're looking for someone who is caring, dependable, and truly goes above and beyond, we wholeheartedly recommend her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Punaluu
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 994 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Punaluu. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Punaluu 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 Punaluu 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 Punaluu 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Punaluu. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
