“This was Bambis second time back with Tracy he loves her so much! and she is so attentive and caring to all his needs and the other pups that stay with her as well , she always kept me updated everyday with Bambis mood, how he’s eating, she sent pictures daily and made sure he was happy and comfortable. I recommend Tracy to everyone! and she is so sweet, kind and easy to communicate with, it’s a blessing to be able to relax and know your fur baby is being well looked after and loved while you are away, and she made that happen.”

“I was so happy with Jackson and so was my dog. Jackson went above and beyond as my dog is a very picky eater (even for me) but he made sure my dog ate her food by trying different things. He kept me up to date with photos and messages of my dog’s activities. Truly grateful Jackson took such good care of my dog, I’ll definitely use him again!”

“My dog did very well on his first 4-hour daycare with Christine 3 months ago. This time, it is overnight stay. I was worried, felt uneasy, then came updates. She sent photos of my dog cuddling to his son, even slept in their bedroom (just like home). She even hand-fed my dog and offered other dog food when my dog refused his food. The whole family took care of my small Pom like their own. She is really true to her word, "care for them like they’re my own."”

“Samantha has helped us a lot by taking care of our dog while we were out. She sent me the cute pictures of our dog proactively and was pretty flexible in terms of scheduling. I will definitely consider her help again next time ;-)”
“Let me first preface with there's not enough good things to say about our experience with Ashley! She deserves more than 5 Stars! Suffice to say, we have found a permanent boarder for our Husky, Hana! Quick, efficient and detailed updates and correspondence with plenty of photos. Our puppy Hana, is a delicate flower, very timid and practically scared of her own shadow when around strangers or in public, but it was in her stars to have someone like Ashley whom gave her the compassionate, loving care she needs. It's obvious the experience was exceptionally good for her, as she has matured so fast in just 2 weeks of boarding. We have to be thankful as well of Ashley's fur-baby Apollo, as having a grown husky to show our pup the ropes has helped her come out of her shell further. Ashley then went a step further with follow up correspondence to ensure Hana had a nice transition back home. We're so thankful, Mahalo nui loa!”

“Stephanie is incredible, she took amazing care of my Chu. She is extremely accommodating for all of your pets needs, and incorporates sincerity as if your dog/four legged child is her own. Stephanie provides pictures and plenty of updates as to how your pet is doing. Next time I have to go to the field or am unable to be with my dog she will be the first person I reach out to. I almost felt bad taking him back because I could tell she is going to miss my dog. She is awesome.”

“This is our Nala's second stay with Jacque and her family. They did a great job taking care of her with patience and understanding, as she is not quite the warm and fuzzy type with new people. She had an experience with a trainer when she was a puppy which left her very fearful and sometimes aggressive towards anyone outside of our family. With lots of patience, Jacque and her family were able to peel some of that fear away. All the pictures and videos of her playing with other dogs and sitting on the couch and hanging out with the family is a huge deal for Nala and for our family. We are grateful and were able to visit family off-island with peace of mind. Mahalo for helping our Nala to grow in trusting others and for caring for her.”


“We had a great experience with Karsyn and her husband! We have an elderly dog and I'm typically very wary about leaving her with anyone, but I never had any worries during her stay. They sent regular photos and updates, and it was clear our dog was happy and well cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again!”

“Joel is THE BEST! He is so kind, and I felt very comfortable leaving our pup with him. Everything worked out great. Will definitely have him care for our Maya again!”


“Paige is absolutely wonderful, her personality puts you at ease. She took good care of my fur baby and treated her as her own. Really appreciated the daily updates with pictures!!! My first time using Rover, and it was a very positive experience.”

“"Johenid was amazing! Leaving my cat in a new place is always stressful, but her home was a total cat paradise—safe, quiet, and very welcoming. She gave my cat time to adjust and sent photos of him everyday. I could tell he felt right at home. Drop-off and pick-up were incredibly smooth. I will absolutely board him here again!"”

“Diana was amazing! She kept us updated on our dogs activities during their stay with her and her family. It's very obvious that she loves animals. We highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”

“Our puppy's 2nd time with Samantha and we're all still a huge fan! When we got to her house he was so excited to see her, he barely noticed we were leaving. Thanks Samantha for another fun stay for Miso!”

“Natalia is amazing! Our dogs had a seamless transition to her home, which she made so accommodating to the dogs she hosted. Natalia provided daily photos and updates of their adventures, which were all above and beyond! She was flexible when we thought our plans would be impacted by the Kona Low, every bit of communication was timely and thoughtful.”

“Emma was amazing! Toast fit right in with her family and was loved, adored, and well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone and would absolutely book her again. 100% loves the pups she takes care of!”

“Mango absolutely adored Jessica and her family - the love and care they showed him was purr-fectly evident in his eagerness to return! I'm thoroughly impressed with the top-notch care and warm family atmosphere they provided, and I highly recommend Jessica's services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet caregiver.”

“I would definitely recommend Miho for dog boarding. She took care of our bernedoodle like her own. She constantly gives updates and photos/videos. Our little pup looks so happy and taken cared of during his stay.”

“Yiye and her family were so kind to our dog and made her feel welcome and comfortable. Yiye sent daily pictures and updates as well. I would highly recommend her !”

“Catalina is amazing!! My dog Booker fell in love with her immediately. Catalina is a true animal lover who took wonderful care of my boy. I will definitely be using her again!”

“It’s never easy leaving your fur baby with someone new but, Maddy made Bella feel like family which made this transition so much easier. Maddy is a wonderful dog whisperer and a great fur babysitter. HIGHLY RECOMMEND thank you so much for a wonderful experience.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Pupukea home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Pupukea.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Pupukea sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in HI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
