About: My parents have been fostering pitbulls my entire life. I’ve always lived with at least 2 cats and 2 dogs in the house, and have extensive experience walking dogs, administering medicines, and house sitting! I currently work at UH Manoa in the greenhouse and biology lab, and take classes online so my schedule is very flexible! I love to go on walks morning and evenings, so taking care of pets fits perfectly into my routine. I work well with dogs of all sizes, including pitbulls and terriers. I can strap them into a harness, crate them, and walk 2 at a time.
“Kai loved Isabella! Communication great, she was able to adapt to my schedule, and I came home to a smiley happy dog! I think Kai suckered Isabella into getting more treats than she normally gets, but that is totally fine! (Kai loves treats) Would definitely recommend!”

“Samantha truly went above and beyond for our family. We live on a military installation and she took the extra step and got base access in order to care for our furbabies. She is warm, welcoming,and took amazing care of our furbabies and home. I got daily pictures of a happy dog and cat and came home to a clean home (possibly cleaner than I left it).I cannot say enough wonderful things about Samantha. Highly recommend!”
About: I have plenty of sitting experience ranging from short stays of 3-4 days to long stays for more than 30 days in Europe for friends and family (first time turning my hobby as a job, if you need recommendation don't hesitate to ask me). Dogs, cats, I get along with them all and can handle any necessary household task. To me pets are members of the family. My purpose is to keep things running smoothly while you're away and provide necessary care. I am extremely responsible and resourceful, so I am usually good at quickly fitting into a new place. I'm also a home and flat owner so I understand the responsibilities that come with both and am super tidy and considerate. I'm an international (from Portugal/Switzerland) part time student at KCC, since I have a lot of virtual classes I spend a lot of time staring at my computer screen and greatly appreciate it when I’ve animals about to distract me. I’ve had some house-sitting cats take the role of supervisor very seriously over the years, and my class mates always enjoy the feline interruptions during video meetings. Animals have always inspired me and spending time with them is one of my favorite things. I’m happy to answer any questions you have, so please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!
About: Aloha, after laying my sweet boy Reggie to rest, I have decided to turn my grief into a positive transformation. I have extensive knowledge caring for senior dogs as well as puppies. I grew up fostering Labrador Retrievers through Labs 4 Rescue. I have plenty of time throughout the day for a morning, afternoon, and evening walk. I love slow morning dog cuddles on the couch, its the perfect way to start the day! My property is fenced and close to the bike path! My large grassy yard is perfect for a game of fetch. I live in a studio in a large house.
“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!”

“We have two grown dogs and a puppy, so Annabelle definitely had her hands full, but she did great. She stayed at our house. The dogs totally fell in love with her. Can’t wait to use her again.”

“Yasmeen took really wonderful care of Momo! She made sure to keep me updated without me asking and was timely with her visits. The videos she sent showed how well she and Momo got along which made me very comfortable leaving him in her hands. I will definitely book Yasmeen again next time I need a cat sitter!”
About: Aloha! I’m Lisa, and caring for pets has always been a joyful part of my life. I grew up with a family dog from my teenage years through early adulthood, and I was responsible for feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love. More recently, I’ve been trusted to pet sit for friends in their homes, making sure their pets felt safe and cared for while their owners were away. What sets me apart is the attention I give to both pets and their people—I’m happy to send photos, video updates, or do video calls so you feel comfortable and connected while you’re away. Because I work from home in Human Resources, I can be with your pet throughout the day, giving them companionship, care, and attention. I pride myself on being loving, reliable, and attentive to details—whether that’s sticking to a routine, noticing changes in behavior, or giving extra cuddles. My goal is for you to return home to a happy, healthy, and well-cared-for pet. Since I work from home full-time, I can easily integrate pet care into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which means I can provide regular walks, play breaks, and plenty of attention between my work tasks. Mornings and evenings are flexible for longer walks, and I’m available on weekends as well. Your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches—I’ll be around to keep them company, stick to their routine, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make safety, trust, and comfort my top priorities. I follow all instructions carefully—feeding schedules, walks, medications, and play routines—so your pet stays on their normal schedule and feels secure. I’m mindful about keeping your home safe as well, always checking that doors, gates, and leashes are secure. I know that inviting someone into your home is a matter of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I respect your space by keeping things tidy, cleaning up after pets, and leaving everything as I found it. While I don’t provide general housekeeping or cleaning services, I do make sure food and water areas are refreshed and that your pet’s space is clean and comfortable. You can also count on me for open communication—I’ll send photos, updates, or video calls if you’d like—so you feel reassured that your pet and home are in caring, reliable hands. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own: with love, patience, and attention.
About: I have been blessed to have grown up with dogs in my household so being with them is like being with family. For 17years I got to learn common behaviors, body language, and how to do basic training with them. I get along well with all animals, but I love being with dogs the most. I am very reliable and believe communication is key, it's very important in providing the best care as possible. I am available most days but I just need a heads up so I can plan and prepare for your pet. I can give full care to your pets such as feeding, walking, bathing and even some much needed belly scratches. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pet! Mahalo for your consideration. I am a home caregiver and have short hours throughout the week usually 8am-12pm and off for the rest of the day. Weekends are completely open and I can be with your pet. I do not have a yard, but we often get out of the house and go to the park or to a nearby beach to let out some energy. I work 8-12pm and off for the rest of the day. So fitting in a drop in or a walk is perfect! So getting in your pets daily walk while you’re away at work fits perfectly with my schedule. I have pet seat belts when going for car rides to the beach or to a hike to keep them safe while transporting. Keeping all gates and doors closed while in the home will avoid any quick get aways.
“Thanks so much again for taking care of my cats. Thank you for your patience with my two new kittens and able to introduce them safely to my cranky adult cat. Tale care”
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and truly enjoy spending time with both dogs and cats. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing, or just giving lots of cuddles and attention, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. I understand how important our furry friends are, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own while you’re away. I work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule to care for pets throughout the day. Whether it’s stopping in for a visit, going on a walk, or spending extra time keeping your pets company, I’m able to adjust my hours to fit their needs. This allows me to give them plenty of attention and care whenever it’s needed. I take pet care seriously and always pay close attention to the little details that make each animal feel comfortable and happy. From following feeding routines exactly to noticing changes in behavior or mood, I make sure your pets get the care they’re used to and deserve. I believe every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’m dedicated to giving them the best possible attention while you’re away.
“Excellent service from Alexis for our pup. Very trustworthy and took great care of our four-legged family member. Would highly recommend her for others looking for pet care!”


About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have experience training puppies, as I have raised 2 of my own. I also am experienced caring for dogs with difficult personalities and quirks. Over this summer I fostered a lab who had been hit by a snake and was in charge of administering her medication at the right times. On the days I’m not working, I am very available to take care of your pups or kitties! I am available on weekdays & weekends from sunrise to sunset. I have a fenced yard that I have at my home that a dog would have fun playing in. I am also a very active person and am always going on runs, walks, hikes, and trips to the beach which I am more than willing to bring your pet on.
“First off I have never had anyone stay at my house to sit Mattis. I am very particular of my personal space more so allowing a stranger into my house while O was away for thousands of miles. I did not know that Leonard only provided sitting at one’s home here in Hawaii (in Texas he boards). However, after reading Leonard’s reviews, and realizing this, I decided to get outside my comfort zone and allow a stranger into my house, based on his past reviews. After having Leonard come by the house to meet Madison and to show him around to set expectations, I felt much much more ease. However, the doubt and concern were still there. Leonard not only met but he exceeded way above and beyond my expectations this experience. My entire house to include the common areas and the room for Leonard to sleep was completely intact. Walking into my house it felt like nobody had been there. Mattis was well cared for, did not smell, was in great spirits, and appeared to have been well taken care of. Leonard understood the little nuisances when taking Mattis out and the small details on how Mattis reacts to other dogs to include lizards LOL. I 100% recommend Leonard to anyone needing attention to detail and love looking after their pupper. Leonard is a good man, gentle, caring, and all around respectful when staying at your home. He will communicate as much or as little as you want. I left for a week and returned to my house exactly how I left it and maybe even better than as if I was here. Mahalo nui loa Leonard🤙🫶”
About: I’ve cared for pets almost my entire life and have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies who need structure and consistency, as well as older dogs who require patience, gentleness, and a slower pace. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, and any special needs to make sure every pet feels safe and cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, basic training, or simply keeping your pet company, I always treat animals like they’re my own. I’m reliable, calm, and very detail-oriented, which helps pets settle in quickly. I take the time to understand each animal’s temperament so they feel comfortable and supported. I’m experienced with puppy basics like crate training, leash manners, and reinforcing good habits. I’m also confident with senior dogs who may need slower walks, medication reminders, or extra monitoring. Communication is a big priority for me—I send plenty of updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you complete peace of mind. I’m currently working part time on the weekends and I’m free during the week. So I’ll have plenty of time to care for you’re pets! I make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable. My home has a big fenced yard with nice grass and plenty of space to run around. Inside, there’s lots of room to relax and play too. I keep a close eye on pets, follow their routines, and make sure they feel right at home the whole time.
About: I regard pets as children. Those who know me trust me to care for their pets with love, patience, energy and compassion. I am flexible. I work from home on a part time basis - this affords me to be available according to your needs. (Early mornings, all day and early evenings for feeding, playing and walking). My focus and care is to provide your pet with the daily routine they know. I am dedicated to keep your pet feeling safe, happy and loved at all times.

“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.”

Maryia and Spencer did a fantastic job with Zeus, who can be full of energy and a bit stubborn at times. They were able to take Zeus on beach walks, hikes, and kept him engaged while we were away. Thanks for taking wonderful care of our dog. Will definitely used them again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Pupukea
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Pupukea on Rover is $33.92 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 926 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pupukea. 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 Pupukea 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 Pupukea 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 Pupukea 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pupukea. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
