About: I have taken care of all kinds of pets for over 40 years. I have trained all sizes of dogs for obedience and hand signal commands. I am assertive and confident with dogs to build trust and loyalty. I am also good with other animals having run a farm for over 20 years. There is a section on this profile that states I do not allow pets on the furniture.. That information is not correct...I can't seem to change it. I am retired and looking for part time work in the Waikoloa area. Caring for animals everyday is something I am good at and it would be a dream job for me I have a fenced yard and a large inside area for pets. I am able to come to clients home to care for their pets.

About: With over 30 years of experience caring for pets, I’ve had the pleasure of looking after a diverse range of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, sheep, fish, and birds. At one point, I managed a household with five dogs, which has honed my skills in addressing the unique needs of each pet, whether it’s for walks, potty breaks, or short-term care while you're away. I’m comfortable with all dog breeds—small, large, puppies, and seniors. Currently, my home is pet-free following the recent passing of my 12-year-old Pitbull, Poha, allowing me to offer focused and loving care for your furry family members. I have a very flexible schedule allowing plenty of time for visits to your home, walks, feedings, as well as tending to your pet's needs if they are at my home for boarding. I know how hard it is to trust your pet's care and comfort with "just anyone". After fully discussing your pets needs and your expectations, the care of your pet will be my priority. Based on your preferences, I am happy to send photos and communicate updates to you often. I am also available by phone/text if you want to reach out with questions, concerns, or just to say hi to your pet! If visiting your home, I will follow your instructions carefully and always ask if I am unsure of any details (never making assumptions). I am also respectful of your space and responsible in ensuring your pet(s) and home are safe upon my departure. If your pet(s) are visiting my home - I have a large, fully fenced back yard with a covered porch for play time and relaxing in the sun/shade. The interior of my home is pet friendly as well!

About: Aloha! My name is Chenoa and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life! I grew up with cats, dogs, birds, and fish so I have a vast knowledge of them all. Over the years I’ve had Belgium Sheepdogs, Labs, Boarder Collies, “poi” dogs, and currently I own 5, yes, 5 Shelties! Shelties are best known here in Hawaii as the CPB bank commercial dog! They’re an active breed that requires lots of activity and of course, grooming. I am an active member of the Hilo Obedience Training Club, The Hawaiian Herding Dog Association, and am a board member of the Shetland Sheepdog Club of Hawaii. I have spent the last 7 years actively training and competing in obedience and rally trials as well as AKC dog shows. Caring for my dogs has taught me a lot-from administering medication, tailoring diets, training, exercising to grooming, this hobby breeder can do it all! I’ll tend for your special furry babies with love and care whether grooming, walking, or just keeping them company!

“I’ve worked with Annie for a while and she is probably the most cheerful, kind and reliable person out there. You can tell she has a caring heart and a strong foundation in managing schedules and tasks. I know she will adore and take great care of your pets!”

“Emma is great with animals of all kinds. She’s taken care of our family’s pets, which mostly include large dogs like Mastiffs & Great Pyrenees and small dogs like French bulldogs. This has gone beyond just basic care, including medication and transport as well. Overall, she’s very experienced when it comes to animal care and I would recommend her to others as well!”

“Jeremy has watched my dog at his home countless times, and I know when my dog is in his care, she’s in good hands. Jeremy goes on multiple walks a day with her including on hiking trails and the nature park and has a fenced in back yard for her to roam when they’re at home. He has bathed her and has even taught her a few tricks! Also I like that he regularly sends me pictures of her while I’m away. Jeremy has also done drop-in visits for my cat and two guinea pigs, and again, I can trust that my pets are in good hands. I highly recommend his services!”
