House Sitting in Spreckelsville

“Hannah is the best! She stayed with our dog, Sofie, over a long weekend and we could not have been happier. Leading up to her stay, she worked with us to get to know Sof, who is nervous of new people and takes some time to build trust, and ensure Sofie’s comfort with her in our home. Sofie quickly adored Hannah, and we are very appreciative of Hannah’s willingness to do a slow intro and relationship-building with our nervous pup. Hannah was also a fabulous house guest- leaving everything just as she found it and even starting the laundry before we returned!- and we would love to have her back anytime. It was a relief knowing she was taking great care of Sofie while we were away, and we loved receiving the photos she took of Sof as well. We will absolutely book with Hannah again!”

“Carey was great! She was very approachable and easy to talk to during the initial meet and great. I appreciate the fact that she has a lot of experience with dogs over the years. She was prompt in arriving at the agreed time. My dog warmed up to her quickly. She sent pictures daily. I really loved that she was able to spend a large amount of time at my house with my dog. We will definitely use Carey in the future. Thank you Carey!”

“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.”

Pam H.

“Jonathan was amazing! Very friendly, obviously loves and understands dogs, kept our place in great shape and our pets happy! The frequent photos helped us overcome our guilt and anxiety about leaving our elder, very attached pooch behind for a quick trip off island. Will definitely use him again and highly recommend to others!”

Lee P.

“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.”

Alexandra B.

“Racheal is very sweet and professional! Our dogs Lucie and Ricky had fun and we felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. We highly recommend her!”

About: What is it about those dog souls? They capture me, each and every one. I am a Registered Nurse with a heart for all dogs. I have had 3 dogs myself, the last one being a bully breed who taught me a great deal of how to work with dogs who require high management. I understand dog behaviors and idiosyncrasies and enjoy working with different personalities. I work from home so can keep eyes on your pup at most all times. I enjoy breaking up the day with a dog walk or training. I am happy to walk, run, play fetch, work on training or any other request during your pups stay. I enjoy spoiling dogs. But I also practice boundaries and behavioral expectations. My rate includes 2 walks a day and/or other exercise. I also provide a stuffed kong and other chewy toys unless you prefer they don't have ☺️ I am a proponent for dog parents to have a fi or gos collar for their pups. I think it's helpful for you as the owner to know where your pup is and the exercise they are getting as well, in an unfortunate/ unlikely event of getting out we can track them. I work from home so am available at most all times. I also have a half acre fenced yard If possible I'd like to do a meet and greet before sitting. I understand the trust it takes to allow someone to take care of you own pup but also to allow into ones home when you are away. I want to ensure owners are comfortable with my level of care and trust you instill with my service

About: I have a husky mix Kea and we are super active! Daily walks and animal care is in my daily routine. I have been doing rover for a long time now. Apart from dogs, I worked/lived at a cat sanctuary in Haiku that had over 200+ cats as well as chickens and cows. My job consisted of feeding, giving medicine/attention, and cleaning after them everyday. I take care of my husky mix Kea everyday! I work from home m-f and have lots of free time. I love to take care of all kinds of animals. I am looking for some extra jobs on the island! I would make sure I am aware of the clients needs and expectations when being in their home. I will be aware of any precautions and contact the owner with any issues. I will take care of the animals with anything that is needed (walking/feeding/put into crate/attention), I am a quick learner and am open to any specific jobs.

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

“Koda loved Myka! We let her know that he has high energy and needs to be pretty active - and she did exactly that for him! She took him to the local dog park and on walks daily and she left our apartment SPOTLESS! She was so communicative and we felt so happy to know he was in such good hands. We would recommend Myka to anyone, and we know Koda would too!”

“Casey took care of our pup while we were off island for a weekend; he even brought him his new favorite toy. Casey is very pleasant and we felt very comfortable with him after our meet and greet. He sent updates with pictures and left our place just as we left it. Our dog had a great time with him and we would definitely work with him again!”

About: I'm a 43-year-old woman who is a full-time pet care and home care provider. About 10 years ago I made the decision to leave professional kitchens in search of a more fulfilling lifestyle. I chose to follow my heart and my dreams of traveling the world. I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, a Professional Culinary Degree from NYC and a TEFL certification from Bangkok. I set up my life to be able to go anywhere and do anything! I have been traveling full-time for the last 10 years as a pet sitter, but have over 20 years of experience as a pet sitter and dog walker. I have recently done long-term sits in Ecuador, Peru, Mexico, and Maui. I have an enormous amount of pet care experience. It ranges from dogs and cats to tropical birds and even a few axolotls! I have a lot of experience with geriatric and end-of-life pet care as well. You can see even more references from past homeowners and pet owners on my website, just search Grace's Buddies. You can be assured, that not only will I treat your pets like my own, but I will spoil them with love and affection. It's my passion. I currently work from home part-time, so I have plenty of time to play and exercise your pets! Your pets will get one-of-a-kind care and tons of hugs and kisses! I will always keep your dog on a lead. Even if you, as the dog owner, have them off of a lead, I will keep them on a lead because of other unknown dog interactions and it is my utmost responsibility to make sure your animals are safe and unharmed in my care.

About: I have been a Rover sitter and dog walker since 2023 and have always had a lifelong love for all animals. Growing up on a farm in rural Nebraska, I was responsible for horses, cattle, pigs, chickens, goats, cats, dogs, and even fish. This hands-on experience honed my understanding of different pet needs and personalities. My cat, Milly, has been a part of my family for 9 years and counting. I have worked at a vet clinic and interned at the California Wildlife Center, which gave me veterinary medical knowledge and skills. I am comfortable with medication administration and special diets. With 20+ years of pet care experience, I'm dedicated to ensuring your fur family receives the utmost care and attention they deserve! I'm thrilled to offer my flexible availability to cater to your pet's needs! I am available on weekdays in the mornings and afternoons, and can schedule for midday as well depending on your location. Most weekends I am available to schedule for any time that suits you best. Based on the pet parent’s guidance, I tailor my care approach to match their pet’s personalities and preferences. I have experience working in veterinary medicine and can help administer any medications or give special diets. Safety, happiness, and well-being are my top priorities.

About: Hi I'm Kelly and caring for animals is my passion! I am currently studying anthrozoology at Evergreen and also working on my first semester of a veterinary technician certification online. I have had pets and been caring for dogs and other animals since a very young age and am an outdoor enthusiast. I have extensive experience housesitting people’s dogs, cats, and even chickens, rabbits, horses and donkeys. I would love to take your dog for a stroll on the beach or a walk through the park or forest. I am very responsible, loving and your animal’s well being, comfort and happiness are my absolute priority. My first vet tech courses and training in technical animal emergency rescue make me even more prepared to take care of your animal in any situation.

“Mandi was so incredible! She took such great care of my Jackson, even taking him to the park multiple times a day to play fetch and sent pictures to keep me updated. She also dealt with his reactivity well which is always a concern of mine when I leave him with others. Responses were quick and as a house guest she left everything clean, even cleaned the bedding in her room which was so kind and nice to come back to one less chore after a busy vacation.”

“Sandra took great care of all of our babies. She has great communication and kept us updated while we were gone.”

“It was such a joy to come home to a clean house, happy, well fed cats, and alive house plants. Makana provided us with regular updates and photos of our pets. She even fed a little stray that we have taken under our wing. If you are looking for a great house and pet sitter, contact Makana.”
