“Kyrie is awesome!! Can’t recommend highly enough. Rosie gets so excited whenever she realizes we’re heading to her house. She’s treated like family, gets to run around safely in a gated yard, and has become besties with Kyrie’s toddler. We appreciate all the photos and videos we get when we’re away, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing our pup is in good hands with a great sitter and family.”
“Jacque saved us with this last minute boarding booking! She was incredibly responsive and sent us updates often. Phoebe had the BEST time playing at their home. Jacque truly treats Phoebe like she is one of their own, making Phoebe feel right at home.”
“At this point we joke that when Giz goes to Greg's house. That it's his vacation from us. He doesn't even look back when we drop him off. Might offer to share custody soon. In all seriousness, Greg has afforded us the ability to take trips again and know that without a shadow of a doubt that Giz is taken care off. He sends us action shots of the dogs and always gives us updates. We literally can not ask for more. He's the best.”
“Awesome dog sitter!! Bently enjoyed his time with his new friends away from home. I received pictures daily of his activities. I will be a repeat customer!!!!”
“Our pup was so loved and well cared for with Jessica and her family. She got lots of exercise and outdoor time and lots of cuddles. So greatly appreciated! Will definitely use her again.”
“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!”
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful! In fact, she's such a great sitter that I almost hesitate to write this review because selfishly, I'd love to keep her availability to myself! This was our very first time leaving our puppy with a sitter, and naturally we were a little nervous. Samantha immediately put our minds at ease. Before our trip, she took the time to meet with us and show us where our puppy would be staying in her home, which made us feel so much more comfortable and confident. While we were away for nearly two weeks, Samantha kept us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos. It meant so much to know our puppy was happy, safe, and well cared for while we were gone. What impressed us even more was that she actually helped reinforce our puppy's potty training during our time away. We came home to a puppy who had continued making progress, which was such a pleasant surprise! Samantha is truly a sweetheart, and it's obvious that she has a genuine love for animals and a heart for what she does. The care, attention, and affection she showed our puppy exceeded all of our expectations. We are so grateful we came across Samantha and couldn't recommend her more highly. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“McKenley and her husband were so great with Athena ! They took her in like she was their own. They were very open to letting me come visit and had great communication throughout the time of her being there. Athena had a great time with their little pug, going on walks and hikes. I would definitely recommend this little family and will use them again in the future if need be !”
“Thank you Senne! Senne was very kind and also sent photos and updates of our pup so we knew our pup she was well taken care of. I would recommend Senne for dogsitting and consider having our pup stay with her again while we are away. Again, thank you Senne!”
“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!”
“Krysta and Peter are wonderful people and were so easy to work with! They took the best care of our dog Luna. We will always go back to them for any of our future dog sitting needs in the Kailua area😄 They were so thoughtful, kept us updated with great photos, and reassured us that we had nothing to worry about, given it being our first time using the app. Highly recommend!”
“Our hunny bunny loved his stay with Diana and family. Diana sends updates daily with pictures which made us feel at ease. Will definitely book with her again!!!”
“Haily did an amazing job taking care of Oakley! She far exceeded my expectations. She would update me daily on Oakley’s day, send tons of pictures and even videos of him playing with her pups! You can tell how much she loves and cares for each pup she watches. Oakley loved his stay, and did not want to leave ? I will definitely book with Haily again!”
“My dog had the best time with Lauren and her family. First I worried a little because my dog didn’t have much experience with small children but turned out to be just fine. I was so grateful that they took care of my dog so well. I could tell in her face(my dog) that she had a great time with them. Mahalo Lauren!”
“Yvette was truly great! The pups had a wonderful time with her and she gave daily updates. She was very accommodating to my last minute changing schedule. Was so happy to have been able to book her and love on the pups!”
“We have used Keala a couple of times before and love the fact that our baby Bruiser loves being with her family. Thank you so much for taking care of Bruiser. I know he always has a great time with you. Yes, we are repeat client and yes, she will always be the first one we call. Thank you so much!!”
“I can’t recommend Erika enough! My pup has some medical issues which made me nervous to leave him, but Erika made me feel so reassured and took the best care of him I could’ve asked for. I especially appreciated the communication and how quickly she responded. Erika made him feel so comfortable and treated him like her own! Highly recommend!”

“Keala was amazing. Very attentive and communicative. Appreciated the questions she asked in prep of caring for my cats - Sophia and Rain - and all the care and feedback she gave while I was away. Made the trip so much enjoyable knowing they were being well cared for. Thank you.”
“Mary-Ann was great. Attentive to each cats personality. Knew when to play and knew when they just needed love (lots of pets). She helped put our mind at ease while traveling.”
About: I’m an experienced and attentive cat sitter with over 10 years of caring for pets in clients’ homes, including households with both cats and dogs. I understand that cats thrive on routine and a calm environment, so I take extra care to keep their space clean, stress-free, and consistent. I’ve successfully cared for cats alongside dogs, making sure each pet gets the individualized attention they need. What sets me apart is my patience and ability to read feline behavior—whether your cat is social and playful or more reserved and independent. I prioritize gentle handling, cleanliness (including litter box care), and creating a safe, comfortable space while you’re away.
About: I grew up caring for cats of all sizes and needs, and now am a proud cat owner myself! I know each cat has its own personality and have experience with shy and antisocial kitties as well as friendly and loving ones!
About: A few of my friends got cats during covid and I started watching them when the world opened up and My friend's started traveling again. I can feed cats, clean litter boxes, and give them some play time. One set of kittens I took hiking in their outdoor backpack!
“Andrea was wonderful. She took great care of our shy boy Julius and went above and beyond. We were so grateful to know we had someone kind, caring and responsible while we were away. We will definitely hire her again!”
About: Aloha. I'm Summer. I am a stay-at-home wife and mom looking to bring in some extra income. I have loved animals since forever. I grew up with pets (dogs, cats, a rabbit, and fish). I have experience house sitting with pets, dog walking, and worked in an animal hospital. I don't have any fur babies of my own yet, but I do have a fur nephew, Ninja who I love very much. I am able to give medication if needed. I'm currently available Monday through Friday in the morning to the early afternoons. Weekends I am typically unavailable, but for the right pet, I can adjust my schedule. I will care for your home and your pet as if it's my family. I am respectful of boundaries, and rules even if it doesn't line up with my own beliefs. I understand that pets are very important to families and would never take that lightly.
“Victoria took great care of Biscuit and was so communicative & helpful! This was our first time using Rover and would definitely recommend her services to anyone!”
“She did an amazing job! I appreciate her report cards and she did an awesome job at taking pictures of their activities. She was very professional and just the dog sitter/walker my dog needed! Will definitely rebook her!”
“Jamie was such a great kitty-sitter!!! She followed all the instructions, and loved up on them, so I knew my kitties were in good hands! It is the first time I hired someone to come into my home, so I was a little nervous. But Jamie exceeded my expectations! Highly recommended!”
“Karen and Tony have been dropping in to my apartment for take care of my cats for some time now. They are responsive, reliable, and very easy to communicate with. I trust them fully and definitely recommend them to anyone!”
About: I have taken care of cats since I was 15 years old! I love watching kitties and ensuring they receive cuddles, timely feedings and alone time if they are the solitude type. A fun fact about me is I raised a kitten from 3 days old, his name is Sigmund! I also have base access so I can help military families with their furry family members as well!
About: I've had pets my whole life growing up. I’ve cared for dogs and cats in home settings, following detailed routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I’m comfortable with pets of different personalities—from energetic, playful dogs to shy or anxious pets who need patience and reassurance. I’m very safety-conscious and always double-check leashes, doors, and gates. I pay close attention to behavior and health, and I communicate clearly with owners if anything seems out of the ordinary. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away—like you never left. I currently have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to accommodate early mornings, mid-day visits, evenings, and weekends. This allows me to work around your pet’s routine rather than fitting them into a rigid schedule. Whether your pet needs consistent check-ins, longer walks, or extra attention during the day, I’m happy to tailor care to what works best for you and your pet. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are my top priorities during every walk and drop-in visit. I’m careful to double-check leashes, doors, and gates, and I stay aware of surroundings to keep your pet safe at all times. I treat your home with respect, follow your instructions closely, and provide reliable, consistent care. During visits, I focus on creating a positive, comfortable environment—whether that’s a good walk, feeding time, potty breaks, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. I’m happy to follow any specific routines, preferences, or safety instructions you have for your pet.
About: I have experience in training service animals. I also have a three year old Lab mix with pit bull named blue because he has one brown and one blue eye! I also have a mini poodle named coconut! Only coconut lives with me right now but I have raised/trained 3 other dogs in the past 5 years. Very comfortable with any kind of dog, big or small and will take care of your fur child like they are my own! I am currently a full-time student taking online classes so I am home a lot which means I have plenty of time to play and take care of animals. I am available every day! I have a very loving/friendly mini Poodle who loves other dogs but can be separated if needed. I have a fenced in yard and a crate if your dog needs it. Plenty of toys and treats to keep them happy as well! I am in general a big animal/ pet lover! If you choose me as your sitter it is guaranteed love and comfort for you’re fur babies!!!
About: I'm responsible, dependable and I love doggies I have never watched or taken care of other people's doggies before. But I'm willing to learn and have fun doing it. When my parents are away I watch my parents doggies. I'm looking for a second income because I live on my own. It's hard to live in Hawaii and not have extra income coming in. I just started a new job at Gyotaku in Aikahi Shopping Center.
“Tianna was amazing and helped keep my stress to a minimum while traveling! She sent regular messages and pictures when checking in on my cat and was sure to give him a little extra love as needed!”

“Piya is wonderful! We truly appreciate her flexibility when taking care of our sweet Bella while we went on a family boat ride. I’d definitely ask her again to take care of our little one. Thank you Piya! :-)”
“Very friendly and accommodating of a trip to San Antonio. Received pictures of the dogs playing and updated throughout the stay. Highly recommend. Great fenced yard to play in and inside playroom to cool off. Would book again if in the area.”
“Rose was incredible with Kuma!! She responded to all of my messages quickly, sent photos, kept her busy and happy all day. She was also very flexible when I had to push back my pick up time. I will absolutely be booking with Rose again!! 😊”
About: 🌺 I will be on hiatus July-August for surgery and recovery🌺 I bring over 10 years of hands-on experience working with animals, including more than 5 years as a kennel assistant and 5 years as a veterinary assistant. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve developed strong skills in administering medications, including insulin and asthma treatments. My time in a veterinary hospital has also given me valuable experience working with animals of all temperaments, allowing me to stay calm, patient, and attentive in any situation. I’m a full-time pet sitter, which means your pet gets my complete time, attention, and care. I’m dedicated to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved, and that their time with me is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I have 5 years of veterinary medical experience and feel confident providing a wide range of care for pets of all needs—from those requiring more involved medical support to those who simply need extra love and cuddles. I take cleanliness and safety seriously, thoroughly cleaning and sanitizing between each client to ensure a healthy, comfortable environment for your furry friend.
“Excellent daycare for my young pups. Greg clearly knows how to manage dogs of all kinds and was easy to trust with my 3m old pups. His dog got along great with them and their yard was a fantastic area to get some exercise. Greg also provided walks in a lush green area of the island. Highly recommend!”
“Shauna greeted us friendly and was able to see in early morning. Our family went to Kualoa Ranch which has no pet policy so we had Shauna for few hours. After pet sitting, my dog vomited few times since he ate sitter's dog food and I haven't been informed that.”
“My 1 year old lab loves being at Dale and Lauren’s for doggy day care. Lauren sent us many pictures/videos throughout the day and I could tell my fur baby was having so much fun. I trust them 100% to take great care of my girl, Violet. We already booked boarding for another stay coming up! Definitely would recommend to anyone interested!”
“This is the first time I left Snuggles at Tracey's home. He was there for only 4 hours to try out. Tracey's mom sent lots of photos within those 4 hours. Snuggles came home relaxed, seemed to have a great time at Tracey's home. Will try to leave Snuggles for a longer time next visit until he gets adjusted to stay overnight.”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong, hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’ve grown up caring for Labs, Rottweilers, Chihuahuas, Border Collies, Huskies, and a Mini Goldendoodle — so I understand everything from high-energy working breeds to small companion dogs. When I was 14 years old, I became the primary caregiver for my Chihuahua, who was under a year old when we brought her home. I cared for her throughout her entire life, including providing attentive, compassionate senior care as her needs changed in her later years. That experience taught me responsibility, patience, and how to adjust care as dogs age. I’ve also cared for an energetic Husky, so I’m very comfortable with active dogs who need structured exercise and mental stimulation. I raised my Mini Goldendoodle from 6 weeks old and handled all of her training, so I’m confident working with puppies and reinforcing good habits. I truly believe dogs deserve an enriching life beyond the home. I love beach walks and hikes, and I tailor each outing to match a dog’s energy level and personality. While dogs may be part of our world, to them we are their whole world — and I care for every dog as if they were my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I work remotely from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, potty breaks, and attention for dogs in my care. During working hours, I’m available for shorter walks (up to 30 minutes), drop-ins, and in-home care. My meeting schedule varies day to day, so timing during work hours will need flexibility, but I always communicate clearly to coordinate a time that works best. After 3:00 PM, I have full availability for longer walks, outings, and dedicated time with your dog. In My Home: Dogs staying with me have access to my office/guest room, the main living areas, and a fully fenced backyard at all times. Because I work remotely from 7:00 AM–3:00 PM, I’m home throughout the day to provide supervision, companionship, potty breaks, and attention. Dogs are never isolated and can stay near me while I work, helping them feel comfortable and secure. They’ll also have the opportunity to play with my docile and friendly Mini Goldendoodle, Nova, who loves having company. Of course, I always prioritize safe, positive introductions and will separate dogs if needed to ensure everyone feels comfortable. I provide regular walks, playtime, and enrichment based on each dog’s energy level — whether that’s relaxed outdoor time or more active exercise. I follow feeding schedules, routines, and any specific care instructions closely to make the transition from your home to mine as smooth as possible. Drop-In Visits (Client’s Home): For drop-ins, I focus on keeping your dog’s routine consistent in their familiar environment. Visits can include feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and lots of attention. I always respect your home and leave it exactly as I found it, and I provide updates so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Arianah is a wonderful sitter for Levi. She always gets him to eat all his food and takes care of him like her own dogs! Levi loves hanging out with her when I have to work.”
About: 40 years of experience for those looking for one on one care with in depth knowledge and fondness of animals with lots of cuddles and TLC provided while you are away. I will be able to provide one on one care with lots of time to play with attentiveness for your furry kid while you are away. Your pet will get TLC, cuddles and care with three walks a day, can administer medications and special diets and care while you are away.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes for over 15 years and have extensive experience providing loving, attentive care. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and dependable to care for your pets. I currently have a dog named Dolly, who is a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet with the same patience, attention, and care I would want for my own. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to provide reliable and attentive pet care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship to help pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pets in my home receive plenty of attention, supervision, and exercise throughout the day. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I take dogs on regular walks and use a secure backyard lead for safe outdoor time, bathroom breaks, and fresh air. I always prioritize pets’ comfort, safety, and routines to help them feel at home.
About: I’ve been the primary caretaker for my dog for the past 7 years, handling everything from daily walks and feedings to baths and medication. I walk him at least four times a day and try to get in a longer mile-ish walk a few times a week so he can explore at his own pace. I’ve also cared for several friends’ dogs for multi-day stays ranging from a couple of days to over a week. Between that and growing up around pets, I’m very comfortable reading a dog’s personality and routine. My wife has lived with dogs her whole life as well, so our home is very dog friendly. Dogs are welcome on the couch and our own dog sleeps in bed with us. I’ve also done a fair bit of basic training with him. I taught him “wait” (stay), helped him get comfortable with paw cleaning after walks, and even set up a little “dog nest” on the bed that he now uses as his sleeping spot. I’m attentive to routines, meds, and the little details that make pets feel comfortable. I work from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my day. I’m around most of the time and able to give dogs attention, bathroom breaks, and supervision throughout the day. Our normal routine is a morning outing, one in the afternoon, another around 5–6pm, and a final one around 9pm before bed. If a dog needs to go out sooner or starts pawing at the door, I’m always happy to take them out. I try to fit in longer walks when the weather and work schedule allow, usually in the evenings. Because I’m home during the day, pets aren’t left alone for long stretches and get plenty of interaction. I work from home and have a wrap-around fenced yard, so dogs have plenty of safe space to wander and get fresh air. I keep a close eye on them when they’re outside and follow their normal routines as closely as possible. Inside, dogs are welcome to relax and make themselves comfortable. Our home is very dog friendly, and we’re used to having pets around. If a dog needs to be crated for sleeping or while we step out briefly, we do have a crate available. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications, and any specific instructions from owners. I’m also happy to send photos or videos throughout the stay so you can see how your pet is doing.
“Bella had a great time with Jacquelyn! Jacquelyn was very communicative and flexible about timing for drop off and pick up. We definitely want her to watch Bella again ❤️ Thank you 😊”

About: I’ve taken care of a handful of dogs before and every experience I’ve had was nothing short of amazing. I hope to have the privilege to experience more of that. I’m currently unemployed and hoping to make a little money so fitting your babies into my schedule is no problem at all as I'm only doing school now. I currently only have Guinea pigs and cats in my home, we have had dogs before but not anymore. I would say the care I give my animals goes above and beyond, I absolutely adore my babies so nothing is too much for them. I feed, play and clean up after them every single day and I really do enjoy all of it. Animals are absolutely my passion and i hope to pursue something long term involving them and so it is my absolute pleasure to watch over your babies because they get me one step closer to being able to do that. Two words I would use to describe my cats, loved and spoiled.
“I never used Rover before and I am a helicopter dog mom but Haily made me feel comfortable. I love the video and pictures that i get throughout the day she’s with him. Milo (my puppy) absolutely loves going to doggy daycare with her.”
About: Hi! I have 2 small dogs of my own so I understand what it's like choosing a sitter. I work from home so I have a flexible schedule. I have experience giving oral medication and shots because my previous dogs had Diabetes, Cushing's, Pancreatitis, Dementia, etc. I have also watched dogs with heart/stomach/back/vision/hearing issues. I will care for your dog(s) as if they were my own with extra belly rubs, back scratches and face massages! I don't mind your dog sleeping in my bed or we can use their crate. <3 <3 I have a flexible schedule during the week because I work from home. I often work out of the house 1-2 days over the weekend from about 7am-3pm. I can make sure my mom is here if I am at work so they won't be left alone for a long period of time. She stays in the same house so there are usually two of us here. I understand it can be scary to leave your fur babies with someone else. Rest assured that they will be safe (#1 priority!) and comfortable. I won't bug you with every little thing so you don't stress out, but I will also send you pics because I know you miss them! I have experience with anxious/needy dogs and can adapt my schedule accordingly.
“Truffles had such a lovely time with Sherrie & family. They took such great care of him, giving lots of love and play and activities for him to do. He has lots of great memories, and I definitely recommend Sherrie and will rebook.”
“Gina was so accommodating. We were trying to book a day that overlapped with another one of her clients. Our dog is not friendly with all dogs so we were hesitant to go ahead with it. Gina suggested we set up a meet & greet with the 2 dogs and arranged it. It was a success. She was great with the dogs introduction. We are so happy. Now our dog has a new friend and we were able to book our much needed daycare. I also so appreciate how quick she is to respond to booking requests. I almost hate to give a good review because I want to keep her just for my dog ?”

About: I used to always take care of my friends pets when I used to live in military housing, I’d take care of cats and dogs alike, some for weeks at a time. Pets are my favorite part of every day, I have 2 sweet kitties at home I hang out with, and I love them more than anything. I’m a full time student right now looking to help earn some extra cash while my spouse is deployed. I love long walks, or chilling and playing with cats and dogs to keep them entertained throughout the day. I have two cats at home so while I cannot board any pets, I do have a ton of experience with caring for various animals. I’m great at getting vomit stains out of carpet, and scooping up litter!
About: We've had dogs and cats since both of us were young and grew up caring for and loving our four leggy fluffy friends. From small to large, shy to outgoing, and young to old we have plenty of cuddles to share. *BOARDING SERVICES pls read thoroughly* We both currently work full-time (M-F; off Sat & Sun) but often come home daily for a lunch break and can provide midday potty breaks. On the weekends, we're typically exploring with our dog on a hike or playing fetch on the beach. Our schedule can be flexible to provide additional evening walks and/or pick up + drop off for boarding services. During the weekdays that we both work, our dogs Maile & Miller stay outside in an extra large shaded 8X8 kennel custom built on Trex decking. Our kennel has ample space for up to 2 large 70lb+ dogs to lay, roll, walk, and stretch out comfortably. Pau hana, Maile & Miller hang out in the garden with us or they lounge inside on the couch. During the work week, our boarding furry friend has the option to chill in the kennel solo or with 1 of our dogs as a companion. All doggos are kept indoors at night and welcome to sleep in our room with plush beds. **IMPORTANT READ** This boarding service is best suited for dogs who are comfortable with being left alone for several hours, are accustom to a kennel, are not food aggressive, and enjoy the company of other dogs.
About: Hello! I am looking to spend time with your furry family member! I have grown up with pets my whole life, so I understand the time and commitment it takes to love and care for them. I have experience walking dogs big and small so that I can take your pup for a short walk or long adventure. Looking forward to meeting you and helping out with all of your pet sitting needs. I currently work a hybrid 9-6 job. I am most free in the early mornings and certain days over the lunch hour or early afternoon. I am comfortable watching your pet indoors or outdoors, at the beach or at the park. I am very careful and good at following any special instructions or directions.
About: Aloha! I am a dog-loving, mom of three boys, two dogs, and a military spouse of 15 years. Being flexible and dependable is pretty much my lifestyle. I grew up with dogs, and I’ve personally cared for my own since I was an adult. I have also fostered rescue dogs for Okinawa Stray Pet Rescue. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, all sizes, and dogs from newborn puppy to 15 year old seniors with very limited mobility. I am probably over paranoid when it comes to safety, so you can trust that your dog will be in good, responsible hands! I understand that each dog is unique, and I treat each one as if they were my own. I know how important it is to feel confident in who you choose to care for your fur baby, and I’m happy to provide what your pup needs! My only time constraints are shuttling kids to and from school and activities so I have lots of free time to spend with your pup! As previously mentioned, I am very cautious and your dog’s safety is my top priority. I have personally owned dogs who are “runners” so I’m constantly aware of my surroundings and the dog’s behavior when caring for them.
About: 40 years of experience for those looking for one on one care with in depth knowledge and fondness of animals with lots of cuddles and TLC provided while you are away. I will be able to provide one on one care with lots of time to play with attentiveness for your furry kid while you are away. Your pet will get TLC, cuddles and care with three walks a day, can administer medications and special diets and care while you are away.
“I have waited to review MaryAnn until after 2 weeks of walking my lab Megan. She has been a godsend and treats Megan wonderfully. My wife and I can't keep up with the attention Megan needs as we got older than we expected due to circumstances. MaryAnn has been walking Megan regularly 4 times per week as we wanted, Megan has a big yard so she can get out as needed, but walks provide socialization that the dog needs. We are thrilled with MaryAnn and how great she is to our dog. Anyone wanting a really good dog walker would be lucky to have MaryAnn.”
About: I got my first dog when I was 4 and started dog sitting for neighbors when I was 8. I worked with a group when I lived in Kansas City that did short term in-home dog fostering for 1 day to two weeks. My puppy experience comes from a few of my friends having puppies, but adult dogs are my favorite. I work full time from home, and can schedule walks in between meetings during the day. If the dog(s) are up for it I would love to take them hiking, SUPing, kayaking, to the beach, and to hang out with my friend's dogs. I prefer to keep the dog on a similar schedule to what they are used to and not overwhelm them with new experiences while their owners are gone. Please provide me with the needed information of your dog's routine.
“Alexis was awesome and took great care of Ridge. She has excellent communication and really does take pride in caring for your animals. I felt very comfortable with her and I’d be happy to have her care for my pup any day.”

I am respectful of boundaries, and rules even if it doesn't line up with my own beliefs. I understand that pets are very important to families and would never take that lightly.
“Awesome experience with Tony taking care of our pups. He was so sweet with them, and sent pictures every day to ease my anxious dog-mom mind. Communication was excellent, and Tony was flexible with taking care of each dog's individual needs and quirks. Would definitely use Tony and Karen again when the need arises!”
About: Hi! I recently made the move to beautiful Hawaiʻi, and I’m so excited to be part of this community — especially the pet-loving one! Living here has made me appreciate even more how important daily movement, sunshine, and fresh air are (for both humans and pups!). While working full-time in my professional HR career, I spent two years dog walking with Pups and Recreation because being around dogs truly fills my cup. It was never “just” a side job — it was something I genuinely looked forward to every week. Now that I’m settling into island life, I’m offering weekend walks and drop-in visits so your pup can get their steps (and sniffs!) in while you’re out enjoying your weekend plans. Whether your dog loves a brisk, energy-burning walk or a slower stroll with plenty of sniff breaks, I’m happy to match their vibe. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I understand that each one has their own quirks (which honestly makes them even better). I’m patient, attentive, and big on communication — you’ll always get updates and photos so you can feel totally at ease. If your pup needs weekend adventure walks, potty breaks, playtime, or just some extra love and attention, I’m your girl. I’ll treat them like my own — belly rubs included. Can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 🐶🌴 I work full-time Monday through Friday, which is why I dedicate my weekends to pet care! 🐾 I’m available for weekend walks and drop-in visits only, and I have full flexibility on Saturdays and Sundays to meet your needs. Whether you need an early morning walk, mid-day drop-in, evening potty break, or multiple visits in one day, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule. Because I intentionally keep my weekends open for pet care, your pup will have my full attention — no rushing between commitments. I love spending my weekends outside, so dog walks fit naturally into my routine here in Hawaiʻi. If you’re looking for reliable, communicative, and flexible weekend care, I’d love to help! I always start by making sure your pet feels comfortable with me. I take my cues from them and move at their pace — building trust first is always my priority. If your dog is treat-motivated, I’m happy to use positive reinforcement (with your permission) to help with things like getting their leash on or easing into our walk. If they’re more independent or prefer to warm up slowly, I respect that and give them the space they need. For pups who love being outdoors, we can spend time playing and getting energy out in the yard. If they’re more companion-oriented, I’m just as happy hanging out, offering attention, belly rubs, or calm company. Every visit is tailored to your dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level. My goal is for them to feel safe, understood, and happy — and for you to feel completely confident while they’re in my care.
About: I have had a dog as a pet in my life since I was born, and I volunteered at the local humane society for a summer after sophomore year of high school. I have been a dog sitter multiple times including twice for longer than 2 weeks. Over one of those two week periods the poor boy had a UTI so I had to make sure he was drinking water and taking his medications. Unfortunately I live somewhere that they do not allow pets but I am more than willing to stop in or stay at your place! I work 3 12 hour shifts and week meaning I have 4 days of free time to love your pet! It also means I have a flexible schedule on my days off! I care for your pets as though they are my own. We always use a leash for our family pets and ensure that they are safe at all times!
About: Aloha! Growing up in Chicago with a mom who breeds Australian Labradoodles, I’ve basically been surrounded by wagging tails and wet noses my entire life. I’ve been there from the first adorable yawn to the moment those pups head off to their forever homes (and yes, I always cry a little). Why should you pick me to watch your fur babies? Well, I’ve got a lifetime of experience with animals of all shapes and sizes. From the tiniest pups to bigger dogs, I’ve seen it all—and loved every second. Plus, I currently share my home with my own four-legged buddy, Kai, who can vouch for my top-notch belly rubs and treat-dispensing skills. Your pets will be in good, loving hands—maybe even a little spoiled! I work remotely at home so I’m able to spend a lot of time with your pet, giving them all the treats and cuddles they deserve! I have a dog of my own who is super friendly and loves making new friends to socialize with! They can play together in my home!
About: I’ve taken care of pets of all kinds for years and would love to be of service to someone who needs help on the weekends, early mornings, or evenings. I would be happy to sit and hang out with an elderly dog or take your active pup on a hike. When I’m not with your dog, I’m working at castle hospital, at the gym or doing photography. I work 8-4pm Monday to Friday so I’m open to early morning walks or evening check ins until 10pm. Open to flexible needs on the weekends and holiday coverage. I currently live with a husky so it would be best if I came to your home. Unfortunately, I am allergic to cats so I can’t be around them but dogs are okay!
About: I’ve had experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes and ages since I was a child. I currently have an energetic, playful 1yr old puppy of my own; who is a great play date if you want to tire your dog out! I’m in the process of training her right now, so I’m happy to help with any training in yours. Please let me know any special instructions, preferences, allergies, etc. I’m more than happy to accommodate! I have experience with administering medication, eye ointment, eye drops, nail trimming, ear cleanings, bathing and more. I currently work as a dental hygienist Mon-Thu so I have availability outside of that. I love to take my dog out on walks, hikes, beach and dog park so I’m happy to bring yours along or separately if you prefer. I treat others’ homes as if it were my own and with the utmost respect. I’ll happily follow your pup’s favorite routines and games. I have immediate access to a few very large grassy areas for play time but they are not fenced in. I have a small and Xl crate. Multiple leashes and harnesses.
“I was so fortunate to find Melissa on Rover. She has been caring for my dog Max for nearly 2 months, and has been terrific. Given her strong experience I feel very comfortable leaving Max in her care. She also sends the cutest Rover cards! Thanks, Melissa!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my comprehensive experience in pet care, including specialized skills such as training puppies and providing attentive care for senior pets. My background ensures that each pet receives tailored attention and care suited to their specific needs, whether it's energetic playtime for young pups or gentle, supportive care for older pets. Pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine by dedicating specific times for feeding, walking, training, and playing with the pets. I make sure to balance my schedule to provide consistent and reliable care, ensuring that each pet's needs are met regularly and they receive the attention they deserve. Caring for pets in my home involves creating a safe, comfortable environment where they can feel at ease. I ensure they have a designated space for sleeping, eating, and playing. I also follow a routine for feeding, walking, and engaging them in activities to keep them stimulated and happy. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make sure to follow their specific instructions and maintain the pet's usual routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care instructions. I also provide regular updates to the pet owners to keep them informed and reassured about their pet's well-being.
About: I have experience in training service animals. I also have a three year old Lab mix with pit bull named blue because he has one brown and one blue eye! I also have a mini poodle named coconut! Only coconut lives with me right now but I have raised/trained 3 other dogs in the past 5 years. Very comfortable with any kind of dog, big or small and will take care of your fur child like they are my own! I am currently a full-time student taking online classes so I am home a lot which means I have plenty of time to play and take care of animals. I am available every day! I have a very loving/friendly mini Poodle who loves other dogs but can be separated if needed. I have a fenced in yard and a crate if your dog needs it. Plenty of toys and treats to keep them happy as well! I am in general a big animal/ pet lover! If you choose me as your sitter it is guaranteed love and comfort for you’re fur babies!!!

“At this point we joke that when Giz goes to Greg's house. That it's his vacation from us. He doesn't even look back when we drop him off. Might offer to share custody soon. In all seriousness, Greg has afforded us the ability to take trips again and know that without a shadow of a doubt that Giz is taken care off. He sends us action shots of the dogs and always gives us updates. We literally can not ask for more. He's the best.”
“Our pup was so loved and well cared for with Jessica and her family. She got lots of exercise and outdoor time and lots of cuddles. So greatly appreciated! Will definitely use her again.”
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful! In fact, she's such a great sitter that I almost hesitate to write this review because selfishly, I'd love to keep her availability to myself! This was our very first time leaving our puppy with a sitter, and naturally we were a little nervous. Samantha immediately put our minds at ease. Before our trip, she took the time to meet with us and show us where our puppy would be staying in her home, which made us feel so much more comfortable and confident. While we were away for nearly two weeks, Samantha kept us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos. It meant so much to know our puppy was happy, safe, and well cared for while we were gone. What impressed us even more was that she actually helped reinforce our puppy's potty training during our time away. We came home to a puppy who had continued making progress, which was such a pleasant surprise! Samantha is truly a sweetheart, and it's obvious that she has a genuine love for animals and a heart for what she does. The care, attention, and affection she showed our puppy exceeded all of our expectations. We are so grateful we came across Samantha and couldn't recommend her more highly. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Krysta and Peter are wonderful people and were so easy to work with! They took the best care of our dog Luna. We will always go back to them for any of our future dog sitting needs in the Kailua area😄 They were so thoughtful, kept us updated with great photos, and reassured us that we had nothing to worry about, given it being our first time using the app. Highly recommend!”
“My dog had the best time with Lauren and her family. First I worried a little because my dog didn’t have much experience with small children but turned out to be just fine. I was so grateful that they took care of my dog so well. I could tell in her face(my dog) that she had a great time with them. Mahalo Lauren!”
“Yvette was truly great! The pups had a wonderful time with her and she gave daily updates. She was very accommodating to my last minute changing schedule. Was so happy to have been able to book her and love on the pups!”
“We were a little anxious in finding a sitter for our dog since it would be his first time away from home. After meeting Rebecca and her daughter for the first time at a meet and greet, we felt at ease since they were really nice and our dog seemed to like them. Prior to our dog's first stay with them, Rebecca would always be prompt to reply to our concerns and needs. Upon dropping him off for his stay, Rebecca and her family welcomed our dog with open arms. She sent us updates and lots of pictures and videos - we felt he was loved and knew he was well taken care of. Picking him up, he was happy to see me but I could tell he would miss his new friends. We will be using Rebecca again since we feel we are not dropping our dog off to a sitter, but to family. Thank you Rebecca and family!”
“Shauna has watched our huge goofy floof, Ruger, twice now and we’re so lucky to have found her! She takes great care of him and he loves her dog, Bella! Maybe too much 🤣 she’s easy to get a hold of, follows Rugers weird diet and eating routines, and plays his favorite game of fetch.”
“Kaliyah Sent me daily photos and updates. Her and her husband took my doggie on plenty of walks and made sure my doggie was eating properly which I appreciate. I would highly recommend them to watch my dog any time.”
“Rose was great! We boarded Luna with her for a week and we got daily updates including pictures and videos. Luna was treated like a family member and got daily walks and lots of snuggles. Rose was super responsive and helped us be at ease with her stay.”
“Fantastic sitter. Always responsive and sends update photos. Is very caring and was flexible when my travel planes when topsy-turvy. Already looking at next bookings so my baby can go back to hang out with the pack.”
“Makayla was absolutely wonderful with Huey! From the moment I booked, her communication was exactly what every pet parent hopes for when leaving their dog in someone else’s care. She sent regular updates and photos, asked thoughtful questions whenever she needed clarification, and was proactive about sharing any concerns related to his care. I booked on very short notice and still received top-tier service. It was clear that Makayla genuinely cared about Huey’s comfort, safety, and well-being. Knowing he was in such kind and capable hands gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I trust Makayla completely with my fur babies and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and compassionate pet sitter!”
“KaVina was ABSOLUTELY amazing with my l lil man (Deuce). She kept the pics & videos coming. You could see the joy in my dogs eyes in the pictures & videos, I feel like my guy was truly able to live like he was at home. She took him for walks & played tug of war with him & kept him happy. I would definitely use her services again because she made him feel at home.”
“Kea would love to stay with Katharine and David again. He was very well taken care of. He was able to go on an adventure. He liked having his walks and making new friends!”
“Jacquelyn has watched my pup twice now and we had great experiences! She's easy to communicate with and my dog goes to her with no hesitation which is a huge deal. I'm so glad to have finally found a trusted sitter for my dog!”
“I just have to give a HUGE shoutout to Charlene for being the absolute best dog sitter for my sweet Miss Ellie! From the moment we connected, I felt at ease knowing Ellie would be in great hands — and Charlene went above and beyond my expectations. She made sure Ellie ate well, was cared for with love and attention, and stayed happy and comfortable the entire time. I was so impressed by her kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. It’s not easy leaving your fur baby with someone, but Charlene made it such a smooth and worry-free experience. I highly recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy, loving sitter, and I will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Brianda has become the only Rover we use on Oahu, she has had our big Pit mix multiple times and I swear our dog is better behaved with her. The communication is always quick and straightforward and the care is great. Thanks Brianda!”
