“Danica is great, she took care of my Tamago like her own. Daily multiple updates and lots of snuggles for my kid. Couldn’t be happier to have left Tamago in her care.”
“I had to find a very last minute sitter for 9 nights for my pupper and Senne was so accommodating and welcoming. When I met her I felt like I didn’t have to worry. She was receptive of my instructions and sent me updates the entire week. I could tell she loved having my pup there. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Thank you Senne!”
“Coco had a wonderful time under Tracey's family care, enjoying the company of several other dog playmates. He was well fed and received excellent care, particularly considering his back issue. I also received daily updates throughout his stay. We will definitely book with them again for our next trip!”
“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!”

Throughout every stay, I’ll provide regular photo and video updates so you can relax and enjoy your vacation, date night, or time away with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is safe, loved, and well cared for.
“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.”

And, she gave her a bath the night before I picked her up so she was looking pretty and smelling great! I would not hesitate to use Jacque again!”
“We left Lucky with Emma for 2 weeks. Our first to be away from each other for that long. We missed her alot but Emma regularly updated us with videos and photos which we very much appreciated. Usually shy, we saw that she was having a great time and even made a best friend. We came back to a more outgoing and relaxed Lucky! Thanks auntie Emma!”

Daisy was incredibly responsive and kept us updated with lots of photos and videos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. You can really tell she’s calm, caring, and genuinely loves dogs. When we picked Lily up, she was happily tired out from all the playtime and fun she had. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking with Daisy again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your pup like family!”

I would definitely use her services again because she made him feel at home.”
“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!”
“Heidi had a wonderful stay with Charisse! We loved getting updates and pictures a couple times a day and Heidi loved getting lots of walks around Waikiki and hanging out with her new pal, Sophia. Charisse made us feel completely at ease with knowing she was in caring and knowledgeable hands and when Heidi needed extra medication, Charisse knew exactly what to do. We are so grateful for Charisse and the care she provided for Heidi. We look forward to having Heidi stay with her again in the future!!”
“I cannot say enough AMAZING things about Camille. She was the sweetest person ever. She took such great care of Ziggy. She sent multiple daily updates and pictures letting us know how our baby was doing. It was clear Ziggy was family his entire stay. 100% recommend. Thank you so much.”
“Spikey and Ozzie really enjoyed their stay with Charlene. They were able to play with the other dogs there. Charlene kept me updated with pictures of all the fun they were having. I highly recommend her as a dog sitter.”

“Ryan was quick to respond and clearly an animal lover! He always sent me pictures during his stay which was greatly appreciated. Would definitely book again!!”
“Lyndi was godsend! I was very nervous about leaving our kitties to a total stranger for the first time and Lyndi put my mind at easy pretty much right away. She somehow managed to bond with both our kitties (one being a total chickenshit) which was quite a surprise to me. I now believe that she doesn't just care about animals, she actually understands them. I also LOVED reading her drop-in cards accompanied by many photos! They made us smile and each morning a better one than the one before knowing that our kitties were happy and cared for.”
“Took great care of my kitty and fish while I was away for a week! I got lots of photos and updates, and had peace of mind during my trip that my baby was getting good care.”
“We’re so grateful for Janey! While on a ten-day trip, one of our kitties broke through a small screen window in our bathroom and went missing for 5 days. We had care scheduled for our kitties, but it became clear it would take more to bring our Stella kitty home. With still a week left in our trip, we were becoming very concerned Stella would not come home without a dedicated and persistent search effort, and that’s when we contacted Janey. Right from the start, Janey was empathetic about our situation and committed to helping. She went above and beyond our expectations, from bringing various types of fish to put out for our kitty to circulating our kitty’s photo on social media sites (with our permission), all while providing love and care to our other kitty, Oscar. Janey was easy to coordinate with and is a reliable communicator. Janey up finding our Stella kitty deep out into the yard behind our house when Oscar awoke her in the middle of the night. She saw eyes glowing in the yard, contacted us, and went out to investigate based on an intuition it was our Stella, which it was! She approached Stella carefully and brought her home safely. We highly recommend Janey for her great communication, dedication to help, and clear way with animals!!”

“Daisy took great care of our high maintenance pug and accepted all of our requests without batting an eye. She sent regular updates. Will definitely repeat.”
“I can not say enough great things about Luis and Christine!! They truly love animals and could not have provided a more welcoming and loving environment for my dog. Christine baked homemade,nutritional treats specific for my dog :) Luis and Christine not only took my pup on several walks throughout the day, but took her on adventures throughout the island! They really are not your average sitter, but so much more! I hope to book again as they really are amazing people.”

About: Hi, I’m Chloe! I’ve grown up surrounded by animals of all kinds, and caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have 2 cats and 1 dog, so I’m very familiar with different personalities, routines, and energy levels. One thing I specialize in is caring for dogs with separation anxiety. Since I’m home full-time and don’t work outside the house, I’m able to provide constant companionship and can stay with your pet all day if needed. I’ve cared for many dogs who become anxious when left alone, so I understand the patience, consistency, and reassurance they need to feel safe and comfortable. I’ve also cared for family and friends’ pets for years, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, medication when needed, and keeping them company. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs extra attention, I’ll treat them like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Since I’m not currently working, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets my full attention. I’m home a lot, so I’m able to keep a close eye on them, stick to their routines, and make sure they get lots of care, playtime, and company throughout the day I live in a townhouse with my dog Roxy and my three kittens. Roxy is a small Chihuahua, very energetic, friendly, and used to being around other animals. My cats are also very social and comfortable in a multi-pet home. It’s a calm, pet-friendly space where animals are part of everyday life. I also love staying active with walks, trips to the dog park, and going to the beach when the weather’s nice. Pets staying with me would get lots of attention, care, and companionship in a safe, relaxed environment (with lots of cuddles)
About: I’m a reliable and caring animal lover with experience both as a pet owner and working in hospitality, where attention to detail and excellent care for others are essential. Having my own pet has taught me how important it is to provide animals with patience, consistency, and lots of love. I understand how much pets mean to their families and always treat them like my own. My background in hospitality has strengthened my responsibility, communication, and ability to create a safe and comfortable environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, whether that means energetic walks, playtime, or calm companionship at home. My goal is to make sure every pet feels happy, safe, and well cared for while their owners have complete peace of mind. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I already maintain an active lifestyle with daily walks and a structured schedule, so incorporating dog walks, check-ins, and pet sitting throughout the day works seamlessly for me. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and caring for them is something I prioritize in my routine. Because I also come from a hospitality background, I’m very attentive, responsible, and used to providing high-quality care and service. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening visits, I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care as if they were my own. care for every pet the same way their owner would in their own home. My goal is to keep their routine, comfort, and environment as consistent as possible so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s feeding schedules, walk routines, playtime, medications, or simply giving them extra attention and affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect and responsibility I would my own. I focus on creating a calm, loving environment where your pet receives personalized care, exercise, and companionship. I also like to provide a premium experience for both pets and owners. That means attentive care, regular updates and photos, clean and organized spaces, and making sure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly treat every pet as if they were my own.
“My dog wasn't feeling well whenever he got the opportunity to stay with Kurry, but she made me feel like I was right there with him. I had a plethora of pictures, lots of updates, and a reassurance that Kurry truly loved and cared for my child. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for someone who values your animals as much as you do.”
About: I had dogs since I was very young. As a child, I wanted to grow up to become a vet, but I realized I'm allergic to cats, and some dogs. Even with allergies I'll still watch them because I love them and that's what allergy pills are for 😆. Care taking animals at home is one of my dream jobs, and I'm very lucky to be able to have a safe space for my furry friends to hang out at. I've been fostering with Paws of Hawaii for almost 3 years. I love being able to help provide a home to those in need, and it's so much fun seeing all the different personalities. I just love being surrounded by dogs. I like to train simple and fun tricks with them! My house basically became a doggy day care with fosters and dog sitting my friends furbabies! I'm currently working part time for music and acting so I have a lot of time. I spend most days hanging out with my dog, a foster, and sometimes my friends dog when I get asked to dogsit. I have a fenced yard, 1 dog of my own, and usually 1 foster or 2 fosters. We hang out multiple times a day out in the yard, to play and relax. They are allowed to roam around the house, I'm very attentive. I also have a crate for when I need to leave the house. All dogs are crate trained, and fed in the crate at my house. I change out the water frequently and give them filtered water.
“Selena was a great daycare host for my dog. Mr Pickles came home happy and relaxed and I will definitely book again. Selena was easy to communicate with, is knowledgeable about dogs and is a great sitter.”
“My dog, Shizuka, suffers from separation anxiety, which prevents me from leaving her alone for more than 10 to 15 minutes. So, when my wife and I had an event to attend, I found Camryn on Rover. I was still concerned that Shizuka might act out when left with a stranger, but she was great with Camryn. When I picked her up, Shizuka was very calm and appeared to be happy staying with her new friend.”
“Saige had a great time with Courtney! We were given updates throughout the day from Courtney which was really nice and you can tell she’s a big dog person. Would 100% recommend.”
“Scott and his family were wonderful caretakers of my puppy Kapili. I was able to relax and focus on my work because I knew he was in such good hands. Scott, his wife, daughters and mother-in-law are openhearted and trustworthy people. I was able to communicate freely about the needs of my Fur Baby and Scott was understanding and accommodating. I will definitely continue to use them.”
“Naudia and Ayerim are great. My standard poodle is happily content after a day with them. He looks forward to each day he gets to spend time with them and Acey.”
About: I take care of dogs just like they are my own children. I always keep an eye on them to make sure they feel safe and loved. If I take them for a walk I make sure I clean them before they come back to the house. I allow them to sleep in my room on the floor. If the pet’s owner asks me to follow certain directions I will follow 100%. I like to take them for walks about 3 x a day. Dogs need exercise too. When my students come I make sure the dog is entertained by the children. Kids love dogs and dogs feel extra loved by my students. I like to take the dogs in the backyard to play. I make sure the owners want to bring their dogs back again. I’m semi retired and I have plenty of time to care for your pups. I’m available from Monday through Friday . I will make some exceptions for weekends . They are welcome to walk around the house but I will probably just keep them in the living room. At night I will make sure they feel safe and sleep next to me but not on my bed.
“Cruzer only stayed with Kelly for about 4 hours so it is hard to review her. This is my first experience with someone watching over him. Maybe I need to experience others to get a better idea what I want in a sitter.”

About: I have two years of experience taking care of small and large dogs. I provide patient and attentive care to each dog’s individual needs. I am also an experienced dog owner having owned two Labrador retrievers. I am currently available for drop ins and dog walking visits Monday - Friday.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 15 years old. Back in Argentina, where I’m originally from, I rescued stray animals, provided them with their first care, and helped them find loving forever homes. That experience taught me patience, compassion, and how to make animals feel safe and loved. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or overnight care, my goal is to make sure your dog or cat feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’ll always provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring hands. I’m currently working part time from home so I have plenty of free time to enjoy the outdoors and take care of your pup while you can’t! . There’s plenty of room at my house to play and there is a lot of beautiful places arround the neighborhood to go for a walk

“ICassie and Merit did an awesome job with my blue heeler service dog that has some anxiety. She responded positively to both of them in my room and even went up to Merit in my room where she is very protective. They learned the command and routine to work with her and she looked for them when they were coming. Great communication both bt phone and text so we were on the same page. I had a very quick space to fill and they went above and beyond in their work with Kaliko. I highly recommend them and will use them again without hesitation Mahalo for outstanding work”
About: I have 2 years of experience working at a dog daycare - which provided care for elderly dogs, as well as big and small dogs. I am packpro training certified, which means I have training on subjects such as dog body language, dog handling, emergency situations and CPR. I also have my own pets - two cats and a Shiba Inu. They are my family, and I'd love to treat your pet like family too! I have had various pets since I was a kid! Rabbits, guinea pigs, cats, dogs - I have even taken care of horses. Animals are my passion! Aside from my dog daycare experience, I have personally pet sit and have done dog walking for my own customers too.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have two cats of my own, so caring for animals is second nature to me (for reference: my chore starting at age 5 was to feed the dogs 😁🐶). I’ve worked with breeds ranging from pit bulls to chihuahuas, and I’m especially comfortable with pets that need a little extra patience—whether that’s a high-energy dog or a “difficult” cat. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile. I’m comfortable administering medication to both cats and dogs, brushing teeth, and clipping nails. I’m also a runner and love taking active dogs on short to mid-length runs or long walks if that’s something they enjoy. Whether your pet needs exercise, enrichment, or calm, reliable companionship, I tailor my care to meet their unique needs and routine. I’m currently a law student, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Monday through Friday, I have one morning class and one afternoon class, but I’m available to check on your pets during lunch, as well as in the mornings and evenings. My weekends are completely open, and as long as you don’t mind me doing a bit of studying at times, I can spend the majority of the day with your furry family—making sure they get plenty of attention, care, and companionship. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I follow care instructions closely and take time to understand each pet’s personality, triggers, and preferences. In a client’s home, I respect the space and strive to keep everything as familiar and stress-free as possible for your pet. I’m attentive to things like secure doors and gates, leash safety on walks, and monitoring food, medications, and behavior changes. I never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations and always prioritize calm, positive interactions. I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.
“Malia was professional, punctual and communicative throughout the process. Highly recommend her! We’ll certainly be using her services again! Thank you Malia for caring for our dog, Rio.”
“Lyndi was so awesome and my dogs loved her! She was very responsive and very willing to help me with whatever I asked her to do. I would highly recommend Lyndi, and will definitely be calling on her again in the future!”
“Kristie is amazing! She is so sweet and gentle with Arlo, and he absolutely loves her. She always takes her time on their walks and makes sure he feels good, safe, and happy. I can tell she gives him all the love and attention he needs. She is truly one of the best. Highly recommended! 🌟🐶💛”
About: Hello, My husband works as a scientist and I work for the department of education as an athletic trainer. We have a 2 and 5 year old that love animals. I am comfortable giving injections or pills if need be. We like to stay as active as possible and go on hikes, beach, walks as much as we can. The area we live is safe and quite place. There is a duck pond right next store and a park right across the street. My husband and I have been pet lovers since we were kids. He was raised with cats, birds and dog. While I was raised with dogs. We recently lost our English Bulldog of twelve years and even though we would like to get another dog in the future we would be happy watching your pets in the mean time. We do have little kids. They are 2 and 4 years old. We would prefer to watching dogs that are use to little kids. I don't work till the afternoon so morning walks are a must. My goal is to tire them out in the beginning on the day. Your pets are like our family. They are allowed on couches and beds. They will be loved like I love my kids. thank you very much

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was a teen. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing my own dog grow from a puppy to senior. I have experience with adapting to each dog’s individual needs and with caring for senior pets. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with dog-sitting and walking. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and learning how to keep them engaged and happy! I’m currently working part time, so I am available on weekends and some weekdays for dog sitting. Weekday afternoons are usually best, and my weekends are typically open. I take the time to get to know each dog at their pace. It’s a top priority for your pet to feel safe and comfortable!
“Cannot recommend Lydia enough. 5/5. My first time using the app and I couldn’t have come across a better representative of the spirit of Rovers intention. Lydia truly went above and beyond, was flexible, understanding, and accommodating— not just to me, but to the animals and curve balls they gleefully provide.”

“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Spikey and Ozzie really enjoyed their stay with Charlene. They were able to play with the other dogs there. Charlene kept me updated with pictures of all the fun they were having. I highly recommend her as a dog sitter.”
“Abigail and her family took wonderful care of our dog, Yuzu, while we were away for two weeks. Daily photos including trips to the beach and the park put our minds at ease, and we would definitely have Yuzu stay with her family again in the future!”
“Dianna is the best! She takes the best care of our pup ili. We feel so safe and reassured knowing our pet is in the best hands with Dianna and her family. It’s make taking vacations so easy and care free for us. Dianna is must book for any of dog sitting needs!”
“It's not easy to leave your pet with a stranger, but after meeting Naudia and Acey I felt at ease. There was a huge storm during my dog's stay, but Naudia found ways to keep him occupied indoors and I got frequent photos and updates. Naudia has an easy way with dogs, especially active, curious and attention-seeking ones like mine. I'd be very happy to leave my dog in her care again.”
“Alexandra is an INCREDIBLE pet sitter. She really goes above in beyond with communication and accommodations. My little kitty LOVED her and she made him feel like a part of the family. Alexandra took amazing care of my cat, communicated about everything, and was super chill. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“Bri and family are so sweet and caring! They take such good care of our Gordo pup. Love that she usually has other dogs in her care because it allows our pup to get more socialization. Always great at communicating and sending daily updates! Highly highly recommend Bri!”
“This was our first time leaving our 2 dogs with someone in Hawaii and Trinity did an amazing job with our dogs. I was a bit nervous at first, but after the initial meet with their dogs, I knew they’d get alot of play time. They had so much fun doing so many activities like the beach and dog park, which I really appreciated. It’s always nice knowing your dogs are well taken care of when you’re out on vacation. We received tons of pictures which was great!”
“A great sitter! Very willing to accommodate and I had zero worries about my dog while we were away. She gave consistent updates as well, which I really appreciated. For a timid dog, he adjusted to boarding with her better than I expected. I’d certainly look for her name again for my next booking. :)”
“Ben took great care of my dog while I was away on the mainland!! He’s a great communicator, giving me updates daily and always responding to texts quickly. Would definitely leave my pup with him again!”
About: I live on base, so base access required. Or I can pick up and drop off up with small fee. My meeting place for those who don't have base access is Holy Family Catholic Church 830 Main St Honolulu. A cancellation fee is applied if cancellation is within 72hrs. I have raised and cared for many pets. I have walked, and given pets needed exercise, and have always made sure they have fresh water to stay healthy and hydrated. I have a lot of experience with caring for pets and given them needed medication as well. Also I can accept longer boardings or boardings needed on short notice. Currently a stay at home mom to school kids so I have quality time to devote to pet care. I wake up at 6am daily and walk 1 mile for my health and your pet is welcome to accompany me. I provide care in my home only. I provide walks when possible. I do conduct meet and greets to ensure proper fit and I have a fenced yard for safety.
“Angie and family cared for Chewy beyond my expectations. The warmth they demonstrated made Chewy feel at ease, got this fussy guy to eat, and even bond with the male family members. This allowed me to enjoy my trip, receiving status updates and pics along the way. I'm very appreciative of their collective efforts, excellent communication, and allowing Chewy to feel at home with them. I highly recommend them for your fur baby.”
“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."”
“Chole is so amazing my dog came back he was so happy I always receive updates and photos of my dog when he was in her care. She also bathe my dog he have sensitive skin and he loves the rolling grass and that makes him breakout. Thank you do much for taking care of my dog.”
“Paige is a great host, very friendly and responsive. My dogs had a great time with Lucky, and although I thought my dogs would be a bit much to have in an apartment for over a week it all seemed to go quite well:)”
“Sherrie was able to accommodate me last minute and she offered a comfortable place for my cat. She sent me daily updates and I was kept at ease knowing my cat was doing well.”
“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!”
