“Coco was well cared for with Jacque! She even learned a way to get her to eat her food while there! Which can be a challenge! She came home bathed and even her bed was washed!! Thank you Jacque for taking good care of our girl! We appreciate you!”
“Senne did a great job! She gave me lots of updates throughout my trip and made sure my dog was taking her medication properly. She took her on walks and gave her lots of attention so she wouldn’t have bad separation anxiety. I appreciate all the love she gave her and giving me piece of mind with her thorough communication.”
“James was absolutely awesome! This was our first time using Rover and what a great experience with James. From our first meet with him and our dog, James was kind and gracious. Our dog I almost didn't want to come back with us! Thank you James for everything and hope to see you again!”
“Amazing people! We loved how attentive Miki has been to Tucker. Especially during the new year fireworks! Loved the walks and play time he got to enjoy with the family while we were on travel.”
“Thank you Eugene and family. They cared for my very energetic Golden retriever, Maisie. I was able to enjoy my family vacation without worrying about her needs and so much more, being met. They sent photos, exercised her, and gave her lots of love, and included her in their family time. This family loves dogs and it shows. They went above and beyond for Maisie! ?”
“Dale and Lauren were great. We got daily pictures and updates on our dog, Milo. They maintained great communication throughout his stay. We will definitely use Dale and Lauren again.”
“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.”
“They are so attentive to the dogs needs. This was our first time leaving our younger dog and we were worried she wouldn’t do well. She respected the dogs boundaries, followed their queues and they quickly became family to them. Received so many pictures and videos to put our minds at ease. Could not recommend them anymore!!”
“My little dog Kai spent 2 weeks with Sheriann and Curt and was well taken care of. 2 to 3 photos a day was sent to me assuring me she was in good hands and loved. I would highly recommend them for your pet.”
“We could not be more pleased by how well our dog was cared for this past week! We were sent updates with photos daily and could see that our dog was relaxed and happy. Both Sis and her husband clearly love animals and we're happy to have found a wonderful dog sitter nearby! Thank you!”
“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!”
“Rebecca was a wonderful, caring sitter for our sweet old gal, Peanur, while we were off island. We got daily updates and photos and could see how happy she was. Rebecca is responsive and kind and made us comfortable and at ease from drop off to pick up.”
“This being our first time leaving our 2 young dogs at a first time sitter we were nervous, but after being invited to tour Tracey's home and talking with her family we felt her home was full of love for all pets that came over toys, bedding nice outdoor run area and very clean. Every day of our trip away we were sent pics of our boys interacting and looking very happy at camp, we will definitely use Tracey's home for future boarding.”
“Our fur baby had an adventurous stay with McKenley with her pug cause they went on a hike and walks not all sitters do that. We are greatful that we chose her to watch after our fur baby. Thank you!”
“Carley is amazing! From the beginning, she communicated quickly and was extremely accommodating. Our Benny looked very content, calm, and welcomed. Carlee updated us with pictures throughout his 2 night stay. Will definitely call upon Carlee again!”
“Dorothy enjoyed her stay with Yvette. Also really grateful for the tips, pictures and for the last minute accommodation. Looking forward to another stay hopefully soon.”

“Debi was absolutely wonderful with my 16-year-old cat, Macy! It can be stressful leaving a senior pet, but Debi provided such great care and peace of mind that I’ve already booked her for another stay. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.”
About: I grew up with cats and loved my own more than I can say… especially because he was a bit of a jerk 😹! I understand all the eccentricities because mine only liked brita water, would lick the top of the dry food to make sure he got the freshest batch, and would stare at me while I was sleeping to watch for the slightest stir ⏰ Ever aince I lost my baby, I have sat for friend’s cats to get my cat time! I have experience with a plethora of normal and special needs, including litter cleaning (even if they miss), asthma, blindness, deafness, kidney disorders, elderly, feeding, and more. I love all cats and I am patient and independent so I completely understand all personalities!
“Eugene and his family took very good care of my cat while I was away. My cat enjoyed lots of play time and have communion in Japanese ,and seemed she was very happy when I arrived home. Thank you very much. ありがとうございました。また宜しくお願いします。”
“Aida was wonderful! She went above and beyond caring for our two house cats, ensuring they were well fed and watered and changing their litter regularly. She was quick to adapt and communicated with us effectively while we were away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“I can't say enough how wonderful it's been to have Stacey looking after my fur babies. She is so patient with both my boys, especially my super shy little guy. Both clearly remembered her and Aero warmed up immediately. And by the end of our short trip, even shy Beau got comfortable enough to emerge from under the bed and peek out into the living room while Stacey was there. I'm so thankful to have found someone to give my boys loving attention whenever I have to be away from them. Peace of mind? Priceless!”
“Wendy was amazing. She was available on short notice and took excellent care of my three small dogs. I knew they were in good hands and she sent photos of them every day for me. They required some eye drops and heart medicine which she kept up with. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her. She was able to win over my suspicious little Chihuahua who doesn't trust anyone and she was smiling by the end of the pet-sitting visits. Do your best friend a favor and hire her!”

“Cathy did an amazing job taking care of my dog coco while we were going on our trip. I would definitely recommend cathy to take care of your pet while you are away and would definitely have cathy take care of my dog again if we ever have to leave on a trip again. Thank you!”
About: I have my own doggy she’s 7 years old, I have experience with dogs with ear infections from my past dog. I love animals and hope to give the best service. I am currently working part time at queens hospital and in nursing school, looking to save up to pay for my tuition! I took a break from walking dogs but I’m back on the app to make some extra cash. My schedules very flexible and I’m looking to be booked with owners that need routine and I’m trustworthy to show up every week as needed! I have a large backyard and a very friendly dog who loves to interact with other dogs as well. There’s also a park near my home where I can take them.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind for over 6 years! They bring me ultimate joy, so why not make it a full-time job? I currently do not work, rover is the only job I do full-time, so I am almost always available to dog sit. I love dogs, and would love to make yours apart of my weekly routine. I have a community dog park in my neighborhood that your dogs will love. I would take the pups out on walks (if it’s not too hot), or just snuggle them all day if that’s what they wanted. I would show them ultimate love and attention while they are in my care!
About: Growing up on a farm, I was responsible for taking care of many animals. We will take very good care of your fur baby and make sure they get lots of love while you are away! I am a stay at home, homeschooling mom, so will be with your pet all day. My 11 year old son loves animals! He is a great helper and provides lots of cuddles to your fur baby. We live in an apartment building so every walk and potty break is supervised and on a leash, there is also a gated dog zone at our building that your pup can have some time off the leash (but still supervised). We also enjoy taking trips to the local dog park. We have an 8 year old Chihuahua that has to go out about 4 or 5 times a day, so potty breaks are already built into our day.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 10. I’ve had pet dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, birds, chickens, deer, turtles, and fish. I grew up with a family that loves animals and that love for animals has been instilled in me from a very young age. I understand needs of senior dogs and know how to give oral medication, as well as subcutaneous fluids if needed. I can give dog baths and brush teeth if requested as long as the dog is receptive. I understand separation anxiety very well and will assure you that your fur baby will get lots of love and attention. Your fur baby will never be left alone. I am also very understanding of pets that do not get along with other pets and or small children or if they have any other fears/anxiety. I am very flexible and will personalize my care to the needs of your pets. As a pet owner who also occasionally needed sitters I understand what other pet owners are looking for. I will make sure your fur baby is loved and well taken care of. I will also send lots of updates as I understand we all love photos of our fur babies and I know it provides comfort and peace of mind to the owners. I work in the travel industry so when I am home and not working I am home full-time 24/7. If my calendar shows I am available that means I will be home full-time. Your fur baby will never be left alone under my care. I live in a house with a large fenced yard. I also live close to multiple parks. I can provide lots of exercise for active dogs and/or keep it short and sweet for those that prefer to cuddle and stay home. Lots of paved walk ways under shaded trees if your dog is allergic to grass and/or does not want to go to the beach.
“Haley took outstanding care of our 8-year old cat while we were on vacation for 10 days. She provided us daily updates, connected well with our cat and at one point during our trip promptly informed us of a potential health concern. We always felt like we knew what was going on with our cat while away which gave us peace of mind. We will certainly use Haley's services for our future vacations!”

“James is the BEST! He took such great care of our baby, Maya. He made sure to make her feel comfortable and safe. We are so lucky to have him to take care of Maya!! Highly recommend James!!”
About: I worked as a veterinary assistant for 6 years, pet owner of cats, dogs and birds all my life. I am kind, respectful, responsible and friendly to all. I love getting to know any animal and see their different characteristics and personalities! Currently I’m focusing on my art and caring for family, so my schedule is very flexible. I am able to change my schedule according to what is needed. It is easier for me to care for pets in their own home as I have multiple pets in the household. I will try to maintain your pets normal routine.
About: Lifelong dog lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes, including large breeds. I recently lost a beloved family dog in Japan, which deepened my appreciation for the importance of compassionate, attentive care for animals. Although I do not currently have a pet of my own, I stay closely connected to animals through volunteering at the humane society, where I help care for and socialize dogs of different temperaments and needs. I am active, reliable, and very attentive to each animal’s individual personality and routine. I enjoy providing safe, loving care, regular exercise, and meaningful companionship tailored to each dog’s needs—whether that means calm indoor time, structured walks, or active outdoor time for more energetic dogs. I work mostly remotely, so I’m home the majority of the day and can provide consistent care and attention. I do have occasional appointments, but I plan my schedule to ensure pets are always checked on and cared for regularly. I’m also very active and enjoy hiking and outdoor time, so I’m happy to include pets who enjoy walks, exercise, and being out and about. I provide attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s needs and routine. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care or medications. In the home, I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and not alone for long periods, giving them consistent companionship and supervision. I keep the environment clean, calm, and stress-free, and I’m very respectful of the client’s home, treating it with care as if it were my own.
About: Aloha! Official animal lover here, who’s had and taken care of various types of pets from Tarantulas, Turtles, Hamsters, Gerbils, Chameleons, parakeets, frogs, to rabbits, fish, cats and dogs! I would love to watch your furbaby and take great care of her/him! I’m experienced with caring for dogs of all stages, big or small. I like to exercise, so your dog will get plenty of exercise (walk or run) with me:) I also speak Japanese and Spanish! I do not work, but do travel often to mainland as I have elderly parents. So when I’m on island I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies. My husband works from home, and we recently bought a spacious single-family home with a yard and large lanai, so your dogs can enjoy hanging out inside or outside.
“Sis was wonderful with our dog! Our pup is only nine months old so I was a bit worried about leaving her, but Sis made her feel right at home. She loved going over there every morning for doggy sitting. I would definitely use her again.”
About: I grew up in the foothills of San Diego where I was raised with all kinds of animals! Cats, dogs, chickens, you name it! Animals aren’t just pets to me—they are members of the family and should be treated as such. I am a student on campus one day a week, and the other days are spent doing remote field work. Because of this I have a lot of flexibility for potty breaks and giving care to your furry loved ones. Although this is a New York City apartment, it is quite large withs a lot of open space during the colder months when long walks become a little shorter. There is a lot of room for playing fetch and such. I live on the first floor of a building which makes trips outside very easy and convenient, which is good for dogs of all ages. Additionally, there are three doors between the apartment and the street, which is helpful for the escape artist-type!
“Lilian did an excellent job watching Lucy. I would highly recommend her to anyone ?. I look forward to contacting you in the future and will recommend you also. Aloha”
“Eugene and his wife took such great care of our puppy!! She is not the easiest dog, but they were so patient with her and very communicative. They sent tons of pictures throughout her stay and kept me updated. Eugene’s wife even made Nalu’s meal extra yummy with chicken and broth. Nalu can’t wait for her next stay!”
“Danielle and her beautiful family took the best care ever of my sweet Daphne! Not only did Danielle provide a loving home to Daphne for the day, but she also helped me with my separation anxiety from my puppy (who has rarely been away from home since she was born) by Danielle and her son’s kind and confident manner interacting with Daphne. I had taken Daphne to a doggy daycare facility last month, but it was too big and impersonal for me, if not for Daphne, who was intimidated by all the dogs and their barking. With Danielle and her family, Daphne got far more personalized attention than at doggy day care, and both Daphne and I felt much more comfortable. Having found Danielle, Daphne and I have found ourselves the perfect dog sitting situation. Five out of five stars!”
“Chloe had a great time with Noee and Cake! I loved the videos and photo updates. Chloe was excited to come over and sad to leave :) Also, appreciate that Noee was so flexible with not only my late notice request, but also my early/late hours. Thanks again!”
“Our dog had a great time with Lauren! She was super attentive and sent pics and a video during the stay. She was caring for a few other dogs at the time and our dog loved playing with them and got lots of attention! Will definitely rebook!!”
“Had a great experience with Olivia, she communicated promptly and kept me informed on how the day went. We had a short stay but she sent a picture and Korra seemed to enjoy her time. Thanks, we’ll be coming back again!”

About: I’ve had dogs, koi, and parakeets in my life since I was 5. I currently own two dogs and dog training has become a crucial part of my life. I believe quality of life is extremely important for our pets. Our pets are members of our families and they deserve the utmost care and attention. I’ve bathed and groomed dogs for friends and family, as well as helped with obedience training. I don’t take being a dog mom lightly. From meal preparation, daily training (both obedience and sport) to regular potty breaks and walks, I only provide the best for our furry family members. I have a detached studio with air conditioning that can accommodate kenneled pets, or can be converted into a kennel free play room for pets that do not require kenneling. There is a spacious, fenced in back yard with plenty of grass for dogs to play in. We can also offer general obedience training at an additional rate depending on the training required.
“Rebekah and Nova are the best! My little dog LOVES to spend the day with them - he always looks so content when I pick him up. She’s so considerate and very flexible. I highly recommend her as a sitter!”
About: I am currently an online study-from-home student from Hawaii. I have owned a dog back home throughout my childhood and now have my own dog. I love having dogs around and am very attentive to their needs and can tend to their playfulness. I know how to train a dog and maintain proper manners and dog behavior, as well as how to deal with different personalities in dogs and proper public etiquette. I have walked and sitted dogs frequently in the past for neighbors, friends, and family so I have some good background experience with all types of dogs and how to properly and responsibly care for them. I have always received good feedback for house-sitting as well, usually for my cleanliness and organization. You can be sure your home is safe and kept clean while you're out.
“We are so thankful for Aaron and Ellie. They took great care of Aina and made her feel comfortable even though she was nervous at first. She settled in quickly and had a great time. I could tell she was happy and relaxed. Highly recommend them and will definitely book again❤️”

“Miki and her husband were absolutely fantastic! They went above and beyond all of my expectations while caring for my 4-year-old Labrador, Mana. They kept him active and happy by taking him on hikes, to the beach, and to parks, and it was clear he was treated like part of their family. They sent me photos and updates every day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I was able to truly relax during my trip knowing Mana was in such loving and capable hands. I couldn’t be happier with the care they provided. Mana came home happy, healthy, and pooped which is great for our super active dog. I highly recommend Miki and her husband to anyone looking for exceptional pet sitters, and I will definitely be booking with them again. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of my fur baby!”
About: I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I am a lover of all animals, and since I don't currently have any pets of my own, I would love to spend time caring for yours!

Please feel free to leave detailed care instructions & house rules and I will be sure to follow them.

About: I’m great with all kinds of pets and genuinely love caring for animals. Your pet will be in the best hands while you’re away, whether you need dog sitting, pet sitting, house sitting, or just someone to stop by and check on your home and pets. I’m reliable, responsible, and very trustworthy, and I’ll make sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to give owners peace of mind while they’re away. Whether it’s overnight care, daily visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or home check-ins, you can count on me to provide dependable and attentive care. I am a nanny here and there for kids whenever the families need me so I have a lot of free time! I have nannied kids and animals when parents go out of town and they are all taken care of! I have one dog at home who is very old but I love her! I make sure she has food and water at all times! We have a doggy door so that is very helpful but she is old so sometimes I have to let her outside & in! When I am dog sitting I always take the dogs on walks throughout the day to use the bathroom if they don’t outside, I always spend at least 20 minutes throughout the day to play with the animal and make sure they are comfortable and loved on! Usually when I sleepover at people’s houses I let the animal sleep with me if it’s okay with the homeowners!
About: I’ve volunteered / worked at animal shelters for years, I volunteered at an animal clinic as a vet tech, and i’ve raised many different kinds of animals! I’m currently working part time making my own hours, so I have plenty of time and love to give your pet! I can give as much time as needed! I will care for your pet like my own, I love animals with my whole heart and I’m great at following instructions to a tee!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind for over 6 years! They bring me ultimate joy, so why not make it a full-time job? I currently do not work, rover is the only job I do full-time, so I am almost always available to dog sit. I love dogs, and would love to make yours apart of my weekly routine. I have a community dog park in my neighborhood that your dogs will love. I would take the pups out on walks (if it’s not too hot), or just snuggle them all day if that’s what they wanted. I would show them ultimate love and attention while they are in my care!
About: I have owned and taken care of all kinds of pets growing up! During school I take care of my roommates dogs and cats and any other pets I am familiar with! I've taken care of dogs with special raw food diets and am pretty good with making sure each pet gets their daily play time and bathroom breaks :) I was a dog sitter for a family friend for their new puppy and helped with basic training and tricks (sit, lay down, stay, etc) and continue to dog sit for them occasionally :)) I am home for the summer from college and don't have a very big work schedule, I don't own any pets here but in Oregon I have one cat named Cipher who I care for daily and have been since adopting him over a year ago :) Making sure the animal is happy while owners are away is my number one priority, cleaning after them, feeding, play time, bathroom time, and taking for walks is everything I love to do for any animal depending on their needs! I will do baths as well to make sure the animal is nice and clean if requested while I take care of them :)
“We LOVE Cathy! She is so dependable, kind, caring, and really goes the extra mile to make sure your pup is loved and taken care of. We feel so fortunate to have found her and would highly recommend her for your dog!”
About: Two animal lovers here (husband and wife) with a collective 50 years worth of loving and/or training dogs. I’ve always had small dogs, and I’m known to shower them with lots of love. My husband does as well, though his specialty is training. He had two Golden Retrievers that were certified as therapy dogs who were loved, well groomed and naturally well behaved and loved. We are homebodies and love spending time with pets. Entertaining them and keeping them engaged, because a stimulated pup is a happy pup in our home. We do both work during the weekdays, though I work from home as my schedule permits. We will gladly accommodate the feeding walking schedule unique for your dog, please just let us know in your request what it is that you will need. Our little guy recently passed (aggressive cancer stinks); we are so grateful for the opportunity to love and care for yours. I work full time however remain free on the weekends. Able to walk doggos in the AM, lunch time and in the evening. We also stay at home once the work day is done with ample time for play, walks and/or dog park runs. Mostly at home on the weekends with exception of grocery shopping or dinner time Treat pets like one of the family while also maintaining structure. A doggo with predictable routine is a happy dog! Never left outside alone. Open to yours’ needs. If anything special please let me know and we can talk it out to make sure we’re the right fit!
About: Growing up, my family had three lovable yellow labs that filled our home with joy! When I moved to NYC, I wanted a pup so badly but felt I wasn’t ready to be a pet owner yet due to my travel schedule. So, I signed up for Rover and got to overnight pet sit as well as assist clients with regular dog walks. Now living on Oahu, I am ready to start up again! I work full time remotely with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to offer midday and afternoon pet care. While mornings can be a bit meeting-heavy, I’m typically available from 1 PM to 8 PM for walks, drop-ins, feedings, and plenty of quality time with your pet. Pet safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I follow their care instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and make sure their pet feels calm and secure in their familiar environment. I also double-check gates, doors, and leash fittings to ensure safety during walks. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, quiet space and only take pets I'm confident I can care for safely and responsibly. I treat every animal like they’re part of the family—with lots of love, patience, and attention.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a teenager. Constantly looking after neighbors dogs that needed special medications, taking care of blind dogs, and even helping out a friend raising a service dog for canine companions for independence. I would love to help you give the love and attention your dog deserves! I have my own king of the household who I have raised since he was 5 weeks old so I’m a pro when it comes to puppies all the way up to senior pups that I have taken care of previously. My schedule currently at work is Mon-Thurs 8-6 in an office and off Friday- Sunday so if you just need a weekend getaway island hop I’m the perfect person for the job. I also take my dog on an hour walk daily and we would love for your fur baby to join us whether it be due to a busy schedule or life circumstances (I’m a physical therapist so I know all about those). Kona and I are looking forward to meeting you and your pup for a stay, walk, or all day play soon. I’m currently a full time physical therapist that works 8-6 Monday- Thursday. If you live in Hawaii Kai I am able to easily come home for my lunch hour to play with your pup. Friday- Sunday I am off and can play with your pup all day. Usually I go on a hike once a week so if you tell me your fur baby loves to hike I’d be more than happy to take them along! I have a fenced yard as part of my Ohana suite where your fur baby will be able to hang out during the day or come inside with the door open. They will basically get to choose their day with me as I am both a beach lover and a hiker so if they love the kuliouou beach park i can take them there or if hiking makapuu or Koko head is more their speed I can accommodate that as well. I am also down for a Netflix binge and cuddle sesh on the couch if your dog just needs love and attention.
About: I've had a dog since the day I've entered this world. A dog has always been a part of our family. Our family dog, friends, neighbor's dogs, they were always around and I am always the first to volunteer to pet sit them at any opportunity. I currently work from home and have a flexible work schedule. My days off change from week to week, but my work hours at 7am-5pmHST. I currently do not have a pet in my home, I live in a studio alone and 2 blocks from a dog park in a very dog friendly neighborhood, and pet friendly building.
About: I’ve taken care of my dog for the past 8 years along with my family and friends who have trusted me to watch and take care of their dogs and cats! I currently play women’s basketball as well as do online school but for the majority of the day, I am looking for ways to spend it. I would love to be able to use that time to help you with your pets! I am able to play and watch over your pets for as long as you need without having an issue! I am also able to make sure your pets get their daily exercise as well as follow any specific medication instructions or food specifics.

“Amazing people! We loved how attentive Miki has been to Tucker. Especially during the new year fireworks! Loved the walks and play time he got to enjoy with the family while we were on travel.”
“Thank you Eugene and family. They cared for my very energetic Golden retriever, Maisie. I was able to enjoy my family vacation without worrying about her needs and so much more, being met. They sent photos, exercised her, and gave her lots of love, and included her in their family time. This family loves dogs and it shows. They went above and beyond for Maisie! ?”
“Dale and Lauren were great. We got daily pictures and updates on our dog, Milo. They maintained great communication throughout his stay. We will definitely use Dale and Lauren again.”
“They are so attentive to the dogs needs. This was our first time leaving our younger dog and we were worried she wouldn’t do well. She respected the dogs boundaries, followed their queues and they quickly became family to them. Received so many pictures and videos to put our minds at ease. Could not recommend them anymore!!”
“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!”
“Rebecca was a wonderful, caring sitter for our sweet old gal, Peanur, while we were off island. We got daily updates and photos and could see how happy she was. Rebecca is responsive and kind and made us comfortable and at ease from drop off to pick up.”
“Dorothy enjoyed her stay with Yvette. Also really grateful for the tips, pictures and for the last minute accommodation. Looking forward to another stay hopefully soon.”
“My lab had so much fun at her house and came home happy and tired after the weekend. Samantha kept me updated with photos and even took the extra care to reach out to me about my dog's allergies. Drop off/pick up was easy as well. I would 100% recommend her!”
“Tara provided excellent care and attention to our boy Kanalu! Her and Charlie kept Kanalu busy and worked with him on Drop It! We appreciated her updates and pictures throughout the weekend! Tara is awesome and recommend her for your furry baby!! :)”
“Always wonderful to have Naudia take care of my fur baby Gari. Super reliable, great communication, daily pictures, and overall just plain awesome. We now always look for Naudia’s availability the minute we know we’re taking a trip and have had her watch Gari multiple times for us. Gari always looks forward to the staycation. :)”
“Daylin did an amazing job taking care of my dog. I received regular updates, including videos and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. From the pictures, I could tell my dog was calm and happy, so I know Daylin took excellent care of him. Communication was also very efficient throughout the entire stay. Thank you so much! I highly recommend Daylin without hesitation.”
“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: Proud dad of two adult dogs! Studying for the Hawaii Bar Exam and looking for study breaks to walk some beautiful pups! I’d love to take your doggie out for a walk! Studying full time for now, at home. Partner works full time. Primary caretaker for our two dogs - food, meds, walks. I am home all day, with transportation. For boarding, I will be in the house almost constantly. For my own dogs, I manage their medication and feeding. We walk several times a day and get out to the dog park or the beach every day.
“Sofia is great! She’s an excellent communicator giving us constant updates. She did an amazing job taking care of our cat, being very patient with him while he acclimated to a new environment.”
“Greg was great! Poppy loved being there and loved his dog Zephyr! Greg sent photos everyday and I could tell Poppy was having a great time. Greg was easy to deal with and has a great dog property. I would book with him again.”
“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!”
