“My dog stayed with Martha and her family for a few days while I was away. She took great care of him, and followed all the instructions I gave. I think he enjoyed it there more than being at home! I would highly recommend Martha to anyone in the area, and I will be using her services again.”
“Tracey and her mom were great! This was the first time my Chihuahua stayed with anyone besides me and he is shy and generally scared of other people and animals. Due to a last minute family issue we had to fly to the mainland for a week. Tracey was kind and reassuring and sent pictures of Toby everyday. She made the process much less stressful and I know Toby was well cared for while we were gone. I would definitely recommend her and will definitely call on her again the next time we need to go back to the mainland.”
“Jacque's family is the most empathetic in caring for our dog. She goes above and beyond for which we are grateful. There's only one person on island for our Mylo.”
“We were mildly nervous about leaving our Cooper with a family that he’s not used to. The minute we contacted Kyrie, we felt at ease with her openness and willingness to allow us to introduce Cooper to her, her family and her home prior to booking. Cooper stayed with Kyrie and her family for almost 2 weeks. During that time, we were sent daily videos and pictures of how the day was going. We felt that ease with the honesty and transparency of how he was doing. Initially, he was quite nervous about being with the family, and Kyrie was very transparent about that fact. With the patince of both her and her family, Cooper quickly adjusted to being a guest in their home, and settled into being comfortable and even snuggled on their laps. In the videos, you could see that Cooper became his happy, inquisitive self again! What a relief to be so far away from our loved furry, knowing that he was being well taken care of! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We would definitely not hesitate to use Kyrie and her services again in trusting Cooper in her care!”
“Jessica was amazing. She sent pics daily. i really felt comfortable leaving my little chihuahua with her. I loved that Lexi had other dogs and children to play with. i would certainly recommend Jessica”
“Absolutely Phenomenal! I cannot recommend Pei highly enough! I used his services for a 12-day trip to Japan, and he was incredible. Right from the start, he went above and beyond by meeting my large Pitt Bull a few weeks in advance just to ensure they were a perfect match. I can say with full confidence that If you have a larger dog, he is exactly who you need. His knowledge, canine "know-how," and ability to confidently handle and control bigger dogs is impressive. Because of this, I was able to enjoy my vacation with total peace of mind. I would recommend Pei to anyone in a heartbeat and will definitely use him again!”
“Emma has been an amazing part of my Toast’s life. She has taken care of her like her own. Her whole family just welcomed Toast and loved on her every time. We traveled with our Toast and she worked with us and the pet travel company to ensure a smooth travel for Toasty. I literally can’t thank Emma enough for all the love and support over the years, and will definitely use her in the future. Thank you, Emma!!”
“Joel is the best, and is my first choice to take care of my girl while I'm away. My dog is shy and takes time to warm up. Not only is he patient with her but takes her on multiple walks to help her get comfortable.”
“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.”
“This was our second time using Diana, and she exceeded expectations again! Her communication was outstanding! Quick responses and adorable photos of Dwight and Zoe throughout their stay gave us great peace of mind. Diana went above and beyond with their care, staying on top of feeding schedules and making sure Dwight got his medicine. When we picked them up, our babies were clearly happy and well-cared for. We’re so grateful Diana was available last minute! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, loving pet care!”
“Kate was absolutely amazing. This was my first time leaving my dog with a pet sitter. I had a sitter that cancelled st the last minute and then I found Kate (I could not be happier.) Even though this was last minute Kate took the time to come meet me and my dog. She was wonderful with my dog. I was gone for eight days and I came home to a happy and healthy dog. I would highly recommend. Thank you again. Kate.”
“The sweetest host and my baby had such a great time! I loved my picture updates and how happy my girl looked. Even when I picked her up, Karma seemed so happy but also worn out from all the playing so I know she was well taken care of. Another great sign is that Karma didn’t come back itchy!! She has skin and food allergies so that means Samantha was good about sticking to her diet and there was nothing around to irritate Karmas skin. Absolutely love!!! Thanks again!”
“Christine took wonderful care of our dog! She was patient and kind and took the time to help her adjust to her new environment. Christine provided regular updates to help put us at ease and was so accommodating and flexible with our change in plans. Thank you so much, Christine!”
“Natalia is amazing! Our dogs had a seamless transition to her home, which she made so accommodating to the dogs she hosted. Natalia provided daily photos and updates of their adventures, which were all above and beyond! She was flexible when we thought our plans would be impacted by the Kona Low, every bit of communication was timely and thoughtful.”
“Excellent sitter. I was a little worried because our puppy has never had someone else watch her and can be quite guarded with other pets & people but she was an excellent sitter and even got our dog to open up to her after a little bit. Would definitely recommend and book again. Thank you.”
“100% would recommend!! Thank you Yiye, Ta and Irene for taking such wonderful care of Saint! The daily photos and videos were surely comforting to see him enjoying his time at your home. I appreciate your loving and caring attention with Saint and will be definitely requesting your dog sitting services in the future.”
“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!”
“Senne took amazing care of both of my dogs and sent me updates and photos frequently which was nice! I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an awesome dog sitter!!”
“Angela was a great dog sitter. She and her boys cared for our 14-yr old black lab, Willie. Willie bonded to Angela's son and enjoyed his visit. Willie has arthritis and is still recovering from a torn knee ligament in his rear leg. Angela took great care of him, giving him his prescribed medication and keeping him comfortable. We'd definitely recommend her and we look forward to using her pet sitting services again.”
“Stephanie was an excellent match for our 4 year old English Bulldog Ripley! She was very patient and helped Ripley feel comfortable in the new environment. We got frequent photos/videos and updates, and Ripley really enjoyed the attention and walks she got over her 2-week stay.”

“She was amazing! Even brought in our packages by the back door. Very thorough and considerate. I would definitely use her again and would trust her with my furry family member. We are very pleased with Rover and Gracie.”
About: I’ve always been a responsible pet owner since I was little and have had numerous unique pets growing up. I love pet sitting, walking, and taking care of them all as if they were my own 🩷 I am currently a substitute teacher and have some extra time and days I don’t have work so I have free time for walks and cuddles. I have always prioritized safety in my different occupations doing security and corrections most of my life. I take pride in people’s trust in me in different ways.
“Kaliyah did an amazing job taking care of my cats for a full week! She communicated regularly, sent multiple pictures, and made the whole process so smooth by coordinating both pickup and drop-off. My cats were clearly well cared for, and I had complete peace of mind while I was away. I definitely look forward to booking with her again!”
About: I have cared for a pet ever since I was 5 years old. My family has a love for animals. I currently have a 8 lbs Chihuahua who is people friendly and loves new friends. I am currently available Friday through Monday morning. Where I am able to provide full care for animals. The will have the company of my male dog as well. I have a pet playground that is fenced in and I also have a balcony for fresh air. My current dog “Peanut” loves to go out there and watch the neighbors.
About: I’ve cared for pets almost my entire life and have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies who need structure and consistency, as well as older dogs who require patience, gentleness, and a slower pace. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, and any special needs to make sure every pet feels safe and cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, basic training, or simply keeping your pet company, I always treat animals like they’re my own. I’m reliable, calm, and very detail-oriented, which helps pets settle in quickly. I take the time to understand each animal’s temperament so they feel comfortable and supported. I’m experienced with puppy basics like crate training, leash manners, and reinforcing good habits. I’m also confident with senior dogs who may need slower walks, medication reminders, or extra monitoring. Communication is a big priority for me—I send plenty of updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you complete peace of mind. I’m currently working part time on the weekends and I’m free during the week. So I’ll have plenty of time to care for you’re pets! I make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable. My home has a big fenced yard with nice grass and plenty of space to run around. Inside, there’s lots of room to relax and play too. I keep a close eye on pets, follow their routines, and make sure they feel right at home the whole time.

I offer more than just traditional pet sitting – I focus on enriching your pet's life with exciting pet adventures, including hiking, long walks, and outdoor play. These activities not only keep your pet active but also provide them with mental stimulation, which is especially important for large breeds. Additionally, I have extensive experience with behavior correction, helping your pets develop good habits and reinforcing positive behavior.

Your pet will receive the highest level of care and attention, tailored to their individual needs and preferences. I’m here to ensure they not only feel cared for but also thrive while you’re away.

“Gabriella took care of my cats while I was away. She took pictures of them daily and messaged me every time she dropped by. Even when I wasn't able to answer right away, she made sure I have my updates. She even took care of some things in the house for me. Overall, my cats loved her and she did an awesome job caring for them. I was reassured each visit and with that I had a peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely request her again if ever I need someone to look after my pets.”
About: I’ve cared for friends and family dogs since 2020, offering boarding, sitting, and even basic training to keep pups happy and learning. I always make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Pup care fits easily into my daily routine since I currently have plenty of free time and love spending it with animals. I’m living on base and unemployed right now, so my schedule is very flexible — which means I can give pets my full attention for walks, playtime, and keeping them comfortable throughout the day. Your pet safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure every walk is safe, fun and suited to their energy level. If your pup prefers staying cozy at home, I’m just as happy to play with them in their own comfort zone.
About: Hello Everyone ! My name is Crystal, I’ve been living on island for about a year now. Wanting to find some side jobs to help time pass by. I had a childhood black lab named Spunky for over 10 years, so I have a lot of experience and love in the dog department . However, I am open to all animals! There is plenty of love to go around lol . Would love the opportunity to take care of your loved ones , after all they are like family ❤️ Extremely flexible schedule currently, any time doesn’t matter for me at the moment . Week days are preferred however, weekends are not a problem . I take care of all animals as if they are my own. I have not had animals in my home personally, I typically will go to the owners home for walks or watch their pets overnight !
About: Rest assured your pets will be well taken care of with me! I’m a veterinary technician who specializes in emergency and critical care, my hours are extremely flexible and I can provide attentive round the clock care to your pets. Having worked at both major 24 hr veterinary ER and specialty centers on island, I have extensive knowledge and experience when it comes to animal medicine and my rate reflects that. I offer medical boarding for any special needs pets at no additional charge and will ensure any paraplegic kiddos remain clean and regularly bathed. Medication administration is included if necessary as we I commonly take on senior or chronic illness pets. I live in a duplex style house in Aiea with a shared unfenced yard we use with long leads. We have a small fenced area right outside our door that we have set up with raised and perforated turf tiles to allow immediate access to bathroom breaks if we can’t make it out for a walk right away. (We clean this area after every potty to ensure it stays clean as dogs also like to use this area to sunbathe). Our two story home is ideal for both pets that love other animals and those that don’t. I have specialized in behavior modification for years so I regularly take on pets that have their own quirks. We are able to keep dogs separate while they acclimate to their new surroundings without crating them. However, we do ask that you provide a crate if your dog is used to that. I have 4 dogs of my own, 2 are trained service dogs and the other 2 are well behaved (but energetic) pups who all love other dogs. They have been my assistants for behavior modification when we work on reactivity in other dogs. My dogs are all crate trained and go in their crates to sleep or if we need to run an errand with the exception of my female, Julep. She typically stays out in the house when we leave unless one of our boarding dogs needs to roam. Boarding in our homes means that your dogs will get 2 long walks a day (I’m currently in a leg immobilizer so I am limited in the physical exercise I can provide outside) from my wonderful boyfriend who works for HFD. They will have 24/7 access to potty breaks and will not be left unattended for more than 4 hours. For everyone’s safety, we crate dogs if we are gone. Dogs unable to be crated can be left out either downstairs or upstairs, separated by a gate. We do not allow dogs from different families to stay out together unattended, however if you are boarding more than 1 of your own dogs who cannot be crated and/or are trusted to be left out together we can accommodate that. We have 24/7 2-way audio cameras in the house to ensure everyone’s safety if I do need to run out for anything. We have plenty of treats, toys, and puzzles to keep everyone entertained throughout the day and love taking well behaved and socialized dogs to Moanalua off leash dog park or Kuliouou beach park. I’ve worked 7+ years in VetMed and behavior modification. I am currently home almost 24/7 due to an injury so I can provide round the clock care for our boarders. We have a very structured home, morning walks before 6am and breakfast shortly after that (all dogs eat either in their own crate or in a separate area of the house as to not risk any resource guarding behavior). Multiple short bathroom walks throughout the day and constant access to an enclosed outdoor area for emergency bathroom breaks or fresh air. Dinner at 5pm and evening walks around 6/7pm when my boyfriend gets home from work. During the day dogs are either all out together or rotated through different areas if they don’t play well with others. We have tons of toys, beds, blankets, etc so you don’t need to supply your own. You are more than welcome to but one of my dogs is a shredder so I cannot guarantee anything soft/stuffed will make it back in one piece. I do my best but Julep really likes to disembowel toys and beds. We board at maximum 4 dogs at a time, which means 8 dogs in the house. If you have a special needs dog that you feel requires private booking please include that in your booking request so we can discuss their needs! At night we do our best to accommodate your pups regular sleeping routine. Whether that is crate, couch, floor, dog, our bed, etc.
“Jasón was great. I met him at his house and his service was friendly and efficient. I recommend Jasón to take good care of your pets. I will use him again as he is trustworthy and honest.”
About: I have been blessed to have grown up with dogs in my household so being with them is like being with family. For 17years I got to learn common behaviors, body language, and how to do basic training with them. I get along well with all animals, but I love being with dogs the most. I am very reliable and believe communication is key, it's very important in providing the best care as possible. I am available most days but I just need a heads up so I can plan and prepare for your pet. I can give full care to your pets such as feeding, walking, bathing and even some much needed belly scratches. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pet! Mahalo for your consideration. I am a home caregiver and have short hours throughout the week usually 8am-12pm and off for the rest of the day. Weekends are completely open and I can be with your pet. I do not have a yard, but we often get out of the house and go to the park or to a nearby beach to let out some energy. I work 8-12pm and off for the rest of the day. So fitting in a drop in or a walk is perfect! So getting in your pets daily walk while you’re away at work fits perfectly with my schedule. I have pet seat belts when going for car rides to the beach or to a hike to keep them safe while transporting. Keeping all gates and doors closed while in the home will avoid any quick get aways.
“Renata was great with taking care of Sprout, Fluffy and Phoebe. This was our second rebook with Renata Renata did a great job trying to get my antisocial cat, Sprout, to eat. Sprout is such a mama’s girl that she has a tendency to stay out and not come inside for food when I’m gone. Renata did her best to tempt her and put her bowl in different eating locations, closer to where she was seeing her hide out. I always know what a good job Renata does because both Phoebe and Fluffy are super chill when I arrive back home and not stressed. Thank you Renata 😊”
About: I have been housesitting and pet watching for over 20 years (I cared for neighbors animals since Highschool). I prefer to go in home so the animal(s) are more comfortable. I have a 2 year old bunny (Thor) who gets along well with other animals but is also happy to stay in his crate away from more aggressive animals if need. I have watched many cats, dogs, and homes over the past 20 years. Most recently, I cared for 2 mid sized dogs for just over a year while their family lived abroad in Germany. I now have more time and would like to continue caring for other animals when their owners travel from Hawaii. I've lived on Oahu for just over 12 years and am happy to travel to most locations on island but reside Windward so there maybe an additional fee. I would consider outer island during school breaks and on weekends. I've been working as a tele school psychologist for this year (over 12 years exp) and am well versed in positive behavior supports (as they work well with children as well as animals). I now telework so have time to spend with the animals during the day as well as evenings and mornings like I previously did. I prefer to stay in home. I am available 3/6-3/26 Oahu I do not care for pets in my home. My bunny, Thor, comes with me and this generally provides entertainment and great photo opps for the pets we watch.
About: Full range of experience with animals. Enjoy pets and love helping others with their pets needs so they are comfortable knowing their pets are safe and well cared for. I have a very flexible schedule and can work with your needs. I am willing to work with your own personal needs, schedule and requirements I do house check-Ins, walks, house sitting needs along with pet needs. Your pets and home will be treated like them like they are my own.

About: My dogs have always been my best friends. I have had experience with small, medium, and large dogs. I am careful to listen to and respect the routine and rules that you have for your fur baby, no matter how big or small. I’m a big fan of taking them for walks on the beach and shady hikes! I also love a good excuse to drive around looking for a good place for my pup to stretch her legs, or be a good cuddle buddy. I am currently a small business owner in private practice as a healthcare provider. Dog sitting was something I loved doing for many years, but paused to do to care for my senior dog for the last 3 years. After recently losing her, and not being ready for a new love of my own, I’d be honored for the opportunity to care for your pet. I live in Kaaawa but am able to travel anywhere on island to care for your pet(s). Thank you for reading my profile, & I hope to hear from you soon! I work from home doing telehealth, largely from 11-4 M/W/F so I have lots of time and breaks to spend with your pet. I spend most days at home, able to provide exercise and maintain routine feeding throughout the day. I am used to administering meds on a schedule and provide frequent updates to owners (if they’d like!). I am careful to follow the house rules and your pet’s routine. I know it takes a lot of trust for someone to care for your fur baby, and I am a trusted member of the community. I am transparent about my stay in your home and understand it is a privilege to be there and be trusted to care for your animal. I provide lots of play time and cuddles! I always leave homes cleaner than they are left. My reviews are older because of the break I took from Rover to care for my senior pup, but I still value the same service.
“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!”
About: As a former dog mom of three for over 10 years, I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, my flexibility (I’m available every day of the week!), and my attention to detail. Also I have reliable transportation. I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I am currently taking a break from work (I am a teacher). So I am available any day of the week. I love to go to the beach, run, go on hikes. So if you prefer I can take the dog with me. Me and my boyfriend live in the house on the North Shore. We don’t have a fence in our house. I am available to walk the dog 3 times a day. I love going for a walk and I have plenty of free time.
“Everything about Kelsey Ann is excellent! We booked easily, and she even took Cassi to the park. Cassi had a great play day in a loving home. Kelsey Ann is the best! Thank you!”
“We are incredibly happy our furbaby was able to attend daycare with Tracey and Mama! They were soul loving and kept the communication lines wide open. We received many photos throughout the day, which we appreciated as we were nervous first time parents, leaving our furbaby with anyone besides immediate family. We’re beyond appreciative with the care and love he was provided and would gladly use Tracey and Mama again! ???”

“Mary was very kind and took time to acquaint herself with my dog Presley, an 8 year old high(ish) maintenance Shih Tsu. She has two other dogs and a cat that are also very kind and patient with other animals too. The layout for pet sitting is wonderful, with a large covered deck and large yard to explore. Presley was very happy both before and after his visit and I have been very pleased with the entire process. I would recommend Mary highly and I will be using her on a regular basis.”
“Rose is the perfect dogsitter! My husband and I both work and need someone to watch our Shiba mix or take her on two walks, and Rose was so flexible and easy to work with. Best of all she was so careful introducing our pup to other dogs walking with her, all my anxiety was for nothing :) 10/10 will be booking with Rose again!”
About: Starting with my own pets at a young age, I've had years of experience taking care of animals. Not only do I know how to take care of animals well, but I love to do it! A big part of my 'why' for sitting is my love for animals and wanting to spend more time with animals! I work from home, so when sitting, your animal will be watched after all day! I can watch/walk at any time that fits their normal routine. I live in an apartment complex that has several rooftop dog parks that are available. They're never too busy and they're kept up very well. I also live by several parks and love going for walks, so that will be can be my main way of taking them out if that's what the animal prefers!
About: A retired marine biologist. I have had dogs my entire life. Raised puppies and watched them grow old. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and energy levels. Retired. I’m available most days if you need your pets to be simply fed, let out to pee, or to be entertained. While I take same day requests, there are no guarantees because I have several regularly scheduled walks and drop ins. Please reply promptly, I archive when no response in 24 hours. I have a fenced yard and a young corgi who has full run of the house. He can be shy to other dogs. If your dog has any aggressive tendencies or Keahi does not get along with them for whatever reason, we cannot board your dog. Meet and greets are mandatory before any boarding or daycare. Dogs must be house trained for boarding or daycare (paper trained is not house trained). I cannot and will not leave food out. If your dog has issues eating when they are fed (I feed them when I feed my dog), I have to take your dog’s food away and store it. This is a house, not a kennel where your dog has an assigned lot. If your dog has these feeding issues, consider another sitter. I have no kids on property.
About: Hello Pet Parents! My name’s Samantha, currently I am a single mom to an 19 month old boy and also a dog-mama to my Shih tzu named Cheech! I have had dogs my entire life and have been doing Rover for many years now. I take pride in my work and take it seriously, if I was going to have someone watch Cheech I would want to know they are trustworthy, diligent, understanding, and patient. So that is how I am with the pets in my care. I'll do anything to make a pups tail wag!! 🐾💝 I currently am a stay at home mom of one. I have the ability yo keep your pups schedule on track while they are in my care. I only work one a day week away from home ( I come home in my lunch break) and do property management from home on the side. My sister watches my son on the one day that I do go to work, so if your pet stays with me I would always be around or my sister would be at my home to let your pet outside, walk them, and care for their needs. :) I do not normally host more than one families pet/s at once but if I was going to, I would let both owners know before doing so and only with dogs that I had watched before and know that there would not be any issues. I offer pet/house sitting, I need to be able to bring my son with me & if possible I like to bring my shih tzu Cheech with me to boarding jobs. (But I do understand sometimes that isn’t an option. I don’t want any dog or cat feeling like their home is being invaded.) I have a small yard at my home to take dogs out but there isnt much running space if your dog is high energy. Luckily I do have a bike path right near by we can walk to for walks! If I have multiple dogs staying with me I do have the ability to separate them if necessary during eating, sleeping, or when I do run errands.
“Zoro had a Blast with Lily and her dog Kiko! He was in a great mood when I picked him up and seemed exhausted. Lily sent pictures and was very easy to communicate with. Mahalo!”
About: 🌺 I will be on hiatus for dog services July-August for recovery. I will reopen dog services mid August!🌺 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.
“This is our first time with Rover and appreciated Christine doing a meet and greet and then trying a last minute visit the following day. Bishop enjoyed hanging with her fur babies and we are so relieved to have someone watch Bishop. He is a shelter pup and needs a little more love when we are not around.”

“Kairee was great with our dogs! She was able to walk them together, something we don’t even do. She also played with our dogs when the walk was shorter than time booked. This was the first time we used Rover and we were really happy with Kairee. We had peace of mind knowing our dogs would have exercise and company while we were on our trip.”
About: I'm amazing with animals. (Dogs specifically.) I can say this confidently, because I'm able to understand and reciprocate communication without a single word being used. I've been attacked before, and stayed because I understand that misbehavior probably has a deeper issue than just wanting to cause pain. - Simply put. I love seeing animals happy within a loving environment. But enough with the bragging and sob stories.😂 If you need a walker, a babysitter, or someone to love the bad behavior out of your furbaby, please reach out! I have 100% open availability. I'm currently working on breaking into the freelance lifestyle, so my flexibility allows for last-minute changes and needs! Open to all days and times! I live in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful but unfenced yard. Your place is honestly (probably) better than mine. I'm a single independent woman with both professional and personal references - can be available to sit at the owner's location with ease of mind guaranteed!

I will always leave a space cleaner than found, if I am house sitting/pet sitting I will lightly clean the area. If your animal becomes muddy, or dirty under my care I will wash them.

About: I have been housesitting and pet watching for over 20 years (I cared for neighbors animals since Highschool). I prefer to go in home so the animal(s) are more comfortable. I have a 2 year old bunny (Thor) who gets along well with other animals but is also happy to stay in his crate away from more aggressive animals if need. I have watched many cats, dogs, and homes over the past 20 years. Most recently, I cared for 2 mid sized dogs for just over a year while their family lived abroad in Germany. I now have more time and would like to continue caring for other animals when their owners travel from Hawaii. I've lived on Oahu for just over 12 years and am happy to travel to most locations on island but reside Windward so there maybe an additional fee. I would consider outer island during school breaks and on weekends. I've been working as a tele school psychologist for this year (over 12 years exp) and am well versed in positive behavior supports (as they work well with children as well as animals). I now telework so have time to spend with the animals during the day as well as evenings and mornings like I previously did. I prefer to stay in home. I am available 3/6-3/26 Oahu I do not care for pets in my home. My bunny, Thor, comes with me and this generally provides entertainment and great photo opps for the pets we watch.

“Jessica was amazing. She sent pics daily. i really felt comfortable leaving my little chihuahua with her. I loved that Lexi had other dogs and children to play with. i would certainly recommend Jessica”
“Absolutely Phenomenal! I cannot recommend Pei highly enough! I used his services for a 12-day trip to Japan, and he was incredible. Right from the start, he went above and beyond by meeting my large Pitt Bull a few weeks in advance just to ensure they were a perfect match. I can say with full confidence that If you have a larger dog, he is exactly who you need. His knowledge, canine "know-how," and ability to confidently handle and control bigger dogs is impressive. Because of this, I was able to enjoy my vacation with total peace of mind. I would recommend Pei to anyone in a heartbeat and will definitely use him again!”
“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.”
“The sweetest host and my baby had such a great time! I loved my picture updates and how happy my girl looked. Even when I picked her up, Karma seemed so happy but also worn out from all the playing so I know she was well taken care of. Another great sign is that Karma didn’t come back itchy!! She has skin and food allergies so that means Samantha was good about sticking to her diet and there was nothing around to irritate Karmas skin. Absolutely love!!! Thanks again!”
“Christine took wonderful care of our dog! She was patient and kind and took the time to help her adjust to her new environment. Christine provided regular updates to help put us at ease and was so accommodating and flexible with our change in plans. Thank you so much, Christine!”
“Natalia is amazing! Our dogs had a seamless transition to her home, which she made so accommodating to the dogs she hosted. Natalia provided daily photos and updates of their adventures, which were all above and beyond! She was flexible when we thought our plans would be impacted by the Kona Low, every bit of communication was timely and thoughtful.”
“Angela was a great dog sitter. She and her boys cared for our 14-yr old black lab, Willie. Willie bonded to Angela's son and enjoyed his visit. Willie has arthritis and is still recovering from a torn knee ligament in his rear leg. Angela took great care of him, giving him his prescribed medication and keeping him comfortable. We'd definitely recommend her and we look forward to using her pet sitting services again.”
“Brianda is an amazing dog sitter. Super friendly, great communication, and keeps me updated with pictures and check ins on what my rascal is doing. She is good with dogs and im happy that Leia has sometimes other sweet dogs she can hang out with.”
“Kaia absolutely loves Jessica's house especially her favorite play mates! They have a great yard for the dogs to play and were super attentive to all of our dogs needs. They gave her all the love and attention we would give her if we were there. Jessica was also great about sending pictures and updates to keep us in the loop and ease our minds. We can't thank her enough for taking such good care of our pup and Kaia can't wait to go back to play!”
“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!”
“We had the best experience with Megan and her family taking care of our pup Margo! Margo got plenty of exercise and care while we were out of town. Megan was super communicative and flexible.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Angela was a life saver, she agreed to take in my dog Tank for a couple of weeks on short notice. We did a meet and greet and Tank was cool and comfortable at her place. She sent pictures and let me know how he was doing. Taking him on walks and just keeping him busy. So, if you need a sitter, give her a call. (Probably best to get in touch with her sooner than later.) lol Thanks again, Angela.”
“I can’t say enough great things about Madison! She is a lifesaver!!! The sitter I currently had booked cancelled on me at the last minute and Madison came to the rescue. She was able to care for 3, and again I will say 3 of my dogs at the last minute. No words can express how truly grateful I am to her as I had a trip booked for my family. She is so sweet and you could tell that she loves animals!!! I trusted her from the get go even though we didn’t do a meet and greet. She also sent me daily pictures/updates. I knew my babies were in great hands!!! I would definitely book with her again!!! If you’re looking for someone to take great care of your dogs, she is your girl! Highly recommend!!!!”
“Trinity took great care of my dog while I traveled. Communication was excellent, and she asked all the right questions about caring for my dog during our initial meet and greet. She sent photos and provided regular updates during the stay.”
