“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.”
“Greg was communicative and clearly loves dogs. I could tell my babies were in good hands getting lots of cuddles, playtime, and treats. I will definitely be using Greg again for future petsitting needs! Thanks!”
“Another great stay for Maddie at Hisae's care. Maddie recognized the place right away and made herself confortable as soon as I dropped her off. Hisae kept updated daily with photos and messages. Highly reccomended.”
“Pei was amazing with my dog Rosie! She had a sleepover with him and his family on Sunday and will also be staying with him for an extended visit over Christmas. He truly welcomes dogs into his home and treats them like part of the family. Rosie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for, which gave me so much peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Pei with her again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a safe, loving place for their dog. :)”
“Diana did an amazing job taking care of my dogs! I loved getting daily pictures. Her xommunication was fantastic, and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!”
“Joel is THE BEST! He is so kind, and I felt very comfortable leaving our pup with him. Everything worked out great. Will definitely have him care for our Maya again!”
“Let me first preface with there's not enough good things to say about our experience with Ashley! She deserves more than 5 Stars! Suffice to say, we have found a permanent boarder for our Husky, Hana! Quick, efficient and detailed updates and correspondence with plenty of photos. Our puppy Hana, is a delicate flower, very timid and practically scared of her own shadow when around strangers or in public, but it was in her stars to have someone like Ashley whom gave her the compassionate, loving care she needs. It's obvious the experience was exceptionally good for her, as she has matured so fast in just 2 weeks of boarding. We have to be thankful as well of Ashley's fur-baby Apollo, as having a grown husky to show our pup the ropes has helped her come out of her shell further. Ashley then went a step further with follow up correspondence to ensure Hana had a nice transition back home. We're so thankful, Mahalo nui loa!”
“Ace had a wonderful stay with Emma! She is so warm and kind. Loved that she sent a video of Ace and a photo right before bed. Totally eased my mind and was worry free about him. Will definitely have Ace stay with her again. :) Thank you Emma.”
“2nd time I’ve used her and she did amazing! She was so considerate the entire time she had my boy and sent so many pictures of him being absolutely pampered!!! She literally made him a mini pancake, like I will 100% be keeping her around!! He came home yesterday and I’m not even kidding when I tell you he’s going through withdraw from being pampered with her!”
“Jacque is a clear communicator, flexible, and last minute arrangements made smoothly. Drop off and pickup were QUICK!!! Sandy came home calm and clean. Mahalo!”
“We had gone on a trip and left our Sadie with Tracey. I recommend her highly. She took amazing care of Sadie and sent me photos everyday as this was the first time leaving her. I could see she was enjoying her time away from home. She was well taken care of and loved. I couldn’t have been more pleased with the service Sadie received. Thank you Tracey to you and your ohana for the love you showed Sadie girl.”
“Christine provided great care to my pampered pet. He bonded with her husband (rather than her dogs) and was his constant shadow. Sending me photos and updates during my trip eased my concerns. When we dropped Bailey off, it was raining and he whimpered as if we were abandoning him. The updates proved my worries were needless.”
“Kyrie is wonderful!! Such a warm and caring soul, and she took excellent care of our pup Rosie. We loved the pics and videos she sent that showed Rosie safe, happy and comfortable in Kyrie's home from day 1. ❤️”
“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.”
“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!”

“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.”

About: I've always had a big heart for all animals. Growing up, we weren't allowed to have any pets larger than a rabbit- so I worked with that. We had fish, turtles, a lizard, chinchilla, but always begged for more. On my 12th birthday was when my sister and I were finally granted a miracle- our mother was allowing for us to adopt a set of kittens. From there, our furry family grew. We now have another cat and two dogs! When working to prove our responsibility, my sister and I took it upon ourselves to become our neighborhoods pet sitter and walker. In school, I had won an award for dedicating most community service hours where I volunteered to help at my local animal shelter. After high school I moved a lot for school and work, so had to leave behind my furry family behind at my familys home. Today in NC I have a small pup and rescued stray cat. They are the lights of my life and I would love to share some love with your fur baby as well!
About: I'm responsible, dependable and I love doggies I have never watched or taken care of other people's doggies before. But I'm willing to learn and have fun doing it. When my parents are away I watch my parents doggies. I'm looking for a second income because I live on my own. It's hard to live in Hawaii and not have extra income coming in. I just started a new job at Gyotaku in Aikahi Shopping Center.
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’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.
“She went above and beyond to help me out, sent me multiple pictures, videos and update. She took care of them like her own and made them comfortable and safe away from home. I would recommend her and would use again if needed.”
“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: 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.
“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 specialize in providing loving, stress-free boarding and daycare for cats of all ages and personalities.

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: 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.
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.
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: 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.

“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.”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and intention I bring to each visit.

Whether it’s a high-energy walk or a calm check-in, I adapt to what your pet needs that day so they come back happy, balanced, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to plan walks, drop-ins, and visits around the pet’s needs rather than forcing them into a rigid time slot. Since I’m already home throughout the day, I’m able to provide consistent availability, quick response times, and reliable scheduling for morning, midday, and evening care. I can also easily adjust my routine if a pet needs extra attention, a longer walk, or last-minute care.

I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain a calm, clean, and consistent environment while making sure pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they’re used to. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions provided so nothing is disrupted. During visits, I focus on creating a safe and positive experience—whether that means structured walks, playtime, potty breaks, or just calm companionship for pets who prefer a quieter presence. I also make sure to communicate updates so owners feel confident and informed while they’re away.

About: Hello! I cannot wait to meet you and your furry friend(s). My name is Maddie and I have 2 furry friends of my own and have had dogs my entire life. I started a dog sitting company in my neighborhood when I was only 12 years old and have been pet sitting ever since! I have always had mid sized dogs, but care for dogs of all sizes! I love exploring the outdoors and look forward to many furry adventures with your pal. Something special about my care is I love to bring special treats, toys, and surprises for your dog to keep. Only with your permission, of course! I am currently in a seminary bible program and available afternoons and weekends! My schedule is pretty flexible between classes as well for quick check ins. I make sure to follow owners instructions to make sure the pets are comfortable and happy! I will also make sure to reward your pet as appropriate.
“I was very nervous about not coming home to take my puppy out during lunch but Andrea has been amazing! She takes my baby out for a walk and plays with her when I can’t be there. She even brought her a new teething toy. I couldn’t recommend Andrea enough!”

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.

About: I’ve been lucky to share my life with dogs of all shapes and sizes and understand that each one is unique in their own way. Whether you have a playful puppy or a wise senior, I’ll make sure your furry family member gets the same love, attention, and personalized care they’re used to while you’re away. You can rest easy knowing they’re in loving hands. From Oʻahu to the neighboring islands (I’d happily book a flight or car to watch your pet, and have even pet sat on Molokai before), I’d be honored to care for your pet as if they were my own.

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.

“Greg was communicative and clearly loves dogs. I could tell my babies were in good hands getting lots of cuddles, playtime, and treats. I will definitely be using Greg again for future petsitting needs! Thanks!”
“Another great stay for Maddie at Hisae's care. Maddie recognized the place right away and made herself confortable as soon as I dropped her off. Hisae kept updated daily with photos and messages. Highly reccomended.”
“Pei was amazing with my dog Rosie! She had a sleepover with him and his family on Sunday and will also be staying with him for an extended visit over Christmas. He truly welcomes dogs into his home and treats them like part of the family. Rosie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for, which gave me so much peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Pei with her again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a safe, loving place for their dog. :)”
“Let me first preface with there's not enough good things to say about our experience with Ashley! She deserves more than 5 Stars! Suffice to say, we have found a permanent boarder for our Husky, Hana! Quick, efficient and detailed updates and correspondence with plenty of photos. Our puppy Hana, is a delicate flower, very timid and practically scared of her own shadow when around strangers or in public, but it was in her stars to have someone like Ashley whom gave her the compassionate, loving care she needs. It's obvious the experience was exceptionally good for her, as she has matured so fast in just 2 weeks of boarding. We have to be thankful as well of Ashley's fur-baby Apollo, as having a grown husky to show our pup the ropes has helped her come out of her shell further. Ashley then went a step further with follow up correspondence to ensure Hana had a nice transition back home. We're so thankful, Mahalo nui loa!”
“2nd time I’ve used her and she did amazing! She was so considerate the entire time she had my boy and sent so many pictures of him being absolutely pampered!!! She literally made him a mini pancake, like I will 100% be keeping her around!! He came home yesterday and I’m not even kidding when I tell you he’s going through withdraw from being pampered with her!”
“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.”
“Christine provided great care to my pampered pet. He bonded with her husband (rather than her dogs) and was his constant shadow. Sending me photos and updates during my trip eased my concerns. When we dropped Bailey off, it was raining and he whimpered as if we were abandoning him. The updates proved my worries were needless.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Jessica is the best!!! She knows dogs so well and is so good with them!!! She makes sure they feel right at home and sends updates and pictures throughout their stay! My boy is always so excited and happy to go stay at her house!!! He is well loved and cared for when I’m gone and I couldn’t be happier!!!”
“Paige and her husband did a great job making sure my very shy cat was comfortable during the week I was gone. She was very responsive in updating me when I asked about my cat. 👍👍👍”

“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
