“Tracey and her mother, Yuet, are great boarders. I was new to Rover and they were very responsive, advised me on what to pack and sent several pictures every day. Our dog was treated as their own pet with access to their home. Ozzie had fun with playing with their small dog. Their set up has a dedicated space indoor & outdoor to play and potty. I would definitely hire them again as I didn't have to worry at all. Thanks Tracey!”
“Jacque took care of our dog Kanani when we had our house fumigated for termites. I immediately felt comfortable leaving Kanani with her. Jacque and her daughter Lexi are very loving and caring. She sent us pictures of Kanani throughout her stay there. Kanani looked very comfortable and happy. I even joked that maybe Kanani wouldn't want to come back home. I highly recommend Jacque if you need to board your pet.”
“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!!”
“Thank you for sending us pictures and videos everyday. Butterscotch had fun meeting and playing with new friends. We appreciated you gave him a bath and brushed him. We would definitely ask Lauren again in the future. Thank you!”
“I can’t recommend Ayla enough. She was caring and attentive throughout, and it was clear my dog was in great hands. She took Peaches on small adventures every day and sent plenty of updates, so I never had to wonder how she was doing. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and will absolutely book her again.”
“Daisy is amazing. We have peace of mind when leaving our dog Chloe with her. It’s our 2nd time and we will continue to only book her for future dog sitting. She’s friendly, shares pictures, and has great communication. Thank you so much for taking care of Chloe!”
“James took good care of Momo and we appreciated the regular updates and photos he sent to us while we were away. Momo likes attention and James was very attentive to her needs. James also has a large fenced yard that was good for Momo to enjoy and explore.”
“As usual, McKenley was reliable, attentive, and caring throughout the entire stay. Communication was excellent, and our dog received outstanding care. We appreciated the regular updates and peace of mind while we were away!”
“Samantha was great in sending pictures of our fur baby often! It was challenging to leave her, she has separation anxiety and seizures but on medication to control them. Henny felt loved and we definitely felt she was being cherished and well taken care of! We will definitely use her again!”
“Yvette was truly great! The pups had a wonderful time with her and she gave daily updates. She was very accommodating to my last minute changing schedule. Was so happy to have been able to book her and love on the pups!”
“Diana was AWESOME!! Fantastic communication from initial inquiry, meet-up, drop-off and throughout our trip. Kept us updated with messages and pictures every day. Her home was great with lots of space indoors and out. Fenced yard and air conditioning inside were both BIG pluses! Our corgi was well taken care of while we were gone. Would definitely book with her again!”
“Catalina is a great communicator and care taker. My pet had a good time at her home and was happy when I picked him up. I would gladly utilize her Rover services again!”
“Angie took great care of our dog, Koa, while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and made sure he was well cared for. We came home to a happy pup and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Sis was amazing! I was nervous about leaving my puppy, Poe, for the first time while our family went on a short staycation, but he walked right in without even looking back! During our initial meet and greet, I could tell that Sis really loved dogs and that Poe would be in great hands. They have a great home with a nice yard for the dogs to play! Sis sent me photo updates and I felt at ease during our vacation knowing that Poe was safe, happy and having fun with her other dogs! Would definitely recommend Sis to all my friends and family! Thank you Sis! :)”
“Krysta and Peter are wonderful people and were so easy to work with! They took the best care of our dog Luna. We will always go back to them for any of our future dog sitting needs in the Kailua area😄 They were so thoughtful, kept us updated with great photos, and reassured us that we had nothing to worry about, given it being our first time using the app. Highly recommend!”
“Jess took absolutely amazing care of our golden! She was extremely flexible, communicative, and sent so many updates including photos and videos throughout our trip. It is clear that she really cares for each animal like her own, prioritizes their comfort and safety, and I can’t recommend her enough!!”
About: I’ve grown up with cats since I was 4 years old and was responsible for all of their needs - feeding, brushing, nail clipping, litter cleaning, and of course playing and cuddling. I cared for them through their old age providing medication, physical therapy exercises, and inserting IV drips. I’ve also been my friends’ dog sitter (funcle) over the past 6 years, giving them all the walks, pets, attention, and playtime they need while their parents are away. I currently work full-time from home and can give all the attention to your pets’ throughout the work hours of the weekdays! I like to be active after work and weekends, and can take your pups out for runs or hikes, or we could lounge and chill if that’s what they need. I live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood that’s pet friendly. We have no pets at home right now so I’ll be around to give full attention to your pet!
“Jay was fantastic - he set up a meeting beforehand to make sure his and our dogs would get along and to talk through the arrangements. During the stay, he looked after our dog well, walked him daily, played frisbee with him, and sent us photos and videos. Highly recommend!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Milly. She was very happy when we picked her up and I could tell she had been well taken care of while we were away. Appreciate all of the pictures and communication while we traveled.”

“Sam took care of my two cats (5 years and a kitten) for a week at my place. She did a wonderful job communicating with me, was so responsive, sent many pictures, and my place was left exactly the same. I would highly recommend Sam and would be glad if she watched my cats again!”
“Gretchen took excellent care of our two cats and our house while we were away. She came on the agreed schedule (which worked well for them) and sent pictures, and took time to get to know the kitties first at our meet and greet. We would definitely use Gretchen again!”
“Nicole did a great job taking care of my two cats while I was away. Additionally, she was on time and I never had to worry that my cats were not being cared for.”
“Ayla was an amazing sitter for my cat! She took excellent care of him (which at the moment is challenging due to some health issues my kitty is suffering). She was a great communicator and always made sure I had updates with out even having to ask. 10/10 recommend her!”
About: I’ve taken care of an 11 year old fur baby till her last breath and I am very patient with all the animals! I really don’t have special skills other than playing the ukulele for them and spending quality time :) Aloha! My name is Kapono. I am a huge dog lover who enjoys spending time with fur babies of all ages and personalities. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just extra attention, I’m here to make sure they have a fun, safe, and a happy time! I recently graduated from Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA and I have returned back home. I am a dog owner myself. I have a 9-year-old Fox Terrier Mix and my previous dog that I owned I took care of until she passed away at 15. I am patient, committed to keeping pet owners updated with photos and communication, and really enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality :)! I have a fenced yard with a grass area where dogs can explore around and/or use the potty. My house is ac so if needed, keep them cool :)!
About: Dog lover with personal cat experience, comfortable and confident caring for cats. Attentive to their needs, providing gentle, reliable, responsible, and caring companionship and supervision.
“We’re so grateful for the care Aeryn provided while we were away. From the moment we connected, she was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and attentive to every detail. She took amazing care of our pets—not just meeting their basic needs, but truly going above and beyond to make sure they felt safe, loved, and comfortable in our absence. We received regular updates that gave us total peace of mind, and it was clear she genuinely enjoys what she does. Coming home to happy, relaxed pets said it all. We would absolutely book with Aeryn again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate sitter.”
“Malia was an absolutely amazing sitter, we will definitely book her again. She watched our senior cat (Mitzi) that has had some serious health issues the past few months, and we were quite nervous to leave her. Malia made us feel at ease, was very communicative, and confident pilling Mitzi (she needs eight pills a day). When Mitzi starting showing non-normal behavior, Malia immediately told us and sent us videos, and even ended up driving Mitzi to emergency care to make sure she was ok. Malia went above and beyond with her care of Mitzi and i'm so grateful we found such a competent and caring cat sitter.”
About: I have taken care of lots of pets since I was around 11. Friends and family have relied on me to watch their babies while on trips, or if they needed a day out! I have cared for dogs of different sizes and many breeds as well as cats and I’d be willing to learn to take care of others! I am currently a part time worker and work night times from 6:30pm, so I would have lots of time in the day to care for your animals! I can also do days I may not have on for availability as long as we communicated it. I can do any service until 5pm! Just message me about your needs and we can work through it! I am willing to learn how to cater to your pets needs and keeping the environment happy and the least stressful for your pets so they can be most comfortable while you are away!
About: I understand the temperament of kitties and understand that they are different from dogs, so I treat them accordingly by paying attention to them because I want to understand them so I can love them the best way I can!
About: Hi, I'm a remote worker who loves to travel and meet new people and pets. Recently, I have been spending more time in Hawaii, so I'm starting my Rover back up while I'm on island. I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. I've taken a training in dog body language from the humane society and am very detail oriented when it comes to following instructions for your pet's needs. I work remotely, which means more time at home caring for your dogs or cats. Feel free to reach out with any questions :) I'm happy to video call or meet in person with any potential clients to see if we'd be a good fit. I work from home on a flexible schedule, which means more time to give attention, pets, and walks to your furry loved ones. I'm happy to stick to your pet's preferred routine. Your pet will be my priority while I'm at your place. I'm also happy to tackle other responsibilities during a pet sit - picking up mail, taking out trash, etc., so that everything gets taken care of while you're away. Cleanliness will be a priority, and I always pick up after myself to leave a space exactly as I found it.
About: Caring for animals has always been a part of my life. Ever since I was a child, I was the one rescuing stray animals, caring for birds or kittens bring them back to health. Growing up I had cats, parrots. I had a French Bulldog who was my heart for many years. After he passed, I decided not to get one again, but I still miss the connection and joy animals bring. Since then, I’ve been caring for pets of friends and family. My friend has three cute Pomeranians and when she is away I walk them, feed them couple times a day and give older one necessary medication. Pet care naturally fits into my lifestyle because I love spending time with them. I do morning walks followed by feeding and fresh water, playtime with toys, evening walks and wind down routines. At the moment, my current home doesn’t allow animals, so I’m not able to host pets. However, I’m more than happy to care for pets in their own home, which many animals actually prefer since it keeps them in a familiar and comfortable environment.
About: My family has had so many different kinds of animals throughout my entire life. Several dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, tortoises, birds, pigs, bunnies, and chameleons! I work as a DoorDasher, so I make my own hours, which means I can give your pets my full time and attention! I’m constantly helping taking care of the animals in my family’s home, so I have a lot of practice! Since my family has many animals, I do not offer boarding, but my husband is a Rover sitter, so I have have already learned so much from him about making sure the pets we take care of are as comfortable as possible! We are very communicative with our clients and make sure to send frequent updates.
About: I’m someone people have trusted in high responsibility roles where staying calm, attentive, and dependable matters. I’ve worked as a frontline worker and patient transporter at The Queen’s Medical Center during COVID, as a lifeguard, and as a pilot positions where people rely on you to stay sharp, handle pressure, and do the right thing when no one is watching. That same level of care and responsibility is exactly how I approach looking after animals. I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life, including my Doberman, Floyd, and always considered myself a dog person. But after moving in with my partner, I discovered a deep love for cats as well. Her three cats quickly became my best friends and completely changed the way I understood pet care. From the start, they followed me around the house, watched everything I did, and were genuinely curious about me. I quickly learned that cats are very different from dogs. They are gentle, observant, and sensitive animals who reward patience and respect. Caring for them made me more mindful in everyday life I learned to slow my pace, move calmly, watch my step, and create a peaceful environment where they feel safe. Over the past four years, I’ve taken on full cat care responsibilities: feeding, playtime, litter box maintenance, baths when needed, walks, transportation to the vet, and learning cat behavior so I can give them the best care possible. I’m the proud “Cat Daddy” of the house and always learning more about feline health, enrichment, and safety. Because of that experience, I understand that every pet has a unique personality. Some want affection immediately, some need patience, some want to play, and some simply want calm companionship. I adapt to the animal in front of me. Whether your pet is a high-energy dog, a shy cat, or somewhere in between, they will be safe, respected, and genuinely cared for with me. My goal is simple: make sure your pets feel secure, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
About: My work and life is centered around animal care, because it is what I truly enjoy. I am a recent graduate veterinarian and I love walking dogs in my free time! I have worked as a vet tech, Doggie Daycare attendant, Wildlife Rescue volunteer, and a foster mom to many puppies. I understand how important pets are in people's lives having pets of my own, and I will treat your pet with all the love and care that I give my own animals. I am currently between positions so I have more time during the day to care for your pets. I am a morning person, so early visits are best. I can adjust to any set up you have for your animals! I like to visit with you and see the layout of how you live with your animals so I can try my best to maintain your routine.

“Thank you for taking care of my baby even though it was a short time request! Daisy and her boyfriend were very responsible and had smooth communications. I highly recommend them and definitely I will book them again.”
“Lauren was super nice and very easy to communicate with. Their house is very dog friendly and they have a great yard and baby gates to ensure the pups stay under supervision. My dog Dolly made herself right at home with their kids and dog and had a great time at daycare. I didn't worry about her at all, and we would love to book with them again!”
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.
“Naudia was key in making our Oahu vacation a truly memorable one. We flew with our pups to Oahu to celebrate a cousin's birthday. Not only did we get to see the island with them, but we also got to do adult activities as they stayed with Naudia. She was very responsive & even gave Charlotte some pumpkin to help her upset tummy. Book with her - she will surely take care of your pups!”
“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!!”
“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.”
“Maple was great, we’d definitely love for her to watch our pup Lovely again. Maple accepted our last-minute request, and responded quickly. Then, during Lovely’s day with Maple, Maple sent lots of updates, with pictures and videos. Lovely is shy around new people, but Maple was patient with her and let her take the lead on what she was comfortable with. For example, Lovely was shy to go in the house at first, so Maple set her up on a long-line on the deck and kept the door open so Lovely could go inside whenever she was ready. This was our first time using Rover, and we’re so grateful to have found Maple!”
“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”
“Sofia is excellent! She connected with Kobe instantly and has a beautiful space and park to walk them in. I highly recommended her! Thank you Sofia! 🙏🏽”
About: I've grown up around animals, rescued many dogs, owned horses, puppies, cats, fish-- you name it! Avid animal lover and knowledgeable dog owner. Experience with larger bully breeds and high energy breeds (e.g., German Shepherd, Malinois, Australian Shepherd, Border Collie, Husky, Rottweiler, Pit Bulls, etc.). I am a calm, confident dog handler with a soft spot for larger bully breeds, but have experience with all kinds of dogs. I've raised three puppies and have rehabilitated abused malinois and pit bulls with fear and aggression issues. Comfortable around all dogs, with a patient and loving demeanor. Working part-time from home with plenty of time to love on your furry family member. I have a 1yr old scrappy rescue kitty and a 2yr old friendly and energetic aussie/collie in my home. We are very active and explore the island regularly, be it hiking, swimming or romping around the dog park. Love staying active and bringing along four legged friends for the adventure. My pets are my babies and they get plenty of love and attention throughout the day, as will yours! If I'm home, my pets are my shadow (including using me as a human cushion when I'm relaxing on the couch ha) and if I have to leave, it's never for more than 4hrs. I usually leave to adventure with my dog, which means hiking, swimming or dog park activities. Your dog will get the same love, affection and exercise as my own gets and will be treated as family. We have a small fenced yard for frequent potty breaks and go on daily sniffari walks.
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.
“Karen was wonderful!!! As soon as I booked her she called me up to introduce herself and asked if I had any special requests. My dog suffers from anxiety and therefore I’m always anxious to leave him with new people. The moment I met Karen I knew my dog was going to like her. She’s warm and gentle with a bubbly personality. She sent me many photos and responded to my text messages right away. I’d recommend her in a heart beat!”

“Mahalo to Diana for watching our pup on a short notice. She was extremely accommodating., meet and greet plus the pick up and drop off was super easy. Appreciate her taking care of our pup and taking him to the park for some playtime with another doodle. Videos, photos and text message updates were highly appreciated.”
About: My pups are my heart and my life! 💖 They are the center of my world, and like many of us pet parents, I take care of my sweet babies better than I care for myself. My husband and I have had our little Marshmallow for 12 wonderful years and counting! For six amazing years, we also had our sweet CocoBear, whom we adopted as a senior with multiple health issues requiring special care. She has since crossed the rainbow bridge, but she is still loved, missed, and cherished by us every single day. Now that it’s just Marshmallow, she’d love some company! She’s super friendly and gets along very well with other doggies! 😊 Although I may be new to Rover, I’m definitely not new to caring for pets! I've been dog-sitting for over 12 years, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. In addition to dogs, I’ve had hamsters, rabbits, and birds throughout my life, and I’m also a very proud cat auntie! 🥰 I have very high standards when it comes to caring for my own babies, and I treat any pup in my care as if they were my own. I know firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your baby with someone else, so making both you and your pup feel comfortable and at ease is incredibly important to me. I’ll make sure your baby feels safe, happy, loved, spoiled, and right at home! I also love sending pet parents lots of photos and videos because I know just how much you’ll be missing them. 💖 As a stay-at-home dog mom, I’m able to give your pup constant attention, companionship, cuddles, and care. I have tons of love to give, and I’d love to shower your baby with all the love and affection in my heart! An added bonus: my husband also has a very flexible schedule and is home much of the time, so that’s double the TLC! Your baby will be petted and pampered and treated like the precious gem that they are! 🥹 I take so much pride in providing the best care, and I can’t wait to treat your baby (or babies) to a fun vacation and a warm, loving home away from home while you’re away! 🥰 I am a stay at home dog mama, so your baby will have all my time and attention! Additionally, my husband has a flexible schedule, so that’s double the love your baby (or babies) will receive! 💕🐶 My husband, pup, and I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex. We have a lanai where we have fresh sod that dogs can use for going potty any time they need in addition to their daily walks! Dogs are allowed on our furniture and our bed - everywhere! I am very flexible and can adapt to whatever your dog’s needs are.
About: Caring for animals isn't just a job for me, it's a genuine lifelong passion that began in my childhood. As soon as I was old enough to volunteer at the humane society my father and I would go to help out on our free time. It wasn't just a job, it was a formative experience where I learned the importance of compassionate care and responsible pet ownership. I have a diverse experience from the delicate needs of fish and birds to the unique requirements of guinea pigs, bunnies, turtles and chameleons, in addition to cats and dogs. I understand that each animal is an individual, and I'm committed to providing personalized care that caters to their specific needs, ensuring their well being and happiness. Since I'm working from home, your pet will benefit from consistent attention and care. I'm available throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, and of course, plenty of cuddles! I can easily accommodate your pet's specific needs and routines. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family! I provide a safe and fun environment with plenty of opportunities for playtime, socialization (if appropriate and with your consent), and relaxation. My home is thoroughly pet-proofed. I carefully monitor each pet's behavior and make sure to meet their individual needs. I also prioritize hygiene, with regular cleaning and disinfecting of pet areas. I'm committed to creating a home away from home experience where your pet feels secure and loved.

“Third time booking with Joshua and cannot recommend him enough! He takes such good care of my pets. Super communicative and respectful. And not to say I can promise this for every client, but he does more than just walk my dog, he hangs out and plays with him (and my cat) too, which is always above and beyond expectations. Great to work with and would rebook him anytime. Default and primary choice 💯. Highly recommend!”
“Nicole was fantastic! She bonded with our dog right away and put us and him at ease. She’s been easy to work with and takes special care of our pet, all you can ask of someone coming to your home to take care of your pet. Highly recommend Nicole !”
About: Having the opportunity of sitting pets in their own place makes a difference in their adaptation while someone new takes care of them. sometimes is easier for puppies or older pets to adjust when they are somewhere they already know. I enjoy sleeping, playing, cuddling or just share space with them. Also i find interesting the way you can stimulate them with games or new activities I am a student at Chaminade university and take my classes in the mornings. Staying with them is better for me so my free time i can dedicate it to them. I been a dogsitter and nanny for about 5 years now and I love what I do!! I’m a very responsible person, with experience in house sitting, so take care of your pet in your home is not only about their care but the responsibility and the opportunity of a new place. I can send daily updates and always have emergency contacts to communicate if there was any irregularities. I will go over your specific needs and theirs as well
“Jason is great! My little dogs don’t warm quickly to people. They love Jason, and they comfortably allow him to harness them. I have total trust in Jason to take good care for my four legged babies.”
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.
“Kylie was extremely sweet and punctual (we met at the dog park). I needed help with taking Olive to the park due to a mild knee injury. Kylie was ready to help supervise Olive, who is still young and needs breaks during play to encourage good manners. Kylie would throw the ball and distract Olive as needed so she could engage in calmer play with other dogs. Kylie obviously likes animals and was warm to Olive who is a messy water drinking and likes to play with wet dirt cover tennis balls at the park.”
About: I’ve taken care of an 11 year old fur baby till her last breath and I am very patient with all the animals! I really don’t have special skills other than playing the ukulele for them and spending quality time :) Aloha! My name is Kapono. I am a huge dog lover who enjoys spending time with fur babies of all ages and personalities. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just extra attention, I’m here to make sure they have a fun, safe, and a happy time! I recently graduated from Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA and I have returned back home. I am a dog owner myself. I have a 9-year-old Fox Terrier Mix and my previous dog that I owned I took care of until she passed away at 15. I am patient, committed to keeping pet owners updated with photos and communication, and really enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality :)! I have a fenced yard with a grass area where dogs can explore around and/or use the potty. My house is ac so if needed, keep them cool :)!
“Mya was wonderful! Tonight was a big event for us with a very busy schedule and we wanted our little girl to enjoy her say as well and not miss her evening time outside….it is a ritual for us. Mya was on time, sweet as can be and immediately had a great connection with Penelope. You can see Mya truly loves animals. I could tell right away Penelope was in great hands. My baby came back from her outing with a smile and pep in her step. I would HIGHLY recommend Mya and will definitely be using her services again as we are in the area a few times a year.”
About: I bring hands-on experience and a genuine passion for animal care. Back in Arizona, I’ve cared for my own 4 dogs and 2 cats since I was ten, giving me years of firsthand knowledge about different breeds, temperaments, and needs. Additionally, I spent three months as a live-in volunteer for an animal rescue and have worked briefly at a shelter, further expanding my expertise in handling animals with diverse personalities and care requirements. Whether it’s training puppies, providing extra attention to senior pets, or managing unique behavioral traits, I’m confident in my ability to ensure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m currently a student at the University of Hawaii, which gives me a flexible schedule during the week and weekends. Being an active person, I love walking, running, and hiking—so if you have an energetic dog, I’d be thrilled to help keep them active and happy. Pet care naturally fits into my routine, as I enjoy spending time outdoors and staying busy, making it easy to give your pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I prioritize the safety and well-being of pets by following all care instructions, ensuring secure environments, and staying alert to any health concerns. I respect your home, maintain confidentiality, and provide reliable, professional service. By creating a calm and positive atmosphere, I ensure pets feel happy and cared for in your absence.
About: I’ve always had an interest with animals. Growing up my parents never wanted pets in fear that we ‘wouldn’t take care of it’ but I assured that every time I would and when they finally listened that’s what I did. I always took care of our dog. Trained him, feed him, took him out, and cleaned up after him and even payed for veterinary visits like it was my only purpose. It comes very naturally it’s apart of my daily routine. I would be able to take care of your pet on days I’m off all day and from morning to early afternoon while working. I would definitely ask about your pet and make sure to get to know your pet best in order to care for them the best I can. I would make sure they’re comfortable and I am able to help them with what they need. Playtime, walks, food, snacks, etc.
About: From sneaking in strays as a kid and providing food, shelter, and love for them like they were my own to working alongside military working dogs during my time in service, showing our furry four legged friends that they matter has always been important to me. I am currently available M-F 7 AM-7PM for scheduled walks, house sitting, and even a chauffeur for things such as grooming appointments that just don’t work with your busy schedule. Whatever your furry friend needs, I will provide! Special diet, no problem! Medications or exercise regiments, I’ve got you covered! Showers of nose boops and extra belly rubs, is basically a package deal with me! Pets should be treated as family, and that’s exactly what I plan to do every time, with love!
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and intention I bring to each visit. I don’t rush through walks or treat them as routine tasks—I make sure your dog gets real engagement, structure, and positive interaction every time. 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. Overall, my flexibility lets me prioritize each pet’s routine and well-being while making sure owners can count on dependable, stress-free support. 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: 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!
“Malia was professional, punctual and communicative throughout the process. Highly recommend her! We’ll certainly be using her services again! Thank you Malia for caring for our dog, Rio.”

Every dog will be treated like they’re my own.
About: I have been around animals my whole life. Ever since I was born there has not been a time where a dog was not considered part of the family. I am experienced with reptiles owning tortoises(turtles) both land and wet(swimming) kind. I have bred and raised Jackson chameleons and had one frog. For dogs I have done both group training as well as one on one personalized training for dogs passed puppy stage. After an injury and a period of hospitalization I saw how instrumental pet therapy is to patients recovering and the difference they make when going through painful treatments first hand. After re-learning and regaining my ability to walk took it upon myself to train and certify…i with my own emotional support and therapy dog,(Floyd) who i trained personally. He has gone through all basic obedience training in St. Louis, Missouri as well as defensive training. He has also achieved his k9 good citizen ship and has his “love on leashes” qualification which basically allows us to visit hospitals and meet with patients. Floyd is a 125 pound tall black floppy eared loving Doberman who couldn’t hurt a fly, infact he’s actually afraid of them. He is well traveled and the best mannered dog I have ever trained and owned. I adopted him from the St. Louis human society in Missouri where he was found wondering the hi-way. He was just under a year old and was malnourished with a stomach problem. Since then he has been all over on adventures with me, He has flown more then 5 times on a plane and was even invited to the cockpit by the pilot for a picture, Weather its riding the train to Chicago, swimming in the asabo river in Michigan or playing in the snow at Times Square Floyd is always down. To me he embodies and proves the saying that dog is truly mans best friend. He has saved my life and touched so many others while visiting patients giving back and volunteering. My schedule is very flexible, and I have full control over how I plan my days. Most of my work and obligations are scheduled ahead of time, which allows me to build my routine around each pet’s needs. When I accept a booking, I make sure I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Your pet’s routine, comfort, feeding schedule, walks, and care instructions will always be my priority I create a calm, clean, and secure environment for every pet I care for. I pay close attention to each pet’s body language, personality, and routine so I can help them feel comfortable and safe. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication needs, walks, litter box cleaning, and house rules. I’m also very mindful about doors, gates, leashes, and anything that could become a safety issue. My goal is to care for your pet with the same patience, respect, and attention I would want for my own.

About: I’ve grown up with cats since I was 4 years old and was responsible for all of their needs - feeding, brushing, nail clipping, litter cleaning, and of course playing and cuddling. I cared for them through their old age providing medication, physical therapy exercises, and inserting IV drips. I’ve also been my friends’ dog sitter (funcle) over the past 6 years, giving them all the walks, pets, attention, and playtime they need while their parents are away. I currently work full-time from home and can give all the attention to your pets’ throughout the work hours of the weekdays! I like to be active after work and weekends, and can take your pups out for runs or hikes, or we could lounge and chill if that’s what they need. I live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood that’s pet friendly. We have no pets at home right now so I’ll be around to give full attention to your pet!
“Absolutely professional and kind sitter. Miki was in contact with us every step of the way and we never once worried about our little Wilbur. She shared many pictures. She came through for us on a short notice and spent her time during a meet and greet to make sure we knew he was in good hands. Miki spoiled Wilbur with multiple walks and treated him like her own fur kid during daily errands. We are so grateful to have found Miki! We highly recommended her to take care of your fur kids. Thanks Miki and family.”
