“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.”


“1st time leaving Bailey with sitter. They are the best. She sent pictures every day to put me at ease. Bailey had fun with the other dogs. I will be using them again, and highly recommend their service.***** I'll be back!!!”

“Jessica always makes sure that my puppy was having fun on walks and in her home with her family. My 4 month old German shepherd puppy came back to me so well behaved. I truly appreciate her and her family for taking such good care of my puppy. Thank you.”

“Couldn’t be happier with the care Christine provided for our dogs! She was very detailed, responsive, and sent daily updates with photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were well cared for and loved. Would recommend Christine to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive.”


“Paige is absolutely wonderful, her personality puts you at ease. She took good care of my fur baby and treated her as her own. Really appreciated the daily updates with pictures!!! My first time using Rover, and it was a very positive experience.”

“We couldn’t be happier with Natalia’s care of our fur baby! She took such great care of our golden retriever, gave his medication and provided daily updates including adorable photos and messages which gave us peace of mind while we were away. She even went the extra mile and washed his blanket prior to pickup. Our dog came back happy and clearly well loved. Thank you Natalia. We’ll definitely be booking again:)”

“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!”

“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.”

“Kyrie was a fantastic sitter for our fur baby. She is kind and considerate! She made sure all of our "instructions" were followed and had a nice open yard. It was a perfect environment for pets. Kyrie took the time to send pictures or videos daily and even washed all personal belongings that we brought. They were cleaner than we left them! Our fur baby was clean, healthy and happy and that is the best a dog parent can ask for! Kyrie is the best sitter and I will keep booking her as long as she is available!”

“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 is absolutely fantastic, she is very communicative and always sends photos of my Natsu to keep me updated on how she’s doing. It was great to see how happy Natsu was to be able to have some more space to run around ar Emma’s place. Emma is very thorough and flexible as well, I will definitely rebook her in the future!”

“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!”

“Keeping Rosie with Greg was a great experience! Yard and house had plenty of room for the dogs to sniff, play and hang out. I don't think she wanted to come home!”

“Yiye and her family were absolutely fantastic as our pet sitter! She provided us with tons of pictures, keeping us updated on how Maili doing, which really put our minds at ease. Her communication was excellent throughout, and it was clear she genuinely cared for our dog. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and highly recommend their services!”

“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.”

“Catalina was an amazing pet sitter for my dog klaus. kept me updated everyday and sent me pictures of him. i would give her a 10/5 star review if i could! thank you so much Catalina, and i will choose your services 10/10 times! Mahalo👍”

“Thank you Samantha! She really saved my trip by taking in my lil rescue dog when I had someone last minute cancel. She was great at communicating and was able to attend to my dogs medical needs. Thank you so much Samantha!!! Mahalo”


“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.”

“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: 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.
“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.”

“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!”

About: I've been loving and raising dogs with my family for over 45 years. I'm offering a safe and loving home with a secure fully fenced yard for your dog. I am experienced giving medications both oral and injections. I am CPR/first aid trained and certified for dogs.I can assist with basic puppy behavior training and I'm also very experienced with senior dogs and their special needs.I love dogs! I'm retired from my full time job and and am available to be at home to care for your dog 7 days a week. I am also available for overnight stays. I have a very safe fully fenced yard with lots shade and plenty of sunny grass for dogs to play. My home is puppy/dog safe with lots of places to exercise or rest comfortably.
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’ve been the primary caretaker for my dog for the past 7 years, handling everything from daily walks and feedings to baths and medication. I walk him at least four times a day and try to get in a longer mile-ish walk a few times a week so he can explore at his own pace. I’ve also cared for several friends’ dogs for multi-day stays ranging from a couple of days to over a week. Between that and growing up around pets, I’m very comfortable reading a dog’s personality and routine. My wife has lived with dogs her whole life as well, so our home is very dog friendly. Dogs are welcome on the couch and our own dog sleeps in bed with us. I’ve also done a fair bit of basic training with him. I taught him “wait” (stay), helped him get comfortable with paw cleaning after walks, and even set up a little “dog nest” on the bed that he now uses as his sleeping spot. I’m attentive to routines, meds, and the little details that make pets feel comfortable. I work from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my day. I’m around most of the time and able to give dogs attention, bathroom breaks, and supervision throughout the day. Our normal routine is a morning outing, one in the afternoon, another around 5–6pm, and a final one around 9pm before bed. If a dog needs to go out sooner or starts pawing at the door, I’m always happy to take them out. I try to fit in longer walks when the weather and work schedule allow, usually in the evenings. Because I’m home during the day, pets aren’t left alone for long stretches and get plenty of interaction. I work from home and have a wrap-around fenced yard, so dogs have plenty of safe space to wander and get fresh air. I keep a close eye on them when they’re outside and follow their normal routines as closely as possible. Inside, dogs are welcome to relax and make themselves comfortable. Our home is very dog friendly, and we’re used to having pets around. If a dog needs to be crated for sleeping or while we step out briefly, we do have a crate available. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications, and any specific instructions from owners. I’m also happy to send photos or videos throughout the stay so you can see how your pet is doing.
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.
“You know when Bishop loves his dog sitters when he jumps out of the car and leaves me behind. He loves his Ate Theresa and Uncle Clint. Theresa like many other of the awesome dog angels in the community she has given me a peace of mind while on travel, work or taking care of appointments for my Kupunas. Communication with Theresa has been great and we appreciate some of the last minute changes due to work schedules. Thank you for taking care of our new member to our family.”

I highly recommend Daylin without hesitation.”

About: Aloha, after laying my sweet boy Reggie to rest, I have decided to turn my grief into a positive transformation. I have extensive knowledge caring for senior dogs as well as puppies. I grew up fostering Labrador Retrievers through Labs 4 Rescue. I have plenty of time throughout the day for a morning, afternoon, and evening walk. I love slow morning dog cuddles on the couch, its the perfect way to start the day! My property is fenced and close to the bike path! My large grassy yard is perfect for a game of fetch. I live in a studio in a large house.
“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!”

“I contacted Angie by accident, I was trying to contact someone else. But she immediately made me feel so at ease & welcoming I decided to go with her instead, and I'm so glad I did. She has a great family & I trusted my cat in her care. Her son was so very good with her and she had to have trusted him alot to be comfortable enough to get up on his desk and lie down as if he owns the place. Lol. I'm so glad to have found a sitter I can trust my cat with and not have to worry. I know I'll turn to them again in the future. I'm sure she'll miss Jayce. Thank you so much for loving Kitty!!”

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.
