“"Johenid was amazing! Leaving my cat in a new place is always stressful, but her home was a total cat paradise—safe, quiet, and very welcoming. She gave my cat time to adjust and sent photos of him everyday. I could tell he felt right at home. Drop-off and pick-up were incredibly smooth. I will absolutely board him here again!"”

“First time using Rover and so glad we found Joel! He took great care of our dog Naia, even while she had an unexpected injury. It meant a lot to know that she was in good hands while we were gone, and seems like she had a great time. Mahalo Joel!”

“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!”

“Here’s a warm and appreciative Rover review you can post for Daylin: Daylin did an amazing job taking care of my dog while I was away! She made sure to walk and feed her on schedule and kept me updated every day with pictures. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was well taken care of and getting the attention she needed. I really appreciate how responsible, caring, and attentive Daylin was. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pet!”

“A beautiful naturalistic place for our Foxy was greatly appreciated. Foxy rarely has the chance to explore freely as dogs should. Greg’s place provides such a fun environment. Greg and Zephyr took care of our Foxy, she will return again for a longer stay. Thank you Greg and family!”

“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.”

“Thank you Yiye and family for always taking care of my boy. You were so understanding and accommodating even with my canceled flight and the stress I was going through Mahalo!”


“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.”

“Our fur baby had an adventurous stay with McKenley with her pug cause they went on a hike and walks not all sitters do that. We are greatful that we chose her to watch after our fur baby. Thank you!”


“We had a great experience with Karsyn and her husband! We have an elderly dog and I'm typically very wary about leaving her with anyone, but I never had any worries during her stay. They sent regular photos and updates, and it was clear our dog was happy and well cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again!”

“Bambi loved his stay! She was attentive and gave me updates with photos daily. I could tell he was in great hands with Rieko and her family. Bambi played along really well with her daughter and other dogs. We will definitely use her services again!”

“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!”

“Koa had a great time staying with Jacque! He made lots of friend and had a blast running around the yard😆 (Jacque sent us pictures&videos of Koa everyday🐶) Thank you so much for taking good care of him🙏💕”

“Miho walked our pup every morning and evening. She sent pictures and updates daily. I know that our fur baby was in good hands while we were away! I would highly recommend Miho!”

“Great pawsitters! My furbabies had an excellent time with them and their furbabies. The daily updates with lots of photos gave me peace of mind that my doggies were in good hands while I was away. I am happy to have found a new sitter and will be booking with them the next time I go out of town.”

“Emma is an excellent doggie sitter! She's caring - to the dog owners and doggies, great at sharing how the doggies are doing - pictures and videos, and very patient. Definitely will be our regular sitter and highly recommend.”


“This being our first time leaving our 2 young dogs at a first time sitter we were nervous, but after being invited to tour Tracey's home and talking with her family we felt her home was full of love for all pets that came over toys, bedding nice outdoor run area and very clean. Every day of our trip away we were sent pics of our boys interacting and looking very happy at camp, we will definitely use Tracey's home for future boarding.”

“Best sitter I could have ever asked for. I received pictures and updates on CJ the entire time. Stacey provided the care and attention my dog needed. Will always look to use her first anytime we may be away. Thank you Stacey!! ❤️?”


“The way Brianda opens up her home is something special. Seeing our pup snuggle with them & the bestie relationship she has with Brianda’s daughter is more than we could ever expect. She has switched a very anxious situation for our pup (who has separation anxiety) into an enjoyable experience. It’s also great that my antisocial pup gets socialization with other pups in her care. The frequency of photos is really reassuring and very much appreciated. Highly recommend!”

“Jessica is so great to work with and very flexible, even doing a last minute daycare swap when I accidentally booked the wrong dates. My senior girl Dolly has been to daycare with Jessica's family a few times so far and is loving it!”

“Truffles loved his time with Arianna and family. Lots of great fun with zoomies in the park, walks, and resting snuggles with the family. Truffles had a great time, with lots of photo/videos of his fun time. Highly recommend.”

About: Hello Pet Parents! My name’s Samantha, currently I am a single mom to 1 toddler and also a dog-mama to my Shih Tzu pup, Chico! 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 as well. 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 Chico 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.
“Glad we found Niome! This is Teddy's first time at a sitter so we were a little nervous, but we were sent videos and pictures throughout his stay and he looked like he had a blast. Thank you 😊”


“Thank you for providing excellent day-care for Emi. She was excited when dropped off and not so excited when picked up! She loves the company of other dogs so we're sure she had a great time. Thanks again!”

“Truffles always has fun with Lily & family. They take such great care of him, filling the afternoon with lots of fun activities and play, with many pictures to show all the fun he is having.”


About: My husband and I have always cared for and owned dogs, but we currently don’t have one and are missing our fur friends! I recently moved from England to Hawaii to join my husband here for work, and before welcoming a dog of our own, we’d love to spend time caring for yours! I will be the primary caregiver, as I work fully from home. Back in England, I looked after my mom’s dog almost every day for the past six years whenever I wasn’t working at the hospital, as I worked from home a lot too. I also regularly cared for friends’ and family’s dogs for overnight stays, weekends and holidays. In fact, I became the go-to dog sitter in our little English village! As a healthcare professional, I understand the importance of responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail. Caring for others has always been at the heart of what I do, and I bring that same level of patience, compassion, and commitment to every dog I care for. We know that every dog has their own unique personality and routine, and we’ll make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and so very loved while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, we’ll care for them as if they were our own! I (Carmen) will be the primary caregiver, with Cam (husband) home in the evenings for cuddles and post-dinner beach walks with us. I currently work from home, part-time as a UK-registered Dietitian. I’d love a fur colleague to keep me company! I walk, run or swim at the beach every morning or lunchtime and evenings too, and Kalama Beach is only a 10 minute walk from our house. My husband who is as pup-obsessed as me works with the military (he’s a ex-marine officer) so he’s not around as much but he would absolutely love doggy kisses to welcome him home after work. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are our top priorities. We have a large shared yard that is fully enclosed, with two access points that we securely block off whenever a dog is outside, so they can enjoy the space safely under our supervision. We share the yard with three lovely neighboring couples who are also dog lovers, creating a friendly and welcoming environment. Our home is a spacious two-story, three-bedroom house with plenty of room for your pup to relax. After beach adventures or muddy walks, we even have two bathtub showers ready for rinsing off sandy paws and giving your dog a little spa treatment! We’ll follow your dog’s usual routine, provide lots of love and attention, and ensure they’re always supervised and cared for as if they were our own.
“Eylul is so kind and attentive to our dog Benny! She communicates quickly and clearly and was very helpful. Most of the time when Benny stays somewhere he gets stressed and nervous, but not with Eylul - he was just happy and looked so comfortable. I will absolutely book with Eylul again!”

“Nichole did an amazing job caring for my pup!! He fit in great with their family and dogs, and I appreciated the photos and updates throughout his stay. Nichole is so sweet and will treat your fur-baby as part of the family, which was an important thing for us looking for a sitter. Would recommend and will also be booking again! Thank you!!!”

“Gigi was very comfortable with Lauren and her son. She sent me a few pictures, two of which were of Gigi sitting next to Lauren with her head in her lap. We will definitely bring Gigi to Lauren again.”

“Katharine and Daniel took wonderful care of my fur baby! I needed a sitter on short notice and they really helped me out! I will definitely be booking with them again.”


“Makayla was very patient with my Labrador puppy despite a hectic drop off. My puppy was anxiously barking, jumping & whining. Makayla did a great job comforting her, took her on several walks and to the dog park to play fetch. I know my puppy can be a handful, so I’m extremely grateful that doggy day care went so well! I would hire Makayla again.”

“I never used Rover before and I am a helicopter dog mom but Haily made me feel comfortable. I love the video and pictures that i get throughout the day she’s with him. Milo (my puppy) absolutely loves going to doggy daycare with her.”

“Keyshla has gone above and beyond for our fur babies! We are very thankful for the care she provides and we know our dogs are always safe when we drop them off to her. Thank you so much Keyshla!”

“Christine provided Excellent care of our two older dogs. She provided frequent updates and adapted to their different styles and needs. She went the extra mile by giving them a bath and expressing their glands on the last day.”

“Regis and his family was great with my young pup Nobu. Nobu has never been away from me for 16 months. They ensured a safe and comfortable environment for him with day to day updates. He ensured that my pup was taken cared of. Nobu is an anxious pup being never separated from me but Annikan and Frito Lay welcomed him intro there home and showed him love. I highly recommend Regis for your pups care. His family is loving and friendly and I assure you your pup will have a great stay with them. Thanks again Regis and family!”

“Pei has a way with dogs. My dog, Friday, took a liking to him right away. Friday spent two weeks with Pei and got plenty of attention and exercise. When we picked him up he was happy and healthy as ever. No hesitations about leaving Friday with Pei again in the future.”

About: I petsit frequently for family, friends and neighbors for weeks at a time in my home and their homes. I have years of experience around all kinds of different animals. I understand different personalities in pets and can work around them. I stay at home with my two kids, who love animals. My schedule is always open so I am able to follow a unique routine. I have a large fenced in yard with plenty of toys, energetic kids and two cats. One cat likes to play outside while the other stays inside. I have rooms set up in my home for animals who prefer to be by themselves.
“Huge shout out and thank you to Paige and her Husband for taking care of our girl! Sent us regular pics and video updates to show us how our girl was doing. At the end Hina seemed so happy and was even given a bath cause she is smelling great! 5/5 highly recommend Paige again for excellent work!”

“We are so happy we found Lauren and Dale! They took such great care of our dog Bamba when we went off island. It was a last minute booking and they were so accommodating. They sent so many wonderful photos of Bamba with new friends and even took her on a hiking adventure! We can’t recommend them enough!”

“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!”

“Malia is awesome! Rooty needs to be boarded for almost 2 weeks for an upcoming trip. To help prepare him for it, we had Malia watch him for about 6 hours. By the looks and sounds of it, he had a great time! We loved her updates and pictures that captured every phase of his visit - from playing in the yard, to walking, to chilling on the couch. She treated him like one of her own, and we're excited to see how he does on his one night overnight stay!”

“We are soo impressed! Robert really came through for us when we needed a last minute sitter on very, very short notice! He was great with our little dog and sent us photos/videos daily. Communication was awesome and he’s just so nice to work with. That was really relieving and we knew he was in great hands and happy. I think our dog was looking for Robert after we took him home lol! This is the kind of sitter you’ll be at ease leaving your dog with!”

“Zoe has been an exceptional sitter for our, Layla. She kept in communication with me the whole time we were gone and she even let us add 2 more days for our vacation. Will definitely be using her again! Thanks Zoe!”

“Lily was super communicative the entire time and sent me very cute daily videos/photos! This was our first time boarding so i was actually really worried but Champ lovedddd Ranger and Riley and had such a great time, he came home so tired and happy. I wouldn't hesitate to try rebook next time we need a babysitter (: thank you so much lily!”
