“Wanda & Lonnie were nice and welcoming! They have nice property and big yard. It’s easy to get in touch, and I get quick replies. They also send plenty of photos. I was able to leave Lucky in their care with peace of mind.”

“Carrie & Jonathan take care of her and updated me. Carrie was very flexible and willing to accept her my request when my plans was changed. I appreciate it your willingness, and I am grateful for your support and care of my dog.”

“My dog June, had a wonderful stay with Randi and we will board her here again in the future. June likes lots of attention and she got it here :) Randi was very professional and kept us posted with photos/videos of June throughout our trip. June was also in great spirits when we picked her up. I would recommend Randi to our friends for their pets without any hesitation.”

“My little dog, Buddy, had a marvelous time with Leah. Leah provided great communication and kept me updated while I was traveling. Buddy made a new friend in Marley. We would absolutely use Leah again!”

“Madison did super great with our dog! She was very communicative and sent pictures throughout the boarding process. It was comforting to know our pup was well taken care of and we came home to a happy dog!”

“Sachi had a wonderful stay with Casey. Casey is an excellent dog sitter and I would highly recommend him. Shortly after our “meet and greet” visit, we returned Sachi for an overnight stay and as soon as we parked the car Sachi could hardly wait to run to Casey’s front door! Thank you, Casey, for taking good care of Sachi.”

“Yen took such wonderful care of our pup, Blue, while we were on vacation! She kept us updated with lots of pictures, and it was clear that Blue was happy, comfortable, and well loved. We came home to a calm, content dog, a true sign he was in good hands. Highly recommend Yen and would absolutely book with her again!”

“Amazing! We have never left our two dogs in boarding before. They have a complicated diet and they believe that they are a part of the family. Shanelle (husband &children) took them into their home and loved them as if they were their own! Rides in the car, walks with other dogs...sleeping on pillows… under blankets haha. There just isn’t anyway to express this much gratitude. What a BLESSING 💕”

“Bridget and her family were excellent caretakers for my dog Rhino! They are such a nice family and have a great yard for the animals to explore. Bridget sent frequent updates and photos which was nice.”

“Dee has been wonderful for my newly adopted dog. My wife and I are very happy with Dee's care and kindness. As new doggy parents, I was relieved that I made the perfect choice for Kailani, while I was away. Kailani enjoyed walks on the beach and visiting the dog park. I enjoyed receiving cute pictures sent to my phone as well. We plan to use Dee again for sure.”

“I’d recommend Johnathan! He’s like a dog whisperer. Mika always has issues with new sitters and I was a bit worried at first she kept barking non stop as usual but after a while she settled in but still barked several times. Lacey was no problem she’s always mellow and friendly. Mika in the other hand is very defensive but Johnathan took them in with short time spent with Johnathan Mika barely barked going home after the meet and greet. Then back at it when I dropped them off-when I picked them up Mika made a good connection with Johnathan and she didn’t even bark in my car just crying a bit but no barking she didn’t even want to get out of my car to go inside our home! Amazing improvement!! I’d go to Johnathan for my dogs anytime and highly recommend him as well got updated a few times in the day to keep me updated on how they’re doing. Johnathan is the new dog whisper on Maui!! Love it!!!! Thanks a million!!😊😊😊😊”

“Rochelle is amazing! My dog has anxiety so I can tell when he is comfortable and has a good time, and he was very happy being with her. She only takes small dogs so this was also a plus as Chewie is nervous around big dogs, especially as he was attacked by a larger dog in the past. I will certainly use her again. She is a gem!”

“Wish I could give more than 5 stars! Kule was so well taken care of! Jo and Tame treated our baby like their own and absolutely showered her in love. Kule unexpectedly went into heat during her stay and I felt so bad but they took care of her and went out of their way to make her feel comfortable. They always sent pictures and videos of her on her walks and was very communicative during the whole 3.5 weeks. I will totally stay in touch with them and even meet up at the dog park for the pups to play. It’s hard trusting people with our fur babies while we are away but I 100% recommend them to everyone and will use them if ever we are off island again.”


“Omgggg I can’t say enough. ?????? I was nervous to leave Markus while I went away out of town. I dropped him off w/ Eric and Nancy & immediately I started getting pictures of Markus from his stay with Eric & Nancy. So nice to hear daily updates & feel Iike I knew how he was and what he was up to. I would totally book with them again. So so grateful I have a place for Markus in Maui.”
“Farah was a life saver for us. We had a family emergency and she went above and beyond taking care of our dog. Farah took our dog a week early and dealt with some destructive behaviors with such grace and care. She waked her on beautiful hikes, handled meds and food allergies. We feel so grateful for Farah!!”

About: Hi there! We’re a family of animal lovers and would be thrilled to care for your pets. We have one small dog of our own, a 10 year old Shiba Inu, who is very chill and gets along great with other dogs! Both my husband and I have had dogs our entire lives and have plenty of experience caring for them. My husband is known in our family as the “dog whisperer.” We have family on the mainland and travel back a couple of times a year, so we understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets while you’re away. Whether you need daily drop-in visits or boarding while you’re off island, your pets will be treated like part of our family and will be in loving hands. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule. We’re an active family and would love to include your dog in our daily outings when appropriate. We live in Kihei near a dog park and the beach and spend plenty of time outdoors. Because we have two young children and a small dog in our home, boarding is best suited for dogs that are friendly and comfortable around both children and other dogs. We’re also more than happy to provide drop-in visits! However you would like your pet to be cared for; walks, fetch, feedings, scratches, cuddles or simply some company while you’re away, we’re here for it!
“This was like Disneyland for my dog. I could tell he was super happy and playful when I picked him up. Communication is always prompt and I would def bring my dog back here again. Very professional and has tons of space to run around. Thanks again for watching Moo!!!!”

About: I've been an animal lover my whole life, caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. Living a plant-based lifestyle, I bring the same compassion to pets as I do to all animals. I'm available most of everyday, except if I have an appointment. I'll keep your pet healthy, happy, and loved. I treat your pet like my own! Let's connect! I'm available full-time, working remote so I'm always home with the pets. I'll have plenty of time to play, walks, and snug cuddles. I have a fenced yard, so pets can play safely outdoors. Since my dog's currently staying with my sister, your pet will get my full focus. I'll give them all the love and attention they deserve.
About: I have extensive experience in dog training and care as my Dad’s business was in rehabilitation, training and boarding for dogs. I worked as an employee for 5 years and also had opportunities to help train and care for the dogs from 12 years old. I love learning more every time I interact with a new dog. I am skilled at training dogs to get over leash aggression and constant pulling. I have worked with many different breeds of dogs and have learned a lot about how this can alter their specific needs. I have a part time job where I’m busy on Wednesdays and Fridays. Otherwise I am available to enjoy time with your doggo all day. I live on a large property with lots of fun things to smell and explore! It isn’t fenced, I intend to keep your dog close with a leash unless you feel they aren’t likely to try and run away.

“Casey was absolutely amazing with Goku! He treated him like her own, gave him so much love and attention, and kept me updated with the sweetest photos. I could tell he felt safe and happy the whole time. Truly five-star care — I’d trust Casey with Goku any day!”


“Kiaya took great care of our cat, Merlin. We have specific instructions about coming and going from our house (to keep him from escaping) and Kiaya was super respectful and attentive to them, and played/snuggled well with him every day, which is huge for us. Felt very comforted & comfortable having her take care of our little guy while we were away!”

“Dyllyn stopped in to check in on our cats while we were on vacation and she was wonderful! Super responsive and very friendly, we will absolutely be using her services again!”

“Wonderful pet sitter, open communications, great photos of the fur babies, and would highly recommend. Took great care of my senior boys (cats) that require medication and made a trip to scheduled vet visit. Will definitely call on again when needed. Thank you so much!!”


“Tag was a great addition to our fur family. We came home and the kitties were chilled out, well loves and well fed & watered . She was very prompt, respectful and responsive. Regular photos kept us updated. Thank you Tag for taking care of our boys and house. We hope to see you again soon. We highly recommend.”
About: I have been a pet sitter and walker since I was 13. I was known as the neighborhood dog walker whenever someone went on vacation or needed an extra hand. I am currently unemployed and will be on Maui for the summer so I am very flexible and can help whenever it is needed or however it is needed! I have a nice grassy backyard in my condo building and a pet friendly condo that can meet any pet owners needs and happy to help!
“Rachael always cares my cat Lola like her own. I can leave her behind with no worries. Most importantly Lola is happy to be able to stay at home even while I am not there. I can not thank enough.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have an awesome 5 year old cattahoula mix who loves to make friends! We live at the back of Iao Valley, right next to the stream and have a beautiful fenced in half acre for the dogs to run around on. I work from home so will be w pup all day! They have free range to be inside or outside whenever they want. Lots of attention and love. I have a huge fenced in yard. Dogs have their own door that is always open for them to come in and out. Lots to explore and sniff!
“Megan was SO awesome!! I was in a huge bind trying to find someone to help out for a hospital stay, and had no advance notice. I joined Rover in a panic! Megan responded to my Rover request right away, and made time to get the key (in one direction on the island), and then head back to help the stranded pups (in the other direction) all within HOURS!!! She came up with creative ideas on her own (that she ran by me) to help out in this unique situation. She really was a lifesaver, and was an EXCELLENT communicator the entire time. She really went above and beyond, and I am SO grateful! I would definitely recommend her!!”
About: I’ve lived with and cared for pets all my life. Most of my experience is with dogs and cats. I’d love to meet your fur babies and help while you’re away! I’m a stay at home mom looking to fill some of my free time I’m pretty flexible but mornings and early afternoons are best for me. Im happy to help with walks, food and water. Litter boxes and pet clean up. I can also help care for plants and other small tasks.

“Wow. We felt confident and happy with all Alexandra did for our family when we were out if town. She was accommodating and we LOVED getting the updates and pictures! Highly recommend her and will definitely be hiring her again.”

About: Hi! I’m Rae! Ever since my dad handed me my first Boston Terrier when I was a little girl, my heart has belonged to the animals. I was lucky enough to grow up in a household with pets, and as an adult I couldn’t imagine not having pets. I also recognize that even though we wish we could take our furbabies everywhere, it’s just not a reality for a lot of us. So, I’m happy to be able to ease the worry of wanting or needing to travel, work, etc by offering to take care of your babies while you’re away. I’ve also traveled to help take care of pets while they’re pawrents were away, tending to both their pets and home. Currently I have a lot of open availability. I prefer to be able to come to your house as I have two pups and three kitties in my home, and I know a pet is usually more comfortable in their own environment. The less that has to change for pets, the better so they don’t have to experience the stress of a new place or dog boarding. So I’m happy to provide potty breaks, walkies, play time, and in home sitting if needed. With direction from you, I’m happy to follow guidelines that you have set up for your pets in your home from their daily routine, to walks etc.

“Leilani did great with Pebbles and her little kittens. They all grew closer to her each day and looked forward to seeing her in the mornings and nights. Leilani prepared their meals - all separately from kittens to mama Pebbles, washed all their feeding and water bowls when they were done and even cleaned out their litter box each day. She showed up on time and send me photos of Pebbles and the kittens twice a day. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Leilani and look forward to having her watch Pebbles and the kittens again.”

About: I grew up with a big yellow lab who was my parent’s “first child” that I learned to care for from a young age, he was my best friend! I started pet sitting for neighbors and friends when I was 10, and would take their dogs on walks every week as well as take care of their fur babies in my house when they were away. I have experience with pet sitting dogs and cats of all ages and sizes, and I love all animals including reptiles! I also have experience with goats and horses, no animal is too big or small. :) My partner, Kacy, also has a Rover profile and we often tag team when she house sits since I work from home. We share a car, so when I house sit she will come by if I need to go somewhere. We always respect the privacy and boundaries of our clients, and want to ensure you are comfortable meeting both of us and having her come by and visit. I’m currently working from home part time, so my schedule is super flexible as I can work from anywhere. :) I’m available all days of the week. I am available to care for your pets in the comfort and safety of their own home. Due to my flexible schedule, I have the time to travel to you and walk dogs or house sit, making it a stress-free experience for you and your pets.

About: From puppies to seniors, we've cared for and loved them all. Jack Russels, Chihuahuas and all the mixes. We at one time had 3 little ones in our lives cause we couldn't watch the one sweet chihuahua that belonged to our friend go back to the pound when he didn't quite fit in well with their kids. We took him home to find him a home and we sure did! 13 years of his little life wasn't enough time. Love fostering with Maui Humane when we can, hard to say goodbye but worth it to make their life just a little better for a bit. I work part time from home so I'm usually around to play or snuggle with your pup. We are mostly home bodies so even on the weekend your pup won't be lonely. We have a friendly (for a chihuahua lol) 4 year old Chihuahua that is always looking for playmates! We have an outside space where they can run that energy off too and live close to the beach! So if the paw parents approve we're happy to enjoy nightly sunsets or early morning beach walks while it's not too hot. During the day they can lounge or play in the house or choose to lay in the sun on our fenced front lanai. Special diets don't intimidate me. Ours is a picky eater so I understand the need to mix up the meals every once in a while.
“Wanda and Lonnie are a lifesaver! Their home is lovely, and they are so sweet with dogs. My dog has been suffering with short term separation anxiety and having their home available to dogsit and board has been so so helpful. The property has plenty of space for the pups to roam around, and they have even sent photos and videos of how my dog has responded to being left with them. When I come to collect him he always wants to stay and is always exhausted when he gets home because he has had so much fun during his day. You can tell they love dogs and have a long history of working with them.”

“Buttercup had a great time! Thanks for being so kind, conscientious, and professional. We will definitely be back, your house and yard are a perfect setup and communication was amazing! Five star experience 🤩”

About: I’ve been a dog lover since my first puppy, Zeus. I had him and grew up with him for ten years of my life and now I am blessed with another puppy, Koda. I’ve always had a soft spot for dogs and show the most attentive care for them. Especially because my Koda has seizures, I’m always home and around. And our loving little town has an amazing dog park for outdoor time. Everyday, koda and I begin our morning with a walk then breakfast. I am always home so he’s glued to my side during the day. We do our thing around the house or on sunny days we head out to the dog park. Afterwards it’s back home and dinner time. I have my fur baby so your loved one will never be alone. I allow pets on furniture and to freely Rome the house. Any outdoor time would be walks around the neighborhood or to the dog park.
About: Aloha! I’ve grown up with pets all my life and I enjoy the joy they bring to my life. I had a pet of my own that I cared for for 15 years. I have a backyard and I am home throughout the entire day. I care for a friend’s dog often, and I like to give the pup the option of indoor or outdoor so that they can walk in and out at their own convenience. I am currently retired so I am regularly home and usually available every day. I typically stay at home throughout the day, so you can rely on me to keep your pet company and cared for! My house is completely fenced so they will not be able to get out. I currently don’t have any pets of my own. I enjoy keeping my sliding door open so that the dogs have the freedom to go in and out of the house at their convenience

“We needed a last minute sitter to watch our dog Milo for a few hours, and Paisley was quick to respond to our request and very communicative! Coordinating pick up and drop off was very easy, and I’d definitely contact Paisley again to watch our dog in the future and recommend her to others looking for a dog sitter as well!”

“Had day 2 today with my pup and she had a great time! Came home and put herself to bed! Thank you so much. They are so kind and you can tell they really care for the dogs they watch.”

“Where to start with?? Christina is beyond wonderful! I texted her on a really short notice and she helped me straight away. She gave Olly so much love and attention. She updated me throughout the whole day and I could see by the photos that Olly and her were having a great time together! It made me so happy to see that she took care of Olly as if he was her own puppy. She is a 11/10!!”

About: I’m a country, animal loving young girl. I’ve spent years caring for farms and ranches or just housesitting with many dogs, cats and much more. I just enjoy soaking up extra time with the critters. I’ve spent time training two of my own dogs and also several others. Experience fostering both cats, kittens and puppies is also something I can offer. It’s so rewarding to watch the dogs learn and grow with training and time. I can take your dog on walks and play with them or just chill with your cat. I currently work 3 days a week on a boat and 1 day as a bartender. Feel free to message me for scheduling and availability. If your pet is ok with me being gone on the boat 12 hrs on a couple days I’m happy to housesit for a length of time. My partner can often times let your pet out to potty on my long work days. Usually just Wednesdays are 12 hr shifts. I like to keep the pets routines as close to what they are use to as possible. Playing with, exercising, feeding and even doing some training are all things I like to incorporate in my daily schedule.

“Madilyn was wonderful. She and Neala really seemed to get along but more than that, we were really busy having a wedding and decided a little late that Neala might be better off away from such a big crowd and stealing food from plates, and Madilyn came to our rescue. Will definitely use her services again.”
“I cannot recommend Michelle and Brain highly enough. I have an older dog with special needs who cannot be left alone and who struggles deeply with separation anxiety. What my dog needs most is a steady, compassionate presence, and that is exactly what they provided. Not long after I dropped my dog off, Michele reached out to let me know that my dog was content, getting along well with her dog, and exploring her new surroundings. That early check-in brought me such a sense of relief. Later, she sent me a photo of my dog resting peacefully in her garden while she gardened nearby, which spoke volumes about how safe and settled my dog felt. Michele was incredibly patient, kind, and genuinely present. She snuggled with my dog on the couch, included her in daily activities (like “helping” in the garden), and it was sweet that she seemed to enjoy my dog’s company. That matters to me more than I can easily express. Having a dog with extra needs can come with a lot of worry about being a burden, and it was sweet to sense that it wasn’t that at all for them. It was also deeply reassuring that they have an older dog themselves. Michele truly understands the rhythms, sensitivities, and nervous systems of senior and special-needs dogs. When I picked my dog up, she was happy to see me and tired in the best way—but most importantly, she was calm and regulated. This tells me everything about the quality of care she received. This kind of support is immensely valuable. I would absolutely recommend Michele and Brian, especially to anyone with an older, anxious, or special-needs dog who needs more than basic sitting. Finding someone like this feels rare, and I would trust them with my dog again without hesitation.”

“Steph is so great with our dog and we trust her absolutely! She is accountable and has a special connection with our Shih-Tzu. We will continue to work with Steph and encourage others to do the same!”

About: I have been around lots of dogs and cats over the years! I like to have fun with them and prioritize treating them with love because they are innately such loving beings. I've pet sat and lived with both young and older animals (cats and dogs), so I understand that each has their own personality and way about them. I know how to respect their space while also encouraging connection, health, and balance. I love taking dogs on walks and to the beach. I enjoy snuggling with cats. I'd be happy to care for your pets when you need the help and will be sure to show them plenty of love! I am currently living between Maui, HI and South Carolina. My routine is currently centered around daily movement, nutrition, and time in nature as I have become very passionate about being healthy and avoiding burnout. I enjoy the variety of spending time with different animals and supporting pet owners as a part of my weekly/monthly routine and feel it’s a healthy, joyful way for me to connect with my community. I am very sensitive and intuitive so I'm good at helping pets feel comfortable and safe in my presence. I'm attentive and present so will be sure to give your pets what they need, when they need it whether that's food, water, play time, snuggles, or a walk outside. I love keeping my space clean and organized so will prioritize keeping your home this way while I'm there providing service.

With direction from you, I’m happy to follow guidelines that you have set up for your pets in your home from their daily routine, to walks etc.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my whole life, so I’m very familiar with caring for animals and understanding their different personalities and needs. I also have a cat named Kiko, who I’ve had since she was a kitten, and I’ve been responsible for her daily care, feeding, grooming, and overall well-being. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My schedule is flexible during weekdays after my morning classes (1pm), and I’m also available during weekends particularly mornings. I’m committed to making time for attentive, reliable pet care and keeping communication consistent with pet owners. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for whether they’re in my home or their own familiar environment. I follow feeding schedules closely, provide fresh water, clean litter boxes or pick up after pets as needed, and spend quality time playing with them and giving them attention. I understand that every pet has different personalities and comfort levels, so I try to be patient, gentle, and attentive to their needs while keeping owners updated.

About: I grew up on a farm raising cattle, chickens, rabbits, cats and dogs, I guess that is where my love for animals began. I have two dogs of my own, wish I had extra space for 2 more or an entire dog sanctuary. I most certainly believe in exceptional care for all animals and have provided services taking care of friends and families furry companions. Your pet will have nothing short of snuggles and love from me!
About: I'm a 40yo female nurse. I've spent my whole life loving and caring for all animals I've come across. Been a responsible pet owner my entire adult life. All of my pets were rescues so I know how to work with difficult personalities. Your fur babies would be top priority! I'm unable to have my own pet where I live so I look forward to sharing my love with yours. I work Monday thru Friday at 8am all over the island. I respect both the owner and the pet's wishes. I allow the animals to be themselves and do what comes naturally to them, within the boundaries you have set.

About: Hi! I’m an experienced pet sitter who has been dog sitting and boarding for returning clients over the past three years. Caring for dogs has become one of my favorite ways to spend my time, and I love getting to know each pup’s unique personality. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or loves attention, I’m comfortable adapting to their individual needs and routine. I have experience caring for dogs with a variety of temperaments and always prioritize making them feel safe, loved, and at home. I’m very active and love being outdoors, so your dog can expect plenty of walks, playtime, exercise, and affection. I live in a pet-friendly apartment and offer both boarding and house sitting. I also have experience with basic training and reinforcing good habits, so I’ll happily stick to your dog’s routine and any instructions you provide. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind while you’re away and make sure your dog has a fun, safe, and loving experience from start to finish. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I am available to care for your pet everyday of the week. I work as a surf instructor 3 days a week (8am–1pm), which leaves me very flexible and home the majority of the time. On work days, I provide early morning walks and care before I leave, plus afternoon/evening walks and attention when I’m back. On my off days, I’m fully available for plenty of walks, playtime, and company. Your dog will always get a consistent routine, lots of exercise, and plenty of love based on their individual needs. Whether in my home or yours, your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. My apartment is dog-friendly, clean, cozy, and smoke-free, with easy access to safe outdoor areas for walks, potty breaks, and exercise. I keep my space tidy and calm so pets feel relaxed and at home right away. For house sitting, I treat your home with the same respect and care as my own.

“Wanda & Lonnie were nice and welcoming! They have nice property and big yard. It’s easy to get in touch, and I get quick replies. They also send plenty of photos. I was able to leave Lucky in their care with peace of mind.”

“Sachi had a wonderful stay with Casey. Casey is an excellent dog sitter and I would highly recommend him. Shortly after our “meet and greet” visit, we returned Sachi for an overnight stay and as soon as we parked the car Sachi could hardly wait to run to Casey’s front door! Thank you, Casey, for taking good care of Sachi.”

“Amazing! We have never left our two dogs in boarding before. They have a complicated diet and they believe that they are a part of the family. Shanelle (husband &children) took them into their home and loved them as if they were their own! Rides in the car, walks with other dogs...sleeping on pillows… under blankets haha. There just isn’t anyway to express this much gratitude. What a BLESSING 💕”

“Bridget and her family were excellent caretakers for my dog Rhino! They are such a nice family and have a great yard for the animals to explore. Bridget sent frequent updates and photos which was nice.”

“Dee has been wonderful for my newly adopted dog. My wife and I are very happy with Dee's care and kindness. As new doggy parents, I was relieved that I made the perfect choice for Kailani, while I was away. Kailani enjoyed walks on the beach and visiting the dog park. I enjoyed receiving cute pictures sent to my phone as well. We plan to use Dee again for sure.”

“I’d recommend Johnathan! He’s like a dog whisperer. Mika always has issues with new sitters and I was a bit worried at first she kept barking non stop as usual but after a while she settled in but still barked several times. Lacey was no problem she’s always mellow and friendly. Mika in the other hand is very defensive but Johnathan took them in with short time spent with Johnathan Mika barely barked going home after the meet and greet. Then back at it when I dropped them off-when I picked them up Mika made a good connection with Johnathan and she didn’t even bark in my car just crying a bit but no barking she didn’t even want to get out of my car to go inside our home! Amazing improvement!! I’d go to Johnathan for my dogs anytime and highly recommend him as well got updated a few times in the day to keep me updated on how they’re doing. Johnathan is the new dog whisper on Maui!! Love it!!!! Thanks a million!!😊😊😊😊”

“Rochelle is amazing! My dog has anxiety so I can tell when he is comfortable and has a good time, and he was very happy being with her. She only takes small dogs so this was also a plus as Chewie is nervous around big dogs, especially as he was attacked by a larger dog in the past. I will certainly use her again. She is a gem!”

“Farah was a life saver for us. We had a family emergency and she went above and beyond taking care of our dog. Farah took our dog a week early and dealt with some destructive behaviors with such grace and care. She waked her on beautiful hikes, handled meds and food allergies. We feel so grateful for Farah!!”

About: Hi there! We’re a family of animal lovers and would be thrilled to care for your pets. We have one small dog of our own, a 10 year old Shiba Inu, who is very chill and gets along great with other dogs! Both my husband and I have had dogs our entire lives and have plenty of experience caring for them. My husband is known in our family as the “dog whisperer.” We have family on the mainland and travel back a couple of times a year, so we understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets while you’re away. Whether you need daily drop-in visits or boarding while you’re off island, your pets will be treated like part of our family and will be in loving hands. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule. We’re an active family and would love to include your dog in our daily outings when appropriate. We live in Kihei near a dog park and the beach and spend plenty of time outdoors. Because we have two young children and a small dog in our home, boarding is best suited for dogs that are friendly and comfortable around both children and other dogs. We’re also more than happy to provide drop-in visits! However you would like your pet to be cared for; walks, fetch, feedings, scratches, cuddles or simply some company while you’re away, we’re here for it!
“This was like Disneyland for my dog. I could tell he was super happy and playful when I picked him up. Communication is always prompt and I would def bring my dog back here again. Very professional and has tons of space to run around. Thanks again for watching Moo!!!!”

About: I've been an animal lover my whole life, caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. Living a plant-based lifestyle, I bring the same compassion to pets as I do to all animals. I'm available most of everyday, except if I have an appointment. I'll keep your pet healthy, happy, and loved. I treat your pet like my own! Let's connect! I'm available full-time, working remote so I'm always home with the pets. I'll have plenty of time to play, walks, and snug cuddles. I have a fenced yard, so pets can play safely outdoors. Since my dog's currently staying with my sister, your pet will get my full focus. I'll give them all the love and attention they deserve.
About: I have extensive experience in dog training and care as my Dad’s business was in rehabilitation, training and boarding for dogs. I worked as an employee for 5 years and also had opportunities to help train and care for the dogs from 12 years old. I love learning more every time I interact with a new dog. I am skilled at training dogs to get over leash aggression and constant pulling. I have worked with many different breeds of dogs and have learned a lot about how this can alter their specific needs. I have a part time job where I’m busy on Wednesdays and Fridays. Otherwise I am available to enjoy time with your doggo all day. I live on a large property with lots of fun things to smell and explore! It isn’t fenced, I intend to keep your dog close with a leash unless you feel they aren’t likely to try and run away.
“Michele & Brian took such wonderful care of our 1.5yr old Kruz, and we’re truly so grateful! He’s a high-energy pup and can definitely be a handful, especially in a new environment with new people and dogs but they handled him with so much patience, structure, and care. They have a beautiful & fenced property — kept him active with daily walks and dog park visits (which he absolutely loved!) and even worked on some training. It was so reassuring to know he was not only being cared for, but also engaged and learning. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We truly appreciate the time, attention, and extra effort they put into caring for him. Thank you both again for keeping up with our energetic boy - you’re amazing ⭐️🤗”


“Madilyn was great! She really connected with our dog well. Her dog and our dog were like twin new best-buddies. But she gave us lots of flexibility, whether ours would stay with her by himself or if her dog would be there. It was perfect. Will definitely use her again. Mahalo.”

About: I’m a country, animal loving young girl. I’ve spent years caring for farms and ranches or just housesitting with many dogs, cats and much more. I just enjoy soaking up extra time with the critters. I’ve spent time training two of my own dogs and also several others. Experience fostering both cats, kittens and puppies is also something I can offer. It’s so rewarding to watch the dogs learn and grow with training and time. I can take your dog on walks and play with them or just chill with your cat. I currently work 3 days a week on a boat and 1 day as a bartender. Feel free to message me for scheduling and availability. If your pet is ok with me being gone on the boat 12 hrs on a couple days I’m happy to housesit for a length of time. My partner can often times let your pet out to potty on my long work days. Usually just Wednesdays are 12 hr shifts. I like to keep the pets routines as close to what they are use to as possible. Playing with, exercising, feeding and even doing some training are all things I like to incorporate in my daily schedule.
