“Simply wonderful!! Yi, Ta and Irene made our Aussie a part of their family with daily walks and rope tugs while we were off-island for about a week and a half. Having frequent photos and videos of our girl playing, eating, sleeping and whatever else, showed that she had become comfortable with their family and made our trip that much more pleasurable, knowing that she was in good hands! Our pup came back to us well adjusted and happy from the constant attention! We would definitely use Yiye, Ta and Irene again and would recommend their services to others!”

“Christine provided great care to my pampered pet. He bonded with her husband (rather than her dogs) and was his constant shadow. Sending me photos and updates during my trip eased my concerns. When we dropped Bailey off, it was raining and he whimpered as if we were abandoning him. The updates proved my worries were needless.”


“Awesome dog sitter!! Bently enjoyed his time with his new friends away from home. I received pictures daily of his activities. I will be a repeat customer!!!!”

“Our dog, Panda, immediately felt at home under the care of Maddy. We were so happy to see Panda fit right in to her family. Maddy even provided updates and videos/pictures of our dog throughout her stay. Would definitely recommend Maddy to anyone looking for a trusted sitter for their dog. Thank you, Maddy! Until next time.”

“Catalina is amazing!! My dog Booker fell in love with her immediately. Catalina is a true animal lover who took wonderful care of my boy. I will definitely be using her again!”


About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. I’m currently a dog groomer, and I absolutely love my job! I have 2 dogs, Chowder and Rascal (mini Aussies). Although I am located in Waianae, I am willing to drive all over the island. My dog grooming studio is at my house, so I’m home most of the day. When I have multiple boarders I like to rotate them in the yard throughout the day. I have a kiddie pool as well that most dogs enjoy. I have a fenced yard and sturdy gates to keep everyone safe. I typically like to keep boarders from different families separate. If you’re comfortable with your dog being with others dogs, they will only play supervised to avoid any skirmishes. My Aussies are friendly but I only let them socialize if you’re ok with it.

About: Trained with large dogs and no problems with little ones. I’ve cared for cats, birds, reptiles and more. I love taking walks and playing fetch. I also know how to give medications and care for elderly dogs as well. I love animals, especially dogs and appreciate being able to help them. I’m available daily for walks, feeding or check in’s every day of the week. I have a decently sized yard that is totally fenced in, even for little dogs. I have an attached garage as well as numerous baby gates. I have my own vehicle and I’m skilled at caring for others homes as well.
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful! In fact, she's such a great sitter that I almost hesitate to write this review because selfishly, I'd love to keep her availability to myself! This was our very first time leaving our puppy with a sitter, and naturally we were a little nervous. Samantha immediately put our minds at ease. Before our trip, she took the time to meet with us and show us where our puppy would be staying in her home, which made us feel so much more comfortable and confident. While we were away for nearly two weeks, Samantha kept us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos. It meant so much to know our puppy was happy, safe, and well cared for while we were gone. What impressed us even more was that she actually helped reinforce our puppy's potty training during our time away. We came home to a puppy who had continued making progress, which was such a pleasant surprise! Samantha is truly a sweetheart, and it's obvious that she has a genuine love for animals and a heart for what she does. The care, attention, and affection she showed our puppy exceeded all of our expectations. We are so grateful we came across Samantha and couldn't recommend her more highly. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”


“Fantastic sitter, very attentive with my dog. When Sasha got an upset stomach, she made sure to notify me and Rover and ensured she was properly care of. Wonderful dog sitter, would recommend to anyone needing a safe place for their dog to stay for a bit.”

“Rieko was absolutely fantastic, and I would gladly board my dogs with her again. One of my dogs struggles with separation anxiety, so we were quite concerned about leaving her. However, she seemed to have such a wonderful time that we weren't sure if she wanted to come home with us! When I pick up my dogs after a trip, I can always tell how well they were cared for, and both of them were just so happy and in a great mental state. Thank you, Rieko, for taking such excellent care of Juneau and Sitka!”

“Rose and her family was such a blessing, love that she continued to send photos while we were away, and treated Broski as family. Awesome, we are thankful and really appreciate Rose and her family.”

“We had the best experience with our recent booking with Ciara. Our Australian Cattle Dog Kuma loved his daily walks and play time and came back home very well cared for and happy. She is great, very knowledgeable on Dog behaviors and has the sweetest Great Dane. Will definitely book for future trips!”


“Carolina and her family took exceptional care of my baby boy, Vinny, treating him like part of their own family. Their warmth, love, and attention gave me complete peace of mind during an unexpected trip. I highly recommend her and will absolutely trust her with Vinny again in the future. Mahalo!”

“Tanya and her family did a great job with my energetic Aussie! My dog loved all the attention and play time he got at Tanya’s house, and I really appreciated the photos and text updates on my dog’s stay. Theirs is such a caring household that truly loves dogs. I definitely plan on booking with Tanya again in the future.”


“Kate was absolutely amazing. This was my first time leaving my dog with a pet sitter. I had a sitter that cancelled st the last minute and then I found Kate (I could not be happier.) Even though this was last minute Kate took the time to come meet me and my dog. She was wonderful with my dog. I was gone for eight days and I came home to a happy and healthy dog. I would highly recommend. Thank you again. Kate.”

“Our hunny bunny loved his stay with Diana and family. Diana sends updates daily with pictures which made us feel at ease. Will definitely book with her again!!!”

“Robin was great and Gus was well loved and appreciated. Thank you so much! Robin has a wonderful space and yard and Gus loved being able to go hang outside and come in as he pleased. I received a lot of great pictures of Gus being Gus and enjoying his stay.”

“Dagmar was amazing!! I was traveling for a couple of weeks and she came each day to check on my cat. She provided detailed updates that included behavior notes and photos/video, showing that my cat was in very good, kind, cat-loving hands. In fact, I think she was disappointed when I came home instead of another visit by Dagmar. My cat is very shy and it was a shock to see how quickly she warmed up to her (first visit). I had no stress or worries, because she was being well looked after. Definitely recommend to everyone!”

“Synnora did an amazing job checking in on my two pups, Captain and Grizzly! 🐶 She was super reliable, communicative. She not only just let my boys outside in our years, she gave the boys love, treats, and attention. I loved the updates and videos she sent—definitely gave me peace of mind while I was away!! You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. Captain and Grizzly were all tail wags when she came by and when I got home so I know they can’t wait to see her again! Highly recommend Synnora to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and all-around awesome pet sitter!”

“Moana was very content when we arrived home last night. I was so glad the photos Bridget sent us and Moana looked like two connected together 😃🤙🏻 When we planned another trip we will definitely contact Bridget to watch Moana 😃🤙🏻”

“Tatianna is great! She communicates with every visit and sends photos. I trust her fully to take good care of my animals when I’m away. I’d give her 11 stars if I could! She’s the best!”

“Kenzie took great care of my two cats during the holiday week. She even thought to give them a turkey dinner dish for thanksgiving. I came home to happy cats, clean litter boxes, fresh food and water. I will book her again when I go on vacation.”

“Leonard was great! Kept my 3 cats alive and well! Gave me great peace of mind knowing they were well cared for when I went back to the mainland to deal with my mom's care.”

“Yasmeen did an excellent job with my cat while I was away. She kept me well informed of how she was doing with pictures, and updates everyday. She even accepted a booking for an extra day, when I realized I had misbooked my dates. I will definitely try to use her for future needs.”

About: I own two dogs of my own, a terrier named Roscoe and a wiener dog named Dash. If you decide to let me take care of your pet, I guarantee they will receive all the attention and love they deserve. I will feed them, walk them, groom them, and treat them as if they’re my own family. My schedule is flexible and I am willing to work with you to determine what best works for your and your dog/cat. Please feel free to communicate with me on what you think is best for your dog/cat and I will of course respect your wishes, as I understand your animal is a valued and loved member of your family. I hope you choose me to take care of your special, furry family! I do work, but your dog will never be alone for more than three hours at a time, as I’m able to go home frequently during works hours. I have a fenced yard, and two dogs of my own to help keep your dog company. I have plenty of toys and treats to keep your dog entertained for hours.

About: I’ve had cats my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I currently have two of my own, and my family home has six more, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple cats and their unique personalities. I also care for the homeless cats in my area, which has given me experience with shy, anxious, and special-needs cats. In addition, I’ve volunteered over 20 hours with the Humane Society, further strengthening my understanding of feline care and behavior.
About: I have grown up around dogs, both big and small which has taught me so much about how to care for an animal. My dog Benny has become my best friend and I have gotten to learn so much while training and taking care of him. I have been dog sitting and puppy sitting for neighbors and friends the past couple of years, and I quickly learned I love it! I love going on long walks and hikes with Benny and would love to do the same with you dogs! I a just graduated high school and moved in with my aunt for the summer. I am currently available all day for dog walking and drop in visits. I have a fenced-in yard and a 3 year old golden retriever, Benny, who loves playing with dogs of all ages and sizes. I live close to a couple grassy fields, a dog park on the lake, and a dog park for little/older dogs.
About: I’ve cared for pets almost my entire life and have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies who need structure and consistency, as well as older dogs who require patience, gentleness, and a slower pace. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, and any special needs to make sure every pet feels safe and cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, basic training, or simply keeping your pet company, I always treat animals like they’re my own. I’m reliable, calm, and very detail-oriented, which helps pets settle in quickly. I take the time to understand each animal’s temperament so they feel comfortable and supported. I’m experienced with puppy basics like crate training, leash manners, and reinforcing good habits. I’m also confident with senior dogs who may need slower walks, medication reminders, or extra monitoring. Communication is a big priority for me—I send plenty of updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you complete peace of mind. I’m currently working part time on the weekends and I’m free during the week. So I’ll have plenty of time to care for you’re pets! I make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable. My home has a big fenced yard with nice grass and plenty of space to run around. Inside, there’s lots of room to relax and play too. I keep a close eye on pets, follow their routines, and make sure they feel right at home the whole time.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. My first furry friend was a rescue puppy that needed to be nursed back to health, which sparked my passion for caring for animals. Over the years, I’ve fostered many dogs and gained hands-on experience with a wide range of personalities, medical needs, and behavioral challenges. I’ve trained both puppies and older dogs alike, understanding that patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement are key at any age. I’m confident, calm, and prepared to handle most situations with care and attentiveness I’m currently a stay-at-home dog mom, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. I occasionally take on side work, but I’m home the majority of the time, so your dog will rarely be left alone. We are a crate-trained household, and I do ask that owners provide their dog’s crate for their stay. If I need to step out briefly, your pup will be safely and comfortably crated in their own familiar space. Otherwise, they’ll enjoy plenty of companionship, supervision, and engagement throughout the day. We also have a spacious yard that offers safe outdoor time and plenty of room to play and burn off energy. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities, whether they are staying in my home or I am caring for them in yours. In my home, we provide a secure and structured environment designed to help dogs feel comfortable and relaxed. Our yard is fully fenced, and I supervise all outdoor time. I go outside multiple times throughout the day with the dogs — whether it’s for potty breaks, play sessions, or simply relaxing outdoors. Depending on the weather and your dog’s energy level, we may spend anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour outside playing games like tug-of-war or fetch. After playtime, dogs can cooloff comfortably inside with air conditioning. My dog is gentle, especially with smaller dogs, and stays close to me outdoors. I carefully monitor all interactions to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. When it comes to feeding, I follow each pet’s established routine. While my dog free-feeds when alone, I understand that many dogs do best on a schedule, and I am happy to follow your specific feeding instructions. Clear communication, supervision, and consistency are the foundation of the care I provide. I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own

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.
“You can tell Niome has a heart for animals. Niome always makes Phoebe feel right at home. Phoebe has the best time playing with the other pups, and comes home exhausted from a full day of play.”

About: Currently an owner of a 6-year-old Golden Retriever. Pet sitter in Portland, Oregon, and have previously owned bunnies and cats. Open to playing fetch and going on long walks all day, or cuddling! I am a college student home for the summer, so I am currently available every day. I work from home, so I am flexible with my time. I provide care in my clients' homes, as I am unable to care for pets in my own home. I follow each pet's normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of attention to help them feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away.
About: I have had dogs my entire life and have lots of experience taking of care and providing a safe and happy experience for them. My last fur baby was 18 year old silky terrier and still miss him so not ready emotionally for my own but do enjoy caring for and being around others fur babies. I would appreciate and enjoy taking care of your doggies in my home as I did my own. I work from home remotely but have a flexible schedule, normally evening ours I’m online but will still be in living area with dog(s). I will be available to sit with, walk or play in yard/home throughout day and take care of any needs of dog(s). I have a larger home with fenced in yard, grass for playtime and potty. I also would enjoy and can provide walks with your dog(s) if desired. Also if dog(s) enjoys fetch and outdoors, my backyard has high rock fenced area that is safe for roaming and playing. Interior is spacious and centrally air cooled so very comfortable during warmer days and cozy safe living area.

“Christine provided great care to my pampered pet. He bonded with her husband (rather than her dogs) and was his constant shadow. Sending me photos and updates during my trip eased my concerns. When we dropped Bailey off, it was raining and he whimpered as if we were abandoning him. The updates proved my worries were needless.”


About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. I’m currently a dog groomer, and I absolutely love my job! I have 2 dogs, Chowder and Rascal (mini Aussies). Although I am located in Waianae, I am willing to drive all over the island. My dog grooming studio is at my house, so I’m home most of the day. When I have multiple boarders I like to rotate them in the yard throughout the day. I have a kiddie pool as well that most dogs enjoy. I have a fenced yard and sturdy gates to keep everyone safe. I typically like to keep boarders from different families separate. If you’re comfortable with your dog being with others dogs, they will only play supervised to avoid any skirmishes. My Aussies are friendly but I only let them socialize if you’re ok with it.

About: Trained with large dogs and no problems with little ones. I’ve cared for cats, birds, reptiles and more. I love taking walks and playing fetch. I also know how to give medications and care for elderly dogs as well. I love animals, especially dogs and appreciate being able to help them. I’m available daily for walks, feeding or check in’s every day of the week. I have a decently sized yard that is totally fenced in, even for little dogs. I have an attached garage as well as numerous baby gates. I have my own vehicle and I’m skilled at caring for others homes as well.
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful! In fact, she's such a great sitter that I almost hesitate to write this review because selfishly, I'd love to keep her availability to myself! This was our very first time leaving our puppy with a sitter, and naturally we were a little nervous. Samantha immediately put our minds at ease. Before our trip, she took the time to meet with us and show us where our puppy would be staying in her home, which made us feel so much more comfortable and confident. While we were away for nearly two weeks, Samantha kept us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos. It meant so much to know our puppy was happy, safe, and well cared for while we were gone. What impressed us even more was that she actually helped reinforce our puppy's potty training during our time away. We came home to a puppy who had continued making progress, which was such a pleasant surprise! Samantha is truly a sweetheart, and it's obvious that she has a genuine love for animals and a heart for what she does. The care, attention, and affection she showed our puppy exceeded all of our expectations. We are so grateful we came across Samantha and couldn't recommend her more highly. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”


“Fantastic sitter, very attentive with my dog. When Sasha got an upset stomach, she made sure to notify me and Rover and ensured she was properly care of. Wonderful dog sitter, would recommend to anyone needing a safe place for their dog to stay for a bit.”

“Rose and her family was such a blessing, love that she continued to send photos while we were away, and treated Broski as family. Awesome, we are thankful and really appreciate Rose and her family.”

“We had the best experience with our recent booking with Ciara. Our Australian Cattle Dog Kuma loved his daily walks and play time and came back home very well cared for and happy. She is great, very knowledgeable on Dog behaviors and has the sweetest Great Dane. Will definitely book for future trips!”

“Tanya and her family did a great job with my energetic Aussie! My dog loved all the attention and play time he got at Tanya’s house, and I really appreciated the photos and text updates on my dog’s stay. Theirs is such a caring household that truly loves dogs. I definitely plan on booking with Tanya again in the future.”

“Robin was great and Gus was well loved and appreciated. Thank you so much! Robin has a wonderful space and yard and Gus loved being able to go hang outside and come in as he pleased. I received a lot of great pictures of Gus being Gus and enjoying his stay.”


“Makayla was absolutely wonderful with Huey! From the moment I booked, her communication was exactly what every pet parent hopes for when leaving their dog in someone else’s care. She sent regular updates and photos, asked thoughtful questions whenever she needed clarification, and was proactive about sharing any concerns related to his care. I booked on very short notice and still received top-tier service. It was clear that Makayla genuinely cared about Huey’s comfort, safety, and well-being. Knowing he was in such kind and capable hands gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I trust Makayla completely with my fur babies and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and compassionate pet sitter!”

“Pei was a great sitter for our Dallas. The assurance and genuine care he provided allowed us to have a worry free trip with our daughters. The daily pictures of what Dallas was up to and the friends he was making while we were away was comforting. So grateful for Pei. Hoping to book with him again soon.”

“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:)”

“Shandri provided loving care for our pet Tuffee. She went out of her way to assure he was comfortable and safe. He came home in good spirits and it was like he had been on great vacation himself! We would want to book with Shandri again for sure.”

“Julia did a great job with communicating prior to Scout's stay as we were nervous using Rover for the first time. Accommodated a meeting prior, and sent a couple of pictures/videos during the day.”

“Paige and her husband did a great job making sure my very shy cat was comfortable during the week I was gone. She was very responsive in updating me when I asked about my cat. 👍👍👍”

“At this point we joke that when Giz goes to Greg's house. That it's his vacation from us. He doesn't even look back when we drop him off. Might offer to share custody soon. In all seriousness, Greg has afforded us the ability to take trips again and know that without a shadow of a doubt that Giz is taken care off. He sends us action shots of the dogs and always gives us updates. We literally can not ask for more. He's the best.”


“Brianda has become the only Rover we use on Oahu, she has had our big Pit mix multiple times and I swear our dog is better behaved with her. The communication is always quick and straightforward and the care is great. Thanks Brianda!”

“Tiffany did a great job and I would not hesitate to book with her again. We received daily updates and photos and Clayton was relaxed and happy when we picked him up. Also, Tiffany’s home is spotless. If I could give more stars I would!”


“Kaitlyn was great. She took in Bree with just a few days notice and Bree enjoyed herself. Kaitlyn is energetic and took Bree on daily walks (long) and that was important to me. As a pit-mix they need to be walked so they can sniff everything. Kaitlyn followed my lead on using the snacks in the puzzle toys to break up the boredom that Pit's can get if not stimulated. She was a great dog-sitter.”
