“Bela had the most amazing service, great communication and made us feel very comfortable having our Naomi in her care.

I was a little worried cocoa puff would not welcome me home. Thank you Dianne for such great care of my “baby””
“Cheryl was EXCELLENT! We got to do a meet and greet with her before I booked. Riri got to meet her dog Jose too. Cheryl gave us daily updates & pictures/videos of Riri during her stay. This was Riri’s first time being around another dog & she did so well! Seeing the videos & pictures Cheryl sent was so assuring that she was in good hands! She looked like she was having too much fun that I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come back home with me🤣 Cheryl treated Riri like her very own. On the day of pick up, Riri came home with a cute little reversible dog bandana sown by Cheryl☺️ 10/10 recommend & we will definitely be using Cheryl again👌🏼 Thank you Cheryl for your service!”

Thanks so much Rebecca for your excellent care of Terra!”
About: For over five decades, I’ve had the joy and privilege of caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. What began as a childhood love for animals has grown into a lifelong passion and profession. From raising litters of puppies to gently bottle-feeding orphaned kittens, and from grooming horses to tending to backyard chickens, I’ve experienced nearly every aspect of pet care. My journey includes extensive hands-on experience with dogs, cats, turtles, fish, horses, cattle, and chickens. Whether it’s managing the complex needs of a senior dog, administering medication to a diabetic cat, or ensuring a horse’s hooves are properly cleaned and checked, I bring a deep well of knowledge, calm confidence, and loving patience to every animal I care for. Throughout my career, I’ve worked on farms, in veterinary settings, and as a full-time pet sitter. I’ve handled emergency situations, special needs animals, and high-energy breeds. I know the importance of not just feeding and walking pets, but understanding their behavior, emotional needs, and unique personalities. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I work part-time remotely from home on my own flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), and personalized care throughout the day. I’m a true homebody who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals, so pets are rarely left alone for long. My flexible lifestyle allows me to adapt to each pet’s routine, ensuring they receive consistent care, love, exercise, and a calm, safe environment where they feel comfortable, secure, and treated like family. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my highest priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I treat every animal with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, calm, and supervised environment where they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and companionship throughout the day. My five friendly, well-socialized pets can provide positive interaction for social animals, while pets who prefer quiet time can enjoy a separate yard or their own space. If your pet is crate-trained or you prefer they be crated during meals, bedtime, or when appropriate, I’m happy to follow their normal routine. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure and reduces stress. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your home and follow your pet’s established schedule as closely as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, bedtime routines, and favorite activities to help your pet feel comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I’ll also make sure doors, gates, and fences remain secure, clean up after your pet, monitor for any changes in behavior or health, and keep you updated while you’re away. Every pet is unique, so I take the time to understand their personality, energy level, medical needs, and comfort level around other animals. Whether your companion loves to play, enjoys quiet naps, or requires extra patience due to age or special needs, I’ll provide personalized care that helps them feel safe, relaxed, and loved. My goal is to earn your trust by providing dependable care and giving you complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is in experienced, compassionate hands.
“Perfect boarding for our small Lhasa Apsu . He had a good buddy their dog chewy. Athena sent good pictures with commentary everyday. Will use Athena again but now afraid our Bohdi will want to stay with them :)”
About: I have loved and trained our own Bernese Mountain Dogs (Germany and Belgium) for over 20 years, and fostered dogs (senior dogs, puppies, and Animal Control rescues) the past 3 years, sometimes taking in dogs who had no reason to trust humans, dogs that learned through our care that comforting routines and training through play helps them to trust again, and leads them to becoming more adoptable dog companions. I believe trust has to be earned with our dogs. Only then, will they let us care for them with love through routines they can count on. I look forward to continuing the routines you have already established with your pupper. I raised our dogs believing every day, every moment is an opportunity for training of basic dog citizen behaviors (come, sit, down, leave it, etc.) through active engagement and play, and daily walks and cuddles. Note: We still welcome in Foster dogs, and hope your non aggressive dog(s) will also be good pup ambassadors in interacting with senior dogs or other fosters. I work remotely part-time from home, and I am retired so aside from short trips away from the house for errands, I am here to care for your dog(s). With our own dogs, we held to a consistent schedule: a morning walk (7-ish), then breakfast, rest (to avoid bloat in large dogs), playtime several times per day in our fenced yard, and an afternoon walk, then dinner. We have a fully fenced yard on 1/4 acre. Potty-trained dogs are welcome in the house and on some covered furniture. We have a 30ʻ deck with an outdoor couch and chairs with with rolling gates to the outer yard. We also have a smaller fenced area for dogs who prefer to be outside in cool shaded grassy areas. I specialize in large non-aggressive dogs. Most of these dogs do not like like to sleep in human beds; I welcome pet guests to bring their own large dog beds for their stays.
“Okay I was skeptical at first because he had only one review but how come Austin does not have as many reviews as he deserve? I absolutely am glad that I found him. He was just so great. He would send me pictures as often as he could and I could tell my dog was enjoying her time with him for sure in the pictures. Thank you!!”

About: Hi! My name is Isabella A, and I’m a full-time student at the University of Hawai‘i at Hilo. In my free time, I love being outdoors, whether it’s hiking, going to the beach and looking for shells, or exploring new places to eat. Growing up here on the Big Island, I was always surrounded by animals, which sparked my lifelong love for them. I’ve had experience caring for dogs, and cats since i was 10 and I understand how important pets are as members of your family. You can trust me to provide attentive care, lots of love, playtime, and snuggles for your four-legged family members. 🐶❤️ I am currently a full time student with a part time job. I will be available anytime during breaks (winter, spring, summer). During these breaks i will be available from 7am - 5pm! 😊 I would love to meet your furry companions and make sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained while you are away! They deserve the best! ❤️✨
“Christina is an excellent sitter for our high energy pup. Christina takes good care of her during weekly check in visits. Her Rover cards are detailed. She has been a big help to me while working full time and trying to raise a puppy. Thank you, Christina!”
“Regan took excellent care of our cats and our home while we were away! She clearly gave our animals lots of love, and we returned to happy, healthy babies and a clean home. We would definitely have her come again!”
“Dani was fantastic and the fur kids loved her. They were happy to see her and sad when she left. Dani is respectful and responsive. She sent great photos and were completely relaxed knowing she was caring for our pets.”
About: I grew up with indoor and outdoor cats and understand their needs and how different they are from other animals. Particularly their need for love when they want it, and how to give them space while still making them feel loved and engaged. I currently have a wonderful cat named Snape, he is shown in the picture above.

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was young. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets. I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs and large breeds, plus those that need a little extra patience and attention, and I'm fully comfortable administering medications and handling special care routines. My partner and I work from home on a large, open acreage property on Hawaii's Big Island, which means your dog gets constant supervision, fresh air, and the freedom of a true home environment. Our dogs are currently off island, which means your dog gets our undivided attention and is always the star of the show. Your fur baby is family, and we'll treat them exactly that way — with aloha I work from home full-time, which means your dog is never left alone. My days are built around flexibility — morning walks, midday play, afternoon lounging, and evening wind-downs are all part of the routine. Your pup will have a consistent, attentive presence throughout the entire day, every day of their stay. I'm available for boarding 7 days a week, and because I'm always on the property, last-minute needs and extended stays are never a problem. Whether your trip is a quick weekend getaway or a longer vacation, your dog will have the same loving, supervised care from check-in to pickup. Your dog's safety is my top priority from the moment they arrive. I'm trained in pet first aid and know how to recognize and respond to health concerns quickly and calmly. Because I work from home and am present on the property all day, your dog is never unsupervised outdoors — every outside time is accompanied and attentive. Our large acreage property is open and natural, which means dogs enjoy real freedom to roam, sniff, and explore — always with me by their side. For pet parents who prefer a crate or have a dog that feels more secure in one, I'm happy to accommodate that with advance notice. I'll always follow your care instructions to the letter and communicate any concerns promptly. You'll receive regular photo updates throughout your dog's stay so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and in good hands.
“Natalie is extremely kind and thoughtful and a great caretaker for our pups. We left our two dogs with her for the day while we explored the national park and Natalie kept us updated with many pictures and texts, letting us know how they were doing. Her home has a beautiful fenced outdoor area where our dogs could explore and play with her dogs and several others that were there for daycare. I highly recommend Natalie and we will gladly use her services again in the very near future!”
“Daisy had a great day with Blair! We would definitely have her there again. We popped over for a meet and greet a couple days before and Blair showed us around. It’s a great, simple and secure play space for dogs. We received several pictures over the day which was really nice of her. We will be back :)”
About: With over 20 years of experience, I’ve learned that a dog doesn’t just need a place to stay—they need a staycation. If you’re looking for a home-away-from-home, I offer a safe, cozy environment where your fur-baby is a pack member, not just a guest. My home features a spacious, half-acre fenced yard, perfect for zoomies and sunbathing. Toby, my dog, is always ready to make new friends and play. Whether you’re heading off-island or just need someone for the day, I’m here to make sure your fur-baby's time away is just as fun as it is safe. Every dog is part of our pack. I provide regular photo and video updates so you have total peace of mind while you're away. Let’s chat! I’d love to meet you and your fur-baby to discuss how I can make your next vacation, their staycation. Message me to schedule a meet-and-greet! Enjoy peace of mind knowing your dog is in loving hands. I’m home all day, providing constant care and a secure, comfortable environment for boarding dogs. For drop-in visits, I’m available for morning and evening sessions to fit your dog’s routine, with flexibility for custom schedules. I travel within a 10 mile radius from Pahoa, covering Keaau and nearby areas, ensuring your pup gets timely care, whether at my home or yours. Guest dogs enjoy a safe, loving home with a fully fenced half-acre yard in Pahoa for playtime, plus a cozy indoor space for rest. I offer frequent play sessions and potty breaks every 0-2 hours. I’m experienced with administering oral and injected medications and handling special needs dogs. My household has no children, and my own sweet 6 lb dog, Toby (neutered), is friendly with other dogs (no females in heat accepted)—he enjoys company, so I especially welcome calm 20 lb (or 21-40 lb) dogs who are already accustomed to living or playing with small dogs. This helps ensure everyone has a relaxed, fun stay!
“Alexander was caring and kind to our little pup, Koa. He was intentional and slow in introducing the dogs to each other. He has a large, fully fenced-in backyard, but for this first dog sitting, he brought Koa out on a leash in the yard and for a walk around the neighborhood. Alexander was accommodating and flexible with pick-up/drop-off times and was available with short notice. We will book with him again.”
“This is the second time with Dianne watching our dog, and we can’t speak highly enough of her. She’s prompt, terrific with our pup and just a really nice person! We feel so lucky to have found her.”

About: I have dogsat for people all over the world from the mainland to Costa Rica for over 40 years. People have entrusted their dogs to me for vacations out of the country, long term & short term. I accept them into my home and treat them just as if they were my own! Lots of love, hugs, walks and smooches! I also make sure to follow the pet owners instructions so they are cared for exactly how the owner wants them to be. I am very careful and conscientious while caring for someone else’s dog, safety is first on the list! I am very loving, have high integrity and ethics, plus I am very reliable. Since I am home all day your pet would be with me 24/7. I am one that enjoys interacting with the dogs, whether it be playing fetch or going for a walk everyone enjoys getting outside. I have a Chihuahua, named Jose that I rescued in June 2024. He is a really nice guy but takes a little while to warm up to newcomers. I am very careful while attending someone else’s pet, I know that they are like their baby so I take care of them like one of my own. In other words I spoil them rotten! Caring for people’s pets fits right into my lifestyle, as I am retired and an artist. I spend most of my time at home doing my artwork and working outdoors on my property. I am very careful with pets that I sit as well as my own. I keep a good eye on them at all times, making sure they are safe and not getting into trouble! I have a gate at the top of my stairs so I know everyone is safe and where they are supposed to be. I live on 3 acres in a little Ohana 450 feet back from the road. It is a very calm and quiet atmosphere with no neighbors in sight.

“Izshel did an amazing job. I contacted them for a very last-minute dog walk, and they were able to help me out. They have very clear communication which I really appreciated. I would recommend to others!”
About: With five-star reviews from local clients on the Big Island, I've built a reputation for reliable, attentive care for both pets and homes. Housesitting has been a way of life for me for many years, and I take seriously the trust that comes with caring for someone's home and animals. I grew up in the country with dogs, cats, and farm animals, and that early life with animals shaped how I relate to them. I walk extensively every day and love having a dog along. The Big Island has plenty of dog-friendly trails and I enjoy exploring them with pets in my care. Cats get plenty of attention too, even if they're staying home while I head out. If you're looking for someone who will treat your home and your animals with genuine care and respect, I'd love to hear from you. I work from home, so your pets will have company most of the day, every day. I'm usually home in the evenings as well, as that's when I do most of my writing. For housesits, I stay at the client's home full time — overnight and through most of the day — so pets maintain their normal routines as closely as possible. I follow whatever feeding schedules, rules, and habits the owner has established, and I ask detailed questions before a sit begins so there are no surprises. I treat every home I stay in with care and respect, leaving it in the same condition I found it. For drop-in visits, I arrive on schedule, spend quality time with the pet rather than rushing through, and send updates so owners know everything is going well. In either case I make sure animals have fresh water, are fed on schedule, get appropriate exercise and attention, and are never left alone longer than is comfortable for them. I'm attentive to changes in behavior or health and will contact the owner promptly if anything seems off.

“Katie did a great job with walking my two dogs (German Shepherd and Shepherd mix). I could tell from the meet and greet that she has a great knowledge of dogs and that they love her. My pups are looking forward to their future time with her”
About: I have taken care of dogs from a young age and have always loved animals. I grew up with fish and turtles as well! We have a Shih Tzu Maltese mix that is friendly to all fur babies and humans. I am very reliable, punctual, and have always followed through with everything that I do. Rest assured that your fur baby will be safe with me. I decided to follow my passion in life. With that, I took a leap of faith to do what I truly love, which is caring for animals on a full-time basis! Hours are from 6 am-6 pm for doggy day care. If you are late in picking up your dog, there will be an additional $15 charge added to your total. We have a house with a completely fenced in and gated yard so your fur babies can roam around freely! I vacuum and mop on the daily as well! We do have split a/c units in almost every room. In addition, we maintain our property with pesticides that are safe for dogs to prevent fleas, ticks, and heart worm. To ensure a safe environment, we expect that your dog is on flea, tick, and heart worm medicine and are up-to-date with all vaccines.
About: **I AM TRAVELING OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY STARTING 5/20/26 AND WILL BE BLOCKING MY CALENDAR TILL I KNOW I WILL RETURN. ** I travel off island often and can't have my own puppy family, so I will watch your fur-babies like they are my own! I enjoy the adventure of pup-sitting at homes all over the island. I work remotely so am able to be away from my place for long stretches of time. While I like to explore the local areas I stay in, I will mostly be snuggled up with your fur-babies typing away. I am a veteran with Rover- In fact I have been pet-sitting before Rover existed using Craigslist. I have a huge love for all animals and am very experienced with caring for different types of animals and breeds. I am patient, and gentle with a huge heart for animals. I understand every household has different culture. I always try and mimic all the rules of the home. Pets not allowed on the couch? no problem. Dogs like to sleep in the bed with owners? I am an expert puppy snugger. Perhaps the best. I will try and reinforce all commands and rules so there is a seamless transition upon your return. When dog-sitting in your home I will leave it better than I found it and happily respect boundaries and house rules. * My property is in Hilo but I am open to sitting at homes all over the island. In fact, I love to! I will text picture updates to my clients so they feel comforted that their sweetheart is being loved on. Why I love dog sitting: I had a Golden Retriever rescue for over 15 years till he passed 10 years ago. I travel a lot and didn't think it was fair to get another dog, but have been pet sitting since. I LOVE having dog energy still around... and the friendships I have made with my puppy parents. For my lifestyle it's the best of both worlds! I work remotely so am very flexible with my schedule and love having pets around to love on while exploring new and interesting locations on this beautiful island. My place is in Hilo but am open to doing pet sit stays all around the Big Island. Initial meeting can be done with a zoom call before meet and greet if too far from my area. I can also do house drop in visits if it coordinates with my location at the time needed. Right now I am primarily house sitting since my property does not have a fenced yard. I will match your schedule as best as possible and take care of your place the way you desire.

About: Animals have always naturally gravitated toward me, and caring for dogs has never felt like “work” to me I genuinely love it. I’ve helped watch and care for dogs for family and friends many times over the years, and I’m the type of person who pays close attention to their energy, comfort, and routines. I know every dog is different and I’m very patient with shy, anxious, high-energy, or affectionate dogs alike. I am very intuitive with their needs and and some people even call me a “dog whisperer”, because of how in tune I am. I love spending quality time with them, whether that’s going on walks, playing outside, relaxing together, or simply making sure they feel safe and cared for while their owner is away. I also understand how important updates and communication are when someone trusts you with their pet, so I always aim to be dependable, attentive, and caring. I currently work as an online life coach, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for pet care, walks, check-ins, overnight stays, and quality time with your dog. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals so I’m able to give them lots of attention, companionship, and care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. My schedule is very open and flexible, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and needs. I always want pets to feel safe, calm, and comfortable while in my care. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, energy level, and routine so they can feel as relaxed and at home as possible. I’m very patient and attentive, and I make sure pets have plenty of love, supervision, playtime, water, potty breaks, and a peaceful environment. I also understand how important trust and communication are when someone is caring for your pet, so I always aim to provide updates, photos, and dependable care so owners can feel fully at ease while they’re away.🐶❤️ I’m also a very clean and hygienic person and I always treat people’s homes with respect and care. I genuinely like keeping spaces tidy, and I aim to leave your home just as clean or even cleaner than I found it.

Thanks so much Rebecca for your excellent care of Terra!”
About: For over five decades, I’ve had the joy and privilege of caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. What began as a childhood love for animals has grown into a lifelong passion and profession. From raising litters of puppies to gently bottle-feeding orphaned kittens, and from grooming horses to tending to backyard chickens, I’ve experienced nearly every aspect of pet care. My journey includes extensive hands-on experience with dogs, cats, turtles, fish, horses, cattle, and chickens. Whether it’s managing the complex needs of a senior dog, administering medication to a diabetic cat, or ensuring a horse’s hooves are properly cleaned and checked, I bring a deep well of knowledge, calm confidence, and loving patience to every animal I care for. Throughout my career, I’ve worked on farms, in veterinary settings, and as a full-time pet sitter. I’ve handled emergency situations, special needs animals, and high-energy breeds. I know the importance of not just feeding and walking pets, but understanding their behavior, emotional needs, and unique personalities. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I work part-time remotely from home on my own flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), and personalized care throughout the day. I’m a true homebody who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals, so pets are rarely left alone for long. My flexible lifestyle allows me to adapt to each pet’s routine, ensuring they receive consistent care, love, exercise, and a calm, safe environment where they feel comfortable, secure, and treated like family. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my highest priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I treat every animal with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, calm, and supervised environment where they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and companionship throughout the day. My five friendly, well-socialized pets can provide positive interaction for social animals, while pets who prefer quiet time can enjoy a separate yard or their own space. If your pet is crate-trained or you prefer they be crated during meals, bedtime, or when appropriate, I’m happy to follow their normal routine. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure and reduces stress. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your home and follow your pet’s established schedule as closely as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, bedtime routines, and favorite activities to help your pet feel comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I’ll also make sure doors, gates, and fences remain secure, clean up after your pet, monitor for any changes in behavior or health, and keep you updated while you’re away. Every pet is unique, so I take the time to understand their personality, energy level, medical needs, and comfort level around other animals. Whether your companion loves to play, enjoys quiet naps, or requires extra patience due to age or special needs, I’ll provide personalized care that helps them feel safe, relaxed, and loved. My goal is to earn your trust by providing dependable care and giving you complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is in experienced, compassionate hands.
About: I have loved and trained our own Bernese Mountain Dogs (Germany and Belgium) for over 20 years, and fostered dogs (senior dogs, puppies, and Animal Control rescues) the past 3 years, sometimes taking in dogs who had no reason to trust humans, dogs that learned through our care that comforting routines and training through play helps them to trust again, and leads them to becoming more adoptable dog companions. I believe trust has to be earned with our dogs. Only then, will they let us care for them with love through routines they can count on. I look forward to continuing the routines you have already established with your pupper. I raised our dogs believing every day, every moment is an opportunity for training of basic dog citizen behaviors (come, sit, down, leave it, etc.) through active engagement and play, and daily walks and cuddles. Note: We still welcome in Foster dogs, and hope your non aggressive dog(s) will also be good pup ambassadors in interacting with senior dogs or other fosters. I work remotely part-time from home, and I am retired so aside from short trips away from the house for errands, I am here to care for your dog(s). With our own dogs, we held to a consistent schedule: a morning walk (7-ish), then breakfast, rest (to avoid bloat in large dogs), playtime several times per day in our fenced yard, and an afternoon walk, then dinner. We have a fully fenced yard on 1/4 acre. Potty-trained dogs are welcome in the house and on some covered furniture. We have a 30ʻ deck with an outdoor couch and chairs with with rolling gates to the outer yard. We also have a smaller fenced area for dogs who prefer to be outside in cool shaded grassy areas. I specialize in large non-aggressive dogs. Most of these dogs do not like like to sleep in human beds; I welcome pet guests to bring their own large dog beds for their stays.
“Okay I was skeptical at first because he had only one review but how come Austin does not have as many reviews as he deserve? I absolutely am glad that I found him. He was just so great. He would send me pictures as often as he could and I could tell my dog was enjoying her time with him for sure in the pictures. Thank you!!”
