“Auntie Tracey is the best!!! Kynzley loves the toy box!!! I always get pictures everyday and Kynzley is having fun. When we picked her up and brought her home, she was sooooo exhausted she went straight for the couch to sleep. Definitely will stay at Auntie Tracey’s again!!!”

“Jacque took amazing care of Cleo in her home while we traveled to Kauai for my son’s graduation trip! She sent daily pictures/videos to put my mind at ease. And, she gave her a bath the night before I picked her up so she was looking pretty and smelling great! I would not hesitate to use Jacque again!”

“Joel is THE BEST! He is so kind, and I felt very comfortable leaving our pup with him. Everything worked out great. Will definitely have him care for our Maya again!”

“This was our first time using Rover, and we had a great experience working with Kyrie. She took good care of our dog and I could tell he was so happy and loved with her. She sent us pictures and videos of him having so much fun with her and her family. There was lots of fetch, adventures, and even a bath. We highly recommend her services and are already planning on booking future stays with her soon!”

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

“Greg took great care of our 1 year old pup during our 5 night trip. Our dog and Zephyr had fun playing with each other in the spacious yard. Don’t hesitate to book with Greg!”

“Diana did an amazing job taking care of my dogs! I loved getting daily pictures. Her xommunication was fantastic, and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!”

“We have been using Daylin now for a while. She is so sweet with our dog, Winnie. Winnie loves going there and she’s treated like a little princess. Love giving her updates and the fact that they go on walks together. I totally recommend using Daylin for your next Pet sitter”

“Christine is an absolute gem! She was extremely communicative and caring with our special guy. I appreciate all the updates and her flexibility in accommodating our schedule. She was so patient and attentive to Leo’s special needs. I am so grateful to have found Christine and will definitely be using her gain in the future. Thank you so much!!”


“Another lovely visit for our pups! We’re so grateful to have found a sitter that cares about both their physical and emotional wellbeing! They had several cute activities during this trip, and I could tell they had a great time. Thankful as always! 😊”

“Jessica was amazing. She was quick to respond and sent updates and pictures throughout the day. It seems like Cooper had a great time. Will definitely use her again.”

“Danica is great, she took care of my Tamago like her own. Daily multiple updates and lots of snuggles for my kid. Couldn’t be happier to have left Tamago in her care.”

“Jessica is the best!!! She knows dogs so well and is so good with them!!! She makes sure they feel right at home and sends updates and pictures throughout their stay! My boy is always so excited and happy to go stay at her house!!! He is well loved and cared for when I’m gone and I couldn’t be happier!!!”
“Catalina was an amazing pet sitter for my dog klaus. kept me updated everyday and sent me pictures of him. i would give her a 10/5 star review if i could! thank you so much Catalina, and i will choose your services 10/10 times! Mahalo👍”

“Again, took great care of my fur baby. I appreciated all the updates and their fur babies get along so well with mine. He is always happy to see them and sleep over. Would easily recommend.”

“Let me first preface with there's not enough good things to say about our experience with Ashley! She deserves more than 5 Stars! Suffice to say, we have found a permanent boarder for our Husky, Hana! Quick, efficient and detailed updates and correspondence with plenty of photos. Our puppy Hana, is a delicate flower, very timid and practically scared of her own shadow when around strangers or in public, but it was in her stars to have someone like Ashley whom gave her the compassionate, loving care she needs. It's obvious the experience was exceptionally good for her, as she has matured so fast in just 2 weeks of boarding. We have to be thankful as well of Ashley's fur-baby Apollo, as having a grown husky to show our pup the ropes has helped her come out of her shell further. Ashley then went a step further with follow up correspondence to ensure Hana had a nice transition back home. We're so thankful, Mahalo nui loa!”

“Brody had a fantastic stay. He is one tired pup now and that can only be down to the incredible attention and playtime he got whilst with Jay and the family. They provided photos and videos frequently. Kept us up to date on anything important and gave Brody so much love and attention. I think he’s going to be missing his buddies for a while! Thank you for taking such good care of him 🐾”

“Ky really treated my cat hallow with such kindness and I could tell my kitty loved her just through the pictures. She kept the house clean and respected our boundaries that we set. I’m happy we found a permanent house/cat sitter for our home!! Thanks ky❤️”


“She was amazing! Even brought in our packages by the back door. Very thorough and considerate. I would definitely use her again and would trust her with my furry family member. We are very pleased with Rover and Gracie.”

“Mary-Ann was great. Attentive to each cats personality. Knew when to play and knew when they just needed love (lots of pets). She helped put our mind at ease while traveling.”

“Rochelle is amazing and so helpful, kind, and understanding. So relieved and grateful that we met, and I feel completely at ease that she will be here with my girls while I’m away.”

About: i’ve been around pets big and small, from kittens to huskies, I love animals. I am a long term care giver for a Australian shepherd. i work part time, so on the days i’m not working i would love to get out and take a dog for a walk or two. I care for pets in a loving way, discipline can be very important, but i like to reward for good behavior and ignore bad, but of course use appropriate discipline when needed.

“Destiny was amazing with our kitties! One of our girls is very picky with who she gives her attention to and Destiny was getting snuggles in no time! That’s always the first part of the interview process. While we were away our messages were incredibly detailed to keep us comfortable with the care our babies were receiving, and the photos were plentiful. At one point Destiny even noticed we were out of the type of food the cats love most, and went to the store to purchase more for us (even an extra one for our return). We will definitely be seeking Destiny for any future trips we have, and have even possibly gained a friend from it as well. :) Highly recommend her for your go-to kitty sitter.”


About: I have taken care of cats since I was 15 years old! I love watching kitties and ensuring they receive cuddles, timely feedings and alone time if they are the solitude type. A fun fact about me is I raised a kitten from 3 days old, his name is Sigmund! I also have base access so I can help military families with their furry family members as well!
“Absolutely fantastic dog sitter. Latai is so attentive and took such great care of my two dogs. My work schedule is always changing and she was so flexible and patient with me. I highly recommend her!!”

About: Hi, I'm a remote worker who loves to travel and meet new people and pets. Recently, I have been spending more time in Hawaii, so I'm starting my Rover back up while I'm on island. I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. I've taken a training in dog body language from the humane society and am very detail oriented when it comes to following instructions for your pet's needs. I work remotely, which means more time at home caring for your dogs or cats. Feel free to reach out with any questions :) I'm happy to video call or meet in person with any potential clients to see if we'd be a good fit. I work from home on a flexible schedule, which means more time to give attention, pets, and walks to your furry loved ones. I'm happy to stick to your pet's preferred routine. Your pet will be my priority while I'm at your place. I'm also happy to tackle other responsibilities during a pet sit - picking up mail, taking out trash, etc., so that everything gets taken care of while you're away. Cleanliness will be a priority, and I always pick up after myself to leave a space exactly as I found it.
About: I have had dogs my entire life, but what truly sets me apart is my professional, hands-on experience working with them every day. I spent over three years at a dog daycare, where I grew from a daycare attendant to a dog trainer, and eventually became the daycare manager. This experience gave me the opportunity to work with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and personalities in a structured and supervised environment. In addition to my daycare and training background, I have been a responsible dog breeder since 2022, raising four successful litters of Golden Retrievers and Labrador Retrievers. This has given me an even deeper understanding of canine behavior, development, and attentive, hands-on care from early life stages through adulthood. I have a strong understanding of dog body language and behavior, which allows me to safely handle everything from high-energy dogs to more nervous or reactive ones. My goal is always to create a calm, safe, and positive experience for every dog in my care. Dogs are not just a job to me, they are a huge part of who I am. I currently have a Golden Retriever and a Labrador Retriever, and they continue to deepen my love and understanding of what dogs need to feel secure, happy, and well cared for. When caring for your pet, I treat them as if they were my own. You can expect consistent communication, reliability, and attentive care throughout your time away. If you have any questions about my experience or would like to see if I’m a good fit for your pet, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I would love to connect with you. Pet care is a consistent and important part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule around providing dependable, attentive care, including regular feeding times, exercise, and enrichment tailored to each dog’s needs. While I do have dogs of my own, they are on a stable routine and well cared for, which allows me to plan my time responsibly and show up fully for the pets in my care. Because of this, I am mindful about how long I am away from home at a time, but I ensure that every visit and stay is intentional, reliable, and focused on your pet’s comfort and well-being. Whether your dog needs structured walks, playtime, or a calm and consistent presence, I am able to incorporate their routine seamlessly into my day. At this time, I provide care exclusively in my client’s home so that your pet can remain comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I take pride in following each dog’s specific needs, whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training reinforcement, or simply providing a calm and attentive presence. I am very mindful of safety, structure, and reading dog body language to ensure your pet feels secure and well cared for at all times. If your dog enjoys walks, I am happy to take them around your neighborhood or to appropriate outdoor areas, depending on your preferences. I tailor each visit to match your dog’s energy level and routine. I offer a range of services including drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting depending on availability. My goal is to provide reliable, thoughtful care while keeping your pet happy, safe, and comfortable in your absence. If you have any questions, special requests, or concerns, I am always happy to communicate and make sure I am the right fit for you and your pet.
About: Hi, I’m Maddy! I’ve been living in Hawaii for about a year now and currently work in a veterinary clinic!! I have several years of experience working with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. My background includes working as a kennel technician and receptionist at a busy doggy daycare, boarding, training, and grooming facility. This has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, safety, and individualized care of dogs and cats! At this time, I do not offer boarding in my home, but I’m more than happy to provide care in your home depending on location. I strive to keep your pets’ routine as normal and stress free as possible while you’re away, and I’ll always go above and beyond to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Before and after work, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins, and I make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. If close by, I am able to use my lunch break to come by for mid-day care and potty breaks. On my days off, I have much more flexibility and can accommodate longer visits or extended care. I always prioritize making time for each pet to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I am unfortunately not offering boarding services in my own home, as I have another dog. Depending on distance, I am more than happy to stay in your home! Keeping your fur babies safe and happy is my number one priority, I am willing to go above and beyond to care for your baby.

About: I’ve had kittens and cats since I was little. I have also fostered over 20 cats and kittens from the humane society including giving medication, bottle feeding, litter training. My current cat Boo is 4 years old and I adopted her when she was 10 weeks old as foster fail. I’ve taken care of up to 8 cats/kittens at one time.

“Much appreciated. She took the time to walk my doggies and give them the attention they needed. She is reliable and I was able to book with her on a short notice. Would book again.”

About: I have been blessed to have grown up with dogs in my household so being with them is like being with family. For 17years I got to learn common behaviors, body language, and how to do basic training with them. I get along well with all animals, but I love being with dogs the most. I am very reliable and believe communication is key, it's very important in providing the best care as possible. I am available most days but I just need a heads up so I can plan and prepare for your pet. I can give full care to your pets such as feeding, walking, bathing and even some much needed belly scratches. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pet! Mahalo for your consideration. I am a home caregiver and have short hours throughout the week usually 8am-12pm and off for the rest of the day. Weekends are completely open and I can be with your pet. I do not have a yard, but we often get out of the house and go to the park or to a nearby beach to let out some energy. I work 8-12pm and off for the rest of the day. So fitting in a drop in or a walk is perfect! So getting in your pets daily walk while you’re away at work fits perfectly with my schedule. I have pet seat belts when going for car rides to the beach or to a hike to keep them safe while transporting. Keeping all gates and doors closed while in the home will avoid any quick get aways.

About: My dogs have always been my best friends. I have had experience with small, medium, and large dogs. I am careful to listen to and respect the routine and rules that you have for your fur baby, no matter how big or small. I’m a big fan of taking them for walks on the beach and shady hikes! I also love a good excuse to drive around looking for a good place for my pup to stretch her legs, or be a good cuddle buddy. I am currently a small business owner in private practice as a healthcare provider. Dog sitting was something I loved doing for many years, but paused to do to care for my senior dog for the last 3 years. After recently losing her, and not being ready for a new love of my own, I’d be honored for the opportunity to care for your pet. I live in Kaaawa but am able to travel anywhere on island to care for your pet(s). Thank you for reading my profile, & I hope to hear from you soon! I work from home doing telehealth, largely from 11-4 M/W/F so I have lots of time and breaks to spend with your pet. I spend most days at home, able to provide exercise and maintain routine feeding throughout the day. I am used to administering meds on a schedule and provide frequent updates to owners (if they’d like!). I am careful to follow the house rules and your pet’s routine. I know it takes a lot of trust for someone to care for your fur baby, and I am a trusted member of the community. I am transparent about my stay in your home and understand it is a privilege to be there and be trusted to care for your animal. I provide lots of play time and cuddles! I always leave homes cleaner than they are left. My reviews are older because of the break I took from Rover to care for my senior pup, but I still value the same service.
“Rose was incredible with Kuma!! She responded to all of my messages quickly, sent photos, kept her busy and happy all day. She was also very flexible when I had to push back my pick up time. I will absolutely be booking with Rose again!! 😊”

About: I bring over 10 years of hands-on experience working with animals, including more than 5 years as a kennel assistant and 5 years as a veterinary assistant. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve developed strong skills in administering medications, including insulin and asthma treatments. My time in a veterinary hospital has also given me valuable experience working with animals of all temperaments, allowing me to stay calm, patient, and attentive in any situation. I’m a full-time pet sitter, which means your pet gets my complete time, attention, and care. I’m dedicated to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved, and that their time with me is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I have 5 years of veterinary medical experience and feel confident providing a wide range of care for pets of all needs—from those requiring more involved medical support to those who simply need extra love and cuddles. I take cleanliness and safety seriously, thoroughly cleaning and sanitizing between each client to ensure a healthy, comfortable environment for your furry friend.

“Tracey and her mom were so amazing with my dog for her first ever visit with them. My dog can be such a drama queen and they were so patient with her. They sent plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day and also updated me at pick up. I've already booked her next stay with them!”

“Greg is amazing! I couldn’t asked for a better place to leave my dog while I’m away! Greg is very professional and knows what he is doing (better than I do)! His place is very accommodating. His dog, Zephyr, is the sweetest and becomes best friend with my dog. It makes me very happy to know that my dog is in a good care and have best friend to play with. Bonus points, Greg sent cute photos of my dog during his stay! I already re-booked Greg for my long trip and will definitely book him again if I’m away.”

About: Aloha! I have grew up with many pets. Rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, quail, chameleons, birds, fish, axolotl and my favorite dogs. I believe in routine and positive training. I am available most of the day to help give your pet enrichment,check ins, attention, feeding, snacks, grooming or time to relieve them self and get fresh air I offer home check ins, at home or yard play and enrichment. I offer grooming at your home or after walks at a park. I have a Golden doodle with a long coat and very familiar with daily grooming. I am open to help with other grooming needs as long as pet allows.
“Lauren and her family took great care of our Penny! Lauren was really good at providing us with updates, photos and videos. Penny actually passed out on the way home and slept for much longer than she usually does so I know that she must have stayed busy.”

“Michela was incredible with Charlie!! We had to reserve her last minute and she was super responsive and kept us updated all throughout Charlie’s stay. He had so many walks and off leash time, he was such a happy puppy being with her. She even took the time to give him a bath after his playtime! Michela really went above and beyond with Charlie and I will definitely be asking her to watch Charlie again.”

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


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

About: A retired marine biologist. I have had dogs my entire life. Raised puppies and watched them grow old. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and energy levels. Retired. I’m available most days if you need your pets to be simply fed, let out to pee, or to be entertained. While I take same day requests, there are no guarantees because I have several regularly scheduled walks and drop ins. Please reply promptly, I archive when no response in 24 hours. I have a fenced yard and a young corgi who has full run of the house. He can be shy to other dogs. If your dog has any aggressive tendencies or Keahi does not get along with them for whatever reason, we cannot board your dog. Meet and greets are mandatory before any boarding or daycare. Dogs must be house trained for boarding or daycare (paper trained is not house trained). I cannot and will not leave food out. If your dog has issues eating when they are fed (I feed them when I feed my dog), I have to take your dog’s food away and store it. This is a house, not a kennel where your dog has an assigned lot. If your dog has these feeding issues, consider another sitter. Same goes for finicky or difficult medical application. I have no kids on property.
“Great experience! Reef had a great time and came home happy and tired. The communication was excellent, and I felt comfortable knowing he was well taken care of. I would definitely recommend and will be booking again!”

About: I've always loved dogs, especially small ones since that is what I've had my whole life. My family's Yorkie is only 5lbs so I know how to be very careful and protective over them. I am looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I am currently working from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible! If your house is close by, I could go a couple times a day to let the pet out or even bring to my house if you wanted so they would not be alone all day! We are very pet friendly so your pet would not need to be in a crate unless you wanted them to be! We also have a fenced in yard!
About: Our oldest dog is 5 years old, being an intelligent, high energy breed she’s taught me everything I know! I wanted to start dog sitting specifically for military families, so you can be confident your pets are in good hands for an affordable price when you need to leave the island or are working long hours! MUST have access onto Hickam military base I’m a stay at home mom so I’m always home! I have plenty of time and space to give your pets the attention they need I keep my dogs on a strict feeding/potty schedule and pay attention to their cues, I can provide the same level of care and attention to detail for your pets! I have a fenced in yard and the AC is always on!
About: I know that your dog is more than just a pet—they’re family. That’s why I provide loving, reliable, and stress-free dog-sitting services tailored to your pup’s needs. Whether you’re away for a few hours or an extended trip, you can count on me to offer attentive care, regular exercise, and plenty of belly rubs. With a passion for animals and years of experience, I ensure your furry friend stays happy, safe, and comfortable while you’re away. Book with me today and give your dog the care they deserve! I’m currently a SAHM so my schedule is typically open. I do however only watch one dog at a time to provide them with a comfortable stay. They must have a bed or kennel provided with their stay. I will follow special instructions, if needed. I feed them, take them on walks, play with them, pet and cuddle them. Maybe, take them on a car ride if they like that.
“Shauna greeted us friendly and was able to see in early morning. Our family went to Kualoa Ranch which has no pet policy so we had Shauna for few hours. After pet sitting, my dog vomited few times since he ate sitter's dog food and I haven't been informed that.”

“Sova had a great time with Camilla and Ash. She was awesome, right on time, communicative, and instantly great with Sova. She even took her swimming, which Sova loved. I really appreciated how she listened carefully about Sova’s resource guarding and handled it with knowledge and confidence. It’s clear she truly understands dogs and cares about what she’s doing. Would absolutely book with her again.”

About: I grew up in a household that loves animals. I’ve always had dogs around whether it was my own or I was taking care of others dogs. I also worked as a bather for over a year so I have experience with all kinds of dogs, big and small, old and young. I am working a part-time job right now and would love to be able to spend time taking care of dogs on my days off. Since I moved away from home I’ve missed having dogs around I have experience in walking both big dogs and small dogs so I know how to handle either and I know how to walk multiple dogs at once if needed
About: *Location: Hau'ula, HI* Registered Nurse for 10 years. Competitive athlete for 20 years. Throughout my childhood I grew up with Dobermans, Bichon Frise and Standard Poodles. I have unconditional love for all dogs and all their personality. Some breeds I've watched over the last 6 months include Rhodesian Ridgeback, Pitbull mix, French Bull dogs and Standard Poodle. I've trained dogs to swim and even surf. I am comfortable with post operative care and administration of medication. Pet sitting experience also includes rabbits, cats, exotic birds and small reptiles. Happy to spend time with your pet at any time of the day. Starting next month my goal is to transition to provide full time pet exercise service to the community. I enjoy going to the beach and being outdoors which is something I have found most dogs to enjoy as well. I can do as little or as much exercising as you request and the pup can handle. If they just want to cuddle and cruise I'm well versed in that program as well.
“MaryAnn was once more exceptional. Having her drop by when we're away for long days has really had a positive impact on Winston, and we are grateful for her and her services. Thank you, MaryAnn!”

Because of this, I am mindful about how long I am away from home at a time, but I ensure that every visit and stay is intentional, reliable, and focused on your pet’s comfort and well-being. Whether your dog needs structured walks, playtime, or a calm and consistent presence, I am able to incorporate their routine seamlessly into my day. At this time, I provide care exclusively in my client’s home so that your pet can remain comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I take pride in following each dog’s specific needs, whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training reinforcement, or simply providing a calm and attentive presence. I am very mindful of safety, structure, and reading dog body language to ensure your pet feels secure and well cared for at all times. If your dog enjoys walks, I am happy to take them around your neighborhood or to appropriate outdoor areas, depending on your preferences. I tailor each visit to match your dog’s energy level and routine. I offer a range of services including drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting depending on availability. My goal is to provide reliable, thoughtful care while keeping your pet happy, safe, and comfortable in your absence. If you have any questions, special requests, or concerns, I am always happy to communicate and make sure I am the right fit for you and your pet.

You will always come home to them happy and loved! I’m currently free all week mornings and afternoons. We can enjoy walks around the neighborhood, runs or swims at the beach, or fetch at home or the park. I always make sure to scan the surrounding environment to ensure the utmost safety and care.

“Our 2 dogs had so much fun with Casey and her adorable dogs. They were worn out every evening (not a small feat). One of the days she wasn’t able to take them out due to weather, but she took them for double time the next day and issued me a refund for the missed day. I would definitely book with Casey again! Thank you!!”

About: I’ve cared for friends and family dogs since 2020, offering boarding, sitting, and even basic training to keep pups happy and learning. I always make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Pup care fits easily into my daily routine since I currently have plenty of free time and love spending it with animals.

Your pet safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure every walk is safe, fun and suited to their energy level. If your pup prefers staying cozy at home, I’m just as happy to play with them in their own comfort zone.

“Another lovely visit for our pups! We’re so grateful to have found a sitter that cares about both their physical and emotional wellbeing! They had several cute activities during this trip, and I could tell they had a great time. Thankful as always! 😊”

“Jessica was amazing. She was quick to respond and sent updates and pictures throughout the day. It seems like Cooper had a great time. Will definitely use her again.”

“Jessica is the best!!! She knows dogs so well and is so good with them!!! She makes sure they feel right at home and sends updates and pictures throughout their stay! My boy is always so excited and happy to go stay at her house!!! He is well loved and cared for when I’m gone and I couldn’t be happier!!!”
“Let me first preface with there's not enough good things to say about our experience with Ashley! She deserves more than 5 Stars! Suffice to say, we have found a permanent boarder for our Husky, Hana! Quick, efficient and detailed updates and correspondence with plenty of photos. Our puppy Hana, is a delicate flower, very timid and practically scared of her own shadow when around strangers or in public, but it was in her stars to have someone like Ashley whom gave her the compassionate, loving care she needs. It's obvious the experience was exceptionally good for her, as she has matured so fast in just 2 weeks of boarding. We have to be thankful as well of Ashley's fur-baby Apollo, as having a grown husky to show our pup the ropes has helped her come out of her shell further. Ashley then went a step further with follow up correspondence to ensure Hana had a nice transition back home. We're so thankful, Mahalo nui loa!”

“Brody had a fantastic stay. He is one tired pup now and that can only be down to the incredible attention and playtime he got whilst with Jay and the family. They provided photos and videos frequently. Kept us up to date on anything important and gave Brody so much love and attention. I think he’s going to be missing his buddies for a while! Thank you for taking such good care of him 🐾”

“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:)”

“KaVina was ABSOLUTELY amazing with my l lil man (Deuce). She kept the pics & videos coming. You could see the joy in my dogs eyes in the pictures & videos, I feel like my guy was truly able to live like he was at home. She took him for walks & played tug of war with him & kept him happy. I would definitely use her services again because she made him feel at home.”

They sent so many wonderful photos of Bamba with new friends and even took her on a hiking adventure! We can’t recommend them enough!”

“We had an absolutely amazing experience with Casey. She took wonderful care of our German Shepherds and handled everything with confidence and ease. From daily routines to overall care, everything was managed seamlessly and without a single issue. For the first time, we were able to go on vacation and truly relax, knowing our dogs were in great hands. That peace of mind is priceless, especially with large breeds like German Shepherds. We came home to happy, well cared for dogs and a calm, orderly home. We are incredibly grateful and would be more than happy to have her care for our dogs again. Highly recommended!”
