“Very responsive, kind, and attentive to both of our dogs (and to us). From the moment we picked them up from boarding, we knew that they truly enjoyed themselves. Photos throughout the boarding helped to put our minds at ease. Everything was truly great and we definitely know that we will use Tracey again! Mahalo for loving our babies as much as we do!”
“Bailey loves Jacque and was happy to see her again. Jacque gave us daily updates which we really appreciated and let us see that Bailey making new friends while we were away. Thank you again Jacque!”
“Hugo had an amazing time. His first encounter to have a huge yard to play and explore. He definitely was spoiled. The family taking care of Hugo was awesome. They are trust worthy, under standing and accommodating . We also received daily updates and pics of Hugo’s progress which was really nice to get. We would definitely use them again and recommend his service .”
“Kyrie is wonderful!! Such a warm and caring soul, and she took excellent care of our pup Rosie. We loved the pics and videos she sent that showed Rosie safe, happy and comfortable in Kyrie's home from day 1. ❤️”
“My dog stayed with Martha and her family for a few days while I was away. She took great care of him, and followed all the instructions I gave. I think he enjoyed it there more than being at home! I would highly recommend Martha to anyone in the area, and I will be using her services again.”
“Emma is an excellent doggie sitter! She's caring - to the dog owners and doggies, great at sharing how the doggies are doing - pictures and videos, and very patient. Definitely will be our regular sitter and highly recommend.”
“Angela and her family were so attentive to our La’i boy. She sent photos and ensured he transitioned well considering this was his first boarding experience. We felt at peace knowing he was being well cared for! Mahalo Angela!”
“Another great stay for Maddie at Hisae's care. Maddie recognized the place right away and made herself confortable as soon as I dropped her off. Hisae kept updated daily with photos and messages. Highly reccomended.”
“Senne was very punctual and took great care of our fur babies. She sent us pictures everyday and cared for them so well. Will definitely add her to my list of sitters for my fur babies for when I need someone to watch them in the future.”
“Great pawsitters! My furbabies had an excellent time with them and their furbabies. The daily updates with lots of photos gave me peace of mind that my doggies were in good hands while I was away. I am happy to have found a new sitter and will be booking with them the next time I go out of town.”
“Diana was awesome, she kept us updated regularly and she was great with our dog! She definitely had a great time and we could tell she was experienced and knew how to take care of our dog. Would definitely recommend and book again!”
“So appreciative of Halina watching my cat Johnnie while I traveled. She put me at so much ease with it being my first long trip away from the island and made me feel like Johnnie would be loved and safe while gone, which she 110% was. Communication was super fast and always helpful and informative and Johnnie was always in good spirits in videos. I will certainly be booking again with her 😊”
“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.”
“Trustworthy, responsive, and more than qualified— that’s all Pei! My husband and I recently needed to leave our dog with somebody while going out of state. Pei responded quickly, communicated with me and eased all my concerns, and shared his extensive background with caring for dogs. He also provided regular updates on how my dog was doing during her stay with him, and I got to see her doing plenty of activity too! All around he provided me immense peace knowing my dog was in great hands. I couldn’t have gotten luckier to find Pei. If you’re looking for an amazing dog sitter, book with him!!”
“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!”
“We were apprehensive at first leaving our two fur babies with someone new, but we had nothing to worry about. We received many photo and video updates on how they were adjusting, eating, sleeping, and playing. Yiye, Ta, Irene, & Pica, thank you for making them a part of your family!”

“Kaliyah did an amazing job taking care of my cats for a full week! She communicated regularly, sent multiple pictures, and made the whole process so smooth by coordinating both pickup and drop-off. My cats were clearly well cared for, and I had complete peace of mind while I was away. I definitely look forward to booking with her again!”
“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.”
About: I got a dog over 6 years ago and have been her primary caretaker, I’ve also puppy sat family members dogs in the past and have a lot of knowledge around reactive dogs I’m currently taking care of a family member for my job so I am available for daily walks as well as puppy and cat sitting! I’ll always treat your animals with love and their best interest at heart. I always make sure animals don’t get into sneaky trouble like they tend too.
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.
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.
“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.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, rabbits, cats, lizards and snakes through the years. I’m told I have “a way,” but I like to think I just try to speak in an even but engaged tone, play when it’s time to play, and if rambunctious, use calming techniques to correct. I am retired so I have a flexible routine. I like to stay engaged with my community and help others keep their companions healthy and happy. I have adopted 3 rambunctious strays that are still settling in, so care in my home could only be on a special arrangement basis. In a client’s home, I would respect all directions given and ensure emergency numbers are provided.
About: A few of my friends got cats during covid and I started watching them when the world opened up and My friend's started traveling again. I can feed cats, clean litter boxes, and give them some play time. One set of kittens I took hiking in their outdoor backpack!
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: 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!
“I’m so grateful for Sarai. She came through and was able to keep our cat while our condo was being fumigated. She did this on short notice and even dropped the cat off for us afterwards. My cat was happy and relaxed when he got home so I know he was well taken care of. Thank you Sarai!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: I have been housesitting and pet watching for over 20 years (I cared for neighbors animals since Highschool). I prefer to go in home so the animal(s) are more comfortable. I have a 2 year old bunny (Thor) who gets along well with other animals but is also happy to stay in his crate away from more aggressive animals if need. I have watched many cats, dogs, and homes over the past 20 years. Most recently, I cared for 2 mid sized dogs for just over a year while their family lived abroad in Germany. I now have more time and would like to continue caring for other animals when their owners travel from Hawaii. I've lived on Oahu for just over 12 years and am happy to travel to most locations on island but reside Windward so there maybe an additional fee. I would consider outer island during school breaks and on weekends. I've been working as a tele school psychologist for this year (over 12 years exp) and am well versed in positive behavior supports (as they work well with children as well as animals). I now telework so have time to spend with the animals during the day as well as evenings and mornings like I previously did. I prefer to stay in home. I am available 3/6-3/26 Oahu I do not care for pets in my home. My bunny, Thor, comes with me and this generally provides entertainment and great photo opps for the pets we watch.
About: Hello Everyone ! My name is Crystal, I’ve been living on island for about a year now. Wanting to find some side jobs to help time pass by. I had a childhood black lab named Spunky for over 10 years, so I have a lot of experience and love in the dog department . However, I am open to all animals! There is plenty of love to go around lol . Would love the opportunity to take care of your loved ones , after all they are like family ❤️ Extremely flexible schedule currently, any time doesn’t matter for me at the moment . Week days are preferred however, weekends are not a problem . I take care of all animals as if they are my own. I have not had animals in my home personally, I typically will go to the owners home for walks or watch their pets overnight !

Perfect for high energy dogs - Punaluu
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.

About: 🌺 I will be on hiatus July-August for surgery and recovery🌺 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.

The only place i fully trust with my babies!! They always take such good care and i never have to worry when they are over there. Thank you again’ :)”

About: I have a dog of my own that I care for and pet sit for friends regularly! The pets I have cared for have become my pet friends and I go visit them even when I’m not sitting. Giving medication for pets is part of the daily routine with my pets so that will not be a problem if your fur baby needs to take medication. Daily walks and a lot of TLC is what I can provide for your pet along with any other needs that they may have. You can trust me to take care of your pet as well as I take care of my own because I understand how precious they are in our lives and it isn’t easy when you aren’t around them!! I am available most days all day to provide full care for your pet. Whatever their needs are I am able to be there for them and am sure to update my availability calendar to keep it up to date. I have a fenced in back yard with a friendly mini-schnauzer that pets can play in but they are also allowed in the house with easy access through a doggy door. I am home all day so if they can’t use the doggy door I can let them in and out of the house. If I’m your home I will do whatever they are used to.
“Very friendly and accommodating of a trip to San Antonio. Received pictures of the dogs playing and updated throughout the stay. Highly recommend. Great fenced yard to play in and inside playroom to cool off. Would book again if in the area.”

I do have a fenced yard to let them out play or do their necesites. I have 2 kids with me and no other pets besides yours! I will be walking them around the neighborhood for exercise every day 3 or 4 times a day .
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. I have no kids on property.
“This is our first time with Rover and appreciated Christine doing a meet and greet and then trying a last minute visit the following day. Bishop enjoyed hanging with her fur babies and we are so relieved to have someone watch Bishop. He is a shelter pup and needs a little more love when we are not around.”
“Keyshla has gone above and beyond for our fur babies! We are very thankful for the care she provides and we know our dogs are always safe when we drop them off to her. Thank you so much Keyshla!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes for over 15 years and have extensive experience providing loving, attentive care. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and dependable to care for your pets. I currently have a dog named Dolly, who is a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet with the same patience, attention, and care I would want for my own. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to provide reliable and attentive pet care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship to help pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pets in my home receive plenty of attention, supervision, and exercise throughout the day. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I take dogs on regular walks and use a secure backyard lead for safe outdoor time, bathroom breaks, and fresh air. I always prioritize pets’ comfort, safety, and routines to help them feel at home.
“Truffles always enjoys his time with Sierra & family. They engage all day, with lots of play, walks and naps. He always comes home so happy, with many pictures to show his fun times in the house. Definitely recommend!”

About: I have taken care of pets for over 10 years now, both my own and for family or friends!

I am available 24 hours a day/7 days week to accommodate your and your dog’s needs. I understand that you want to spend every possible minute with your fur baby. Whether you have an early flight or a red eye to catch, I can make your trip less stressful by working around your schedule.

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.

About: I got a dog over 6 years ago and have been her primary caretaker, I’ve also puppy sat family members dogs in the past and have a lot of knowledge around reactive dogs I’m currently taking care of a family member for my job so I am available for daily walks as well as puppy and cat sitting! I’ll always treat your animals with love and their best interest at heart. I always make sure animals don’t get into sneaky trouble like they tend too.
“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 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.
“Mary Ann did such a great job with Elle! Very grateful to her for her attention to detail and loving care. She is dependable, communicative and obviously knowledgeable about caring for dogs. She will be the first person I call if I need day care for Elle again.”
About: I love animals and believe they deserve nothing but love and care. I have had dogs and cats throughout my whole life and have always been responsible for their care. I helped train my parents beautiful Old English Bull Dog puppy when they received him when he was just 13 weeks old :) he is a very intelligent dog. I also took care of our very old and sick long time family dog of 17 years who I had known since I was born, he had arthritis, pulse he was blind with cataracts. I love all other types of animals as well as pups! I can't wait to meet your furry friends!! I’m currently a stay at home mom, which gives me the flexibility to be there for your fur babies! Also I go on walks and to parks an awful lot so they will get to play and have plenty of exercise. I have a fenced yard and near the beach so we can always go on nice long walks. I love making sure they have what they need and plenty of toys.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, rabbits, cats, lizards and snakes through the years. I’m told I have “a way,” but I like to think I just try to speak in an even but engaged tone, play when it’s time to play, and if rambunctious, use calming techniques to correct. I am retired so I have a flexible routine. I like to stay engaged with my community and help others keep their companions healthy and happy. I have adopted 3 rambunctious strays that are still settling in, so care in my home could only be on a special arrangement basis. In a client’s home, I would respect all directions given and ensure emergency numbers are provided.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was very young, with the exception of snakes and spiders. I took care of dogs through Rover when my spouse was unavailable. My spouse was a professional explosive detection dog handler. I work from home and my spouse is a stay-at-home dad, so someone is home to take care of your fur babies, make sure they get played with and taken out for potty breaks. I have a very large yard that is completely fenced so your pet can enjoy off-leash time all day. Your pet will be able to come and go inside and outside as they please. Your pet will be played with and any obedience training will be reinforced. Your pet will be taken outside for a break and played with.
About: I got my first dog when I was 4 and started dog sitting for neighbors when I was 8. I worked with a group when I lived in Kansas City that did short term in-home dog fostering for 1 day to two weeks. My puppy experience comes from a few of my friends having puppies, but adult dogs are my favorite. I work full time from home, and can schedule walks in between meetings during the day. If the dog(s) are up for it I would love to take them hiking, SUPing, kayaking, to the beach, and to hang out with my friend's dogs. I prefer to keep the dog on a similar schedule to what they are used to and not overwhelm them with new experiences while their owners are gone. Please provide me with the needed information of your dog's routine.
“Awesome walker and sitter! Makes your pet feel very loved and is great at communicating when she has questions! Highly recommend for anyone loooking for a sitter.”
About: Dog sitting perfectly fits my active lifestyle. I'll treat your small/medium pup like family, providing the walks, fetch, and dedicated care I love giving. As a teacher on summer break, my schedule is highly flexible. Pups easily join my morning and evening walks, and I have plenty of open time between errands, reading, and relaxing to provide dedicated attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I care for your dog in your home by sticking closely to their established routine. Because my own living space is dog-free, I treat your home with the utmost respect while ensuring your pup gets plenty of personalized care, structured exercise, safe playtime, and tons of love.
About: I’ve take care of many dogs during my live and I have training my own pets. I will love your pets like if they will mine. I will have plenty of time during they week and weekends to take care of any type of pets. During week I can take care of them after noon. I will be very alert during my visit and will try to make fell loved during the time that the owner is away. During there stay in my house I will play and give them a walk every day in multiples occasion.

Pei responded quickly, communicated with me and eased all my concerns, and shared his extensive background with caring for dogs. He also provided regular updates on how my dog was doing during her stay with him, and I got to see her doing plenty of activity too! All around he provided me immense peace knowing my dog was in great hands. I couldn’t have gotten luckier to find Pei. If you’re looking for an amazing dog sitter, book with him!!”
“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!”

From daily routines to overall care, everything was managed seamlessly and without a single issue.
