Highly-rated overnight sitters - Pupukea

“Always a wonderful stay for my dog at Tracey's. I feel so fortunate to have her! My dog didn't even look back at me when I dropped her off which is rare!”

“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.”

“Joel was great with my mini Australian shepherd! He sent lots of photos that gave us peace of mind that our dog was doing great and was so well cared for! 😊 Thanks Joel!”
“Christine took excellent care our two dogs. She willingly gave him antibiotics and cooked food for one of the dogs who was recovering from an infection. She followed the vets instructions carefully. Thank you Christine!”

“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:)”

“Scarlett had a great time & did not want to leave her! She was able to adjust her schedule with short notice and would send photos periodically as an update ! Definitely a repeat customer here ! Thanks again !”

“Yiye & Ta, were wonderful!!!. They went above and beyond when Bella was not feeling good. They cooked for her chicken and rice to make her feel better. Bella had a great time with Pica and felt at home.”


“Paige is absolutely wonderful, her personality puts you at ease. She took good care of my fur baby and treated her as her own. Really appreciated the daily updates with pictures!!! My first time using Rover, and it was a very positive experience.”

“Jacque was very accommodating on my close in booking. She had great communication throughout my trip and my dog seemed happy at her house. Highly recommend her and would love to book again.”

“Greg was great! Poppy loved being there and loved his dog Zephyr! Greg sent photos everyday and I could tell Poppy was having a great time. Greg was easy to deal with and has a great dog property. I would book with him again.”

“Samantha was absolutely wonderful! In fact, she's such a great sitter that I almost hesitate to write this review because selfishly, I'd love to keep her availability to myself! This was our very first time leaving our puppy with a sitter, and naturally we were a little nervous. Samantha immediately put our minds at ease. Before our trip, she took the time to meet with us and show us where our puppy would be staying in her home, which made us feel so much more comfortable and confident. While we were away for nearly two weeks, Samantha kept us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos. It meant so much to know our puppy was happy, safe, and well cared for while we were gone. What impressed us even more was that she actually helped reinforce our puppy's potty training during our time away. We came home to a puppy who had continued making progress, which was such a pleasant surprise! Samantha is truly a sweetheart, and it's obvious that she has a genuine love for animals and a heart for what she does. The care, attention, and affection she showed our puppy exceeded all of our expectations. We are so grateful we came across Samantha and couldn't recommend her more highly. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Kyrie and her family were amazing with our little frenchie. Super good with communication. Pictures and videos sent and always quickly replied to texts. He loved the yard to run around in. Highly recommend. Would trust her with any dog anytime.”

“2nd time I’ve used her and she did amazing! She was so considerate the entire time she had my boy and sent so many pictures of him being absolutely pampered!!! She literally made him a mini pancake, like I will 100% be keeping her around!! He came home yesterday and I’m not even kidding when I tell you he’s going through withdraw from being pampered with her!”

“Leaving our dogs with someone new can be nerve-racking, but Pei completely exceeded our expectations and made us feel at ease right away. We did an overnight stay with him first to make sure our dogs were a good fit with him and his family, and we’re so glad we did—it couldn’t have gone better! After having some past trauma leaving our dogs in someone else’s care, it was such a relief to finally feel confident knowing our dogs were in experienced, capable hands. Booking with Pei was easy, his communication was excellent, and he kept us updated with pictures, which we loved. We were beyond happy with how well he handled both of our rescue dogs, especially our Doberman, who is the newest addition to our family. It was very clear that Pei is incredibly knowledgeable with dogs and truly understands their needs. The best part? He’s completely comfortable with larger dogs! It’s so hard to find sitters who welcome big dogs, and we are so thankful we found Pei. We would 100% book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and caring dog sitter.”


“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.”

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

“We left Lucky with Emma for 2 weeks. Our first to be away from each other for that long. We missed her alot but Emma regularly updated us with videos and photos which we very much appreciated. Usually shy, we saw that she was having a great time and even made a best friend. We came back to a more outgoing and relaxed Lucky! Thanks auntie Emma!”

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

“Amanda is the absolute best! We feel so safe having her take care of our dogs, and she loves them like they’re her own. We’ve book her in every time we go away and it’s been perfect every time. Thank you so much!”


About: I’ve mostly cared for dogs but I also really love cats and quieter pet environments. Friends, neighbors and family have trusted me to help take care of their pets while they were away, whether that was feeding, walks, spending time with them or staying overnight. I’m calm, responsible, attentive and I genuinely try to make animals feel safe and comfortable around me. I understand every pet has their own routine and personality and I always try to respect that.
About: I love animals and feel comfortable with them. I am responsible, efficient and reliable. I have lots of experience and references. Joy and play included. I have part-time work right now so i am home often and have time to care for your furries. I also have a responsible son who's 16 and available to help. I have a large fenced in yard for your pet happily roam. Also love taking walks around the neighborhood. No other pets on the property.
About: Hello Pet Parents! My name’s Samantha, currently I am a single mom to an 19 month old boy and also a dog-mama to my Shih tzu named Cheech! I have had dogs my entire life and have been doing Rover for many years now. I take pride in my work and take it seriously, if I was going to have someone watch Cheech I would want to know they are trustworthy, diligent, understanding, and patient. So that is how I am with the pets in my care. I'll do anything to make a pups tail wag!! 🐾💝 I currently am a stay at home mom of one. I have the ability yo keep your pups schedule on track while they are in my care. I only work one a day week away from home ( I come home in my lunch break) and do property management from home on the side. My sister watches my son on the one day that I do go to work, so if your pet stays with me I would always be around or my sister would be at my home to let your pet outside, walk them, and care for their needs. :) I do not normally host more than one families pet/s at once but if I was going to, I would let both owners know before doing so and only with dogs that I had watched before and know that there would not be any issues. I offer pet/house sitting, I need to be able to bring my son with me & if possible I like to bring my shih tzu Cheech with me to boarding jobs. (But I do understand sometimes that isn’t an option. I don’t want any dog or cat feeling like their home is being invaded.) I have a small yard at my home to take dogs out but there isnt much running space if your dog is high energy. Luckily I do have a bike path right near by we can walk to for walks! If I have multiple dogs staying with me I do have the ability to separate them if necessary during eating, sleeping, or when I do run errands.
About: Aloha! I’m Lisa, and caring for pets has always been a joyful part of my life. I grew up with a family dog from my teenage years through early adulthood, and I was responsible for feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love. More recently, I’ve been trusted to pet sit for friends in their homes, making sure their pets felt safe and cared for while their owners were away. What sets me apart is the attention I give to both pets and their people—I’m happy to send photos, video updates, or do video calls so you feel comfortable and connected while you’re away. Because I work from home in Human Resources, I can be with your pet throughout the day, giving them companionship, care, and attention. I pride myself on being loving, reliable, and attentive to details—whether that’s sticking to a routine, noticing changes in behavior, or giving extra cuddles. My goal is for you to return home to a happy, healthy, and well-cared-for pet. Since I work from home full-time, I can easily integrate pet care into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which means I can provide regular walks, play breaks, and plenty of attention between my work tasks. Mornings and evenings are flexible for longer walks, and I’m available on weekends as well. Your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches—I’ll be around to keep them company, stick to their routine, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make safety, trust, and comfort my top priorities. I follow all instructions carefully—feeding schedules, walks, medications, and play routines—so your pet stays on their normal schedule and feels secure. I’m mindful about keeping your home safe as well, always checking that doors, gates, and leashes are secure. I know that inviting someone into your home is a matter of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I respect your space by keeping things tidy, cleaning up after pets, and leaving everything as I found it. While I don’t provide general housekeeping or cleaning services, I do make sure food and water areas are refreshed and that your pet’s space is clean and comfortable. You can also count on me for open communication—I’ll send photos, updates, or video calls if you’d like—so you feel reassured that your pet and home are in caring, reliable hands. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own: with love, patience, and attention.
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: Assistant pet trainer, positive reinforcement methods, responsible and reliable. Very active and love to go on walks, most of all I look for best interests of others. I’m currently working part time in town as a restaurant server for the dinner time so I have plenty of time to take care of your adorable loved ones! I am very active and love to go one walks so they would join me, I am also an early riser! I have a fenced yard, treats in my house for positive reinforcement!

“Royce, as always, was absolutely wonderful. My cats love her and she's very good with them, getting them to play and enjoy treat time. She's also very prompt and responsive and has been a joy to work with. Not to mention she takes some of the best pictures of my cats I've ever seen. 5/5 stars!”

About: I grew up with 4 rescue/special needs dogs (8 total throughout my life). I have also had many dog sitting jobs for family friends and neighbors! I’m well equipped to handle any and all of your needs. I work remote and am also an online student studying biology. This means currently I am fully available for all your doggy care needs! As long as there’s enough advance notice I am usually always able to schedule whatever needs you have! I won’t be able to board or care for your dog at my own house as we already have 2 dogs here! However, I am completely willing to care for your pet in their own home which is an environment they’re already comfortable in!
About: With over 30 years of dedicated pet care, I've had the joy of raising puppies and hold a special place in my heart for our wise senior companions – I have two of my own! I understand the unique needs of every dog and am skilled in administering medications (pills included), managing specific feeding schedules, and catering to their preferred choice of exercise, whether it's a gentle stroll or a more energetic adventure. Plus, with flexible walking hours starting as early as 4 am – the early bird gets the worm! – I can ensure your dog gets their steps in whenever best suits their routine. Your furry family member will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own. Being just one block from the beach at Aweoweo, we love treating our pups (and yours!) to some refreshing "swimmies" and sunshine! Imagine your dog enjoying the sand between their paws and a dip in the ocean (always with safety as our top priority, of course!). As home-based business owners with central working hours, our schedule is incredibly flexible. We're early birds, up by 4 am and available until 9 pm, easily fitting in early morning holoholo before it gets too warm. Because we're always local, your dog will have fantastic access to the outdoors throughout the day. I pride myself on my ability to accommodate pretty much any request. Need an extra early walk? A late-night potty break? Specific playtime preferences? Just let me know! Im here to create a schedule that perfectly suits your dog's needs and your peace of mind. Your dog's well-being is my absolute priority. At our tucked-away fourplex, your furry friend will have plenty of room to roam and play in our unfenced yard. I believe in providing a stimulating and engaging environment, whether it's through leisurely walking in the scenic Wailua neighborhoods or exciting outings in our "top dog jeep" to explore the town's bike paths with Ken and me. Beach days, walks in nature, or cozy cuddle sessions on the couch with a good movie – your dog will be treated like one of my own and integrated into our daily island life. Just like my Tucker and Mel, your pup is welcome on the furniture and even in bed for ultimate comfort! You can trust that your dog will receive attentive, personalized care. With over 30 years of experience as a dedicated pet parent, I understand the importance of routine and will adhere to your dog's specific needs and preferences, ensuring they feel secure and happy in my care and Kens. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and enriching environment for your precious pup.
“Annabelle was great! She was available right away which was good we had an emergency. The kittens loved her. She keeped us updated and sent pic for us. Would highly recommend.”


“Paige was great! I had an emergency and needed someone to check on my cat the same day I requested to book! Paige responded right away and was able to check on her! So grateful!”

“Carl watched my 1yo cat while I was away for two weeks. From the start he made it very easy to coordinate and the meet and greet went great. He ensured that I got updates every day I was away and communicated very well. It was obvious he has a love for animals and treated my cat with so much care. I would recommend Carl and would definitely use his services again!”


“Renata was great with taking care of Sprout, Fluffy and Phoebe. This was our second rebook with Renata Renata did a great job trying to get my antisocial cat, Sprout, to eat. Sprout is such a mama’s girl that she has a tendency to stay out and not come inside for food when I’m gone. Renata did her best to tempt her and put her bowl in different eating locations, closer to where she was seeing her hide out. I always know what a good job Renata does because both Phoebe and Fluffy are super chill when I arrive back home and not stressed. Thank you Renata 😊”

“Daija was amazing with our pups! She was very communicative with us while we were out of town and sent lots of cute videos of our pups having fun!! Definitely will be rebooking ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Zoro had a Blast with Lily and her dog Kiko! He was in a great mood when I picked him up and seemed exhausted. Lily sent pictures and was very easy to communicate with. Mahalo!”

“Mary was very kind and took time to acquaint herself with my dog Presley, an 8 year old high(ish) maintenance Shih Tsu. She has two other dogs and a cat that are also very kind and patient with other animals too. The layout for pet sitting is wonderful, with a large covered deck and large yard to explore. Presley was very happy both before and after his visit and I have been very pleased with the entire process. I would recommend Mary highly and I will be using her on a regular basis.”

“Olive loves her new daycare! Theresa provides and safe and big home for the doggies to run around and play, and to relax. Olive has never been so happy and comfortable at a daycare before. Theresa is also very communicative, and sends a lot of pictures of updates throughout the day. We are able to drop off Olive early in the morning before work, which is a huge help. She also made a new friend that was being dog-sat, and they had an instant connection. We are excited for them to hangout again and for Olive to meet new dogs.

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: I have plenty of sitting experience ranging from short stays of 3-4 days to long stays for more than 30 days in Europe for friends and family (first time turning my hobby as a job, if you need recommendation don't hesitate to ask me). Dogs, cats, I get along with them all and can handle any necessary household task. To me pets are members of the family. My purpose is to keep things running smoothly while you're away and provide necessary care. I am extremely responsible and resourceful, so I am usually good at quickly fitting into a new place. I'm also a home and flat owner so I understand the responsibilities that come with both and am super tidy and considerate. I'm an international (from Portugal/Switzerland) part time student at KCC, since I have a lot of virtual classes I spend a lot of time staring at my computer screen and greatly appreciate it when I’ve animals about to distract me. I’ve had some house-sitting cats take the role of supervisor very seriously over the years, and my class mates always enjoy the feline interruptions during video meetings. Animals have always inspired me and spending time with them is one of my favorite things. I’m happy to answer any questions you have, so please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

About: Aloha! I’m Lisa, and caring for pets has always been a joyful part of my life. I grew up with a family dog from my teenage years through early adulthood, and I was responsible for feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love. More recently, I’ve been trusted to pet sit for friends in their homes, making sure their pets felt safe and cared for while their owners were away. What sets me apart is the attention I give to both pets and their people—I’m happy to send photos, video updates, or do video calls so you feel comfortable and connected while you’re away. Because I work from home in Human Resources, I can be with your pet throughout the day, giving them companionship, care, and attention. I pride myself on being loving, reliable, and attentive to details—whether that’s sticking to a routine, noticing changes in behavior, or giving extra cuddles. My goal is for you to return home to a happy, healthy, and well-cared-for pet. Since I work from home full-time, I can easily integrate pet care into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which means I can provide regular walks, play breaks, and plenty of attention between my work tasks. Mornings and evenings are flexible for longer walks, and I’m available on weekends as well. Your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches—I’ll be around to keep them company, stick to their routine, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make safety, trust, and comfort my top priorities. I follow all instructions carefully—feeding schedules, walks, medications, and play routines—so your pet stays on their normal schedule and feels secure. I’m mindful about keeping your home safe as well, always checking that doors, gates, and leashes are secure. I know that inviting someone into your home is a matter of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I respect your space by keeping things tidy, cleaning up after pets, and leaving everything as I found it. While I don’t provide general housekeeping or cleaning services, I do make sure food and water areas are refreshed and that your pet’s space is clean and comfortable. You can also count on me for open communication—I’ll send photos, updates, or video calls if you’d like—so you feel reassured that your pet and home are in caring, reliable hands. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own: with love, patience, and attention.

I grew up around a doxin (got him as a pup) and a boxer/mix (rescued). But now that I am moved out of my home and in my own apartment I have gotten my own little baby, an Australian Shepherd, 7 months old named Zen, we are always on walks, playing fetch and going to the beach he is very active and needs a lot of attention so he would be around too.

About: I love dogs. Just do. I always had a dog growing up, and I’ve owned my dog Eddie for 4 years now. I’ve been pet sitting for as long as I can remember - it was my first job! In addition, I went to school for wildlife biology and have taught pre-veterinary medicine. My childhood dog was diabetic and had a liver issue, so I’m more than comfortable administering shots, pills, and treatments. Also, I’m a pro-walker. My parents say I started walking early, and I’ve been doing it ever since. But in all honesty, I just want to give your dog some attention and pets and would like you to let me.

“Christine took excellent care our two dogs. She willingly gave him antibiotics and cooked food for one of the dogs who was recovering from an infection. She followed the vets instructions carefully. Thank you Christine!”

“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:)”

“Greg was great! Poppy loved being there and loved his dog Zephyr! Greg sent photos everyday and I could tell Poppy was having a great time. Greg was easy to deal with and has a great dog property. I would book with him again.”

“Samantha was absolutely wonderful! In fact, she's such a great sitter that I almost hesitate to write this review because selfishly, I'd love to keep her availability to myself! This was our very first time leaving our puppy with a sitter, and naturally we were a little nervous. Samantha immediately put our minds at ease. Before our trip, she took the time to meet with us and show us where our puppy would be staying in her home, which made us feel so much more comfortable and confident. While we were away for nearly two weeks, Samantha kept us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos. It meant so much to know our puppy was happy, safe, and well cared for while we were gone. What impressed us even more was that she actually helped reinforce our puppy's potty training during our time away. We came home to a puppy who had continued making progress, which was such a pleasant surprise! Samantha is truly a sweetheart, and it's obvious that she has a genuine love for animals and a heart for what she does. The care, attention, and affection she showed our puppy exceeded all of our expectations. We are so grateful we came across Samantha and couldn't recommend her more highly. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“2nd time I’ve used her and she did amazing! She was so considerate the entire time she had my boy and sent so many pictures of him being absolutely pampered!!! She literally made him a mini pancake, like I will 100% be keeping her around!! He came home yesterday and I’m not even kidding when I tell you he’s going through withdraw from being pampered with her!”

“Leaving our dogs with someone new can be nerve-racking, but Pei completely exceeded our expectations and made us feel at ease right away. We did an overnight stay with him first to make sure our dogs were a good fit with him and his family, and we’re so glad we did—it couldn’t have gone better! After having some past trauma leaving our dogs in someone else’s care, it was such a relief to finally feel confident knowing our dogs were in experienced, capable hands. Booking with Pei was easy, his communication was excellent, and he kept us updated with pictures, which we loved. We were beyond happy with how well he handled both of our rescue dogs, especially our Doberman, who is the newest addition to our family. It was very clear that Pei is incredibly knowledgeable with dogs and truly understands their needs. The best part? He’s completely comfortable with larger dogs! It’s so hard to find sitters who welcome big dogs, and we are so thankful we found Pei. We would 100% book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and caring dog sitter.”

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

“Samantha has helped us a lot by taking care of our dog while we were out. She sent me the cute pictures of our dog proactively and was pretty flexible in terms of scheduling. I will definitely consider her help again next time ;-)”

“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!”

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

“Tanya and her family took great care of our dogs! They are super friendly and welcoming and have made their home into a safe, comfortable, and fun place for pets to stay. They were very communicative, sending pictures and updates throughout the day, and are very thoughtful about giving your pets all the love and care that they deserve while you are away.”

“Ozzie was a very happy boy during his stay w Angela and her son, Ozzie’s BFF, Ayden. She communicated and sent pictures frequently. She was easy to work with and flexible for changing schedules. Oz is a senior dog and she handled his 3 x a day medications without any issues. I will definitely use Angela’s Rover services in the future.”

“Sherrie was kind, reliable, and responsive throughout the booking. When my dog unexpectedly needed veterinary attention, she handled the situation responsibly, kept me informed, and made sure she was taken care of. I appreciated her communication and willingness to step up when it mattered. Overall a positive experience, and I would book with her again.”

They took her on walks, played with her, let her cuddle with them, they went above and beyond! They sent pictures of her frequently. When we came to pick up my dog, she continued to lay next to the both of them, I know she was so loved while we were gone. Definitely recommend!!”
