“We are new to the island and had been looking for a safe place for our pup to stay overnight while we explore the island. Sarah took great care of our guy. Her home is open and very welcoming/dog friendly, and she has a large yard perfect for running a playing. We would definitely consider leaving S’mores with her again.”
“Alex was great! Roxie had a fun time playing with his dog as well as the other dogs staying there. She was so tired when she got home from having so much fun. I don’t even think she missed us that much while we were gone. He has a nice big fenced back yard for the dogs to run around and play. Alex was able to send us pictures / videos to update us on how she was doing which we appreciated. I will definitely be bringing her back the next time we need a dogsitter!”
“Lucky was well taken care of when I left her with Raye for 2 weeks during Christmas. I received multiple pictures and updates on how she was doing. It was a long time to leave my pup but when I picked her up she seemed happy and healthy”
“Rebecca took really great care of our cute kitty. She really loves and understands cats and dogs. I immediately felt comfortable leaving Olive with Rebecca. Thank you so much!”
“Just a wonderful experience. Kandice is caring and thoughtful with her care of my dog Eevee. I felt that she was loved and in a family environment. Just couldn’t have asked for more. Will use her services again.”
“Okay I was skeptical at first because he had only one review but how come Austin does not have as many reviews as he deserve? I absolutely am glad that I found him. He was just so great. He would send me pictures as often as he could and I could tell my dog was enjoying her time with him for sure in the pictures. Thank you!!”

About: I have loved and trained our own Bernese Mountain Dogs (Germany and Belgium) for over 20 years, and fostered dogs (senior dogs, puppies, and Animal Control rescues) the past 3 years, sometimes taking in dogs who had no reason to trust humans, dogs that learned through our care that comforting routines and training through play helps them to trust again, and leads them to becoming more adoptable dog companions. I believe trust has to be earned with our dogs. Only then, will they let us care for them with love through routines they can count on. I look forward to continuing the routines you have already established with your pupper. I raised our dogs believing every day, every moment is an opportunity for training of basic dog citizen behaviors (come, sit, down, leave it, etc.) through active engagement and play, and daily walks and cuddles. Note: We still welcome in Foster dogs, and hope your non aggressive dog(s) will also be good pup ambassadors in interacting with senior dogs or other fosters. I work remotely part-time from home, and I am retired so aside from short trips away from the house for errands, I am here to care for your dog(s). With our own dogs, we held to a consistent schedule: a morning walk (7-ish), then breakfast, rest (to avoid bloat in large dogs), playtime several times per day in our fenced yard, and an afternoon walk, then dinner. We have a fully fenced yard on 1/4 acre. Potty-trained dogs are welcome in the house and on some covered furniture. We have a 30ʻ deck with an outdoor couch and chairs with with rolling gates to the outer yard. We also have a smaller fenced area for dogs who prefer to be outside in cool shaded grassy areas. I specialize in large non-aggressive dogs. Most of these dogs do not like like to sleep in human beds; I welcome pet guests to bring their own large dog beds for their stays.

“Andrea was so wonderful! She was incredibly patient and loving to our two fosters dogs who were nervous. She earned the trust of both and was able to care for them each day she visited. We are so thankful for her kindness and would recommend her to anyone who is cautious about someone new taking care of their fur babies.”
About: I grew up with indoor and outdoor cats and understand their needs and how different they are from other animals. Particularly their need for love when they want it, and how to give them space while still making them feel loved and engaged. I currently have a wonderful cat named Snape, he is shown in the picture above.
“Regan took excellent care of our cats and our home while we were away! She clearly gave our animals lots of love, and we returned to happy, healthy babies and a clean home. We would definitely have her come again!”
About: Our ohana owns three female rescue cats. We have raised kittens from age 2 months old. We have had several rescue male and female cats throughout the years on our Aina. We have lived on our Aina for 25 years and have been blessed with a few cats who some unfortunaly passed away from old age. We love our cats . They are all outdoor cats. I am comfortable and love indoor cats as well.
About: I’ve been doing a pet sitting for over three years, and this is now my third summer providing pet sitting in Hawaii. During this time, I’ve looked after cats and dogs with different personalities, routines, and needs, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Animals have always been a part of my life. I grew up with both cats and dogs, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m definitely both a cat and a dog person, and I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I also volunteered at an animal shelter, where I helped care for many animals and learned to be patient, attentive, and compassionate. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, or simply have a calm companion nearby, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel happiest. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to create a calm, safe, and loving environment while you’re away. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. Most of my work is done from home, so your pet will rarely be left alone for long periods. Outside of work, I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so I’m always happy to take dogs on walks, play with them, or simply keep them company. I also offer drop-in visits and house sitting, and I always do my best to maintain your pet’s usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. My schedule allows me to provide lots of attention, companionship, and loving care throughout the day. I currently provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and keep their usual routine. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special routines. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while also respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos, so they can feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel relaxed, safe, and well cared for.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Volcano
“I have been consistently impressed how happy my pup is when I pick her up after a day of fun at Natalie's. She is literally "played" out- who knew that was possible? I've told Natalie how impressed I am with how clean she is too. I can't keep her clean in my own yard. An incredible service for our rather remote location. Thank you so much Natalie! You do a great job managing my high energy girl!”
“This is the second time with Dianne watching our dog, and we can’t speak highly enough of her. She’s prompt, terrific with our pup and just a really nice person! We feel so lucky to have found her.”
About: I worked at boarding facility for 4 years as a manager, as well another 2 years with studio animals and rescue dogs. I love dogs and absolutely love taking them for walks, giving them lots of pets, brushing them, giving them the love and affection they deserve. I prefer animals over people honestly. I grew up with 5 dogs and 3 cats. I would always be outside teaching them tricks and egar to share all my love with them. I'm good at administering medications and working with paralyzed and senior dogs. I've also been wonderful at socializing and knowing dog behaviors and patterns. I'd be more then happy to love your dog like my very own, as I know the importance of good care for their well being. I provide all services. Dogs must be good with kids as I have a 7 year old that comes with me everywhere, we homeschool. I priorities my clients animals like my own. I like to schedule my day around the animals needs to ensure the best experience for them as they are alone. I currently do not have a secured yard. All outside visits will be on leash. No dogs will be left alone outside ever. The house and patio are secured and room to run
“I cannot recommend Cheryl highly enough. From the moment we connected, her caring and gentle nature put both me and my dog at ease. Cheryl’s solid experience with dogs is a tremendous asset, and her calm, peaceful home environment provided the perfect setting for my little guy to feel secure. What stands out the most is her remarkable patience; she gave him all the time and understanding he needed to work through his separation anxiety. Drop-offs and pickups were completely seamless, and her attentive care gave me total peace of mind while away. Cheryl is professional, trustworthy, and compassionate—I will definitely be booking with her for all our future needs!”

I love hiking and being outside so your dog will definitely be tired after we go out. Animals and I connect really well. I have a very calm demeanor that dogs & cats get along with. I’m 34 years old and have been a dog walker/sitter for 15+ years. I pay close attention to detail so your fur baby is in save hands. I have two dogs myself so I know all about the love and care they want and need. Let me hangout with your puppers! I’m a dog mom and a freelance wedding/family photographer that works from home.

“Daisy had a great day with Blair! We would definitely have her there again. We popped over for a meet and greet a couple days before and Blair showed us around. It’s a great, simple and secure play space for dogs. We received several pictures over the day which was really nice of her. We will be back :)”

About: I've spent most of my life surrounded by animals, mostly dogs and cats and occasionally some fish in a tank. I am good at following directions for care given to me or written down and am fine to spend a day alone save for a menagerie of animals. Currently, I am taking a gap year from school to work on my art and writing, this means that I have plenty of time available to run around and play with your pets and take care of your plants I am good at following directions for care given to me or written down and am fine to spend a day alone save for a menagerie of animals.
About: For over five decades, I’ve had the joy and privilege of caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. What began as a childhood love for animals has grown into a lifelong passion and profession. From raising litters of puppies to gently bottle-feeding orphaned kittens, and from grooming horses to tending to backyard chickens, I’ve experienced nearly every aspect of pet care. My journey includes extensive hands-on experience with dogs, cats, turtles, fish, horses, cattle, and chickens. Whether it’s managing the complex needs of a senior dog, administering medication to a diabetic cat, or ensuring a horse’s hooves are properly cleaned and checked, I bring a deep well of knowledge, calm confidence, and loving patience to every animal I care for. Throughout my career, I’ve worked on farms, in veterinary settings, and as a full-time pet sitter. I’ve handled emergency situations, special needs animals, and high-energy breeds. I know the importance of not just feeding and walking pets, but understanding their behavior, emotional needs, and unique personalities. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I work part-time remotely from home on my own flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), and personalized care throughout the day. I’m a true homebody who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals, so pets are rarely left alone for long. My flexible lifestyle allows me to adapt to each pet’s routine, ensuring they receive consistent care, love, exercise, and a calm, safe environment where they feel comfortable, secure, and treated like family. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my highest priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I treat every animal with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, calm, and supervised environment where they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and companionship throughout the day. My five friendly, well-socialized pets can provide positive interaction for social animals, while pets who prefer quiet time can enjoy a separate yard or their own space. If your pet is crate-trained or you prefer they be crated during meals, bedtime, or when appropriate, I’m happy to follow their normal routine. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure and reduces stress. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your home and follow your pet’s established schedule as closely as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, bedtime routines, and favorite activities to help your pet feel comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I’ll also make sure doors, gates, and fences remain secure, clean up after your pet, monitor for any changes in behavior or health, and keep you updated while you’re away. Every pet is unique, so I take the time to understand their personality, energy level, medical needs, and comfort level around other animals. Whether your companion loves to play, enjoys quiet naps, or requires extra patience due to age or special needs, I’ll provide personalized care that helps them feel safe, relaxed, and loved. My goal is to earn your trust by providing dependable care and giving you complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is in experienced, compassionate hands.
About: With over 20 years of experience, I’ve learned that a dog doesn’t just need a place to stay—they need a staycation. If you’re looking for a home-away-from-home, I offer a safe, cozy environment where your fur-baby is a pack member, not just a guest. My home features a spacious, half-acre fenced yard, perfect for zoomies and sunbathing. Toby, my dog, is always ready to make new friends and play. Whether you’re heading off-island or just need someone for the day, I’m here to make sure your fur-baby's time away is just as fun as it is safe. Every dog is part of our pack. I provide regular photo and video updates so you have total peace of mind while you're away. Let’s chat! I’d love to meet you and your fur-baby to discuss how I can make your next vacation, their staycation. Message me to schedule a meet-and-greet! Enjoy peace of mind knowing your dog is in loving hands. I’m home all day, providing constant care and a secure, comfortable environment for boarding dogs. For drop-in visits, I’m available for morning and evening sessions to fit your dog’s routine, with flexibility for custom schedules. I travel within a 10 mile radius from Pahoa, covering Keaau and nearby areas, ensuring your pup gets timely care, whether at my home or yours. Guest dogs enjoy a safe, loving home with a fully fenced half-acre yard in Pahoa for playtime, plus a cozy indoor space for rest. I offer frequent play sessions and potty breaks every 0-2 hours. I’m experienced with administering oral and injected medications and handling special needs dogs. My household has no children, and my own sweet 6 lb dog, Toby (neutered), is friendly with other dogs (no females in heat accepted)—he enjoys company, so I especially welcome calm 20 lb (or 21-40 lb) dogs who are already accustomed to living or playing with small dogs. This helps ensure everyone has a relaxed, fun stay!
“Alexander was caring and kind to our little pup, Koa. He was intentional and slow in introducing the dogs to each other. He has a large, fully fenced-in backyard, but for this first dog sitting, he brought Koa out on a leash in the yard and for a walk around the neighborhood. Alexander was accommodating and flexible with pick-up/drop-off times and was available with short notice. We will book with him again.”
“Athena provided updates and photos throughout the day and went the extra mile of taking Dawson out to the park with other doggie friends. Athena is reliable, trustworthy, and kind. I will definitely use her doggy day care and pet sitting services again. Mahalo, Athena!”
About: I’ve spent my life around animals, raising my own dogs and cats and helping care for many others through family, partners, and friends. My experience also includes a range of farm animals and a wild range of pet personalities from childhood. I pay close attention to the subtle behaviors and communications put forth by any animal, and I work with where they tell me theyre at directly. Whether it’s walkies, snack time or something inbetween, I make sure they feel safe, well cared for and understood. I am a musician, artist and online entrepreneur, so as long as your animals dont mind me playing jazzy flamenco, its actually great for my proces to have little adventures and meet fantastic folks, furry or otherwise I care for pets like I do people, with the awareness that each have their own personalities and needs and communication styles and favorite skritch spots.
About: I am dog lover and mom for as long as I can remember. They bring me such joy, solace and comfort without even saying a word! I currently have 4 little 4 babies, all girls! They all have different personalities yet so sweet in their own ways!☺️ I treat and care for any dogs as if they’re my own. I am a caregiver for my mother so I am home pretty much all day everyday. I would provide quality and loving care for your babies like I do my own. I love meeting new doggos and seeing different personalities and building relationships with so I have no doubt you and your fur baby would get along just fine!😃 I have a fenced yard, open green grass to run around and play in. My little ones likes to sun bathe, run or just take in the fresh air. If yours need to be in a crate or likes being out doors, I’m all for it

About: Aloha: My experience goes back to my childhood, where I helped my mother breed and raise Cocker Spaniel puppies. I have always owned animals, including cats during my college years, and our family has cared for goats, dogs, chickens, and rabbits. I am very comfortable with puppies and experienced in fostering their training process, committing to the consistency necessary for a dog's development. Furthermore, I have experience caring for elderly animals at the end of their life cycles, including administering medicine and providing extra care. I have also attended to animals with various injuries. My primary strength is maintaining consistent routines, which I believe is essential for helping an animal feel loved and safe. Regarding equine experience, I have basic ground work skills with horses and donkeys. As my children have been riding since age three, I have had many opportunities to groom, feed, clean hooves, and ensure there are no external injuries from the ground. I appreciate your time and consideration. Aloha: Our ohana owns a 3-acre property on the Big Island, where we are blessed with three outdoor rescue cats, three rescue dogs, and two Nubian goats. As a dedicated mother and wife, caretaking is truly my blueprint. Caring for animals and providing house-sitting services for a "staycation" fits perfectly with my passion for animals. It also provides me with a wonderful opportunity to take some time for myself to relax and rejuvenate. I love to excercise walking dogs is my joy. I love to nurture and cuddle animals . I am a mama of 2o yrs thus I am always detail oriented regarding health. Our ohana is currently blessed with three rescue female dogs, three female outdoor rescue cats, and two Nubian goats. As they are a vital part of our family, they receive a high level of love and nurturing daily. My responsibilities and experience in caring for them include: - Daily Care: Managing daily feeding schedules and ensuring all animals are well-nourished. - Exercise and Training: Taking the dogs on regular walks around the neighborhood and maintaining up-to-date training. I have also personally trained our puppies. - Health and Wellness: Regularly checking all animals for health irregularities, administering natural medications when necessary, and staying current on goat vaccinations. - Goat Management: Grooming the goats, cleaning the barn, and providing them with nutrient-rich supplements. We take great pride in providing a healthy and loving environment for all our rescues. Please let me know if you need any further information.
About: **I AM TRAVELING OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY STARTING 5/20/26 AND WILL BE BLOCKING MY CALENDAR TILL I KNOW I WILL RETURN. ** I travel off island often and can't have my own puppy family, so I will watch your fur-babies like they are my own! I enjoy the adventure of pup-sitting at homes all over the island. I work remotely so am able to be away from my place for long stretches of time. While I like to explore the local areas I stay in, I will mostly be snuggled up with your fur-babies typing away. I am a veteran with Rover- In fact I have been pet-sitting before Rover existed using Craigslist. I have a huge love for all animals and am very experienced with caring for different types of animals and breeds. I am patient, and gentle with a huge heart for animals. I understand every household has different culture. I always try and mimic all the rules of the home. Pets not allowed on the couch? no problem. Dogs like to sleep in the bed with owners? I am an expert puppy snugger. Perhaps the best. I will try and reinforce all commands and rules so there is a seamless transition upon your return. When dog-sitting in your home I will leave it better than I found it and happily respect boundaries and house rules. * My property is in Hilo but I am open to sitting at homes all over the island. In fact, I love to! I will text picture updates to my clients so they feel comforted that their sweetheart is being loved on. Why I love dog sitting: I had a Golden Retriever rescue for over 15 years till he passed 10 years ago. I travel a lot and didn't think it was fair to get another dog, but have been pet sitting since. I LOVE having dog energy still around... and the friendships I have made with my puppy parents. For my lifestyle it's the best of both worlds! I work remotely so am very flexible with my schedule and love having pets around to love on while exploring new and interesting locations on this beautiful island. My place is in Hilo but am open to doing pet sit stays all around the Big Island. Initial meeting can be done with a zoom call before meet and greet if too far from my area. I can also do house drop in visits if it coordinates with my location at the time needed. Right now I am primarily house sitting since my property does not have a fenced yard. I will match your schedule as best as possible and take care of your place the way you desire.

About: I have loved and trained our own Bernese Mountain Dogs (Germany and Belgium) for over 20 years, and fostered dogs (senior dogs, puppies, and Animal Control rescues) the past 3 years, sometimes taking in dogs who had no reason to trust humans, dogs that learned through our care that comforting routines and training through play helps them to trust again, and leads them to becoming more adoptable dog companions. I believe trust has to be earned with our dogs. Only then, will they let us care for them with love through routines they can count on. I look forward to continuing the routines you have already established with your pupper. I raised our dogs believing every day, every moment is an opportunity for training of basic dog citizen behaviors (come, sit, down, leave it, etc.) through active engagement and play, and daily walks and cuddles. Note: We still welcome in Foster dogs, and hope your non aggressive dog(s) will also be good pup ambassadors in interacting with senior dogs or other fosters. I work remotely part-time from home, and I am retired so aside from short trips away from the house for errands, I am here to care for your dog(s). With our own dogs, we held to a consistent schedule: a morning walk (7-ish), then breakfast, rest (to avoid bloat in large dogs), playtime several times per day in our fenced yard, and an afternoon walk, then dinner. We have a fully fenced yard on 1/4 acre. Potty-trained dogs are welcome in the house and on some covered furniture. We have a 30ʻ deck with an outdoor couch and chairs with with rolling gates to the outer yard. We also have a smaller fenced area for dogs who prefer to be outside in cool shaded grassy areas. I specialize in large non-aggressive dogs. Most of these dogs do not like like to sleep in human beds; I welcome pet guests to bring their own large dog beds for their stays.
