Dog Walking Waialae-Kahala

“Kristie was a great fit for my shy pup that is especially nervous with new people coming into the house. Kristie took the time to do a meet & greet before their first dog walk date, she was patient when my pup was hesitant to be touched, and built trust quickly so they were able to go out for a quick walk. Thankful for Kristie's great attitude and will definitely go to her for my dog walking needs in the future!”

“Jordan is a wonderful sitter/walker!! We were so excited to find her, and my dog Roxy (who has very big opinions) loved her from the start. She's been lovely to arrange with, is a great communicator, and has been super reliable and accommodating of our schedule. I know that Roxy is always going to be safe and having fun when she gets to go out with Jordan, which has been such incredible support to have while I'm working. I trust Jordan entirely with my home as well, and she's great about coming in and getting Roxy completely sorted when I'm stuck in work meetings. Roxy gets back with the biggest smile on her face every time!”

About: What makes me stand out is that my business is insured for the safety and health of all pets in my care. I stay in frequent communication with pet owners to ensure that their beloved pet is safe, comfortable and shown the same love and care as they are accustomed to. I have cared for senior dogs and pay close attention to any behaviors or signs of distress that deviate from what their owners say is their norm. I have a car and have experience with vet er for my own guineapigs and am able to take immediate steps to get pets any vet care they need. I have taken care of dogs, cats and guineapigs. Drop off Time: ** For new clients, please drop off dogs prior to 5pm to allow pet time to settle in before night time. I work from home doing basic remote accounting work while I finish my online courses to pursue my CPA. I am home most of the time aside from stepping out to grocery shop and enjoy beautiful hawaii here and there. It is important that all dogs in my care are crate trained for their safety when I must make short trips out, lasting no longer than 3 hours, averaging 2 hours. (no dog will be crated that has not been crate trained. Dogs not showing any signs of destructive separation anxiety, such as scratching at doors, will not need to be crate trained. Dogs can be expected to be walked at 6am for 30 to 45 minutes depending on how much they like to sniff around. Then another potty break at 10am, 2pm another longer walk at 5:30pm and a final potty break between 8-9pm before bed. I always make sure dogs pee and poop the amount of times is normal for them and keep taking them outside until they go successfully. Night time is usually 9pm-10pm. Dogs that need extra toy play time get to play, fresh water ready for the night. For safety, my business is insured so all pets in my care are covered in any emergencies. The main area dogs will be at is in the living room safe from all things they may be tempted to chew on, knock over or swallow. There is lots of natural light and fresh pacific breeze coming off the mountains into my apartment that dogs love to sploot out on cool tile by the screen doors. Makes for excellent photos! Leashes and harnesses: I inspect all equipment clients provide as pet safety on walks is my top priority. Please insure that you provide safe collars, harnesses and leashes that will ensure your dog will be safe on walks. This means that they cannot slip out of their harness or collar and run off. On Walks: Regardless of your dog's past experiences with other dogs, I will refrain from allowing your dog interact with any dogs unless specifically authorized. I also watch for dogs sniffing around for dangerous "treats" and keep provided treats for if a dog grabs something they are not suppose to. Dogs will never be off leash in my care for any moment of time. This is to keep my insurance on them intact and will make sure that they safe.

“Mike did a great job tiring out our 11 month pup, Kitt while we were stuck in quarantine! She came back as happy as can be and will be snoozing the rest of the day!”

About: I'm amazing with animals. (Dogs specifically.) I can say this confidently, because I'm able to understand and reciprocate communication without a single word being used. I've been attacked before, and stayed because I understand that misbehavior probably has a deeper issue than just wanting to cause pain. - Simply put. I love seeing animals happy within a loving environment. But enough with the bragging and sob stories.😂 If you need a walker, a babysitter, or someone to love the bad behavior out of your furbaby, please reach out! I have 100% open availability. I'm currently working on breaking into the freelance lifestyle, so my flexibility allows for last-minute changes and needs! Open to all days and times! I live in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful but unfenced yard. Your place is honestly (probably) better than mine. I'm a single independent woman with both professional and personal references - can be available to sit at the owner's location with ease of mind guaranteed!

About: hi im kylee. I am currently 22 years old and have had pets my entire life, including dogs, cats, and chickens. I helped care for my dog and her six puppies from birth until they were rehomed to loving families, which gave me experience caring for dogs at every stage of life. I’ve owned and cared for breeds including pit bull mixes, frenchies, pomeranians, schnauzer, dachshunds, italian greyhounds, chihuahuas and staffordshire bull terriers, so I’m comfortable with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Although I’m new to professional dog walking, what makes me different is the genuine care and attention I give to animals. I recently lost my last dog (staffie 🥺) due to old age, and spending time with dogs again is something that means a lot to me personally. I understand how important pets are to families, and I would treat every dog with patience, kindness, and care as if they were my own. I’m currently available on weekends, Saturdays and Sundays anytime after 11am. Also open to accommodating different schedules and last-minute bookings whenever possible, and I just ask for at least (a couple hours to 1-day notice). Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or a slower relaxed pace, I’m happy to match their needs and energy level. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, routine, and energy level so I can care for them in the way they’re most comfortable with. I’m very gentle, patient, and understanding, especially with shy, energetic, or older dogs. I also prefer walking later in the day so the pavement isn’t too hot for their paws and make sure they stay hydrated and comfortable during walks.

About: I absolutely love animals and I’ve owned many animals throughout my whole life. From chickens to horses, I know how to take care of animals. Many neighbors have trusted me to take care of their houses and pets while they are away. I’m currently not working, and my schedule is pretty much entirely open. I have lots of time to spend taking care of your animals!! ❤️ I don’t have a fenced yard, however, I have a fenced dog park close by and lots of room to walk and play with any animal that needs it!! If I am taking care of your animals in your home, I would simply need instructions to follow :)

About: After the death of our beloved dog, our family decided to take a break from dog ownership to heal and rest a bit. I have had dogs (usually more than 1 at a time) my whole life! Pet sitting is my way of loving on dogs during this busy stage of life when I cannot have my own. I would love to shower your dog with lots of love and attention! We do have a kitten in our home. She has adjusted very well to having dogs around. We are a homeschool family and are at home or near home most every day. I would never have to leave your pet for any extended period of time. Not only do we have a fenced in yard, but also live walking distance to a couple of beautiful parks, beaches, and a small dog park. Please be aware that I do have small children. Ages 3, 6, 10, & 12. I will love your pet like my own! Your beloved pet will have snuggles and pets and enjoy walks outside to our local park and dog park if you approve. I live in a beautiful area and love to be outside with furry friends.

About: Aloha! I’m Kristy. I have been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, and I've loved every minute of it. My life has always been centered around pets, from growing up with my family’s dogs and cats to regularly watching my friends' pups. I treat every animal I meet as if they were my own, providing a high level of love, attention, and specialized care. I'm an active person and love being outdoors. Whether it’s a long neighborhood walk, a trip to the dog park, or a swim at the beach, I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of exercise and fresh air. I'm experienced with specific needs, vet check-ups, and managing strict dietary restrictions (I'm even happy to cook specialized meals if required!). I’m more than happy to help with your feline friends, too—handling feeding, litter box maintenance, brushing, and plenty of chin scratches. I'm currently home full-time, which means I have a very flexible schedule. I can accommodate last minute bookings, drop-ins, or overnight house sittings. My Commitment to You: I don't currently have pets of my own, so your "fur babies" will have my undivided attention. I am always willing to adapt to your specific routines and learn exactly how to best care for your animal’s unique personality. Let me help you enjoy your time away with the peace of mind that your pets are in great hands!

“Wheatley was awesome! She walked my 65-pound German Shepherd and was ultra communicative and sent lots of pics. Will definitely use her services again in the future.”

About: I provide loving, reliable care tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether it’s playful puppies, senior pups, or dogs with special routines. Experienced in training, administering meds, and giving extra cuddles when needed, I treat every dog like family. I am currently working from home and have open availability to care for your pup.

About: I've had dogs of my own ever since I was a child that my siblings and I always took care of. As well as so many other dogs that have and are in my life. I love to keep them company while running or cuddling with them, and even giving them a good wash. I currently am available for pet care in the mornings as well as evenings, Monday throughout Friday is best along with occasional weekends same time frames. I would hope for gates throughout the halls where a pet is not allowed in a clients home. Making sure feeding schedules are kept up with, along with midday snacks if allowed. They should have a solid place to sleep and some toys if needed.

About: I’m an animal lover with a big heart and endless cuddles to give! I’ve had dogs of my own, so I understand the love, patience, walks, belly rubs, and care that pets need to feel safe and happy. I adore dogs of all breeds, shapes, and sizes! Since losing my sweet rescue girl (black labrador & pit bull poi dog) from the Humane Society, I’ve missed having dogs in my life and would love the chance to shower your fur baby with cuddles, walks, attention, and lots of TLC. I also regularly dogsit my boyfriend’s dog whenever the family is away on vacation because they trust me completely with his care. He (boyfriend’s dog, haha!) absolutely adores me and even though he growls at most people, he’s always gentle and loving with me 🐾 I stick with a set routine for walking and feeding. I’m in tuned with their needs and talk to them like a human being when they seem to not be feeling well (missing their owner and not eating) and try my best to cheer them up and remind them that mommy/daddy will be back soon, don’t worry! I work a regular full-time office job with the State of Hawaii in town and can step out of the office to offer potty breaks or quick check ins. I’m available anytime after 4:30pm when I get off work and I have my own car so transportation is not an issue. I’m easily reached by phone so you can always get in touch. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority. I understand how important trust is when welcoming someone into your home and caring for a beloved family member, so I will always treat both your pet and your space with the utmost respect, care, and professionalism. I closely follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medications, and any special instructions to help pets feel secure and comfortable while you’re away. I pay close attention to their behavior and emotions, especially if they seem anxious, lonely, or out of routine, and I make sure they receive plenty of affection, patience, reassurance, and loving companionship. Communication and trust are extremely important to me, and I’m always happy to provide updates, photos, and check-ins for peace of mind. Your address and personal information will always remain private and will never be shared with anyone. For your safety and comfort, absolutely no strangers or guests will ever be allowed into your home during your absence.

About: I personally have owned cats my entire life, they are just the absolute best! I have also had multiple dogs in my life and love how each one has their own personality. I also have experience with birds and adore their personalities and attitude. I also don't mind watering your plants while you're away! I am currently a graduate student and work from home one or two days a week, so spending the day with your pet so they can lounge around the house is no issue! Although I listed I will not be home full time feel free to ask and I'll see what I can do! While I cannot take your pet to my own home, I will ensure that your animal is always under the watchful eye of me and my husband while we go on walks and play. We love going to the beach and on hikes, and are thrilled when we get to take a furry friend with us on our adventures.

About: I am a huge animal lover of all kinds! My main priority is to treat your animals how I would want someone to treat mine--with love, extra comfort while you are away, and maybe even a little spoiling. I have extensive experience with dogs, especially with rescue. I have worked directly with the Bella Foundation in OKC. I am the founder and designer of national adoption campaign AdoptUgly, a program that gets overlooked dogs in shelters adopted. I recently returned from a Rescue Trip with Sgt Pepper's Friends, caring for strays in Aruba. I figured this would be a great way to fund another trip. I appreciate your consideration! I currently work out of the house a few days a week but my husband works completely from home. I work from home the rest of the time as a graphic designer, so your pup will always have attention and care. I have a two bedroom apartment with a gated lanai that overlooks Kahala. All the dogs I’ve watched love to spend time on the lanai soaking up the sunshine or watching the neighborhood below. I am in a quiet area with little traffic, with a cool back bedroom if your dog tends to get hot or wants a quiet place to relax.

About: Hi! I'm looking to supplement my income with something that brings me joy; cute, silly, friendly dogs! I work freelance in the film industry, and I’m currently between shows meaning I have plenty of free time! I grew up with Golden Retrievers so taking care of dogs comes natural. For boarding I only ask that your dog is friendly with other dogs and not one to bark excessively when their humans are away. I share outdoor space with two small neighbor dogs and I live in a fairly quiet neighborhood. When I’m between shows my schedule is very flexible. I will be home most of the time and able to provide the walks they need. Dogs will be fed, watered, walked and loved while you’re gone. I will be sure to follow the care instructions you provide along with my own intuition.

About: My pet care experience started back when I was roughly 12 years old. We did not have dogs in my house until I was a bit older, with the exceptions of some family friends. One particular family friend had a great, big, beautiful black lab named Fowler. He really kick-started my zeal for pet loving. They were over almost daily and Fowler began to feel like my dog. He always played with me, laid with me, and even slept on top of my feet every night. It's one of my most memorable experiences in my life - something about the nostalgia and how sweet it was has always brought back bittersweet memories. Fowler was already pretty old when he came into my life, so it wasn't much later that I had to take care of him in his old age. As a hyper kid, I had to learn to adjust to Fowler's age. This really helped me later on in life, where I feel more comfortable caring for and being around dogs of any age. I have been close to many dogs in my life, and even before having some of our own in my family, I felt capable of gauging and responding the appropriate way to many different types of dogs. A while later, after Fowler passed, my family got a few dogs. I have helped and spearheaded the majority of their care throughout the years, being that I was always so eager to do it. I would wake up early for feeding and walking, I have helped train a handful of dogs - small to large, young to old. I have given shots orally for dogs, but feel confident in performing dog CPR, though I do not have a certification for the latter. No matter the dog, I am always so so eager to meet, walk, and take care of them(this is why going to the BeltLine is so hard for me, so many dogs I want to pet). If there is anything missing in my profile, please reach out to me! I am always looking for ways to improve my puppy-loving and care-taking. I am currently seeking part- and full-time work, so my schedule is currently very open. Hopefully I can meet your needs and take the best care of your pups! I unfortunately don’t live in a place that allows pets, so boarding is not an option. I have done a lot of pet/house sitting in the past, and my policy is to leave it better than I found it. I clean while I’m there and hope to make it look like I wasn’t even there in the first place. For the pups, I aim to adjust my schedule as best I can to meet the schedule the pups are already on, since routine is so important!
