About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, and I’ve cared for pets ranging from energetic puppies to seniors who need a slower pace. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy bonding with every animal I meet. Pet parents trust me to treat their fur babies like family. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays. I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and routine throughout the day. I live in an apartment, but there’s a great dog park within walking distance where your pup can get plenty of playtime and fresh air. Inside, I provide a calm, safe space and can crate your dog if preferred. I always supervise carefully and keep your pet’s comfort a top priority.
About: I’ve always been a responsible pet owner since I was little and have had numerous unique pets growing up. I love pet sitting, walking, and taking care of them all as if they were my own 🩷 I am currently a substitute teacher and have some extra time and days I don’t have work so I have free time for walks and cuddles. I have always prioritized safety in my different occupations doing security and corrections most of my life. I take pride in people’s trust in me in different ways.
About: I’ve taken care of an 11 year old fur baby till her last breath and I am very patient with all the animals! I really don’t have special skills other than playing the ukulele for them and spending quality time :) Aloha! My name is Kapono. I am a huge dog lover who enjoys spending time with fur babies of all ages and personalities. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just extra attention, I’m here to make sure they have a fun, safe, and a happy time! I recently graduated from Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA and I have returned back home. I am a dog owner myself. I have a 9-year-old Fox Terrier Mix and my previous dog that I owned I took care of until she passed away at 15. I am patient, committed to keeping pet owners updated with photos and communication, and really enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality :)! I have a fenced yard with a grass area where dogs can explore around and/or use the potty. My house is ac so if needed, keep them cool :)!
About: Hello, my name's Rachel and I'm a 3rd year student at Drexel University. I have had pets since I was 10 years old. I just finished working at Penn Vet Working Dog Center in assisting to train working dogs that are trained for different disciplines such as; search and rescue, explosives, narcotics and medical detection. I'm experienced with very high energy and strong dogs. I believe I can handle and provide the best care for your dog. I believe both my profession and personal experience with dogs and cats has helped me gain the skills necessary to work with almost any dog. I have some experience caring for a blind and diabetic dog and feel it would not be an issue to aid those dogs with special needs.
About: I have raised more than 4 dogs and 5 cats from newborn to full grown adults so i'm comfortable with all stages. My passion is to make lazy cats and dogs show their active side. I'm currently active duty and work from 6am-2pm during the weekdays. Before and after that i'm fully engaged in their needs. Work is fairly close to home but i have an in home camera to check up on my own pets 24/7. I currently have 2 of my own cats to keep any other cats company and also have a crate and the basics of any last minute dog drop offs for emergency's or spontaneous plans. I have a fenced area where i teach them to go potty before and after work and then we go for a long walk as a reward.
About: I’ve been around dogs and caring for them for most of my life, and I have a dog of my own. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and keeping pets on their usual routine. I’m responsible, attentive, and good at following specific instructions. I know every pet is different, so I’m happy to adjust to what works best for yours. I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home, so I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I can usually accommodate different schedules and am happy to work around your pet’s normal routine. I’m careful about following each owner’s instructions and keeping pets as close to their normal routine as possible. I pay attention to things like feeding schedules, walks, medications, and behavior, and I’ll always communicate with you if anything seems unusual.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind for over 6 years! They bring me ultimate joy, so why not make it a full-time job? I currently do not work, rover is the only job I do full-time, so I am almost always available to dog sit. I love dogs, and would love to make yours apart of my weekly routine. I have a community dog park in my neighborhood that your dogs will love. I would take the pups out on walks (if it’s not too hot), or just snuggle them all day if that’s what they wanted. I would show them ultimate love and attention while they are in my care!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Waialua is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Waialua choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Waialua with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
