About: I am an adventurous, kind, intelligent, and reliable person who has a deep love for all animals! I have an undergraduate degree in Biology, wildlife experience with sea turtles, experience working as a veterinary technician, and am aspiring to get my masters degree in Zoology! I have had dogs and cats my whole life and have helped take care of them. I assisted my parents in raising their year-and-a-half-old Wirehaired Pointing Griffon with potty training, general obedience, walking, and hiking. I have experience as a veterinary assistant/technician at two different small animal hospitals, assisting with routine and emergency exams, diagnostics, treatments, and surgical anesthetic monitoring. This gave me a variety of experience caring for pets of varying ages, personalities, and breeds. I am comfortable with handling the medical needs of your pet and making sure they are well taken care of. I take care to pay attention to each animal's specific needs and personality to ensure they feel comfortable and cared for. I love to cuddle, go for long walks or hikes, and enrich their minds with plenty of playtime. I currently work on-call at Turtle Bay 5 days per week and my shifts are no longer than 5 hours so taking care of pets easily fits in my schedule. Other than work, I am out of the house doing the things I love like hiking, swimming, doing yoga, and spending time with friends which are all flexible in my schedule. I treat each animal with respect, gentleness, and love. I take care to pay attention to the little details of animal behavior and my physical surroundings to ensure both the safety of myself and each animal. I treat your home and your pets' belongings with respect and value the trust you put in me to come into your space and help take care of your loved one!
“Klee has watched our dogs multiple times now, and she has been wonderful every time. Our dogs are always comfortable with her, and we feel completely at ease knowing they are in good hands. She is reliable, caring, and great about keeping us updated. Anytime Klee is available when we need a dog sitter, we would not hesitate to continue using her. Highly recommend!”

“Anastasia is the best 🥹 My doggy fell in love with her the second she laid eyes on her. She left our place looking the same as it looked when we left and she sent us tons of pics with updates. I will definitely be using her again ❤️”
“I was beyond pleased with Isabell. The meet and greet was amazing and my dogs were happy around her right away. I could tell it was going to be okay as I was so nervous leaving them for the first time with anyone other than family. She is knowledgeable dealing with different types of dogs and their different behaviors and personalities. I enjoyed the updates and pictures. She always feed them on time and kept to their schedule so they felt comfortable. We did 3 overnights and Isabell left our home exactly the same as we left it and truly respected our space.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Waialua walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Waialua maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
