“Jessica was wonderful. My dogs were well cared for and my house was well kept. I have one dog that takes a while to warm up to people and just in the matter of one night she already had him cuddling up to her like he does to us. So grateful! We will definitely be booking her in the future!”
“Richard was great with Moosey! Fast communicator. Sent pics and videos. Super respectful and left my place clean. Moosey loved him. Definitely would recommend and would book again for my future trips.”
“Jessica was amazing with my little Hazel. She was very accomodating to a unique sitting situation and made Hazel very comfortable. Would definitely have her doggy sit again.”
“The best!! She treated our pups like her own. Lots of updates and very cute pictures. This was my first time using rover for pet care so I was a bit worried but the dogs felt comfortable with Yasmeen right away! Got a rover and pup photoshoot all in one.”
“We never were really comfortable with leaving our boys at the clinic while we travel. Kaya made it so easy for us. She is extremely friendly, helpful, kind and informative. We would definitely recommend her!”
“Rebecca is very patient and loving with our Bella Girl. She follows our instructions and our Bella is comfortable around her. She also has Tibbies so she knows the special care they need. She is definitely our regular sitter now if we ever need besides New Year’s eve. Love that she also takes pics and videos of her 😊”
About: I grew up on a farm and have had dogs of every shape and size my entire life. I have experience with dogs with diabetes and am comfortable giving them their shots. I am willing to drive to any part of the island but I am located in Ewa Beach so please allow grace for traffic if you are townside. Size does not scare me as I was watching over 12 horses daily in Kapolei, my elderly dog requires 4 medications a day so medications are a breeze as I’ve had to learn every trick in the book. *I have an elderly dog and young cat in my home so all animals must pass a flea inspection and have recent vaccines.* I am currently unemployed due to medical conditions not letting me be able to be in large crowds. I can adapt my schedule to you and your animals needs because of this and can be available anytime outside of my appointments and treatment days. I have a larger fenced yard in Ewa Beach, I provide filtered water for all animals and treat any animal in my home as if it were my own. In my house animals are allowed on furniture and beds. I will always leave a space cleaner than found, if I am house sitting/pet sitting I will lightly clean the area. If your animal becomes muddy, or dirty under my care I will wash them. If you don’t want them on furniture I will make sure they do not go on any.
About: I have grown up with dogs and had them in and out of my life. I am pretty experienced with young puppies and adult dogs. Although I am not experienced with senior care or giving medication. I am currently a part time college student that will be taking classes online. I have an incredibly flexible schedule. I will do my best to work with so that it works out for everyone. I cannot board any animals in my home however I would be happy to spend the night with your furry family members in your home. I take pet safety very serious and I’ll care for your pet like they’re my own pet. I’ll also follow any instructions, rules and dietary needs that you have for your pet. Further more I won’t leave your pet unsupervised unless in a safe or secure place and with your knowledge and permission.
“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 ❤️”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life, they aren’t just pets they’re family! I have about 5 years of experience of taking care of others pets. I always make sure they’re comfortable and having a blast, since i know owners leaving can cause them a lot of anxiety. I have open availability and so whether it’s a quick walk or you’re in need of a weekend getaway I’ll gladly watch your pet! I currently have a 100lb Great Pyrenees, despite his attitude, he’s well trained and listens well (which is amazing considering his breed)You can Trust me, I’ll treat them like they’re my own <3 I currently have open availability! Start times around 12pm-2pm would be better for me though. I’ll gladly watch your pet whether it’s a hour or for a week I treat my pets like family. They get unconditionally love and lots of play time. Trust me my 100lb Great Pyrenees thinks he’s a lap dog and demands lots of cuddles
“We have two grown dogs and a puppy, so Annabelle definitely had her hands full, but she did great. She stayed at our house. The dogs totally fell in love with her. Can’t wait to use her again.”
“Mahalo Simeon for sharing pictures of my Kuma I really appreciated it and eased my mind. Kuma was not stressed while we were gone and so I was not stressed also. I really appreciated Simeon!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. My first furry friend was a rescue puppy that needed to be nursed back to health, which sparked my passion for caring for animals. Over the years, I’ve fostered many dogs and gained hands-on experience with a wide range of personalities, medical needs, and behavioral challenges. I’ve trained both puppies and older dogs alike, understanding that patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement are key at any age. I’m confident, calm, and prepared to handle most situations with care and attentiveness I’m currently a stay-at-home dog mom, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. I occasionally take on side work, but I’m home the majority of the time, so your dog will rarely be left alone. We are a crate-trained household, and I do ask that owners provide their dog’s crate for their stay. If I need to step out briefly, your pup will be safely and comfortably crated in their own familiar space. Otherwise, they’ll enjoy plenty of companionship, supervision, and engagement throughout the day. We also have a spacious yard that offers safe outdoor time and plenty of room to play and burn off energy. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities, whether they are staying in my home or I am caring for them in yours. In my home, we provide a secure and structured environment designed to help dogs feel comfortable and relaxed. Our yard is fully fenced, and I supervise all outdoor time. I go outside multiple times throughout the day with the dogs — whether it’s for potty breaks, play sessions, or simply relaxing outdoors. Depending on the weather and your dog’s energy level, we may spend anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour outside playing games like tug-of-war or fetch. After playtime, dogs can cooloff comfortably inside with air conditioning. My dog is gentle, especially with smaller dogs, and stays close to me outdoors. I carefully monitor all interactions to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. When it comes to feeding, I follow each pet’s established routine. While my dog free-feeds when alone, I understand that many dogs do best on a schedule, and I am happy to follow your specific feeding instructions. Clear communication, supervision, and consistency are the foundation of the care I provide. I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own

About: Hi! I’m Jason, a lifelong animal lover with over 22 years of experience caring for pets. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, birds, fish, and ferrets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply lots of love and attention, I’m happy to help. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I always take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Living on Oʻahu’s North Shore, I have an active lifestyle and love getting outside with dogs that enjoy walks, hikes, or beach adventures (when appropriate). I’m also just as happy spending quiet time with senior pets or cuddly cats who prefer a slower pace. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and my goal is to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and in good hands. I’m available all week and on the weekends. My schedule is very flexible. Whether it’s day or night I should be available for animal sitting or walking. We do have a fenced yard and a safe place for your pets to relax/ play in. We are very trusting wh. It comes to taking care of animals.
About: Because of my vet tech mom, animals have always been a huge part in my life! I grew up cleaning, walking, and playing with my many foster dogs! I'm a commission-based graphic designer, so I love to spend my extra time with furry friends! I'm usually available for visits after 11am on any day. I maintain a clean, safe environment while watching pets, and I use only the spaces designated to me by the client. I am considerate and respectful whenever I'm in someone else's home.
About: Animals have been by career and passion for the last 8 years. I began as a Kennel Technician at a busy dog and cat boarding/daycare/grooming facility and worked my way up to General Manager. I've handled everything from puppy playgroups to behavioral challenges and medical emergencies. I am Canine CPR certified so you can trust that your pups wellness is my top priority. I have experience with all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. At home I care for my 5 year old epileptic Border Collie, as well as my 2 cats. If your pets do no get along with cats, they can be kept in the upstairs area. I currently work part time at home, answering phone calls for the Dog Daycare I worked at back home! Personally I am a homebody and rarely leave the house unless we are camping or visiting family. I love taking my pup on walks once or twice a day, as well as my cats who love joining in their stroller! I understand how hard it is to leave your pet with someone new. Your pups physical safety and emotional wellbeing will always come first. I am highly trained in safe dog handling, group management, behavioral assessment and emergency response. I am Canine CPR certified and experienced in administering medication, monitoring medical concerns, and recognizing early signs of stress or illness. My home environment is calm, clean and organized. Pets are never left unsupervised in unsafe situations, and I follow structured routines to help them feel secure. You can trust that your pet will be cared for with the same level of professionalism and vigilance I maintained in a licensed facility.

Sarge isn’t always the easiest. He can be a grouchy old man and is very particular about who he likes. He loved Madison from day 1, which obviously put us at ease immediately. Madison didn’t only take phenomenal care of Sarge, she took wonderful care of our home. She is welcome back anytime and we will definitely be booking her in the future. Thank you so much Madison!
Absolutely Amazing! Cynthia is kind, understanding, compassionate and incredibly flexible. For as long as we need a pet sitter, she will be out number 1 go to. She watched our dog and our house for a week while we visited with family outside the state. The house was better than we left it when we got back and our boy was very well cared for. I’m incredibly grateful that we found her and couldn’t be happier with her level of service!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,019 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Waianae. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Waianae 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 Waianae 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 Waianae 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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.
