Cat Sitting in Waikane

About: Experienced pet caregiver with 4+ years working with breeds like German Shepherds, Labs, Golden Retrievers, Shih Tzus, and more. I offer in-home pet sitting and dog walking with a calm, patient, and caring approach. I treat every pet like family and take pride in earning their trust. Reliable, respectful, and committed to building a genuine bond with every pet I meet. Pet care is an important part of my daily and weekly schedule. I dedicate focused time each day to walking, feeding, playing, and monitoring the pets in my care. I prioritize consistency to maintain their routines and well-being. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible to ensure comfort and consistency. This includes feeding schedules, walk times, play, and any special care instructions. I keep the space tidy, provide regular updates, and treat your home with the utmost respect and care.

About: I have owned a cat and dog my whole life and now that my dog is very old I know how to handle senior dogs very well. I have also had my share of experience with feisty cats. I love all animals especially cats and dogs and can’t wait to meet yours! I’m working full time so I usually do weekends but I can also probably do after work as well. I’m very flexible with my schedule. For a drop in, I would let them out to go to the bathroom and play with them to get a bunch of their energy out. I would also refill their bowls if needed as well as any other requests given to me.

“Loved MaryAnn’s knowledge and expertise regarding dog behavior. She provided excellent care, training and mental stimulation for our dog while we were on vacation.”

About: I’m a reliable and experienced pet sitter with over 10 years of hands-on care for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, fish, and multi-pet households. I’ve completed stays ranging from a few days to over two weeks, and I’m comfortable managing multiple pets at once while keeping each one safe, happy, and on routine. What sets me apart is my experience across all life stages—from energetic puppies who need structure and patience to senior pets who require gentle care, attentiveness, and consistency. Having cared for my own senior dog as well as others, I understand the extra level of compassion and awareness older pets need. I prioritize clear communication, reliability, and treating every pet like they’re my own. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM, but I’m available for pet care in the evenings and fully open on weekends. I build pet visits into my daily routine after work and dedicate my weekends to providing attentive, flexible care. I provide attentive, reliable care in your pet’s familiar environment, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and routine at all times. I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly how you left it while maintaining clear communication and updates you can trust. My goal is to create a calm, stress-free experience where both you and your pets feel completely at ease.

About: I got my first dog when I was 4 and started dog sitting for neighbors when I was 8. I worked with a group when I lived in Kansas City that did short term in-home dog fostering for 1 day to two weeks. My puppy experience comes from a few of my friends having puppies, but adult dogs are my favorite. I work full time from home, and can schedule walks in between meetings during the day. If the dog(s) are up for it I would love to take them hiking, SUPing, kayaking, to the beach, and to hang out with my friend's dogs. I prefer to keep the dog on a similar schedule to what they are used to and not overwhelm them with new experiences while their owners are gone. Please provide me with the needed information of your dog's routine.

About: Hi! My name is Samm. I am a current dog owner of two; Charlotte, a 3.5 yr old, spayed, Am. Staff. Terrier who acts like a princess & Kai, a 2 yr old, neutered, GSP who is a busy bee. Talk about polar opposites! I love a healthy balance and what I have learned in my 18+ years of animal care is, just like people, pets have their own personalities and needs. Knowing your audience is key and I treat every animal with that approach. The more you tell me, the more I know how to implement a healthy setting and approach for your pet. I have had family pets (dogs, cats, rodents, fish, & equine) in the home since I was 6, personally starting to care for them around age 10- taking on full responsibility of a horse at the age of 15 and was also partially financially responsible for the same horse to understand the whole realm of that responsibility, becoming fully financially responsible for my first dog, a 135lb Mastiff, at the age of 17. I have fostered 43 puppies, 3 adult dogs, and 1 kitten since 2020 as I was working as an Adoption Manager for a Non-profit shelter based out of Chicago from 2020 - 2021, I now am still in the business of animals and am an Assistant Hospital Manager of a reputable Veterinary clinic here in Oahu with a flexible schedule. I have experience with handling mobility restriction, medication administration, behavior intervention, healthy play and social styles, and all things puppy training and management. I am in a place where animals bring joy. Also, since moving to a remote island, I have seen how difficult it is to find a boarder when needed without jumping through a trillion hoops (some warranted, but others, a bit excessive). I am also a military spouse and truly understand that things come up, so not only do I have access to military bases, but reply swiftly to last minute requests - I GET IT! I am truly hoping to help you out while bringing in an additional source of income for my knowledge and desire to help others. I do want to preface this blurb with yes, I do work full-time (work day is 8 hours) however, I have flexibility within my work schedule. I live (depending on traffic) a 10-14 minute drive from home and choose my schedule. When caring for your pet, depending on service, I treat your pets, like mine. We have a schedule: morning, midday, afternoon, evening. If I am boarding your pet in my home, after discussing your routine for your pet, I will either implement your pet into the routine of my two dogs during my work day, coming home during my hour lunch to spend quality time or get in an additional walk or run on our dog treadmill. OR I have the ability to bring your pet with me to the hospital to our boarding space where your pet will be personally visited by me every 2 hours for quality time, reassurance, and potty breaks until my work day is done. We can talk more specifics depending on your pet and the following; separation anxiety, their energy level, medication requirements, mobility requirements, animal aggressions et cetera. All of this information is vital in order to determine the level of service I can provide for each day and how that would look in order for you to feel comfortable. As a pet owner, knowing the person caring for my pet has their best interest in mind and action, is vital for me to feel at ease. For that consideration I am even willing to pay a premium price because it matters to me. I want you to feel at ease knowing that I want to discuss with you the characteristics of your pet and your training & care style so I may implement the same all the while providing other areas of mental and physical stimulation to help your pet through a season of change with me as their "new-intermittent" care giver alongside the potential of your pet being in a new environment if boarding at my home. If choosing to board your pup in my home/ coming for daycare for play and stimulation (either all at the house OR a combination of at the house and at the boarding facility within my hospital), your pet will be with two other neutral dog friends with an outdoor, secure fenced in space in a neighborhood, with an outdoor (actual) dog house with ceiling fan + beds, access to clean water, an outdoor doggy pool, and all of the lizards to chase! If it's too hot, all dogs will simply be in our home hanging out in the A/C until the day is done with appropriate potty breaks depending on the dogs age and need. For walks, I am to the T when it considers your dogs time and attention for our agreed upon walk routine.

About: I've had pets my whole life growing up. I’ve cared for dogs and cats in home settings, following detailed routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I’m comfortable with pets of different personalities—from energetic, playful dogs to shy or anxious pets who need patience and reassurance. I’m very safety-conscious and always double-check leashes, doors, and gates. I pay close attention to behavior and health, and I communicate clearly with owners if anything seems out of the ordinary. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away—like you never left. I currently have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to accommodate early mornings, mid-day visits, evenings, and weekends. This allows me to work around your pet’s routine rather than fitting them into a rigid schedule. Whether your pet needs consistent check-ins, longer walks, or extra attention during the day, I’m happy to tailor care to what works best for you and your pet. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are my top priorities during every walk and drop-in visit. I’m careful to double-check leashes, doors, and gates, and I stay aware of surroundings to keep your pet safe at all times. I treat your home with respect, follow your instructions closely, and provide reliable, consistent care. During visits, I focus on creating a positive, comfortable environment—whether that’s a good walk, feeding time, potty breaks, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. I’m happy to follow any specific routines, preferences, or safety instructions you have for your pet.

About: I have had Bamba since childhood. We have grown up together and learned to read one another. He had epilepsy since the age of 2, including 12+ hour cluster seizures. I know how to help seizing, senior dogs and can help with pets that take medication and require maintain proper exercise. Bamba is prone to masses and has arthritis, I know how to take care of old pups with unique conditions. Everyday for 14 years, I would walk my dog every morning, afternoon, and night. He developed epilepsy in which he needed multiple pills in the morning and evening. I am no longer a student and have the flexibility to take care of pets for long periods of time. I make sure my dog stays active since he is an older pup. When he’s up for it, I take him on many long walks around the community and and go to the park. My dog always enjoyed veggies, so with his pills he always enjoyed a nice breakfast salad as he ate with the rest of us in the morning!

About: I'm responsible, dependable and I love doggies I have never watched or taken care of other people's doggies before. But I'm willing to learn and have fun doing it. When my parents are away I watch my parents doggies. I'm looking for a second income because I live on my own. It's hard to live in Hawaii and not have extra income coming in. I just started a new job at Gyotaku in Aikahi Shopping Center.
