Dog Walking Waikane

About: My dogs have always been my best friends. I have had experience with small, medium, and large dogs. I am careful to listen to and respect the routine and rules that you have for your fur baby, no matter how big or small. I’m a big fan of taking them for walks on the beach and shady hikes! I also love a good excuse to drive around looking for a good place for my pup to stretch her legs, or be a good cuddle buddy. I am currently a small business owner in private practice as a healthcare provider. Dog sitting was something I loved doing for many years, but paused to do to care for my senior dog for the last 3 years. After recently losing her, and not being ready for a new love of my own, I’d be honored for the opportunity to care for your pet. I live in Kaaawa but am able to travel anywhere on island to care for your pet(s). Thank you for reading my profile, & I hope to hear from you soon! I work from home doing telehealth, largely from 11-4 M/W/F so I have lots of time and breaks to spend with your pet. I spend most days at home, able to provide exercise and maintain routine feeding throughout the day. I am used to administering meds on a schedule and provide frequent updates to owners (if they’d like!). I am careful to follow the house rules and your pet’s routine. I know it takes a lot of trust for someone to care for your fur baby, and I am a trusted member of the community. I am transparent about my stay in your home and understand it is a privilege to be there and be trusted to care for your animal. I provide lots of play time and cuddles! I always leave homes cleaner than they are left. My reviews are older because of the break I took from Rover to care for my senior pup, but I still value the same service.

“Kelly is great with my 10yo beagle and 4yo pom mix! They aren’t always the most enthusiastic walkers but she’s been patient and understanding. :) We will keep scheduling walks with Kelly!”

About: From the first day I was born, I was surrounded by cocker spaniel puppies of my mother's. I was raised to care of different types of animals from dogs, cats, fish, turtle, bunnies, and mice! I have a great fondness and love for animals, especially dogs. We lost our 9 year old Maltese last August and would like to take care and provide some love for other dogs. I've house-sit/dog-sit my neighbor's black lab since 2008, and occasionally dog sit my friend's Australian Shepherd-Corgi mix puppy. I've also house-sit/dog-sit my coworkers black German Shepard several nights last year. I'm sometimes described as a dog whisperer, as dogs have had a natural fondness and friendliness with me. I have a night job as assistant manager/server in DT Bellevue, but morning and afternoon are wide open to take care of your furry companion.

“Jacklyn is amazing! She’s walked my dogs three times now and always sends great updates throughout the stay. She is trustworthy and communicative, and I can tell from all the pictures that my pups absolutely love her. Highly recommend”

“Sova had a great time with Camilla and Ash. She was awesome, right on time, communicative, and instantly great with Sova. She even took her swimming, which Sova loved. I really appreciated how she listened carefully about Sova’s resource guarding and handled it with knowledge and confidence. It’s clear she truly understands dogs and cares about what she’s doing. Would absolutely book with her again.”

About: Aloha! My name’s Mackenzie and I genuinely love animals. I worked at a humane society in California where I grew up, and I’ve cared for many dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I’ve lived on Oʻahu for the past three years, and I have two cats of my own. I also grew up around dogs, cats, and other animals, so being around pets has always been a huge part of my life. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medications, supplements, walks, playtime, and more complicated care schedules. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I treat every animal with patience, love, and attention like they’re my own 🐾 I work in Waikīkī, so I’m available for drop-in visits before and after work and on my days off. For boarding, I’m typically away for about 6 hours during my shift. Your pet will get plenty of attention, exercise, and care before I leave and as soon as I get home. I’m happy to be flexible with drop-off and pick-up times whenever possible. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about my schedule! I follow feeding schedules, walks, medications, litter box cleaning, and any instructions carefully. I’m also very communicative and like to ask questions and be thorough so I fully understand your pet’s routine, personality, and needs. I know how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets and in your home, so I always try to be reliable, respectful, and communicative. I currently only offer boarding for cats. Visiting cats stay in their own private room, completely separate from my two resident cats, to help everyone feel safe and comfortable. For longer stays, if both cats seem interested and ONLY if the owner is comfortable with it, I may allow short, supervised play sessions to help with enrichment and socialization.

About: I’ve been at home with our new puppy for 8 weeks and love every part of it. I enjoy taking dogs for long walks while training them some cute commands and seeing my pup play with other dogs I only work 2 days in the week, so I have a lot of down time to hang out with my and other dogs 🐕 I live in a pet friendly apartment complex, with a dog park and hiking trails right by it. Our dog is very friendly and very playful

About: Having the opportunity of sitting pets in their own place makes a difference in their adaptation while someone new takes care of them. sometimes is easier for puppies or older pets to adjust when they are somewhere they already know. I enjoy sleeping, playing, cuddling or just share space with them. Also i find interesting the way you can stimulate them with games or new activities I am a student at Chaminade university and take my classes in the mornings. Staying with them is better for me so my free time i can dedicate it to them. I been a dogsitter and nanny for about 5 years now and I love what I do!! I’m a very responsible person, with experience in house sitting, so take care of your pet in your home is not only about their care but the responsibility and the opportunity of a new place. I can send daily updates and always have emergency contacts to communicate if there was any irregularities. I will go over your specific needs and theirs as well

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and intention I bring to each visit. I don’t rush through walks or treat them as routine tasks—I make sure your dog gets real engagement, structure, and positive interaction every time. Whether it’s a high-energy walk or a calm check-in, I adapt to what your pet needs that day so they come back happy, balanced, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to plan walks, drop-ins, and visits around the pet’s needs rather than forcing them into a rigid time slot. Since I’m already home throughout the day, I’m able to provide consistent availability, quick response times, and reliable scheduling for morning, midday, and evening care. I can also easily adjust my routine if a pet needs extra attention, a longer walk, or last-minute care. Overall, my flexibility lets me prioritize each pet’s routine and well-being while making sure owners can count on dependable, stress-free support. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain a calm, clean, and consistent environment while making sure pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they’re used to. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions provided so nothing is disrupted. During visits, I focus on creating a safe and positive experience—whether that means structured walks, playtime, potty breaks, or just calm companionship for pets who prefer a quieter presence. I also make sure to communicate updates so owners feel confident and informed while they’re away.

About: As a dedicated dog owner and animal lover, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment where pets receive the care, affection, and attention they deserve. I am responsible, dependable, patient, and attentive to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, companionship, or simply relaxing, I strive to make every experience comfortable and enjoyable. I understand the importance of following feeding schedules, maintaining routines, providing regular updates, and treating every pet like a member of my own family. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. I currently work independently with a flexible schedule, which allows me to make pet care a priority throughout my day. I have the freedom to adjust my availability to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship. Since I manage my own work hours, I can offer weekday and weekend availability, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care that fits your pet’s routine and gives you peace of mind while you’re away. As a dog owner myself, I understand that pets are family and deserve to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet with the same patience, affection, and attention I give my own dog, Leonidas. Whether caring for pets in my home or visiting yours, I prioritize a clean, safe, and comfortable environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and daily routines. I also believe communication is essential, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel connected and reassured. My priority is building trust, respecting each pet’s individual needs, and ensuring they receive quality care and companionship while their family is away.

About: I’ve had many pets myself growing up that I took great care of, and I have experience working at a pet daycare taking care of both cats and dogs including bathing, cleaning kennels, feeding, walking, and playing with them! Ive always usually been the one asked to take care and watch over neighbors and friend’s animals while they’re gone for the day or on vacation! I am free most days and most times during the day!

About: Hi Everyone! My name is Drew, I just moved back to Hawaii. I love walking and taking care of dogs. I’m comfortable with all different breeds and sizes of dogs! Growing up, my family would always rescue dogs so I love dogs as well as cats! I’d love to help out with your dog(s) in anyway I can, whether that’s dog sitting, walking, or stopping by to let him/her out! I work mornings so I can feed/let out dog before I leave and when I get back. My schedule is very flexible and I can be more available.

About: I have taken care of dogs or pets ever since I was 10. I have offered to walk and watch my neighbors, friends, and family’s dogs. I have experience in overnight care, dog walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I have one fur baby, Emmi. Emmi is a Jack Russell Chihuahua Mix. I once fostered a dog from the Hawaiian Humane Society while having Emmi around. Molly was a senior German Shepherd. In the past, I have cared for dogs, a guinea pig, a bunny, and a turtle. In the future, I would love to grow my fur family and share my unconditional love with them. I have a huge heart for animals especially dogs! I am currently a preschool teacher and I usually have the weekends off. After work, I enjoy spending time with my dog by walking, playing, going on car rides, and cuddling on the couch. I always make time for my fur baby and I am willing to do the same for yours! I have a fenced yard and Emmi is super friendly. She gets along with other dogs really well and she is crate trained. She can be anxious or shy sometimes. She has been around many other dogs before and she is very playful towards them.

“Always punctual, responsive, amazing with the dogs, and extremely informative during every single walk. Highly recommend. My dogs are always delighted when she shows up. She and her father have been absolute life savers for me with my tight work schedule.”
