“Kathy was wonderful, and took such great care of our Senior dog. Great communicator and it put us at ease knowing that we were getting those daily updates.”


“Absolutely an 5-Star experience for our dog and for us! Our pup had a happy, fun filled weekend with Dale, his wife and their 7 yr old dog. We needed last minute boarding over the weekend for our 15 yr old Havanese and were so lucky to find Dale had an opening. Our dog was comfortable with these lovely people from the start and had great fun playing with their dog. They paid attention to every detail of his care, walked him, played with him and kept us in the loop with daily photos. As a special treat, they had him all bathed and ready for us when we picked him up at the end of the weekend. We highly recommend these dog lovers for your boarding needs.”

“Shannon and Matthew were such great sitters. Dash had a great time with them and their pups and ha came back happy! Thank you for taking care of Dash!”


“Very pleasant host to deal with. Her farm has plenty of animal diversity and room for our old pup to roam. I would plan a return visit!”

“Chelsea and her boyfriend, Josh, really helped me out when I was in a tight spot. They are communicative, reliable, and were available on short notice. They took very good care of my dog and he came home happy and healthy. I think my dog really enjoyed playing with their two dogs. I would certainly use their services again.”


About: With 15+ years of petcare, I love being able to provide a great environment for pet sitting and boarding. I’ve been a dog mom, my whole life and am extremely active - so it’s easy for me to bring pups on long walks and keep them active. My Weimaraner Moose loves new friends! I work remotely from home, so I’m available to be with doggies days and nights, take them on long walks, adventures, and hang at the house with them. I’m big believer in quality time with animals. I have a big fenced in property and yard that my dogs love. My Australian Shepherd just passed away, and now my weimaraner loves to have friends over to play and walk with.

About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals, my love for pets is a lifelong devotion. I’ve shared my home and heart with dogs and cats throughout my life, and I’ve been a trusted pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. I have experience with animals of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—including senior pets and those needing extra tenderness or special care. In addition to hands-on experience, I bring a calm, grounded presence and a deep sensitivity to the emotional needs of animals. I’m trained in energy healing and often incorporate gentle, calming energy into my care when appropriate—helping pets feel safe, seen, and loved while their humans are away. My approach is intuitive, attentive, and heart-centered. I treat each pet as the unique soul they are, and I feel truly honored to care for them. I work from home a lot and I have the freedom to be available and present full-time. I’m devoted to being with your pet providing all their needs. I prefer to provide care in the clients home but I can also bring your pet to my home. I have a big yard and a deck that is fenced. Pets will are welcome.

“Jeremy was so kind, and trustworthy. The girls loved him. He has excellent communication and took the best care of our girls. I knew we were leaving them in good hands. 10/10 experience!”


About: I don’t have any experience with dogs, during all of my life I was surrounded by cats. But I am happy to help and to be useful. One important thing for you to know- I have a 28 month old daughter and she is obsessed with all pets. My ohana is tiny, so I can’t take any doggy over 20 pounds I’m rather flexible . Working part time and studying, but I can find time to watch your furry baby. Just need to know a few days before to adjust my schedule My yard is not fenced, it can be a problem. But I can spend time with your little one inside my ohana. One detail- our neighbourhood has a lot of abandoned cats

About: I lived on a dairy farm growing up. Currently, I am a chicken mom of 3 silkie hens and 1 rooster. I can service the Hilo and Kona area, just reach out and let me know how I can help. I currently live in the Kurtistown and Kailua-Kona area and open to help with any kind of pet, not just dogs and cats. Currently I am a chicken mom, they are in a safe, enclosed area on the south side and will not be an issue with sitting services. My friend needed me to check on her chickens and other pets while on vacation after seeing a pig break in her coop area, and I was glad to help. I wanted to offer services to all pet lovers, including chickens as I know how to help with common issues such as sour crop, egg bounding, etc. I want to offer both, depending on where and the situation. Please let me know what your needs are. I am here to help :)

About: Aloha! I'm Shanon, a naturopathic physician who loves to take care of pets in people's homes. I began caring for my neighbor's cat when I was 10 years old, graduating to dog care in my teens. Since then I have done pet sits in many states and countries, seeing some pets through their lifetimes. My clients have included dogs, cats, bunnies, tortoises, snails, fish and birds. I have also cared for chickens and horses and am willing to look after small farm animals such as goats and sheep. If requested, I take care of gardens/plants, mail/packages and any other issues that may arise while you are gone. Want local or distance references? There are many. Please ask for them! I look forward to hearing from you. Aloha, Shanon Much of my work is online so that I can spend the maximum amount of time with your furry, feathered and scaled friends - I aim to be at home 75% of the time. I treat all pets as my own so they get the attention, love and care they deserve. My services can also include administering medication (pills, subcutaneous injections for cats, insulin shots etc). I strive for your home to be in the same, if not better condition than when you left, and for your pets to be as well-tended to when you are away as when you are home.

About: I want your pet to feel taken care of when you are out of town. The bond that people have with their pets is special and I know that first hand. I work remotely in the environmental space and have plenty of time through the day to give your pet love and attention. My dogs typically eat 2 times a day and play for ball or go on walks at least once a day. But I am happy to accommodate your pets special needs. I have a fenced in yard and two incredible friendly pups to keep your pet safe and entertained. I will also be taking your pet for daily walks and given them plenty of 1:1 attention and care.

About: I have had both cats and dogs since I was in Kindergarten. Neighbors, friends, and family members have relied on me to watch their animals while away. I currently dog-sit a neighbor's senior terrier when they leave on vacation. I have a friend that trusts me to watch her older dog as well. Both dogs are age 14 and require some special care and attention. They appreciate the company and cuddles. I am very active and enjoy taking dogs on long walks. I always adhere to the pup's acitivity level and age. I have also cared for a neglected pitbull terrier in my old neighborhood. The dog was chained all the time and not cared for. I asked the owners if I could walk him daily. I have removed ticks and groomed him in an effort to provide some much needed attention and TLC. I have sought out medical care for the dog and helped to build a better shelter. I have also worked to educate the family on what it means to be a dog owner and treat the pup like a family member. Dogs just yearn to protect and be close to thier pack (owners). I still walk him to this day even though I know longer live in the neighborhood. The dog can be aggressive with other people and animals but is always affectionate towards me. I had to train the dog how to walk on a leash as it had not been walked in years. At first, the dog was a bit wild and did not know what to do. Now, he can heel and listens to commands. He even sits for some treats! I know how to use caution and practice safety measures when walking the dog so that others and the agressive dog are kept safe and unharmed! I have a bleeding heart for animals. I am great with animals of all ages, personalities, and fitness levels! I am a social worker and love to give pets as much attention as possible! I am sensitive to their needs and always make sure your pet is comfortable. I treat them as one of my own! am available to dog-sit/ house-sit or board smaller sized dogs.

Leana S.
“Leana is a dog whisperer for sure! She helps us take care of and walk our rescued shepherd with special needs. It's clear our dog feels safe and secure with Leana, who knows how to take the lead while being considerate, patient and supportive of our pup. Our dog Kiki loves her so much and since our dog is scared of almost everything, that says a lot! We can't thank Leana enough for what she does for our furry family! We recommend her services to EVERYONE!”
