“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.”


“This was my first experience using Rover and a pet sitter. Diane was incredible and took care of our Loki with such short notice. She and her husband, Jeff, we’re so kind, accommodating, and genuinely love animals. Diane kept me informed of Loki‘s daily activities and also sent pictures that assured us he was having a wonderful time. I would highly recommend her and her services to anyone in need of a sitter.”


“Dale and Miyi were absolutely wonderful with my dog, Rio! From the moment we met, I felt confident leaving Rio in their care. They kept me updated with messages and photos, and I could tell Rio was having a great time going on hikes, playing at the beach and hanging with their sweet dog Malo. When I returned, Rio was happy, healthy, and clearly very well looked after. It’s such a relief to have someone I trust—I'll definitely be using their services again!”


About: Aloha, my name is Shannon! My family moved to Waikoloa in 2022. I have 10 years of experience working with dogs as a professional dog groomer. I am comfortable handling all breeds and personalities and strive to make them feel at home with me. My husband and I own an award winning dog grooming salon on the mainland and we are very passionate about pet care. We have 5 years of experience pet sitting for our grooming clients and are excited to be offering our services to the island. We strive to make every pet feel like part of our family! My husband and I work from home so we have plenty of time to spend with your pets! We will try to keep their day as close to their normal routine as possible to help them feel at home! We have two dogs to keep your dogs company! If they prefer humans to dogs then we can keep them in a separate part of our home. We provide supervised play and walks if needed. Dogs are crated at night or if we leave the home for their safety as well as our own dogs safety.

“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.”


“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 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 always had animals, we currently have 7, pigs, bunny, cat and dogs. We have adopted several severe case rescues and gained experience with advanced training throughout these pets lives. We are patient and loving and want to give your pets a safe happy place to stay while you can relax being away from them for a few days. Morning walks - breakfast , Afternoon stretch/ short walk, Evening lap - dinner Work days vary - schedule for sitting will reflect my availability Mahalo We have three friendly senior pups, fenced in 6 acres and a smaller fenced in yard for pups, depends on individual dogs needs for care they receive here.

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 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.

Not only is she gentle, loving and kind with the dogs, she has several years of experience working with dogs. Her sweet genuine character goes beyond the dogs to the owner of the dogs. Her professionalism, and patience leaves everyone, both dogs and owners, wanting to come back for more. No matter the service being provided for your dog there will never be any question as to the safety and loving care of your furry best friend.

10. Leana S.
“I have a 14 year old Jack Russel/Whippet mix named Fenway and he loves being with Leana. She's been like a second mom to him for the last 6 years. There's no one I would trust more to pet sit for me. I'm so glad I don't have to board him when I travel. He adores Leana and the long walks she takes him on! She loves dogs and I highly recommend her for house-sitting as well.”
