“Carey was great! She was very approachable and easy to talk to during the initial meet and great. I appreciate the fact that she has a lot of experience with dogs over the years. She was prompt in arriving at the agreed time. My dog warmed up to her quickly. She sent pictures daily. I really loved that she was able to spend a large amount of time at my house with my dog. We will definitely use Carey in the future. Thank you Carey!”
“Hannah was great! Very communicative, sent many photos daily, and spent a lot of time with our animals on walks and playing fetch. The house was spotless when we returned.”
“Natalie is a amazing! I have an extremely high maintenance, elderly, not always friendly, sassy bulldog who is about as stubborn as they come. Natalie adhered to all of my many requests and suggestions about how to best handle Lana as well she went above and beyond by watering all of my plants (both indoor and outdoor) AND I returned to a house cleaner than I had left it!! Not to mention she texted with photos, videos, and updates daily to put my mind at ease. It was such an Incredible experience that I immediately booked her again. Such a relief to have a competent sitter close to home!”
“Mandi was so incredible! She took such great care of my Jackson, even taking him to the park multiple times a day to play fetch and sent pictures to keep me updated. She also dealt with his reactivity well which is always a concern of mine when I leave him with others. Responses were quick and as a house guest she left everything clean, even cleaned the bedding in her room which was so kind and nice to come back to one less chore after a busy vacation.”
“Chose Christie based on her reviews and she didn’t disappoint. Very thorough, outgoing and kind. I found Christie to be competent and professional as well as friendly! Great communication, lots of pictures and left my home spotless. My golden was well taken care of and I didn’t worry at all and was able to enjoy my trip. Thanks Christie!!!”
“Rachael was easy to set a video call time with prior to her visit. We chatted and she was very thorough in her questions. She was on time for the visit, communicative with photos and updates, and Zena had a great time on their outing. Thank you, Rachael. We will book with you again and would recommend you to everyone! Mahalo!”
“Makana was amazing! From the very first phone call to the meet and greet and then her process of making sure she was totally prepared to care for our dog while we were away- she was PHENOMENAL! We would give her 10 stars if we could! Makana shared lots of photos while we were away and she left the house clean, which we also appreciated after getting home from a long flight! Makana is very professional and her love and care for animals and people shines through her kind personality! Confidently recommend her to anyone needing pet care and already decided we will be using her moving forward! Thanks so much Makana! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“Sarah communicates very well. Responsible, shows up on time. Dogs loved her and were very relaxed and happy when we got home She also took care of our home well and kept us updated with any issues She's a great dog sitter.”
About: I have a husky mix Kea and we are super active! Daily walks and animal care is in my daily routine. I have been doing rover for a long time now. Apart from dogs, I worked/lived at a cat sanctuary in Haiku that had over 200+ cats as well as chickens and cows. My job consisted of feeding, giving medicine/attention, and cleaning after them everyday. I take care of my husky mix Kea everyday! I work from home m-f and have lots of free time. I love to take care of all kinds of animals. I am looking for some extra jobs on the island! I would make sure I am aware of the clients needs and expectations when being in their home. I will be aware of any precautions and contact the owner with any issues. I will take care of the animals with anything that is needed (walking/feeding/put into crate/attention), I am a quick learner and am open to any specific jobs.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my whole life, so I’m very familiar with caring for animals and understanding their different personalities and needs. I also have a cat named Kiko, who I’ve had since she was a kitten, and I’ve been responsible for her daily care, feeding, grooming, and overall well-being. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My schedule is flexible during weekdays after my morning classes (1pm), and I’m also available during weekends particularly mornings. I’m committed to making time for attentive, reliable pet care and keeping communication consistent with pet owners. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for whether they’re in my home or their own familiar environment. I follow feeding schedules closely, provide fresh water, clean litter boxes or pick up after pets as needed, and spend quality time playing with them and giving them attention. I understand that every pet has different personalities and comfort levels, so I try to be patient, gentle, and attentive to their needs while keeping owners updated.
“Kiaya is amazing! She was so sweet with our anxious pup, and went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and happy. She was communicative and sent pictures, and made us feel much more comfortable leaving.”
“Casey took care of our pup while we were off island for a weekend; he even brought him his new favorite toy. Casey is very pleasant and we felt very comfortable with him after our meet and greet. He sent updates with pictures and left our place just as we left it. Our dog had a great time with him and we would definitely work with him again!”
About: My wife and I host a relaxing environment with no competition or bullying by other dogs. We only host one client at a time, so you will get 100% of our attention! (Multiple dogs from the same household are okay) Come and stay with us at our quiet house. There is a nice yard with lots of grass. We like to walk every day on the beautiful grass and watch the people and birds. Our previous clients have had such a great time that many of them did not want to go home! Our guests must be house-trained, be up-to-date on vaccines, have a very friendly temperament and be neutered/spayed. Rates are for a 24 hour period. Additional charges will apply if pick up time is past the 24 hour period. We work from home, so one of us is always around except when we run short errands to pick up more dog treats. We try to keep these trips as short as possible. We only host one dog at a time. Guests are generally allowed on the furniture and to roam around the house if they are well-behaved!
“Emma was fantastic with Rico! She was great at communicating, always quick to answer questions and respond to messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I had absolutely no worries knowing Rico was in her care. When I got home, the house looked great, and Rico was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. I would definitely book with Emma again. Thank you for giving me a worry-free vacation and for taking such wonderful care of my little guy! 🐾💙”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced pet sitter who has been dog sitting and boarding for returning clients over the past three years. Caring for dogs has become one of my favorite ways to spend my time, and I love getting to know each pup’s unique personality. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or loves attention, I’m comfortable adapting to their individual needs and routine. I have experience caring for dogs with a variety of temperaments and always prioritize making them feel safe, loved, and at home. I’m very active and love being outdoors, so your dog can expect plenty of walks, playtime, exercise, and affection. I live in a pet-friendly apartment and offer both boarding and house sitting. I also have experience with basic training and reinforcing good habits, so I’ll happily stick to your dog’s routine and any instructions you provide. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind while you’re away and make sure your dog has a fun, safe, and loving experience from start to finish. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I am available to care for your pet everyday of the week. I work as a surf instructor 3 days a week (8am–1pm), which leaves me very flexible and home the majority of the time. On work days, I provide early morning walks and care before I leave, plus afternoon/evening walks and attention when I’m back. On my off days, I’m fully available for plenty of walks, playtime, and company. Your dog will always get a consistent routine, lots of exercise, and plenty of love based on their individual needs. Whether in my home or yours, your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. My apartment is dog-friendly, clean, cozy, and smoke-free, with easy access to safe outdoor areas for walks, potty breaks, and exercise. I keep my space tidy and calm so pets feel relaxed and at home right away. For house sitting, I treat your home with the same respect and care as my own.
“Courtney was amazing while I was away. She took great care of my pets and my home and sent me updates each day, which I really appreciated. Coming home was so nice, the house was all set and she even left me flowers. I felt at ease knowing everything was in good hands and will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“Jennifer was AMAZING to have as Bella's dog sitter. She left the house completely clean and vacuumed, updated me every day with pictures and stories about Bella and was very easy to coordinate with. After being in her care, all of a sudden Bella understands playing with a ball! Bella was extremely well cared for. Thanks Jennifer!”

I can’t possibly say enough good things about Mandi. I am SO GRATEFUL that I chose HER to stay with Paka for 8 days. She was absolutely PERFECT, with great communication. She is also AFFORDABLE, which was GREATLY APPRECIATED. I love her vibe and I trust her 100%. I can’t recommend her enough!!
Jonathan stayed at our home with our older dog for two weeks. At our first meeting with him we knew he would be great with our pup. He was in regular communication with us and sent lots of pictures. He administered medications and cooked for our guy. I highly recommend having Johnathan watch your pets. We plan on booking with him again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Wailuku
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wailuku on Rover is $58.85 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 172 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wailuku. 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 Wailuku 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 Wailuku 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 Wailuku 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.

- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
