“Yuet and Irene took good care of my little one. I would definitely use them again.I was happy with the accommodations and the cleanliness of the area where the dogs are kept.”

“First time using Rover and so glad we found Joel! He took great care of our dog Naia, even while she had an unexpected injury. It meant a lot to know that she was in good hands while we were gone, and seems like she had a great time. Mahalo Joel!”


“Kaylee was awesome to work with watching our high energy black lab puppy. Also my flight home was cancelled and had to extend my booking with her which she was super cool about. She kept her an additional day no problem. She also sent daily photos and updates”


“We appreciate Kenn for taking care of our fur babies. Kenn sent us pictures and updates everyday, and that we could tell they were having a great time! Thank you keen and his family for having them!”


“Highly recommend! Brianda took great care of our Rex! She definitely knows how to make dogs comfortable & content. I’m sure Rex will think our house is boring now:)”


“Diana was great with our pups during our vacation. She sent daily updates with pictures. Treated our pups like they were her own while we were away. Could not have asked for a better sitter. Thank you!”


“Kalea & Rocky were amazing! Groovy was very well cared for & Kalea sent adorable photos & videos to me, which greatly helped my separation anxiety 😉. Rocky sweetly shared all this toys with Groovy. I highly recommend!”


“Sweet family took care of my baby girl while we were able to attend a weekend Training Retreat. Maci was so happy and spoiled. I was not sure she was ready to come home when we picked her up. Highly recommend Jessica and will be asking her again to care for Maci!”


“I just got my pup back from his weeklong. Stay with Diana and her family. He is so happy to have spent time with her two dogs and children. I will definitely be a return customer. Your animal and Diana‘s care will receive love and cuddles and play. She’s awesome at updating you with how your baby is doing. I had total peace of mind, knowing that my dog was in such good hands.”

“I wish i could give 1000 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ She was absolutely AMAZING with our 11-week-old German Shepherd. She was very informative the entire time he was there. She sent plenty of pictures and videos to keep us fully engaged while we were away. She even assisted in finding out what was upsetting my dog’s stomach and was able to figure out that he can’t have beef (I know, the weirdest thing with a dog lol) She tried him out on the dog food she had there and his body reacted very well to it. I will definitely be rebooking here for my future sitting/boarding needs and I recommend that you do the same!!! Thank you so much, ma’am! ?”


“Teresa was awesome. She took great care of our Zb, took her on walks twice a day. Kept us updated with pictures and reports of her diet and eating habits. We felt Zb had her own vacation at the dog spa. Thank you so much. We were able to relax and enjoy our get-away.”


“We left Lucky with Emma for 2 weeks. Our first to be away from each other for that long. We missed her alot but Emma regularly updated us with videos and photos which we very much appreciated. Usually shy, we saw that she was having a great time and even made a best friend. We came back to a more outgoing and relaxed Lucky! Thanks auntie Emma!”


“They did a great job taking care of our bulldog. He is a large breed and loves attention, their whole family gave him lots of love. They were flexible with our schedule and easy to work with. Would definitely use them again.”


“Yonie was excellent! She was responsive, responsible, and sent us many pictures during our dogs visit. She really showed us that she cared a lot. I know my husky is a lot to handle sometimes and Yonie was able to handle him very well, took him for walks and made sure he was always fed properly. We could tell our dog loved to be there when we were gone and was definitely spoiled. Would definitely recommend her and we will for sure be rebooking her again whenever we need a babysitter.”


“Greg was amazing. He sent photos of our doggy, gave updates and even extended our stay when our flight got delayed last minute. Malone was happy to have a doggy friend as well!”


“Steve was WODERFUL! Not only was Peaches happy and healthy when we picked her up, but we could tell that she was VERY happy while with Steve! Peaches has a VERY strict diet and he was able to keep her safe and healthy during the 2 weeks we were away. Not only is Steve great with Peaches but he is a VERY talented pet photographer!!! The picture he would send us each day made all of us smile (and sometimes laugh)! THANK YOU Steve!!!”


“Stephanie and her family were awesome. She updated me with how Buster was doing and sent lots of photos. Her kids got along great with Buster too! He looked very happy! It gave me peace of mind that Buster was in good hands and allowed me to enjoy my vacation. Would definitely book again!”



“WOW! Piya was wonderful. From the first day to the last. She was responsive and communicated well. She let us know what was going on with our fur baby. Just when we were wondering what our kiki was up to we got a picture or a video. It made our vacation so much more enjoyable knowing that kiki was in good hands. We will definitely be using her next time.”

Waimalu dog parents share their Rover experiences
Joel is a very kind & patient man. He lives in a beautiful home, with a clean, well-groomed yard for dogs to roam. He has a very safe environment. Joel knows dogs very well and his experience with them really shows! His Corgi dog is very sweet and loving. I would recommend Joel as a dog sitter to anyone looking for someone who truly cares for pets, and who is very trustworthy.

Amber and Brandon took great care of Olive and Limu while we were away for the weekend! They're both pretty shy but they got along well with their pets and the other dog they were watching! Amber and Brandon sent pictures as requested and were very accommodating of our late pickup time

We are so grateful for Eneria and her husband for taking care of our fur baby, Thiago. We needed to go off island unexpectedly and they gladly agreed to board him despite the short notice. They were both very friendly, accommodating, and understanding. We highly recommend and will continue to utilize their services in the future .

Anastasia is an absolute gem! ✨ From the moment we met her, her calm and capable presence put us completely at ease. We never worried for a second because we knew Buxley was in the best hands 🐾. She went above and beyond by sending daily pictures and videos 📸, which our two daughters eagerly looked forward to every day—it made them feel connected and reassured while we were away ❤️. I wholeheartedly recommend Anastasia and can’t wait to book with her again in the future! 🌟

Phoebe is a very reliable sitter who I have left my young dog with three times. My active puppy gets along well with her dogs, and Phoebe is sure to take Luna on walks to help get her energy out. Having a great Rover sitter makes traveling stress free for me…and my dog!

As a first-time dog owner, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Gennifer. From the very beginning, she was incredibly understanding, flexible, and patient — especially when I needed to adjust my schedule. It’s clear she genuinely cares about dogs and treats them like her own. Her passion for animals really comes through in how attentive and thoughtful she is. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such loving and capable hands. Highly recommend Gennifer to anyone, especially if it’s your first time leaving your dog with a sitter!

Duyen provided exceptional care for our pets, giving my family and me a great sense of security and comfort knowing they were in the best hands. When we needed last-minute emergency care, she was incredibly responsive and accommodating, quickly accepting our request with kindness and professionalism. Her dedication and genuine love for animals truly set her apart. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet caregiver.
