“Excellent care for Coco was received. We were provided with daily updates which we looked forward to receive. From the beginning we could tell she felt right at home. Very clean and spacious surroundings. We would recommend Tracey and her team to anyone looking for a place for their small pet.”
“Joel was great with my mini Australian shepherd! He sent lots of photos that gave us peace of mind that our dog was doing great and was so well cared for! 😊 Thanks Joel!”
“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!”
“Scarlett had a great time & did not want to leave her! She was able to adjust her schedule with short notice and would send photos periodically as an update ! Definitely a repeat customer here ! Thanks again !”
“Emma has been an amazing part of my Toast’s life. She has taken care of her like her own. Her whole family just welcomed Toast and loved on her every time. We traveled with our Toast and she worked with us and the pet travel company to ensure a smooth travel for Toasty. I literally can’t thank Emma enough for all the love and support over the years, and will definitely use her in the future. Thank you, Emma!!”
“My lab had so much fun at her house and came home happy and tired after the weekend. Samantha kept me updated with photos and even took the extra care to reach out to me about my dog's allergies. Drop off/pick up was easy as well. I would 100% recommend her!”
“We have been using Daylin now for a while. She is so sweet with our dog, Winnie. Winnie loves going there and she’s treated like a little princess. Love giving her updates and the fact that they go on walks together. I totally recommend using Daylin for your next Pet sitter”
“I have a very anxious pup, with one too many quirks, but Brianda was very understanding and accommodating. She kept me updated very regularly and he seemed very happy when I picked him up! Definitely looking forward for another occasion to have him over for her to look after him again.”
“I would recommend Christine as a sitter for your pet. She genuinely shows how much she cared and went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable while I was away. She kept me updated shared photos regularly. She provided extra attention to my pup as he has medical issues. Her attentiveness, transparency, and honesty about how everything went meant so much to me.”
“Pyro loved KaVina so much we decided to request her to watch him during our extended vacation. KaVina did an amazing job with him again. She provided us with daily updates and let us know of any issues that arose. She was even accommodating when I messed up our arrival time and we ended up getting home 7 hours later than i initially told her. She’s been a great friend to Pyro, I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Again, took great care of my fur baby. I appreciated all the updates and their fur babies get along so well with mine. He is always happy to see them and sleep over. Would easily recommend.”
“I cannot say enough AMAZING things about Camille. She was the sweetest person ever. She took such great care of Ziggy. She sent multiple daily updates and pictures letting us know how our baby was doing. It was clear Ziggy was family his entire stay. 100% recommend. Thank you so much.”
“Our dog, Panda, immediately felt at home under the care of Maddy. We were so happy to see Panda fit right in to her family. Maddy even provided updates and videos/pictures of our dog throughout her stay. Would definitely recommend Maddy to anyone looking for a trusted sitter for their dog. Thank you, Maddy! Until next time.”
“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! ?”
“Becky is a very nice lady and has s lovely family. My dogs seem to have had fun with her. She sent photos while I was away for a short trip. I like that she does a meet and greet at her home instead of a dog park. I feel more welcome and comfortable. Thank you Becky for caring for Raijin & Kuma. We will definitely use her again.”
“Diana is our go to rover for watching Ili. Dianna and her family take such good care of Ili. We are so grateful for them because we never worry about leaving Ili when we travel and ili has the best time, it’s like Ili gets her own vacation with lots of play time. Mahalo to Dianna and her Ohana”
“Jessica was amazing. She was quick to respond and sent updates and pictures throughout the day. It seems like Cooper had a great time. Will definitely use her again.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Waimalu
Megan watched our Bentley for 10 days. She went above and beyond making sure he was comfortable. Bentley fell right back into his normal routine once home which is something he’s never done before. That tells me that he was well cared for while he was away. I would highly recommend Megan.
My husband and I went on a two-week trip. We were so lucky to find Tracey and her family to help us to take care of my dog Shadow. They were quick to respond to texts, if I had any questions or concerns. They were very professional and accommodating. They genuinely love and care about all the dogs and their well being, their home is so neat, tidy and clean! They have so many toys, more than enough for my dog and other dogs to play with. I also like how Shadow was able to hang out and socialize with other dogs. My dog came home all happy and content. I know Shadow had a great time and enjoyed staying at Tracey’s house! I also received many pictures of my dog daily during my trip! I really appreciate the pictures. It was wonderful to see Shadow having a great time with other pups while I was away. If we ever need to go away for another trip we won’t hesitate to contact Tracey’s family! Thanks again for helping us to take great care of our dog Shadow! We really appreciate all your work!
Emma is awesome!! While on our trip we were so comfortable and at ease knowing our dog Saydee was well taken care of. Emma gave Saydee her daily required meds and sent us updated pictures and videos and we could tell Saydee was content and relaxed. I would highly recommend Emma as your pet sitter when planning a trip. When we plan our next trip we would definitely use Emma again. Thank you Emma for taking care of Saydee!!!
We reached out to Eilymar on short notice for a weekend getaway, and she graciously agreed to set up a meet-and-greet that afternoon. The moment we met her and her dog, I knew our dog was in good hands. Eilymar was warm and unfazed by my anxious pup’s initial barking. Her dog was equally patient and calm. Throughout the stay, she kept us updated on how he was doing and promptly answered all my questions. Eilymar went above and beyond in taking care of my pup when he had an accident and got himself messy. Even though I felt bad that she had to deal with that, I was so thankful she kept him clean and comfortable. I highly recommend her!
Becky is a very nice lady and has s lovely family. My dogs seem to have had fun with her. She sent photos while I was away for a short trip. I like that she does a meet and greet at her home instead of a dog park. I feel more welcome and comfortable. Thank you Becky for caring for Raijin & Kuma. We will definitely use her again.
Katarina and Daniel did such a great job during our first overnight visit. They are so caring and sweet!!! Thumper had a great time with Ganja and enjoyed the scratches and snuggles. I was updated frequently and got lots of pictures about how he was doing and questions to confirm things that I may have missed. I can't wait to see them again for Thumper's next visit so he can be with his new friends.If you need someone not too far from the airport or centrally located on island, they are a great couple and sweet doggo to connect to your dog! I'm so thankful that I reached out to them!!!
Jonathan did a great job taking care of my two dogs while I took a short trip away. He was very responsive and sent photos during their stay. Jonathan had a dog of his own, which my dogs and his dogs became friends in a very short time. I would highly recommend Jonathan for your next dog vacay and I will use him on future trips.
Steve took fantastic care of my chocolate lab for over a year! He went above and beyond to make sure my boy was always comfortable and got the care he needed. He also sent plenty of picture and video updates so I’d always know that he was having a good time and well cared for. I knew it was a good sign when my dog would always be so excited to see Steve. My dog is 96 lbs and still has a lot of puppy energy but it seems Steve was more than apt to handle it. He was always our trusted go-to sitter and also our weekly dog walker! Steve walked ‘Umi every weekday during lunch, assuring he got the exercise and attention he needed when I was at work. Mahalo, Steve!
Kymberli and her family took phenomenal care of Goose! She was super easy to work with and helped us out with our short-notice booking. Gave my pup lots of love and made sure to send plenty of updates throughout the trip. We’ll definitely be booking again! Thanks Kymberli!
Anastasia was THE BEST, and we will definitely be booking her in the near future! Our Hoku loved her and was such a good girl for her. Anastasia made Hoku feel very comfortable and calm so Hoku wouldn't have so much anxiety. She had lovely soft gold Xmas lights on at night so Hoku wasn't so freaked out in the dark, and she took Hoku out to walk and play regularly, which Hoku clearly enjoyed by the photos and videos that Anastasia sent to us daily. MUCHOS MAHALO! I highly recommend Anastasia for your sitting needs!
Diana is our go to rover for watching Ili. Dianna and her family take such good care of Ili. We are so grateful for them because we never worry about leaving Ili when we travel and ili has the best time, it’s like Ili gets her own vacation with lots of play time. Mahalo to Dianna and her Ohana
Carolina and her family took exceptional care of my baby boy, Vinny, treating him like part of their own family. Their warmth, love, and attention gave me complete peace of mind during an unexpected trip. I highly recommend her and will absolutely trust her with Vinny again in the future. Mahalo!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Waimalu home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Waimalu.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Waimalu sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in HI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
