Arrabelle takes such good care of Rowdy. He is exhausted from his long walks and exploratory missions with her. She takes beautiful photos of him and shares them frequently.

I had a very busy week and was delighted to find Karen to come relieve my pup and play with him once or twice a day. I could focus on my work and know Jasper was in good hands!

I recently hired Madison from Rover for a weekend of drop-in visits for our two dogs. While Madison did a decent job overall, there were a few areas where improvement is needed. She forgot to refill the water bowl on the second day, sent minimal pictures that were often blurry, and delayed picking up the dog poop until the last day, which caused an increase in backyard flies since we're in Hawaii. Additionally, there were some discrepancies in her punctuality regarding the agreed-upon drop-in times. Despite these issues, Madison was friendly and showed genuine care for our pets, earning her a four-star rating.

Sarah was great! She sent pictures everyday she came to visit Blackie. Blackie likes to hide but Sarah had a Blackie sighting and was able to get a picture. She is friendly and I am looking forward to working with her in the future.

About: I have always been an animal lover but am waiting for the right time to get a dog of my own. Through my busy schedule, I have always made time to volunteer at local animal shelters to provide time walking dogs, shelter care as well as foster care. I would be honored to provide your furry friend all the love and care every dogs deserves. I enjoy staying busy and am willing to be very flexible. I love all pups, no matter the breed, shape or size. Willing to provide leisurely walks or a quick run, whatever is needed. Will do anything necessary to provide a safe and happy experience for your pooch. I can provide care for any medical, physical, behavioral or dietary needs. Stay well and thank you for your consideration!!!

About: Aloha 🌈 I have been a pet owner for the last 11 years (dogs, cats, goats and ducks) and walked professionally on another app for 3 years in Los Angeles. I’m trustworthy and patient with reactive pets and am open to whatever your friend may need! I can take short walks, long walks, hikes, beach swims and really any activity your pet likes. I just love to be outside with animals. I can also visit at home and give lots of belly rubs and home care if that’s what’s needed. I have had elderly dogs as well and am happy and comfortable to provide special care for them. Great with huskies and couch potatoes alike. I am currently working an on-call position and always have Mondays and Tuesday off with fluctuating schedules week to week. I am available before 1pm every day though. I do travel occasionally. I will keep to your home rules and needs based on how you care for your pets. If they have a crate or area, they will be secured on your request with whatever food/water/ snacks are needed. I always prefer owners to provide snacks as many animals have allergies. I am happy to fulfill any special requests like feeding or medications.

About: Have had dogs most of my life. We have a safe and comfortable space for dogs to run around in. I also take morning and evening walks to keep them busy. Flexible with our schedule! I am home all day so will be with your pup the entire duration of the stay. Any nuances in schedule will be reflected on the calendar. I have an acre fenced yard that is well maintained and all grass. Plenty of activities and toys to keep them busy. I am only looking to house one dog at a time.

About: I grew up with 2 dogs from 6-18. I got my own dog 3 years ago and have taken care of him on my own for that time! I used to pet sit when I was younger and would watch over my friends dogs and cats while they were on vacation. I am teacher currently, so I have the summer off. I get home around 3:00 everyday and am free on weekends to help out with dog watching or walking! I have a fenced in yard at my house with a small grassy area. I allow the dogs in and out of the home with the dog that I currently own.

About: Since childhood I've had pets of all shapes and sizes. Let me care for your pet as you would do. They are ohana and deserve the very best! I'm currently working part-time and am home for the majority of time most days. Occasionally I do have to go into the office for 4 hour periods. I will visit or stay with your pet in your home. I will walk them as requested. Provide multiple potty breaks throughout the day. Clean drinking water will always remain accessible, and the feeding schedule will follow your directions. Leave me with clear instructions and I will make sure that they are safe, comfortable and happy while you are away.

About: I got my first dog when I was 4 and started dog sitting for neighbors when I was 8. I worked with a group when I lived in Kansas City that did short term in-home dog fostering for 1 day to two weeks. My puppy experience comes from a few of my friends having puppies, but adult dogs are my favorite. I work full time from home, and can schedule walks in between meetings during the day. If the dog(s) are up for it I would love to take them hiking, SUPing, kayaking, to the beach, and to hang out with my friend's dogs. I prefer to keep the dog on a similar schedule to what they are used to and not overwhelm them with new experiences while their owners are gone. Please provide me with the needed information of your dog's routine.

About: Hi, I'm Haleigh! I can't wait to meet you and your pets! I have been a dog owner for 11 years. Basil and I have lived with both dogs and cats throughout the years. I've consistently taken care of my friend's/ roommate's pets while they went out of town. I feel comfortable taking care of pets of all breeds and sizes! I'm also able to care for multiple dogs in a household, making sure that each pet feels loved. I'm here to provide all of the care, love, and walks that your pets need while you're away. *schedule* I'm currently working part-time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule! I also have reliable transportation so get to your home. I'm currently living in Kailua. *Safety* Safety is top priority for me! I have extensive experience handling leash reactive dogs. I use treat based rewards to help reactive dogs feel safe by creating positive association with their environment on walks. I'm constantly scanning for potential triggers so that I can maintain a comfortable distance on our walks. I will always double check that harnesses/ collars are secure and that gates & doors are closed/ locked. *Typical day* A day with me balances physical activity, mental stimulation, and a ton of belly rubs! I love to allow dogs to go on "sniff walks" to reduce their stress and leave them feeling enriched! I like to change up their route of walks to provide variety to their walks. *Important info* I would like to know everything to ensure your dog is feeling safe and happy! * Socialization and leash styles * Health and medical history * Special care required * High value treats * House rules *schedule* I'm currently working part-time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule!

Last night, Lehua (Ingrid) came over for a night drop-in for the 1st time. She gave kind, supportive care to my elderly dog with diligent and respectful efforts. Upon my return, my dog was happily prancing around with a lot of energy! I feel that was because Willie received great care from Lehua, while I was away. I will continue to schedule appointments for Lehua to come over to help support me and my dog.

If I could give Alyssa more than 5 stars I would. I contacted her last minute to watch my dog for six days while I was gone on a work trip. The evening I was leaving I got home from work and noticed my dog showing symptoms of an ear infection but didn’t have time to get her into the vet before my flight. The next day when the symptoms remained, Alyssa took her to the vet for me and treated her ear the rest of the trip. My dog then got diarrhea the last day I was gone, and I was out of phone service, so Alyssa handled it. During her regular visits she seemed to take good care of my dog and dedicate the time towards her care and needs. I highly recommend her if you need someone to drop in to take care of your dog.

Julie went above and beyond during her hangout with our pups. They’re not the easiest dogs and since they’re so big they can be a lot. This did not bother her one bit and I know they loved every second of her visit. Would love to have her stop by again. Thank you!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Waimanalo

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Waimanalo on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 1,396 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Waimanalo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Waimanalo stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Waimanalo 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!

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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Waimanalo with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Waimanalo. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.

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.
