“5 Stars – Truly the Best Dog Sitter! We are beyond grateful for the incredible care our three dogs received while we were away. From the start, it was clear our sitter was not only experienced but genuinely kind and attentive. She took the time to get to know each dog’s unique personality and needs, and it immediately put us at ease. We got regular updates and adorable photos that gave us so much peace of mind—it really felt like our dogs were on their own little vacation! It was obvious how much love and effort went into every part of their care. Reliable, thoughtful, and truly a gem—this is someone who goes above and beyond. We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book again or recommend them to anyone looking for top-tier pet care.”


“Thank you so much Julie! We booked very last minute and we're very anxious about leaving our boys for the first time. Julie was fantastic and made it an amazing and seamless experience. She sent lots of updates and took great care of our babies.”



“Alexa is a great sitter whom I highly recommend! She was so kind and amazing to work with! She sent photos and updates of Ari and made sure to keep in contact with me while I was gone. She communicates flawlessly and is extremely responsible. Definitely asking her to come again!!”



“Ryan was great with my little "anxious" tender guy, who loved having someone work online at home with him all day! He took good care, gave medicine, and reported in with pictures daily. I came home to a healthy, happy pup and a clean house!! Lyn”


“Definitely 5 stars. Would leave more if I could. Liz is a great pet and house sitter. She is great with our dog and cat and always follows directions well when giving medications. We even had a cancelled flight and she was very understanding and stayed an extra night. You can definitely trust her to leave your house clean and your pets well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Liz for any pet and house sitting.”


About: I work from home and am passionate about providing loving, attentive care that makes your furry family members feel safe, happy, and pampered while you’re away. With plenty of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, I tailor every visit to fit your pet’s unique needs — whether it’s playful walks, cuddle time, or keeping up with their special routines. I know how important peace of mind is when you leave your pet behind. That’s why I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s a quick check-in, an energetic walk, or overnight stay, I’m here to make sure your pet feels loved and comfortable. Book a meet and greet with me if you need pet care! Working from home means I’m able to provide pets with attention and care throughout the day. Walks, playtime, feeding, and rest are all part of my daily routine, ensuring pets feel loved and well cared for every hour. I care for pets by providing a safe, clean, and loving environment, whether at my home or theirs. I follow each pet’s routine and owner instructions closely to keep them comfortable, happy, and stress-free. My goal is to make every pet feel cared for and at ease.

“We had a great experience with Katy! She was wonderful with our pup and kept him in his usual routine. Not only did she take great care of our house, but her communication was prompt and clear, which really put my mind at ease. I would definitely use Katy again and highly recommend!”


About: I've owned various animals from cats & dogs, to rabbits, rats, and reptiles throughout my life. Since my dog passed, pet sitting has allowed me to fill my desire for animal companionship. I love to teach animals new tricks and have no problem reinforcing household rules despite it breaking my heart to say no to a cute and tender face. As a doctoral candidate most of my work can be done on my laptop, brining me great flexibility in my schedule and work location. As long as there is WiFi I can work from any house with the added bonus of taking all my breaks with a new adorable animal friend! I think it's important to keep animals on their routine to keep them happy while their favorite humans are away! I'm more than happy to accommodate and maintain their regular feeding, training, walking, and other routines that would bring them consistency :)

“Leilani was just great. She sent pictures every day, letting me know that my doggie was well loved and well cared for. After a ten-day trip, i came home to a clean and orderly house and a happy dog. Thank you, Leilani!”


“FUMIE took wonderful care of our two cats and our condo during our 8 day trip. Daily, she sent photos and videos showing her genuine bond with our two furry little boys. Fumie is reliable, trustworthy, and experienced. She communicated promptly before we left and during the trip. Without a doubt, we hope Fumie will house-sit for us again. She has our highest recommendation.”


About: I recently decided to take a break from the 9-5 life and instead spend my time doing what I love, which includes being around animals! I am a firm believer that pets are a member of the family and because of that I know how difficult it can be to entrust them in someone else's care especially when traveling or if you have an exotic animal. I not only have ample experience pet sitting for family and friends but I have personally owned a wide variety of "fur-babies" at all ages. If you are looking for someone reliable who will love your pet as their own please do not hesitate to reach out. I have experience with the following; however, I love all pets and would be happy to discuss your needs: - Large / Small Dogs (Puppy - Senior years) - Cats - Bunnies - Lizards - Fancy Rats - Fish! I have ample availability and can provide care on weekdays, weekends, and holidays. My husband and I moved here permanently and will be here to stay, so I can provide long-term services and build a trusting relationship with you and your pet(s) if needed. There is nothing worse than finding someone you love and then having to move on to a new sitter and start that relationship from scratch! Every pet parent runs their house a certain way and I respect that. If you have a routine or preferences in terms of how to provide care in your home, I can accommodate that. Your pets are naturally going to sense your absence and so adhering to their "normal" schedule as much as possible helps provide some comfort while you are away.

“Alyssa watched our cats and dogs while we took a short trip to the mainland and she was fantastic. We will definitely be rebooking with her in the future. She is so nice, the animals all loved her, and she sent us text and photo updates daily. 5 ⭐️”


About: I have grown up with pets and have house sat pets for friends and family. I employ the rules and boundaries established by the owners and try to keep the schedule as similar as possible. I am currently traveling for work and do not have scheduled daily tasks. I am available for house sitting, walks, and drop ins any days of the week. When house sitting I am pretty flexible to the needs of the owners. I can do multiple day visits, walks, maintain training, etc. Just let me know what you prefer and I will do my best to meet you and your pets needs.

About: I grew up with animals and am meticulous about making sure spaces are kept clean and that animals have everything they need to make them happy including both food, exercise and affection. I am gentle but also firm and animals seem to gravitate to me naturally. I'm currently unemployed and actively applying to jobs. Because of that my schedule is pretty flexible and I can do odd hours depending on the day. I love playing with animals and making sure they feel loved. I also make sure areas are clean when I'm done with all care needed.

About: Although I did not grow up with a pet at home, I enjoyed caring for other dogs in the past. I took care of a neighbor’s two dogs for a month in the summer (feeding, walking, giving baths, and playing games such as fetch and frisbee) and fed and walked a family friend’s dog each time I slept over, which is around thirty times. I also recently stayed overnight to care for a cat and had fun caring for him. I will love, cherish, give undivided attention, and take time to get to know your pet one on one. :) I just graduated from the University of Hawai’i at Mānoa, so my schedule is extremely flexible right now. Therefore, I will update my schedule when events pop up and/or if I take on another job. Looking forward to spending time with your adorable fur baby! I can care for your pet right at your home indoors or outside if you have a yard. Walks can be done in your neighborhood as well. Also, I will make sure doors, drawers, and bags are closed all the way, collars or leashes on securely, and follow all instructions.

About: I have grown up with big dogs and little dogs. I currently have a golden retriever who loves the water and going on long walks! I am available weekdays days after 2pm and anytime during the weekends. I am more than happy to walk rain or shine and any distance your dog needs! I have raised puppies before and cared for elderly dogs. My current home does not have a yard but have plenty of areas for walking. I am an animal lover and will take care of your furry friend as if it were my own!

“Jackie was an absolute amazing cat sitter to our girl Sushi! She immediately gave her so many great cuddles and made me feel so comfortable! I was off gird for several days when I was away, and came back to many amazing updates and photos of our kitty looking so relaxed and happy! I came back to a spotless house and really happy kitty :) will 100% work with Jackie again and highly recommended her!”


“Rochelle just immediately gelled with our Triton. I felt so comfortable leaving him with her in our home. She kept him on his schedule that he's used to and when I came home I could tell that he was surprised that I was home and she wasn't there. Will definitely recommend her for others, but hopefully not too many as I will be needing her again many more times now that I know we have someone we can rely on. Thank you Ro! ~Dee”


About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, including dogs, cats, and bunnies. Most of my pet-sitting experience comes from watching my siblings’ dogs while they’re out of town. I'm a proud aunt to six fur babies and a bonus mom to my boyfriend’s sweet kitty. Outside of family pets, I’ve cared for young puppies (8–10 weeks old), senior dogs, and shy rescues. I also have some experience administering basic oral medications. I’m comfortable with all ages and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality! I work early hours and virtually, so I’m available for check-ins during my morning break and after 2PM most weekdays. My schedule is flexible depending on the day, and I’m also available on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine whenever possible. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. I follow your instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and prioritize your pet’s safety at all times. I always make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure and that pets are never left unattended in unsafe situations. I also clean up after myself and your pet to keep your space tidy and comfortable. Communication is important to me, so I’m happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is in good hands.

Summer C.
“I have known Summer for 18+ years. As a young adult she has proven to be a mature, honest, reliable and completely trustworthy person. Over the last several years, she has cared for our family dogs during overnights and extended weekly time frames. Without exception, she has shown them the same safe and loving care that we expect. They always greet her with enthusiasm and complete trust. Awesomeness? YES! As a High school Senior: Presidential Award for Educational Excellence; Washington State (Academic)Honors; Captain of School Cheer Leading Squad; Homecoming Court; and as a first semester college student, a 3.8 academic achievement. Her past job experiences qualify her for dealing with clients and provided her with customer service expectations. A completely well rounded young lady!”

Allie H.
“If I were to describe a person who unconditionally loves animals, it would be Allie! Not only have I seen her care for her own animals with a love that rivals all else, but she is also a saint when it comes to interacting with/caring for other people's pets as well. I have seen this first hand as Allie has watched my *sometimes spicy* cat on several occasions. She always does an impeccable job, and has done the unthinkable and befriended my antisocial cat. I would trust her to watch every single animal on the planet if that were an option!”

Jennifer L.
“We had very high maintenance dogs and needed someone who could watch and care for our animals as if they were their own as well as be okay with special needs and instructions on how to care for them. One of our animals was epileptic and required special medication provided to him multiple times a day with still having a chance of a seizure and the other was a very anxious and high stressed dog that needed someone who is calm and loving for him to feel comfortable. Jennifer, or as we call her Lina, has watched our dogs many times. We never once questioned or were worried about our animals when she watched them because we knew she would care for them as if they were her own pups. She is a very trustworthy and reliable person. I never doubted her in any aspect of caring for our animals or knowing that they would be safe in her care. She loves animals and has a wonderful heart. She will do everything she can to make sure your pets are loved and cared for while you are away.”

“Kayla is a must have asset when needing care for your fur babies! She's very punctual and attentive to me and my dog's needs. Whether it's just a quick walk or over night stays, she will quickly become your go to person for when you're in need of pet care!”


Hannah T.
“Absolutely fantastic! I recently had the pleasure of hiring Hannah to care for my dachsund mix, Falkor, while I was away on a trip. From the initial meet and greet, I could tell Hannah was a true dog lover. Falkor took to her immediately, and I felt completely at ease leaving him in her care. Throughout the week, Hannah provided regular updates, including photos. When I returned, Falkor was calm and content, which is a testament to the excellent care he received. I highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. Her passion for dogs shines through in her work, and I will definitely be booking her services again in the future. Thank you, Hannah, for taking such wonderful care of Falkor!”


Sophia D.
“While I was away on vacation for two weeks, Sophia was responsible for taking care of my dogs by feeding them twice a day, taking them on daily walks, refilling their water bowls, and picking up after the dogs in my backyard. She was very thorough and prompt with her tasks and was very patient with my very stubborn dog while on walks. I recommend her 10/10.”


Taylor R.
“I have known Taylor now for 5 years and she is the only person that I would trust with my own dog. I have seen her as an owner before with a dog named Bubbles and she was outstanding, always taking her on walks when she got home from work, socializing her, getting her toys and treats while ensuring her health was in great condition! I would highly recommend her to watch anyones furry friend and have peace of mind that they are in good hands.”

Bailey W.
“Bailey has watched my large, rambunctious dogs on multiple occasions. She cared for my dogs as if they were her own, providing lots of photos and updates throughout her stay. Bailey was extremely consistent with care and always arrived on time or earlier for check-ins. I would continue to use her services to this day had she not moved out of the area. Overall, Bailey is a great sitter and provides top-tier animal care.”

“Casey was great! Very responsive, our cat and dog were happy and she even cleaned up the house and washed our sheets before we got home. We will be using Casey again.”
Waimanalo pet parents share their Rover experiences
Leilani and Luke did a fine job taking care of Dora, my Golden Retriever. Dora seems to love both of them – happy to see them, a little sad when they left. They arrived on time and sent me pictures almost every day. When I returned home I found a happy dog and a clean, neat house. I had engaged them for a previous house/dog-sit (through Rover), but I forgot to write a review. This second time was shorter, but equally satisfactory. I happily recommend.

I think Rebecca had bonded very well with my dog Zoe while I was away for Zoe did not show any sign of separation anxiety upon my return. Zoe actually looked for her in her room after she left.. Rebecca was also very good in sending updates and pictures everyday and that had helped me to relax and enjoy my vacation 5000 miles away from home !
