“Callista was most trustworthy, communicative & responsible with our pack of 3 dogs. Text check-ins & photos were so appreciated! Callista watered the plants, cleaned the backyard, checked the mail & walked the dogs daily. The house was impeccable upon our return. The best part was....she showered the dogs with love, just like we do! Big mahalos to Callista 💙”


“We could tell immediately when we got home that our dog and cat were relaxed and happy after Cathy took care of them for several days. Our cat can be pretty aloof at times, so it was great to see him acting like his normal self when we returned.”


About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals, my love for pets is a lifelong devotion. I’ve shared my home and heart with dogs and cats throughout my life, and I’ve been a trusted pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. I have experience with animals of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—including senior pets and those needing extra tenderness or special care. In addition to hands-on experience, I bring a calm, grounded presence and a deep sensitivity to the emotional needs of animals. I’m trained in energy healing and often incorporate gentle, calming energy into my care when appropriate—helping pets feel safe, seen, and loved while their humans are away. My approach is intuitive, attentive, and heart-centered. I treat each pet as the unique soul they are, and I feel truly honored to care for them. I work from home a lot and I have the freedom to be available and present full-time. I’m devoted to being with your pet providing all their needs. I prefer to provide care in the clients home but I can also bring your pet to my home. I have a big yard and a deck that is fenced. Pets will are welcome.

About: I started watching (overnight and taking on walks) dogs at the age of 11. I absolutely adore your furry friends, and can't get enough love from the pups. Since I don't own any puppies of my own (though I do get to watch and walk my grandmother's dog often), I absolutely adore getting to steal other peoples' pups even for just a few hours! I always send pictures to the owners, but you can tell me if you'd prefer less or more! Seeing as I am out of school, and don't work a full time job, am am available for a lot of hours. This being said, I have picked up a couple other gigs lifeguarding and babysitting, so I say I am not available for potty breaks less than every 8 hours just because if there are days I do both lifeguarding and babysitting I wont be able to. That being said, outside of those two gigs, your pups (or cats), are my top priority! Seeing as I am unable to host pets in my home at this time, I would be seeing the pets in your home. I am very comfortable with this, as I often sleep overnight at one of my friends family's house when they are away in order to watch their pups. I am also happy to water plants or anything else to be of help to you.

“Faith provided wonderful care for my aging cat, Fate. She followed all my recommendations for her care and sent pictures each morning, which was reassuring. Faith is highly recommended: Fate and I say "Mahalo"!”


“Heather and Paul are so wonderful! They genuinely love animals. Caring for my animals seemed to fill their hearts and I was most comfortable knowing my cats were in good hands. Heather sent lots of pictures and I came home to happy kitties and a clean house!”


“Nathalie was an amazing dog sitting! She checked in, send photos and took great care of our dogs and house. She made sure our dogs had lots of exercise. I highly recommend her and will be using Nathalie again.”


“Alicia connected extremely well with our dog and took great care of him while we left town for the weekend. She was able to administer medicine successfully. She also communicated with us throughout the weekend, sending pictures and updates of how much fun they were having. She stayed the weekend to give our elderly dog extra support and took great care of the house by cleaning up after herself. We are thankful that we met and found someone who is respectful and cares so much for our dog.”

“Joy was fantastic! She really made sure my pup and I both felt comfortable. She sent pictures and was great with communication. I really appreciated knowing Mauka was in good hands!”


“Dani was absolutely amazing! Our usual sitter wasn’t available, I was extremely nervous and she was so sweet communicating thoroughly the entire time. So grateful she was available during the holidays and still able to enjoy her holidays! Cannot wait to utilize her expertise again! Thanks girl! ☺️”


“Gina was one the best dogsitters that has ever helped me out. I felt so at ease with her watching my quirky senior pup. she kept me very well informed, and was very communicative. you can tell she has lots of experience with dogs and that she is a natural doglover, and just a great person!! I highly recommend Gina and will definitely book with her again!”


About: Aloha! I'm Shanon, a naturopathic physician who loves to take care of pets in people's homes. I began caring for my neighbor's cat when I was 10 years old, graduating to dog care in my teens. Since then I have done pet sits in many states and countries, seeing some pets through their lifetimes. My clients have included dogs, cats, bunnies, tortoises, snails, fish and birds. I have also cared for chickens and horses and am willing to look after small farm animals such as goats and sheep. If requested, I take care of gardens/plants, mail/packages and any other issues that may arise while you are gone. Want local or distance references? There are many. Please ask for them! I look forward to hearing from you. Aloha, Shanon Much of my work is online so that I can spend the maximum amount of time with your furry, feathered and scaled friends - I aim to be at home 75% of the time. I treat all pets as my own so they get the attention, love and care they deserve. My services can also include administering medication (pills, subcutaneous injections for cats, insulin shots etc). I strive for your home to be in the same, if not better condition than when you left, and for your pets to be as well-tended to when you are away as when you are home.

About: Aloha, I’m Nina, your devoted Kamuela pet sitter. Animals are my way of life. I offer a complete package, treating your pets like extended family and your home with utmost respect.

I maintain routines, tend to details and create a cozy environment. As a part-time student in Physical Sciences and Nutrition, I blend my passion for sustainability into all I do. Your furry family is in excellent hands with my experience and empathy. Online classes grant me freedom to provide dedicated care for your pets while pursuing my studies. Balancing pet care is a breeze with my flexible schedule. I meticulously follow instructions, ensuring every detail is adhered to. I keep a watchful eye on your pet, providing supervision both indoors and outside. I create a serene ambiance to soothe your pet's nerves.

“Our boy Ben has never been happier after Erica stayed with him while we were out of the country! I can’t say enough good things about how wonderful, caring and dependable she is! ❤️”


“Jeremy did a house sit at our house for a few nights. Our dog had a great time, the house was very neat/tidy when we returned and Jeremy prepped our dog's food for the next day so we didn't have to do it when we got home (very nice of him). The updates were just enough to give us peace of mind but not so much that we were thinking about it a lot on our weekend away. We would definitely work with Jeremy again.”


About: My first pet sitting gig was when I was 12 and have consistently pet and house sat ever since! I’ve taken care of a wide range of animals from small animals such as bunnies and guinea pigs all the way up to larger animals such as horses. I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and I understand the bond between a pet and their person. My goal is to help your pet feel loved and supported while their person is away! I work 5 days a week at the Four Seasons in the pastry department. My work hours are from 5am-1pm. I leave the house early but my work schedule allows for lots of afternoon cat naps and doggy snuggles with evening walks! When booked for a house sitting job, I always put your animals first! I prioritize coming back home after work to make sure that all animals are happy and comfortable. Every pet that I’ve had the joy of watching has had their own set of needs and preferences! A large part of my job is learning about your pet and how I can support them best! One of my clients has an older dog that doesn’t go on walks anymore but she loves to be cuddled! Another doesn’t like to go on walks but loves to have the ball thrown for her! Our animals all have their own unique personalities and I love getting to know them and how to make them feel the most at home.

“Brittany did a great job of watching our combined pets for 8 days. Two large dogs, one small dog, and one house cat. She kept the separated when necessary for feedings, and made sure the dogs didn't have opportunity to initmidate the cat. One dog is an escape artist, and one likes to pee in the house. The house was clean and tidy when we returned, and there were no escapes while we were gone.”


About: As a studying herbalist who works on a farm, not only will I lovingly take excellent care of your pets, but I can also tend to your plants! I have been taking care of my cat Sage for 9 years. I have three families who I pet/house sit for regularly over the past few years. From short stays to a month at a time, cats to dogs, I have plenty of experience, and am dependable, trustworthy, and caring. I am currently traveling during the off-season of gardening in New York and am on the Big Island in Hawaii for a couple weeks! I am not currently working, so my full time job would be caring for your pets! I am able to walk pets or let them out as much as necessary, and available to spend lots of time playing with them. My schedule is open with full availability during the week and weekends. I have been pet/housesitting for 6+ years, and will care for your pets in the comfort of their home with respect to your space so you have a clean home to return to.
