1. Cathy M.
“Cathy was excellent! Our boys were well cared for and she gave them all the attention that they loved. Playing with the boys was apparently the best. Our dogs looked for her for days later. Cathy is a gem!”
2. Irvianne T.
“Gracie doesn't do well with being boarded, so having Irvi stay at the house with her was the perfect solution. This was the first time Gracie was happy and wanted to play when I got home. Usually she stays mad at me for a day or two. She loved Irvi right from the start at the meet and greet. I'm not a needy pet owner needing to have updates on Gracie, so not hearing anything while I was away was fine with me. I look forward to using Irvi in the future, and having the peace of mind that Gracie is well taken care of and a happy dog when I get back home. ”

“Kelsey took amazing care of our two pups. They were well loved while we were away with long walks, snuggles and check in's to let us know what they were up to. Thank you, Kelsey!”
4. Christopher G.
“We trust our dogs and home with him completely!! Now having watched our dogs a number of times, they jump up to greet him and are so happy. We especially love that he keeps our house looking tidy and gives the dogs lots of playtime outside. Will use again and again!”
5. Jody P.
“Jojo is the best. Our pets loved her and she them. We had peace of mind while on our mini staycation here on Big Island. We highly recommend her. Ours is not the easiest routine and she took everything in stride.”
6. Patricia G.
“Patricia went above and beyond during a very long pet sitting stay (3 weeks!) with our brand new puppy Trout. Patricia sent detailed updates and photos every day, took Trout on lots of sweet outings to the beach, even took him for Pup Cups!! I cannot speak highly enough of Patricia, if you’re looking for someone to love your babies like they’re her own she is your woman!”
7. Angela K.
“I cannot thank Angela enough for taking such wonderful care of my two cats during my recent 3 week business trip! I had to leave on short notice, and she stepped in without hesitation. Angela came by daily to check on them, making sure they were fed and entertained. I loved getting regular updates and photos, my cats looked so happy and relaxed! It really gave me the time to focus on my job knowing they were in such good hands. Angela is not only reliable but also genuinely cares about animals. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my babies. I’ll definitely be reaching out for future trips. I’m so grateful for your help!”
8. Alyssa P.
“Alyssa was amazing. Came to meet Baby beforehand and took really great care of her while I was gone with lots of pictures of walks and playtime :)) I’ll be using her to dog site in the future.”
9. Nicole S.
“Nicole is an amazing pet sitter. She loves the fur babies and they love her. Came home to a well cared for fur family and house. Everyone was happy and not stressed during the whole experience. She is responsive and sends lots of updates - including pictures! We will definitely work with her again - the fur babies can’t wait!”

About: I have taken care of animals for years for neighbors and friends. I promise to care for your animals with the same level of care and love. I am retired and completely free to care for and play with your animals in your home. I believe allowing your pets to remain home in your absence is the perfect choice. I will follow your instructions for care and feeding of your animals in your home. They will have my full attention, and you will return to happy pets.
14. Brady M.
“Brady was spectacular. So professional and personal at the same time. He sat for our three dogs for 4 nights. He was super easy to communicate with, totally responsive, sent pics of the dogs and left our house completely immaculate when we got home!!! We even had an electrician ask for a pic of our breaker box for an upcoming project and he was more than happy to go into our basement to take the needed pic for us! Agreeable, friendly, responsible….I will definitely book Brady again!!!”
15. Dustin H.
“Dustin was amazing! I had to trust him because I was out of service for a week came back finding out he did even more than needed with my old pup! I appreciate him and will book again :)”
16. Kristina C.
“She was an excellent caregiver for our fluffs. Highly recommended to anyone that wants to have her as a caregiver for their fur babies.”
17. Meghan D.
“Meghan cared for our fur family overnight and we came home to all of our (emotional) rescues not worse for the wear. We are so grateful! MAHALO!!!”
18. Cimmaron C.
“Cimmaron is a true animal lover. My Senior Pup absolutely loves him because he knows how to be mindful and gentle with her. I've had her for 13 years now and there are very few people I trust to ensure her safety and best care. Cimmaron is absolutely one of those few people and for good reason.”
19. Olivia A.
About: I have worked with animals from a very young age! I treat animals like royalty (because they are) and I am a good animal reader and comforter. All of my family members and friends always call me to take care of their pets because they don’t trust anyone else! I’m also very knowledgeable about training dogs. Let me love your doggie❤️ I run on my own set schedule working from home as a silver smith, I occasionally have markets I go to, but I’m mostly free most the week if I’m not out adventuring! My home has a nice grassy area in the front and backyard, plenty of shade and fun places to play. I have a fence, but there are some openings and walkways in it so I’m willing to let dogs out on a leash if needed. If I’m able, I love to take dogs with me on walks, to the beach, and give them a fun time. I live with my boyfriend whom also loves dogs. Occasionally I will kennel the dog for small increments of time if I need to go out and do something that doesn’t allow dogs, but I prefer to be with them as much as possible.
20. Zander C.
“Zander is very in touch with the needs of animals. He is a capable caregiver and an experienced dog walker. I would trust him with my pets anytime.”
