“I really appreciate Christine watching my fur babies. I did not have to worry about my dogs during my trip. I want to thank Christine, I truly appreciate.”
“It’s never easy leaving your fur baby with someone new but, Maddy made Bella feel like family which made this transition so much easier. Maddy is a wonderful dog whisperer and a great fur babysitter. HIGHLY RECOMMEND thank you so much for a wonderful experience.”
“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.”
“Daylin did an amazing job taking care of my dog. I received regular updates, including videos and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. From the pictures, I could tell my dog was calm and happy, so I know Daylin took excellent care of him. Communication was also very efficient throughout the entire stay. Thank you so much! I highly recommend Daylin without hesitation.”
“"Johenid was amazing! Leaving my cat in a new place is always stressful, but her home was a total cat paradise—safe, quiet, and very welcoming. She gave my cat time to adjust and sent photos of him everyday. I could tell he felt right at home. Drop-off and pick-up were incredibly smooth. I will absolutely board him here again!"”
“The way Brianda opens up her home is something special. Seeing our pup snuggle with them & the bestie relationship she has with Brianda’s daughter is more than we could ever expect. She has switched a very anxious situation for our pup (who has separation anxiety) into an enjoyable experience. It’s also great that my antisocial pup gets socialization with other pups in her care. The frequency of photos is really reassuring and very much appreciated. Highly recommend!”
“Kary was a blessing to have watch our doggie Meimei! I would use her service again!! She made my fur baby feel very comfortable. We loved all the updates she had for us!”
“Kuromi had a great time with Rieko and her family! Rieko provided constant updates and lots of pictures. Although this was our first time with this sitter (and using Rover), we felt very comfortable and knew that Kuromi was bring well cared for. Mahalo Rieko!”
“Devena gave our dog Penny excellent care while we were away. Her and her daughter went above and beyond to make sure Penny was taken care of. She took Penny to dog parks, walks, and sent pictures and videos while were gone. It made us feel so at ease and we appreciate her familys efforts. We would definitely recommend her if you are looking for someone dependable and someone who loves dogs. Thank you Devena and family!”
“Let me first preface with there's not enough good things to say about our experience with Ashley! She deserves more than 5 Stars! Suffice to say, we have found a permanent boarder for our Husky, Hana! Quick, efficient and detailed updates and correspondence with plenty of photos. Our puppy Hana, is a delicate flower, very timid and practically scared of her own shadow when around strangers or in public, but it was in her stars to have someone like Ashley whom gave her the compassionate, loving care she needs. It's obvious the experience was exceptionally good for her, as she has matured so fast in just 2 weeks of boarding. We have to be thankful as well of Ashley's fur-baby Apollo, as having a grown husky to show our pup the ropes has helped her come out of her shell further. Ashley then went a step further with follow up correspondence to ensure Hana had a nice transition back home. We're so thankful, Mahalo nui loa!”
“Stephanie, thanks for watching Bandit again. He's getting spoiled sleeping indoors. But again, thnk you so much, we really appreciate your care for Bandit when we are out.”
“Simeon was fantastic! He stepped in on short notice to care for our senior fur babies and handled their medications with ease. Communication was great. He kept us updated on everything, even when Oreo got sick. We really appreciated his honesty and attention to detail, as not all caregivers are as transparent. He also sent photos and made us feel completely at ease. Highly recommend!”
“I was so happy with Jackson and so was my dog. Jackson went above and beyond as my dog is a very picky eater (even for me) but he made sure my dog ate her food by trying different things. He kept me up to date with photos and messages of my dog’s activities. Truly grateful Jackson took such good care of my dog, I’ll definitely use him again!”
“Such a sweet woman with a beautiful family. Have no doubt that my dog was given the upmost care. Definitely enjoyed the photo updates as well! Thank you April! Will book again.”

I can’t say enough great things about Grace! She was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. She sent daily updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Stitch was happy and in great hands. Her communication was amazing, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. Stitch had the best time and even made a new friend in Willow! It honestly felt like he was on his own little vacation. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Grace with Stitch again. Highly, highly recommend!
Keyshla is super friendly and did a phantastic job with our 2 shizu chihuahuas!! The dogs were happy, and that was evident in the photos that Keyshla shared of the dogs during their stay. I warmly recommend this sitter!! Great job, Keyshla, we’ll hopefully see you next time we need a sitter!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my weekend trip! She was absolutely outstanding professional, dependable, attentive, and genuinely caring. Knowing Ziggy was in such good hands gave me peace of mind while I was away. Her kindness and dedication truly stood out, and I appreciated the care she provided. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and exceptional sitter!
I highly recommend McKinsey. She is so personable and kind. She took wonderful care of my dog and treated her as her own. She is caring, attentive, reliable, and I truly appreciated the love extra attention she provided. I would definitely trust her to care for my furbaby again and recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and dependable pet sitter.
Kayla is amazing! She took such great care of Woofy. After our meet and greet, I felt like I was leaving him with family, and I was right! I didn’t have to worry one bit and Kayla always checked in with updates on how he was doing. I won’t hesitate to book with Kayla for my next doggy care. The peace of mind, knowing that I have someone I can trust him with is priceless! Thanks Kayla!
Absolutely amazing rover experience. Megan and her family took such great care of our dog and treated her as one of their one. Megan was very communicative before and during the booking. She sent us photos and updates throughout our trip. We are so happy that we already have another booking scheduled with Megan and would recommend her to everyone.
Amani was so amazing to my baby Luna! I can tell Luna was having the time of her little life and felt right at home. Great communication and kept me updated on my baby. I would definitely book with Amani again and again! Thank you for treating my baby like your own !
We had such a great experience! Robert watched our 6 year old dog for 11 days and was amazing from start to finish. Before the stay, he took the time to meet us at a dog park and then again at his home, which made us feel really comfortable leaving our dog with him. He was incredibly kind, professional, and communicative the entire time. He gave our dog his medications as needed and sent us pictures and updates every single day, which we really appreciated while we were away. Our dog can get anxious, and during the stay he unfortunately had an incident where he bit another dog which has never happened. Robert handled a really stressful situation extremely well. He was calm, responsible, honest, and communicated with us immediately about what happened. We were especially grateful for how understanding and professional he was throughout everything. He genuinely cares about the dogs he watches. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, patient, and caring!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Waipahu is $45 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 583 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Waipahu. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% of sitters in Waipahu can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Waipahu 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 Waipahu.
Tip: 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 Waipahu 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.
