About: As a professional hypnotherapist specializing in emotional trauma, I bring a calm, empathetic presence to pet care. Combined with my nannying background and experience raising three dogs from puppy (2 Bullterriers & 1 Staffordshire mix) and currently caring for my recently adopted 1.5 year old female doberman, I create a balanced environment perfect for soothing anxious pets, and caring for dogs of all ages I am currently building my business and have plenty of flexible home office time, so there is lots of time and opportunity to go for walks and play time. Our home is roomy & secure and I can fit a small to medium crate if needed. We have lots of walkways and I love to go take dog for beach walks or easy hikes when I can

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was always surrounded by dogs, and over the years I’ve developed a genuine love and appreciation for how much joy, comfort, and unconditional love they bring into our lives. My dog Charlie had the biggest impact on me. His love was completely unconditional, and he taught me just how special the bond between a person and their dog can be. Because of him, I believe every dog deserves to feel that same unconditional love, patience, safety, and kindness. When caring for your pet, I want them to feel comfortable, secure, and cared for just like they would at home. I’m attentive to their individual personalities and needs, whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or simply looking for some extra companionship and cuddles. Your pet is more than just a pet—they’re family. I’d be honored to give them the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. 🐶❤️ My Availability 🐾 I work full-time during the week, so my availability is primarily in the evenings. I’m generally available after 5 PM for evening walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. On weekends, I have much more flexibility and am available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, and boarding. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that works best for you and your pet! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Since I provide care in your home, I make sure to follow your instructions closely and keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I’m responsible, attentive, and always aware of my surroundings when caring for pets. During walks and outings, I pay close attention to traffic, other animals, and anything that could potentially put your pet at risk. I also understand that I’m being trusted with both your beloved pet and your home. I treat every home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine, and I’m mindful about keeping doors, gates, and other entry points secure. My goal is for you to feel confident knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and in good hands while you’re away. ❤️

About: I have a long history of experience in fostering, as well as various pets of my own. I have fostered more neo-nate kittens, puppies with medical needs, and specialized care cats as well as dogs than I can count! I also have experience working in a doggy daycare and boarding facility. Due to this position I held, I have great experience reading dog body language and lowering stress levels. Additionally, I have trained puppies and am absolutely comfortable aiding you in helping your puppy achieve milestones! I work part time (3x a week) in an animal care facility, and only between the hours of 6am-12pm. Other than those hours, I am consistently present to spoil your fur babies ! I do not have a personal yard, although I run a cycle of 4 walks a day for outdoor engagement. These length of each walk is entirely up to you and your pup. If you prefer care in your home, you structure what your pups day looks like in regards to walks / yard time. Every pet in my care receives daily enrichment activities and personal 1:1 attention. Dogs will be crated at night with proper bedding and constant access to water ( also food if your baby free feeds) and any other preferences. If you’re boarding your cat, they will have a room to themselves that is set up specifically for them to provide them with a safe and comfortable space overnight to limit any possible stress.

About: I have been an animal lover since I was a young child. Most animals trust me, and love my energy. They have always been my focus, and I know they can sense my genuine love for them. My pet care journey started in 2016. I never knew a pet care business existed before then. Once I started meeting clients and animals... It just became natural to me. I’ve met so many animals in the past couple years, and I’ve learned so much from behavior to medical care. It’s been awesome!! I’d love to help you and your furry friends. Dog Walking, Pet Sitting, and Pet Overnights in your home. Known for Text and Photo Updates. Great References. “My passion is to help animals. They can sense my genuine love for them” Please Book a Meet n Greet ahead of time. Thank you! Pet care easily fits into my weekly routine because I’m home often and love having dogs around. I can work around feeding, walks, and playtime to keep your dog happy and cared for. I have a fenced yard and help from my husband to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed and always keep a close eye on them to make sure they’re safe and comfortable.

About: I’ve walked dogs of all sizes from tiny chihuahuas to big, energetic labs • Comfortable giving meds (pills, drops, etc.) even to pets who aren’t big fans of it • I’ve looked after senior pets and know how to go at their pace • Used to high energy dogs who need a lot of playtime or long walks • I’ve done overnight pet sitting, including feeding, walks, and lots of cuddles • Love cats too I’ve cared for both super social and very shy ones • Good with litter boxes, scratching post setup, and keeping things tidy • I’ve taken care of rabbits, fish, and even a few reptiles • I’m big on sending photo updates I know how much it helps when you’re away • Totally comfortable with quirky or anxious pets every pet has their own personality! Pet care is a natural part of my day I genuinely enjoy being around animals, so it never feels like a chore.

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s, I always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: I’ve been around dogs for pretty much my entire life! My family dog, Buddy, is 12 years old, and we’ve had him since I was in 7th grade. Even after moving out, I still make time to help care for him and take him on walks. At the end of August 2026, I adopted my own dog, Nami! She’s one year old, very friendly, and full of energy. Since she’s still young and has lots of energy to burn, I take her to the dog park almost every day so she can run, play, socialize with other dogs, and get in her exercise. It’s given me plenty of experience keeping an active dog entertained and making sure she gets the physical activity and social interaction she needs. I’ve also had the opportunity to foster 3 puppies that I rescued, starting when they were just two weeks old! This has given me hands-on experience caring for very young puppies, including their feeding, daily care, and changing needs as they grew. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I also understand how important communication is when someone else is looking after your pet. I make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and pictures throughout visits so they know how their furry friend is doing. I’m always happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and any specific instructions to make sure they get the same love and attention they would at home! I have a very flexible schedule, so I’m available throughout the week for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet care. Since I’m home most days, I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. While I’m currently not able to board pets in my home, I’m happy to care for them in the comfort of their own home where they’re most relaxed. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of playtime, walks, and lots of love and attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands.

About: As owner of Doggie Paddles, which served the Windward Side for nearly 25 years, I've cared for every size dog from teacup to giant Some impeccably trained, others not so much. I'm confident in what I do, but know enough to realize each pet and owner has unique needs. I take notes from everything about your dogs health to the location of your breaker box. I love taking photos of the pets in my care, which is why you don't see many photos of me with my BFF's. I work part-time in a Temple Valley office. They appreciate that for me to be happy means being flexible so that I can continue pet sitting. Privacy/security is important to me. I'm off the grid as far as socials go and ask who knows your off island and what cars should be in your driveway. I don't have a magnet on my car alerting the neighborhood your possibly away.

Avery is fantastic. She took great care of my three very energetic labs while we were away for 2 weeks. She cleaned up behind them both outside and inside the house and was very patient with our male dog pooping and peeing inside despite knowing better. She gave them lots of play time as well. Avery let me know my dog’s med was running out so I could order a refill; she even went out of her way to pickup the medication from the vet so she wouldn’t miss a dose. I had no worries while away; Avery def gives you peace of mind if you need to leave your dogs! She took lots of pictures and left informative and entertaining notes. Will definitely book again.

Sophie was a wonderful friend to my feisty puppy and took such tender care of my 19-year-old senior cat. She was prompt, attentive, and an excellent communicator throughout. My puppy adored her from the moment they met, which is always a good sign! She carefully followed all of my instructions, respected our home and property, and consistently went above and beyond. She even left everything cleaner and tidier than she found it after every visit. I wholeheartedly recommend Sophie to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely caring drop-in pet sitter. Your fur babies will be in excellent hands. 🐾

Ebony was such a lifesaver! I went on a long trip and needed someone reliable and trusty. She really pulled through. She watched my chocolate lab for 2 weeks and during that time she loved him like he was her own. She sent pictures pretty much every day and sent little notes about how things were going. When I got home I found she’d left him some extra treats, and even cleaned up the floors(he sheds like crazy)! I will certainly be a repeat customer for all my trips forward. Thank you so much!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Waipahu

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Waipahu is $39 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $39 per visit. 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 November 2026, there are 1,396 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Waipahu. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Waipahu 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 Waipahu 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 Waipahu. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
