“I was in a bind looking for a sitter for my boy Max. On short notice Andrea was able to watch Max. She came over each day to take care of Max and provided pictures. We were missing Max and those pictures meant a lot!”
“Amazing, couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our animals while we were gone! Really went the extra mile! Will definitely be booking with Rebecca again in the future :)”
“Ekolu is always excited to see Sophia for his weekly visits. She is reliable and attentive to his needs. Sophia provides detailed reports on his Rover card which i enjoy reading. I know that Ekolu will have the best care when he’s with Sophia!”
“We felt so comfortable leaving our dogs with Tiffany. She was punctual, attentive, and gave them all the love and attention they needed while we were away. We came home to happy pups, fresh water, and poop scooped. It was such a relief knowing our fur babies were in good hands!! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter! 🐾”
“We’re very grateful for Kaelyn. She was able to rescue us by agreeing to care for our cats for two whole weeks with very short notice! Kaelyn is a great communicator and did an excellent job not only taking care of the cats, but also taking care of the house and handling some unexpected issues. Kaelyn went beyond what was expected of her and we strongly recommend her as a reliable animal caretaker!”
“Robin did a fantastic job of taking care of my cats and kittens. She is very knowledgable about pet care, and I really felt at ease knowing she was watching after my babies. I will 100% book Robin the next time I need a sitter, I really couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thanks Robin!”
About: I’ve cared for two amazing dogs in my life for years. I’ve walked them, bathed them, fed them and gave numerous belly rubs :). I would love the opportunity to live on your dog as well. I am currently a graduate student so my schedule is pretty flexible. Changes that need to be made will be updated as needed in a timely manner. The house sitting service would be at your house, and on walks I would always have your dog on a leash and under control at all times.
“I've been using Krysthan for several years now and she is superb and personable. She goes the extra mile when I request extra things and I actually think my cat might like her more than me lol”
About: I have 2 dogs & 6 cats of my own. I am well-versed in daily dog & cat care (including medication, hygiene, diet, etc.), dog & cat-walking, training, rescue & rehabilitation services, & post-surgery care. I work from home and am currently available 24/7 for animal care - if you're looking for boarding and/or daycare services, please make sure your pet is socialized as I have 2 dogs & 6 cats. I have a fenced in front yard & back yard and my pets are socialized so they will have company. I also have crates & cages available in case separation is needed, but I let me animals roam free for the most part.
About: I've fostered cats through the SPCA for years and have had cats of my own for my whole adult life. I grew up with a high-energy, loving dog and cared for her from puppy all the way into her old age. I work around my wife's work schedule for childcare purposes. I am available most days of the week, I'm just not always sure what days those are going to be until a month in advance or so. My indoor cat is your typical lazy, Garfield-like cat. Eats, sleeps, eats again. She is very friendly, so I am very accustomed to and fine with cuddly cats. One of my free-range cats is not cuddly in the slightest, so I am also familiar with taking care of cats that aren't too fond of strangers.
About: I love being outside, so I'll be happy to take your best friend wherever they want to go. I grew up with pets, I've attended dog training courses, and there's never been a time in my life when I didn't have a dog. I believe in safety first and following the rules, so your pup/ or cat are safe with me. I'm pretty flexible, so if there's anywhere in particular you'd like your dog to visit, just let me know.” I work from home so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pup. I'm available for boarding during the week and on weekends. I have a fenced-in yard, and a dog park right down the road. We have a very lovable dog and a dog friendly cat. Your pet is free to roam around the home or be crated if that's what you prefer.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 8 years old. My family had birds, bunnies, cats, dogs, turtles & fish. Pretty much any pet you can think of, I probably owned it. We have our sweet dog Juneau. She gets along with dogs and cats so as long as your pet is friendly, we can probably board him/her. I work from home during the week and shoot photo sessions on the weekends but my wife is home if I am not so your pet is not left alone. We love to give lots of play time and go on walks. Pets are allowed on furniture and on bed. We have a fenced in yard.
“Arianna was absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond by sending many updates, checking in on me and my new puppy even when she wasn’t here for a visit, she was extremely patient with my new puppy, even helped clean up a mess in the crate a couple different times. I will definitely be re-booking! I highly-recommend her care!”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, both owned and fostered and all different sizes! We also have 2 large pups who love to play with other dogs. I am comfortable and familiar with administering medication or whatever your animal may need with clear instructions. I work remote several days a week so I have flexibility to check in on or walk your animals! I am also available on weekends for check ins if planned in advance. I have a fenced in yard and 2 active pups. I will typically not offer in-home care unless there are meet and greets first, as we have a little one in the home.
About: I have had dogs my entire life, I have experience training 4 dogs from puppy age through middle age and up until senior age! The dogs I have taken care of range from big dogs (german shepherds) to tiny dogs (teacup chihuahuas). I have a very active lifestyle that allows me to have fun with the dogs and get them active. I have experienced working with shelter dogs, I actively walked them and fed them. I HAVE BASE ACCESS :) !! My schedule has my days ending early afternoons so I would be available to stop in for walks/check-ins after. My nights are flexible for night visits. I currently live in dorm housing where animals are not allowed but for care inside client homes I will keep a watchful eye when letting your pet out and pay close attention to instructions.
About: As a lifelong dog lover with three pups and over 15 years of pet-sitting experience, I provide dependable, loving care so your dog feels comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for. work full-time but maintain a reliable daily schedule that keeps my three dogs happy, exercised, and well cared for. I’m home regularly and always make time for play, potty breaks, and check-ins. Your dog will fit right into our routine. Your dog’s safety and comfort come first in our home. We have a secure backyard and three small, friendly dogs who love meeting new friends. Your pup is welcome to sleep in our room with us for extra comfort, or we can crate them if that’s what you prefer. I keep a clean, calm environment so every dog feels safe, loved, and at ease.
About: From the first day I was born, I was surrounded by cocker spaniel puppies of my mother's. I was raised to care of different types of animals from dogs, cats, fish, turtle, bunnies, and mice! I have a great fondness and love for animals, especially dogs. We lost our 9 year old Maltese last August and would like to take care and provide some love for other dogs. I've house-sit/dog-sit my neighbor's black lab since 2008, and occasionally dog sit my friend's Australian Shepherd-Corgi mix puppy. I've also house-sit/dog-sit my coworkers black German Shepard several nights last year. I'm sometimes described as a dog whisperer, as dogs have had a natural fondness and friendliness with me. I have a night job as assistant manager/server in DT Bellevue, but morning and afternoon are wide open to take care of your furry companion.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Waipahu
I had a great experience with Jocelyn! I made a last-minute booking, and she was so accommodating and willing to help me on short notice despite my dog being not friendly and agressive. She took great care of my dog and kept me updated, which gave me peace of mind while i was out of state. I appreciate her kindness and excellent care.I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
Shandri and Thomas did an amazing job. I could tell from the abundance of pictures that they were getting so much love and attention. One of the pups had tummy problems mid-trip and Shandri communicated quickly and was able to make adjustments that had my Lucy feeling better right away. It gives so much comfort to know that someone was really looking out for our girls when we weren't there. They truly went above and beyond what was asked of them and it was greatly appreciated.
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. 🐾
Megan was absolutely INCREDIBLE! We were so nervous about finding the right sitter for our Chapo, especially since he can be reactive and very protective of his space. From the moment we met her, though, Megan made us feel completely at ease. What truly sets her apart is her patience, empathy, and genuine love for our fur friends. She took the time to understand Chapo’s personality and needs, made sure he felt safe and comfortable, and even went above and beyond by caring for his hygiene, health, and our home. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, but that’s exactly what Megan does. We felt confident that Chapo wasn’t just being watched, he was being cared for and loved. We’re so grateful to have found her and can’t recommend her enough. Thank you SO much, Megan, for treating our Chapo like family!

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.

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.
