“This is 2nd time booking Meagan and she’s proven to be reliable, kind, trustworthy and responsible with our 2 fur babies at our home ❤️ our one, usually aggressive doggie liked her from the first intro 🤗”
“Lawrence did a wonderful job taking care of my big baby while I was away. He arrived promptly on time, and was so caring to keep up my old dog’s routine, and keep her company while she enjoyed her favorite activities! He also gave me plenty of updates with pictures so I never had to worry while I was gone. I came home to a happy pup as well as a clean and cared for house. Looking forward to rebooking with him!”
“Shalyn was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my fur babies while I was gone, and she sent plenty of updates. We will 100 percent be booking with Shalyn again!”
“Jessica was a life safer; allowing the whole family to go stateside while being able to leave our two older dogs with someone at home relieved a lot of anxiety. She was a good communicator, took great care of the dogs, and left the house in excellent condition. I would definitely recommend and hope to book her again in the future!”
“Amber is the best dog/house sitter I have ever had! She was punctual, trustworthy and was great with communicating to me how my dog was doing. I will definitely be using her services again. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving sitter for your furbaby.”
“Rebecca was awesome. She sent me lots of pictures and videos while she was watching hing my dogs. She also appreciate that she was able to accommodate my last minute request.”
About: Former Air Force medic transitioned into veterinary medicine. I treat every pet like family - keeping tails wagging and cats purring while you’re away, so you can have peace of mind. As a veterinary technician and pet owner, I have experience with dogs, cats, turtles, tortoises, rabbits, chickens, and fish. I cater to you and your pet’s unique needs! (Military Base Access) I currently work Monday through Thursday from 9am - 4pm and Sunday from 8am - 5:30pm. I can drop by during noon (depending on house location). I am free all day Friday and Saturday! Depending on your pet’s age and energy level, I tailor care to meet their physical needs and provide mental stimulation. I like to start the day with playtime or a walk to help them relax and rest comfortably until it’s time for more activity in the afternoon or evening.
About: I have prior experience working as a dog handler and customer service representative at a boarding facility paired alongside with relevant experience as a vet tech assistant in an animal hospital. I know the hustle and bustle of life may sometimes keep you from being able to fully engage with your pet, or you may just want to ensure your pet is on their own staycation while you and your Ohana go on your vacation! That’s where I come in. I have been around dogs all my life and am aspiring to become a veterinarian sometime in the future so I know how much love and care your animal deserves. You can trust me to care for your pet as if they were my own!
About: I've lived with 2-3 dogs at a time my whole life (and currently just got a puppy). My largest dog was a Labrador, smallest was a terrier mix. I've taken care of a dog post-leg amputation and requiring oral meds daily. I pride myself on being able to teach dogs new tricks - favorites have been beg, roll over, and crawl. I've dog-sat at relatives homes and had friends dogs stay in my own home. Bonus: my sister is a vet so I have quick and easy access for any questions or concerns, and I'm a nurse practitioner so I have my own extensive medical background. I'm currently working 3-4 days a week while my husband also works 3-4 days a week as well. Daikon usually goes on 3-4 walks a day and is fine staying home alone for several hours so if this sounds like your pet, its the perfect fit! I have a puppy who is crate-trained. I have boarded friend's dogs in our apartment without a crate, which is also fine. We like to take our fur baby out to the pet store to browse, the dog park every afternoon, and short morning and night walks.
“Destiny stayed at my place to watch my two dogs for a 6 day stay. I'm very happy with how everything went. My furry friends were well taken care of and Destiny left my apartment the way she received it. I would hire here again if I need her to house sit for another trip.”
“Absolutely excellent first experience with Naomi house sitting on a long weekend. I received regular communication and photos, and it’s clear my dogs were well taken care of.”
“Ryan was a life saver for our dog, Snoopy! We had booked a last minute trip and struggled finding an overnight sitter for our dog. She adjusted her schedule to work with ours so that she could help watch our dog. We were so unorganized as well but she still came through for us! She even helped us out with feeding our outdoor cat which was a huge help! Will definitely book again in the future.”
“Fabi was great at communicating with us about our pets and their needs! We often got pictures and updates during our time away. She prioritized our fur babies even during the holidays. Overall I think our pets enjoyed having her! ☺️”
“Jordan was awesome! We recently moved to town and needed a last minute dog sitter for 2 days for our pup, and Jordan was available. He came over for a meet and greet and provided lots of updates during the stay. He picked up very quickly on our dog’s quirks (he’s kind of difficult on his leash)— Jordan handled him well! We’ll definitely be rebooking in the future.”
About: A BIT ABOUT ME: I’ve been around animals literally all my life. Throughout elementary and high school, I volunteered at the Hawaiian Humane Society and the Honolulu Zoo. Growing up, some of the pets and animals I’ve taken care of were: Dogs Cats (currently I have three cats now) Smaller pets (rats,mice,birds and rabbits) Ducks Chickens A lot of fish and even a baby pig, that required nursing. I work at a dog daycare, but am currently seeking clients to transition to Rover full time and am willing to be flexible. If you are planning an extended trip and need someone to watch your pet everyday, I might be a great fit. I have worked at the pet daycare for 9 years and have experience with monitoring and working with a pack of around 40 dogs (or more) Some of the other jobs I have at the dog daycare are: -Cleaning kennels -Laundry/Dishes/General Cleaning -Cat playtime -Litter box cleaning -Rabbit Care -Preparing food bowls -Dog walking -Enrichment activities for the dogs (such as puzzle time, basic command training, arts and crafts for the dogs, bedtime stories) -Basic grooming (such as nail trims, baths, blow drying brushing and ear cleaning and teeth brushing.) -Monitoring dogs during swim classes -Administering medications to pets -Giving extra attention to animals who are seniors or have special needs PLEASE NOTE When I meet you and your fur babies I would like to spend at least an hour with them before scheduling a pet sitting or regular walking, to be sure they feel comfortable with me. Things I need to know from you: -If your pet has special needs, health problems, allergies, separation anxiety, issues with taking medications, is food/toy aggressive with humans, or other dogs. -If your pet requires medications, any tricks or treats you use. -If your pet has any anxiety at bath time, or during nail trims -If there is anything I can do to make them feel more comfortable, relaxed and happy, please let me know. What you can expect from me: -I will absolutely give your fur babies the love and care they need. Should they require extra attention, you can rely on me. -To give you peace of mind, after a walk visit is completed, or while you are away on a trip, I will update you with a fun report, via email or text. Please note that should an emergency arise, I will call immediately. All animals are special to me…with the exception of spiders. You can trust that while your fur baby is in my care, they will be well looked after. To start, I’m able to work Sunday mornings, Mondays and Wednesdays. If more time is required, I’m flexible. Currently I’m starting as a dog walker, if clients increase I will devote more time to dog walking and eventually sitting Currently, I am available for dog walking specifics on where to collect/return dog can be individualized to meet client’s needs. I would prefer not to enter the client’s home, but if it is necessary, I am willing to do so. If client requests home entry, I will need to meet with owner and dog in client’s home at least twice, to be sure the dog feels comfortable with me. If client prefers leaving the dog in an enclosed yard, one meeting with both dog and owner should suffice, but all decisions will be made case by case.
“By the looks of the pictures I received, I think our dog really enjoyed having Bailey as a dog sitter. We were out of town for 8 days and Bailey spent a lot of time with our girl, giving us peace of mind. We asked Bailey if she’d be willing to stay one more night to take away something our neighbors with new babies offered to do and Bailey was more than willing to do so for the regular price. We appreciated that!”
“Arianna was amazing. She took care of our babies as if they were hers and went above and beyond for them when we were on vacation. Thank you, Arianna! You’ll be our to go girl now.”
Waipahu pet parents share their Rover experiences
First off I have never had anyone stay at my house to sit Mattis. I am very particular of my personal space more so allowing a stranger into my house while O was away for thousands of miles. I did not know that Leonard only provided sitting at one’s home here in Hawaii (in Texas he boards). However, after reading Leonard’s reviews, and realizing this, I decided to get outside my comfort zone and allow a stranger into my house, based on his past reviews. After having Leonard come by the house to meet Madison and to show him around to set expectations, I felt much much more ease. However, the doubt and concern were still there. Leonard not only met but he exceeded way above and beyond my expectations this experience. My entire house to include the common areas and the room for Leonard to sleep was completely intact. Walking into my house it felt like nobody had been there. Mattis was well cared for, did not smell, was in great spirits, and appeared to have been well taken care of. Leonard understood the little nuisances when taking Mattis out and the small details on how Mattis reacts to other dogs to include lizards LOL. I 100% recommend Leonard to anyone needing attention to detail and love looking after their pupper. Leonard is a good man, gentle, caring, and all around respectful when staying at your home. He will communicate as much or as little as you want. I left for a week and returned to my house exactly how I left it and maybe even better than as if I was here. Mahalo nui loa Leonard🤙🫶
Jocelyn was amazing! Our dogs loved her and she sent the best photo updates. Our Maltese, Ellie, who is sometimes nervous with new people, warmed up to her quickly. Our Aussie border collie, Enzo loved being able to go on runs while we were out of town. Our dachshund, Evie, takes seizure medications daily and they’re vital for her health and we had full confidence in leaving our fur babies in Jocelyn’s care. We would love to have her care for them again in the future.
Megan was simply amazing! Great communication, constant updates & pictures, kept our dogs and their area spotless, and most importantly treated my doggos with so much love and care! She even brought over her own treats to spoil our babies. Over and over again I would and will choose Megan! Amazing sitter and person!
Katelyn was such a lifesaver! After two Rover meet and greets didn’t work out, I contacted her for a house sitting stay the following day. She came over at 8:30pm to make sure it’d be a good fit. She took great care of my girl. I HIGHLY recommend Katelyn to everyone! Will for sure rebook with her in the future!
