1. Nicole Jane T.

“Nicole is such a blessing. She’s our first pet sitter for our dog Bailey and she exceeded our expectations. She’s kind, loving and has a gentle and calm energy to her that I knew would be a great fit for Bailey. Nicole did 2 drop in visits each day for a week. Letting Bailey out to feed her and let her roam free for the day and returned at night for dinner and put Bailey inside for the night. It took about 2-3 days for Bailey to fully let her guard down, she was a little scared and timid at first which is baileys normal behavior when she meets someone new. Nicole was so patient with her letting her know that she’s was a friend, and before you know it , Bailey would look forward to Nicole’s visits and loved all the attention and belly rubs. I enjoyed the daily pictures Nicole would sent me with each visit. It made me feel comfortable and I was able to enjoy our vacation knowing that Bailey was in good hands. Thank you Nicole for being the best dog sitter for us!!!”


2. Sarai Y.

“Definitely hire her again. She was fantastic for the care of my cat. Loved the amazing photos of her interacting with her every visit. She gave plenty of petting, playing with her toy and treats on my request. Sarai was a champ at giving her her medication, after being shown only once. She took out the trash, and cleaned her litter box. She did amazing!”


3. Wendy D.

“Wendy is awesome!! She’s kind, loving and caring with our 4 dogs. We can travel knowing that she is taking the best care of our dogs 😊”


4. Amber F.

“Amber did a great job taking care of my fur babies. Although they were out of sight the entire time (afraid of strangers) she made sure they were feed, watered and had clean litter boxes during our 2 week trip during Christmas and New Year's. She showed up on time no matter the holidays and I'm grateful for that. Would hire her again and recommend her to others.”




5. Andrew F.


“Andrew came right on time for our dog Charlie and sent us cute pictures of how Charlie was doing. He texted me while he was still with Charlie and so we communicated in real time about how the visit was going. This is the most comfortable I have ever felt about a dog sitter!!!! I will definitely use Andrew again!!”


6. Sarah L.

“I would request Sarah again and again for any future trips!! Sarah provided drop in visits for our cat while we were traveling. It made us feel so relieved during our whole trip knowing that our cat was in the best hands. Sarah was professional and provided excellent feedback from each visit with how our cat was doing—plus photos! This is by far the best cat sitting experience we have ever had. We came home to a clean house and happy kitty. Sarah went above and beyond with keeping the house/litter clean and even brought in all our mail. Thank you so much, Sarah!”


7. Kaialani S.

“Kaia was amazing with my dogs after we had issues with a friend watching them. She went above and beyond and was so nice to work with. You can tell how much she loves dogs and was great at communicating with any questions and with updates.”


8. Lily P.

“Lily is great with Jackson. I needed her at the last minute and she did not hesitate to take care of baby!”


9. Kaiewa S.
About: I’ve only had 3.5 years of pet care…as long as I’ve had my own pup. But I got him as a puppy and so I had to do all the training myself…from potty training to basic obedience training. I’ve learned a lot during this short period of time through personal experience as well as talking to other dog owners, trainers, and hours and hours of online research. I currently work full-time as a firefighter, so while I employ my own dog-sitter when I’m on shift, I do have the time on my off days to offer this service. However my schedule rotates weekly. So sometimes it does include one, two or even both weekend days and holidays as well. I have a small fenced yard and also live very close to a dog park. At home, my pup is allowed on all furniture and yours will too!


10. Kary B.
“I know for a fact that Kary Baez loves dogs! We walk around California and she stops everytime she sees one! She has also taken pictures and sent them to me of her taking care of other people’s dogs. She is a true caregiver and is a happy delightful person. Anyone would be blessed to have her in their home watching over their fur baby. She talks about how she loves dogs all the time and she really shows love to dogs even if they belong to someone else. It’s a wonderful thing to see.”


11. jane k.

“Jane was amazing! So thorough with every visit, sent pictures and detailed updates. She took time to play with our cat and had the courtesy to ask if we wanted the windows closed to better soundproof the apartment for New Years. Will definitely book again in the future”


12. Meagan O.

“Meagan was quick to respond to our needs while we took a quick getaway. She made sure our kitties were fed and sent photos so we could relax and not worry about them! Professional and dependable.”


13. Iraida P.

“Iraida dropped in on my cat while I was on vacation for almost two weeks and did an awesome job. She was very easy to work with and very dependable.”


14. Tonya F.

“Tonya is a wonderful person and we are so grateful to have had her care for our pets while we were out of town. After my last sitter moved away, I was nervous about finding a new sitter since my pets are old and have some quirks, but Tonya was amazing and treated them with the utmost care and kindness. We highly recommend her to any pet parents.”


15. Christine C.
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. I have lot of experience caring for them. I can walk, bathe, and care for them like they’re my own. I’m currently a stay home mom and homeschool my teenager. We’re home most of the day and can provide lots of potty breaks and snuggles with your dog I have a fenced in yard and a spacious home to keep our doggy friends entertained. I have one active golden doodle, and one small senior dog.


16. Deziree H.

“Deziree was wonderful with our cat. She the 1st sitter we’ve had and we felt extremely comfortable with her coming to our house. She is very reliable especially when it was during the holidays. She updated us with pictures and videos. I’ll definitely reach out to her again for future sitter needs. I highly recommend her.”


17. Paris S.
About: A loving pet sitter with 4 years of experience willing to do whatever I need to do to make sure your fur baby feels happy, safe a loved while you’re away! Currently a stay at home mom with 2 little girls so my schedule is open and will be able to give your fur baby plenty of attention. I have a big fenced in yard, perfect to run around and play in. Room for kennels and space for your fur baby to feel comfortable.


18. Lily H.
“We have two weimaraners that are rambunctious as all get out and we were worried about finding someone willing and/or capable of housesitting them for us. Lily stepped up to the challenge multiple times and did so well with them! She is very dependable and communicative so we really enjoyed having her over. We highly recommend her!”


19. Kim C.
About: My name is Kim and I am 33 years old. I grew up with a dog, and have always LOVED animals. Throughout my preteen and teen years, I was always caring for the neighbors animals (cats and dogs mostly) while they were away on vacation. I am very close with my aunt who works very closely with the MSPCA (I grew up in MA). She constantly fosters animals of all ages until they are able to find a loving forever home. She has also taken in pregnant cats and dogs, helps nurse and take care of the litters until they are old enough to be adopted. I grew up going to her house and helping with the animals. I loved every second of it, and since moving to Hawaii, I am missing it greatly! I understand an apartment in Waipahu with no yard doesn’t seem ideal, but there is a large field directly behind my building along with TONS of walking trails and parks right around the corner! I would love to help give the best care to your animals! My husband and I moved out to Hawaii to be closer with family. I am currently subbing in the surrounding school districts, so my schedule is VERY flexible! We have a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment in Waipahu. It is located directly behind Waikele Elementary, so there is a large field directly behind our building. We can see it from our lanai, so it would be very easy to get some quick energy out close to home! We live in a large, quiet complex with plenty of dogs! Each night around 6, a lot of dog owners meet at the field and have a doggy play date where we enjoy watching the dogs interact with each other. If your dog is friendly with others, I could certainly bring him there each night for some socialization! My husband and I are also extremely clean, so our apartment would be a very healthy environment for your animal!
