“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 🤗”
“Rebecca has looked after our cat and dog several times now over the summer and has always managed to keep them both happy and secure, despite their very different personalities! They genuinely enjoy to her visits - we'll have to get out more often! Highly recommended.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have hands-on experience caring for many breeds of dogs and cats. I’ve owned and cared for Yorkies, pit bulls, boxers, husky/German shepherd mixes, and American bulldogs, along with multiple cats. I’m experienced with daily care, walks, feeding schedules, bathing, and making sure pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I have flexible availability and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets throughout the day. I’m reliable with schedules and make sure pets get consistent care, playtime, and supervision. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and instructions provided by owners. I’m experienced handling different temperaments and making sure pets feel secure in both my home and theirs. I’m calm, attentive, and always focused on creating a safe, low-stress environment.
“Argentina was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of our pup, gave him multiple walks, and sent us several updates every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was respectful of our home, took great care of my plants, and even washed our bedsheets without being asked. She truly went above and beyond. We were so impressed that we rebooked her on the spot for our next vacation. It feels amazing knowing that our pup and home will be in the hands of someone we trust completely. We cannot recommend Argentina enough!”
“Destiny was very quick in response and kept me updated about Sinatra. She was flexible. If she's available I'm going to use her as my #1 petsitter since I travel a lot for business.”
“Alexis did a wonderful job watching my boys, Hogan and Bulleit. She sent both pictures and videos and I could tell the boys were doing good and very comfortable with Alexis. I will definitely use Alexis again in the future.”
“Very very happy with Bridget. She really took the time to learn the situation of my dog, he just lost his sister/litter mate and had been really down. She did amazing with him and I know he was treated very well because when I got home he was so mellow and looked so comfortable. Thank you so much Bridget, truly appreciate you.”
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.
“Michela was wonderful with Billy and we would definitely recommend her! She sent us lots of pictures and updates throughout our trip, followed all of our instructions, and took great care of him. She also went above and beyond by washing the bedding and leaving our house very clean and tidy. We really appreciated how attentive and thoughtful she was while we were away. We would absolutely have Michela watch Billy again!”
About: Hi! I'm Hannah, born and raised here on Oahu. I've been an animal lover my whole life and grew up around dogs and bunnies. I currently have a Cocker Spaniel named Lupin and a Lop Bunny named Mars.🐶🐰 I have experience caring for all types of dogs, including high energy, strong breeds like Afghan Hounds, so I am very comfortable walking and caring for big dogs. I also have experience with cats and am always eager to learn every pet's unique needs. I understand that caring for someone else's pet is a big responsibility. My priority is always to ensure your fur baby feels safe, comfortable, and loved as if they were my own. Outside of pet sitting, I love being outdoors, hiking, going to the beach, running at sunset, reading, and drawing. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or if you would like to discuss how I can help care for your pet!🖤🐾 I currently work full-time four days a week, with my days off being Wednesdays and weekends. I will have plenty of time on Wednesdays and during the weekend to care for your fur babies. On weekdays, I am available for dog walking after I get off work around 6:00 PM and later. Whether in your home or yours🤭, your pets will be very well cared for. From feeding, providing fresh water, and taking them on walks, to simply playing and keeping them company, I am dedicated to making sure they have everything they need. I am a very attentive and observant person, and if your pet requires any special care or specific accommodations, I will be sure to meet your expectations.
“We could not be happier with our experience. She stayed at our home for seven days (over the holidays!!!) and truly went above and beyond in every way. Our dog was clearly so happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away, which gave us complete peace of mind. On top of excellent pet care, she also took amazing care of our home. She took out the trash, started the laundry before she left, and left everything spotless. It was such a thoughtful touch and far more than we ever expected. It is rare to find someone so trustworthy, communicative, attentive, and genuinely caring. We would absolutely book her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet and house sitting care.”
About: I have grown up with dogs and had them in and out of my life. I am pretty experienced with young puppies and adult dogs. Although I am not experienced with senior care or giving medication. I am currently a part time college student that will be taking classes online. I have an incredibly flexible schedule. I will do my best to work with so that it works out for everyone. I cannot board any animals in my home however I would be happy to spend the night with your furry family members in your home. I take pet safety very serious and I’ll care for your pet like they’re my own pet. I’ll also follow any instructions, rules and dietary needs that you have for your pet. Further more I won’t leave your pet unsupervised unless in a safe or secure place and with your knowledge and permission.
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals, and I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your pet. When your dog is in my care, I treat them with the same patience, attention, and love I would want for my own. I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routine, likes, dislikes, and comfort level so they can feel safe and happy while you’re away. Whether that means going on walks, keeping up with feeding schedules, having plenty of playtime, or simply giving them extra cuddles and company, I’m happy to adjust to what your pup needs. I’m dependable, attentive, and will keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is being well cared for. 🐾❤️ I’m currently a college student taking all of my classes fully online, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to do my schoolwork from almost anywhere. Because of this, I have plenty of availability throughout the day to give your pets the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I’m able to easily work feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins around your pet’s normal routine rather than making them adjust to mine. This flexibility also allows me to spend quality time with your pet and make sure they aren’t left alone for long periods while you’re away. 🐾💕 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I understand that I’m being trusted with both a beloved family member and someone’s personal space, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide, including feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and other special needs. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could affect your pet’s safety. I’ll also respect your home and leave everything clean and secure. Most importantly, I’ll give your pet plenty of patience, affection, and attention while keeping you updated with messages and photos, so you can feel comfortable and confident while you’re away. 🐾❤️
“We never were really comfortable with leaving our boys at the clinic while we travel. Kaya made it so easy for us. She is extremely friendly, helpful, kind and informative. We would definitely recommend her!”
“Cheryl was great with our 5 year Aussie Cattle! They went on a hike and splashed around in a creek. Great with communication! Would definitely recommend her and book her next time we're in Jackson! Thanks Cheryl”
“Jessica was wonderful. My dogs were well cared for and my house was well kept. I have one dog that takes a while to warm up to people and just in the matter of one night she already had him cuddling up to her like he does to us. So grateful! We will definitely be booking her in the future!”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, with extensive experience caring for show dogs. I currently live with and help care for three show dogs as well as a parrot. I’ve also provided pet-sitting services for professionally shown dogs, ensuring each animal receives attentive, reliable, and proper care. currently work full-time as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM–3:00 PM. I’m available for pet care Wednesday and Friday evenings, as well as weekends as needed. I’m happy to work with pet owners to coordinate times that fit both of our schedules. Because I currently live with four dogs and a parrot, I’m unable to offer pet sitting in my own home due to limited space. I’m happy to provide in-home pet sitting at the owner’s residence, drop-in visits, dog walking, and other out-of-home pet care services.
“Robert is good with communication, & we always come home to happy dogs when he stays with them. So glad we found Robert as a trusted sitter for our dogs when we’re away.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs of various ages, genders, and life stages for friends and family. I have experience taking care of senior pets in critical condition and have handled emergency situations with urgency and care. I take animals’ wellbeing very seriously and I love taking care of them. I am currently unemployed and take online college classes so I have lots of free time! My only obligation is driving my partner to/from work but it’s easy to work around that! My cats are strictly indoor only and I play with them everyday to ensure they are getting good exercise and entertainment. A pet’s safety is my number one priority, they will not be left unsupervised or unleashed outside of the household while they are under my care.
“Lydia did an amazing job watching Jasmine while I was out of town for a long weekend. She was very responsive and communicated very well. I would definitely let Lydia watch Jasmine again!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Waipio is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Waipio
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🤙🫶

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Waipio walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Waipio maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Waipio 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!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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 .
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.
