Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Cynthia was a perfect pet sitter for our little kitty. We knew from her extensive experience with cats that Nala was in good hands. She was extremely responsive via texts when we were away, ensuring us that the 2 of them were having a great time. She went absolutely above and beyond by scrubbing our bath and toilets to remove our mineral deposit rings that we haven't been able to get rid of! She even left the name of the product she used so we can get more in the future. The house was cleaner than when we left. We'll have her back anytime!
"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.
Kendra was a great cat sitter to Genepi and she truly is a cat whisperer. Genepi usually takes 4 days to make friends with a new person but she came out and made friends with Kendra Day 1! Kendra regularly sent wonderful videos and pics of Genepi purring happily. The apartment was neat when we returned and our garden was blossoming. Would absolutely ask Kendra to sit again and highly recommend her. Thanks Kendra!!
I am struggling with naming our top adjective to describe Michael and Jeanne. "Conscientious" will likely be it but then again, "personable," "reliable," "organised," and "animal-loving" are top contenders. If you are reading this review and contemplating inviting this couple to watch your pets, then look no further. We have had a number of excellent house sitters but this pair was next level in terms of the love they showed our cats, Maxx and Nala. When we came back, we could our animals already missed them. These cats, who have never slept with anyone other than us, were getting in bed with them each night -- and that meant climbing stairs! The day before our trip, Nala got an ear infection and had to be put on steroids for asthma. Michael and Jeanne did not sign up for that when the sit was booked but they took it in stride. In the last-minute rush, I relayed that Nala needed her oral steroids morning and night. Michael read the RX label, indicating one dose a day, and contacted the vet to clarify. So you can see why "conscientious" is right up there. They saved Nala from an overdose! We were gone three weeks and they sent us just the right amount of pictures and videos. They bought cat toys (I forgot to put ours out!) and actively engaged with them, including 20-minute massages for Maxx. I truly believed them when they said they fell in love with our fur babies. The house was spotless (which was not important to me but truly appreciated) but I smiled when all six water stations in our yard were filled. They took seriously my love for and the needs of the wildlife in our yard. Our plants were all in good condition as well. Sensing they were "next level" when I met them, I predicted they would want to leave a meal for us upon our return. I asked them not to but they found another way to bow out with class. They made a donation to a nonprofit I work with instead. This I learned from the lovely thank you note they left. I hope they will consider Charles and I friends because we certainly feel that way about them now. What special people. If you book them, treat them well because they are going to do that for you for sure.
I feel that Julia is simply the best person and pet sitter I could ask for. They really cared for our cat and gave him lots of attention. She is flexible, upbeat, reliable, considerate and great at communicating. I highly recommend Julia and Chris.
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least $20 per visit, $24/week per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
If I could give Laurel more stars, I'd give her 100!! My husband and I purchased our first German Shepherd puppy from this breeder. We were nervous to make such a big financial commitment to a breeder (or puppies from a breeder) we've never personally met. However, after 30 minutes of thorough details about the puppies she produces and the quality of their pedigree, there was an unexplainable peace that I felt after our conversation that prompted me to submit our deposit to hold our place in line. The most difficult part was the wait. We waited almost a year to finally have our precious puppy in our hands. THE WAIT IS WORTH IT. Our puppy was shipped from the Big Island to Oahu (crate and cargo fees an extra fee) and it was a smooth process to pick her up. Laurel (and her team? I assume there's a team. unless she's super woman, which honestly is very believable after learning how amazing she is at breeding these puppies) began crate training the puppies prior to going to their new homes. Our puppy, Cinnamon, was crate trained for 3 hours. Of course the first night was tough because she was acclimating to a new environment, but the subsequent nights were peaceful and quiet as she laid in her kennel through the night. Fast forward to today, Cinnamon is now a little over 4 months old and she is our super star. We enrolled her in puppy training classes at Petco. She already knew more than half of the commands they were teaching, but we wanted her to get training with distractions as well as the socialization aspect. We quickly learned that: 1, she was intelligent beyond her years, and 2, she played the best with all of the dogs. This includes both timid, and rough/bold puppies. She knew how to turn on and off the "calm". Our 6 year old Beagle/Chihuahua/Terrier mix, Pepper, has gotten moodier in the last 2 years. She does not like energetic puppies getting into her face all the time and has been known to "snap" at other dogs if they get too close (big or small). Cinnamon has been toughing things out and continues to pursue Pepper's heart, but with tenderness and patience. Today was a BIG leap in their relationship as we found them laying in the same kennel sleeping. (They did this all on their own!) Cinnamon has adapted around her and quickly became the "gentle giant." PLEASE keep in mind, we put a lot of time, energy, and resources into training Cinnamon. German Shepherds, although extremely intelligent, require a lot of time, discipline, and rewarding because without a good dog parent, you get uncontrollable children. And GSD are smart. They will learn how to "get around you," if you let them. I'm not just saying all of this to brag about our good girl (even though yes, she is the BEST in our eyes), but also to show that she was bred with extreme care and attention to detail. She makes both a great companion and protector. She is bold, but not aggressive. She is gentle, but not shy. If you are looking for the perfectly balanced German Shepherd Dog, look no further. Alpha K9 Kennels is your last stop (and should be only stop) for a reputable, responsible, and well-educated German Shepherd breeder.
I have kenneled my beloved boxer twice with Alpha K-9 Kennels. Love the staff and the owner . They love their job and take extremely good care of my baby when I am on vacation. I can always rest assured that she will be well taken care of and love while I am away. They also set my pictures and videos of her being walked and played with. Her last stay she had medicine that need to be applied twice daily and tat was taken care of as well . Thank you very much AlphaK-9 kennels,we will definitely be returning ❤️
I’m so happy Laurel was able to fit us in. She answered every phone call and every question we had. We got updates every so often of tippi which helped to ease the stress of leaving our lil baby while we were gone. I recommend alpha k-9 if you’re on the fence.
We boarded our little terrier for 6 nights. Beautiful grounds and peaceful location. We brought her travel kennel so she had a cozy den and favorite toys. The put it in the kennel on a raised pad. The kennel is safe and secure. Each dog has its own large kennel with a cement wall divider. They sent me a video and she looked so happy on her walk. Laurel and staff are so friendly and kind. I felt safe leaving my fur baby with them!
Earlier this year we lost our 13 years old Shepherd. After several months of an empty home, we decided to start our search for a new fur baby. This is when we discovered Alpha K-9 Kennels. Laurel was empathetic to our recent loss and was extremely helpful and knowledgeable in guiding us through the process of getting our new fur baby. Laurel and Aloha K-9 Kennels staff kept us abreast of the litter’s growth progress by posting pictures and videos. Laurel was patient with us as we chose our new puppy from the litter and took the time to talk with us and answer our questions. We now consider her a friend! This is our Harley. He is currently 4 months old. Healthy and full of energy. Our home is now full of happy puppy sounds. We highly recommend Alpha K-9 Kennels and will definitely be utilizing their boarding service in the future. Kenn Mitsunaga, Mavis Hirata & Harley
We just received our German Shepherd named Willow from Alpha K-9 Kennels. She does GREAT in her kennel and no accidents ever since she joined our Family. She is honestly So PERFECT!! We are Extremely Grateful and Proud of Her. Thank You So Much Again Laurel for All the Happiness that You've given us over the years with now our third Shepherd from You.
I started the journey to get Nui (a German Shepherd Puppy) from these amazing group of people back in June or July. They are on the Big Island but can ship anywhere, and they keep in touch with you every step of the way. I was having payment issues due to the pandemic and Laurel was sure to work with me on that, and I really appreciated that. The delivery process was so smooth, she ensured that I was notified when she shipped the puppy, and ensured that I got all the information I needed to pick him up. Any questions that’s I asked she was sure to get back with me at her earliest convenience (within the hour) and ensured that everything went smooth. I still ask her for tips on the puppy but all I can say is thank you, I would recommend this breeder to anyone!
We were warmly and pleasantly welcomed by the owner, Laurel, who is very knowledgeable in her animal breeds. We boarded two pets, a dog🐕🦺 and a cat 🐈⬛ for 7-days. She followed-up with text photos as they settled in their own kennel spaces. We're happy that she was readily available to accomodate our short-planned travel and grateful she is reasonable priced. Will we use her services again in the future? Absolutely!!! Mahalo...🌺🤙🏽
Our boy Leo attended the 14 day board and basic training at Alpha K-9 Kennels. We are so pleased with everything he's learned and the quality of care they provided. Laurel was so nice to communicate with and Eric, Amber, and Storm are fabulous trainers! Would definitely recommend their beautiful estate for boarding and/or training. THANK YOU!
Alpha K-9 Kennels is by far the best that i have experienced. They always take such good care of my german shepherd when I travel. i don't know what i would do without them.
I only spoke to the owner on the phone, but she was SO helpful and knowledgeable. After taking the time to talk to me about what she offers, she asked me about my dog and my situation. It turns out there is a dog daycare that is much closer to my job, and since I'm already commuting, she thought it might make more sense for me. How awesome is that? I wish her kennels made sense for me because I would have dropped my Lucy off there with no hesitations or worry, and will definitely recommend Hilo Kennels to anyone. I was just so impressed with her professionalism and how much she truly cares for the animals. Your dog will be home if you take it here, it's easy to see why they're successful.
It is so awesome to have a safe place for our 3 Chihuahuas to stay while we travel. David & Jenipher love our dogs almost as much as we do. Highly recommend Hilo Kennels!
We have had remarkable RESPONSIVE returning our call also answer my call when i check up on nibbles. RELIABLE with Hilo Kennel for our weekend from waikoloa. Nibbles would stay couple days at a time & very well taken cared of.
Our one and only kennel to use for overnight stay and day care! Dave is really attentive and love my dogs.
So kind and loving to our special needs dog Jeffie .
This kennel is animal loving with a great environment for pets.safe and clean. You may also have them baby sit you your beloved pets.
My dog has been having a wonderful time at Day Camp twice a week. The owners are so kind, caring and knowledgeable.
A happy dog, a happy mom. Real nice place, and clean. People are real nice. My Tilda gets all that energy out of her.
This place is amazing. My dog doesn’t even look back any longer after I drop him off. He knows that he is in for a good day of fun.
David and Jen are great people to watch your dog.
I have been a client of Kamuela Pet Care for 14 years and Lisa has always been a safe and trusted pet sitter. My dog Mochi loved staying there it was a second home to him. He was so excited to be dropped off there he would run into the house like a bullet and not look back. We have a new puppy now and plan to take our dog there when we travel again. Very safe.
Lisa at Kamuela Pet care is an absolute gem. She truly cares for all of her guest pets as her own. My dog has been visiting her for years and gets so excited every time we turn down her street.. he is ready to jump out of the car! As soon as my car door opens he runs to her front door and starts barking in excitement until she opens the door. The second the door opens he runs inside and starts playing with her other dogs! We don't have to worry one bit when he is with her. I don't know what we would do without her. We travel a ton for work and vacations which we would not be able to do without her!! Our boy is well fed.. we always bring his food and he gets to eat with the rest of the “pack”. We bring his bed for him to sleep in although sometimes I think he sneaks into bed with her and he husband who is also just amazing with the dogs! Our boy gets plenty of love and attention at his Auntie Lisas and when we pick him up he is sad to leave and all worn out from so much play time! Its a dream!! 🐶🐶
Lisa and her family have been dedicated sitters to my fur baby (which cane before my human baby) for years. Being my first (kid) it was imperative I felt I could trust Lisa and never once have I had an issue. Lisa's kind, loving, inclusive pack is an ideal setting for my little darlings, and I have never considered an alternate sitter. Lisa hasn't ever turned my request for service down and i always know my babies will be well fed, safe, and cozy. Kudos to Lisa and her entire family!!!!
Our pet sitter moved to the mainland after 10 years, and we were very concerned to find someone who could give our 11 year old French Bulldog the care she needs as a senior dog. We were thrilled to find Lisa and Kamuela Pet Care. Lisa is very focused on the dogs' needs and comfort and our RuthAnne was as happy and healthy as ever after her first stay with Lisa. We have already booked a long stay over the holidays and are so happy to have Lisa available to us in the future. Daniel and Christina
We would not trust anyone else with Annie than Lisa. I love that she cares for smaller dogs and has them indoors at night. My Annie is timid and not much of a socializer. Lisa picked up on that right away and takes extra care. Her yard is nicely landscaped and well gated allowing dogs to explore, play and do their business. Lisa will text photos to you by request which for us is every time we she sits for us. We are so glad we found Lisa for Annie.
Lisa is amazing!! Her experience and dedication shows. Whether I need her ahead of time, or last minute, she’s always available. The environment and care that she provides is unmatched. Thank you Lisa for taking care of our doggy whenever needed.
I am so grateful to Lisa and family~ my dog 🐶 loves going there! I feel so relieved to find such loving people to take care of my fur baby like their own family member: he has so much fun. …
I’m so happy to have connected with Kamuela Pet Care. My pups haven’t had much social exposure, I was worried, but they did great and I know it’s because of Lisa, she’s amazing!!! 🐾 Mahalo nui, Nancy, Oscar & Maya ☺️ …
I’ve been taking my dog Makana to Kamuela Pet Care since 2018. I love taking him there because he gets such excellent care, He gets so excited when we’re getting close to the house and when I pick him up he looks so content. What more do you need ❤️❤️
Great place to leave my dogs when going away. Have dropped them there a few times. Dogs are treated better there than at home😂 Received some pics of my 2 girls sleeping on the furniture there! They don’t even get to do that at home. Highly recommended. 2 🐾 up! …
Everyone at Pau Hana Pet Resort was wonderful! We had our puppy Rome in Doggy Daycare And he always came back happy and full of news what he did that day! They sent lots of pictures daily and kept me posted and how he was doing, will be using them from now on for our pets care!
Pau Hana has taken care of my four dogs many times and have done an outstanding job! I have a couple of dogs that are high energy, escape artists, and demanding. Pau Hana never ceases to amaze me at the hard work they put in to keep my pups excercised and well tended to. I have an immense amount of trust in Pau Hana because they deserve it and have earned that trust. Highly recommend.
Our American Bulldog Kobe for the first time stayed at a public sitter. We chose Pau Hana Pet Resort and we couldn't be more happy we chose them. We were able to enjoy our trip with no worries the staff took pictures assuring us our furry baby was doing okay. Kobe came home very happy and clean he got a nice fresh bath. We definitely will use Pau Hana Pet Resort again and we definitely will be referring them to others. Thank you Pau Hana Pet Resort.
We had the best experience at Pau Hana pet! Our dogs are not the easiest or smallest buddies to care for. Pau Hana pet worked with my family & dog’s personalities to ensure they felt loved & most importantly safe while we we on a two weeks vacation. I am sooo thankful for there support and business. We had peace of mind the entire trip with updates throughout the week. Highly recommended!!
I feel very secure that my pups are well taken care of at Pau Hana! Always eager to go there, and always eager to see me at the end of their stay. :-)
My large dogs have been coming here for years, and Max and Mya have always taken the best care of them. They always send pictures of my happy pups while I'm gone. Canʻt thank them enough for the piece of mind knowing the dogs are in good hands.
Pau Hana is an awesome dog kennel. We always board our dog here when we travel off island because they screen all doggie guests for behavior. Our girl comes back calm and in very healthy shape. We enjoy the pictures that PH sends us of our dog during the trip too! Highly recommend!
This is Bindi’s second stay at Pau Hana and I’m so pleased she has a safe and comfortable place to stay when we go off island. When she comes home, she is calm and not clingy, which tells me she felt comfortable. She also smells nice from her exit bath. I appreciate the update photos every few days so I can see her playing with the other dogs. I also really like that the owners live on site. It gives me the peace of mind of knowing they would be aware if something happened during the night.
Pau Hana Pet Resort in Hawaii is a true pet paradise! The facilities are stunning, with spacious enclosures and lush surroundings. The staff is caring and attentive, providing personalized care and regular updates. The range of amenities, including grooming and on-site veterinary care, is impressive. Plus, their commitment to sustainability is a bonus. I highly recommend Pau Hana Pet Resort for a top-notch boarding experience. 5 stars!
Lita was well cared for, clean and happy when picked up. The photo updates were greatly appreciated.
I had to go to mainland and boarded my 3 fur babies here. Was only supposed to be a month. Things happen I was delayed in returning home. Eric was absolutely amazing, he reassured me my boys would be taken care of till I could get back. I would definitely recommend him to anyone for any length of time. My dogs are all happy healthy and have been taken care. If I ever need to board my boys again I will only be taking them to pampered pooch. Mahalo again Eric.
Eric is awesome and was so attentive to my cat. I've used his services 3xs now and found them affordable, very clean and excellent. He has a large cat room with lots of ladders for them to enjoy and lots of large kennels for dogs in his facility. He also texted me pics and vids of my cat while I was away 😻😻😻 Highly recommend! …
Wow! So, I know there are not that many reviews for this business right now (5 at the time of this writing) but they are all 5-stars. I called to ask if they had openings for a certain time period. Eric asked me what time I would be dropping off. I responded that it didn't matter to me that day whenever in his open hours. Most people would have then just suggested a time that works for them since I was open to any time. Nope. What happened next was Eric, got real rude. Raised his voice saying, "It may not MATTER TO YOU but IT MATTERS TO ME! I'm not going to sit around here all day waiting for you!" It was then I realized that there was something wrong and there was no way I was going to leave my animals with someone that thought speaking to someone disrespectfully was normal. I also realized, he was telling me that he doesn't want to wait there with the animals he is supposed to be watching & caring for during his own business hours. I love my pets too much to ignore the warning signs. Even if he doesn't like people he should understand that pet owners love their pets and they are entrusting their pets to him. They need to feel they're safe with him. Would you leave your child with someone yelling on the phone? Just think about that! I'm not going to do less for my pets than I would my children. Hopefully, he learns from this and treats people with the same respect they show to him.
We love Pampered pooch pet hotel! Our three Dogs always looking forward and excited to stay in here. Eric is the best and my three dogs love him. I highly recommend Pampered pooch Pet Hotel! Thank You for taking good care of our fur babies.
Great place Wonderful energy and aloha spirit for your animal to be The service was kind and hospitable The facilities were neat and well structured Will gladly recommend pampered Pooch boarding
This business never ceases to amaze me. Quality service, spacious kennels, competitive prices, and caring staff. Every time I leave my dogs here when I return they are returned to me as happy as can be.
Pampered pouch has very reasonable prices. Everytime we're out of town, We drop off our dogs in here. We recommend This place!
So far only have experienced making a reservation and it was great. The price is really great too.
Clean and friendly Pet hotel. Eric is super nice and loves animals.
Very exceptional Veterinary
Tiphany was fantastic. She provided lots of feedback daily and took the cutest photos and we really felt good that someone was watching our for babies. She was really excellent and we really appreciate her. She did a great job I would recommend Hailii to anyone interested in going away and not knowing what would happen to their cats dogs etc. in fact I’m looking at scheduling another couple of days after the beginning of the year. Thanks Pet Gals
We have been using Shelley for almost 2 1/2 years now on a weekly basis to let our dogs out during the day while we are working and for overnights when we are on vacation. She is wonderful with our dogs and with us! She always lets us know how things are going. She was pet sitting our dogs during a brush fire last year that came close to the village and we were off island, and she had everything under control in case they needed to evacuate. She's marvelous! Now we always check to see if she's available BEFORE we make our vacation plans. I can't recommend her enough. Happy dog mom and happy dogs.🐾
We have had months of great experiences with Noreen and Bre! Noreen has been our main dog walker and Bre the backup so we know they will always show up. Noreen sends us great pics and shares the story of her visit, we love getting updates while we are at work. We highly recommend using this service for your fur babies
This was our first time using this service for our cats since moving to the Big Island. We received a text when the sitter arrived and a summary of the visit along with photos of our cats while they were playing with the sitter. We are now confident we can use this service for future visits and longer travel plans we have going forward, knowing our pets will be well looked after.
Shelley is amazing! We lost our 12 year old Rhodesian just before leaving for the mainland to see family. We knew we were leaving our other boy in good hands even though he missed his brother terribly. Shelley kept him close, made sure he ate and by weeks end he was playing again. It's also nice to come home to a clean house and surprise goodies - thanks Shelley!! Until next time.... :)
Wainoloa pet sitting is a great company to do pleasure with. They took care of my 2 dogs while I was on the mainland , they send pictures of the dogs and give updates on them too . I'd recommend them to look after your pets!
Love these gals!!! My dog is notorious for trying to run from anyone that’s not me but the team has been so great and understanding of our concerns. I love the pics they send of his walks too!!
Sam was awesome! You will be the first to call the next time pet sitting is needed!
It was a wonderful experience. I will definitely be doing it again on my next vacation. Thank you so much!
very nice to have this service! would love to use it so much more just a little to pricy
Susan from Pet Gal Kona took wonderful care of my multiple cat household. Her visits were on time and very thorough and she provided detailed reports about each visit and each kitty. I highly recommend her and will be using Pet Gal services in the future for all my pet sitting needs.
We had not used a dog walker before so we didn't know what to expect. Turns out it was a wonderful decision! Susan was exceptional! And our dog absolutely adored her. In fact, she would wait on the couch for her to come and they became best buds. Highly recommend!
Danielle was a terrific cat sitter! She communicated with us daily and provided pictures of our cat; as well as the water fountain level, cleaned cat litter, wet food set on the feeding station, and the dry food dispenser. She also cleaned everything up and retrieved our mail. I am extremely happy with the service she provided and will definitely be using her/Pet Gal in the future.
Pet Gal, especially Danielle, was fantastic! Danielle was able to get my shy little Lucy to come out of her shell. The reports and pictures made it much easier to be away, knowing she was in good hands. I will only use Pet Gal in the future.
Danielle was wonderful . . I loved the photos I got and my Kitty loved Danielle . . :)
I recently went on a mother/daughter trip. My husband cannot physically walk our Whippet/Border Collie mix, Thalia, so while I was gone she started misbehaving. I was desperate because she was taking her own walks and sneaking into the neighbors yard. Yikes! I knew she needed her walks and I contacted “The Pet Gal Kona” to see if they could help me. Mind you, I was not home, traveling on the Mainland but was able to easily contact them via their website. Wow, I got a response immediately! Susan was quickly set up the next day for a meet and greet. My Thalia is a bit on the shy side but Susan won her over on their daily walks. She gave me a follow up of their walks everyday. Wonderful that they show they care about us dog mamas ❤️ It was such a success that I will continue to use them. Mahalos to the team at The Pet Gal Kona!
Susan was kind enough to open our home for a day long drop off of our very elderly Peanut. Susan is very experienced and tremendously companionate. She sent us several updates through out the day (including videos) and we felt our Peanut was in the perfect hands. We have already booked Peanut for another stay this week. Thank you so much to Per Gal Kona and especially Susan.
I have been using The Pet Gal weekly for 3 months now, and I can absolutely vouch for their service. My main walker is Bre and she is just fantastic! I think my dog loves her walks with Bre more than with me. Bre gives her enough exercise and then reinforces my dog's training with healthy treats. I live the app they use to track what is going on during the walk and to add commentary and photos from the walk. It is very comforting to know that my dog is getting what she needs in my absence and that she enjoys it.
Super easy to get started and they have really efficient booking processes. Was able to book just a couple days before I went out of town. They fed my cat everyday, scooped his litter, cleaned any messes and really cared about my little guy, and the process was so easy. Will be using this service for all my future travel.
We were delighted with the help from PetGals. They were very very dependable, kept our dog happy, and provided a steady stream of email and photos to show how well things were going. Definitely recommend.
We have taken our fur-baby Pono here quite a few times in the past year or so. Sometimes for a couple days, sometimes a couple weeks. We know Pono is well taken care of by Eddie and Lily. He loves massages and he loves walking himself lol
We took a last minute trip and needed a place to board our border collie last minute. The Hilo Holiday Pet Hotel was recommended by a friend and didn't disappoint. They made room for him and we're very friendly. The only problem we had was our boy didn't want to leave when we got back! Great staff and great facilities. Will definitely use again.
Eddie and his staff was awesome. Anyone that knows me know I do not leave my dogs with just anyone but we were very confident that our babies were in good care. We visited a few boarding facilities before I decided here. Our babies stayed here for 5 days and even though in the beginning they had to get used too it . They loved running in his huge enclosed yard. I called everyday to check on them and I also received pictures ( which eased me). I will definitely use this place and I trust my babies in his care ! Thank you
This is a very caring place they treat my pet as their own family pet. He comes home clean n in the same way as I left him. They play n let the pets run in the yard. Eddie n his staff is like family to us we don’t worry when we live our zoney there. The best pet boarding hotel!!!!
I had planned a trip to the mainland for ten days and landed in the hospital in Nevada. Total days gone from my dog: 17. I felt so helpless and I missed my house dog, Snowflake so much! Snow is handicapped on his hind legs. He can use his hind legs but not for long. He will eventually drag them. Anyway, Uncle Eddie and Aunty Lilia took such good care of him at the kennel that when I picked him up, it was just another day to him. He looked happy, strong, independent and ready to run! Three times a day he would have the freedom to run and exercise his legs and he loved all that grassy areas. I made couple of videos for Snow and they would play it for him just so that he could see me and hear my voice. For sure I will take him there again if I ever need to travel. And the prices are so reasonable especially when it’s long stay. Thank you Eddie and Lilia! I’m so happy my daughter recommended your place! God bless!
My dog absolutely loves it here!! It takes a lot of worry off my mind when I have to leave my dog for a while knowing he is in good hands! Eddie takes great care of him, knows how to handle dogs, and my dog always has lots of fun during his stay. Highly recommended!!
Eddy was amazing with our dogs. He takes them out and plays with them and walks them. His place is so clean and beautiful , I dont think my pets wanted to come home at first. So nice knowing they ste safe and happy with him.
They left my dog unattended all day locked in a cage. She had urinated all over her bed. I had to have a neighbor go and pick my dog up early. No apology from the owner. No refund. Absolutely nothing. Be very cautious when booking here. Also they have fleas on their property. They say they have play time with them but never once took my dog out of the kennel. Be aware!!!! This place is not a 5 Star!!!!
We absolutely love Hilo Holiday Pet Hotel! Eddie is the best and takes such good care of our pups.
My wife and I take our two big pups here. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. I would recommend them to anyone.
Amy and Zeisja are the absolutely best! They are professional, friendly and super helpful. Callie absolutely loves them both and I appreciate them so much! I cannot recommend them enough. Simply the best!
Amy and her staff are so amazing. From little fur babies to BIG ones they do it all. Amy does her magic with my spoiled Shitsu. She looks so pretty when I pick her up. Thank you 😊 …
She does a greatb job Very good with animsls
I am so grateful to have found Su Lin Kennels! I was able to relax a bit knowing my cat was in good hands. They went above and beyond for a fair price. The service that they offer is priceless so they could have charged more. There are not enough stars! Good people! G and I thank you.
This is the only grooming place where the staff is consistent and friendly. My dog started biting other groomers (never happened before), so I found Su Lin Kennels. My dog has never attempted to even bite again! This is huge. I recommend to all! Best groomers on the island!!!!!!
You can depend on Su Lin kennels staff to take great care of all your pets! I highly recommend their services. Zeisja cared for and fed our cat, chickens & fish so we could enjoy our holiday. We are grateful.
Took my two dogs to trim their nails. Super fast and efficient. Friendly staff. I will definitely be back.
Very friendly and nice people. They do a great job, and my dogs love going here!
I highly recommend su lin kennels! They are friendly and professional I am so grateful that they are here in Hilo to take care of my dogs 🐕 …
My two huskies are a job and a half. Couldn't ask for better care or better grooming.
Missy Doggo spent a whole week at LoveBug Farm while we vacationed on the mainland. Rachel and Adam were incredibly kind and very communicative, sharing many pics and updates with me daily. When Missy wasn't too busy playing with other dogs or snoozing in the the shade, she was being snuggled by her newest human friends ❤ We couldn't be happier with the service and it's a relief to have another family kicking it with my dog versus being locked away in a kennel. LoveBug Farm all the way!!
My wife and I both work, LoveBug farm has become a second home for our pups. They actually fight to get out of the car to get to Rachel. The space and care are second to none. Reasonably priced, responsive we even get of few pics from there day. Absolutely the best experience. After a day at LoveBug they’re both ready for calm restful night.
LoveBug Farm did a great job helping care for my 3 dogs while we were on vacation. Rachel did a great job of communicating with us every day, even Sending us pics of our pups! LoveBug Farm dog care rates were affordable and her invoicing was simple to do via email. She made the whole process easy, so we could enjoy our time away without worrying about our dogs. Mahalo!!
LoveBug Farm is an exceptional place for your companion to be boarded. I've taken my Paka, a Chatahula/Pibull mix, on multiple occasions to LoveBug Farm. Rachel, the owner, made Paka feel welcomed and most importantly safe! My Paka loves going to LoveBug Farm! When he comes home, he feels at ease and ready to take the best sleep of his life. lol I only trust Rachel, at LoveBug Farm, to board Paka on the Big Island.
I was really nervous about ever being able to go on a trip and leaving my dog. But we heard about the Love Bug Farm. Rachel was amazing! We got to come check out their place before hand and have my dog meet her family and I got to ask all my questions. I felt so secure my whole trip getting pictures and check ins sent regularly. It felt more like a family friend was watching, hanging out and loving on our dog. We will definitely be using the Love Bug Farm Dog Oasis again!
Nothing short of AMAZING! She came to my home and got to know the dogs before we needed her. You could tell the dogs liked her right away (my pups are a little picky about who they like). Then she let us know when she was coming and sent pictures of the dogs - every day - many pictures. It made being away just a little easier. I will use her again, for dog sitting, as well as doggie daycare!
Rachel is absolutely amazing! Once I reached out to her, she responded within minutes, and after our initial conversation, I could tell that she would be a great fit. She came a day early to meet my herd and she connected with my babies right away. She’s warm, loving, responsible, and passionate about animals. I immediately felt like I could trust her. While I’ve been off island, she’s gone out of her way to keep me updated, send me pictures and my animals absolutely love her! I cannot recommend her enough! If you’re looking for someone reliable and who cares, Rachel is your lady!
Live Aloha Pet Sitters are absolutely wonderful! They treated our fur babies with love and special care. They sent us videos and/or pictures of our animals every day. Having our animals in their care really made traveling much less stressful and we will be using them every time we go out town. Highly recommended!
Excellent care for our feathered babies. They were happy at the end of their stay and showed no signs of stress. We plan on using Live Aloha Pet Services again soon.
They house sat and took care of our little Kumara. They did such a wonderful job and sent us photos everyday, which we so appreciated. Cannot recommend them enough! Really wonderful pet sitters 😊 Mahalo nui! …
