"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.

Pares is an experienced and quality sitter and we knew our cat Juniper (and a few plants) was well cared for. We received regular updates and photos which was really nice to have during our travels. While we missed Juniper, we could see that she enjoyed receiving cuddles and attention from Pares. Upon returning home, our flat was clean and tidy, and Juniper was very happy! Thank you for taking care of her!

Sharon and Milton were outstanding sitters and if I could give more than 5 stars I certainly would.
Reliable, communicative, helpful, self sufficient and tidy, they took great care of my home. More importantly my cats were lovingly cared for and extremely content when we returned.
I highly recommend Sharon and Milton without reservation and hope to have them return in the future.

Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.

Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.

Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.

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.

Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!

Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!

Kathy and Ron are the most accommodating sitters you will ever find. At my request they arrived a few days early and also made it clear they would be willing to extend their stay as needed. While at first they were a little uneasy about giving pills to our cat Sparky, they soon got the hang of it and did an excellent job caring for both cats even though the cats have very different schedules and needs. Kathy was great about keeping in touch with us and we knew they would be just fine for the several days when we were out of communication range. I would gladly invite Ron and Kathy back anytime and highly recommend them to you for your next getaway!

My dog had an awful experience here. I have never experienced such negligence leaving her anywhere. One of their excuses was that she is old but she lost 15 pounds over about five days and had poop on her butt when she was picked up. Never did I receive a phone call or text about her having diarrhea or not eating. She was shaking the whole way home when my sister picked her up and when I got her from my sister she wasn’t excited to see me. She was scared and thought she was in trouble which is very out of character and has never happened before with my high-energy and happy pup. Although I did get several follow-calls, their good standing doesn’t matter to me when the care could have been there all along. I’m very disappointed and she’s still recovering a few weeks later to gain her weight back. Do not bring your dog here or especially an older dog that cannot afford to have these experiences! They are not attuned to animals even though they’re probably nice people.
My dog's were full of life when I picked them up. Communication with the owners were easy and the area for them to run was awesome. Mahalo to Jim, and his team.
How do I know it’s a great place? My dogs jump out of the car immediately and then sleep for days after. And for a few days after if they are outside and we open the truck doors? They jump in
This is Buddy and Bailey third time to stay at Lucky D kennels. I am grateful there is such a place here in Kona to take your dogs. They don't have to be with a bunch of other dogs they have their own huge fence area to be with each other. My dog buddy isn't the most social dog so it is great that he doesn't have to be put with lots of other dogs. Jim, Megan and Dawn are great with my family - they are open to anything you might ask. I microwave chicken to add to the dog food and so does lucky D - if you ask them too...
My dogs LOVE Lucky D! All I have to say is "Wanna go to Lucky D?" and they get all excited! The private yards are plenty of space for them to run around and cruise. They have the company of other dogs, without the chance encounter of an agressive dog. Jim and Marie are the BEST! Your animals are your family, so when I'm away I know they are safe and having a ball! Mahalo for taking such great care of the Ladies!
They were a life saver when we needed a place for our dogs to stay in October 2022. I initially talked to the owner and he was very professional and friendly. I felt comfortable leaving my dogs in his care. Check in was good (rest of staff was just as friendly) and the facilities clean. When I picked my dogs up, they seemed well cared for. Thanks Lucky D!
My puppies 🐶 were well taken care of. Zippy the blk one. Izzy has Grey on her face Dozer is the big boy Or I also call them the Rat Pack
My poor puppy stayed for one night. I got a call an hour before pick up time asking if she came with a limp and when I said no the owner had lots of excuses as to why she was limping but no actual explanation. 7/27 update still no contact with owner
So happy to have found this place. My dog had never been boarded before, but she seemed to really like it here. Spotless facility. We’ll be back!
I've taken my dogs to Lucky D Kennels for years now. It's the only boarding facility I trust with my dogs while I'm away. The property and kennels are pristine. The experienced staff are absolutely wonderful and very friendly. They treat my dogs like family. My dogs recognize the staff and get excited to see them every time! I couldn't be any happier with their care and customer service. I highly recommend them!

Amazing business, it's clear everyone goes through extensive training. You get to meet the owner before your pet is approved to come here to make sure it's a good fit. We are so pleased to see how happy our gal is when we drop her off. Professional and polite service, and very well kept facilities. Their system is so organized as everyone else mentions. We are completely at ease having our dog at Paws whether it's a day or weeks!
I am a registered nurse and this facility is super friendly helpful and extremely patient as my client was disabled and had service dog beyond just training classes they do boarding day care I know from picking up the owners dog their outdoor setting is cooler than most ideal close to airport convenient and most importantly fun ! it just takes a moment to be kind.
New customer of Paws University. My pup seems to enjoy her time there but I am dissatisfied with a charge they added to my bill. It's not about the $35. It is the principal. A boarding pick up at 12pm (for those who are new) will be charged an extra $35. When I reserved the boarding in person, I informed the person that I'll be dropping off my pup at 3pm and picking her up next day at 3pm. I was not informed that there's an extra charge of $35 for post 12pm pick up. There wasn't an email reminder regarding pick up and drop off time. It's not stated clearly on their FAQ or website. But, when called, the manager said that it is on the boarding contract and on their site, way at the bottom of the page. While I do not mind the $35, this in principal is uncool.
I haven't boarded my dogs here yet but I will say, 5 stars all around for communication. I had filled out the application in 1 day and they got back to me instantly as well as setting up an eval quickly. Because of unforseen circumstances, I ended up having to cancel and AGAIN, they got back to me the same day. I appreciate this as communication is important so people can work other things out. Looking forward to doing business with PAWS in the future.
The Paws team and facility are exceptional! My work requires travel to the mainland monthly and our GS, Kila, always looks forward to seeing the employees and other dogs each time we arrive. I couldn't do my job without Paws and the terrific staff. Brett K
Great tech.She clipped my cats nails in a flash. My cat usually is really very hard to trim. Very good experience, great team of Pros. I highly recommend them to all.
Wonderful well-trained staff, great system and organization, grooming and facilities top notch. They also send video/photos and updates when our dogs are kennelled. Thank you
Recently moved to island and needed groomer who not only does good work but is good with my older (age 14) dogs. Really happy with Nancy who has years of experience. The setting is great and my dogs seemed really happy. It's great to have found a really good groomer!
I’ve taken my dachshund to several different groomers here in Kona and Paws University is by far the best. They have many different services. We’ve never done the day care but the two groomers Colleen & Nancy are amazing.They obviously care a great deal about their job and adore all the pups that come in to be serviced. It’s a wonderful establishment!
Our Shepinois pup Koda loves going to Paws! He has enjoyed daycare and boarding. The staff are super friendly as well.
