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.

My dog had a medical emergency while in John’s care and I credit him with saving my pup’s life. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter in a pressure situation. He also communicated regularly during the stay, keeping me posted on how my pup was doing. Would recommend John to anyone who needs a sitter they can trust.
Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.
From her promptness to schedule a pre-sit call to her truly thorough tidying of our house, Stella was an amazing housesitter from start to finish!! She read all the info we put together ahead of time, and asked for clarification on just a few things which made us confident that the pup and the house were in good shape :) Stella was really gracious when we admitted to not having a coffee pot, and handling things calmly when there was an incident with street parking. Maybe most importantly though our dog Luke was calm when we came home. I think if future sitters are clear in their expectations around frequency of communication/photos and the dogs needs then Stella is the perfect person to exceed your expectations!
Sharon was an excellent sitter who I knew was taking great care of my two dogs while away. She walked them, was a clean guest, and sent regular pictures and updates. I’d recommend her to anyone.
Alexandria was by far our best sitter yet (and we've had excellent zeewoi sitters)! She was responsible, self sufficient and very responsive. She took the time to come meet our dog ahead of time and to run through the routine before our trip. She was communicative and sent great pics of her adventures with Rupee while we were away. She was extremely clean and followed our household routine. And to top it al off, she left us with a homemade vegetable soup for our jet lagged return home from Europe! Alexandria is a wonderful, kind and caring person that I am grateful to have met. I cannot thank you enough Alexandria!
Robert and Biljana are absolutely the best sitters you could ever get. We have used them several times already. They have always arrived at the stated date and time. They are eager to receive any and all instructions and will follow them as stated. They keep us informed almost every day on our dogs and send pictures regularly. They always go above and beyond their duties. Robert has fixed a few things around the house without being asked. They buy things for our dogs and have even trained our dogs on certain issues. They made a concerted effort to get to know the neighbors and talked up our dogs to all of them. They will be discreet with any and all information given. We really appreciated all their hard work and effort. They have certainly elevated the bar for the next sitters. Biljana took very good care of our plants and spoiled our dogs to excess. They now expect the same from us!! We will welcome them back anytime. Hiring them is a decision that will not be regretted.
Dede (Duha) is definitely one of our top house/pet sitters so far! The moment we met I knew she was the perfect fit for us. She is the most loving, caring and responsible sitter one could wish for! She send us regular updates of her daily adventures with Kenzie and Ginger and we could not have felt more at ease. I know for sure that our dog fell deeply in love with her and misses her much. We hope to invite Dede back into our home soon! Five stars all the way!!
Oh my Goodness! Where to begin. Linda was the perfect house sitter for us and the perfect pet sitter for Olivia! She is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. When we returned from out two week vacation all our plants were alive, the garden was alive, the birds and fish had been fed regularly, and the dog was alive and happy! What more can you ask for, right? Well with Linda you get all that and more. Updates as you request - even videos of her morning walks with Olivia. The house as spotless as we left it, maybe even better! Even the porches were clean! Linda is a genuine treasure and our recommendation would be 10 stars if there were that many!!
Melissa and Chris are amazing. We are very picky about our dog sitters, and we chose them because they have been doing this for a long time and track your wants and needs carefully and follow through with utmost care and integrity. They offered to come the day before we left to meet Winnie so that we could rest in that she would trust them and connect to them. Honestly, we would hire them as our only dog sitter all of the time if we could. I cannot thank them enough and say enough good things about them. They also took very good care of our house and plants.
Lori and Joe took great care of our two dogs and tow cats while we were gone. Our plans changed and we actually asked if they could come a day before we had originally planned to leave and they said no problem! They even stayed over on the night we got home so that we could meet them which was very nice! Lori was very good with communication before the house sit and also during the time they were here. She let us they had arrived safely and then sent us a short text or pictures every day of the animals. The house looked cleaner than when we left it when we got home! Lori and Joe were great house sitters and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!

Erica and her staff are amazing. I 100% trust her to take care of my Doberman. She will send pics daily and you can rest assured your pet is getting all the love, attention, and socialization they deserve! Thank you Erica for taking care of Indy for the past 3 years. We are both so much better for all the love you've given.❤️
Erica is amazing! She welcomed my 4 dogs (on short notice) with love and attention! The dog kennels are larger than others and well maintained. She sends daily pictures with updates. All my dogs just loved her and her staff. This is the only boarding place that i will use here on the island.
To sum up Erica's service: Exceptional! She went above and beyond all we could hope for! She lovingly watched our rabbit Lucy and cat Loki for 15 days. She sent so many pictures and spoiled them like they were her own. From day one of when I contacted her, she was always super prompt and answered my questions thoroughly. I could tell right away that she loved animals and that our fur babies would be in excellent care. Not a day went by where I didn't get at least 10 pictures of them looking well taken care of. I highly recommend her service and we will definitely be repeat customers!
Nozomi, pictured, had a wonderful time . We were given constant updates and pictures of both our Samoyed and ginger cat. Would definitely recommend. Thank you!
Great place to board your dog. We have used Erica to overnight our dog over the last 3 years. She is great with all the animals and has an intricate dog run where she can adjust the runs to the size of the dog. Her application is well thought out. It includes temperament of you dog, medical issues and verification of required shots and kennel medication. We have never had a problem there and our dog always comes home to rests from all the fun and running around with the other dogs. The dogs are paired up with like size and temperament and she closely watches them interact before introducing other dogs.
Best dog boarding that I have ever used. Such a wonderful person and team that take care of your dogs. They send picture updates to you so you can see them enjoying themselves while you are away.
Erica and her staff are the best and my dog is so happy there🐾🐶👍 …
Best place on the island to bring my dogs. I don't even consider other places now.
Erica and her team are wonderful. Kind and very caring!!
The service was great. The daily photos were a bonus.
I realize that there’s not enough reviews left for this place so I want to put in my 2 cents. I’ve left my GSD to stay at Tradewinds Pet Suites 3 times now and they’ve taken excellent care of him. I’m paranoid of taking him to any other dog boarding place because most places here let all the dogs out at once, like a dog park, and you never know what could happen. At Tradewinds they’ll spend one-on-one time with your pup and let them have as much fun as they can. My boy especially loves one-on-one time more than roaming with other dogs. I highly recommend them. They have military discounts too!
This is a great place to board your dogs (and horses I think). Our dog always is happy and healthy at the end of a trip, they have a good size run and they give the dogs some extra yard time every day.
Sandy is amazing. My dog has some pretty bad anxiety issues that he is on medication for, and I trusted that tradewinds would be able to handle him better than any other kennel. As feared, he did not like when I didn't come back to pick him up on day two. Sandy and Courtney went the extra mile to deal with him and give him special attention. I felt at ease while I was away, knowing he was in capable hands, and was proven right when I got back to pick him up! Mahalo nui loa Sandy!!
I am so last minute with my bookings all the time, and Sandy and her team CONTINUE to find ways to accommodate Koa and me. I cannot speak highly enough of their facilities, their professionals, and most importantly the amount of caring they have for animals. I cannot even count how many times I have use Tradewinds and I will always go back to them for all my boarding needs. Even if you're in Hawaii Kai, the drive is worth the doggie experience. Thank you for everything that you do and everything that you are Tradewinds. TJ
Lexie and Rothko totally enjoyed themselves. I loved seeing them almost every day on Facebook. I wouldn't be able to travel if my dogs were unhappy with their accommodations! They came home totally relaxed. Tradewinds, we will be back!
Kind staff and very professional
Excellent dog boarding. Sandy Van is AWESOME!
Wonderful home away from home for you pets.
Very Good Dog boarding!
Mahalo nui for the great review. We love Lucy!
Highly recommend having your fur babies boarded here! We’ve used their services throughout my fiancé’s medical program and they’ve gone above and beyond with Aloha to make sure our dog is safe & happy! Thank you AAB!
We just went to pick up our dogs and saw that one of them has a huge and bad looking cut on her eyelid that wasn't treated at all. We had no news about this accident and nobody knows how happened, it's a mistery. Both of our dogs came super dirty, their beds/blankets had pee and dirt all over, and their food had ants. Also, the main contact person (Lynn) wasn't answering her phone for a while. And Terry said to send them the bill after the veterinarian because they didn't take our dog to one. I just wanted a place that takes care of our dogs while we were on vacation and this is not a good one!
I brought my 3 dogs there last year. Barbara was was the best. We were on a trip for 3 week's and she sent us several pictures of the dogs playing and in there kennel. I also was able to visit the place before I boarded my dog's. Barbara and the rest of the staff were very friendly. My babies were well taken care of. I plan on Boarding them there while on future trips.
I have two Belgian Malinois and when I tried to explain to the staff that this breed is different, they were already very knowledgeable on the bread. The staff was extremely Friendly and kind. They will go out of their way to make your furry friends comfortable. Very affordable and flexible. I called last minute and was able to drop my fogs of the same day. The knowledgeable staff made me feel so comfortable leaving my mals there for a week.
My wife and I went on a trip to the mainland for a week. We arranged for pick up and delivery of our dogs. Both pick up and delivery were on time, and the dogs were in great health. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We have two rescues, and like most they have some issues. The staff handled them very well. We are pleased with the care provided. It is nice to find a place that welcomes bully breeds and knows how to handle them. I would recommend them to anyone.
The staff was very accommodating and pleasant. It is certainly not a luxury pet facility, nor does it come with luxury boarding prices. but it offers the essentials, a caring staff, a room with air conditioned kennels, roaming/play time,pick up and delivery were handled in an efficient and timely manner. We have two bully breed rescues and like most have issues. The staff knew how to handle those issues without a hitch and returned the dogs to us in great condition.
My family has gone to them for every time we've needed someone to watch my dog, and they care for him as much as we do. However, this last experience really solidified how I feel. They made sure he was ready for our big move with another company's help, made sure he had enough food for the month he was there, and kept me up to date on how he was doing. With him in their care, I didn't feel the need to worry- I knew he was taken care of. Thank you all for being there every time for us, we appreciate it tremendously!
I worked with terry and lyn to pick up my two dogs from the airport before we arrived in Hawaii. They picked them up, sent us pictures that they were healthy and happy after their flight, stayed in constant communication with us, and delivered them to our hotel when we arrived five or so days later. I can’t express what a relief it was that they took such good care of my dogs. I was really worried about sending them over without us but it was great! Would recommend to any military family sending pets over unaccompanied!! Edited a year later to add I used terry and lyn to care for my pets for a 3 month duration when I needed to leave hawaii. They were beyond helpful, I am so thankful for them taking care of me and my pets.
Our dog fractured her leg in two places while boarding here for a week. She couldn't even stand when we picked her up at the end of the stay and had to bring her straight to the pet hospital. The owners offered to pay for our dog's hospital bills but when we sent them the bill, they never followed through.
If you want your pets to be in happy healthy hands while on vacation DO NOT board your pets here, the amount of money “saved” is far from worth it. We were recently going to be boarding our two dogs while on vacation for Christmas and New Years, upon arrival an elderly man/staff named Terry whom would be taking care of my two pups let us in and I was immediately taken aback when one of my dogs started barking in a very scared manner which was very unlike him..so immediately I was uneasy, the small shed like where they housed small dogs is were we were first taken and there were HUNDREDS of flies due to turf instead of grass where pups supposedly “play” but also potty. Immediately I wanted to see where my pups would be sleeping and when asked if that could be shown to us Terry quickly responded “NO!” No??? I have never not been able to see where my pets would be staying while boarding, his excuse was “They will be in the back near quarantine” I was puzzled by the term “quarantine” and when asked about it Terry stated, “That’s where the dogs are with broken legs, blind etc.” Why would you have dogs with broken limbs here???!! You are not a hospital or a clinic. What really got me was when Terry finally showed me the type of kennel they would be staying in located in the front facility in the small shed-like building. There were at least 15-20 dogs jam packed in there one of which I knew personally from a boarding facility I worked for on island..his demeanor was so off you could tell he was very stressed by the shaking and constant panting he was doing along with multiple other dogs looking and acting in the same manner. There was no space between the kennels and some of them didn’t even have enclosed tops so you couldn’t actually properly separate mediate any possible cage fighting, this was all truly made me feel like I was in a scary movie. We immediately ran for the hills. Luckily we had a back up plan because if not I’m not sure how my dogs would have been when we returned home from vacation.
