Pet Sitters in Waikapu, HI

Danita

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Danita and the way she cared for our pets and home. We were away for over a month and nervous about leaving our three pets (2 cats and an energetic 2 year old lab mix) in the care of someone we didn’t know. Danita’s level of professionalism, attention to detail and kind nature allowed us to have a care free vacation, feeling confident that the pets were in capable, loving hands. She exceeded our expectations in every way. Right from the start Danita asked great questions, making sure to get lots of detail on each pet's nature and personality. While we were away, she sent daily updates with photos and comments that made it clear to us she was engaged and paying attention to each pet’s needs. We truly felt she adored them and gave them the attention we hoped that someone would. Beyond the pets, it is clear that Danita is a responsible and capable person, handling little issues around the house with maturity and ease. We came home to a house that was sparkling clean, pets that were happy (and sad to see her go!) and felt like we’d made a new friend. We highly recommend Danita and feel she could handle any situation with ease.

Hilary

We were very fortunate to meet GiGi! Traveling, knowing that our pets are being taken care and loved is a must. Since she entered the house we were able to tell how caring and loving she is. Both dogs feel safe with her and she is even trying healing therapy for our rescue girl; she keeps us up to date with videos and pictures of her improvement as well as other pictures of Meringue playing and been loved by her kids. The house was very clean and organized which is a must for us after coming back exhausted from long overnight flights. We think that we are very lucky to have met her since she will be helping us on our next two trips. We definitely recommend GiGi to other members that need help with the house or pets.

Maria Belen

Maria Belen (Belu) was an absolutely wonderful house and pet sitter and I would have her back any time. She was responsive from the beginning, respectful of our home and pets and immediately received well by even our most skeptical, shy kitty. Belu was communicative throughout the time we were away, sending some pics of our cats and ensuring us that all was well. We got home to a very clean and tidy house and the cats were all happy. I would happily recommend Belu to anyone.

Amira

Amira took really good care of our dog and house. She was a great communicator and sent us videos and pictures of Topaz periodically which were much appreciated. Would most certainly love to host Amira again!

Megan Mira

Megan Mira was an exceptional sitter. From the moment we met I knew our cats would be loved and well taken care of. Our home was very clean. She went beyond what we expected and even made sure we had clean sheets to crawl into. I would definitely recommend her and hope she’ll come back to visit some day.

Brocklin & Brooklyn

It was great to have Brooke and Brock sit for our dogs, Shadow and Duke. We met with them a couple weeks before the stay and they were all in to care for our aging Lab (14 years old) and our energetic youngster. We had an early departure, so Brooke and Brock came the night before to continue care for our dogs. There was a possibility that our return was going to be delayed and they set our minds at ease by being able to cover what we needed. Brooke and Brock are a great team. Brooke was all over the meds and day to day activities. They both gave the dogs a lot of love. Brock, being a dog trainer, worked with Duke during their stay. Brooke and Brock are great passionate people. They will be going back to Lahaina shortly to live and get their dog training facility up and running. We look forward to visiting them. Brooke and Brock .... Aloha and Mahalo!!!!!

January

This was a great experience with January. She was easy to contact and kept me updated before, during and after her sit. ?My cat Lilly was happy and not needy when I got back. That shows me she got pleanty of attention. My house was clean and the laundry was done! I did not expect her to wash the sheets and towels before she left. I will definately see if January is available for my next sit.

Mihana & Seann

Mihana was great! Responded promptly to a last minute stay request and agreed to come by for a meet & greet since this was our first time using the app and we were a bit nervous. She was kind, organized with a wonderful calm demeanor. We returned to a spotless home and three happy dogs and she even laundered the bedding without us asking. Would highly recommend Mihana for all your sitting needs.

Todd & Kim

Todd and Kim are lovely people and we are so grateful they applied to come and sit for us. Their depth of knowledge in canine care and behaviors, world traveling, and previous house sitting was all wrapped up in sparkling personalities. We (at the risk of finding them already booked for our next trip) highly recommend them.

Lauren & Mark

Lauren and Mark are pros. Great communication, easy confidence with the pets and wonderful humans to boot. We’d love to have them back any time. Thank you guys!

Maria

Maria went above and beyond, helping us when our utility let us know there was a slow water leak (old running toilet), in addition to taking wonderful care of our cat and sending helpful updates.

Debra

Debra settled in very quickly, she arrived 2 days before we left which was great as we could introduce her to the dogs and we could get to know her. This allowed us to go away knowing that the dogs and our house were in good hands. When we returned the house was clean and tidy and the dogs chilled.

Terri

This sit hit it out of the park for us in every way. Terri and Sherry are two of the best people we've ever sat for - warm, considerate, organized, and very communicative. We are happy to call them friends. 

Their beautiful home and garden provide a peaceful, comfortable retreat with views of nearby Mt. Diablo. Clayton offers all the charm of a small town yet is close to big city amenities. We especially enjoyed the many walking/biking paths and trails here. 

The star of the sit, of course, is Teddy, a furry ambassador of joy who brings smiles to everyone he meets. We loved taking him for walks and meeting other people and dogs along the way. We highly recommend this sit and have happily agreed to return.
