Doggy Day Care in Hilo

“I have been consistently impressed how happy my pup is when I pick her up after a day of fun at Natalie's. She is literally "played" out- who knew that was possible? I've told Natalie how impressed I am with how clean she is too. I can't keep her clean in my own yard. An incredible service for our rather remote location. Thank you so much Natalie! You do a great job managing my high energy girl!”

“Daisy had a great day with Blair! We would definitely have her there again. We popped over for a meet and greet a couple days before and Blair showed us around. It’s a great, simple and secure play space for dogs. We received several pictures over the day which was really nice of her. We will be back :)”

“Hands down 5 star experience from beginning to end. The booking process: Quick to respond, great communication. Was able to accommodate my pup on (very) short notice. Meeting Rachel: We had a few minutes to talk before drop off and Rachel has incredible energy, is very knowledgable and asks great questions to ensure the best experience for your dog. Doggy Day Care: Our pup had the privilege of spending the entire day with Rachel and her day care pack. No exaggeration, it was the best day of her entire LIFE. She is just shy of four months and is a big breed (Cane Corso) that needs to get a lot of energy our for several hours per day. Let's just say she is still taking long naps and it is the day after! We will definitely be making her day care a part of our weekly socialization routine and also use her services whenever we need someone we trust to take care of our furry family member. Cannot recommend her enough!”

“Cindy and her family took a great care of my puppy, Haru. Haru stayed at Cindy's house for 2 of my travel trips. Haru is a very picky eater, and Cindy was great with fulfilling Haru's picky tummy with fresh homemade dog food. They also groom Haru very well, that Haru maintains clean and neat. Haru is a big breed dog. Haru loves Cindy and her family. I received many of Haru's photos and videos during his stay, which was amazing because I missed my dog so much during travel. The best dog sitter ever!”

“I’m July of 2020 my family adopted an unhealthy pug (missy) from a neighbor who was no longer able to care for it, and Briana has been taking her for walks and watching her when we are gone. Missy was 47 pounds when we got her and had breathing issues, Brianna researched information about the breed and took her for short walks inside until she was able to handle a real walk. Shes still in the 30s but I’m very excited about the progress so far. Briana goes above and beyond what she is asked to do and we really appreciate her.”

“I've known Jody for a few years, and can only say that she is an exceptionally warm and caring person. She treats her guest pets as though they were her own and you can tell they are happy to see her every time they go over to visit. You'll be glad you choose Jody to take care of your pets! ”

About: Aloha! I live on an acre in Mountain View and have a 501(c)3 dog rescue. I have 3 of my own dogs, two cats, chicken and usually several rescues waiting to be fixed, fattened up and rehomed. The chickens are in an caged coup. Valentine is an 8 yr old hound mix and loves having friends over! Mele, a pit mix, is a little over a year and is the destroyer of all toys. Pocket, a golden retriever mix, is under a year and full of energy! All dogs are spoiled and sleep in our bed. The cats are more outdoor and run around doing their own thing, Tomi and Ghost. If your dog stays with us, he/she will receive tons of playtime, and various healthy treats if allowed. I boil carrots in chicken broth and freeze for a fun treat! Since I have a dog rescue I am well versed in various health conditions, medications, illnesses etc. I have a non-profit helping dogs, providing access to resources and helping foster and rehome dogs. All the money from boarding/sitting, any any donations Big Island Dogs- Resources & Rehoming (BID-R&R) receives are used to help with foster and rehoming expenses. We have outdoor kennel areas for the rescued and daily playtimes. My partner and I run a vehicle and moped rental company on the island. I’ve used Rover in the past for my dog and decided to become a sitter as well! My schedule is flexible and I’m always sure to block out dates for other things when pet sitting. I’ve had various animals my whole life and have pet-sat several times in the past for friends and family. Please contact me for any questions or to schedule a stay! My work is very flexible and I am home a lot with all my lovelies 🐶 Sometimes we all pile in the car for little field trips or just a fun car ride :) While I do not have a fenced yard. I do have plenty of kennels, enclosed play areas as well as my lanai which can be blocked off as well to keep animals close. My one dog is a runner so I am used to keeping an eye on the wanderers as well!

About: I have cared from dogs that need extensive exercise, like Dobermans, to dogs that need to be taken care of properly, such as English Bulldogs. I love animals and would like to assist you to know that your loved one is in good hands. I can follow any special instructions or even try to correct any problem behaviors your dog may have. I have helped owners with dogs that may have issues with aggression, trauma, or health issues. I live on a large property in Opihikao and I work from home. Your fur baby would be in good hands, living in paradise, and with full attention while you are away or need someone to care for your animal. I have one dog, a friendly Frenchie named Robin. She always welcomes new friends to her home even it’s for a few hours to a few weeks. Aloha 🤙🏼 I am currently a stay at home mom, so my time and attention will be given to your furbabies while they are in my care. I can accommodate any feeding schedule, I take them outside for frequent potty breaks if needed. My yard isn’t fenced, so I normally keep your furbaby on a leash when outside.

“Christy is an extremely caring and responsible person who I'd trust to take care of my pets without a second thought. Humans and animals love her. Full recommendations!”

“Michelle has taken care of my dog and I've gone on many walks with her. She understands dog behavior better than anyone I know; she knows how they think and anticipates how they will act. She provides a playful, loving environment for dogs and their safety is her top priority.”

“Kayla had Ch Chi the Chihuahua for a day stay and everything went perfectly. Chi Chi came home happy, tired from of a day of play and hungry, ready for her dinner. Thank you Kayla. You will have many more visits from Chi Chi in the future.”

“She is truly amazing with all types of dogs. Her passion and care shine through in every interaction. I couldn't be happier with the service they provide for my furry friend. Highly recommend!”

“Lyndsey is one of the only people I trust with my Milo. I’m sad she moved out of Louisiana and can’t help with my boy any longer. She is knowledgeable in every aspect of your dogs care and treats your dog as if he/she is her own. I highly recommend her :)”

“Catherine is a very reliable and conscientious dog sitter. She took care of our miniature Schnauzer for several weeks while we traveled, and she was mindful of the fact that we live in a cohousing community (a kind of intentional community) where there are some larger dogs that can be aggressive and that she needed to pay close attention when walking our dog. I felt full confidence that Shadow was in good hands. I would definitely hire her again.”

About: I have never not taken care of a dog. When I move to new places I usually adopt a dog. When I moved home from Tonga I brought my Tongan doggy. I have trained many puppies and love hosting doggie play dates. I currently work out of my house 3 days and in office 2 days. My office is a short drive away, so I am home frequently throughout the day. My dog hangs out on a big lanai while I’m gone. I have a crate of crating is what you desire. Dogs are allowed in our home as well if they are well-behaved.

About: We create a safe and loving environment for the dogs in our care. I help dogs to remember their highest calling.. to be loving, Companion dogs.

I work part -time during the week, so I only am gone from the house for 5 hours. The dogs have access to a fully fenced yard at all times. Our fur babies are our children... and routine is important for kids..so whatever routines you have at home we can create here. I treat your fur-kids with the same love and affection that I have for my Fur baby.

“Max watched our 4 month old puppy during a week of a hectic work schedule. He gave us a walk through of the day care where they have ample toys, dog houses and introduced our girl Anela to the other dogs there; we immediately felt comfortable leaving Anela in his hands. I'll definitely be trusting Max again with Anela knowing that she's being cared for, socialized, and fed”

Regular feeding, interactive play, walks, and grooming contribute to their well-being, creating a loving atmosphere at home or the client's place.

“Cimmaron is a true animal lover. My Senior Pup absolutely loves him because he knows how to be mindful and gentle with her. I've had her for 13 years now and there are very few people I trust to ensure her safety and best care. Cimmaron is absolutely one of those few people and for good reason.”
