    Whisper the tripawd and her new friend Nala.
    Terry O.

    I love Wags n Wings, and so do my dogs Whisper and Blue! Rya and her team are incredible, booking daycare or boarding is easy with their app, and my dogs start to whimper with excitement when we head down the driveway to get there! I finally can attend long conferences without stress, and I can't wait to travel! Whisper and Blue will be in great hands!

    Rya and her team took great care of Peanut while our family had to go to the mainland for a few days. We appreciated the updates and pictures. So happy we found this place. Highly recommend!

    It's all about trust . . . Rya and her staff took good care of my puppy while away on vacation. How many people take the time to send pics of your baby while you're away? I could tell that my puppy was happy being cared for by Wags 'n' Wings. I look forward to my next trip with no worrying about boarding my pet.

    "I cannot recommend Wags n Wings dog boarding enough! My baby dog, Mochi, had the best experience during her stay, and thanks to the incredible care provided by Rya, the owner. When Mochi wasn't feeling like eating her regular kibble, Rya went above and beyond by incorporating natural food toppers like salmon, chicken, etc. which Mochi absolutely loved - she left only two kibbles behind! Not only did Rya ensure that Mochi was well-fed and comfortable, but she also showered her with hugs and comfort, even when I didn't purchase additional services like belly rubs and food. The level of care and love shown to Mochi was truly remarkable. What sets Wags n Wings apart is their genuine compassion for animals and their willingness to accommodate whatever needs during their stay. I was also impressed by their updates with lots of photos and even sent me a video of my dog enjoying her food with toppers. Rya responds to texts quickly and the communication was amazing! They have reasonable pricing and the fact that they don't require pups to attend day care to be eligible for boarding shows that they love animals unconditionally. Their website is also wonderful as it's so easy to book a stay whether it's for boarding or day care. It's easy to navigate and you don't even have to call them for this. It's just like booking a hotel. If you're looking for a loving and trustworthy place to board your furry baby, look no further than Wags n Wings. Your pet will be in great hands with Rya and her team!"

    I'm so grateful to have found Rya and Team to watch my one-year-old pitbull lab mix, Nala. The crew at Wags 'n' Wings Hawaii are top-notch and truly care about the safety and happiness of each animal that comes into their care. I've brought Nala to them a little over nine months now after a bad experience at another daycare center, and she just has the best time with all of her friends. I've done daycare and boarding now, and each time Rya will send me photos and videos of Nala's day. In addition, they have water play Wednesday which is Nala's favorite day of the week (as you can tell in her photos!). Thank you so much for treating my fur-baby so well.

    I cannot thank Rya and her team at Wags n Wings enough for all their hard work in taking care of my dog when a last-minute trip came up. Rya welcomed him in for an evaluation, and once he passed, she made sure he was well looked after, kept him fed, safe, and made sure he got plenty of playtime with the other dogs. She sent me pictures throughout my trip whenever I checked in, which gave me so much peace of mind. I'm so grateful for the warmth and care they showed my dog - he was in the best hands! Thank you Rya and team!

    Rya, her family and staff are the best! Travelled for the first time in 5 years and was nervous about my 2 pandemic pups. My kids are a little socially awkward but they were very patient with my kids as they got used to day care before boarding and during their stay. She texted updates and pictures which put me at ease. Now my kids look forward to their visits with Aunty Rya!

    Kitak M.

    Thank you Rya and Vernon for going above and beyond! You took such good care of our furry families while we were away, most specially our Pia girl. Your pet-sitting skills are top-notch and highly recommended!

    Dog Boarding!

    There are no greater words than "Thank You"! Thank you Rya and Vernon for taking care of our little Pia! You guys are awesome and highly recommended!

    THE BEST KEPT SECRET DAYCARE AND BOARDING FOR SMALL DOGS!!!…read more I have to admit, I've been selfishly gatekeeping this place because it is hands down, THE BEST daycare and boarding on the island and I didn't want my baby's spot to be taken up...sorry Aunty Carly! I know a lot of my fellow VIPaws pet parents are also keeping this place on the hush for the same reason. However, since I'm moving soon, I had to do right by its wonderful owner, Carly, and give her the recognition she deserves. I've tried almost every daycare and boarding here, as my fur baby is our child and we want the very best for him. It was good to see what each place had to offer but let me tell you, you will not find another place that comes close to VIPaws. This is "the Punahou" of daycares. They specialize in only taking small dogs 25 lbs and under, which is perfect since our baby is fearful of larger dogs. The sign up process is organized and thorough, taking everything into account. We could tell she was on it and well prepared to care for him whenever we were away. This really put my mind at ease. All her policies/pricing are laid out and upfront so there's no surprises. If you don't read, that's on you. Their reservation based setup makes it easy to drop off/pick up. I've been to places without this and had to wait a while to pick up my dog since there was no reserved time. At VIPaws, I book a set time to drop off/pick up my pup so I can be on my way. I appreciate that! Carly does a tour of the setup on the first day and we were impressed by how clean and secure her home was. Multiple enclosures to ensure your dog's safety, lots of room to run and play, and comfy and clean with no smells at all. The energy there felt so calm and positive. All the pups looked so cute and happy! We love that they're very selective with the dogs they agree to take in, not letting any of the riff raff in. It's like an exclusive private school! She's strict but very loving and we appreciated that vs many other places where they let dogs run wild, pee everywhere, bark their heads off, etc. Not only can your dog pick up bad habits but it also really stressed my baby out. This was a welcomed change of environment. We could tell from the tour that this was going to be an amazing experience for our pup. VIPaws took excellent care of my baby every time he joined them for daycare/sleepovers. He can be a little nervous being away from us but it didn't take long for his nervous shakes to turn into tail wags. He would do excited tippy taps whenever we made the turn to her home, ecstatic about where he was about to go. He never did this for any of the other places we've tried! We ended up enrolling him in regular daycares because he would pout and get depressed when he didn't get to go. From a dog that had separation anxiety to this, there was no denying how much he loved it there. At VIPaws, we really felt that he was more than just a number. She took the time to really get to know him and knew things about his personality, likes/dislikes and quirks that even my own Mom didn't know about him. We could tell he truly felt comfortable, willing to show her his true self and thriving in the environment they create. The level of care and commitment they take for each dog is outstanding. In a short period of time, we could tell from his consistent daycare that he was not only loving his time there, but becoming a better behaved pup. Our baby learned manners and started coming home more balanced and well-behaved. Before VIPaws, he would get leash reactive on our neighborhood walks but since joining VIPaws, he got rid of that behavior right before our eyes...we were amazed! And she doesn't even charge for training, which in my opinion is a steal!! With everything you get, her prices are incredibly fair! We loved her insights shared via daily text message/pics. He always looked so happy! She is extremely knowledgeable and her advice helped us to be the best parents. I loved her honesty, letting us know the good with the bad. It was helpful to know areas we could improve on and got us excited when those improvements started coming to life. We would much rather have that than the generic "he did great" responses we got from several other places we've tried. With VIPaws, I could trust they'd tell me the truth on how my dog really was doing. VIPaws not only helped us care for our dog when we were away but also helped transform him into a confident, social, well balanced canine citizen. He has so many friends and we love seeing him live his best life! We've recommended them to our friends and they've raved about having the same experiences with their dogs. We are so grateful for all the time and attention she invested in him. This place is truly magical and such a gem. Trust me, VIPAWS IS THE BEST!!! Thank you Aunty Carly and Uncle Billy for all you did for us! We won't forget you!

    Hi Carly & Billy, I…read morewanted to thank you both for what you provide for all our fur babies. Cherish & Sasha are much better at home. I've been out sick from work for the last 2 days but still able to take them on morning walks. They seem more calm and are not aggressive whenever we pass or are approaching other dogs. In fact they don't react at all when other dogs start barking or lunging towards our direction. When we are home there is no tension like we used to have. I have to remind myself to get up and correct them when they're overly barking at the mailman or people walking past the house. The entire household, humans and animals seem to be more at peace and relaxed , it's very nice. Thank you again.

Here is my story: I usually have my cats under control at home or cat boarding at my veterinarian's location when I travel. but shucks! I wasn't lucky this past weekend. The other side of the coin is I was lucky because I found Pounce. A couple points 1. a walking distance to my office 2. pricing comparable to what my vet would charge 3. please environment for my felines 4. easy drop off easy pick up 5. daily follow up with pics of my felines from Pounce 6. comprehensive schedule of their stay; to and including when they use the bathroom... go figure! 7. they can/will administer meds if need be (one of my girls has asthma) My felines while happy to return home with me were treated with kindness and care. I will always go to Pounce from now on. Now then, the facility- clean, climate and air controlled facilities. I went to the Queen Street location and parking was easy. Right in front. You will need to call them when you get there. The doors are closed (for obvious reasons) and one of the gals will come out to get you. Same process on the way out! They have your fur babies all packed up and ready to go. Call them and they will wheel them out to your car!!! Sadly, I won't be boarding my felines at my vet any more as I'm so pleased with Pounce. Imagine! My own vet who cares for my fur babies want to charge you all sorts of things to board. Forget that; especially since my felines were not strangers to the vet clinic. But now! my felines are no longer strangers to Pounce. A definite must try if you have felines to board!
