Tourism and Leisure

The Big Island of Hawaii is diverse, beautiful, peaceful and safe. From beaches to 14,000 ft mountains with volcanoes and telescopes, to a charming small university town, the Big Island has it all. If you come, the volcano has been erupting every few weeks, so you’d probably get to see it! Unspoiled, old Hawaiian culture and feeling. Much aloha spirit! Bring your guidebook or use one of ours!

Laveno-Mombello, Italy - April 2026

This pet sitting experience was truly unique, as we felt more like locals than visitors. We were warmly welcomed by Carol and James who made us feel right at home and gave us a great introduction to the island! While they were away, we spent most of our time at the house, as the dogs needed to go out every 2 hours and prefer not to be left alone, but all of Carol’s animals are very sweet and easy to bond with. Carol’s home is in a peaceful neighborhood close to the coast where we enjoyed taking walks and taking in the beautiful scenery. Carol is one of the kindest people we have ever met and generously hosted us before and after their trip so that we could explore more of the island, and even allowed us to use their car to get around. This was our first trip to Hawaii and we are grateful to Carol to have had this experience!

Carol and James were very welcoming hosts and made all the house amenities available to us. They provided information about the area such as places to visit and concerts to attend. The animals were very easy to look after and we enjoyed the time we spent with them.
