About: Raised my 4yo doodle from 8 weeks. Both my husband and I are WFH. As a routine we walk our dog 5 times a day. We are patient, calm and reliable and cherish dogs as they are part of the family. I always communicate well via text and photos to give you a peach of mind while away from home. Both my husband and I are both working from home. Flexible schedule to accommodate yours. Can walk your doggy as often as needed and play with them anytime. We prefer to arrange drop off and pick up times between 7:30am and 7:30pm due to our little kid’s schedule. Appreciate your understanding! Safety is our top priority. We have a safe area for dogs to hang out and pay great attention to the dogs as we are WFH. Dogs will stay with my wonderful, friendly Momo who is a calm and gentle doodle. He is a neutered male with boarding experience before. We have a big backyard with fence so no risk for loss. I only allow one dog boarding at once so your dog will get all the attention it deserves.

About: As the proud owner of a 4-year-old Belgian Malinois, I’ve developed a deep love and understanding of animal care. He’s my first dog, but my passion for watching over and nurturing animals has been lifelong. I believe exercise is key to a happy, healthy pet. I regularly take my dog on long walks and would ensure the same for your furry friend. Whether it’s playing, petting, or just spending quality time, I genuinely enjoy creating moments that bring joy to animals. Cleanliness and grooming are also priorities for me. I love brushing my dog and ensuring his coat stays healthy while keeping our home fur-free. You can trust that your pet’s hygiene will always be well cared for in my hands. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I would treat them as if they were my own. I have a Belgian Malinois which is one of the most active and energetic dog breads. I care for him daily from multiple walks, to feeding, brushing, and playing with him. I prioritize his well-being all while working a full time job. I work from 7 to 5 so we are up and at it by 4 AM. Then I come home to take care of my Maui. For clients, my availability will be from Monday to Sunday. I do not work from home but I work very close to my office so I could drop by in the afternoon to take your fur baby out to pee and stretch. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine while respecting your home. Here’s how I approach pet care: 1. Follow Your Instructions I adhere to the feeding schedules, dietary requirements, exercise routines, and any specific instructions you provide. Maintaining consistency is key to keeping pets comfortable and stress-free. 2. Keep Their Routine Pets thrive on routine, so I ensure walks, playtime, and naps happen as expected. I also take the time to engage with them in ways they enjoy, such as games or cuddling. 3. Maintain Hygiene I clean up after the pet, ensuring their spaces (e.g., feeding area, litter box, bedding) are always neat. If they need grooming, like brushing or wiping paws, I handle it with care. 4. Provide Plenty of Exercise and Attention Whether it’s walks, playtime in the yard, or indoor activities, I make sure they get the physical activity and mental stimulation they need to stay happy and healthy. 5. Ensure Safety I keep a close eye on them to prevent accidents, secure any areas they should avoid, and monitor for signs of illness or distress. 6. Respect Your Home I leave your home as I found it, keeping spaces clean and secure. I treat it with the utmost respect, ensuring you feel comfortable and at ease while away. Ultimately, my goal is to provide the love, care, and attention your pet deserves while maintaining the trust and comfort of their home environment.

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life, but I have also worked in animal welfare facilities caring for animals of all types (cats, dogs, rabbits, ferrets, mice, chinchillas) I"m on the board of an animal welfare organization, I have served as a cat adoption counselor and I am starting my own blog about the best ways to care for pets. The main reason I'm called the pet whisperer is because I talk in their language and animals just follow me. They sense that I think like they do vs how a human would think. I'm a big fan of all animals. I'm currently working part time so have plenty of time to commit for pet care. I also am studying pet massage therapy so my pets get lots of petting I have a large home with 3 levels and fenced in backyard. I have a second fenced area within the backyard. I have two cats within the house but there's plenty of room to keep them separated if necessary.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I've been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Our 5 children have grown and living on their own, so I currently have my sweet 2 dogs, Chica & Luna, who keep life fun, active, and full of love. In addition to my experience with pets, I've taught preschool and first grade, where safety, patience, and attentive care were always top priorities. I offer dog walks, drop-in visits, house sitting (no overnights), and can comfortably administer oral medications when needed. I truly enjoy caring for pets of all personalities, whether they're social and energetic, calm and relaxed, or a little nervous and shy. With a gentle demeanor and a strong understanding of animal body language, I take the time to build trust and help every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. During my first year of retirement, pet care fits naturally into my flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care all day (no overnights). I provide attentive care for pets in their own home, helping maintain their normal routine, comfort, and security. I can assist with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, oral medications, and keeping pets happy and relaxed while their owners are away.

About: I’ve spent 24 years around animals, including dogs and cats of my own, so I know that trusting someone with your dog or your house key is a big deal. I don’t take it lightly. I’m the kind of sitter who wants to know your dog’s whole personality—their favorite route, the treat that instantly gets their attention, the weird way they ask for dinner, and the little routines that make them feel safe. Tell me everything. The more details, the better. Whether your pup needs a good long walk, help sticking to a routine, gentle senior care, or just company while you’re out, I’ll meet them where they are. I pay attention to body language, keep safety front and center, and send photos and updates so you’re never left guessing how they’re doing. At the end of the day, I want the same thing you do: a happy, relaxed dog and a sitter you feel good about booking again Busy workday or a trip coming up? Send me the dates and times you need help. We’ll go over your pet’s routine and confirm what fits before booking, so you have one less thing to sort out. I’m organized and flexible, and I can build visits around your pet’s schedule rather than expecting them to adjust to mine—whether that means morning walks, midday potty breaks, evening feedings, or weekend coverage. Before a booking, I like to confirm the exact routine so there are no surprises. I’ll be clear about my availability, arrive on time, and communicate promptly if anything changes. Leaving your pet with someone new can feel like a big deal. I want you to feel comfortable telling me every little detail, including the instructions you worry are “too much.” I’m happy to have them. I’ll stick to their routine, double-check doors and gates, keep your space tidy, and send photos and updates. If your pet needs a little time to warm up, we’ll take it at their pace. You’re always welcome to check in. In your home, I’ll follow your house rules, keep fresh water available, and closely follow feeding, medication, and exercise instructions. I’m mindful of anything that could stress your pet—loud noises, unfamiliar people, other animals, or changes to their normal routine. For dogs, I use a secure leash and pay attention to their body language around other dogs, people, traffic, and unfamiliar situations. For cats, I let them set the pace: I won’t force interaction, and I’ll make sure their litter box, food, water, and favorite hiding spots are taken care of. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep you updated, and reach out right away if I notice anything unusual.

About: Hi! I’m Danny, and I’ve been around animals for most of my life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, pet sitting, feeding, playtime, companionship, and basic grooming care like brushing and keeping pets clean. Some of the activities I enjoy doing with pets include walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch, tug-of-war, indoor games, light training reinforcement, cuddle time, and helping pets stay active and engaged throughout the day. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends, neighbors, and family members over the years, including energetic puppies, senior dogs, and shy pets that need extra comfort and reassurance. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and making sure pets get plenty of affection and supervision. I currently work as a PT aide Monday through Friday, and my workplace is only about 5 minutes away from my home. Because of that, I’m available most evenings and weekends, and I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, care, and bathroom breaks throughout the day when needed. I’m dependable, patient, and responsive, and I always try to make pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. I also enjoy sending updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident that their furry family members are happy and well cared for. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and comforting environment for every pet I care for, and I’d love the opportunity to meet and care for your pets! My schedule is flexible, which gives me plenty of time to focus on pet care and spend quality time with your pets. I’m available on most weekends for walks, drop-ins, boarding, or house sitting. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so I’ll make sure your pet gets lots of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I always follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special instructions. I keep pets safe, supervised, and comfortable at all times. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is being well cared for and getting lots of love and attention.

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since childhood. Growing up we always had dogs and cats. As an adult I currently have a beautiful senior cat, a senior yorkie, 2 pugs, and a chihuahua. I have a huge heart and am big into animal rescue. I'm very good at dispensing medication to both cats and dogs. I have even become skilled at giving subcutaneous fluids to cats. When I watch your fur baby you can be sure that I will go above and beyond to make them feel loved while you are away. I send regular check ins and photos so you can have peace of mind when you leave your dog in my care. Right now pet care is my full time job. I have animals of my own so during the day I will of course be checking in on them as well. I sit small dogs, puppies or kittens only in my home. Any other small animals are negotiable. Please keep in mind I have animals of my own so if your pet is not good around other animals they can’t come here for boarding or day care.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats throughout my whole life. Friends and family pick me to take care of their fur babies when they are gone. I love meeting new animals and even though no one likes doing it, yes i clean up after the fur babies and don’t just act like i didn’t see it. I am currently a student at the community college las positas. I take morning classes monday-thursday and have a job at a restaurant in livermore usually from 4-9 daily. No matter the circumstances, i may seem like a busy individual. But I am always having down time and since I can’t have an animal of my own (in my apartment) I would love to spend time with your fur babies and take care of them as convenient to you! Since I do live in an apartment, I can’t take your fur babies home with me. But I am more than happy to stay as long as needed and play with them and get their energy out before you get home. As well as feeding them and/or bathing them.

About: I’ve taken care of pets the last handful of years. I would do anything for a dog or cat while their parents are away or just needing a simple walk around the neighborhood. I pay attention to detail. I give great cuddles and belly rubs, too! Right now, I am pretty flexible. I would work with what you need at the right times your pet would need feeding, walking or simply checking in on them. I will make sure safety is first. I would treat your pet as you do as much as I can! I want your pet to feel loved.

Please let me know if your pet is comfortable around other dogs. If they're not, I can easily leave my dog at home while I focus on your pet's needs.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Dublin

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Dublin is $28 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $48 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 14,067 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Dublin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Dublin. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Dublin after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dublin. On Rover:

  • 84% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
