About: I’ve had animals my entire life and have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra care. I also have experience with cats and other critters, and I currently have all three myself, so I understand their unique needs and behaviors. I’ve worked alongside professional dog trainers, which has helped me build strong handling skills and better understand training, behavior, and safety. In addition, I’ve volunteered with animal shelters, giving me experience with a wide variety of temperaments and situations. I treat every pet like my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I’m currently transitioning into trade school Friday–Sunday, which means I have plenty of time during the week to dedicate to your pets! I’m available Monday through Thursday for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with your furry (or scaly!) family members. I love building routines with pets and making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away! For the comfort and safety of all pets, I provide care in your home rather than mine. I’m more than happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their own environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or just giving extra love and attention, I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care as my own.

Eliana was absolutely wonderful! She gave me complete confidence in leaving my rescue pup in her capable hands. She was great with her communication in setting up the appointments and also updating how my pup was doing with each walk. I would recommend her to anyone who needs support while they’re away!

About: when I was young I had a dog, he was accompanied me for a few years till someday he passed away, since then I didn't want to have a dog as I was so sad. Last year my second dog just passed away because of illness while he brought me another unforgettable time. After a year now my enthusiasm of taking care dogs restarts even I don’t have a dog with me. My wife and I work at home, so we have plenty of time. I tends to walk dog twice a day, sometimes I will go hiking with dogs. I have a fenced back yard, and dogs always sleep on sofa or in the cage, they will enjoy a fenced back yard with enough safety. I have experience of taking care of many dogs in the past years, and get experience of feeding and giving medicines to him, also I know some health issues about general senior dogs. the most important thing for a sitter is to have passion of loving dogs, all dogs are easily to handle if they feel love from you.

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 lived with animals my whole life; at both houses we had at least 3 cats and 3 dogs at a time with the occasional hamster, rat, snake, or rabbit. I’ve adopted most of my pets from shelters, and have helped raised two litters (one was kittens, the other was puppies). Having a wide variety of animals introduced me to a wide array of personality types from friendly and cuddly to moody or shy. These experiences have taught me to have an abundance of patience and understanding, and to be able to adapt to individual needs. The animals I’ve watched/raised/trained have been all different breeds and sizes; from a 3 pound chihuahua to a 85 pound German/Pitt mix. I’ve taken care of older dogs, who need extra care, as well as sick dogs and/or dogs with preexisting conditions who require medications once, twice, or three times a day. Not only have I helped with my animals, but I’ve watched other peoples houses/pets as well. I’m pretty much a homebody, so aside from a couple hours each day, I’m available and flexible and can hangout with your pets for as long as you need. I’m a great communicator too, so if an issue were to arise, I will reach out right away because your pet’s health and well-being is my top priority. I’m currently self-employed, so my schedule is open and flexible. I do prefer a couple of days of notice in advanced, unless it’s an emergency. I will take care of your pet however you need me to. When it comes your pets health and well-being, I know you know what’s best, and I will never disrespect your wants or needs. If you need me to house sit, I will respect your property. I’m very neat, organized, and clean (slightly OCD) so I would never leave a mess.

I received information each day about how Ruby was and what she was up to as well as lots of great pictures of her in action. I would highly recommend Jenarae for all your pet sitting needs.

About: Since 2023, I’ve volunteered at a high-risk animal shelter, working with animals who needed extra care, patience, and love to feel safe. I also have two pets of my own, so I understand how much they mean to you! In addition to my own pets, I’ve cared for many friends’ and family members’ animals, including dogs, cats, and even a chicken ! so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their unique needs. I also have a lot of experience working with pets that are anxious and fearful. I always treat your pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well-behaved while in my care. And don’t worry, I welcome all the loving, protective “helicopter pet parents” out there, because I’m one too! My schedule is very flexible, and I’m happy to work around what’s best for you and your pets. I’m generally available any day of the week, and mornings work especially well for me. I can also help out on weekends! I always prioritize the safety and well-being of every pet in my care. I make sure the environment is clean, secure, and free of hazards, whether that means checking gates and doors, keeping toxic items out of reach, or creating a calm space for shy pets. Don’t be afraid to ask for pictures every hour because I do that too! In your home, I follow your instructions carefully to maintain your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. If caring for pets in my home, I will always provide a safe and cozy space where they can relax, play, and feel loved. My goal is to earn your trust and help your pets feel as happy and safe as they do with you!

About: I have always been in the childcare and education field, and the last few years has brought me to the world of dog sitting! Dogs tend to become very comfortable with me right away! I wake up early for walks, and your pup will receive about 3 per day, including lots of ball and toy tosses and tons of love and attention! I live in a condo with a spacious living room for plenty of play and to keep crates and beds. Walks are always leashed. Pups are allowed on the couch and in bed. Snuggles are very important!

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while in my care. What sets me apart is my experience with basic dog training and leash training. I know the importance of reinforcing good habits during walks, using positive encouragement, consistency, and patience. Whether your pup is working on loose-leash walking, learning manners, or simply needs extra attention and exercise, I'm happy to help maintain the routines you've worked hard to establish. I'm dependable, attentive, and treat every dog like they're my own. You can expect plenty of love, playtime, exercise, and photo updates so you always know how your furry family member is doing. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, playing fetch, or just having a companion nearby, I'm committed to providing a fun, safe, and caring experience. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. I can't wait to meet you and your pup! 🐶❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate quality time and attention to each pet in my care. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so dog walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to each day. For cats, I'm happy to provide companionship, feeding, litter box care, and check-ins that fit their individual needs and routines. Because of my flexibility, I'm available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I make it a priority to follow their regular schedule as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and make sure every pet receives the time, exercise, and affection they deserve. When I watch any pets at someone else’s home I make sure the animals are comfortable with me before the owner leaves. Then I’m constantly monitoring the animals and the environment they’re in, so nothing harmful happens to the animals.

About: As a devoted pet owner and active foster volunteer, caring for animals is a huge part of my daily life. I currently care for my own dog, two male cats and regularly foster kittens, giving me hands-on experience with pets of different ages, personalities, and needs. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, and young kittens. I'm attentive to details, reliable, and committed to providing regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind during your time away. I treat every pet like they're part of my own family and look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! Pets are a big part of my daily routine. I start each day by feeding my resident dog and foster kittens, cleaning litter boxes, refreshing water bowls, and making sure everyone gets the attention they need. Throughout the day, I incorporate walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection into my schedule. Because I foster kittens, I'm experienced in maintaining consistent feeding schedules, monitoring behavior and health, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for animals of all ages. Caring for pets isn't something I fit into my routine—it's already a regular part of my life and something I genuinely enjoy every day. When caring for pets, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. For house sitting and drop-in visits, I follow each pet's feeding schedule, exercise needs, medication instructions (if applicable), and any other care preferences provided by the owner. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, enrichment, and affection while their family is away. During dog walks, I prioritize safety and tailor the walk to the dog's energy level and needs. For drop-in visits, I ensure pets have fresh water, are fed, have potty breaks, and get quality one-on-one interaction. As a pet owner and foster volunteer, I understand the importance of trust and communication. I provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Dublin

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Dublin on Rover is $27.75 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 14,131 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 your Dublin. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Dublin.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

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