“My pitty was very comfortable with Maggie and her sweet dog Willow while dog sitting in my house for 4 nights. I received daily photos and updates of their fun walks and snuggle time on the couch. We will definitely be using Maggie again in the future! She is a dog lover through and through. Plus, the house was spotless upon my return.”
“Danielle provided excellent care for our two pups and our kitty. She communicated effectively and paid great attention to pet care instructions. She was always on time and accountable. In addition to taking care of the pets, Danielle also looked after our home. We truly appreciate her care.”
“Amy was absolutely amazing! She took great care of our animals, sent lots of updates and photos, and was really nice throughout the entire process. Having Amy stay with our animals made our trip so much more enjoyable because we knew they were being looked after so well.”
“Stephanie was very responsive and took really good care of Indi. She gave us daily updates and left the house clean. Would book again and recommend her to friends and family.”
“I'm extremely pleased with the overall care that Erin provided my two kitties while I was away on vacation. Erin was super communicative throughout her stay and I really appreciated the pictures and updates. She provided medication administration for one of my cats twice a day and followed my instructions for both cats perfectly. She truly allowed me to enjoy my vacation without worrying about anything back home. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent sitter and look forward to booking her for future stays!”
About: I’ve had both cats and dogs as pets pretty much my entire life! I’m currently in school, but back home I have two dogs, Charlie and Ella! Additionally, I have been pet sitting on and off for the past 6 years with experience caring for cats and dogs of all sizes from french bulldogs up to golden retrievers! I'd love to get to know you and your fur baby and help out however I can! I’m currently in school and looking for a way to get my pet fix in since I no longer get to see my dogs everyday! I’m available on weekends and for check-ins during the week in the mornings, at lunch time, in the afternoons, and in the evenings. I will come to your home and care for your pet in the environment they feel the most safe and comfortable! I know every pet is different so whether they need feeding, walking, playtime, or just some cuddles, I'll be there!
“We are so grateful for Holly! She stayed at our house with our cat over the holiday. We received daily photos and updates, and we can tell he had a good time with her while we were gone. I definitely recommend Holly for any cat and house sitting needs!”
“Madeline stayed with my babies over night which I much appreciated it. She sent pictures daily of them. The 1st day with them she didn;t leave which made them feel secure. Felt like they were loved and taken care of since have 2 puppy mill moms and 3 cats which think Zoey maybe slept with her since the room she slept in Zoey has now claimed for her room.”
“Anabelle was amazing. When Biscuit met her during the meet and greet, he absolutely adored her. During her stay she kept me updated on biscuit with texts and photos. She even did some grooming for him. She took him on walks and even got him to run. I haven’t been able to get him to run in quite some time. Biscuit also does not eat and has severe separation anxiety when I’m gone. He ate and didn’t seem to have any issues while I was away for the week. I will definitely be using her again.”
“Monica helped me with a pretty short notice request. She followed instructions and really went above and beyond. She took my dog to a park and got him a pup cup and she didn’t have to do all that. Put me at ease while out of town knowing he was living his best life with Monica! I will absolutely be using Monica again when something comes up.”
“Zach was an excellent pet sitter! He provided daily photo updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. He made sure Rebel got a walk every day and took great care of all of our pets—Rebel, our dog, and Lilly and Bella, our cats. It was clear they were well cared for and comfortable while we were gone. We really appreciated his communication, reliability, and the care he showed our pets. We’d absolutely trust Zach to watch them again.”
About: I have been an animal lover since the day I was born. My mom’s nickname for me growing up was Snow White because I would make friends with the animals everywhere I go. I work full time as a receptionist at a veterinary clinic where I work with animals 5 days a week and find work on the side house and cat sitting for family, friends, and mutual. As the designated “responsible mom friend” amongst my peers I’m lucky enough to have been honored with the task of looking after multiple pets, homes, and apartments throughout the years taking care of peoples furry family members they sadly have to leave behind when out of town and the homes they live in just to keep a responsible eye on things while their owners are away. I’m a type A, an Aquarius and an ENFJ As mentioned I do work full time at a Vet clinic. I get 2 weekends and 2 weekdays off a month. My schedule is typically either 7:15am-4:30pm with a break from 12-1pm or 10:30am-7:30pm with a break from 1-2pm. I am willing stop by to perform pet care during my breaks at work depending on the distance. I get my schedule out a month in advance and typically schedule my personal (trips, obligations, appointments etc.) a month ahead of time as well I have experience administering medication, feeding, changing litter box, dog walking, and of course giving lots of love and affection and play time to pets.
About: I have two dogs now who I have personally trained from nothing. I also grew up with dogs so I have always been around dogs. I also was a patient care tech in the hospital and am currently enrolled in medical school. So I can provide quality care. I’m currently enrolled full time in school. Therefore, I would have to schedule around that but my school schedule tends to be fairly flexible. I should be able to meet the needs of most pets. My doggos are some of the most spoiled pets on the planet. I love to take them on walks or to the park and play fetch. We also love to just watch a good movie and spend some time together.
“Sydnee is great! She’s watched my dog a couple of times now, and I love knowing he’s in good hands. She’s great with remembering food and meds instructions, and she communicates regularly and gives fun updates.”
About: I’ve grown up around many animals (cats, dogs, bunnies, fish, hamsters, etc) and have gained much experience throughout the years. I am comfortable walking, feeding, playing and keeping your pet happy and safe while you’re away. I understand every pet is different so I am here to follow your instructions to give your pet the same love I give my own. I have a very flexible schedule at the moment. During the week I am able to come between the hours of 8:30am to 6:00pm. On the weekend I’m available between the hours of 11:00am to 4:00pm. I am happy to work with your pets routine and discuss specific scheduling needs in advance. When caring for your pet inside your home I will make sure to follow their normal routine and give them plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I will follow all directions for feeding, medication, and care provided. I’ll also treat your home with respect and keep you updated on your pets with messages and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and well cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dublin
Jen was outstanding with Penny. She came to meet her ahead of time to learn her habits. The stay went well, good communication and lots of pics. She is very calm and gentle. Jen stayed at my house and was the perfect guest giving Penny great attention. Highly recommend.
Thea was great! She spent four days with our 3.5 month old puppy and 17 yo cat and both were wonderfully cared for… and likely more spoiled with attention and cuddles than when we are home! She was great at communicating and sharing pictures/ updates and I never once had to worry about our pets while we were away. We came home to a clean house and washed sheets, to boot! We will definitely request Thea again if we need a pet sitter. Highly recommend!
Grace was an amazing sitter! This was our time leaving our dog at home while we traveled and she had us completely at ease! We received daily updates and pictures and our pup (and house) were in perfect condition. We would absolutely recommend her and will book again in the future.
We have a very anxious dog but after we were gone for a day I knew I didn’t have to worry. Olivia was always in touch with me and sent many pictures. She has just the right demeanor for anxious dogs and Phoebe took to her quickly. Giving meds and dealing with Phoebe’s different foods and odd schedule was not a problem for Olivia. The house was left clean and she even cleaned the bathroom! Would use her again when she’s not in school. We were gone 5 days and all was well when we came back. Thanks Olivia!
Hayley is an excellent dog sitter and I would definitely recommend her. She is especially qualified with her degrees in zoology and her training and work experience as a dog trainer at Petsmart. She watched my dog Birdie for 5 days, staying overnight and did a great job of caring for, giving meds to, walking, and even training my dog. Thanks Hayley.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dublin on Rover is $45.4 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,505 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dublin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Dublin walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Dublin maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Dublin choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 sitter 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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters 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 sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dublin. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
