About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was just 6 years old—whether it was my own pup or a neighbor’s. That early experience taught me patience, responsibility, and how to understand different personalities in dogs. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with puppies who need consistency and training, as well as senior dogs who need a little extra gentleness and care. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy every time we’re together. As a full-time student, I’ve built my schedule to make plenty of room for pet care. I’m available on weekdays after 5 PM, which is perfect for evening walks or playtime. Fridays I’m completely free in both the morning and evening, and I’m totally available on weekends. This flexibility allows me to give your pets the time, energy, and attention they deserve—whether it’s a long walk, extra cuddles, or simply keeping them company. Whether I’m in my home or yours, your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to understand each dog’s unique needs, routines, and personality so they feel secure and cared for. I always double-check doors, leashes, and gates to ensure pets stay safe. You can trust that I’ll treat your pet with the same care and respect as I do my own.
About: I've taken care of all types of dogs (as well as cats!) for over 7 years. I love walking dogs, taking care of them, playing with them, and just being around them in general. I understand the importance of routine with pets, and enjoy making them as comfortable and happy as possible while their owner is away. I have an hybrid school schedule and have plenty of time to care for your pet and give them all the attention they deserve. I am happy to plan my day around any specialized needs for your pet. I can provide care in your home so you don’t have to worry about transporting your pet and all their items! This also ensures your pet feels comfortable in a familiar space.
“All instructions were followed. I tried not to ask to much, just wanted them let out and food put down. When we spoke, Zehavit seemed very caring and conscientious, she was all of the above. I will use her on a regular basis.”
“Kim was phenomenal taking care of our furbaby while we were away! She was super attentive, sent updates and pictures, and went above and beyond to bring in packages and our trash bins! We will definitely have her back to house sit Bobo!! Thank you Kim for taking care of him like your own pet! ?”
About: I've owned dogs and cats since I was ten. I currently have three dogs (one of whom is a senior dog) and two cats. I love walking any dogs and playing in the backyard with them. I've been a volunteer at Last Chance Ranch in Quakertown for the past two years, during which I work with dogs who are happy and wiggly and those who are hesitant, sick or scared. I'm also a mom of two students, an honor student entering college and an honor athlete entering her junior year (so I know how to raise kids too!! :-) ) I look forward to taking care of your babies like I take care of my own. I'm a high school teacher, who can be free to come to your house as of 3pm for walks or to take care of your babies. I am available most weekends. I will follow any requests of the owners, but definitely enjoy a good walk with puppies (all dogs are puppies in my world). Cuddles and talks with your animal are essential to helping them feel safe while mom and dad are away. Your babies and home will be in good hands with me.
About: I have a vast history of experience with dogs including puppies, dogs with medical needs, behavioral needs, seniors, and large dogs. I've volunteered at the SPCA as a dog walker. In recent months have fostered a few puppies for several weeks at a time. Fostering included potty training, sleep training, and leash training. Currently working from home two days a week and home most weekends to spend with a pet. I work as a full-time mental health therapist and would be able to tend to dogs in between sessions. My Monday schedule is usually 10am-3pm and my Friday schedule is usually 10am-1pm both from home. Weekends are for the pets! I currently live in a 4 bedroom home in Bucks County with my Mom and Dad. My parents are not typically home during the day and I would always be present with your pet while in my care. Our backyard has a lead with about 30ft to roam. The neighborhood has sidewalks with grass to walk on if too hot and walking distance to several parks.
About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life. As a child, wife, mom and teacher, I have taken care of and loved many animals over the years. I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, frogs, turtles, birds, fish. As an educator, I have open availability during the summer. I'd love to show your pet some extra TLC during your workday to ease your mind! I have all of my security clearances as an educator. I hope this helps provide you with peace of mind when I come to take care of your pet.
“We had reached out to Kirstin last minute and she could not have been nicer or more accommodating plus she was great with our silly boy, Mosley. She sent us updates and pictures each time she dropped in for a visit. Her communication regarding Mo was just what we needed to feel comfortable, that he was being well taken care of while we were away. Additionally, Kirstin was quick to respond to all of our messages (before, during and after our trip). We highly recommend Kirstins’ pet sitting services and look forward to booking with her again in the near future! Thanks Kirstin!🐾”
“Hailey was awesome with our shy dog and very-not-shy cat. Our pup has separation anxiety so it was really nice to be able to leave the house without worrying. Hailey was very communicative and we'd absolutely book with her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs big and small since I was 10. I have grown up my whole life with two dogs at all times so I’ve gotten a good bearing on how to treat and work with dogs. Neighbors and friends call me whenever they need dog sitters because they see how well I am with their dogs. I work Monday through Friday from 8 AM–5 PM, but I’m available for morning walks before work or evening walks after work! On weekends, I have a flexible schedule and can walk your pup anytime throughout the day. 🐾💕 I treat every dog the same whether they are 1 or 15, with the love and care they deserve. I believe that all dogs should be treated well and not neglected for their needs. If you are just starting to train your puppy, I want to help on that journey to make life easy on yall. But if your dog is sick and needs to be walked slower or given medications, I have plenty of experience with that as well! Being a well rounded human caring for animals is so important to me which is why I try to life out that statement.
About: Leaving a pet in a kennel can be one of the most stressful situations for a pet owner - including myself. This prompted me to take my love of animals, combined with a large property -and a desire for change in my work life as an ICU nurse to begin a "small batch" boarding business. "Small" in numbers of dogs per stay, but not in size, we can accommodate the big breeds as well. ***Many clients and return clients book privately and my availability will be kept up to date on this site*** I've been a "mom" to two Dobermans and have cared for many dogs both at my house along with traditional dog sitting. I love all dogs and am very comfortable with large working breeds. Dogs that need medical care, (injections and medications are welcome as long as they have detailed instructions) are not an issue for me. Your dog is cared for as if it is our family dog - which means having fun, feeling safe, & loved - all with ample room to play - without the confines of a traditional kennel. I work full time from home, so your dog will have plenty of attention and lots of time outdoors to play. I follow your current routine with feedings to keep consistency and reduce any stress - my goal is for your dog to feel this is their "2nd home". My property (aka "Everygreen Hill") is large (2 acres) with slightly over 1 acre fenced. Your pup will have ample room to run in the fenced area, while the comfort of being inside (central AC for summer). A structured walk is an option, and that can be done on my property . Weather permitting, doggie pool, & sprinkler are available for play. Ideally, dogs are crate-trained for sleep time, naps, and breaks to ensure their safety. All dogs must not show aggression or have a history of aggression with other dogs to be accepted into our home and have proof of rabies vaccinations. Pups are permitted on the couch/furniture if they are allowed at their own home. Photos and videos are sent so you can see your pup while you are away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and even exotic animals for years. I have a dog of my own, as well as a cat and I have always held a special place in my heart for animals. I will treat your pet like my own and make sure they receive the best care! I’d be honored to care for your pet and give them all the love, belly rubs, and walks they need! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pet! My schedule is pretty wide open, and even if you live a further distance I’m willing to make the drive no problem! I always make sure to care for pets specific needs and do things that make them happy. Whether it’s belly rubs, play time, walks, or some free hugs, I’m always happy to care for your pet the way I care for my own!
“Lynn was amazing with our two cats. She took great care of them, and sent me daily updates with pictures of them playing. I am so grateful and will definitely book with her again!”
About: Let’s be real: your dog deserves a break that’s actually fun! I’m here to make sure they get exactly that. I work at a veterinary hospital so I’m the person who naturally notices the "little things," but when I’m walking your pup, it’s all about the good stuff—fresh air, tail wags, and a serious amount of attention!!! I’ll keep you in the loop with plenty of cute photo updates so you don’t feel like you’re missing out. This isn't just a job for me; I converse, love and care for each dog or cat as my own. I work night shift at a veterinary hospital which gives me a flexible schedule for morning, afternoon and evening feeds, walks and weekend adventures! Whether your pup needs a quick potty break or a stroll to burn off energy, I’m here to make sure they get exactly what they need while you’re busy. Getting out with your dog is the best part of my day! Since I work in a veterinary environment, safety is second nature to me. I’m the person who double-checks the leash, keeps a sharp eye on surroundings, and makes sure the water bowl is always fresh. I treat your home with respect and your pet like they’re my own. Expect plenty of cute photo updates so you can see exactly how much fun we're having!
About: Hello, My name is Jayne and I would love to help you! I’ve had cats and had a childhood dog my whole life. I’ve done everything from the walks to the litter clean up and I love doing it for the animals that do so much for us. Would love to service all your needs! I work the typical 9-5 but would love to talk care of your animal companions beforehand or in the weekend. I am flexible on the weekend. I can feed, provide water, clean litter, walks, and overall companionship in your home or mine. Would love to provide a safe environment with any animal.
“This was our first time using Rover, and we feel so lucky to have found Kelly! She was kind enough to accept our last-minute request, and from the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease. Our dogs absolutely loved her, and it was clear that they were in great hands. Kelly took wonderful care of them and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well looked after. We would definitely recommend Kelly to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter. We’ll certainly be reaching out to her again in the future!”
“I really appreciate Maya’s patience with Oreo. She took her time with the overly excited dog and built a relationship with her, and I definitely book her again! I’m glad Oreo has a new friend!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Dublin is $14 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $30 per visit. On Rover, sitters 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 October 2026, there are 8,765 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Dublin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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!
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.

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 sitter.
