House Sitting in Dublin

About: I’ve had 2 dogs of my own and worked in a dog daycare/boarding facility. I’ve given medication, given potty breaks, broken up fights, fed at designated feeding times, and given baths and nail trims if needed! I currently go to school to become a veterinary technician I am available to pet sit any day of the week from 11am-6:30pm. For pet walking I’m available any day from 11am-4:30pm where the last walk will be occurring at 4:30! I will clean up any mess made by me and your pup while playing. I’ll be able to feed, give medication, and play with your dog based on your schedule that you set.

“Mary did a great job! We have already booked her again.”

About: *Certified in Pet First Aid!* Hi, I'm Shelby! I've been fortunate enough to have a lifelong passion for taking care of pets. Growing up in a household filled with furry friends, I quickly developed a deep connection with animals that has only grown stronger over the years. My journey into professional pet care began when I had the opportunity to work at my sister's boarding facility and groom shop. It was an incredible experience that allowed me to expand my knowledge and skills in caring for animals. Working alongside my sister, who is an expert in the field, I gained valuable hands-on experience in every aspect of pet care—from feeding and bathing to handling medications and special needs. Recently, I completed a certification course in Intro to Dog Agility and First Aid for Pets, which deepened my understanding of canine behavior, safety, and health. This training allows me to respond quickly and appropriately in case of an emergency and provide basic agility-style enrichment during visits—great for active pups who need mental and physical stimulation! I’m confident working with pets of all ages and energy levels, including senior dogs and those with special care needs. Whether it's a leisurely walk, playtime, or just some loving companionship, I always tailor my care to suit each pet’s unique personality. I’m available for early mornings, evenings, and weekends. Flexible with short notice and committed to consistent, reliable care that fits around most work and school schedules! My primary goal is to ensure that the pets under my supervision have an enjoyable and fulfilling experience. For dogs, I believe that regular exercise is essential for a dog's physical and mental well-being. That's why I take them on long, invigorating walks, giving them the chance to explore their surroundings, stretch their legs, and get the exercise they need to stay happy and healthy. Beyond the physical aspect, I also pay close attention to each pets individual needs. I understand that every pet has their own personality, preferences, and limitations. Some may require extra care and attention, such as older pets with mobility issues or young animals who are still learning the ropes. I make it a point to tailor my approach to meet their unique requirements, ensuring their comfort and safety at all times.

“A friend recommended Tilly, and she was so so sweet and my boy was immediately super comfortable with her! She sent me so many pictures though out the weekend and was really good at communicating and caring for him!! :)”

“Phoenix was great with my dog. Very responsible and communicative. Kept me updated and gave my dog so much love and attention. I highly recommend her.”

About: I am a undergrad student at Virginia Tech who is applying to Veterinary School. I have 5 years of pet sitting experience and have worked at a Vet clinic for that same amount of time. I love to spend my time with large animals and volunteering at Local Shelters. I prioritize building a trusting relationship with my clients and their furry friends. I currently work part time so I’m available almost every day. I organize my schedule to make time for your furry companions regardless of the time of day. I can adapt to your requests easily and on short notice. I’m mobile and am happy to come to you and the place that your pet feels most comfortable.

“Caroline did an amazing job watching our pup while we were away for the day on short notice! She did a great job of sending photos and updates throughout the day! I would definitely recommend Caroline to anyone looking for a sitter! We will definitely be reaching out again in the future!”

“I was amazed at how quickly Chauncey (our rescue dachsshnd) warmed up the Nancye. She has this innate ability to know a dog and his needs, placing that as top priority. She texted with pictures often, I left home for a much needed few days away without a worry at all. HIGHLY recommend and feel sure we'll want Nancye to pet/house sit for us again--SOON!”

Betty K.

“Gracie is wonderful! She is very knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors, and made sure our dogs had a good time while we were away. She sent lots of pictures so we would know they were in good hands and we’ll definitely have her back again.”

About: I’ve grown a loving and interested heart towards dogs but have a love for lots of different pets! I’m great at caring for more than cats and dogs:) I am currently working part time as a nanny/ babysitter and am looking for more ways to spend time with all kinds of pets :) All pets I’ve had throughout my life have all freely roamed when appropriate and have been in a crate when needed:) Depending on the owners preferences I will do what they are comfortable with for their pets!

About: I have experience with jobs as temporary as just walking and feeding to staying with pets for a weeks at a time. Experience with mostly larger breed dogs. I work full time during the week at an insurance company and am best available during the weekend's due to my schedule and allocated time for the gym. I’m very attentive to the needs and wants of any animal in my care dude to my compassion and love I have for all creatures.

“Abigail was a life saver. Not only did she take good care of my dog while I was away all week, but when my flight was delayed she checked on my dog to make sure he was okay until I got home. I will definitely be using her to watch my dog again in the future.”

“Another great visit! Honey came to her residence and was so relaxed by the end she was sleeping at the foot of her couch like she lived there! Thank you Madison!”

“I had a good experience with Natasha watching my 2 dogs in my home over the Thanksgiving holiday. She texted me every day, always before I texted her, to update me and let me know they were ok and things were going well. She left the house very clean and the dogs looked great and seemed happy when I got home!”

About: I've had many years of experience between keeping my own animals as well as house sitting or just dropping in to check on your pets! I currently have a full time job but I am looking to quit so I can focus on doing nails and going to school part time for that but I need a side hustle! I live in a school bus so I don't really have tons of room to take care of pets there but I am more than willing to come to their homes, I'd prefer that the pet is comfortable as possible and I cannot stay overnight in a home but I can stay as long as needed to make sure the care requirements are met

About: I have spent a year taking care of twelve horses by myself and really love animals. I will give your dogs love and affection and be sure to follow the guidelines the owner sets for me. I am currently in school to become a Licensed Veterinary Technician which is also called a Veterinary Nurse. I also work as a Veterinary Assistant Full time. I love my job and I am very excited to see where my career takes me. I am 23 years old. Animals are a huge part of my life and believe their care should be top priority. I am very excited to be doing this and would love to take care of your pets! I believe your pets deserve the best care. I work Full-time as a Veterinary Assistant at a clinic in Christiansburg. A typical day for me is work from 8-5ish, and I would be able to give your pets the upmost care before and after I go to work. For puppies and special needs pets we can discuss options depending on what your normal schedule looks like for them and how we can keep it as close to normal as possible while you’re away. I strive to make your animals time as stress free as possible! I work at a vet clinic, so I am very experienced with pets of all temperaments. I am able to medicate pets if needed during the course of our time together.

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I currently have a chocolate lab who I took through two rounds of AKC good citizen training. I love working with animals & bringing out the best in them. I currently work remotely so I am available throughout the week if your house has a strong wi-fi connection that will allow me to work from your place while petsitting. Otherwise I am available for drop-ins and walks throughout the day. I have a dog that lives in my house & sleeps in my bed. We have a fenced in yard but she gets 3 walks & some fetch training every day. Additionally, we often go to Pandapas to hike the trails.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and various animals, I bring a deep understanding of their needs. In high school I took many animal care classes that have educated me on what's best for your furry friend, setting me apart from normal sitters. I’ve worked in an animal hospital, gaining valuable skills in handling all types of pets, from puppies to senior dogs. I have experience administering medications to dogs and working with many dogs at once. I have grown up having dogs as pets and know that this task takes high responsibility and flexibility. I’m dedicated to offering personalized, compassionate care that ensures your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away. As a student at Virginia Tech, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your pet care needs. I’m usually free on weekends and during weekdays when my classes don’t overlap, so you can count on me to provide reliable care when it’s most convenient for you. I can work around my class schedule during the school year to provide quality care for your pet. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment for your pets. When caring for your pet in your home, on walks, or occasional potty breaks I will follow your guidelines closely to maintain routines that your pets are accustomed to and feel comfortable with. My goal is to build trust with both you and your pet by providing a caring, respectful experience where safety and love is always my top priority.

About: So I have always been a loner in life. I'm that person that wants to take in the strays. I always say the animals choose me. In today's society no one has time to sit home all day and play with their pets. Thats what im here for. I can potty train, Crate train, and leash train. I love to go on walks and send lots of updates. So pet sitting is my only thing going on at the moment. I accept last minute emergencies, or plan ahead visits. I can keep them all day or however long you need me to. If you need a middle of the night drop off, im your girl. My pets run free. I don't leash my own but if yours is a runner I have a tie out or I can put them on their leash for a nice walk. At night, mine sleep in their kennels with the door open. Its kinda just a bed with walls.
