About: I've been around dogs most of my life. I got a job as a dog walker back when I was 16, which then led me to working at an animal shelter, where I got experience with training dogs, dealing with difficult behaviours, administering medications, as well as many other skills. I am trained in pet CPR. I'm currently working part-time, so your pets will be taken care of outside of my scheduled shifts! They will always be fed and taken on a walk if they require it. In your home, your pet will never feel alone. I will maintain a clean and safe environment, make sure they are fed and always have access to water (especially now, with how hot it is!), and that they get all the pets and game time that they desire!
About: I would rescue animals such as dogs and cats and foster them to new homes, as well as growing up surrounded by pets. I take a lot of pride in keeping an eye on animals, going as far as buying and using GPS trackers for my own animals. I work part time currently until summer hours kick in, meaning I have plenty of time during weekdays and evenings to visit furry friends, bring them for walks, take them out for toilet runs and play with them. In my own house we have a walled yard with a gate that’s always closed shut for the dogs, my cats have tracking GPS collars so we are able to monitor their locations 24/7 but have a curfew of 6 pm at the latest. At others houses I ensure any possible exits are closed off and will stay with the animal at all times.
About: Ive had dogs ever since I was young, I have only had a cat a year so have only learnt. I have minded my families and friends pets since I was 16, I am now 19, when they needed, some for shorter periods and others for longer. I love all animals and take really good care of my own so I know I would be confident in ensuring others that I can do the same for them and their pets. I am done college now for the summer so I have a lot of free time, I work a part time job on the weekends, which requires me to be in early on weekends but I do finish early also. A usual shift for me is 6am - 2pm leaving me a whole afternoon to care, play and walk with pets. I care for others pets by making sure they are fed, have fresh water, and get regular exercise and attention. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding times, routines, and any special care if needed. I also keep their environment clean, ensure they feel safe and comfortable, and spend time playing with them. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Arklow on Rover is {{median_grand_total_num.as_currency}} per Visit (as of {{date}}). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting.
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialise in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your Eircode to find a sitter within walking distance in your neighbourhood.
Of course! Many sitters on Rover are experienced in caring for multiple pets simultaneously, whether you have a pack of dogs, a clowder of cats, or a mix of both.
Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Arklow pet parents with similar pet households.
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.
For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme 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.
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitter’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity verification, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or smart doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
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've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've 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're 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'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 contacting your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
