About: I’ve had a family dog ever since I was little! I’ve enjoyed training, grooming, walking, and cuddling my sweet dogs for at least 15 years. I also have experience dog sitting for extended family. Currently I am a full time Master’s student missing taking care of my family dog. I am available mostly on weekends with some open times during the week. I have a spacious apartment on the ground floor and back onto a park where dogs frequently run around giving lots of opportunity for socialization and exercise.

About: I am currently studying Zoology in UCD and I have a QQI Level 5 Certificate in Animal Care enabling me to provide exceptional attention to detail and care for your fluffball. I am also a brand ambassador for Butternut Box, a fresh dog food company. If you are away for a long period of time, I can provide additional services such as taking care of your plants or any other miscellaneous jobs that need upkeep around the house. I have a car for transport in case of any emergency. I also have an updated tetanus vaccine. Feel free to contact me for further details! I am a Zoology student at UCD and go in for a few hours a day, otherwise I am studying at home and am available to provide care for your animal/s for most of the day. This works very well for me, as I get to do what I love, which is care for animals, gain experience and support myself through college. I would ensure care for your pet by providing my company as much as possible, making sure the pet is getting adequate exercise and is fed according to any dietary routines set by you. Any medications I would admisiter with great care and consistent timing if needed. I would also maintain a hygenic environment to mitigate risk of health issues.

About: I’m a third year Animal Science student at University College Dublin with a huge passion for animal care and welfare. I regularly look after and walk my neighbours and family members dogs when they’re away, and I love spending time with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I also enjoy joining my friends on walks with their dogs whenever I can. I’m reliable, responsible, and caring, and I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, happy, and well looked after. I’ll always treat your pet as if they were my own and make sure they receive plenty of exercise, attention, and affection while you’re away. I’m currently very flexible over the summer and am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, pet sitting, and feeding throughout the day, evenings, and weekends. I’ll be returning to college in September, but I’ll still be happy to work around my college timetable. I’ll do my best to accommodate to different schedules! Unfortunately, I can’t care for pets in my own home due to family health and allergy considerations. However, I’m more than happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home through drop-in visits, dog walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand that pets are happiest when they can stick to their usual routine, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and affection while you’re away. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and treat your pets as if they were my own.

“Emma is super nice and responsive, always on time. She likes the puppy and spent a lot of time with him. I feel comfortable to let Emma take care of my puppy when I am away.”

“Egija was absolutely amazing with our doggie Honey, and a life save with such a last minute booking. She was so responsive with messaging and kept me updated at all times. Honey had the best time and can’t wait for her next outing!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and absolutely love spending time with them. I grew up with a black Labrador who was part of the family for 14 years, followed by a lively Jack Russell, so I’m very familiar with different personalities and energy levels. Over the years I’ve also looked after many dogs for friends and family, from relaxed companions to high-energy explorers. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, it just means I pour all that attention and affection into the dogs I care for. I love getting dogs out on proper adventures — long walks, hikes, and plenty of time exploring the outdoors. My goal is always to make sure they come home happy, exercised, and maybe just a little bit spoiled! My shift schedule gives me flexibility throughout the week, meaning I’m often available at times when others aren’t — including weekdays and daytime hours. When I’m minding a dog, I make sure they get lots of time, walks, and attention. Safety is very important to me when caring for dogs. I make sure leads and harnesses are secure, stay aware of the environment on walks, and avoid situations that could be stressful or unsafe. I’m happy to follow each dog’s routine and any specific instructions from their owner to keep them comfortable and safe.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I’ve minded many dogs over the years — of all sizes and personalities, including long dog-sitting stays such as a three-month sit and multiple week-long sits. I’m currently living in Dublin, having just moved home from Vancouver and I am working as an online personal trainer so my schedule is very flexible. I’m friendly, reliable, and always make sure dogs feel safe, loved, and well cared for on every walk or stay. I'm a personal trainer who fully works online, which gives me a flexible schedule. I enjoy taking breaks throughout the day to get fresh air, making dog walking a perfect fit. I’m mostly available during the week, but sometimes free on the weekends too. I care for pets by sticking closely to their usual routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, keep their space safe and tidy, and provide updates and photos. I’m calm, reliable, and always prioritize a pet’s comfort, safety, and wellbeing.

About: Huge animal lover , who sadly lives in a rental that doesn’t allow pets so happy to get some time with furry friends whenever I can! Have grown up with dogs and cats and have volunteered at pet shelters while living abroad. Lots of experience with dogs and cats of all ages from little babies to senior citizens! Your pet will be in safe, experienced hands (and will also get bundles of cuddles and kisses) I have a very flexible work from home schedule so can easily make myself available as required. Happy to work around your pets needs. I have a lot of experience of this as I have grown up with pets and around animals my entire life. I’m very detailed oriented, caring and responsible, I will ALWAYS but your pets safety and comfort at the forefront. Very good knowledge of animal behaviour and body language also.

About: With four years as a chihuahua owner and one year with a cat, I bring real, hands on experience to every sit. I understand small breed quirks the anxiety, the big personality, the need for warmth and routine. And cats? I'm genuinely obsessed. I know how to earn their trust on their terms, not mine. I'm comfortable with multi-pet households, senior animals, and spotting when something feels "off." Your pets won't just be supervised they'll be loved by someone who truly understands them. Im currently working a very short amount of time in the mornings 9am-11am and some other times for other times Im fully free to take care of the pet and exercise, have fun with them! :)) So I wont leave them more than 5h. I am not available to take pets at my house currently due to the safety environment and non stressful area for the dog and my sister's allergy. So boarding isn't working with me but house sitting is completely fine with me and I am also okay with cameras in specific spots.

About: Hey there! I am an easy-going and organised person. I love pets, especially cats, though dogs have a special place too. I know cats and dogs have different personalities, but we can find a common language. If your furry friend is ready to play for the whole day, I am happy to help, and if they prefer calm and relaxed atmosphere, I am good with that too. I have always lived with cats and now I miss my cat back home, her name is Masha and she is very playful. So I will bring all of that love to your friend. I send daily photos so you can be sure your pet is having a great time. I am currently not working so I can give my full attention to your pet. I can adjust to their schedule. I am available during whole week - weekdays and weekends I follow the instructions you provide. If you let your pets outside, on a walk or just your garden, I will let them too. I have a big room and pets can go on tables, beds, and anywhere they want. I have a balcony but I keep it close.

“Helena suggested to meet a day before the booking so that our puppy could get to know her, which is very thoughtful to avoid stressing the animal on the day of the booking, as it was our first time with Helena. Our dog was very happy to see Helena again for a 1-hour walk, and when we came back, our puppy was very relaxed and happy. We definitely recommend Helena’s services.”

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. Have had pets of my own and have on and walked and dog sit. I have dog sit for upwards of a month. I am super active and am always looking for company on my walks. I am currently working part-time, with shifts typically scheduled in either the mornings or evenings. Because of this, my availability can vary slightly week to week, but overall I have a relatively flexible schedule and am usually able to accommodate bookings with advance notice. I’m happy to work with pet owners to find times that suit both of our schedules I’m very comfortable with house sits and caring for pets in their own home, where they’re usually most comfortable. Unfortunately, I can’t host pets overnight because I live in a house share, though I do have a small yard for daytime use. I’m always happy to stay in your home and provide reliable, attentive care while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I got my first dog when I was 6 years old, I love dogs ! I have a rescue dog right now, collie shitzu and poodle all mixed together. He requires a lot of walks a day and is very high energy! I take care of my dog every day! I take him in walks every day, play with him, feed him. I have trained him to sit, paw, stay and lie. By giving them loads of attention, loads of cuddles ! Playing with them. I just love dogs so much, I prefer them to humans! They are the best company.

About: I’ve always had a cat or a dog and been responsible for taking care of them. I love playing outside and taking them for walks. I play soccer, train everyday and babysit occasionally but usually have a flexible schedule. I am always free during the day and other times as well. I make sure the pet feels comfortable and is always safe. I follow all the rules that the owner gives and provides updates so they know the pet is safe.

About: I have three pets at home two cats and a large dog, I also take care of my grandmothers cat when she isn’t well. I have plenty of experience minding animals for friends and family in my home and at theirs when they are away. I am currently in college and working part time, I’m available in the afternoon and evenings and on weekends. On weekends I’m involved in my college’s rowing club and finished at 1. I have a fenced backyard and and a spacious living room to keep pets. I am able to come and take care of your animals in your house if you would prefer.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and genuinely can’t remember a time when there wasn’t one in my life! I currently have Ollie, a 13-year-old Pugalier, so I’m used to everything from energetic younger dogs to the slightly slower pace (and very specific demands) that can come with older dogs. I work from home regularly, have a fully fenced garden and would only take a small number of bookings, so your dog won’t be one of several being looked after at the same time. I’d much rather make sure they settle in properly and feel completely at home. I know how particular I am about who I’d leave Ollie with, so I completely understand wanting to know your dog is somewhere safe, relaxed and well looked after. I’m very happy to stick to their normal routine, walks, feeding schedule and whatever little quirks they come with, and you can expect plenty of photo updates while they’re here! My schedule is quite flexible at the moment, so I have plenty of time to fit pet care into my day rather than trying to squeeze it in around a 9–5. If your pet is staying with me, I’ll be around regularly throughout the day for company, walks, feeding and whatever their usual routine involves. I’m also flexible for drop-ins and happy to work around your pet’s normal schedule as much as possible. I know how much trust is involved in leaving your pet with someone else, so I’ll always take the time beforehand to understand their routine, personality and anything I need to know to keep them happy and safe. At home, I have a fully fenced garden and my own friendly older dog, Ollie. I’d always want dogs to meet first before agreeing to a stay, and I only take a small number of bookings so I can give each pet plenty of attention and make sure everyone is comfortable. For drop-ins, I’ll treat your home exactly as I’d want someone to treat mine, follow your instructions closely and keep you updated while you’re away. And yes, photos will absolutely be provided (probably more than you asked for 😂)

About: I'm an experienced house and pet sitter. With how busy schedules can be I strive to use different tools and approaches to help enrich your pets' lives. I love going on long walks, especially to the beach, playing fetch and teaching tricks! I am educated on dog and cat care with a passion to keep learning. I focus on quality enrichment aiming to be a positive and patient person for your pets. Pet care fits my lifestyle perfectly, as a Dublin creative most of my responsibilities are fortnightly which leaves me with free full days and nights. I currently live in a pet friendly apartment building with a big back yard for playing and a five minute walk from Herbert Park and 20 minute walk from Merrion Square Park.

About: I have a lot of experience in dog walking in my hometown, usually I walk with my dog at least twice a day( if the weather is rainy, I'll put a raincoat on her:), because I don't want her to get sick). I worked at home, so I stay with my pet almost everyday.
But now, I'm studying in Ireland for my master, so I live alone and separated from my pet, I missing her a lot;(.
So I wanna find a job that I can stay with another lovely and furry creatures to reduce my missing of my dog.
Besides, I always have experience of walking my neighbor's dogs. And I also worked in stray dog rescue base as a volunteer for 4 year during my university. I bathe dogs, comb their hair, feed them, teach other new volunteers how to take care of them, and of course walk them.I'm every reliable. I have classes on working day, I’m available for weekends and Tuesday and Friday. But if that day is holiday, so that I don’t have classes that day, I’m also available. I can only care for pets in a pet owner’s home, because because I live with others now and don’t have enough place for pets.
