About: We are a family that loves dogs! We have two dogs: Donut (Corgi) and Passoca (Golden Retriever). We have a house with a good structure to receive dogs and provide fun holidays for them while they are away from their owners. In addition to fun, we also give attention and love, which is the most important thing so that the dogs feel comfortable and at home! I am currently at home, some freelance activities but mostly at home. My wife work from home most of the days and will support on care. Our house is spacious and has a large backgarden where the dogs play most of the time being a safe place and without access to the outside.
“Waldek went above and beyond when I needed someone to regularly check in on my outdoor cats while I was away for a couple of weeks. Would highly recommend him if you need peace of mind for your pets.”
About: I've been regularly dog sitting for family and friends for 6 years. I walk usually twice a day, in the morning and evening ensuring lots of activity for any dogs who need plenty of exercise. I have a fully secure garden in a terraced house meaning safety for your pet. I work full time from home so will be here to keep your favourite fluffy family member company on their visit. I have no kids or pets in the house to worry about so your dog will get all the attention they need to settle in and without any worry about other household members. Weekdays im up at 7, take a 30 minute walk. I work from home 8-5 and then head out for another walk for about 45 mins/1 hour. I have a fully walled garden meaning total safety for your pet. No pets or kids in the house so you can rest easy while you're away.
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life. I had a Jack russel terrier when I was 3 till he was about 14 and I was always walking , feeding him up until his last years. We adopted a Labrador retriever nearly 3 years ago this month who me and my family love and adore! So I’m not afraid of big lively dogs whatsoever! We also recently adopted my granny who passed away a couple months ago. We knew it wouldn’t be right for them to go to a home or shelter as they are both over the ages of ten! So we adopted them into our home. A cute little Shih tzu and a terrier! Not only have I grown up with dogs in my immediate family I have been taking care of my family dogs too. Every summer I used to head up to limerick and walk my granny’s and cousins dogs while they were at work everyday. I’ve taken care of neighbours dogs and walked them too. I have such love and passion for any type or size of dog!! I’m currently studying criminology in college but I am finished up next week! I work a couple shifts in the theatre bar in the arts centre in drogheda and pick up shifts in sonairte when I can! So my schedule is quite flexible during the week and on weekends! I have a fenced back garden with enough space for your dogs to run around! If your dog doesn’t get along great with other dogs I can easily crate or put your dog in a separate room to mine. I will always accommodate to your dogs needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Carrickmacross 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 Pet 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 Pet 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or toilet breaks occurred, for doggy day care, home visits, and dog walking services. You can also message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available by email or chat if you have concerns.
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 Carrickmacross 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.
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 Carrickmacross choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 vet. 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 authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into your 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 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.
