About: I've always been the one in my family who's called on to take care of family members pets while they've been away. I have a natural rapport with dogs and cats ever since I was a child and I have been known to rescue all kinds of animals. I offer genuine care for your individual pet's needs. I look forward to meeting your furry friends. I'm currenty working part time as a writer from home so I can be quite flexible and work around my schedule to suit the times you need for a drop in visit or walks for your pet in your neighbourhood. I'll greet your pet and provide them with food (if required) and fresh water. I'll take care of any other tasks related to their care during the visit. I can also send an update photo of your pet to you for peace of mind. Drop-In Visits (30 or 60 Mins): Perfect for feeding, fresh water refills, quick potty breaks, play sessions, or just giving them some extra affection while you're out. Dog Walking: Fun, safe, and tailored walks matched to your dog’s specific energy level, pace, and mobility.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, and really miss having my family home pets around. I would be more than happy to have some snuggles to keep your fur babies company while you are away! :) I’m currently working full time but have time on weekends or evenings to care for your pets! I also live a short walk from work and tend to go home on my lunch breaks, if your pet is independent I have a very small area out the back of my house which is completely enclosed, and I’m more than happy to have them on the couch or on the bed, whatever they would prefer
“Natalia was a wonderful pet sitter for my cat Mitsy and looked after her really well while I was away for a week. She sent lovely updates regularly and I found a happy cat on my return 😺 I would highly recommend Natalia for cat sitting 🙂”
About: My name is Timi, originally from Hungary, but I grew up in Spain. I live here in Cork for 7 years and got the citizenship. I live with my 17 year old son. I work from home with a very flexible work schedule. I grew up with a German Shepherd and a Labrador and two house cats. I worked in three big pet shops in Budapest. We were selling hamsters, birds, bunnies, different type of lizards, tarantulas, snakes, turtles, tortoises, mice, rats, guinea pigs, ferrets, fish, chameleons, chinchillas, chipmunks, and other small pets. We also had grey parrots, and I made friends with a cockatoo. I had an Irish Setter that I loved very much. Then, I had a Basset Hound, a Chinese soft-shell turtle, and a Persian cat at the same time. Later, while working in the pet store, I took in a pregnant hamster that had 15 pups. I also had dwarf hamsters and guppies. I went to the Budapest Zoo two times a year where I could feed the elephants by handing them an apple or a carrot. It was an amazing experience. I also visited a country side zoo where I could pet lion cubs for a short time, and a Zoo cafe where you could hold onto different small pets. I moved to Spain where I had 10 budgies in an aviary on the balcony, and rescued a rosy-faced lovebird and a yellow-collard lovebird. They fell in love with each other and became a couple. I have a cat here in Cork. It is an outdoor cat. I made friends with a robin who was coming to my hand for two years. He was also coming into my room to eat. I have some magpie friends who are coming to my window to ask for dry cat food. I can take your dog for a walk or do daily visits and feed your cat or dog. Unfortunately, I can't host any animals in my home anymore because animals are not allowed inside the rental. I also would be happy to feed your hamster, bird, reptile, or any other small animal you have and clean their space. I have experience with most of them due to working in pet shops for many years. I am available any time. I can send you photos and updates about your pet anytime. I am working from home Mon-Thu 5 pm, Fri 4 pm. I can also walk your dog or feed your cat and another pets on any weekend or bank holiday. I feed your pet, clean their plates and their place, clean the cat toilet, rub them, play with them, brush them, and give them lots of love.
About: Hi! My name is Marta, and I’m 23 years old. I started taking care of pets during the pandemic, and since then, I’ve completely fallen in love with it. I’m a caring, responsible and attentive person. I love caring for animals because they bring so much joy to my day and make everyday life feel lighter and happier. I always do my best to make every pet feel safe, comfortable and loved. I currently study in the mornings, so I’m available to care for pets from 1 PM onwards. I’m available every day, Monday to Sunday, and I can be flexible with my schedule to provide the best possible care. I will always follow the owner’s instructions and care for each pet according to their needs and routine. I’ll keep the environment safe and clean, provide plenty of attention, affection and playtime, and follow the owner’s feeding instructions. If needed, I can also administer medication as instructed.
About: At a young age I started working with farm animals (mostly horses, goats and sheep). A few years ago I pet-sat a full year for a dog breeder / behaviourist which thought me a lot about dogs specifically. I have always had good instincts when it comes to most animals and have had a few of my own. Being in a new country makes me miss having dogs or cats around. I'm a full-time student in a new country. During weekdays I have around 8 hours of class. Usually from morning until 3/4 pm after that and during the weekends my schedule is very flexible. I live in student accommodation and cannot care for dogs in my house at the moment. I'll be more than happy to take them out for long walks or to care for them in their own houses.
About: I've owned German Shepherds all my life and have house and pet sitted for friends for years. Am very responsible and reliable and trustworthy I am currently off work so have flexible availability. The only time I'm busy is during school time when I collect my niece from school and drop her home afterwards Treat pets like they are my own, go with their routine and stick to it. Have no problem giving medications and sticking to any dietary requirements
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 14, especially my own pug who is now 12 years old. Looking after her over the years has taught me patience, attention and how to care for dogs at different stages of life. I truly love being around dogs — taking them for walks, playing with them and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Friends and family know they can rely on me to care for pets with kindness, responsibility and lots of affection. I’m available to care for pets from Monday to Friday after 1pm, and I have full availability on Saturdays and Sundays. This gives me plenty of time to focus on walks, playtime and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I currently live in an apartment and cannot host pets in my home, but I’m happy to care for them in the owner’s home or take them out for walks. I always prioritize a calm, safe and loving environment for every pet. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, respect the pet’s routine, and make sure they feel comfortable, safe and well cared for at all times.
About: I am Brazilian, we used to live in apartment blocks, and dogs require a lot of attention and they have a lot of energy. I used to walk my neighbours dogs since I’m 15. I also served as an overnight sitter when they went on holidays. My schedule is very flexible! I can try fitting in your routine and we can make it work :) I’m always free at night time during the week and majority of mornings too! Free on Saturday mornings and Sunday Afternoons. At home, my dog Cookie is part of the family. I like to ask the dog’s/owner’s schedule, so the pet doesn’t really get impacted with the change in the routine. I like to give a lot of attention and show that I’m present to the pet at the moment. Lots of walks, maybe movie nights, biscuits and play time.

We felt so lucky to have Helena looking after our cat while we were away on holiday. She is a genuine animal lover; so kind, gentle and caring.

She is also very pleasant and lovely to deal with. It was our first experience of hiring a professional pet sitter and Helena exceeded our expectations.

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 pri hown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
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 Cork 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.

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 , 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 .
