About: I grew up constantly surrounded by pets including dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and more so I have always been connected to animals and have been pet-sitting for a long time. I am comfortable with a wide range of sizes and breeds. Beyond their basic needs, I am also comfortable administering routine medication, accommodating to each dog’s special needs, and reinforcing any preexisting training during our time together. I am currently writing my master's thesis, so I have plenty of time to keep your cats company! Since my schedule is flexible, I am able to easily move things around to best fit your and your pet’s needs. Having grown up with many pets from a young age and having experience pet-sitting a variety of dogs + cats, I am able to easily spot possible hazards and know how to create a comfortable environment for them. From timid to extroverted dogs, I know how to read their body language, respect their boundaries, and nurture a good relationship with them.

About: I really love animals, especially dogs! Until last month, I lived with 6 dogs of different sizes in Argentina. They were part of my family, and I always took care of them with love. I also helped my neighbors by looking after their dogs when they traveled I’m very affectionate and careful with pets I study in the mornings from Monday to Thursday, in the afternoons I would love to take care of your pets, I also have full time available on Fridays and weekends. With me, dogs are guaranteed lots of love and care. I’ll walk them, feed them, and make sure they get everything they need. If they enjoy bath time, I’ll happily take care of that too! I treat every pet as if they were my own

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and farm animals, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. As an adult, I’ve continued sharing my life with both dogs and cats, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. I’m a biologist, and I’ve even had the chance to help with rabies vaccination campaigns in Africa alongside specialized veterinarians for several years. Friends and family often trust me to take care of their pets when they need a hand. I love going for walks, playing, and just hanging out with animals, it never feels like work to me! I am currently learning academic english in UCC and I am able to work after classes. I am available from 2pm onwards on Mondays and Tuesdays and the whole day on Fridays and weekends. I am free to overnight if needed. I am very flexible. I prefer to care for pets at the clients home; I live in a house that already have 3 dogs and bringing a extra pet will not be suitable. I will follow all the instructions from the client conscientiously on how the pet needs to be cared. Each pet have their own ways and it is very important to embrace their needs and personalities.

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. (He can be separated from your pets). 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 live in a terraced house with a small garden and plenty of room. I am happy to host your cat-friendly dog or dogs that aren't violent to cats, or any small pets you have for nights as well. I can fully separate your pet from my cat as I have a back entrance to the house too. I can also take your dog for a walk if you live in my area as I don’t have a car. I also would be happy to mind your hamster, bird, reptile, or any other small animal you have. I have experience with most of them due to working in pet shops for many years. Unfortunately, I cannot host cats due to their territorial nature that could drive my cat away from home. But I am happy to do daily visits to cats to their home. I can also do drop-in visits to your small pets, feed them, and clean their space. I am available any time. I am always home. 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 on any weekend or bank holiday if you live in Cork City or around, Ballinlough, or Douglas. I have a fenced small garden and a good sized living space. I can host only cat-friendly dogs or dogs that aren't violent to cats as I have an outdoor cat. My cat is neutered and vaccinated. I can fully separate your pet from my cat as I also have a backdoor that he uses when I am minding dogs. Your pet and my cat will never meet.

About: 📢 Contact me with your pets' needs. I'll be delighted to check my calendar and see how I can fit them into my schedule! 💚 I've grown up with cats and dogs, between my house and the grandparents. I am attentive and aware each is different and may have different requirements. I am working part time and live in the city centre so can help you out to ensure your baby is looked after when you're not there! My cats are indoor only. I have a strict feeding schedule and ensure they have both cuddle and playtime with me. I have created an engaging environment for them with a cat wheel, toys that suit them etc. I am particularly attentive to cleanliness as cats enjoy a neat environment.

About: I spent many summers taking care of my family's dogs; I used to have a Labrador, but currently I have a cat who thinks he's a dog—he's really not afraid. I love cats and dogs. Currently I work the night shift from 3 PM to midnight. I have free time to walk your pet or visit them in the morning or early afternoon. I live in a building on the third floor, I have a park nearby to walk in, and my house is safe because I don't have access to the street.

I’ve grown up around animals and have a deep love for them and years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds.

I understand that every pet is unique, and I’m committed to providing loving, reliable care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and happy in a way that's suits you and your pets best.

I am happy to look after your pets in your home if that's what you need.

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: Dedicated, Experienced, and Reliable Pet Sitter in Ireland – Attention, affection, safety, and basic training for your dog or cat as if they were family! I am passionate about animals and offer responsible, attentive, and loving care for dogs and cats. I have no allergies and a degree in Biomedicine, which allows me to administer medication safely and responsibly, ensuring the well-being of your pet in any situation. In addition, I have knowledge of basic training, such as "sit," "stay," "lie down," and permission commands, helping to reinforce positive behaviors and discipline in your pet in a gentle and effective way. I have practical experience gained in Brazil, where I cared for Moana, a 6-year-old Border Collie who needed full-time attention 24 hours a day, at least 2 days a week, for almost a year, developing a routine of intensive care, affection, and constant monitoring. I also cared for Bruce, a 3-year-old Labrador, taking him for 40-minute walks three times a week, in addition to taking him for vaccinations, baths, and daycare. I am dedicated, careful, and treat each animal as unique, respecting their needs, routine, and personality. Your pet will be in good hands, with love, responsibility, quality attention, and support in basic training! I make house calls by arrangement, or overnight stays as well. My pet walks last an average of 30 minutes. In case of emergencies, I contact the nearest veterinarian, notify the pet owners, or inform the family's trusted veterinarian. We can stay in touch during walks in whatever way the pet owners prefer. My schedule is as follows: I study English from Monday to Thursday in the city centre from 1 pm to 5 pm. I am available in the mornings, on Fridays, weekends, and also on public holidays. I am not working full-time or part-time, as I am fully dedicated to caring for pets. I offer pet care for both cats and dogs, including walks, visits, and general care. With my experience, especially with dog walking, I can recognize signs of danger or discomfort in pets. I am punctual and always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I can send photos and videos of the pet if the owner is not nearby, and during walks I provide updates when I arrive and when the walk is finished. In case of any emergency, I will contact the owner immediately and, if necessary, reach out to the nearest veterinarian or the family’s trusted vet

About: Hi there! My name is Diarmuid and I'm based in Bishopstown. I'd love to help you guys out with your pet sitting needs! My family have always had dogs in our home and I learned how to care for and train dogs from when I was a young kid. I have been teaching dogs basic commands such as recall, sit, stay and heel for many years and value the importance of making sure a dog's needs are met in terms of exercise, mental stimulation and of course play! In recent years I have taken care of friends pets while their owners are away which has involved toilet training, walking, feeding, playtime and trips out to the dog park and local forests. I am very passionate about the wellbeing of all animals and would love to help any dog that needs a walk or a sitter. I also have experience with looking after cats :) Services include dog walking and pet sitting. Please get in touch and we can arrange times that suit you and your pet. Thank you! I have been interested in dog training from a very young age and I am currently studying full time to be a qualified dog trainer. Unfortunately I can not offer any services from my home at this time and can only accept customers looking for dog walking and over night pet sitting
