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 have two gorgeous dogs at home, Maple and Roxy. A Bernese mountain dog and a border collie. My mother is a dog trainer and I really enjoyed walking my dogs and helping her train them. I’m living in Cork city now and I miss walking my dogs and spending time with them. They’re amazing animals who can always brighten my day and I’d love to go for walks and look after them for you! I’m currently working part time in retail so have plenty of time for walks and drop in visits! I live very centrally to the city. I have experience with a highly reactive border collie (my dog roxy) and understand anxiety in dogs especially in regards to other dogs. I can also give dogs food in slow feeders or snuffle mats if needed.

I’m available Monday to Sunday (except during my English class 1–4:30 PM, Mon–Fri), and I make sure every furry friend gets walks, cuddles, and lots of love.

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 have been surrounded by animals for most of my life and have always had a special love for dogs and cats. Growing up, my family had several dogs and cats, which gave me experience caring for pets of different personalities, sizes, and needs. As the owner of a Border Collie, I developed a strong understanding of the importance of daily exercise, mental stimulation, and consistent care. We regularly went on long walks, played in parks, and enjoyed outdoor activities together. This experience taught me how to handle energetic dogs, recognize their needs, and ensure they feel happy, safe, and well cared for. I am comfortable with dog walking, feeding, providing companionship, playtime, and following owners' instructions regarding routines and special requirements. I understand that pets are family members, and I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and enjoyable experience for your pets while giving you peace of mind knowing they are in caring hands. 🐾❤️ I am currently not working, so I have full availability throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I am flexible with morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I am happy to provide boarding, walks, and care at any time that works best for you. I provide attentive, responsible, and loving care for pets either in my home or in the pet owner’s home, always following the specific instructions given by the owner. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed by maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any medication if needed. I also pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, making sure they are happy and stress-free while their owners are away. For dogs, I enjoy regular walks, exercise, and interactive play to keep them active and engaged. For cats, I ensure a calm environment, clean litter boxes, fresh water, and gentle interaction according to their personality and comfort level. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, care, and affection, always prioritizing their safety and happiness.

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. 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 if you live in my area 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 on any weekend or bank holiday if you live in Cork City or around, Ballinlough, or Douglas. 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: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pet. I provide reliable, attentive, and loving care, with regular updates and photos for peace of mind. 🐾 Caring for dogs is part of my everyday life. I have three large dogs of my own, so daily walks, feeding, exercise, and playtime are already built into my routine. This makes it easy for me to provide reliable and attentive care for other pets as well. 🐾 In a pet owner’s home, I make sure pets maintain their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and relaxed. I spend quality time with them, provide companionship, playtime, fresh water, meals, and regular walks.

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.

About: Hi! I’m Erin, a reliable and caring animal lover with hands-on experience caring for my own dogs, a pug and a cocker spaniel. Growing up with dogs, hamsters and birds has given me a deep understanding of different personalities, energy levels, and routines.

🐶 I’m passionate about being a pet sitter because I love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I adapt my approach to each dog’s needs, whether that’s a calm, relaxed walk or something more active and engaging.

🦮 Walks typically last between 30 minutes and an hour, depending on what suits your dog best. When caring for multiple pets, I ensure each one gets individual attention and is handled safely and calmly. My experience with dogs means I know how to stay calm and respond effectively in unexpected situations, from minor scrapes to vet visits.

🚗 I'm based in Douglas, and I have a full, clean driving license. 

I pride myself on being dependable and attentive, and I provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.


😁 I'm happy to answer any questions and provide more info - drop me a text any time! I currently work part-time, so I’m available for dog walks, home visits, and pet sitting. I’m available after 4:30pm Tuesday to Friday, and fully available Saturday to Monday. I currently don’t care for pets of any kind in my home at the moment, due to my two dogs individual needs right now.

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 have two small dogs of my own. Close to city centre. Back yard, dogs have access to always. House dogs. Your dog will be in the house with my two and they will be walked daily at least once and more weather dependent. No rules for your doggy unless instructed. Your dog will be treated the same as my own, always in my company with exception of short periods if I have to go to shop (some office hours which I will pre agree) and will also be in my company at night while they sleep to ambient relaxing dog music/white noise. Small and miniature dogs only really. I will consider small/medium if they are calm. Dogs always have access to the outside via flap and will be with my two in the event non supervision is agreed if I have to go to office for a while, with visibility always via cameras. Thank you for taking the time to read and I will provide the best care and comfort for your dog in your absence with regular updates, photos and videos.

About: Lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for small and medium breeds. My pet care philosophy focuses on patience, love, and ensuring every walk is a fun adventure.

I attend a part-time English school midday, which makes my schedule very flexible! I am available for pet sitting every night, including weekends. I am also free in the mornings before 12:00 PM and in the evenings after 5:00 PM—perfect for an energetic morning stroll to start the day or a relaxing evening walk before bedtime.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Cork

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Cork on Rover is €16.1 per walk (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of June 2026, there are 106 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Cork. Enter your Eircode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-to-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Cork. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Tip: Keep in mind that many cities require your dog walker to have a permit or licence for group walks.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poo and pee breaks, and distance travelled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Cork.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

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.

Every pet sitter, walker, and boarding sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to €25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and Walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for last-minute bookings for Dog Walking. With 106 Walkers in Cork, 30% respond to messages in under 5 minutes.

Many sitters keep their calendars updated in real time and you can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care in the next 24 hours, you can look for sitters with a 'calendar last updated' notice on their profiles.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cut-off time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will apply. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
