House sitters in Cork

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: Once I start petting a dog I find it hard to stop, I just want to give them all the love they deserve! I lived with some very active dogs in the past, others that would just lay down all day and eventually bark for no reason, but all of them were loving in a way or another. I believe that every pet can be friendly, we just need to respect their space and adapt how we behave according to their temperament sometimes. I work from home developing video games. I live in a rented house, that's why I don't really have pets myself, so I thought pet sitting could be a nice way to be around our fluffy friends When I visit a home I'm going to pet them (if they let it) and I'll try to play with them if they feel like it. If they don't I'll just wait a bit around, let them get used to me and feel more comfortable. Obviously I'll feed them and clean any poops around at some point as well. I can also send photos every time I visit or with a certain frequency if requested, I'll probably want to keep cute photos of them for myself anyway. I am happy to adjust my visits to other specifications as well

About: I have had multiple dogs in my family since I was 6 months old, ranging from jack Russell’s to Irish wolfhounds. Now the proud mom of a mini Schnauzer. I also mind friends and family’s dogs when they are away. I have trained all of my dogs since puppies and have also taken care of senior dogs. I am at home all of the time as my husband is away in the Navy. I am available 24/7 for pet sitting needs as it is just me and my dog We have a front side and back garden completely walled and fenced in which my dog Sunny loves to play in every day. We are also walking distance to Cobh town and I have my own car if we want to go further out. We have 3 bedrooms in our house so if the dog needs their own space that can easily be facilitated and Phone Watch security system goes on every night to protect windows and doors. Also have front and back ring cameras to see anyone coming

About: Hey, my name is Emma, and I’m a 21-year-old college student with a lifelong love for animals and aim to work with animals in my future particularly in animal welfare, conservation and behaviour. 
I’ve grown up around dogs, cats and horses, and love being surrounded by animals and ensuring they're safe, happy and healthy🥰 I take pride in providing the same level of care your pet would receive at home. However, I only take vaccinated pets into my home to maintain a safe and healthy environment for all.
I’ve also had the privilege of...
Volunteering with the Irish Guide Dogs-where I helped with basic training, socialisation, and caring for puppies in their early development stages as well as older dogs for temporary boarding which included an online learning course and in-person training. 
Volunteering with Dogs for the Disabled-in their holiday relief role where I cared for dogs in training during a short period of time when their full time owner couldn't. 
Volunteering at Wildlife Rescue Centre-where I worked in the centre helping feed, clean and care for the various animals and their enclosures along with rescuing injured, sick or orphaned wildlife and bringing them to the vet/centre. 

Each experience was an incredibly rewarding that offered the different opportunities which deepened my understanding of canine behaviour, managing and supporting wildlife and the importance of consistency, patience, and trust when working with all temperaments and different species.

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, and even fish! I truly love all animals and always treat each pet like family. I’m responsible, patient, and happy to help with feeding, cleaning, playtime, and any special care your pets need. Your furry, feathery, or finned friends will be safe and loved while you’re away! I’m working part‑time, which gives me flexibility to integrate pet care into my week seamlessly. I typically reserve mornings (7–9 AM) and evenings (5–8 PM) for drop‑in visits or playtime—and weekends are wide open for extended stays or boarding. With this schedule, I can consistently provide reliable, affectionate care and ensure plenty of quality time with your cats or dogs every day. 🐾 I create a safe and calm environment both at clients’ homes and mine. I always check doors and windows, close escape routes, and remove any items that could be risky. I follow owners’ instructions carefully for feeding, medication, litter box cleaning, and play routines. I keep everything clean and organized and send updates with photos so owners can relax knowing their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. 🐱✨

I take safety very seriously — I make sure doors and gates are properly secured, avoid risky areas during walks, and always keep pets on a leash unless instructed otherwise.

About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart. I believe they bring joy, comfort, and unconditional love into our lives, and they truly become part of the family. I’ve had two amazing dogs who taught me so much about loyalty and companionship. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, knowing how much I value and respect each animal. Whether it's a quick visit or extended care, I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. "I’m available in the morning from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM, and again from 5:00 PM until whenever needed. I’m not available in the afternoon because I have classes during that time. I care for each pet with the utmost respect, always making sure to meet both the owner's expectations and the animal's individual needs. I’m a very calm, understanding, and patient person, and I’m really looking forward to meeting your little friend!

About: I’ve owned and cared for cats since the age of 4. I currently own a 12 year old female black cat, her name is Beauty. I have experience administering cat medication if required. I will ensure your pet receives 5 star care, cuddles and playtime, and keep you updated by sending pictures and videos of your beloved pet. I currently work part time so I’m very flexible and adaptable. I have lots of free time to care for your pet. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions. I’m available for house sitting only. I can also provide references if required. I will ensure your pets utmost safety. I look forward to meeting your pet!

About: I grew up in a small town, spending lots of time at my grandmother’s countryside home, where I helped care for many animals — dogs, cats, birds, and even small rodents. That’s where my love for animals truly began. Throughout my teenage years, I had pets of my own, and for the past 8 years, I’ve been the proud human of two wonderful cats, Moira and Benjamin. I’ve also worked at a pet shop, where I learned even more about animal care. Animals have always been a big part of my life — sometimes, I think I connect with them even more than with people. I treat every pet with kindness, respect, and genuine affection. I currently have a very flexible schedule and can adapt to most times — just let me know in advance and we can arrange everything! While I’m not able to host pets in my home, I’m more than happy to visit yours and give your furry friend the care and attention they deserve. My priority is always to take care of your pet’s basic needs first — food, hygiene, medication (if needed), and comfort. After that, I focus on what I call their “emotional care”: playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply keeping them company, depending on their personality. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and videos, so you always know your fur baby is happy and safe.
