Elisa has been a wonderful Cat Sitter for our 2 cats, we just returned from our holidays and found the cats in perfect condition, and the flat too. This was our first time using Elisa’s services and we were hugely impressed.She was extremely kind updating us with pictures every day. We will certainly have Elisa come back again next time we go away.

Ivana has taken amazing care of my two cats. She's very responsive and took my spontaneous request very quickly. As a cat mom herself, she made sure to follow all directions for my cats in great detail and sent me lovely messages and pictures of my cats ☺️ my cats were happy and relaxed once I arrived back at home. Thank you so much, Ivana!

About: Hi! I'm Constanza, and I've been an animal lover my entire life. I grew up with both dogs and cats and have always had them as part of my family, so I know how special they are and how much trust it takes to leave a pet with someone. While I'm new to professional pet care, my experience comes from a lifetime of hands, on care, from energetic puppies and playful kittens who need all the exercise and stimulation, to senior dogs and cats who just need a gentle pace, a cozy lap, and plenty of quiet cuddles. I'm based in Dublín and offer services tailored to your pet's unique personality. For dogs, that means walks full of fun, sniffing opportunities, and tail wags. For cats, that means playtime, companionship, and lots of gentle attention while you're away. I'm responsible, punctual, and will treat your pet with the same love and care I've given my own. I can't wait to meet your furry best friend! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine. I'm currently taking an English course from Monday to Friday in the mornings, which is why I'm available from 1:00 PM onwards on weekdays. On Saturdays and Sundays, I have full-day availability, so I can adapt to whatever your pet needs, whether it's a long walk, playtime, or just some company and cuddles while you're away. I'm committed to being reliable and punctual, and I'll always make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Since I offer dog walking and home visits, I always prioritize the safety and comfort of your pet in their own environment. When I visit your home, I make sure to follow your instructions carefully, whether it's feeding, playing, or just keeping them company. I'm very respectful of your space and always ensure doors and gates are properly closed to prevent any escapes. During walks, I keep dogs on a leash at all times unless we're in a safe, enclosed area you've approved. I avoid busy roads, stay alert to their body language, and make sure they have a fun but safe experience. I also carry water for them and avoid walking in extreme weather. I'll always send you updates and photos so you can see how happy and well-cared-for your pet is while you're away.

About: Hi everyone. I'm Irvin, a 36 years old Mexican currently living in Ireland and studying English in the mornings. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, because I know exactly how I would want my own dog to be treated: with so much love, patience and a lot of attention. The dog in my profile picture is Ruffo, a 7 years old schnauzer who taught me that life without a four-legged friend isn't life at all. Being away from him made me realize how much I genuinely love being around animals, and that's one of the reasons I decided to become a pet sitter here. I have more than 10 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats of different sizes and temperaments. I'm a kind, sensitive, and very responsible person who loves animals. I offer in-home pet sitting and walking services. I'm happy to get covered in fur, take them on fun walks and play a lot with them. I can take care of cats as well. In addition, I have training to give medicaments to pets, to apply inyections and wash them. Of course I can adapt to the owners' rules. With me, your pet will be treated like family, because is the less I expect for a pet sitter.

Jennifer did an amazing job looking after our cat Oreo while we were away. She sent us regular updates with photos and made a real effort to entertain our moody cat :) We returned to a very happy cat and would recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a sitter.

Stella was fantastic! She checked in on my Kit for a few days while my boyfriend and I were travelling. She really got us out of a bad spot as our plans to leave were pretty last minute. Great communication from her at all times, lots of updates including photos and vids, and Kit seemed to be in good spirits when we got back. Will be hiring her again :)

I was so lucky to find Adele. She took fantastic care of my young cat Mimi when I was away for 2 whole weeks. She provided consistent feedback and pictures which really put my mind at ease while away. She was gentle, affectionate and kind with mimi. She took great care of the cleaning and minding responsibility of having a pet while I was away. Couldn't recommend enough! ❤️

About: I have always loved animals and have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I have two Dalmatians, Lupe and Luna, so I’m very used to the energy, attention and daily care that dogs need. I understand that every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow their individual routines and needs while making sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved. My schedule is flexible, and I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for regular visits, walks and overnight stays depending on the pet’s needs. I’m responsible and punctual, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s usual routine to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I always make sure pets are in a safe, clean and comfortable environment. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding times, walks, medication if needed, and their usual routines. I’m patient and attentive, and I always keep doors, gates and windows secure to prevent pets from escaping. I treat every pet and every home with respect, care and responsibility.

About: I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I had a Maltipoo for four years, so I’m very familiar with the everyday routine of having a dog, from walks and playtime to feeding, grooming and, of course, plenty of attention and cuddles. Throughout the past year, I also regularly pet-sat a Golden Retriever, which gave me experience caring for a much larger and more energetic dog. I’m comfortable with regular walks, playtime and adapting to each dog’s usual routine and individual needs. I am currently studying my master, but I am at uni only 2 days a week. I'll schedule the rest of my time based on the cat's routine. The cat will always be the priority. My studio is small but cosy, with everything a cat might need to feel comfortable and at home. I have plenty of cat toys to keep them entertained, a quiet and safe space for their litter tray, and several cosy spots where they can curl up and nap undisturbed. Since the space is quite compact, it’s also easy for me to keep an eye on them and make sure they’re settled and happy. The studio is calm and relatively quiet, without lots of people coming and going, so it can be a good environment for cats who prefer a peaceful space. I’m also happy to adapt the room around each cat’s habits and personality, whether they’re playful and curious or would rather find a comfortable corner and snooze for most of the day.

About: Hi. I'm Lily, a Mexican currently living in Ireland and studying English in the mornings. The dog in my profile picture is Ruffo, a beautiful 7 years old Schnauzer who has been with me for over 5 years and taught me that life without a four-legged friend isn't life at all. I'm a kind, sensitive, and responsible person who loves dogs. I offer in-home pet sitting and walking services. I'm happy to get covered in fur, take them on fun walks, and play with them. I adapt to the owners' rules. Can you lend me a paw? I currently study English for 3 hours every morning from Monday to Friday, so I'm available in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends. We can discuss any requests. I know how difficult it is to find someone to leave your best friend with, I promise not only to take care of your pet as if it were my own but also to let it meet this crazy human and give it all the love I have saved up.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve had many years of hands-on experience looking after dogs, including managing daily routines, exercise, play, socialisation and general care. I’ve also been closely involved in a dog’s professional training, which gave me valuable practical knowledge about canine behaviour, communication, boundaries, basic obedience and positive reinforcement. This experience taught me how important patience, consistency and calm communication are when caring for dogs. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs and larger breeds, and I enjoy keeping dogs active and mentally stimulated. I also understand that every dog has a different personality and needs, so I always adapt my approach to their individual temperament, energy level and routine. I know how important it is to feel confident when leaving your dog with someone else. I treat every dog in my care with patience, attention and affection, while following their usual routine and their owner’s instructions as closely as possible. My goal is simple: for every dog to feel safe, happy and comfortable while they’re in my care. I study English Monday to Friday from 3:45pm to 5pm, so I’m available before and after my classes. I’m also very flexible on weekends and can adapt to different pet care schedules depending on the service needed. I provide a safe, calm and caring environment for pets. I always follow the owner’s instructions and keep their normal routine as much as possible. I’m attentive to their needs and make sure they receive plenty of care, exercise and companionship.

About: Hi, my name is Jossan, from Brazil. I'm a reliable and caring pet sitter based in Dublin. I've had dogs my entire life, so being around animals feels completely natural to me. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets, whether it's going for walks, playing, feeding them, or simply keeping them company while you're away. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, and I'll always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'm responsible, patient, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Your furry friend will receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. I look forward to meeting you and your pet and making sure they have a happy, stress-free experience while you're away. I'm good on giving medication as well. My goal is not only to care for your pet but also to give you complete peace of mind while you're away, knowing they're in safe and loving hands. I recently moved to Dublin and have plenty of free time to make your life easier while also giving your pet some quality time. I love all kind of animals 🥰 I will play a lot with your pet and give it all the attention it deserves, including a walk to the park. Picking up poop is among my responsibilities.

Elisa is so kind and considerate. I left it until the 11th hour to arrange for a cat sitter and she stepped up wholeheartedly with no fuss. The whole process was very easy. I got updates every day and pictures too. Bowls were cleaned and replenished and Elisa waited patiently if Misu was out adventuring. Would 💯 recommend Elisa. Huge thanks to her for putting our minds at ease while we were away.

Francisca was wonderful and out two cats were well looked after. She sent daily photos and videos so we could see the cats were doing fine while we were away. Both cats were very comfortable around her and she even managed to get some love from Mog, who is very nervous around everybody. Francisca is very pleasant and helpful to customers, and I am very happy to recommend her to others.

Adele is incredible! She's so great with the cats, you can tell she genuinely loves looking after them. We left our two cats in her care for two drop in visits a day. Adele gave us pictures and videos from every visit she did and clarified with us beforehand what type of updates we'd like. It was obvious our cats really took to her and we came back to two happy cats. I wouldn't hesitate to use Adele services again and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Dublin on Rover is €17.25 per Visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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

As of September 2026, there are 275 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Dublin. Enter your Eircode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Dublin pet parents with similar pet households.

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 .

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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters 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, 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.
