About: I have always had pets of my own and started providing pet sitting services to others at 16 years old. I am passionate about providing as much comfort and reassurance as possible to both pets and their owners, as I know first hand how valuable the peace of mind can be. I was a Veterinary Technician (Nurse) in Canada for 15 years, specializing in critical care, emergencies, feral/timid animal bonding, pet behavioral issues, and rescue efforts like bottle feeding neonatals and handling/containing contagious diseases. While caring for your pet I will check their physical condition and notify you of any possible health concerns found. I do exceptionally well with timid/shy animals and am able to win over their trust quicker than most through gentle patience and proper physical communication. I can manage any medical conditions, chronic conditions, and treatments that can be done at home, as well as properly identify when and if veterinary attention is needed. I am also very comfortable with all exotic pets like birds, reptiles, and rabbits. I will treat your pet like they are my own as I believe all animal life is a blessing. *Unfortunately I am unable to do overnight stays at this time as my own pets have health conditions that require medication and monitoring.* I am self employed and make my own schedule, so my availability is very flexible. I can be available on short notice and do multiple pop-ins a day. I am unable to care for your pets in my own home, but am comfortable monitoring pets in their own homes. I can provide feedings, medications, walks, socialization, and medical treatments as assigned by your veterinarian.

“We couldn’t be more grateful to Lorcán for the wonderful care he gave our dog, Ozzy. From the moment they met, it was clear that Lorcán has a natural way with animals—kind, calm, and attentive. Ozzy can be a bit particular, but he settled in quickly and clearly felt relaxed and happy in Lorcán’s care. Lorcán kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It was lovely to see Ozzy enjoying his walks, snoozing contentedly, and getting plenty of affection. We came home to a very happy, well-looked-after dog—and we’re pretty sure Ozzy was disappointed to see Lorcán go! Highly recommend Lorcán to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and responsible pet sitter. We’ll definitely be asking him again.”

“Zoe looked after my puppy and she was so patient with her! I have a very happy and tired pup. She took her out for 2 walks and kept her entertained during the day. Zoe was also very respectful of our space and we really felt Saor was in safe hands! Would highly recommend Zoe 😁”


About: I love dogs and have owned them my entire life, raising them from puppies. I’ve trained, fed, walked, and bathed them many a time, and always give them lots of love and attention. One of my dogs was an amputee, so I also have experience with disabled dogs (including administering oral medications). As a university student, I am free most days this summer and will also be free several days during term time. I’d love to spend my time walking or watching your dogs! I love playing with and caring for animals, and while I am with your dogs, they will get lots and lots of attention and love.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs ever since I was a kid. As a lifelong cat owner I have often been trusted by friends and neighbors to cat sit. My mom was a dog walker growing up so I spent my summers as a kid walking dogs with my mom, something that I really loved! I am just out of college and looking for full time work which has proven difficult so my schedule is completely open for pet care! I have a fenced in yard which is great for pets. I am very gentle and patient which is important especially around new pets. My number one priority will always be keeping the pet safe!

MY BACKGROUND Hi, this is vikram from India,I am a medical graduate doing my masters in Dublin City University.I have been surrounded by pets for over 10 years, gaining firsthand experience in their care and understanding their needs. Back home in India, I have three dogs and a cat, each of whom I have cared for with love and dedication.Dogs have been an integral part of my life for over a decade, providing me with invaluable experience in their care and understanding their unique behaviors. I’ve fostered several dogs, trained a rescue dog, and cared for my own pet with dedication and love. While studying in Ukraine, I worked as a pet sitter, providing reliable care for a variety of breeds and temperaments. From feeding and exercise routines to training, companionship, and managing special needs, I understand the unique requirements of each dog. With a deep passion for animals and years of hands-on experience, I ensure every pet receives the best care, treating them as if they were my own. ❤️🐾🐶🐱💕 Since you're working on your thesis from home with a flexible schedule, pet care can seamlessly fit into your routine by aligning feeding, walks, and playtime with your study breaks. For example, morning and evening pet tasks (meals, short walks, or litter cleaning) can bookend your workday, while midday play sessions or quick check-ins provide productive breaks. Overnight stays allow you to study while pets rest nearby, and drop-in visits can be scheduled around your writing flow. Your adaptability ensures pets get attentive care without disrupting your academic focus, making it a balanced and rewarding side job "I provide personalized pet care, including feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, grooming, and medication if needed. I ensure a clean, safe environment with love and attention tailored to each pet’s needs. For pet owners’ homes, I also water plants, and follow security protocols while maintaining their pet’s routine."

“Anderson looked after my border collie/kelpie cross for a week very well. He provided ample feedback and no issue dealing with his high energy level. I'm very happy with the service provided and it gave a great peace of mind while I was away. It was a last minute trip and Anderson was quick to respond and very accommodating. I recommend his services without hesitation.”


About: I have had dogs throughout my entire childhood and took care of them until I left home. I started pet sitting when I was a student and couldn’t have one while renting. I have taken care of both dogs and cats. I am now the proud father of two beautiful cats, Broccoli and Nelson, and I would take care of your baby while you’re away with the same love and attention as I give mine. I have experience dealing with sick animals and administering daily treatment, as my dog had a heart problem and, unfortunately, one of my cats is epileptic. Looking forward to meeting you and your baby. Best, Quentin I work from home two to three days a week and my partner is working remotely so there is always someone home to take of our babies and now yours while you are away. We also stay in for most of the weekend. I have two friendly cats and a secure balcony in our apartment. We have several parks just a few minutes from our home. Most of our neighbors have dogs, and we often meet them for walks, so your baby will make lots of new friends.

About: 10+ years experience in keeping dogs safe and happy. Experience with older or sick dogs, and also with puppies. I’ve trained in Doggy First Aid and also have 7 years grooming experience. I’m flexible with my time! I will always do my best to accommodate time around you and your dog/s. I’m here to take the stress off you so you can relax knowing your dog is happy and safe! I prefer to mind the dogs at their own home, as it’s much less stressful for them this way in my experience. New person AND a new environment?

About: I have two dogs back in Brazil — Mel (14 years old) and Lili (8 months) — so I know how to care for both senior dogs and playful puppies. I’ve also looked after dogs and cats for friends and family. I’m calm, patient, and always focused on making pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m available for dog walks in the afternoon during weekends and holidays. For pet sitting at your home or cat boarding at mine, I’m flexible and happy to help whenever needed. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable, whether I’m visiting their home or caring for them at mine. I can host cats only at my home — it’s a quiet, clean space where they can relax and feel secure. Unfortunately, I can’t host dogs at my place, but I’m happy to care for them in their own home, following all instructions and keeping their routine to make them feel safe, happy, and loved.

“Sienna could not have done any more than she did for my dog Bruno. She walked him for hours every day, kept him company and well fed for 8 nights.

Shaelyn F.
“Shae was an amazing pet sitter! Her background makes her very knowledgeable and confident in her handling of all of my pets. One of my cats is diabetic and she handled her injections and glucose readings with ease. We were relaxed during our travels knowing she would communicate if any issues arose and that she knew who our vet was should the worst happen. I encourage anyone else to have their pets under her attention and care as it will help ease the stress of leaving the fur family for any amount of time!”

Katelyn B.
“Dogs have been a part of Katelyn's life since birth. As an animal lover; patience, attentiveness, kindness and compassion are only a few in their repertoire of skills. Their handling of dogs comes naturally; they are very warm and loving. Katelyn's work ethic is exceptional, they are no stranger to hard work and very responsible. Any dog would be a lucky dog in Katelyn's care.”
