About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life, and my mum is a vet specialising in animal behaviour, so I learned a lot from her. I fully raised my own dog for 8 years, with my mum's guidance, and took him everywhere with me, including trips around Poland and various classes. I've also helped friends train their dogs and teach them tricks. Right now I live with two dogs and help with their care, training, play and exercise. I'm also very comfortable with cats of all ages, including seniors and cats on medication. I work under 30 hours per week, so I have plenty of time for pets. I'm free on weekdays between 9:30 and 12:00 and again after 16:00, and I'm also available on weekends. I'm happy to be flexible and adjust visits to your pet's routine. I always make sure your pet feels safe and relaxed: I watch for signs of stress, discomfort or pain and adjust to their needs. I stick to the owner's routine for feeding, walks and medication, keep the home tidy, and send regular photo updates. If anything seems wrong, I contact the owner and, if needed, the vet right away (I don't own a car, but I have a driving licence, 5 years of driving experience and drive daily for work, so I can safely transport pets).

About: I’ve had pets all my life, and that has taught me to treat them as my best friends. I've worked as a pet sitter in Brazil and I’ve been working with, in Dublin for 2 years. I speak English fluently and I've got all the skills to make sure pet owners have a smooth and easy-going experience. I think the most important thing for a good pet sitter is to love animals and understand their individual needs. They need our care and attention, and should be treated as our best friends. Over the last 2 years working as a pet sitter in Dublin, most of the animals I looked after were cats. I get on very well with them and know how to respect each one’s temperament and personality; I believe this is important when it comes to cats. I'm pretty flexible, so we can figure out the best timetable and payment methods that work for you. I’m sure I can be your next permanent pet sitter, making your life as a tutor easier. Roberta I’m pretty flexible, so I prefer to talk about time and everything in advance, to make sure the tutors have a smooth, easygoing experience. I always heard the tutors instructions carefully and adapt all to the needs of each pet. I reckon that each pet has very specific needs, so it’s more important to me to heard the tutor so I can adapt myself to provide an easy and trustworthy experience.

I love animals and will take great care of your dog\cat. I’m currently working part-time however I’m taking some time off. I babysit every Thursday nights however I’m free in the mornings every other day I am fee to dog sit I would firstly make sure the food and water for the pet was full and let the pet out to the bathroom. I love going on walks so I could walk with the pet for 1-2 hours comfortably if the pet was bigger or needed a lot of exercise.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats and caring for them all my life, both at home and with family members.

About: Hi there! I’m a certified veterinarian from Mexico who recently moved to Ireland in June 2026. Back home, my life always revolved around animals—from dogs and cats to rabbits and fish. Right now, my beloved cat is staying with my parents, and because I miss her and the daily joy that pets bring into a home, I decided to join Pawshake. For me, this is not just a job; it is a way to fill my heart while providing the absolute best care for your best friend. 🩺 Professional Veterinary Background I have always been deeply committed to animal welfare, which led me to study Veterinary Medicine. I graduated in 2020, and since then, I have worked continuously in veterinary hospitals and clinics. What this means for your pet: I have extensive experience in animal health, monitoring behavior, and recognizing subtle signs of stress or discomfort. Specialized Care: If your pet is a senior, has chronic medical conditions, or requires specific medication (oral, injections, etc.), they will be in the safest hands possible. I am fully trained to handle medical needs with the utmost gentleness and precision. 🕊️ My Lifelong Bond with Dogs Throughout my life, I have given my heart to four beautiful dogs, most of whom were rescued from the streets. They taught me everything I know about unconditional love, patience, and senior pet care: Pirata: A beautiful French Poodle mix who was gifted to me by my grandfather when I was just 3 years old; he lived a long, happy life until the age of 18. Buba: A sweet Labrador who was with us until she was 12. Dokho: A brave companion who lived to be 15, whom I lovingly cared for through his heart and liver failure. Pam: A Labrador who completely changed my life and passed away two years ago at age 12 due to chronic kidney disease. Losing Pam was heartbreaking, and because I knew I wanted to travel and explore the world, I chose not to get another dog of my own until I fully settle down. Caring for your pet will truly bring that missing joy back into my life. 🏡 What I Offer I will treat your pet exactly as if they were my own—with unconditional love, respect, and deep professional attention. Whether it is a high-energy walk, keeping up with their strict feeding schedules, or simply providing a calm, affectionate presence so they don't feel lonely, I am here for them. Since I am highly organized and communicative, you can expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your furry family member is being looked after by a professional who genuinely cares. I can't wait to meet your pet and give them a home away from home! Please feel free to reach out with any questions or special requirements. 🐕✨ My weekly routine is highly structured and predictable, making it easy to provide consistent, quality care. I study in the mornings, which keeps my schedule very stable. Once my classes are over, I organize my time so that I have my afternoons completely free to be at home, relaxing and keeping the pets company. Since I love exercising and going for daily walks, I absolutely enjoy incorporating dog walks into my active routine—it's the perfect match! This way, I can ensure the dogs get plenty of outdoor exercise and fun, while still enjoying a calm, attentive, and cozy environment once we are back home. In my home: I live in a cozy, smaller apartment, so I make sure to compensate for the space by keeping the dogs active outdoors. If your pet stays with me, I will adjust my schedule to take them out for more frequent walks and exercise. This way, they can burn off their energy outside and enjoy a calm, relaxed, and comfortable environment once we are back home. In the owner's home: If you prefer me to care for your pet in their own home, my absolute priority is to respect and maintain their exact daily routine. I know how important stability is for pets, so I will strictly follow their usual feeding, walking, and playtime schedules. This ensures they feel completely comfortable, safe, and happy in their familiar environment, making your time away as stress-free as possible for them.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since I’m 7 years old. I was always the responsible for feeding them, go walking and etc once I was always passionate about pets. For the last year I have been taking care frequently of my sister’s little sausage, Molly, which is now 1 year old I’m currently working on part-time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your dog! I’m available for boardings during the njght and at weekends and on weekdays anytime between 8am and 3pm. If scheduled in advance, I can also stay overnight for one or few nights :) I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, exercise, medication, and routines. I make sure the home environment is secure by checking doors, gates, and any potential hazards before and after walks.
About: I have a regular job two days per week. Outside of those days, I am available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, both on weekdays and weekends. This gives me the flexibility to adapt my availability to the pet's needs and the owner's schedule. When caring for a pet in the owner's home, I follow the routine they are already familiar with. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning the litter box, playtime, companionship, and monitoring their overall wellbeing. I have two cats of my own, and I understand how important love, attention, and patience are in helping them feel safe and happy. I dedicate time to interacting with each cat according to their personality, whether that means playing, providing companionship, or simply respecting their space. I also have experience caring for cats with special needs and carefully follow any instructions provided by the owner. My goal is to ensure that every cat feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their owner is away.

Cat owners share their Rover experiences - Rush
Lauren was absolutely amazing with our three cats. They have quite a tricky routine, with each cat having different needs, but she picked everything up very quickly despite it being her first time looking after them. She gave each cat the individual attention they needed, asked sensible questions whenever she wanted to clarify something, and kept everything beautifully clean and tidy. Even when Liffey decided to be bold and use the shower as a toilet on a few occasions, Lauren took it completely in her stride! Most importantly, the cats really warmed to her. Milo even wanted Lauren to sit with him while he ate, which says a lot about how safe and comfortable he felt with her. We came home to three happy, well-cared-for cats and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lauren.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Rush on Rover is {{median_grand_total_num.as_currency}} per Visit (as of {{date}}). 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.
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialise in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your Eircode to find a sitter within walking distance in your neighbourhood.
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 Rush pet parents with similar pet households.
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you're booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
