About: I have experience with both young and senior dogs, including basic training for puppies (like reinforcing good habits) and gentle, patient care for older animals who may need slower walks or extra support. I’m also happy to stick closely to any routines you already have in place, whether that’s feeding schedules, exercise, or specific care instructions.

About: I grew up on a farm in Portugal surrounded by animals since the day I was born. My father is a vet, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I learned early how to handle animals with love, confidence and responsibility. Back in Portugal, I was part of an animal rescue institution where I helped save abandoned animals, cared for them at home, and found responsible new owners. Since moving to Ireland, I’ve continued looking after pets — from minding my friends’ cats to taking daily care of my boyfriend’s two dogs, which I walk, feed, play with and treat like my own. Animals are truly my comfort place, and I bring years of real, hands-on experience with pets of all kinds. I work from home, which means your pet will have company and attention throughout the entire day. I can easily fit walks, playtime and feeding into my routine. I’m available for boarding on weekends and most weekdays, and I’m very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first with me. I live in a clean, warm and tidy home where every animal is treated like family. I have a fully fenced garden where dogs can play safely, as well as an outdoor kennel for pets who prefer fresh air or need their own space.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or toilet breaks occurred, for doggy day care, home visits, and dog walking services. You can also message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available by email or chat if you have concerns.
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 Rylane 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Rylane choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into your regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
