About: I would rescue animals such as dogs and cats and foster them to new homes, as well as growing up surrounded by pets. I take a lot of pride in keeping an eye on animals, going as far as buying and using GPS trackers for my own animals. I work part time currently until summer hours kick in, meaning I have plenty of time during weekdays and evenings to visit furry friends, bring them for walks, take them out for toilet runs and play with them. In my own house we have a walled yard with a gate that’s always closed shut for the dogs, my cats have tracking GPS collars so we are able to monitor their locations 24/7 but have a curfew of 6 pm at the latest. At others houses I ensure any possible exits are closed off and will stay with the animal at all times.

About: Kelly and Mics doggy hotel. I set up this account as I lost my best friend, a fluffy choc lab a few years ago, and miss her company dearly. We pet sit a lot for friends and family and figured why not do this since the joy of having fluffy friends around has been comforting. I live with my wonderful partner Mic so your dogs would be getting double the love and double the cuddles here in our home. I work remotely and have the opportunity to be around pets daily for care and multiple walks. It also will be lovely for me to have some company during the Day. I have a big back garden for dogs to play, and it is completely fenced so very secure. I have a lovely greenway at the front of my home for quick walks. There is also a gorgeous nature walk beside my home, which dogs can enjoy sniff around and have a long walk. I enjoy walks in the woods and beaches and living in wicklow these are easily accessible by car or foot. I own a 3 bedroom home with plenty of spaces for dogs to chill. They'd be sleeping in the sitting room, spare bedrooms or kitchen. Whichever they feel most comfortable, I find the dogs I've cared for prefer the sitting room to sleep on the couch. Any questions please feel free to send me a message. We both have quite flexible work hours and have been pet sitting for family and friends for many years. Our lifestyle fits into pet care easily as we have the availability to be at home for the Day. I care for pets in my home like I have cared for all my own pets over the years. Walking, feeding, playing and being their companion.

About: I cannot remember not having a pet at my house. Dogs have been part of my life since I was born, times when we had 7 at our place. I absolutely love dogs and miss them so much ( I don't have a pet here in Ireland yet!) I love pets in general but specially dogs. I've been around dogs my hole life, my parents even had a pet place in Brazil. I can provide love, food, and a safe environment for the dog. I can also go for walks and give medicines or any special treatment. I have driver's license and can transport it if needed. I have had puppies, adults and old pals. I had hard and easy going dogs. My kids are also passionate about animals and mostly dogs.

About: Hi! I’m Jessica, a veterinary graduate from Brazil with a big heart for animals and a lifelong passion for caring for them. Since childhood, I’ve always been surrounded by pets — dogs, cats, and even farm animals — and that love only grew stronger, leading me to study veterinary medicine. With my background and hands-on experience as a pet parent, I offer trustworthy, affectionate, and knowledgeable care for your beloved companions. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply providing company and cuddles, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I believe every animal deserves personalized attention, so I take the time to understand their routine, personality, and special needs. My goal is to give your pet the same love and care I’d want for my own. For cats, I have everything to make them feel at home — including a litter box and a scratching post, so they can settle in comfortably and feel relaxed from day one. Let’s chat beforehand to make sure your friend gets exactly what they deserve! I provide dedicated pet care every day that I have guests. Each day, I focus on feeding, exercising, and interacting with pets, ensuring they receive both physical activity and mental stimulation. I pay close attention to their individual needs, whether it’s a dog that enjoys walks, a cat that prefers quiet play, or any other pet with special routines. Throughout their stay, I monitor their health, behavior, and well-being, keeping a consistent schedule so every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet in my care. In my home or at a pet owner's home, I make sure the space is secure and pet-friendly, with no hazards and everything they need to feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow each pet’s routine, dietary needs, and preferences closely, and I supervise them during playtime, walks, or any activity to ensure their well-being. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me. I maintain open communication, providing updates, photos, or messages as needed, so owners feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and well-cared-for at all times.

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and have plenty of hands on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up having dogs of my own, so looking after pets and making sure they feel happy, comfortable and well cared for has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have a cat of my own and regularly help care for my grandparents’ cats and dogs, as well as my sister’s dog. I’ve also helped neighbours with pet sitting and looking after their animals when they’ve been away or needed an extra hand. Through this, I’ve had experience caring for different pets with their own personalities, needs and routines. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, keeping pets company and following their usual routines. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and settled when their owners aren’t around, so I always take the time to get to know them and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I’m reliable, patient and attentive, and I’m very happy to follow any specific instructions you have. I’d treat your pet with the same care and affection I give my own. As a secondary school teacher, I have a consistent weekly schedule and plenty of availability outside of school hours. I’m available for dog walking and drop in visits after 4pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, and from 1:30pm onwards on Wednesdays. At weekends, my schedule is much more flexible and I’m available throughout the day for dog walking, pet sitting, drop in visits and longer periods of care. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine wherever possible and can discuss individual needs and timings with you. I also have greater flexibility during school holidays and mid-term breaks. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and individual needs, so I always aim to make their time with me as comfortable and familiar as possible. I’m happy to follow any instructions provided by owners regarding feeding, walks, exercise, playtime and their usual daily routine. When caring for a pet in their own home, I’m very respectful of both the pet’s space and the owner’s home. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, companionship and playtime, as well as regular walks and toilet breaks where needed. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and being well looked after. Safety is really important to me, so I’ll always follow instructions regarding leads, feeding, interactions with other animals and anything else I should be aware of. Most importantly, I’ll treat every pet I look after with the same care, patience and affection I would give my own.

I’ll follow your usual route if preferred, or take them somewhere new for a little adventure. You’ll get updates and cute photos from every walk! 🏠 House Sitting (in your home) Heading away? I can stay with your pet in their home where they feel most relaxed. I’ll keep their routine as normal as possible, and you’ll receive regular photos and updates.

About: I have always loved animals and I am a responsible, caring and patient person. I enjoy spending time with dogs, going for walks, playing and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I pay attention to each dog’s routine and needs, and I will treat your pet with love and care as if they were my own. I currently work part-time, so I still have plenty of time to care for pets and give them lots of attention. During the week, I am available in the mornings until 10 AM and again after 6 PM. On weekends, I am available full-time. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, going for walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while in my care. I currently provide pet care only in the owner’s home, so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and keep their normal routine. I am a very responsible, caring, and trustworthy person, and I truly love spending time with dogs. My own dog is currently in Brazil, which made me miss being around pets even more. I can also take dogs for walks, play with them, give them lots of attention, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away.

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.

Chiara took a great care of my two cats for two days. Cats seem to be happy, no problems. I would definitely recommend Chiara as a pet sitter, and I would book her service again in the future.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Wicklow

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wicklow is €15 per Visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between €10 and €19 per Visit.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the pri ce s hown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 1,108 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across the city of Wicklow. About 83% typically respond to requests within 60 minutes.

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 Wicklow 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 Wicklow 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 74% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 76% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 81% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
