“Shelley was fantastic taking care of our animals while we were away. She went above and beyond our expectations and provided tons of updates. The pets were all very happy and well cared for, and the house was nice and tidy when we returned home. We will definitely be booking her again when we need a sitter!”

“Margarita is one of the best dog sitters! She loved on our pups and was wonderful with communication. We feel so lucky we have Margarita in the area. Will be booking her again soon!”

“Yelena was absolutely wonderful! She responded quickly and was able to accommodate us last minute to watch our fur-babies, which we really appreciated. Throughout the day, she sent us pictures and updates, giving us peace of mind that they were happy and well cared for. She also treated our home with the utmost respect and was such a pleasure to have in our home. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter and would definitely recommend Yelena to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable. We will absolutely be using her again! 🐾❤️”

I participate in local events, fundraising and Hound Around Town monthly. I have since expanded my efforts with Husky Haven of Florida as a transport for rescues. I’ve worked at Disney’s pet resort & dog daycare in downtown Orlando. 💯 My base rate listed on my profile covers standard, high-quality care (feeding, potty breaks, and companionship). Since I am a certified dog trainer, the context described above is offered as an active Training Add-On Package for an extra $15 per day. Just be sure to brief me in your contact message and we can discuss together further in detail. With dog training as my core, and having an Executive Assistant professional background of over 20 years, calendar maintenance comes natural and my availability is easily workable around varying schedules. If I’m not at the dog park or training, I can be available for services as necessary. I focus on science-backed methods that are mindful and effective, while integrating enrichment, affection, stimulation (both mentally and physically), rest breaks, sniffy walks, play time and cuddles. I prioritize the pet parents requests and instructions, aligned with fulfillment that meets the dog’s foundational needs.

“Danielle was great with the pups. They really seemed to enjoy her company and reacted well to her, especially our more nervous dog. She has great dog energy. She is top-notch and we will use her if she is available for our next trip.”


“Glorienid was so accommodating and stepped in to care for Mani after another sitter canceled my booking. I really appreciated her being there when I needed her, and Mani absolutely loves her! Knowing he was happy and well cared for gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I’ve already booked her again for my next trip. Thank you, Glorienid!”

About: I was raised with dogs & cats my entire life, and even helped train a few. I have experience in raising puppies and younger pets, but wouldn't prefer to take care of any too little. Even though I don't currently own any, I have a lot of experience from previous pets and taking care of other people's dogs through a side-gigs and friends! I would love to meet your animals and take care of them. Their happiness and well-being means the most. I currently attend college part-time and work full-time, but I work with total flexibility, so I have tons of free time. I'm free any weekday minus Monday and Tuesday (varies week by week), and free almost every weekend. I have a ton of time to care for your pets! :) Regardless of where I'll be taking care of your pet(s), I can ensure that nothing will stay messy! Whether the pet needs to take any medication, needs any variations in feeding times, needs to be let out/walked at a certain time, etc, I can certainly guarantee that nothing will be left behind. You can always feel free to leave specific instructions regarding the house or place at any given time!

“Adriana did a great job with our pack. She arrived timely, spent most if not all of her days while we were gone at the house with them. It rained most of our time away so they were cooped up inside and we came home to a normal house so she found a way to keep them engaged and go out in the rain to potty. For at least one of them that isn't an easy task. She communicated daily with photos and updates and responded promptly to our messages. We came home to 3 healthy and happy dogs.”

About: I have always grown up with pets and love everything about animals and believe need to be loved and cared for just like humans. I am a dog groomer so I am familiar with being around dogs all day, their behavior, their anatomy, and how to treat an injury if it were to occur. I also live by the 5 C’s, Communication,Compassion, Consistency, Commitment, and Credibility. So I think it’s super important to build bond with the animals and the parents and be truthful and transparent if something was to go wrong ! I work a part time job 3 days of the week, So my schedule is very flexible and open. I don’t do much of anything on my days off so being able to pet sit is the ideal plans ! I have a fenced yard and 4 pups of my own to keep your company if needed, I would also be able to separate on the other side of the house if you or the dog is not comfortable around others. If we were to be in your own home sticking to their routine and what they like to do is most comfortable for them and me !
“We met Lindsey and right away we had a great feeling about leaving our pets and house with her. She was very thorough and asked a lot of questions to make sure she can give our cats the proper attention. Our one cat is on Prozac and needs his pill daily. She had no problem giving him his medication. Lindsey sent daily pictures and a nice note when she left after staying for a week. I would definitely trust and recommend for any of our pet’s needs.”

Lifetime pet family, we have guinea pigs, hamsters and every kind of dog and cat. I always helped neighbors when the needed pet care as well as years of volunteer work in shelters. Pets are family.

“I booked JaRavia at the last minute, and she was incredibly flexible with scheduling a meet-and-greet. During the boarding, she was patient and understanding with my shy dog, Bear, who can be a bit distant. She checked in frequently, and by the end of the visit, Bear had started to trust her. I highly recommend JaRavia for her kindness and love of animals!”

Ava is fantastic, we've had her watch our home and fur babies multiple times now and can't say enough good things about her services. Kind, respectful, friendly are just a few of the words that come to mind . . . we feel at ease on holiday knowing she's in our home!

We chose Marlene to care for our pup while we were away for the weekend, and she was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of her and kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, which gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our trip without worrying. It was clear she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

I can’t say enough good things about Delanie. She went above and beyond in every way. From the moment we booked, communication was effortless, updates were thoughtful, and the level of care she gave Oliver and Sophie was exceptional. I came home to a happy, relaxed fur babies. Absolutely perfect, thank you Delanie for everything!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Killarney is $49 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $71 per night. 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 price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 3,061 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Killarney. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Killarney walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Killarney maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Killarney choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program 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.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 veterinarian. 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 authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their 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 have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have 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 are 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 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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 reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
