Information Aine P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any additional needs/care required. I like to think of being pet-centred as each pet has different needs. I have experience working with pets that are blind, have poor mobility, senior, social anxiety etc.

A typical day

Pets are an excellent incentive to be active. I am somebody who enjoys exercise, being outdoors and playing games as it is so this is usually a fun task. But I will plan my sitting days around the dog in question so if they need more chill down time I am happy to provide. Some activities can include; Going for a walk. Going for a run. Playing fetch in Queen Street Gardens (secured). Going into nature for a good sniff. Playing with indoor toys. Going to the beach. Couch and cuddles. Hikes/hills. Bed privileges (if appropriate). Going to the park to socialize with other pets (if appropriate).

Pet care experience

Growing up on a farm I have cared for animals and pets most of my life. The majority of experience is with dogs and cats however I have also experience looking after various farm animals/pets. Dogs: At the moment it's mostly dogs (but still open to other animals!). I have looked after lots of dogs during my time in the city here - on a formal and informal basis. I absolutely love dogs and spending time with them is a joy for me. I ensure they don't have too much time alone - especially on their first stay - as want them to see my home as a place of comfort & something to look forward to! I love getting to know a dog's favourite activity and seeing where they like to explore - feel free to share these facts during their stay :) Ps they do get couch / bed privileges here if that's something they are allowed...

Aine was great! Hector seemed to have a lovely time and was out and about on walks a lot throughout the day. Aine was also very flexible with me when I was later to come and collect Hector than originally planned, so I was really appreciative of that. I would definitely trust Aine looking after Hector again.

Orla had a fantastic stay with Aine. It was like a home from home - she got lots of walks and stimulation and the level of care was outstanding. I appreciated the updates and photos too. THANKS from me and Orla ❤️

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
