“We couldn’t have been happier leaving Ralph with Emma and Chris. They made us feel very comfortable with their set up and we loved receiving pictures of Ralph enjoying his stay. Ralph was clearly very well looked after. Emma and Chris were also extremely flexible which is very appreciated after a travel day. Thanks again!”

“Our pup Kiwi was really well looked after. Fiona sent regular updates and it was very reassuring to have met her beforehand and let Kiwi get a sniff about the new environment. We would highly recommend Fiona, and she'll be top of the list for our next trip away.”

“💯 if it was possible to give 10 stars we would. Cannot recommend Niall and Henrique highly enough. Coco had an absolute ball on her overnight stay. Regular updates and photos to let us know what she was up to. Will definitely be booking Coco in for another stay! Thank you!! 🥰🥰🐾🐾”

“Winnie had an amazing time at Maeve’a house with her golden retriever, Wrigley. Maeve kept me updated on how Winnie was doing (including pictures and videos!) and so I was more than reassured that she was in good hands, and she looked so happy and content! Thank you again Maeve for looking after Winnie, and at such short notice. Would 100% use Maeve again for future bookings.”

“Our Labrador Belle had a fantastic stay with Simon. Simon was really Interested in learning about Belle before her stay. We felt so relaxed on holidays knowing she would be so well cared for. We had very regular updates. Belle is very energetic, needs a lot of exercise and can be strong on the lead and this was no problem for Simon. He really does treat your dog like they are his own. We would highly recommend!”

“Parker loves his stays with Leah and Bella, always comes home with his tired and contented smile. Updates are always great and you can see him having fun on his walks and park runs”

“Anabela was absolutely amazing with Douglas, she was so patient with him and the updates on Douglas every single day along with photos made me feel more relaxed knowing he was having the best time with her & her family! I would definitely recommend Anabela. Couldn’t thank her enough for looking after Douglas x”

“Chelsea was just amazing. Our dog was so well cared for and he was right at home instantly. We got updates every single day which put us at complete ease. We will definitely be booking Chelsea again. I can’t recommend her enough!”

“We cannot recommend Nicole highly enough! She cared for our Labradoodle, Rizzo, for a full week while we were away getting married, and she was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. Rizzo has never stayed with anyone other than family, so we were naturally a bit anxious about leaving her with someone new - especially because she’s such a clingy, people-oriented dog. Nicole completely put us at ease: she arranged a few meet-ups beforehand so Rizzo could get to know her and her lovely dog Fiadh, and by the time we left it already felt like they were friends. Throughout the week Nicole sent daily photos and updates - Rizzo looked so happy in every single picture! She even dressed Rizzo up for our wedding day, which was such a thoughtful touch and meant the world to us. Nicole kept Rizzo’s routine too, taking her to all her favourite walking spots like Ormeau Park and stopping at the usual cafés so she felt at home. On top of all that, Nicole is just a lovely person: warm, friendly, and so easy to communicate with. It’s clear she genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. I will 100% be booking Rizzo in with Nicole again in future - and you should too! Thank you, Nicole - you’re the best!”

“Holly is an excellent dog sitter; she is just lovely and on first meeting you would know she loves dogs. Wilbur had a great time staying at her house and Holly kept us updated with lots of very happy dog photos. I'd highly recommend Holly, she took great care of Wilbur & was super communicating with us throughout. Thank you so much Holly! 😀”

“Daisy was so lovely and warm to my girl Phoebe who is unfortunately gone blind so I was a little more apprehensive leaving her with anyone. But daisy keep me regularly updated and treated Phoebe as her own, she has such a lovely gentle personality, and I would be happy to have Phoebe stay with daisy again regularly”

“Sarah was wonderful with Milo and I felt very comfortable leaving him with her. It was like a mini staycation for him with lots of walks and cuddles and we were updated regularly.”

“Paul had our dog for 1 week, Paul was absolutely amazing. Very professional & Kept us updated daily and send brilliant pics. Highly recommend! Thanks again Paul I will definitely be rebooking :):)”

About: Originally from Kerry, my affinity for animals, especially dogs, has been a cornerstone of my life. I've forged a deep connection with our canine companions. From my earliest memories, I've embraced the responsibility of caring for them, drawing upon my innate understanding of their needs and behaviors. This lifelong bond has instilled in me a profound love and respect for animals, shaping my character as a nurturing and empathetic caregiver. Currently have a very flexible schedule so very able to mind dogs when required. Thoroughly enjoy spending time with dogs and cats. Very good at judging their emotions. Have a fenced in Yard, can crate if crate is provided. You can leave them with me while you work or go somewhere or I can pick then up depending on location and time.
“Rocky had a great time and was really well looked after during his stay. Lots of good walks and Natalie sent loads of great photos to let us know how he was getting on. Would definitely recommend.”

“Eleonora is a lovely person! She is very caring and loves dogs. Bowie was in good hands with Eleonora. She kept me updated daily with pictures and messages. I would absolutely use her services again and would recommend her to anyone.”

“Sandra and her partner were amazing, sent lots of photos and updates that kept us reassured and showed us that our dogs were having a great time. Would definitely recommend and I would have no problems whatsoever leaving my 2 dogs with again”


“Elaine and her family provided brilliant care for our dog Boo who clearly loved his stay. Elaine provided us with lots of updates and photos and we felt completely comfortable that Boo was having his own little holiday at the same time we were as well. We would certainly recommend Elaine for dog sitting and will definitely be taking Boo back to stay again. Richard & Susan”

We left Boo with Elaine and her family for a second time for 4 nights just now. Once again he was really well looked after and had a great time. We received regular messages & photos and felt reassured from the very start that he was in good hands. We will definitely take Boo to stay again when we need a dog sitter. Richard

I couldn't recommend Niamh enough! I left my two dogs with her, and she took such amazing care of them. As a first time Rover user, I was very anxious, but I felt completely at ease from the minute I dropped them off. You can really tell Niamh has a genuine love for dogs. Thank you so much for looking after my babies ❤️❤️❤️

Amazing experience! Lovely couple they took great care of my dog Bella while I was on holiday. She was happy, well looked after, and I got regular updates which really reassured me. I would definitely recommend them and will be using them again. Thank you so much!🐾

Aisling and Beth were fantastic with our two dogs, Polly and Riley. We had daily updates with lots of pics of fun and snuggles. The girls were obviously dog lovers which eased our minds greatly when dropping them off. We will definitely use them again in the future.

As always Eliza had a ball! Nicole and Ronan sent plenty of updates. They really go above and beyond, always taking Eliza on big walks and to dog friendly cafes. I can't thank them enough. We love leaving Eliza in their care! Eliza literally runs in the door to them, and of course her pal Fiadh, they are great company for one another!

I am so grateful to Sarah and her partner for taking care of my Finley. By all the photos I got while I was away, I could see he was well cared for and happy. I got updates nearly every day and I could see he was in very good capable hands. Most importantly he came back to me happy. Absolutely excellent sitters, I felt that Finley was in the most caring environment after myself. Will definitely be using Sarah's services again if the need ever arises again.
