My name is Femke and I'm an active person who enjoys going on walks. I have 2 French bulldogs who I love to spoil with treats, cuddles and play time! I also occasionally help friends and family out too by looking after their dogs. They are a variety of breeds, ages, energy levels and appetite! (Beagle, Golden Retriever &amp; Cavachon)
Since I have 2 dogs myself, I know what it's like when life gets in the way and you have to leave your furry friend at home for a bit longer than you'd like.
I want to offer this walking/check-in service with Pawshake to help other pet owners out so that they can continue to do what they love without their pet missing out on the love and attention they deserve. I'm committed to looking after your pet as if they are my own.
I can offer to meet your dog with my dogs if they would like a friend or on my own if they are nervous around other dogs.

Hi there. My name is Dearbhla and my full time job is as a Psychological Services Project Coordinator and I am also a trainee psychotherapist. I am from Mayo originally and have left behind two gorgeous girls (doggies) who I miss dearly (don't worry they live with my Mum) and regularly head home to visit them to get my doggie fix at the weekends.
&nbsp;I love walking and it is my main form of exercise in the evenings. I would regularly walk my dogs at home and thought I could help someone up in Dublin who may be very busy in the evenings and are unable to get out to walk their dogs. If my dogs are anything to go by, their walk is their absolute favourite time of the day and are very restless if they don't get outside for their walkies and sniffing time. I have plenty experience and love all dogs however my preferance would be dogs who don't have any known behavioural issues, fairly socialised and don't mind meeting other dogs while out on their walks. I would be available Monday-Thursday in the evenings after 5om and some weekend mornings (calendar will be updated accordingly).
Services:
Dog Waking - I am located in the Rathfarnham area but happy to travel (within reason) around the South Dublin area. There are plenty of gorgeous routes around the Rathfarnham area to go walking. However my service will involve driving to your home and walking your dogs from there for one hour. I'll always suss out the nicest route for your dog that is nearby. I work hybrid so walks will be either after 5pm (the days I'm in the office) and I can do a walk between 1-2pm when I'm working from home. 
Pet Sitting - I also offer pet sitting or overnight pet sitting in your home. I know how worrying it can be leaving your pets overnight or for a long period of time during the evening, so I am happy to make sure your pets are looked after and have company. This will include a walk, feeding etc. I have made some appointments available in the calendar however if there is a date in mind that is not available on the calendar, send a message and I'll check availability. 
Please don't hesitate to get in touch and we can arrange an initial meet up to see if I am a suitable fit for you and your beloved pooch.

Hello! My name is Carla, and I have a deep love for animals, especially cats. I have four cats of my own and years of experience rescuing and caring for stray cats in Brazil. This has given me valuable knowledge about feline behavior, socialization, and overall pet care.

My motivation to be a pet sitter comes from my passion for providing animals with love, comfort, and proper care while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy looking after your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own.

I have experience administering medication, ensuring a stress-free environment, and giving pets the affection and attention they need. While I specialize in cats, I am also happy to care for other small pets. For safety reasons, I only accept vaccinated pets into my home.

I look forward to meeting your furry friend and providing them with the best care possible!

Hi my name is Zara! From my personal experience of being a dog owner of a lively Cocker Spaniel and ocasional dog walker, I understand the joy and responsibility that comes with looking after our pets. My dedication to providing attentive and affectionate care remains steadfast. My motivation to serve as a pet sitter and dog walker us fuelled by an authentic love for animals and a genuine desire to enhance their well being. I am committed to developing a bond of trust with pet parents so they can have peace of mind while their dog is being walked. 
While I prioritise safety, I am open and excited to walk all dogs, regardless of breed or size. Trust me with your pets and be assured they will get the same love and attention as if they're my own. I am open to dog walking every day especially in the summer, ensuring your pets get the exercise and attention they need during those warm months! 
My services will mainly include dog walking and home visits! Dog walks will include hikes that could be 1 hour or more or local walks around parks for 30 minutes depending on dog breeds and preferences!

I have seen all scenarios - how to tell if a cat is distressed, how to calm them , helped deliver kittens, plus caring for newborn kittens . I have volunteered with the DSPCA . It is very rewarding watching neglected and maltreated cats blossom and gain confidence with a little patience and tlc 
I worked in the tech industry for over 15 years and am taking some time off to reconnect with my love for animals 
I want to cat sit as I know what it's like to go away for a few days and spend your whole holiday worrying if your kitty is stressed. I want to make is a stress free experience both for you and your cat

I am hoping to look after cats/ kittens only . Can petsit for people in the Rathfarnham, D16 area only 

Hi. I'm a dog lover living in Dublin 16. I have a wonderful 5 year old rescue lurcher/collie who is most definitely the most pampered pooch in Dublin!
I provide a service for both cats and dogs. 
CATS:
I provide home visits to cats while you're either away or at work. I'll ensure that your cat is fed, hydrated and given lots of attention. I'm also happy to clean litter trays. Visits typically last 1 hour and most of it will be spent petting your cat!
I'll send photos and videos during each visit so that you can be reassured that your cat continues to rule the roost!
The cost of a 1 to 1.5 hour cat visit is €25 but this can be adjusted depending on your needs.
DOGS:
As a doggy mum I most definitely understand that dogs are very special members of our families who deserve love, kindness and attention. I would love to help other dog parents out there ensure that their dogs are given attention, have fun, and get the exercise (and cuddles!) they need. In other words, enjoy their day.&nbsp;
I'm happy to provide a service depending on the individual needs of each dog.
For dog walks, I can collect your dog and bring it for a walk on your dog's preferred route. Alternatively - as I have my own transport - I can also take your dog to the secure dog park in Marley Park, during which time they will be strictly supervised.&nbsp;&nbsp;
As the safety of your pet is the most important thing to me, all dog walks will be on a lead, unless in the off-lead dog park.
In addition, all dog walks will be one-on-one, unless you have two dogs in your family and you would like for them to be exercised together. This is to ensure that your dog can be given my full care and attention at all times. Please note that my own dog (lovely as he is!) will not be accompanying me when I walk your dog.
I also provide home visits to dogs, where I will ensure that your dog is fed, hydrated and given all the attention and belly rubs they need.
I am also happy to provide a service whereby I bring your dog to and from their vet appointment.
I know how guilty we all feel when we're away from our dogs. My aim is to give you the assurance that your dog is mentally stimulated and happy while you're not with them. I want them to look forward to seeing me, as they know that it means fun, exercise, and maybe the odd sneaky treat! It's also very important to me that you know that I will look after your dog in the same way that you would.
This means that you can expect photos and videos of your dog while they're with me. I'm also happy to do video calls so you can see your dog in real life!
Costs are €15 to €20 for a 1 - 1.5 hour dog walk (depending on time), and €20 for collection and being brought to the Marley Park dog park. The length of the walk may vary depending on your dog's requirements, and I'll definitely do my best to accommodate you and your dog! House visits are €25 for 1 to 1.5 hours.
My services can be tailored to meet your needs dependent on the situation, so I'm more than happy to get together for a meet and greet. Hope to hear from you soon!



















I'm a devoted pet owner with over 13 years of experience, sharing my home with Goddo, my lovable Pug, and Milú, my spirited orange cat who might just be plotting world domination! Milú, adopted and around 10 years old, adds a unique charm to our household with her feisty personality, always seeking the spotlight.  

I absolutely love taking pets for walks and preparing special meals tailored to their needs. I can take your pet for walks, visit them at home, give them their medication, and even stay at your place if necessary. If your furry friend has any health requirements, rest assured I’m diligent about following them to ensure their well-being. I’ll also make sure your pet has fresh water at all times because I know how important it is to keep them hydrated and happy.  

My experience has taught me that every pet is unique and has its own personality, making each day a new adventure. I truly enjoy the company of animals, creating a nurturing and fun environment. I’m here to provide the care and love your pets deserve while you’re away. Your furry friend will be in great hands!

I’m a dog owner who regularly looks after two family hounds, one Kerry Blue and one Cocker Spaniel. However, given that I am away from the family home for the next two months, I have plenty of free time, so would love to help out to help finance my next year in college and some travel plans, all while expanding my network of canine chums. I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and I just love spending time with them, as often they are better company than any people could be! If I could add your dog to my summer routine, I would be thrilled and I promise to care for them as if they were my own!
I will be based in the Terenure area for the next couple of months, so I am very happy to go anywhere in the area (even if not completely adjacent) to help! My main service would be dog walking, and I should be available from morning until evening, whenever you are in need of my service. I am an experienced dog walker and love heading to parks to wander around, so it would be great to have a dog with me for company! Whether your dog needs a short stroll or a longer walk, I am happy to cater for whatever his/her exercise needs are, no problem at all.
I would also be very happy to provide home visits/house sitting services, always being respectful of your property and leaving no trace behind me. Whether you would like me to drop in for a couple of hours, or spend the whole working day with your pet, I would be very happy to do either or anything in between, and of course if plants or post needs taking care of I can do that as well.
Overall, if you choose me to look after your beloved pet, whether to go on a walk or keep company during the day, I would be more than happy to assist, and will do everything I can to keep your dog happy! As I say, I have lots of free time coming up, so whenever I can be of use, I would be delighted to help, and I look forward to hearing from you. Please do not hesistate to contact me if you have any more questions or require any more information! Have a wonderful day!
