When you have to go away or work long hours, you may worry about leaving your pet home alone. Have you ever wondered “Is there a pet or dog sitter in Dalkey that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Dalkey to provide drop in visits and other services. This means a pet sitter will come and visit your pet at a time you both agree on and provide lots of love and personal attention. This can include playtime in the backyard, a walk to the local park, or just some cuddle time. Our pet carers can also administer medication, give food, and refresh the water bowl.

In home pet sitting services are a great way to break up the day and enrich it for your pet. Pawshake pet sitters have extensive experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and more. If you have multiple pets, home visits are a great option to ensure that they all get a visit and lots of attention during the day.

Drop in visits are the least stressful option for your pet because your pet can stay in their favourite environment – their own home in Dalkey. Their surroundings will be familiar and our loving and passionate Pawshake sitter will spoil them each day. Our sitters will treat your home with respect and are flexible with timing, requests and durations. All this can be discussed before you make a home visit booking.

Pet boarding is a great option for when you are away for a few days and your pet needs overnight care. Unlike pet hotels, Pawshake pet boarding allows you to arrange a personalised daily routine for your pet, whether this be extra belly rubs, playtime or 24 hour supervision. Your pet will stay with the pet sitter in a cosy home environment, rather than a large, impersonal pet hotel.  

So whether you need just one day, a week or even a month, you’ll be able to find an experienced pet or dog carer to accommodate you and your pet’s needs in Dalkey. The best part is that your Pawshake pet sitter is from your local neighbourhood, so they will be familiar with the area.

Our pet carers also have a range of experiences which include puppies, seniors, nervous pets and dog training. So if your pet has special requirements, you’ll be sure to find a pet sitter that is a good match for you.

Your pet’s safety and welfare is a big priority for us, which is why all of our Pawshake pet sitters undergo a strict vetting process by our trust and safety team. At Pawshake, we understand that you might feel a little uneasy allowing a pet sitter to enter your home or arranging pet boarding at their place. This is why Pawshake pet sitters also have reviews from other pet parents that are publicly available on their profile for you to read.

Each pet sitting home visit and pet boarding booking made through Pawshake is covered by the Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer support 7 days a week and more. Rest easy knowing that your pets will be well looked after by one of our expert pet carers in Dalkey.

petSitting

I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced sitter who knows just how important it is to feel confident that your pets are safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I share my home with two playful dachshunds, so I’m very familiar with the fun personalities and unique quirks that dogs can have. Living with them has taught me patience, consistency, and the joy of making sure each dog feels loved and secure.
I understand that every dog is different. Some love long walks and endless games of fetch, while others simply enjoy curling up with a warm blanket and good company. I take the time to follow your pup’s usual routine, whether that’s walks, mealtimes, or bedtime cuddles, so they feel comfortable and settled.
Communication is important, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages, giving you peace of mind that your dog is relaxed and happy. When your pup is with me, they’ll be treated just like family.&nbsp;

My services include walking dogs, day visits and overnight stays at your home.

Hi! I’m Anushka!! I'm the kind of person who talks to dogs like they’re people and believes every walk deserves a mini adventure. I grew up around pets and have always been that friend who happily volunteers for walk duty, cuddle duty, and the occasional “please tire my dog out” mission.
My motivation to be a pet sitter is simple: animals bring out the calmest, most joyful version of me. Whether it’s keeping your dog active and social or giving them quiet company at home, I love making sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away.
I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all temperaments, from high-energy pups to older pets who prefer gentle company. I’m attentive, reliable, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal’s quirks and routines.
For everyone’s safety, I only take vaccinated pets into my home. Your pets will be in loving, responsible hands and yes, I’m always up for a game of fetch and a heart-to-heart.

My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where dogs feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away.

Previous Experience:

Hi! I'm Elis, a Brazilian animal lover living in Dun Laoghaire. I’ve had pets my whole life—dogs, cats, and even farm animals from my grandfather’s farm back in Brazil. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my routine, and it's something I truly enjoy.
Over the years, I’ve helped friends, neighbors, and housemates by walking their dogs, feeding their pets, and making sure they feel safe and loved when their owners are away. I currently offer home visits, dog walking, fun playtime, and overnight stays at the owner's home (if nearby).

I’ve loved dogs my entire life, drawn to their pure, loyal, and genuine nature. Growing up, I was always surrounded by dogs, and the unique bond I formed with them has left a lasting impact on me. Since moving to Ireland, I couldn't bring my beloved dogs, and I genuinely miss the unconditional love and joy they brought into my daily life. This longing has inspired me to become a pet sitter, allowing me to share my affection with other pets while providing them with the care and attention they deserve.

In terms of experience, I’ve spent years caring for my own dogs, learning to meet their emotional and physical needs with dedication. I’m attentive, responsible, and treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe and happy. Additionally, I prioritize the well-being of all animals, so I only accept vaccinated pets to keep everyone in my care safe and healthy.

If you're looking for someone who will treat your pup like family, then look no further. I'm here to walk and have fun with your dogs. Can't wait to meet you and your awesome pup!

I have been around dogs my entire life, and frequently look after dogs for anything from a few hours to several months. I am happy to work with you to develop a varied walk/play/activity routine that will benefit your animal and allow him or her to explore different routes around the area. My aunt was an award winning dog-trainer and I spent much time learning from her.&nbsp;&nbsp;
I love animals and can assure you that your friend will be in safe hands. I have plenty of references and am happy to deal with dogs of any size and type. I have provided dog-sitting and kennelling services in Dublin, Wicklow, Wexford and Cork, at my own home and staying at owner's homes while they travelled. I provide daily updates and photos/videos (and video calls if asked) to keep you in contact with your canine friends.
I have experience with troubled / difficult dogs and have a strong track record of working with animals with temperamental or discipline challenges.&nbsp;&nbsp;
My last dog died in 2018 and due to living in houseshares/apartments since then I have yet to adopt a new dog. So this means I have more energy to devote to other dogs.&nbsp;
Location: I am beside the People's Park in Dun Laoghaire, there are amazing options for beaches, parks, coastal and inland walks, places to play and run.&nbsp;
