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 Dublin that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Dublin 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 Dublin. 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 Dublin. 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 Dublin.

Hi, my name is Fabio I'm 21 years old 
I'm from São Paulo, Brazil and I moved to Dublin to study English.
I love animals in general, they can feel our emotions and help us to keep our happiness all time when we are at home, I have a Yorkshire in brazil, I love and I miss him so much️
Expect timely updates and photos that will put your mind at ease while you're away, knowing that your pets are receiving the utmost care and attention.
Whether you're away on a vacation, stuck at work, or need an extra hand to help with your pet's needs, I'm here to make sure your pets feel loved, cherished, and well-cared for. Trust their unwavering commitment, genuine affection, and expertise to provide an exceptional pet care experience that will leave your pets wagging their tails or purring with contentment.
Communication and transparency you can expect. I believe in keeping pet parents informed about their furry companions' activities, moods, and any noteworthy developments.

Have a nice day ️

My name is Talita, I'm 37 years old, and I've been residing in Dublin for over 7 years. In Dun Laoghaire, I mostly focus on customer service and logistics. I've been living alone for a few years in what would be considered a "spacious two-room (bathroom and the rest) studio", given the housing situation on the Emerald Isle right now.
I grew up with animals my entire life. I have a great love for animals of all shapes and sizes, and I genuinely miss having dogs nearby. I'm thrilled to be able to support you by taking care of your animals while you're not around. I'll treat and adore your babies as if they were my own.
I am proficient in how to take care of them, including feeding, bathing, cleaning their cages or litter boxes, taking them for walks (I like all sorts, from little strolls around the neighbourhood to intense adventures in the woods), and even giving them oral medication if required. I've had my own pets throughout the years, so I have expertise in pet care.
When caring for dogs, I think it's crucial to consider their unique personalities and preferences.
My present situation allows me to do house visits after working hours or on the weekends, dog walking, dog daycare, and house sitting. I can also collect and deliver your four-legged pals on foot, by bus, or train. There isn't much room to maintain the larger ones more comfortably, consequently, only little sizes are selected for bringing them to my residence.
I'm quite adaptable, so please let me know if your dog has particular needs or if there is a certain location you would want your dog to visit.&nbsp;


Hi! I'm Evelyn, 23 years old, Graphic designer and student of English in Dublin. Here I don't have a job in my area so I work in a Deli.I love animals in general, specially dogs. I guess the most special thing about having a relationship with a dog is because you know that they always gonna be there for you doesn't matter the situation, and with no words they can express feeling better than a lot of humans haha.&nbsp;I had a dog, her name was Cristal but unfortunately she died last year (9 years old). I really miss her and I also miss having contact with this wonderful creatures, that's the mainly reason that makes me want to be a dog sitter.I don't have much experience of doing this as a job, but I have already done this for friends and a neighbours in my country.I like sports, adventures and the best part about walking with dogs is because they use to like the same things and encourage us to do exercises.I live near to St Stephen Green, in Dublin 4, Ranelagh, but I accept walks in other places, preference for south of Dublin.- Availability -Monday to Saturday - From 7pmSunday - all day from 12amI have no problems with small or big dogs.

My name is Sayuri, and I am passionate about animals, especially pets. I grew up with several pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and fish, and I have always loved taking care of them. I find it incredibly rewarding to bond with animals and provide them with the love, care, and attention they need to thrive.I have decided to pursue a career as a pet sitter because I want to share my passion for animals with others and make a difference in their lives. As a pet sitter, I would be able to provide pet owners with the peace of mind that their furry or feathered friends are in good hands while they are away. I understand that pets are family members and that leaving them behind can be stressful and worrisome for their owners. That's why I want to be there to provide them with the best possible care and attention.In addition to my love for animals, I have a strong sense of responsibility and dedication. I am committed to providing the best possible care for pets, including feeding them, providing them with fresh water, exercising them, and playing with them. I understand that every pet is unique and has different needs, and I am prepared to cater to those needs and provide customized care.I also have experience working with pets of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I have volunteered at animal shelters, where I have gained hands-on experience with cats, dogs, rabbits, and other animals. I have also taken care of pets for friends and family members, which has given me a deeper understanding of what it takes to be a responsible and caring pet sitter.Overall, my love for animals, my strong sense of responsibility and dedication, and my experience working with pets make me an ideal candidate for a pet sitter position. I am confident that I can provide pets and their owners with the care, attention, and peace of mind they deserve.

Hi, I'm Leda. I 37yo living in Dublin for 2y now and I'm trying to make some extra money for college. I'm planning to start my master's in Marketing or Entrepreneurship (I'm still analysing the options) in January or March. I used to be a social media analyst in Brazil and I'm kinda hoping to get a position here similar to or better than I used to and grow up day by day, improving my English and my acknowledgements. 
When I was a kid we used to have a cat, called Tonico, but one of my siblings, unfortunately, was allergic and we go a good person to adopt him :). Since I left home I never had any pets because I was all day out and studying tonight I don't think it was fair with them. But my oldest sister has Sophia, the cutest poodle in the world and I used to go there and stay for hours, I think she loves me because she always knew it when I was arriving and waiting for me in front of the door. 
Currently, I watch 2 cats here in Dublin. B is a bit skittish although since I started we made progress and she comes to me, I need to keep myself quiet because she runs away if a make sudden movements. yeah! M is so sweet and stays with me wherever place I go. She loves to be kissed! 

Well, I think it's it. Thanks for your time! 

Hi my name is Nicole. I'm 27 and live with my boyfriend in Dublin City Centre.I have tonnes of experience with all kinds of dogs and with a wide age range from fresh little bouncy fellas to more sleepy old buddies.I have about 2 years experience puppysitting but have had dogs for over 15 years. So your little friends will be super safe with us. I have looked after dogs of all sizes so doesn't make a difference if they're a tiny friend or a big boisterous fella I'll love them either way hahaWe had sadly lost both of our dogs last year (old age and cancer :(((( ) so really looking to make the house less quiet with lots of new little friends! We are also more than happy to board doggos overnight too and long term. We live directly in front of Pearse Square Park which is absolutely perfect for dogs to go and play in. I would know the majority from living here :)We also have a big back garden so the buddies can come in and out as often as they like.I am currently working from home Monday - Friday so am always available to look after some pals mid week during work hours but if longer or different hours are required we can work with this. If you need someone to come mind the buddies in your home this is also fine during the day as I can bring my laptop and work from there. I have experience administering medication, looking after puppies as well as very old dogs.I would rather meet the lil dudes before we agree to anything and show them my home and the park just to make sure they're comfortable and safe but also gives you peace of mind too! I can't wait to meet your lil buddy!

Hi there, 
My name is Caroline - I'm French, I am 27 years old and have been living in Dublin for the past 2 years, working for a homeless charity. I unfortunately don't have the space to adopt a dog myself here, but I really miss spending time with animals (I had few pets at home growing up and my grandparents had a small farm). 
That's why I am now turning to Pawshaker for the opportunity to be helpful to busy dog owners, all the while getting to explore more of the city by foot as well! 
I have walked friends' and neighbors' dogs in the past and have been coming along to dog walks with a friend of mine here who's a Pawshaker member and recommended me this app! 
I love walking and always look forward to time spent out and about, especially in green spaces, outside of my working hours. So far I'm just missing a walking buddy, so I'm hoping your dog will become mine very soon 
I am available in the morning before 8:30, in the evening after 5:30 and on weekends. I would say that I am very attentive, responsible and reliable (also very punctual, the German side of me ). 
I am based in Dublin 8 - the Liberties - and happy to walk your dog around Dublin City Centre during the week, or further outside the city on the weekend. 
Looking forward to getting to know you and your furry companion soon! If there's anything you'd like to know about me please don't hesitate to get in touch! 
Caroline 

My name is Virginia, I'm 24 and I live in Dublin, but I'm originally from Italy.&nbsp;
I'm an animal lover, in fact, I've always had animals at home trying to take the best care for them.
Since 2021 I take care of three beautiful dogs, every day: a jack russel, a labrador and a golden retriever.
We have a beautiful routine during the day, as we go out exploring the parks around the city at least three times a day. Feeding and cuddling them is also part of the game.&nbsp;
I'm not scared of them at all and I'd love to take care of them in my free time.
I'm enough flexible with my job, so I can manage most of my time however suits best for me and you.
I have the possibility to help whoever works all day and can't manage to walk them or take care of them so oftet during the day.&nbsp;
I leave in the heart of the city but there are so many places where to enjoy fresh air with them.
I'll be really glad to take care of your beautiful animals and to spend time with them.
Hope you find this description useful.&nbsp;
For any question, please send me a message and I'll be happy to answer you.
All the best to you and your furry friends!


I love pets in general. I enjoy a lot to go walking with my cat in my country and I know how difficult is find someone to trust taking care our pets.So why I would like to provide for owners and their pets, a good experience walking or just visiting in home to take care and give a good quality time enjoying and playing.I have experience as dog and cat walker, taking care cats, dogs, fish and bird, walking in the park, feeding, changing water, playing and giving affection.In this moment my cat is in Brazil with my mother while I came to Ireland to study. I study in the morning, by the way. So I am free in the afternoon and evening to walk in the Mountjoy Square Park and/or go to visit in home.About exotic animals, I don't have experience yet, but turtle. I have interest in getting experience with it.I like snakes, turtles, lizards, rabbits, guinea pigs and all the animals I can have the opportunity to care for.
