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 Rathmines that can help?”.

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

Hi there! 
I’m Rafael, originally from Brazil and a proud dog dad to Mishka and Molly, two adorable Spitz who are currently staying with my father back home. 

Being away from them has made me miss their company, so I’d love the chance to care for other furry friends while living in Dublin, Ireland!

I have experience caring for multiple dogs at once (more than four at a time!), so I’m well-trained to provide attentive, loving care. Back in Brazil, I worked as an IT Project Manager and took care of dogs on the side to help support my own pups.

I specialize in looking after dogs of all sizes, from small to large breeds. I enjoy taking them on long walks and ensuring their health and happiness.

I’m flexible with hours and pricing—feel free to DM me if you’re looking for reliable and loving dog care!


Hi, I am Bruno, I am 36 year old, I am a pet loving, living in Dublin 6. I have always had pets growing up and my love for animals has only increased into adulthood. I have a passion for taking care of animals. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets which were mainly dogs. I am happy to provide pet sitting and pet care services, including workday check-ins and feedings, litter box cleaning, daily walks and overnight care. I am comfortable around all breeds and sizes of dogs and cats.
I have a deep love for pets. Animals bring so much joy with their energy, curiosity, and playful nature, which only makes me love them more. They are the best companions, always ready to listen without complaints, and eager for a good walk. I believe in respecting the well-being of every animal, taking the time to observe how they feel, and communicating that to their owner. It will be a pleasure to share my time with your pet. 
When walking dogs, I always go at their pace, never pushing them beyond their limits. I have experience with small and medium-sized dogs, and I have a special affection for cats too. Having animals around warms my heart, and since I have pets of my own, I extend the same love and care to other dogs.
I am really looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies. 
Just send me a message if you'd like to speak further ️


My name is Suelen, I'm 32 years old and I'm from Brazil. Since I was a child I have been passionate about animals. My first dog was called Garoto, and I also had a cat called Ninho and another called Pelé. I have always had a huge connection with animals. But here in Ireland I can't have one because I live in a shared house. I really miss having contact with animals, so I decided to start a career in this area. I'm still taking my first steps, but I believe I can help with your friend's care by cleaning the environment, feeding, playing, going for walks or just keeping him company. I am available on weekends and in the afternoons, in case of travel I can organize myself to sleep on site. Providing this service to your family is a way of keeping in touch with something that I enjoy and that makes me miss home less.

Over the years, I've had the joy of caring for cats, dogs, and even more exotic pets like snakes. My experience has equipped me with the skills to understand and meet the unique needs of each animal.In addition to my personal pets, I've developed a knack for bonding with all kinds of animals, making every interaction with them a truly enjoyable and fulfilling experience.

My schedule is flexible, allowing me to spend quality time with animals when their owners are away. Whether it’s walking dogs in the local park, feeding cats, or simply providing companionship, I cherish every moment spent with these wonderful lovely pets.

Here are the services I offer:

Dog Walking: I’m available for daily walks, providing exercise and stimulation for your dogs. Walks usually last between 30 to 45 minutes but can be adjusted to suit your pet's needs and energy levels.
Pet Sitting: I can provide care for your pets in your home during your vacations or business trips, ensuring they remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m available for both short-term and long-term sitting.
Pet Care Visits: If you need someone to check in on your pets during the day, I can make home visits to feed them, change water, and give them some playtime and attention.
I'm based in Cork cit and available to serve the surrounding areas. Thank you for considering me to take care of your beloved pets.
I look forward to meeting you and your furry, scaly, or feathered friends and providing them with the best care possible.

I've always had animals at my house since I was a child, nowadays I have two cats in Brazil that I rescued booth from the street and I already had other rescued cats. I always provided what my pets needed: going to vet, bathing them, helping with the application of medicines and the necessary care for the well-being of our puppies. 
My biggest motivation is the love for animals and being able to spend time with them. I'm on the app to take care of your pet and give him affection as if he were mine, with companionship, interaction, fun and care.

I will walk with him through the beautiful parks of Dublin.When I hear your bark I already know that happiness is waiting for me at the gate.Our modern lifestyle does not always allow us to dedicate the time we would like to spend leisure time with our pets.  And yet we know how important it is to take daily walks with them due to countless factors and benefits.&nbsp;Many end up having the only option to leave the pet trapped in apartments and reduced environments throughout the day!  And this choice ends up having very difficult consequences, such as the animal's sedentary lifestyle, stress, obesity, depression or even hyperactivity.No time to walk your dog?&nbsp;No worries about it, I'll do it!!Walk BenefitsProvides physical healthImproves dog muscle toneImprovement of the immune systemPrevents obesity&nbsp;Reduces stress and Calms them downPromotes sociability&nbsp;

My name is Marien, i'm from México. I came to Irland to learn english. I love and respect all kind of animals especially dogs. I have four dogs and i love them  so much. I belive that animals can be an important part in our lives for example I read that interacting with animals lowers cortisol levels (a hormone related to stress). Giving them a decent life is the least we can do to return all the love they give us. I worked on a Hotel dog taking care of them and maintaining the place.My name is Marien, i'm from México.
