Cat Sitters in Tallaght

Bridget

Breda is fantastic. She looked after our dog and cat for the third time and was great. She's a great communicator, leaves the place spotless and most importantly takes excellent care of our pets. Highly recommend!

Deirdre

Dee was quite nice and kept the apartment tidy while she was here. We didn’t get so many updates about Ymir, and barely got any pictures. Not quite sure Dee is really a cat person, but she did well with instructions and keeping Ymir company.

Yana

Yana was great with Daisy and Jessie. They were very happy and well looked after when we returned. Yana provided many updates and pics of the pups during her stay. The house was left clean and tidy. I would not hesitate to have Yana sit for the pups again.

Gemma

Gemma looked after my house and my cat, Gizmo for nearly three weeks over Christmas. She was great at communicating before and throughout the stay, responding quickly to any messages I sent and took the time to come and meet us before I went away. During my time away we exchanged a few messages and she was always responsive, friendly and helpful which was reassuring. The house was immaculate when I got home and Gizmo looked super relaxed, healthy and happy. I'm hoping Gemma will be able to housesit again for us in the future and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone else!

Eleni

We couldn't have been happier to have Eleni look after Elsa. The dog was at ease with her from the get go and I think she's probably better trained since we returned. She was trustworthy, looked after our house too and is great company - couldn't recommend highly enough. Thanks Eleni!

Inna & Anna

Excellent sitters, our pets were really happy and relaxed when we arrived home. And the house was spotless, not easy with two lively collies. Thank you Inna and Anna

Lucy

Lovely friendly young lady. Very kind to our pets. Highly recommend.

Renata

This was our first experience using this website, and naturally, we were a bit anxious. Fortunately, we connected with Renata, who stayed at our home for two weeks to look after our cat and dog. Our dog, a rescue German Shepherd, can be reactive to other dogs, so we were especially concerned. However, Renata was incredible with him. She walked him every day, and when we returned, we found both our pets happy and well-cared for. Renata’s communication was excellent—sh e kept us updated regularly with messages and photos. She was also very tidy and took care of our home as if it were her own, even remembering to take the trash out on the designated days. We also got to spend some time with Renata, and it felt like we had known her for a long time. Thanks to Renata, we were able to take our first vacation as a family after years. I cannot recommend her enough!!!

Nikaleta

The only reason I m reluctant to write this review is because I m afraid they will become so popular I won’t be able to have them with us next time LOL!! They are absolutely adorable and I so kind to our pets home and people I even came home to an amazing soup after a 30 hours flight Not only I highly recommend them but might submit an adoption application for them to become family. Thank you so so much

Megan

I would 100% recommend Megan as pet sitter. She looked after our 2 cats while we were on holiday and everything went smooth. Megan took great care of both the cats and the house, she sent us frequent updates and photos, and everything was in order when we came back. The cats felt relaxed and happy around her :) We also particularly appreciated her flexibility in travelling one day earlier to be able to meet us. I will definitely reach out again in the future :)

Joseph

We would absolutely welcome Joseph back to our place to petsit Nelly. Everything has been very smooth and easy to plan. We went on holiday stress free after meeting in person just few days before going on holiday. Joseph has been very flexible on the arrival and departure day and time, and adapted his schedule to make sure Nelly was the happiest cat. We have received the most adorable photos and videos of them bonding together during our holidays. We came back home to a very tidy home, and to towels and bed sheets washed and drying on the line. Thank you again for your stay with Nelly, she definitely misses you.

Frida & David

Frida and David did an exceptional job of caring for Gili & our home. They asked appropriate questions that signaled their attention to detail in understanding Gili’s needs and they brought Cheese for Gili, which totally won her affection! We loved receiving regular updates & photos which gave us a sense of reassurance so we weren’t preoccupied thinking about Gili when we were away. Gili went on lots of adventures and explorations which she loves and is used to. A really helpful thing they did was to take Gili out on their own for a while to help Gili get to know them before we headed off for the weekend. We returned to a spotless home and a very contented Gili and the bond between Gili, Frida & David was evident in their interactions. We highly recommend Frida & David, they are on our favourite list & hope they can return again to care for Gili.

Barbara

Great communication from the outset from Maddie, she and Ben engaged with the dogs as soon as they got here and had read up on routines, feeding etc.
Good communication whilst we were away, arrived back to two happy dogs and a clean and tidy house.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Maddie and Ben as housesitters and Cooper and Mavis have asked for their return!

Helen

Anna is a fab sitter, really easy to make arrangements with, my cat was very well looked after, and the flat looked great when I got home.
