Hi, we are Harry and Katie, an international married couple living in Dublin 6 looking to give some of our extra love to your non-human family. Unfortunately, our apartment is not pet friendly so we cannot have a furball of our own, but Katie grew up with cats, dogs, fish, and bearded dragons and Harry grew up with cats, dogs, cows, and hens.
Katie is originally from the United States with a degree in Biology and loves being with animals, hiking, and travelling. She is a former DSPCA employee. During her years of travel, she was fortunate enough to volunteer at a family zoo in Australia caring for lions, monkeys, dingos, kangaroos, deer, and other Aussie natives; she also volunteered at a wallaby rehabilitation center and completed an internship in Costa Rica working with sick and orphaned baby wildlife. Harry is from Kildare with a degree in Multimedia and loves film, hiking, and travelling. He grew up on a family farm in Ireland and has always been interested in animals from cows to hens and all in between. Right before the pandemic struck we were in Bolivia caring for rescued jaguars, pumas, and ocelots but were forced to evacuate the beautiful jungle before the borders closed.
Combined we have walked dingos through the Australian outback, cheetahs in South Africa, and pumas through the dense Bolivian jungle, and if we can handle them we will have no problem with your fur family.
Recently we have been a part of Trusted Housesitters, doing a few housesits in the Dublin area, Greece, and England.
My Services
Home Visit (Katie or Harry): During the 30 minute stay we do feedings, top up water, clean the litterbox, outdoor time for dogs/playtime for cats, etc.
Overnight Pet Sitting - in your house: Both of us will keep your pets company for twice as much love. This includes two walks per day for dogs, watering plants, doing the bins, collecting mail and any packages, sticking to their feeding schedule, and lots of cuddles and playtime. Typically the housesit starts in the afternoon on the desired day and until noon on the last day. However, times can be adjusted :) The most important thing is keeping your pets happy and relaxed while you are away.
If needed, we can administer oral medication and are happy to send updates/photos of your pets while you are away.
**Per night price based on two pets, additional €5 per extra pet
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Harry and Katie were so amazing and we were so thankful of the amazing care they took of our lurcher. Anyone who has a lurcher knows that they love company and I could tell through the updates they provided that he wanted for absolutely nothing. They sent us plenty of pictures and took care of our dog exactly as we would have. Thank you so much Harry & Katie!
Harry took such good care of Barney. His communication was super clear and he kept us updated over the evening. From the pics he sent, it looks like Barney was having a great time!
