Caring for your dog in Dublin
Dublin-specific tips every dog owner should know
Tidal strand safety
Sandymount Strand and Bull Island have large tidal ranges. Check tides before visiting and keep your dog close as the tide comes in fast.
Phoenix Park deer
Phoenix Park has a wild deer herd. Dogs must be kept under close control near the deer and on a lead in Fifteen Acres during fawning season.
City pavement heat
Dublin pavements heat up quickly in summer. Test the surface with your palm before walking, and use shaded routes through parks.
Dog-friendly culture
Dublin is very dog-friendly. Many pubs, cafes, and shops welcome dogs, especially in areas like Stoneybatter and Ranelagh.

Common questions about dog sitting in Dublin
Everything you need to know before booking a dog sitter
How much does dog boarding cost in Dublin?
Dog boarding in Dublin typically ranges from €25 to €55 per night. The Protection Plan can contribute toward eligible vet costs, subject to its terms.
Where can I walk my dog off-lead in Dublin?
Phoenix Park's Fifteen Acres, Sandymount Strand at low tide, and St Anne's Park all have off-lead areas. Your Petme sitter can recommend the best spots.
Are dog sitters on Petme insured?
The Protection Plan is not insurance. It can contribute up to €20,000 toward eligible vet costs.
Does Petme cover all of Dublin?
Yes. Petme covers Dublin city centre, the northside, southside, and all surrounding areas including Dun Laoghaire and Howth.
How do I know if a dog sitter in Dublin is trustworthy?
Every dog sitter on Petme completes identity verification before their profile goes live. Most sitters also have reviews written by dog owners in Dublin who have used their services. You can browse each sitter's full profile, view their photos with dogs, check their listed breed experience, and read every review before getting in touch. You are never obligated to book - messaging a sitter is always free.
Does the Petme Protection Plan apply to dog sitting bookings in Dublin?
Yes, for eligible vet costs. For bookings made through Petme, whether overnight boarding, a dog walk, or a drop-in visit, the Petme Protection Plan may contribute up to €20,000 if your dog is injured or becomes ill during a stay or walk, subject to the Protection Plan terms. No separate purchase is required. Eligibility rules apply, so read the terms before you book.
Can I meet a dog sitter in Dublin before committing to a booking?
Yes. You can message a sitter in chat and arrange a meet-and-greet before you book. You and your dog get to meet the sitter in person before you confirm anything, and you only go ahead when you are both comfortable. Meeting a sitter first is the best way to check the match.
