Shane and I have both grown up around animals and have had pets of our own throughout our lives. Weβre very comfortable with both dogs and cats, and weβve also looked after pets for family and friends when needed. We genuinely love animals and are used to all the normal parts of living with them. feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, cleaning up after them and, of course, accommodating their individual little personalities!
What does your pet's daily routine look like? Is there anything we should know about their behaviour, health or temperament before booking?
Hi! Iβm Latifah, and I house-sit together with my partner, Shane. Weβre both huge animal lovers and have grown up around pets, particularly dogs and cats.β© Weβve previously house-sat together while looking after two dogs for an extended period and genuinely loved it. Weβre very comfortable with the normal day-to-day stuff like feeding, walks, playtime, keeping them company and, obviously, providing an unreasonable amount of attention (Our dog demands lots of pets and cuddles πΉ)β© We both work remotely running our own businesses, which means weβre around during the day rather than disappearing off to work for 8 hours. Weβre also pretty flexible with where we can be around Ireland and are especially happy with longer stays. We do still go out and explore, grab food or run errands but we'd always plan around your pet's normal routine. If your pet has any particular needs around how long they can be left, just let us know and we can discuss what works before the booking.β© Weβre homeowners and short-term rental hosts ourselves, so we completely understand that youβre not only trusting someone with your pets, youβre trusting them with your home too. Weβll treat both with the same care and respect weβd want someone to have with ours, keep things tidy and happily send updates while youβre awayβ© Every animal is different, so weβre happy to stick to whatever routine theyβre used to. Walks, feeding schedules, particular sleeping arrangements, favourite toys, weird little habits, excessive cuddles, whatever keeps them happy and comfortable.β© One important thing to know is that Shane and I always sit together, so there will be two of us staying in your home and looking after your pets. Weβre more than happy to meet beforehand, virtually or in person, so you can get to know us and, more importantly, your pets can decide whether they approve of us first.Β β©We are brand new to the platform, so we have decided to offer our first few stays at a heavily discounted rate while we build up our profile and reviews. We genuinely enjoy being around animals, so getting to look after somebodyβs pets while theyβre away sounds like a pretty lovely gig to us. β€οΈβ©Hope to hear from you!Β β©Latifah & Shaneβ©
See photos, care updates, and activity as your sitter shares them. Follow walks live with GPS and see when visits start and finish.
This sitter has no pets of their own, so your pet wonβt have to share food, toys, or attention with the sitterβs animals.

My dog can be quite particular about people but loves being around Latifah and Shane. That alone would make me comfortable having them look after him while I was away.
If we needed someone to mind the dogs, Latifah and Shane are the first people we ask. The dogs know them really well and are always happy with them. We completely trust them to look after them.
