Typically €30–€80 per day in Ireland. Enter your town above for real prices from providers near you.

House sitting jobs can range from a few hours to several days or weeks, depending on the owner's needs. It's important to discuss the expected duration with the sitter beforehand.

While many house sitters can care for general pets, specific needs may require a qualified specialist, especially for exotic or medical needs. Always check the sitter's experience and qualifications.

Same-day availability can depend on the sitter's schedule and demand. It's advisable to contact potential sitters as early as possible to secure their services.
