near you.

Tips for hiring a dog walker in Cork

Solo or group walks: Ask if they walk your dog alone or in a group — both have advantages

depending on your dog’s personality.

Weather policy: Cork gets its fair share of rain! Ask how they handle bad weather days.

Communication: A good walker will send you updates or photos during the walk for peace of mind.

Trial walk: Book a single walk first before committing to a regular schedule.

Not all dog walkers are the same. When searching for someone to care for your dog in Cork, it’s worth taking a little time to find the right fit. Here are the most important things to look for:
Experience and references. A good walker will be happy to share references from existing clients. Ask how long they’ve been walking dogs professionally and whether they have any training in animal first aid.
Insurance. Professional dog walkers in Ireland should carry public liability insurance. Always ask before booking.
Group size. Some walkers take out large groups of 6–8 dogs at once, while others offer solo or small-group walks. For anxious or reactive dogs, a solo walk is always better.
Updates during the walk. The best walkers send a quick photo or message during the walk so you know your dog is safe and happy.
A meet and greet first. Always arrange a short meeting before the first walk so your dog can get comfortable with the walker before being taken out alone.
