Hello, I am a seasoned sitter moving to Kerry County Ireland for 6 months for work. I am looking for a rental. If anyone has tips on rental boards or resources in that area please let me know. Of course I will look for sits but I need somewhere I can make a home.

Something that worked for me when I accepted a job across the country and wanted to get to know the area before buying a home:
I checked Craigslist. Ended up with several sublets that carried me through most of a year.
They worked perfectly — I got to stay in apartments that were fully furnished, down to kitchen appliances, cookware, dishware, etc., like we get while doing THS sits. So all I brought were my laptop and clothes.
Two were in great locations, in upscale apartment buildings.
One sublet was with a woman who was traveling abroad for months and the other was with a professor who was teaching at another college for the semester.
One was with a family with a mother-in-law unit with its own entrance. Also a great location and beautiful home.

I never hear family speaking of Craigslist in Ireland. The most common alternative is donedeal.ie, plus the sites mentioned by others.

Thank you all for your insight! 
BTW, you might also try googling the city plus “corporate apartment” or such. In many locations, there are furnished apartments/flats for let for folks on months-long business trips, doing relocation, etc. They come with everything you need and you can just bring say a laptop and clothes. They’re often offered as part of chains that have multiple locations, so you can specify which neighborhood. And some are pet friendly, if you need that.
