About Niamh
Always had multiple dogs growing up at home in Cork. I live in an apt in Dublin at the moment and can’t have pets unfortunately so looking to help dog owners and gain some doggy time ☺️ It’s important to me to understand what owners prefer and have some time with the dog in their presence ideally, to say Hello initially. I’ve looked after and been part of training for puppies but also cared for older dogs in recent years.
It’s important to get to know a dog(s)’ personality as well as owner(s)’ preferences. Some good play time, spending time getting comfortable with the dog(s) initially. I don’t have any preferences in terms of breeds but do enjoy walking trained (or learning!) dogs.
My experience is based on looking after my own dogs at home, neighbours’ dogs, dog sitting in a dog’s own home for holiday periods, and minding my friends’ dogs for few hours and a few days as needed.
I live in an apartment so I cannot have dogs to stay for prolonged periods or overnight. For shorter visits, I live near a big park, where dogs are welcome, and near river / port and do have an outside space suitable for air.
