About Jacinta

Hi all. Welcome to Barking Mad boarding 🐶. Your dogs home away from home 🏠. Feel free to have a look at my new Instagram page of the same name. After buying my own home last year, I started doing foster work for many dog shelters across Dublin. Through DSPCA, Dublin Dog Hub, Dogs Angels and Milos Mission Rescue, I have fostered a number of different breds and age groups ranging from a few days to a couple of months. I've been around dogs my whole life at home. Dogs are my happy place ☺️🐶. Some might even say I prefer dogs to people 😉. 
I attended training classes through the DSPCA for dog training. I take all types of breds and age groups. In my home I have beds, bowls,toys, leads, crate, enrichment games and medium size back garden for when those zoomies hit 🏃‍♀️!! Your dog will be walked as many times as advised by you. I have experience with walking dogs who are 'reactive' or who are muzzled in public places. 
I will set up a Whatspp group between myself and the owner to send photos and videos of your baby while they are with me. 
I advise a meet and greet where you can leave your dog with me for an hour if booking day care and a trial night if booking boarding ,so that they are comfortable and you get to see my home. I would ask that all dogs are toilet trained and puppies are crate trained for overnight. If your dog is currently doing behaviour training, I will continue this while they are staying with me 😊 . 
While fostering, I've have had to administer medication to dogs, so if your dog has extra needs, that is no problem for me. 
Feel free to ask me any questions you need 🙂

I highly recommend Jacinta! My dog Chopper felt really welcomed in her home, and we received lots of updates throughout the day. Her garden is very dog-friendly, which gave Chopper plenty of space to play and explore. He was fed, walked, and had an amazing time playing all day long. When we brought him back home, it was clear he’d had a great time as he went straight for a long nap. 10 out of 10!

Azov was very happy staying with Jacinta, she provided daily updates. Recommend!

We were so lucky to have Jacinta look after our Daithí she was amazing with him. He took to her straight away and made himself right at home in her house , and it was such a relief knowing he was in great hands. She kept him happy and totally spoiled , and sent us little updates that made us smile while we were away. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs, and Daithí definitely loved her back! Would 100% recommend her to anyone needing a caring, reliable dog-sitter. She’s the best!
