About Heather

Our family (two boys 18 & 16 & I) have had dogs all our lives. We have 2 rescues ...the adorable , super friendly, ball addict and high energy setter/spaniel cross Oscar, and wonder cross Ody ..(lab, blood hound, german shepherd, staffie) who is much lazier and loves his belly rubs and playing with our guest dogs. They're both pretty enthusiastic, so we need to make sure your dog and they are happy together so need them to meet first. We walk up the mountains a lot so prefer dogs with very good recall and good on the lead. I have studied a lot of dog behaviour and positive reinforcement training methods. We live in Kingston , Ballinteer and have a great sized secure side garden; huge field next door and few minutes to Dublin mountains & Marlay Park. We have fostered collie pups; Staffies; greyhounds; puggles, labs and German Shephards - love all types but preference for medium to larger breeds. Guaranteed lots of walks & play, and most importantly love and cuddles! One guest dog maximum for everyones safety & happiness!

Heather is the most welcoming dog sitter we have met. Penny was treated to deluxe accommodation and special sleeping quarters. As a result, she now demands the same at home! Heather's two young dogs are full of life and fun, which left our 12 year old feeling very outpaced! A totally stress-free weekend for us knowing the dog was being so well looked after.

Heather is an absolutely excellent dog minder -- caring, enthusiastic and so kind. Casper had a brilliant holiday and had plenty of walks and activities with Heather's two beautiful dogs. Heather's two sons are also very friendly, so you know that your dog will be happy in a wonderful family environment.

Our dog Brka stayed with Heather and her sons, and he had great time. Heather is reliable, warm and trustworthy person. She informed us how Brka is spending his holiday and she was sending us pictures. Her dog Oscar accepted our dog with friendly manners. All recommendations for Heather and her family.
