About Vanessa

Hello everyone I hope you don't mind saying up front that an overnight booking covers a 24 hour period, If your pup needs to stay the following day beyond that please add a day's daycare as I find it difficult to plan drop of and pick up times otherwise. Thanks. I am a dog and overall animal lover who has had dogs all of her life, and currently have a lovely shy rescue lab cross Dakota, and a beautiful golden doodle puppy Henry who is now 13 months old. As I work from home I have a lot of flexibility to help mind other dogs, especially knowing how difficult it can be to find someone kind and reliable. I live in Cabinteely Park which is wonderful to walk in, with a great offleash dog park, and also regularly get into the car to walk elsewhere. I am a TOTAL softie who just loves dogs so I believe I can offer a lot of love and comfort to pets who are away from their owners. I am a responsible person and should any issues arise have a local vet to whisk any dog away to. I would also of course provide the same level of care to any dog with me as I would to my own dogs and am happy to administer medication etc. My dogs are walked at least twice a day but dependent on which dogs are with us all dogs can be walked together or individually twice or three times a day, or in suitable groups based on size and speed! My two dogs play together and with their toys beside me whilst I am working at home and they are inside - the back door is open to our enclosed back garden so they come in and out as much as they wish. I am also happy to have dogs who are used to being near their owners upstairs with me at night rather than downstairs and lonely. Look forward to seeing who might come to stay with myself, my adult daughter and our two dogs. Both of our dogs love company. Finally, I am one of those people myself who worries about their pets constantly when I am away/not at home - I can only promise that huge care would be taken to provide physical and emotional safety and security to any dogs staying me us. and lots and lots of affection. We will communicate with owners as much as they need to feel in touch and happy.

Vanessa cared very well for Snowy and he came back happy and healthy. He seems to have had a great time and Vanessa took extra care to ensure his needs were met. She communicated well and we got plenty of updates on his days!

Vanessa was such a find for our pride and joy Sammy. It was his first time staying over with her and she loved him like her own doggies. She also put my mind at ease. Constant contact and pictures of their adventures . I would highly recommend x

Vanessa was fantastic with Rolo, 10/10 would highly recommend!
