Willow and Marina were an absolute delight to host at our place during the Christmas holidays. They took very good care of our home and our two cats. They left our place spotless which made coming home from a long trip very comfortable. The two of them were both responsive and kept us updated with videos and photos of our boys. We were even surprised with an adorable Christmas themed photo of our cats on Christmas morning <3 They were very self sufficient and diligent in the care they delivered. Even prior to their stay they made sure to collect all the information needed to be comfortable in our home. These two are very well prepared, highly responsible and have a great sense of humour. We hope to host them again in the future and highly recommend them! Thanks, Willow and Marina!
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 19.99 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
Our dog Buzz was absolutely well looked after at Cork Paws! we were kept very up to date during his stay, Kristian and Stephen were very kind and phenomenal, taking great care of Buzz, I'd have no hesitation in recommending Cork Paws, if you are looking to leave your Dog in a friendly and safe environment.
I would absolutely recommend Kristian and Steven to anyone in need of care for their dogs. They have a beautiful home and 2 gorgeous dogs who were lovely relaxed friends to my little 5month pup and my parents 18 year terrier. Kristian sends lots of photos of them enjoying their holidays! Honestly think they’re great and so glad to have found them, it was like a home away from home for them both.
Absolutely reccomend this place, went to a wedding for 2 nights and with a 1 week notice, they were able to look after our dog Lexi for those days. Steven and Kristian are lovely, they had us bring Lexi over to get familiar with the house and them and their two dogs Buddy and Abbey who are adorable and very friendly, before we left. While away they kept me up to date with messages and pics of my dog to show how well and happy she was, playing with their own dogs. There house is lovely and they have a nice big back garden that is fenced off that they play in, so your dog cant make a prison break they also walk the dogs everyday. If you want your dog to be looked after in a family home enviroment, while you're away, rather than be stuck in a kennel with 20 other dog's and not looked after as much, Cork Paws Dog Boarding is the place to go. Next time I have to go away, I will be sending my dog here.
I didn't there was such a thing as the perfect dog minder for my pampered pooch Charlie until I met Kristian that is. Charlie is just back home from an amazing stay with Kristian Stephen and their two beautiful dogs. He was so well looked after and made one of the family and I got loads of updates and photos from Kristian. Charlie can't wait to go back! I would have no hesitation in recommending Cork Paws to any dog owner. Thank you so much Kristian!
I cannot recommend Kristian enough 😊 My Rosie can be nervous at times with new people but after her first day care with Kristian she was all waggy tails going again. Rosie recently spent 4 nights boarding with Kristian and she had the best time with walks and her friends Abby and Buddy. It was a huge relief to know she was in such good care. Thank you so much for everything we will see you soon!
My boy Toby stayed overnight in Kristians and I was very happy with everything. He sent regular photos and updates and Toby got on great with the other dogs in the house. He came home absolutely exhausted after a fun filled weekend! I would definitely use their services again.
Chico had a great day at day care with Kristian. He was well looked after and he was exhausted when he got home after a full day of fun with the other dogs. Highly recommend!
Elmo had the most wonderful weekend. He loved all the attention that he got and we got regular photos and updates. The biggest surprise was when we collected him and he was surrounded by three other dogs, and loving it. This was far from the dog we left three days earlier that barked at every dog he saw! Can't recommend Cork Paws enough. We'll definitely be bringing him back for his holidays!
Alfie stayed with Kristian recently while we were away. We were delighted with the updates daily and the photos sent on to us. Alfie looked like he had great fun there. It was a relief to have Alfie looked after in a home environment and with their own dogs there for company too. We would not hesitate to use Cork Paws again.
Brilliant!! My dog Bella had the most amazing time! I received cute pic updates of her while I was away which was lovely reassurance, she really enjoyed her stay and can’t wait for her next adventure! A home away from home.. Thanks Cork Paws 🐾 …
Excellent care for our two cats for over a week. Thanks again.
Great cattery. Tony is very loving to all his boarders and the cats always come home well cared for. Peace of mind on holiday for definite.
We've left our cat with Tony a few times and can't fault his service! Tony is great to deal with, very understanding and so natural with our cat Max. Max is always content when returning from his time in Wags and Tails. Will be definitely returning to Tony again! Thanks :)
My cats have stayed with Tony at least 4-5 times since they were kittens and never had a problem. He sent updates on their well-being while we're on holidays for our peace of mind. The facilities are designed with cats in mind and it´s spotless. Even he has two different areas for the colder months. There are plenty of areas for playing and climbing too. Tony is passionate about animals and knows how to treat them. Always it´s been easy to deal with him and had excellent service, he even offer pick up and delivery. I could not recommend more
Toffee and Coffee had a great time. Chilling at home after picking them up. Thanks Tony. Highly recommended.
My two cats seemed to enjoy their first holidays at Wags & Tails and they've returned happy and healthy. Great communication from Tony from the start. Will definitely be back.
Tony is great, very flexible and lovely to deal with.
Tony was fantastic to deal with,minded my cat for 2 weeks and he was very happy. Gave me a little tour of the cattery,it's great. Highly recommend
Found Tony really rude when collecting our cat. He became very angry when I mentioned I would like to be allowed in past the driveway gate when collecting, to see where she had been staying. He refused. He said no viewings June, July, August. When I said I find that very unusual he became quite angry I had to ask him to stop shouting at me & all he said was go on away woman with your cat. I do not recommend, very odd, made me feel they were trying to Hide something, when they should be trying to instill confidence. Paid €280 for 3 weeks, no receipt provided either!
Great experience. I left my cat here for over 3 weeks while I was on holiday. He was well cared for by tony and is a lot more sociable and confident after the experience
We have been using beechgrove kennels for years now. We had used a place before and our dog came back withdrawn and skinny. At beechgrove he comes out happy and healthy. They take great care of him and never had any issues. We were a day late collecting this time due to delays coming home and it was not a bother a to them. Would highly recommend!
Couldn't recommend to anyone after our experience. My dog stayed just one night as her regular kennel was full. When collected the next day our dog smelled horrendous, was v thirsty when we got home and hungry. It seemed over crowded.
Amazing experience, we left our baby Lola in for 2 nights and she was treated so well. Such a lovely couple running the business. Will use again when I return to cork!
Our greyhound is very happy with beech grove. She used to lose a lot of weight when she went to another kennel but not anymore. Happy to recommend!
My dog boarded here for 11 nights, she was super happy and even lost a bit of weight (as she had a decent routine). Loved this place. Would send her again the next time I travel. Lovely lovely people minding her. Dog was happy with other dogs
Just looking up the phone no to book again and saw this for the rating... When I collected my dog the last time she stayed here she turned away from us... So safe to say she was very happy here!!! 😊😊 …
Our two dogs have stayed here many times now and they are well looked after and always happy to return.
I had to put my boy in for 2 weeks at xmas and he was definitely well looked after as most owners are paranoid over the welfare of there family member going to kennels this was lovely and the owners well very nice and pleasant to deal with, for any people nervous of the welfare of there dogs when away this is by far the place to send them, that KS very much
I’ve been boarding our lurcher mix Poppy with Liz and Donal since she was 6 months and she’s never had a problem. Recently left her for her longest stay of three weeks and she was totally content when I picked her up. She gets excited when she realises where we’re going and is never stressed or upset after her stay 👍👍👍 …
Beechgrove had our 2 staffies for a week while we were on holiday. It was clear from arriving at the kennels that it was a very well run operation. We were met at the desk and everyone we met was very friendly, professional and had genuine empathy for the dogs on arrival. We collected the dogs today and they were clearly very well looked after during their time in Beechgrove and were in good spirits. We would highly recommend Beechgrove and will certainly be back in the future
Daycare, Grooming and Boarding. Joyce and her team are superb, the only place I’d entrust with our pawsome girl. Holly skips in the door and we’ve complete peace of mind at work and on holidays. Every time we collect her she’s in top form, happy, healthy and says goodbye a few times before we leave. Simply the best 🐾 ⭐️ 🐾 ⭐️ 🐾 ⭐️ 🐾 ⭐️ 🐾 ⭐️
A truly perfect experience, and my dog loved it!
Rosie loves her time in little Paw's. Thanks for the great care you all take with our pet.
Very friendly staff. Had my 3 dogs stay here for 3 nights and they seem to have had a ball. Very reasonable also. Beautiful grounds and space for the dogs to run around. Will definitely be using them again. Thanks so much.
Fantastic groomers tried a few different groomer's over the years and this is definitely the best place for our dog "Happy"
Fantastic is all I can say, our dog hates going there to be groomed, like many pets, but is absolutely happy, content and beautifully groomed upon collection. Staff are great our pet, who has a skin condition, and take extra time for her needs. Very knowledgeable and caring, well worth trying out.
Just brilliant, my 2 shih-tzu’s (one of which is a very tough cut) love going there for grooming. My other chap was fostered there and they really looked after him before I took him. The just love dogs and it shows. Highly recommend.
Very happy with the care my doggies got here! They seemed really comfortable and cosy and well looked after, and the facilities seem really safe!! We’ll definitely be coming back again ☺️
I've been using little paws for 12 years. Joyce and co given the best of care to my dogs all down through the years. You couldn't find a better place to leave your little mischief makers while at work or on holidays.
This is such a lovely boarding Kennels and Joyce is so helpful. We were going on holidays and the kennels we had booked into fell through at the last minute and Joyce at Little Paws was very kind to take our dogs Cooper and Ralphie for 10 days. They both had a lovely time. I would Highly recommend this as a boarding Kennels. Thank you Little Paws.
This is our 2nd time carrying our Cat here. It’s obvious that she’s really well looked after, and she was quite content when we collected her. It’s obvious here too that Jim and Bernie and also Gemma like animals.We will be back again, and WE would highly recommend “COMFY KENNELS” for a little holiday for your PET.
Lovely and friendly people here. My dog doesn't mind going there because u always get a great vibe from the place. The grooming service that's available there is fantastic and any time i drop off my dog she get groomed. Keep up the great trade and we'll be in touch again soon 🙂👍👍 …
Wouldn't go to any other kennels. Jim has a natural understanding of animals. All i can say is a big thank you to all staff including Sarah, for looking after Sheena. Will to be back soon. 5*****
I always take my dog sammy to gemma in comfy kennels to be groomed, the service is first class. He loves going there,hes like a new dog after .we also use comfy kennels when we go on holiday its home away from home for them. No better place
Extermal obliging. Rang them to say running a bit after time and no problem and spent a while chatting with the owner at a distance but having her reassuring us about the dogs. So so considered and very helpful. Couldn't do more for the doggies
I recently left my dog at comfy kennels, i found them to be very friendly and very professional. I would highly recommend them. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Very helpful and friendly staff. Explained everything, good service, definitely will use again if have to, thanks leds
An excellent kennels. Well signposted once you get to Dromdowney. Jim and Bernie really go above and beyond.
Very friendly, very easy to deal with and reasonable price.
my dog was after staying there injured.
My dog Roy loves this place. Never ever hesitates going in. Tail wagging. They are lovely people who work there and always a pleasure to deal with and speak to.
Amazing place. Our dog is super high energy and through bark park she has better learned how to socialize with other dogs and the best benefit, it wears her out (one of the few things that does). She goes minimum once a week. The staff is amazing and actually care about your dog and talk with you about any issues they may be demonstrating and work with you and your pup.
The staff are brilliant and our dog has definitely seen a benefit from interacting with all the other dogs. 5*
Best day care. High quality and friendly staff. My dog simply love it. Not only she is very happy going there, but also she learned alot wich help us especially when on the walks
It's absolutely great! The area is truly secured, the staff is very nice, the place is clean and overall friendly! Our 6 months old puppy loved it! Will definitely come back!
Great facilities, great staff, great price
Sara and all the staff are absolutely fabulous with the dogs, my 2 can't get in the door fast enough when we arrive, it's like a 5 star creche for dogs complete with summer camps, Santa visits, birthday parties - you name it, they provide it. It's so reassuring and great peace of mind that my dogs are so well looked after while I'm at work. I would highly recommend them to anyone who loves their dogs 🐕
Our dog loves it here. A home away from home. We have done the puppy training and the daycare and both have been perfect. All the staff are great with the dogs and are super friendly and accommodating. Great location too. We would highly recommend The Bark Park!
Our dogs just love this day centre. Lovely welcoming staff and they really enjoy going there and are happy to go in there each day. Come home really tired after a fun day in Bark Park .
Very good place. Staff are very friendly and are great with the dogs. Our pippa loves the place to!
My dog loves John he's fantastic. Well educated man about dogs and has a good vibe about him. My dog looks forward to his little break away.
Not good. Dropped off our dog Friday morning and said we'd collect him Sunday afternoon. We were told he's not open Sunday afternoon. Fine. We'll collect him Monday morning then, grand. Arrived to collect our dog to a closed gate, had to wait ten minutes of ringing the bell and calling the mobile before someone came out. Then after collecting our dog, they tried to charge us for 4 days instead of 3. I explained that Friday morning to Saturday morning was 1 day, Sunday 2, so Monday 3. He said no, even Friday evening to Saturday morning would be 2 days because its Friday and Saturday, no matter what the time. Ridiculous. I feel ripped off and I will not be going back.
Excellent facilities and reliable service, our dog Lady a beagle seems to love john and everything is great, ring an hr before you collect your dog .Couldn't recommend highly enough
Absolutely brilliant kennel service. Dogs looked after very well and exercised every day. Can't recommend this place highly enough
John is great with our little dog and she absolutely loves being there for the day. Would recommend to everyone!
Missy our small jack Russell back from her holiday today after her first visit . Very happy little dog full of beans Very pleased with her stay here thank you.
Very well run kennels..John is great with the dogs
A dogs life cobh cork boarding kennels is a excellent facilities for your house dog or cat
