Gemma and her daughter looked after Maisie and my house over half term. Gemma was a great communicator before and during the sit. She's also very friendly! The house was in top shape when we returned and Maisie seemed relaxed and content. I would not hesitate to recommend Gemma.
We feel we are so lucky to have met Yen and Chi. They have been absolutely wonderful and I could see that they really loved our dogs. They were so kind to them and really got to know them and were sensitive to their behaviours! The dogs seemed very happy and relaxed when we got home. They sent us lots of little texts and photographs during the sit of where they were walking and what was happening. We very much hope that they will come and stay again! They coped admirably with 3 dogs - an extra one just for this particular sit! Next time it will just be our 2, Lottie and Freddy! They looked after our little flat beautifully and left it absolutely spotless. We really do so appreciate their help and attention and affection for our pets.

Wouldn't trust anywhere else with my dogs. Love watching there Instagram page for updates too. Would definitely recommend them 😊 …
Mt dog absolutely loves the place. They offer great updates on Instagram so you can see how your dog is getting on
This place is the Only 1 that I'd TRUST with my Pet, Riley. 🐕 …
A brilliant service that our dog loves. Staff are amazing. Really couldn't recommend more.
Excellent service and they just love dogs. Booked in for obedience classes for my pup,looking forward to it
Amazing service and staff. My dog loves going to the park with Craig and Luke 🥰 …
My dog loves this place and the staff are so friendly
Let people who really love your dog take care if them!
It's a really nice erea for ur dog
Care well
First time leaving my babies at kennels while away. They were so very well looked after! They were happy and healthy when I collected them.Thank you so much!
Excellent kennels, thank you so much for taking such great care of Milo, he was a very happy dog when I collected him, hopefully you'll have him again 😊 …
Lovely people do a fab job on my Collie. He’s normally fearful of vets and groomers and the like, but he loves coming here. Highly recommended!
Excellent service. Good people. Happy dog. Grooming service is good but not cheap. Great location near city.
I collected my two dogs Monday they were covered in pee and poo on their heads body everywhere…their beds were soaked in pee so they were basically sleeping in their own pee for a whole week…they weren’t giving their treats or wet foods none of the packets were even open for them (to refuse) just some nuts…its making me more angry and sick as in my opinion they were neglected and I feel so guilty looking at them now that I left this happen to them…I couldn’t even hug my dogs when I got home from my holiday they were so bad just rushed home and scrubbed them will never EVER use these again
Great Kennel, it was our two young dogs 1st time going into a kennel and John and his staff were incredible. We were put at ease that they'd be well taken care of immediately, they were brilliant with the dogs and when we got back after the weekend it looked like the dogs had had a better vacation than we had!
Wonderful kennels, my two dogs love going here. They get walked at least twice a day and they are properly cared for. I trust the staff here completely and i have total peace of mind while I'm away that my two dogs are in good hands. You won't regret using these kennels.
Highly recommend Ballyclough Dog Grooming & Kennels to look after your fur baby. We put our little fella in while we went on holidays, he was pampered and really looked after by all the staff. I reckon he came back shorter from all the walks he got...! Can't thank the guys at Ballyclough enough, its a relief knowing our baby was looked after so tenderly while we were away.
Brought our 5 month old Shih Tzu puppy for her first groom yesterday. They did a great job and the dog seemed to take it very well so she was obviously treated very well. Will be using again
Our dog got very good care it was her first time in kennels and she got on very well and would put her there again
Urban tails is fantastic, so grateful to have this facility in Limerick. The staff are excellent and keep you updated on the dogs activities during the day with entertaining stories. Chroí loves it there. 🤩🙌❤️ …
Was a customer, unfortunately our dog always came back smelly. Also, he was often ill after being there and we haven't had this problem with other daycares/kennels. Consistent price increases and terrible communication. Unless you use Instagram, you won't know about closures. Owner is terrible at dealing with customer questions and takes everything personally. So it's agree with her or get out. After two years I've learned it's better to spend money and time in better facilities, Abbey Boarding/Daycare, PawPals, Ballyclough, Bed and Biscuits and also some independent dog walkers/minders. Any of these businesses will treat you and your pup better. Urban tails gives a misleading first impression and does not value longevity
Absolutely top quality service from the very start. I cannot recommend Urban Tails enough to send your dog to. As soon as Peach had her jabs we sent her for the first time and she was so small we weren’t sure how she would get on but the care, love and attention she has received from all the staff from the very start has resulted in her absolutely running in the door every single day when we bring her now. This for me tells you everything you need to know about how happy she is to go there and be around all her pals. Not only that but Anne Marie, Carol, Abbie and all the staff are so helpful with any questions we had around Peach. They are so accommodating when things pop up last minute and Peach needs to be dropped at a moments notice. To summarise, we would be lost without Urban Tails and no words can ever say how grateful we are to have such a fantastic service available to us where we know the most important thing in our life is loved just as much as she is at home! ❤️
I cannot recommend Sally at the Dog Pawlor enough. My little girl is anxious in new surroundings, so when I dropped her off at Urban Tails daycare for her autumn groom unsure if she would settle away from me but Sally reassured me that Boo would be absolutely fine and that she was! Sally took time chatting to me to see how I’d like her legs body and face groomed and did exactly what I asked and if not more! Boo was returned to me as pretty as a picture, so relaxed and content. There wasn’t a whimper out of her and no stories to tell Mom on the journey home.
We'd be absolutely lost without urban tails! Loki starts getting excited anytime we're on childers road even if it's the weekend. He's been going there for over 2 years now and loves it. But even better we have peace of mind knowing he's happy out to be there while we work. I spend my days watching the Instagram stories and feel like I know all the doggys! The girls are amazing and as a people dog, Loki approves of them all. He's even willing to go back in the day after a groom with no hard feelings 🤣
We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Urban Tails in Limerick! Our dog Fionn absolutely loves going there, and with us working full time, it has become a second home for him in our working days. The moment we pull up, his tail starts wagging uncontrollably, and he races to the door to greet his friends and the wonderful team of ladies that Annmarie has hired. The staff is incredibly attentive and genuinely cares about each dog. They always keep us updated with any unusual behavior they might notice with Fionn, along with delightful updates about his daily adventures. It's clear that they take the time to understand each dog's personality, and that makes all the difference. We honestly don’t know what we would do without Urban Tails. The peace of mind we have knowing that Fionn is in such good hands is invaluable. We are so grateful for the love and care they provide – it truly shows how much they value our furry friends. Thank you again to the amazing Team Urban Tails, for taking such amazing care of Fionn! AKA FIONNDERTAKER!!
The best Doggy Daycare/ Groomers. Couldn’t recommend it enough. All the staff are so kind & friendly and take such good care of my doggy Gordon.
This was out first time with Urban Tails. My dog Cooper got a fantastic professional cut and we will definitely be back in a few weeks time, and thanks again.
Very happy with the care taken with out lil Jack Russell, he came back absolutely gleaming. Thank you Ann-Marie, we will see you again in a few weeks.
Fabulous place, my dog loves going to mix with the other doggie friends. Staff are so kind. Your pup is in safe hands!
We sent our 6 month old pup out to Niall recently. He had such a good experience when I went to collect him he didn’t want to come home with me! Was nervous leaving him for the first night but was reassured he would be totally safe. Niall is such a lovely man with a great set up for the dogs. You can tell he really cares for animals. Will be 110% sending our pup out again.
A lovely place for our pets to relax and enjoy there stay, very caring owners and very clean and well looked after kennels, one of his favourite places x
Fantastic place to leave your pets, Niall and Martina really looked after our two dogs so well. Thanks guys.
One of the better places to leave your pet. Very good and the anim are well looked after. Ran by very nice caring people. It's like our dog is on his holidays
Top class, Niall & Martina are so kind & caring . Cannot recommend them enough ,
Niall solved our problem of finding a safe ' holiday' venue for our four legged lady.so happy to leave her knowing she is well cared for.
I have been leaving my dogs here for a number of years now and I wouldn't leave them anywhere else. True dog lovers Niall and Martina, dogs are always well loved and cared for.
Best doggy daycare I have ever used!! My dog loves it here and I know he is being well looked after. The facilities are 1st class.
Family bussines, lovely staff. Our dog loves them and gets excited every time we go there. I won't leave my dog in any other place
Lovely, Lovely fella. Had the cats there for over two weeks. They came back in great condition.
Our dogs enjoy their time with Margaret, Helen and all the staff, as they are kind and caring. The dogs invariably wag their tails, as we arrive and travel up the driveway. We are sent videos, plus daily texts updating us of status. Having somewhere safe, welcoming and a 'home from home' is so reassuring as leaving them is a hardship.
Holly and Molly really enjoyed their 10 day holiday with Perfect Paws. They are looking forward to their next 5 star experience there 👍🏻👍🏻 …
Fantastic facilities Great attention to your pet Lovely caring staff Spotless clean Excellent grooming service My dog is so comfortable and happy there.
Helen, Margaret and staff are always so helpful, friendly and caring. I know my dog is well looked after because when we take him out if the car he runs straight to Helen for his hug and great welcome. It is also comforting to get regular updates by text when we are away and it's great to know he is doing well. All in all I wouldn't leave my fur baby with anyone else and highly recommend Perfect Paws !!
First time leaving our dogs with Perfect Paws and thought it was great. Felt really comfortable leaving them with Margaret and the dogs seemed to really enjoy their time here too!
Great place. Lovely staff, my dog was safe and happy on return.
Absolutely amazing team. We wouldn't leave our dog with anyone else. Helen and Mags are truly the best to care for your pet. We are always happy to leave our dog knowing she'll be so well looked after.
First time for my dog who is not used to other dogs. I was worried but I got constant updates and a video. Will definitely be using for next holiday.
Always have our dog stay here when we're away, extremely friendly staff, our dog Roxy loves it here, she loves her walks and perfect paws also let's you know how your pet is doing which is great, would highly recommend perfect paws your pet is in safe hands here.
My dogs Hooper and Taz had a great time ! Great to go on holidays with complete peace of mind knowing my dogs are in good hands . Highly recommend
My pup goes here twice a week and fights me to get out of the car so he can get in there quick. He loves it, always comes home wrecked. The team here are very friendly and always inform you of the day you pup had in their care. Can't rate it highly enough!
My dog Mabel and more recently my puppy Esme go to doggy day care and overnight boarding.The whole team welcome and look after them with great care and a special thank you to Emer who also grooms them . The communication is excellent ,prompt replies and very helpful with any general questions I have.I cannot express enough how happy my dogs are going into Abbey boarding kennels . Thank you Clair
Storm loves going to the kennels, he adores Garrett, Karen and team. He always comes home so happy. Such an amazing kennels! Thanks guys.
I knew collecting my 3 dogs that they absolutely loved it here. It's always a worry when you have to leave your fur babies but in the future I will not have any hesitations about leaving them here A1 service. Thank you so much
Used kennels a few times.. Dog back safe n sound but not himself.. Owner has v well constructed site and accommodation but dismissive of any concerns.. Doesn't keep in contact like many kennels do.. Our dog def didn't like him n he doesn't seem like a dog lover. Pal of mine felt same.. His sister however occasionally covers and she is lovely
Absolutly delighted with this place. My dog Chico was there twice and he loves going there. The staff are very friendly and professional. Highly recommended this kennels.
I was uneasy about leaving our dog at a boarding kennel as I've never used one before. We couldn't have found a better service in my opinion. Nice clean facility run by concientious folks. They're very quick to communicate and follow up with us. Our dog comes home happy and well cared for every time and we use them often. When i have seen staff with my dog or other dogs they're great with handling them. Prices are affordable. Really can't recommend them enough!
Booked in my 14 month old cat in March for 4 nights in July. Texted the number after booking as I realised I'd made an error in my application form. I received a thumbs up emoji in response. This struck me as quite unprofessional, but I chose to overlook it. I double checked with my vet, that he was fully up to date with all vaccines, he was. The day I dropped him in I forgot to bring his vaccination book, but only realised I made this error that evening. Nobody ever contacted me asking me for his records. So I have zero confidence that he was safe there. Let's hope none of the other cats in the kennel had cat flu or feline AIDS. There are 3 of us living at home, all with different schedules, so he grazes as he likes as there is always someome at home when he's hungry. I told the staff member this as she walked away with him. I've collected him a day early, only 4 pouches are missing from the box I provided. My cat eats 2 pouches at a time. The poor guy. No response provided when I text informing them that I would be collecting him early. The guy just seems pig ignorant. Definitely would not be recommending, and would actively discourage people from using this place. Anyways, I have to feed my cat now 👍
Cannot recommend Abbey Boarding Kennels highly enough. My dog, Ted, absolutely loves his stays here. The staff are wonderful and you can tell they really are invested in the care of your fur baby. Ted bounds in the door at each visit. I can leave him and not spend my break worrying about his care or whether he is getting exercised enough. I would recommend them highly.
Amazing facilities, really professionally run for both day care and overnight. Our dog loves going here for day care & only recently stayed overnight for a few nights for the first time. We were very nervous as he usually stays with family but we could not fault them. We never once worried if he’d be ok; he was so well looked after and came home looking great after getting a wash too. They now offer grooming services. Just brilliant! 🐶
The experience we have had with Audrey from start to finish was second to none! Contact response was super quick, Audrey is very efficient. The quick drop off was so easy and Audrey’s love for dogs is clear as day. Audrey kept me posted throughout the weekend with their adventures and my mind was at ease from the minute I text her to look after her. Nala settled in with Audrey straight away and came home content, with her bed washed and everything! Thanks so much Audrey we will be seeing you again soon.
I was able to get in contact with Audrey about taking my husky blue for a couple of nights. As a typical husky he is very hyper and full of energy but not when he came home! He had gone on so many walks and runs with Audrey that he was exhausted when he got home! It was great blue loved it, so much so he nearly didn’t want to leave! Audrey was also great over the couple of nights with communication as when I text so see how he was getting on she snapped back a couple of pictures which really put me at ease. 5 out of 5 service from blue and myself will definitely be back! 👏
Audrey took the absolute best care of our 2 dogs while we were away , she kept regular contact and sent pictures everyday which we wanted. They were walked morning and evening, when they weren't out and about they were cosied up at her fire on lovely beds. It meant so much to us to know the dogs were with a genuine dog lover and they will absolutely be going back to her again.
We were away for three days, and Audrey, who minded our dog Obi, was amazing. It is very clear that she has a great love for all animals, which really put our minds at ease. We could really enjoy our holiday knowing Obi was in a home where he was being well looked after. I got lots of lovely updates each day about how he was doing, which we loved seeing. Thank you, Audrey, for being so kind and caring with our dog. We will be recommending your dog-sitting service to our family and friends.
Audrey was excellent with our dog Louie. We were very happy she accepted him on very short notice .We got lovely updates while we were away, which was excellent for us, knowing Louie was very happy .Will send Louie. Thanks, Audrey
Left Lizzie with Audrey on short notice she was welcomed as one of the family straight into this homely environment the setting and facilities are ideal and she even brought Lizzie into Limerick city centre Monday morning there are people just born to look after your pets Audrey is one of these special few and would not hesitate in leaving Lizzie with her again this really was a 5/5 experience from start to finish.
I've been sending my dog Bailey (Soft Coated Wheaten) to Dan's for the last 12 years and I have nothing but good things to say about Dan and his kennels. He is such a lovely man and always shows such care and respect for the dogs in his care. Our new addition, Alfie (Zuchon) and Bailey both love spending time in Dan's and are so happy when they leave - tired, well fed and happy! Since moving to the other side of Limerick, I still choose to bring my pets to Dan's as I trust him implicitly. If you're a dog lover then you're in good company with Dan!
Great experience. We left our shihtzu in with Dan for a week and we couldn't be happier. The dog seemed unhappy to be leaving. She has a pep in her step since staying with Dan.
Worst experience ever. Brought our dog to this kennel for one night so we could go to Dublin. We told Dan she was in heat and he promised to keep her penned away from males. To our shock and horror, we discovered our dog got pregnant while on his property. Our dog was only around other dogs while in heat in his care. So disappointed, angry and the cost accrued because of this was in the hundreds of euros.
Dan, a very kind man, loves his dogs and they love him.
Great service! We have left our male golden retriever in with Dan for daytime dog minding, and he is always so happy and tired afterwards. Dan is great with the dogs, puts them at ease straight away, let's them play together and then takes them for walks out in the field behind the house. Cannot recommend this service enough!
Highly recommend, your beloved dog or cat will be treated like part of the family here. It's such an excellent service, offering doggie day care and overnight kennels for your dog or cat. My dogs love going to their doggie day care. They have their regular gallops, and Dan keeps a really lovely dynamic between the different breeds, excellent socializing for your dog, big or small. It's set in a countryside, green fields all around and open space for your dog. Dan also has a roofed outdoor play area when the weather takes a turn. It really is like a home away from home for my dogs. Dan and the gang take the upmost care of the dogs in their care.
We couldn't have been more pleased with the service provided. We would highly recommend Dan and his kennels. He's a true gentleman and we knew our pug was in safe hands with him.
Can't recommend Dan enough. Animals are well looked after and well exercised. All at a reasonable price. Bringing my dogs there years
Excellent management and amazing staff! Absolutely amazing with animals and owners. Great knowledge of dog breeds and always willing to help or answer any questions. Would 100% recommend this place ❤❤❤
Excellent Kennels our dogs love this place and the owners are very good and care about the animals and send you video updates of your dogs so you don't have to worry how they are getting on the also are very good at keeping an eye if there are any health concerns about your dog.
Khai loves going to Ana! She is wonderful with him kind and patient couldn't recommend enough 5* treatment 🥰 …
Only place I trust to take care of my small Morkie Joey overnight. Joey absolutely loves going to Lough Gur Doggy Day Care, and is besties with Anas two dogs, Twinkle & Hope. Ana takes care of her like she's her own. Also uploads pics and sends updates which I love 🥰 Whenever I collect Joey she is always so happy and I know just was just so well looked after. 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Excellent at dog grooming always turn out the best I’ve ever seen , and such a nice lady too !
Excellent Service and beautiful groom on my dog.
We have been taking Fern to Dave and Sarah for a number of years now and she just loves going to stay with them. They’re like her foster parents when we are away. It makes such a difference to us knowing that she is so well looked after and loved while on her holidays there. We would have no hesitation recommending Cullen Hill pet Sitters to anyone looking for their furry family member to be pampered.
Sarah and Dave are very professional with minding my dog. You don't have to worry about anything while on holidays. They have a veterinary backround and are great people. Thanks again again guys.
