Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!
Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.
Anna was an excellent sitter - she took great care to understand all of the intricacies of taking care of the house and cats, asked lots of questions, and arrived on time and ready for the sit. During the trip, she checked in with updates, and upon returning home, left the space tidy and clean. The cats were happy and healthy, and seemed to have had a great time during the sit. Thanks Anna!
Jeanne is a repeat pet sitter for us. She is wonderful and takes great care or our cats and our home. We have peace of mind when we travel knowing our kitties are under her care.
Raquel was simply terrific! She and her husband, Miguel, had to fill in at the last minute for another sitter who had a death in her family. This meant that the length of the stay and sitting they had originally signed up for doubled. Completely undaunted, they did a GREAT job for us. Our cat and dog got lots of love and affection, and plenty of exercise, food, and rest. Our house and yard were cared for with equal conscientiousness. It was wonderful for us to be able to rely so completely on these super zeewoi. We recommend them 100 percent!
Ruoyi was the perfect sitter for our cat Toni! We would highly recommend her to any pet owner, and hope she can sit for us again in the future. Ruoyi was very thorough - she made sure there was full alignment on all the specifics of her pet duties, and she asked thoughtful questions regarding details we forgot to include in our guide. She always provided us timely updates at the agreed cadence, and gave us a ton of photos. From the photos, it's clear she got in a lot of play time with Toni, which we really appreciated! :) We were able to enjoy our entire vacation stress-free knowing Toni was in such good hands. Ruoyi left our apartment completely clean and offered to wash linens.
Windy & Dustin are some of my top go-tos! They are wonderful sitters who I can trust to take care of my cats and goats and love them like their own! They are so respectful of my house and are always flexible with me when plans change last minute.
Lindsey watched our cat and dog for a long weekend when we went out of town. She was a very communicative sitter sending frequent pictures and voice notes with updates. She did a great job of following their schedules and giving them attention. The animals seemed to be happy and relaxed when we returned home and I believe Lindsey enjoyed getting to discover all of the eateries our town has to offer. A win-win for everyone!
Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.
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 €15 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 mind is at ease when we are away. We get daily updates and know our cats are looked after by animal lovers who provide diligent care.
We have used this service dozens of times for our 3 dogs for both daily walks and overnight boarding while we travel. Olaf and Tom are very professional, the dogs love them, and they are always quick to respond. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to make sure their dogs are well looked after while they're gone.
Amazing. Can't reccomend enough. Did great job looking after our pet during our honeymoon. Constant updates on how pet was doing, which was great to see. Will 100% use again.
Our House and pet sitting service is very useful if you need to travel and leave your house unattended for a day or weeks. Many burglaries are committed while people are away on holiday, so it makes sense to maintain a reassuring presence while your home is unoccupied - after all, no-one wants to return to find that they have been burgled or that a burst pipe has been unattended for days. Your pets are also less likely to fret during your absence if they can be cared for in familiar surroundings and are less likely to be exposed to the contagious illnesses which can break out in kennels. Our high quality house and pet sitting services will ensure your house and pets are looked after well.
I left my Yorkie here for the first time. She is a nervous little dog but got on fine and seemed happy. It was great to get a photo of her been walked and played with. This is a great service and I would recommend housesitters.ie
Excellent service.Thanks to Olaf and Tom for taking such a good care of our dog.We used their midday walk service for months as well as home boarding when going on holidays.We know we leave our dachshund in good hands when he's with them.They are professional easy to communicate with and very accommodating.Their online booking system and daily dog diaries with pictures are great too!
Wonderful service, Thank you both, Bonnie as always enjoys her holidays with you both.
Would highly recommend Olaf & Thomas! A great service and so comforting to know your beloved pet is being looked after so well!
I've used the midday walk service a couple of times now, very reliable and dog well taken care of. Will definitely use it again
Great service. They updated us every day with pictures. Will use them. Again.
Destroyed my beautiful dog Bailey. She was nice and fluffy and needed a trim. Her legs had some matting and I said to do a small trim.I was very clear with what I wanted her to get done and they did the complete opposite! I was completely devastated. 1.They shaved her legs way too close to the body. 2. The hair on the body was very choppy ,there’s a few long strands still sticking out 3. They shaved the area around her month close to the skin in which I said I wanted a SMALL Trim. 4. They didn’t even cut the hair on top of her head at all , it’s way too long and she just looks horrid. I wouldn’t recommend this place as they obviously don’t listen to the pets owners. 1st picture was Bailey. Pictures of Before I dropped her off and the second is after… Shaved my poor girl,I’m devastated.
Destoryed my beautiful dog Ruby an apaslute descrice shaved her up like a mole rat never ever again
Great service from dog eclipse. We were on holiday in Dundalk and needed to get 2 of our French bulldogs a wash and dry. Dogs came back clean and well groomed fantastic service and would recommend. Thanks a lot.
Thanks to Neil and crew for looking after our dog while we were away! Fantastic service, collect the dog and leaving her home! Was great to see the photos on Facebook too x
Entered for the first time to get my lab's nails trimmed. Terrible job - cut way too far down into the cuticle. Wasnt informed of the accident came home with a bleeding paw all over the house
Our dog came home very tired and very happy and had lost no weight which he usually does in kennels. Very happy with great service.
My very friendly 5 year old collie was here for one day and one night and struggled to stay awake for 3 days when I brought him home which is not normal for him. The people are clearly not dog lovers as they didn’t try comfort, or even build any trust with my dog. He has always been in kennels so is used to it but he will NEVER be back here again as I know he had been drugged.
Amazing staff. My dog Bosco was welcomed and was greeted wonderfully. Couldn't of asked for a better service . He is glowing xx
We travel from Belfast to get Neill to groom our minature schnauzer. He always does a fantastic job. Wouldnt go anywhere else.
Excellent service. Very friendly staff. Always very Gentle and caring with my dog. Highly recommended.
Lina took care of our 9 month old pup Ruairi while we were on holidays. It was our first time leaving him, but we were instantly reassured. Lina updated us daily with videos and photos and we could tell he was having a wonderful time playing with all of his new friends. He was walked and had plenty of exercise and cuddles. We were worried he would not want to come home to us!!! For Ruairi it really was a home from home experience and he was treated like their own dog. We will definitely book Ruairi in again and have recommended Cosy dog boarding to all of our friends.
We left our 2 year old cockapoo Alfie to stay with Lina while we were on holiday. This was the first time he was away from family, but Lina was so kind and reassuring to Alfie. She gave him so much attention, care and affection throughout his stay. Lina spent a lot of time bonding with him , so quickly he was at ease. We were delighted to watch the videos of Alfie in the garden with the other dogs.He made friends with Guinness amongst others. Lina sent us regular updates, videos and messages of how he was settling in. This allowed us to enjoy our holiday knowing that Alfie was in a home away from home. Thank you so much for giving Alfie such wonderful care and attention during his stay. I would definitely love Alfie to stay with you again. Siobhan Dearey, Dundalk.
Our dog Charlie has been with Lina for the past week. He’s not used to us being away and was quite nervous to begin with. Lina had a magnificent way of calming and settling him. She gave him lots of her time and attention and spent time getting to know his personality. We could see this clearly from the regular photos and videos she sent to us. She is so kind and caring to all of the dogs in her care. I would absolutely use her service again and would highly recommend this home from home for any dog 🐶. Annmarie & Charlie, Kilcurry, Dundalk.
I was very worried about leaving my two furbabies for the first time ever and I must be honest if it wasn't for Lina with her kind and caring heart and her love for dogs I would have never enjoyed my holiday. She took such good care of them and spoiled them, they didn't want to come home.We will definitely be using Cosy Dog again in the future. We can't thank Lina and her husband enough! They are 2 amazing people!
I highly recommend using Cosy Dog Boarding in Louth for your furry friends. My experience using their services for the first time with my French Bulldog, Canelo, was exceptional. Lina, the caregiver, went above and beyond by providing daily updates with photos and messages, keeping me informed about Canelo's well-being. When an unforeseen circumstance caused me to miss my flight and delayed me from picking up Canelo as planned, Lina graciously accommodated him for an extra night without any hesitation. The facilities boast fully enclosed grounds, providing ample space for dogs to play, run, and truly enjoy their stay. Lina's genuine warmth and evident passion for dogs instill complete trust in her ability to deliver top-notch care. Canelo was treated as if he were part of their own family, and I am immensely grateful for the impeccable service provided. It truly felt like a white glove experience from start to finish. :) I will continue to use her services for the future. Thank you, Lina & Donal!
Lina took care of our puppy very well. We were so happy to leave our puppy with her. And also she keeps us updated with video and photos of our puppy when we were away.
We boarded our big boy several times with this lovely people / dog hotel and he loves it madly and is always so excited to go there. Their own dog is also extremely friendly, playful and mine regards him as his older brother (like peas and carrots). They always take/took such good care of our boy, take him out for walkies in the mountain (never more happy to run in the forest or mountains with Guinness) and gets loads of attention and family time. They have enough space around the house for them to run, play, potter, snif, dig, explore and pent of their energy. For the time your dog is with them they regard/treat it as their own dog. They live close to a mountainous area on the border with Northern Ireland where there is plenty of locations to let the run and roam around freely. Every time when we get him back he is still tired days later and I think he misses having fun and be mischievous with Guinness. Both Donal and Lina are real dog people (like us), have a connection with the dog (sometimes I wonder if she knows him better than I do) and are therefor perfectly capable to take the best possible care of your cherished furry friend / family member. I like the idea that when I go on holiday, my dog has holiday (or a special time too) and they certainly give him that. For me the best indication is how the dog is about it and if he is happy it has to be good. I'm sure he is already looking forward to go back. After all. You can’t fool a dog 🙂
our Cheddar been to Lina s place twice already while we were away. we all think he had great times with Lina. delighted with himself. he didn't even want to leave when we collect him. highly recommend . 👍👍 …
Our dog Benji really enjoyed his stay with Lina and family, he returned home a really happy dog. I would highly recommend this home from home for your dog.
My dog had a good time there ,Lina took care of him very well ,lots of play and treats ,definitely will go back
Cannot recommend Walkies with Chloe enough!!! She is so trustworthy, reliable, professional and my boy loves her!
Such a comfort to know that my dog is in safe hands when with Chloe - Professional and Friendly always. Thank you Chloe 🙏 …
My dog loves her & she’s so reliable
It's brilliant knowing your dog is looked after so well when you're away!
Great service
Highly recommended
We brought our little kitten there. We were concerned at first for the small size of her but they were absolutely adorable with her and took good care of her. They sent us few videos as well while we were on holidays. She was playing, eating and in good form. The gave her little toys also and she adores them. Highly recommended 👌 …
Absolutely Amazing place, our Dog Nala always is happy going in and coming out, she adores the staff and is very well looked after. The only place Nala has ever stayed that nothing has been wrong with her coming out and always pull's to get into the shop when passing. Amazing and very accommodating. Staff are always friendly with people and pets alike.
Initially I was worried to leave my dog at the pet hotel, as he always travels with us, but unfortunately was unable to take him this time. I had asked for photos and was provided with a photo and video of my dog, he looked happy and could see that he made new friends. When I picked him up, he looked well and happy. I have confidence in letting my dog stay here again in the future. They also look after birds, we have a pet cockatoo, who has also had a lovely stay here in the past. Thanks again to the pet centre team!😊
Best pet store in Dundalk unfortunately no fishing equipment for sale
Bought my First Budgie off them On Sunday , the 2 girls was so helpful explaining everything to me going through everything , wanted 2 but only one was ready to be sold so will be back in again Friday to get him a buddy will prob as more questions lol . 5 star service also got my cage , food etc with them.
Boarded two cats here for a couple of days. It's clean, comfortable and well maintained. Would use again.
Very helpful and informative about the fish I was buying, plus very friendly
Friendly and helpful and my dog loves staying in their pet hotel
Great wee place. Super friendly, helpful and knowledgable staff. We found our two guinea pigs Pip & Penny here and they are the happiest duo😊 …
Fantastic display of animals and great variety of animal food including bird seeds, fish & other pets food.
I found Denise to be personable and professional. She highlights the importance of keeping to the schedule for the dog's stay. In the event of a dog being picked up late, it means that kennel is not available, and therefore, another day will be added to the bill. It's just a few minutes from Jonesborough on Morgan's Lane. It comes highly recommended as Blue Mountain has a reputation for providing an excellent service. It was our dogs first stay there, and when we returned after 5 days, our dog was in great form. It's comforting to know your dog is in good hands.
We left our 5 month old german shepherd puppy with Denise for 4 days and it went great. I would highly recommend Denise - she shows so much care and attention for your pet, which puts you at ease when you are away. The setting is beautiful too, with really nice surroundings for the morning walks.
Honestly couldn't recommend them enough ! It is a great peace of mind knowing that my dogs were in a safe and loving place while we were away. Plenty of space to run about and so easy to find. The dogs loved it didn't want to leave, will definitely be going back top class service! Amy.
First class facilities with very friendly professional people. Both our dogs thoroughly enjoy their stay every time! The pictures and videos of the pups enjoying themselves definitely adds a personal touch, highly recommend!
Denise is lovely, n Ira loves visiting her. She is really good with the dogs, Ira loves her. It’s great that she on your door step yet in the country. She really looks after Ira. A big thumbs up from us
Super place for looking after your dog/cat. Our dog Bella has stayed several times and she absolutely adores it! These guys love their animals and love your pets too 👍.
Very happy with the service, my dog daisy came back all happy. The fact that you can see pictures of your dog on Instagram is fantastic. 10/10 recommended
Roxy enjoyed her recent stay at Blue Mountain Dog Boarding. The peace of mind that she is being looked after so well when I'm away is brilliant. Highly recommend, 5 stars!
Have always left our dog when going on holidays . Great knowing he was happy when we were away and getting more walking then he got at home haha. They love all the animals as if they were their own
Top class service and you can go away with peace of mind knowing that your dog will be looked after and taken care of 100% Couldn’t recommend this friendly professional service highly enough! Nicola
Left our 6 month old puppy Wanda with Rob, she was very well looked after and seems to have had a very good time and excercise on extensive grounds! Will defo leave her there in our next holidays!
I will never recommend this business to anyone! Our dog went in freshly groomed for 2 weeks and when we picked her up she was appalling! Was told she rolled in mud but she reeked of pee and poo and her harness was bitten at which leads me to believe she was left in her harness for the 2 weeks. Had to bathe her as soon as we got home and we were assured she would be indoors as she is a house dog but to me looking the state of her she was left in a shed of some sort. Only booked here because reviews were excellent so it’s probably friends and family leaving the reviews. NEVER again….it’s to the point now that I’m never leaving her with anyone other than family members. Had her in boarding kennels before and she loved them but not this one. I know it’s a business and I thought long and hard about leaving a bad review as I don’t like it but I value my dog more than that.
We left our dog there for a few days. When we went to collect him.he was so smelly and mad thirsty he was not the same dog for a few days . I asked do you have kennels for the dogs and was told no they all live in the living room I was very surprised to hear this.our dog will Never go there again
My 2 yorkies are always very well looked after by Rob, wouldn't leave them anywhere else.
As always we were very satisfied with our little French bulldogs treatment. The staff are all so nice and at the same time 100% professional.
No.1 in East Coast top professional owner.I wouldn't leave my fur baby anywhere else P4T incredible caring top class groom & stay petvacation.
We leave our dog Holly there all the time and she loves it and we find it excellent.
Fantastic doggy day care Rex loves going to see Rob.
Very friendly and helpful local shop. They gained another customer today
So helpful and my dogs love staying over
Very satisfied with the kennels and Millie my dog loves all the attention that she gets when there.. Would definitely recommend it and the cleanest I have ever seen
Nice owner, great service. Recomended
Great service. Very friendly
Clean facilities and friendly staff
Brilliant home from home for our fur baby Ursala is the best never have to stress when leaving snowy lots of fun he has
Left my dog champ out there for a week and he loved it. He was a bit hoarse when he came home but I put that down to all his barking.. he is an attention seeker. He is going out again next week. I definitely wouldn't leave him anywhere else.
Ursula and Peter took excellent care of my two dogs. In fact, I think they were a bit down when I took them home, missing the company of the other dogs. While in the kennel they had plenty of exercise and attention and not forgetting there treats.
Both dogs very well looked after. One dog has health issues and needed meds regularly and it was no problem to them. Definitely recommending
Left my two dogs in from Friday until Monday. Myself and my partner went to collect them Monday from 9.30 - 10.30. We arrived a little bit earlier, and a young chap was late coming to meet us. We more or less caught them off guard. He informed us that the dogs had been locked up the previous day from 3.30pm. We were there the next day at 10.00am . That's 18 and a half hours they were locked up for. A disgrace. They were covered in urine and faeces. The dogs came out, and I have never seen them go to the toilet as much. They absolutely stank. They still don't seem themselves. It was obvious they were not let out for runs every hour, as stated by owner. In addition, I was also told that they are put to bed at 8.00pm Avoid like the plague!!
We left our boxer×lab Cooper with Peter and Ursula for about the 4th or 5th time now.We love the whole set up they have.We never have had anything but a great experience with them and fantastic value!
Have used the services of Bed and Buiscuit on many occasions. For boarding our dog and grooming him. Never one problem. Only 1 observation it is sooooo good it gets booked up early. Says it all.
My dogs love going out there is plenty of space for them to play and warm kennels for night. They even can get a wash n blow dry before coming home... always the first choice for us
Fantastic home away from home for our furry friends. Plenty of outside space to run around, warm cosy kennel beds. Our dog has had a number of happy visits, even as a nervous spoiled rotten doggy. We have 2 dogs going back again soon. Highly recommended. Niamh Campbell & Sox & Rocky 🐶🐶 …
My dog loved his stay here and the openness of the surrounding fields- we will be back and have recommended to friends ! As humans we get a good “ vibe” about a place x
fantastic place top class grooming relaxing atmosphere for dogs 100% recommend
I have my cat groomed at this place. She is long haired and a bit of challenge. She comes out with her hair fluffy and knot free, as shiny as a new pin and smelling gorgeous. I would highly recommend.
We've been using groomers over 10 years, and Dominic is, by far, the best. I'm so glad a relocation has lead us to this gem. Our beast bounces in to the place, no drama, and bounces out about 1kg lighter, and I can't imagine the effort that takes. Highly recommend
Dominic is a gentleman, my dogs like him, wouldn't go anywhere else, I've tried other groomers over the years but none come close, my dogs always look like new dogs after being with Dominic, can't praise him enough 🐕 …
I couldn't recommend enough. I take my dog here regularly and she is thrilled once I pull into the entrance. I have been to a lot of groomers over the years and I could not fault the workmanship of this establishment. Friendly, Takes no shortcuts and makes sure all the dogs are comfortable and enjoy their experience. Really good for advice on different issues regarding dogs also. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.
Absolutely beautiful place to leave your dog
Dropped off our small Maltipoo for a groom and couldn’t be happier with the result. Was taken with great care and looks fantastic. Will be back, highly recommended.
Excellent groomer! Loved the job he done on my two boys! Highly recommend Dominic! I know they are in safe hands with him
Thor looks absolutely fantastic ....he is perfect ..thank you so much...
Dominic is marvellous with dogs I wouldn't ever go to anyone else. Service is fantastic and my dog always looks great and happy afterwards
