Carole and Ron are excellent cat-sitters! They took very good care of my cat Lola and of my house. I came home to a happy cat and a very clean and tidy house. They sent me pictures of Lola and kept me updated, so that I had a very relaxed holiday. I very highly recommend them as cat- sitters and I would be thrilled if they would come back to sit for Lola again. Thank you so much!
. We were absolutely delighted with the care Summer provided for our cats. Without a doubt, she is the best cat sitter we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her attentiveness and genuine affection for our cats were evident in every interaction. Throughout our holidays, she kept us constantly updated with daily pictures and detailed updates, which gave us immense peace of mind. Additionally, she maintained our house in immaculate condition, keeping everything clean and tidy. This level of consideration and dedication went above and beyond our expectations, and we deeply appreciated her efforts. Summer’s exceptional service made our holiday experience truly worry-free and enjoyable.
I never met Joi because due to her work, she arrived after I left and was gone before I returned home. This wasn't a problem at all. She was very self-sufficient and seemed to find all that she needed in my house. The house looked exactly like I left it and my cat seemed very content when I returned. Apparently they had a nightly routine of Luna getting brushed. Joi is a very experienced sitter and it shows.
Young was the perfect house sitter for us. From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is animal person and is detailed oriented and will take great care of your house and pets. She exudes a peaceful and grounded energy. She was comfortable with each our pets from the high energy dog to the shy skittish cat. She played with the dog in the yard every day and took him on walks. And she was also very attentive to our cats and figured out how to maintain the equilibrium in the relationship between the cats and dog. She is an excellent communicator; she asked questions when our directions weren't clear and kept us updated on the pets. She is also an amazing photographer. She sent us pics of our pets every day that totally captured each of their personalities.
We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️
Amber is as good a sitter as you will find anywhere! She treated our cats with such love and care, as if they were her own. She left our house in perfect tiptop tidy shape, and made sure to wash all the towels and linens before she left. She even cleaned out our coffee maker and took up our weekly trash without us even mentioning it! Amber is super kind and personable and we welcome her back to sit for us anytime! If you are looking for a sitter, you should definitely accept her application!
Marianna was an incredible house sitter and cat sitter. She gave our property and sweet kitty top notch care. She is kind, easy to communicate with, thorough, etc. Would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed.
Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter for my Luna! She was very communicable via calls or texts. She followed all my guidelines for feeding and care of Luna. Luna was very content when I arrived home thanks to Heidi! My home was immaculate when I arrived and she did some snow shoveling. She even pulled a large broken tree branch off my roof following a windstorm. I hope Heidi is available for my next trip because she is awesome. Jim
Jose was a wonderful pet/house sitter for us recently. We highly recommend him. He was wonderfully reliable and responsible and took such good care of our two pets. On short notice Jose drove down from Grass Valley to the East Bay for a bit of a quiet get-away while working a really hard job teaching online. We know how hard that is firsthand and partly why we needed our own get-away for a last-minute backpacking trip. We have a recently rescued pit bull and a rescued cat that we're still introducing to each other to make sure the dog doesn't eat the cat (as he seems to want to), and the cat doesn't blind the dog (as she would if he tried to eat her). That might be more background than is needed in a review but Jose made us feel comfortable about everything because of how conscientious and responsible he clearly is. We could tell when we talked to him that he was genuinely kind and eminently trustworthy. We are very grateful and hope Jose was happy with everything too because we know what a value his care was to us. Jose truly deserves any and all house-sitting gigs that strike his interest. Ours was not the easiest and he was amazing. Get him if you can.
Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!
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!
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
Excellent. First time using someone outside of friends and we were really delighted with the service.
Excellent service. Dogs come home happy and tired.
A very thorough, reliable and personable service 👍🏽 …
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.
From my experience, the best kennel in Limerick. The owner Paul is an extremely reliable person and available to suit our needs. Our dog was always safe at Crocodile Dundees.
Left our cat in with Paul for the week while on Holidays, very well looked after & provided regular updates for us. Great service
Highly recommend Crocodile Dundees for dog kennels and his brand new cattery. Paul is so friendly to deal with. My two dogs and two cats all love him. Paul has a lovely nature with animals and even my nervous cockapoo runs to Paul for rubs. The dog kennels have cameras fitted so you can check on your dogs when away, this was reassuring as our dogs are old. I was blown away with how fabulous the new cattery is. Each cats living space has a raised bed, ramp, scratching post and cave for our two cats to climb and jump around. Both cats were very calm collecting them. Heaters are a cozy comfort too for pets. Was lovely to get video updates for peace of mind. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my pets.
I would highly recommend crocodile Dundees kennels . Have used for 2 years and our dogs get on great. So well cared for and so happy. Paul is amazing and even replies to all messages enquiring after the dog while they are there. You can also see them On a camera and talk to them . 10/10
Cannot recommend them highly enough after my cat just spent 3 nights at their new cattery. Plenty of space for them to move around and even had access to a webcam where we could see how he was doing. Will definitely be using them again. Thanks guys
I highly recommend Crocodile Dundee’s for grooming! Niamh is amazing, so helpful, accommodating, and skilled. This is a far superior service to any of the large pet stores and way better value! 5 star service and a great local business to support vs the large pet stores. Very easy to locate and super close to the city centre. We will 100% be back thank you so much Niamh! P.S all dogs get a free bow tie or hair bow as part of the service and it’s such a lovely touch!
We drove from Dublin to limerick to board our nervous Greyhound with Paul and I can't reccommend him enough. He had never stayed in a kennels or outside of our home in his 5 years and has recently become very nervous but I was reccommended to leave Harvey with Paul due to his expertise and way with dogs and I couldn't have been happier, heading off on holiday for 1 month I was nervous how Harvey would cope but Paul reassured me and it was clear on arrival to pick Harvey up he had a great time there too!thank you Paul
Left the hairiest member of our family here for the day a few times. Great experience, friendly, very accommodating. Being able to see our dog live via webcam and even speak to him in the kennel took a load off our minds
1st time using dog boarding for my two dogs met paul got tour and he hooked me up to his camera app which gave me 24hr visual access to my boys collected them after 3days and they came out content wagging tails will definitely be using him again thanks paul
Very good dog groomer very very nice guy. Unlike them monkeys that work at petmania jetland ennis rd limerick. They told me they couldn't groom my dog too giddy she was a monkey. David Madden. Co Clare. If you want a dog groomed go to Crocidile Dundee Ardnacrusha Co Clare
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
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.
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! 🐶
