We feel like we’ve won the pet and house sitter lotto with Scott. Most importantly, he’s taken great care of our much loved little dog, giving him a lot of care, affection and attention. He paid close attention when Tingsha began scratching (allergy to an insect bite) which needed vet care, with great communication with us. He even took Tingsha to his agility school class each week (great fun had by all) and to get a groom. We’ve come home to a contented and very happy dog. The house is spotless, cleaner than we left it, with fresh flowers and the bed all made up. Perfect! We had regular contact with Scott all through our five week trip and being “fellow travellers” (in all senses) enjoyed sharing lots of local travel tips and experiences as we each visited new parts of the world. We were happy to lend Scott our car and he’s been great with it, super responsible. Scott is a really terrific guy and a fabulous journalist and story teller (you must listen to his podcast about his travels, it’s a cracker). In sharing our home and trusting our beloved dog with him, we feel like we’ve made a new friend along the way. We recommend Scott without any hesitation and thank him for a wonderful experience, we’d love him to come back and see us, anytime. Thanks a bunch!
honeybee was a great sitter for our 3 animals. She communicated very well throughout the sit. Our flight home was delayed and she was great about being able to cover the extra days. Her connection to the animals was wonderful. We were less organized than intended on her arrival due to some unexpected work issues, and she was great about rolling with the changes (e.g. the closet doors were missing as the painter hadn't finished with them). She used public transport to get to Golden and then drove our car while here. She left a few items behind, and her attention to kitchen cleanliness could be better, but we would definitely have her sit our pets again if the opportunity arises.
Samantha and Scott are great sitters and we enjoyed hearing from them a couple of times while we were away. Our pets were very relaxed and happy too! Very happy to recommend them.
Leslie and Kyle set the bar for all other pet sitters! On the first morning of their stay my cat got out due to a faulty window in my apartment and they handled the situation so well. Leslie sent a text explaining what happened and that my cat had returned safely and she was so calm about the whole thing that it put me at ease for the rest of my trip. Kyle went above and beyond and not only fixed the window screen (he actually fixed two screens during their stay!) but also made sure the window was secure until maintenance could come and fix the issue. Their go with the flow attitude was amazing. I would 100% have them sit for me again! I can not recommend them enough. You would be lucky to have Leslie and Kyle as your sitters :)
Anant was a great sitter and a friendly guy. Kept me up to date re his arrival and with Marie & Toulouse during the sit. Found my house exactly as I had left it. Would highly recommend Anant to other pet parents.
Martin was a very conscientious and thoughtful house sitter who took excellent care of our pets and our home. He was reliable, self-sufficient, and a very good communicator. He clearly enjoys and cares for animals, and our house was spotless when we returned. We recommend him wholeheartedly!
Bard and Kim are amazing house sitters and pet care givers. I would recommend them over and over. I wish I could add numbers to the scale. They would get a 10+. Bard and Kim were super easy to work with, efficient, self-sufficient, and considerate. They took immaculate care of my home; it was definitely cleaner after they left! I would recommend them without hesitation over and over.
Ce was an amazing house sitter for our best bud Atlas. She not only took amazing care of our needy pup, she took great care of the home as well. I honestly think she left it cleaner than I left it for her! We certainly hope she is around the next time our best friend needs a friend. If you're looking for a responsible caregiver for your pets and home - look no further!
Elaine was the best dog and cat sitter I have ever had! She was so loving to the boys, kind, reliable, capable and took fabulous care of my two dogs and cat welfare. Walked them every day and would even sing to them (-: I am so very grateful to have had the pleasure of meeting Elaine and I would recommend Elaine to anyone wanting first class care of pets and home!!! We all miss having her around and wish her a fabulous world trip and safe journey back to the States.
What an amazing couple we had as pet sitters for our two dogs! You can truly feel their love for animals. Nancy sent pictures a couple of times letting us know that they were having fun also with our Cody and Carson! Our home was perfect when we got home. They even left a beautiful potted flower and card on our island in our kitchen. We highly recommend this couple! Jim & Wanda

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
Our dogs Alfie and Teddy have stayed with Carmel several times now. Taken for daily walks. Videos sent on request also.You can see Carmel has a genuine interest in the dogs. They come away in great spirits which is the tell tail sign. Will be using again and definitely recommend Carmel for your pets. Denis
My two dogs have stayed a few times at these kennels and love it. My girls come home so happy after having so much fun. Carmel brings them for lots of walks and they get to have fun in some water too. It is secure , clean and my dogs love Carmel. Her own four doggies are all very friendly and calm. One of my dogs is a little nervous yet she was sitting next to all Carmel's dogs getting ready for a walk when we arrived to collect them, looking happy out and calm :-)
Carmel had my dog Zeus for 2 weeks over the Christmas. She kept us updated with video / pictures etc. Zeus got on great and we did not have to worry. She provides a great service and I would highly recommend her. Thank you very much Carmel.
It was my dogs first time staying overnight at a kennel so she was very nervous but Carmel went above and beyond to help her settle in and sent me whatsapp video updates. Was so nice and reassuring to see my dog loving her time at Glenbradagh Farm. Would give 6 stars if I could! For a dog that was nervous upon arrival, she'll definitely be excited to go back again. Thanks again Carmel !
My dog has stayed with Carmel on several occasions, for up to one week, while we were away. It is brilliant to have someone I could really trust to look after her, and Carmel is very caring, knowledgeable and great with dogs. Carmel sent me updates about Lexi while I was away, and Lexi was happy and well cared for when we came back. I would highly recommend Glenbradagh Farm. Thanks Carmel!
Carmel is wonderful and we were delighted to have her mind our two dogs. We have a lurcher who is a fussy eater and Carmel went to great lengths to ensure he ate. We'd gladly send our dogs back any time.
arrived to pick up my 2 dogs. they said hello and then ran off to play with the other dogs. they really had no interest in coming home. a good sign. they loved it there.
Carmel is amazing, Our puppy just had her second visit to glenbradagh farm, Carmel looked after her like she was her own. Loved seeing the video's of Poppy having a great time on the farm. Thank you Carmel.
Rolo was very well looked after & Carmel sent me updates and videos of him out for his walks etc. Was lovely to see him enjoying himself in his new environment. Would bring him back there anytime.
Great place for Doggy holidays. She didn't want to come home she had so much fun! Sent me videos and pictures whilst we were away. The kids were thrilled..
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 🐾 …
My dog charlee just spent 6 days with Martin, her tail was wagging and she looked so happy and this was before she saw us at the gate. This was her second time staying. When we arrived she was so excited and happy. Martin & Co thank you so much for looking after her. Regards Maura
Our dog Charlie stayed for a week and they looked after him brilliantly. Very handy to have him groomed while he stayed. Would highly recommend Country view boarding kennels.
My Charlie “golden retriever” has been going to country view kennels since he was a small pup he is nearly 7 now and I wouldn’t go anywhere else! Charlie jumps out of the car when we drive in and Martin, Niamh and the lads are all so lovely to deal with and I know they care for every dog that comes to stay for boarding/ day care.. Grooming is fantastic and I have been blessed with the lads as they have notified me of any changes “ which has happened” to Charlie skin and recommend what next to do.. 5 star all the way!! your fur-baby will love it there.
A lovely place to leave your dog while you are away. Niamh and Martin are sensitive to need and will accommodate each animals routine. They have a run in their top field each day and Martin ensures that small dogs don't run with big ones. Grooming is on offer too and is done well. A brilliant find!
I'm always happy to recommend Martin for both boarding and grooming. I always feel happy leaving my dog with them for a little holiday and there's loads of room for the dogs to roam and play
This place was terrible!!! I left my dog here for about 10 days I collected her she smelt terrible like she had been locked up the whole time. When they sent one picture of them outside on gravel not grass like mentioned in their web page she was timid and looked nervous. I would not recommend this place at all!!!!
Would highly recommend these kennels!! Our dog is older and is on a special diet and the kennel owners fed her exactly what we asked them to and kept strictly to her diet. She seemed to thoroughly enjoy the kennels also! Lots of ground to run around!
Fantastic kennels and grooming parlour. Very professionally run. Our labradoodle is an assistant dog and she loves it there. She practically jumps into their arms. She is always happy and healthy coming home. Wonderful service.
Left my dogs here for 17 days reassured with the high ratings, both lost a lot of weight, the “updates” I got during the stay were that “they are very happy” and only when seeing them and how skinny they were did I get more explanations about how they were not eating that well, that they were hungry and so and so. Never once on those 17 days was I told that they were losing weight, or asked if their food amounts had to be adjusted. To top it off, when I got home and bathed my dogs I discovered two wounds on one of them (one on a leg one on the tail) that seem to be caused by laying on hard floor for long hours. Where were the beds I left them with? Why was this not noticed or why was I not informed? This doesn’t look like they were being walked as much as I was told they were (the explanation I got for their weight loss). Never again am I bringing my dogs here, very disappointed and angry.
Our golden retriever loves his day trips and over nighters with Martin, Niamh and Seán who do a great job looking after him. 👍 …
We have our dog Cario staying here for the past several months while we have been saving to get a mortgage for our own place. All I can say is Olive is brilliant with animals and we know our dog is extremely well looked after and in safe hands with Olive. We have left Cario here on numerous occasions, so when we couldn't find anywhere for her to stay and found out Olive did long term stay, it was a no brainer to book Cario in until we could apply for a mortgage and get our own place. I highly recommend her to anybody for long or short stays. Your dog is treated like one of the family. Plus you can visit your pet more or less when you like, just have to come between certain times and can't come on Sundays. Which is fair enough as the family need a day off for themselves. Can't wait to get our dog Cario back and hopefully that will be soon.
Olive runs an excellent and friendly service. I have no hesitation in recommending here. Our dog, Mozart enjoys his time at the kennel.
Olive is such a wonderful person. She has looked after our dog and our cat as if they were her own. Great to see her as busy as ever
I have used the Canine Country Club & Mrs Chippys Cattery for our cat multiple times. It's a great place, the owners are friendly and handling the animals professionally. I can certainly recommend it without hesitation.
I have used this boarding kennels for my dogs for 18-20 years, both my current dogs Tasha and Scott enjoy there time in kennels, and i am confident that they are safe and well cared for while they are there. I recommend this kennels without hesitation.
Just collected our 2 dogs from here yesterday morning Bella and Buddy, and they didn't seem too bothered about leaving so they enjoyed themselves. Will def bring my dogs back here again😁 …
Lovely kennels know my pets are very well looked after. Olive is very caring.
The team here are lovely, fantastic setup and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend to care for animals
Always happy with the good service and know my cat is in good hands. Keep up the good work!
Very friendly and helpful people to deal with and most importantly Buster the wonderdog loves it there which is the main thing. Can't say enough good things about it ,would recommend it 100%
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
John is a professional kennels owner with the highest standards in care and facilities
Very professional service. Great setup. Dog very happy there.
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.
