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!

Another amazing sit by Anna and her lovely family - our cocker spaniel Holly has had the best fortnight with these guys with lots of adventures and endless amounts of love and attention! Highly recommend as 5-star house and pet sitters - thank you Anna - hope to see you again!

Angie and Joe were fabulous pet/house sitters and overall people! Angie sent daily updates with photos. Really appreciate the extra effort they put into watering the grass and garden. The house was exactly the same as when I left (including sheets/towel washed, beds made, frig cleaned, dishes put away and trash taken out...). Pretty sure Mia was looking for them the next day as she ran to the guest bedroom. Already scheduled a second sit! If you're lucky enough to land them as pet sitter then you're lucky.

Kelly was flawless, she was a fantastic pet sitter and house sitter. She was over communicating with pictures and updates. We were at total peace knowing Kelly was overseeing Leo and Bella. Kelly connected with our dogs perfectly. We loved how Kelly daily took our dogs for walks and even an extended hikes. She has our full and complete recommendation.

Megan was the perfect house sitter - got lots of updates and pics of my kitty, communicated well, was flexible and left the place spotless! Would definitely ask her to pet sit again!

Exceptional Pet Sitters - Highly Recommend Diedre and Keith! I am thrilled to leave a glowing review for our trusted house and pet sitters, Diedre and Keith. They took exceptional care of our long-haired cat, Molly, and our home during our absence. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and their communication was top-notch. Dierdre and Keith provided regular updates, including delightful pictures of Molly, which put our minds at ease while we were away. Upon our return, it was evident that Molly had been well cared for and was content. The genuine love and understanding Diedre and Keith have for both dogs and cats was apparent in their interactions with Molly, and it was clear that they had made her feel comfortable and secure in their care. Their friendly and professional demeanor made the entire experience truly enjoyable. In addition to taking great care of our beloved pet, Diedre and Keith ensured that our home was in excellent condition upon our return. They even went the extra mile by informing us about the leftovers they left in the fridge, which was a thoughtful gesture. I wholeheartedly recommend Diedre and Keith as exceptional pet and house sitters. Their attentive and caring approach, coupled with their expertise, make them a perfect choice for anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy sitters. Don't hesitate to entrust your home and pets to this fantastic duo!

I could not have asked for a better first time sitter experience! Terry & Vinnie were absolutely wonderful people. They took stellar care of my beloved pets and my home. Their communication with me was enough that I felt perfectly at ease during my time away and in turn, they were super responsive if I contacted them. My pets were relaxed and happy when I returned!

Janis is a wonderful person and also an incredible sitter -- we were very, very fortunate that she agreed to care for our beloved pets and rural log home for 3 days. We were confident that everything would be perfect – and it was. We returned to a home as clean and ordered as we had left it, inside and out. All plants were thriving; outdoor hanging baskets were blooming profusely. Most importantly, our beloved dog and 4 cherished cats had obviously been lovingly and attentively cared for. The koi were also active and happy. Janis is a “cat whisperer”. She is especially skilled and patient with shy felines, so we truly appreciated her patience and caring for our sweet Angie (with a semi-feral background). Janis immediately understood that Angie, despite her reclusiveness, craves affection and was able to start to earn her trust even with such limited time. Among Janis’ many gifts: she is a talented photographer and delighted us with frequent updates and photos of our furry children. They are so beautiful that we, with her kind permission, plan to include several in our zeewoi profile. Janis’ communications, reliability, self-sufficiency, and punctuality were exemplary, start to finish. We made a wonderful new friend and have already invited her back to sit again. If you are privileged enough to ever have Janis sit we are certain that you will be as delighted and happy as we are.

Angela and Joe are wonderful house and pet sitters sitters in every way. They have a great loving way with animals and my shy dog warmed up to them right away. They are warm, organized, confident, and thorough. They communicated very well and gave me frequent updates and sweet photos of my dog Chica. They also took excellent care of my home. My only regret was that I didn't get to spend more time with them, because they're such lovely and interesting people. I give Angela and Joe my highest recommendation and feel that anyone would be very lucky to have them their sitters! I hope that they return to sit here again.

David was an outstanding house/pet sitter for our active pup Tosha, older kitty Rascal, and 4 chickens. Rascal came home with a deep, gaping wound the day before we left for 11 days, and David was very responsible in monitoring the healing process with photos and texts to us. He exercised Tosha in the neighborhood and local parks, and obviously enjoyed her company. Our house was spotless and extremely neat when we got home, which is always welcoming after a long trip. We are very grateful for the excellent care David gave to our precious pets and home.

Can’t recommend collins canines enough. Molly, our timid golden retriever pup, seems to be scared of all humans except for Aidan and she can not wait to get out of the car and let me go to work so she can spend the day with him!! It’s so lovely to see how much Aidan loves the dogs and how much the dogs love him. It’s also so nice to know that while I’m working Molly couldn’t be left in safer hands. Even the weeks I’m off I’ll send Molly in at least once a week for her own entertainment
We love leaving Mina with Aidan and the girls, and she loves going there, wagging her tale as soon as we arrive! They're all amazing with the dogs. They're professional, reliable and they really are looking for the dog wellness and positive experience! Is a peace of mind leaving her with them!🐾🐾💚 …
I dropped off my bouncy, energetic, crazy puppy Bruce today! I brought home a calmer, happier, more mentally and physically stimulated puppy. I can't thank Aidan enough, this is exactly what my boy needed. Such a wonderful place for dog socialisation. Aidan is fabulous and really knows his stuff. I really appreciate how he is so clear and precise about what you can expect and the best schedule for the dog in respect to days, duration etc. Can't wait for the next day! Would highly recommend to anyone bringing a puppy into their life for the benefit of their dog in the long run! So much thanks!
Aidan, Rosin and Hilary are just amazing! My little rescue is changing for the better every day, gaining confidence and learning how to play! Aidan and team clearly adore the dogs and I know I'm leaving my one in safe hands - and the daily photo's are just the cherry on top! Couldn't recommend enough!
Contacted Aidan as saw he had mostly good reviews. Completely rude and unprofessional. Was told “he doesn’t take stressed or crazy dogs” and told to go elsewhere. When asked where would he recommend he said he didn’t know anywhere for me. I’ve heard before that he’s not a people person but didn’t believe it until I saw it. Wouldn’t recommend getting in touch with this guy.
Collins Canines team are amazing and have been an integral part of helping my once nervous rescue dog adapt to being a happy healthy dog :- she loves her time here. I couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
Our 8 month old Labrador Retriever has been going to Aidan and his team for a few months now and he absolutely loves it...it's great for socialisation in a controlled safe environment. Max loves going up to meet his doggie friends on a weekly basis. He jumps out of the car and runs in for his days fun.
Was with Collins Canines for about 2 months end of 2020 and as rude and unprofessional as I thought Aidan was, he was my best option at the time and did seem good with my dog. After a 9 month break, he claimed to have no recollection of either myself, my dog or any whatsapp messages, he didn't seem interested in my business when i asked him for dog minding 4 times a week but eventually did allow a test booking for a few hours. Within 30 seconds of me handing the dog over at the door to me getting back to my car, he could apparently tell that she was very aggressive and not used to other dogs. I had just come back from a week holiday where the owner of the day care didn't charge me full price because "she was such a pleasure and got along with every dog". I fully understand that he knows his animals, but from the get go it seemed like he didn't want my business. He said he would follow up on places i could bring her but I didn't hear anything from him again. Would not recommend for lack of friendliness and professionalism alone.
We managed to get our dog in while we visited cork for a graduation. During both the trial day, and the full day that our dog was there, we got photo updates via WhatsApp which was so lovely! Collins canines/ Aidan are very professional and he and the staff clearly love what they do!
Aidan is the only person our boxer has ever been happy being left with outside of our home! He’s amazing with dogs! Would highly recommend Aidan and his services!

Cooper is a newbie at Muddy Paws but he absolutely loves it there. Niamh is just amazing with all the dogs & it’s a home from home with the addition of his doggie pals. I feel so lucky to have found Niamh
Niamh is absolutely amazing! Our dog had been going to Muddy Paws for 3 years and adores it there. They are always well looked after with a large area to run around and play. Can't recommend highly enough and so important to the area as all our dogs are well cared for while we're at work.
Niamh is fabulous at what she does. Muddy Paws has a large outside space for the dogs to run around and play but also has a smaller inside space for some who need a little downtime. Niamh is so knowledgeable and can always offer advice if needed. My Bernese Mountain dog loves his doggy friends and his Niamh!
A fabulous place for your dog to learn and socialise, they'll get the best care and all the dogs always seem happy to be there! Niamh is very knowledgeable and very friendly and kind. Love bringing my boy here🐶❤️ …
My mother's dog Ricky loves going to day care. Niamh is wonderful with dogs! The dogs are always so happy 😊 …
Absolutely fantastic place. Niamh is wonderful with the dogs. Always happy to leave my dog with her, knowing he will be so well looked after.
My Labrador loves it here, he loves playing, swimming, and smelling everything. There is ample opportunities for that here.
Great place for the dog and Niamh is wonderful with them
Thank you 😊 …

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.

Our puppy goes to this daycare a bit longer than a month ago and he ADORES it. He pulls us in the morning as soon as he gets the scent. The staff is AMAZING. We considered this place for our puppy so he could socialise and also so we could go to work without feeling guilty of leaving him alone. I couldn't recommend this place more.
Took my Cockapoo to get groomed here and all I can say is avoid at all costs. He looks like a different dog in the most terrible way. He always gets a short trim in the place I usually go to (was unfortunately booked up!) but this is beyond unacceptable. To shave him down completely? You should be ashamed to call this a groom and charge 60 euro on top of it.
Declan is an excellent groomer; my dogs love him. I highly recommend this place.
Highly recommend, my 2 dogs love going to school every morning!! Declan and the crew are fantastic 😍 …
Great experience all round, have been admiring my dog Linus since, super cute cut :)
Our dog loves going to Cheeky Pups. Staff are very friendly and understanding of every dog.
Always happy with the grooming from cheeky pups. Never any issues and my dog always comes out happy and fresh.
I can’t recommend Declan and his team of dog whisperers enough! Every time I pick Lucy up from her doggy day care she is panned out from playing the entire day. She absolutely loves spending time there and i am happy that I can drop her off knowing she is in good hands. Thank you for taking care of my Lus Lus
Declan is an absolute gentleman and did a wonderful job, grooming my dog Maggie. She looks fantastic. Thanks to all the team at Declan’s Cheeky Pups
I took my dog Milo (Labrador) here and was extremely pleased with the service provided, as I am very picky over who watches over my dog (very protective)! Needless to say, I could tell that this place is filled with compassion, genuine care of animals, and provide a very professional service. Particularly convenient if located in the area, I have also tried several places and found this the best animal care service in the Cork area.

Our mixed breed 2.5 year old dog Dusty is a member of Creedons doggie daycare since he was a young pup. He is addicted to it. He gets so excited when I drop him off. I love seeing the photos of him on the seesaw, outdoor area or waiting patiently for treats. As a high energy dog, it’s just what he needs. He always has a great day.
It's great. The puppy is extremely happy there. The only problem is the smell. I know it's tough to get it out, but the dog smells terrible after 😬 otherwise great day care ☺️ …
Our beautiful Labrador Rocky has been using Creedons since he was 6 months . What an amazing fun ride it has been . Rocky is now 16 months and I can honestly say Creedons have made him into a wiggly happy go lucky calm doggy. Initially plan was just to use the daycare for office days. I’m now fully remote and have decided to continue to use it twice a week . We also use the hotel when we can’t bring Rocky with us. The staff are so amazing - young energetic and just such doggy lovers. Whoever loves their dog and wants somewhere secure safe and fun to stay , choose Creedons 🥰
Kayley's home away from home, I cannot say enough good things about the whole team at Creedons. Whether its daycare or overnights, she always leaves so much happier than when she arrives. Cannot recommend them enough.
Our large Golden Retriever was well cared for at Creedon's and came back with a lovely shiny coat and a happy doggy. The location is easy to find, easy to park, and drop off/pick up was a breeze. We are new to Cork, and have tried several grooming services in the Douglas area and this is definitely our choice for regular grooming for our pup.
We recently used Creedon's Dog Care for private puppy training sessions. The training with Megan was absolutely fantastic. Megan is such as asset to Creedon's. She was extremely attentive towards our Golden Retriever and answered all questions we had. Megan showed us a good number of tips etc. and would definitely recommend her as a brilliant trainer. Her very helpful follow-up notes on each of the sessions we great. Excellent service
I would like to thank Creedons for Millie’s successful first spa day! From the onset she was treated lovingly and gently and my nerves were very well managed. She was exhausted at the end of the day, a happy puppy. It gave her a safe and pleasant experience where it could have been traumatising for a young puppy like her. It makes our next visit one of many more. Looking forward to booking for next month.
We have been using Creedons for student dog grooms for quite a while now. It’s been excellent on every visit. We have two large dogs that we would otherwise struggle to keep groomed without the reduced rate student grooms. The dogs are there for a full 3 hours. They are relaxed, happy and beautiful at the end but most importantly their ears and nails are tended to with no distress, and these are so important for their well-being. Without this service we would have less groomers qualifying with hands on experience. While it’s important to remember that these are student grooms and there may be tiny issues that need improvement, all of the students are supervised by very experienced teachers so the dogs are in good hands at all times. Excellent service.
Our dog absolutely loves going to Creedons Dogcare. He has been going for 9 months now and still bounds in the door all excited. Staff are amazing with the dogs and we know he is being very well cared for. He comes home exhausted from a day of fun. We've also used their grooming service and we're very happy with the results.
I have a Samoyed who usually gets groomed every 6-8 weeks. I moved and found Creedons grooming college when searching for a new groomer and I’m delighted I took the chance. The students all seemed very kind at drop-off and the groomer my dog had (Eimear, I think) was so lovely and really listened to my requests. These students have obviously been trained to a high level and it shows. Grooming a Samoyed is not an easy task because he has so much hair but he came out looking like he went to any fully-qualified groomer. Can’t wait to bring him back!
